After a buil-up day and high fear of a full-scale war, Russian forces were deployed along the Ukrainian border back to their base, the AFP news agency quoted the Russian Ministry of Defense.
South and Western Military District Units … will start moving to their military garniss, “said a Ministry of Defense spokesman, according to AFP.
Meanwhile, right after Russian reports backed his troops, Ukraine also announced that they had managed to avoid the invasion by Russia with Western assistance. “We and our allies have succeeded in preventing Russia from further escalation. It is mid-February, and you see that diplomacy continues to work,” Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba told reporters in Kyiv.
Over the past few weeks, Russia has deployed thousands of troops around the former Soviet state, which leads to fear of invasion. Tensions are increasingly exacerbated by the Russian military who conducts military training, including near Ukraine and in Belarus. According to the United States, who has warned severe economic sanctions in Russia if it moves forward with an invasion plan, around 30,000 troops participate in training. This military drill is scheduled to run until February 20
Fear between Ukraine about the Russian invasion was palpable, especially after the teen reports dug trenches. Residents also reflect on buying gas cylinders and preparing for an evacuation plan if Putin’s troops invade the country.
The report also came right at the meeting scheduled between German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and Russian President Vladimir Putin to relieve tension in Ukraine. His conversation with Putin is the latest in intense diplomatic traits to prevent Russian leaders attack Ukraine.
Earlier this week, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu held a meeting with Putin after that he said some Russian war matches would soon be closed.
