Russian President Vladimir Putin’s troops are poised to attack Ukraine at any time, Ukraine’s National Security and Defence Council chief Andriy Parubiy warned today. “The aim of Putin is not Crimea, but all of Ukraine… His troops massed at the border are ready to attack at any moment,” Parubiy told thousands of demonstrators gathered in central Kiev.
