One month into the Russia-Ukraine conflict, it is still unclear when and how this crisis will end.

Fighting has been going on in various parts of Ukraine for weeks, showing little sign of a turning point. Russia and Ukraine have held four rounds of peace talks and a meeting between their foreign ministers, without achieving a decisive breakthrough. And there have been mounting concerns about the humanitarian situation in Ukraine. 

Meanwhile, the United States and its allies have been escalating sanctions against Russia. Moscow has hit back with a series of countermeasures.
