It is worth mentioning that since the beginning of the Ukrainian Russian crisis and coinciding with

the development of war events, many caricatures embodied the crisis , the most famous of these is
that one which showing the Russian President Vladimir Putin next to the Most Famous Russian
socialists and the leaders pre-disintegration of the Soviet Union , Karl Marx, Engels, Lenin and
Stalin and Putin comes to complete the picture and indicates this caricature to the desire of Putin to
combine Ukraine , they thought this is as an attempt to back in the Soviet Union again. The Arab

world also took part in showing the impact of this crisis on the prices of commodities and the
economic repercussions that affected global markets, as they appeared in some Arab caricatures as
well. Some caricatures also showed the economic sanctions imposed on Russia by the United States

and the European Union and by showing the Russian Bear with a small game tied on its arm, and it
look as if it never care, this is actually the case in reality, where the Russian president show a big
carelessness toward those sanctions and did not prevent him from keeping what he started in Ukraine.
The Russian war continues and its repercussions at the global level are still happening, and on the
other hand the other face of the war is continues as well which is ‘The Caricature War’.
