Reuters source close to the Kremlin: the gathering of troops to the border with Ukraine is a show of force, not preparation for war
The pulling of Russian troops to the border with Ukraine is a show of force, not a preparation for armed conflict. This is reported by Reuters, citing a source close to the Kremlin and to the separatists of Donbass. “Moscow is doing this openly, deliberately allowing tanks to be detected during the daytime. This is not how they prepare for war, it’s just a show of strength,” the source said.
