Trauma in the Russian invasion of Ukraine
Trauma has affected military veterans and civilian populations exposed to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.[11][12] The prisoners who accepted these conditions were mostly individuals serving heavy sentences, thus willing to risk their lives for their freedom.It is also called the Afghan, Vietnamese or Chechen syndrome, depending on the name of the war the servicemen took part.Now we are talking about the Ukrainian military.[21] In 2023, V. Ludov was part of a panel of psychologists invited to discuss the issue for the Institute of European, Russian and Eurasian Studies of the George Washington University.[13][23] This trend is likely explained by what is referred to as the "Ukrainian syndrome," a collection of psychological, psychiatric, or pathological disorders developed by soldiers, primarily Russians, during the invasion of Ukraine.
