DAEHNHARDT, Patrícia. The crisis in Ukraine and Germany: a new paradigm in the European strategic leadership?. Relações Internacionais [online]. 2015, n.45, pp.05-24. ISSN 1645-9199.

The crisis in Ukraine confirmed Germany as the European political actor which has taken on the strategic leadership in the West's response to Russia. One year after the annexation of Crimea, and against expectations, the firm and convergent stance of Germany and its European partners continues, combining a twofold diplomacy based, first, on economic sanctions, and secondly, on the maintenance of political dialogue politician with Moscow in a conflict for which Germany insists there is no military solution. Investment in these mechanisms, through an interpretation of ‘networked security', reveals that Germany is finally following a strategic perspective in the conduct of its foreign policy, with the aim of recovering a Euroatlantic and transatlantic stable order.

Palabras clave : strategic leadership; Germany; Ukrainian crisis; European Union.
