John Kirby: ‘We’ve Seen No Major Changes to the Force Posture by the Russians in the Border Areas Around Ukraine’
‘There continues to be a sizable element there’
EXCERPT:
KIRBY: "We've seen no major changes to the force posture by the Russians in the border areas around Ukraine. There continues to be a sizable element there, so nothing specific to speak to, at least in a macro sense, and I would just refer you back to what Deputy Secretary Sherman said when asked about those comments. She was very clear that if the Russians are serious about de-escalating, they can start by starting to remove some of those troops, decreasing some of that force posture."
