This Is Not 21st Century Behavior!… Ukraine Says 100,000 Russian Troops Stationed at Border

This is absolutely not 21st Century behavior!
International law matters!

Ukraine’s top defense official told a Washington audience today that Russia has amassed 100,000 troops outside its border.
AFP reported:

Nearly 100,000 Russian forces have massed on Ukraine’s border, a top Ukrainian defense official told an American audience Thursday, giving a number far higher than US military estimates.

“Almost 100,000 soldiers are stationed on the borders of Ukraine and in the direction … of Kharkiv, Donetsk, “ Andriy Parubiy, chairman of Ukraine’s national security council, said via a webcast from Kiev.

“Russian troops are not in Crimea only, they are along all Ukrainian borders. They’re in the south, they’re in the east and in the north,” Parubiy said.

After its intervention in the Crimean peninsula, Russia is plotting to foment separatist sentiment elsewhere and Kiev fears a possible incursion in the country’s east, he told the Atlantic Council, a Washington think tank.

Parubiy said Ukraine was braced for invasion any day now.
