U.S. says Russia adds air defense systems inside Ukraine
(MENAFN- Jordan News Agency) The United States on Wednesday evening accused Russia of building up air defense systems inside eastern Ukraine and of involvement in training exercises of pro-Russian separatists in the area in breach of a European-brokered cease-fire agreement.
"This is the highest amount of Russian air defense equipment in eastern Ukraine since August," State Department spokeswoman, Marie Harf, said in a statement.
She said the increasingly complex nature of the training exercises "leaves no doubt that Russia is involved." "The training has also incorporated Russian UAV's (unmanned aerial vehicle), an unmistakable sign of Russian presence," Harf added.
"After maintaining a relatively steady presence along the border, Russia is sending additional units there," Harf said, adding that the increase gives Russia its largest presence on the border since October.
