The 9,000 Russian military stationed near the border of Belarus is not enough to attack Kiev. This was stated by the head of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense Oleksiy Reznikov, quoted by the news agency Korrespondent. net.
“According to our data, there are 9 thousand representatives of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, plus equipment, equipment, including weapons, etc.,” the minister emphasizes. – But I want to say that such a contingent for those who say that there will be an attack on Kiev from the Belarusian side, sorry, it sounds ridiculous to me. But to threaten us, to frighten us, to create a situation of such a kind of environment – yes, it works. Therefore, exercises began in Pridnestrovie – so that we tense up, divert our resources with you. ”
According to Reznikov, almost 150 thousand Russian troops are concentrated near the border of Belarus, and there is no withdrawal of troops. “The units that are currently on the move can be very quickly returned to their previous locations or transferred to another site,” the minister said.
He adds that Ukraine predicted that Russian troops would not leave Belarus after the completion of joint exercises on February 20, and is also alarmed by the movement of Russian warships in the Sea of Azov.
