The situation around Ukraine has recently become aggravated due to media reports about a possible “invasion” of Russia. The Sun claimed that Russia’s “invasion” of Ukraine would take place at 3:00 Kyiv time (4:00 Moscow time) on February 16, which ultimately did not happen. At the same time, the newspaper Politico “set” a new date for the “attack” of Russian troops on Ukraine – February 20.
NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said that NATO sees no signs of a de-escalation of the situation around Ukraine and will continue to denounce Russia’s “aggressive plans”.
Moscow denies the accusations.
