Oleksandr Turchynov: The Armed Forces of Ukraine are ready to repel any provocation of the Russian occupation troops
The Armed Forces of Ukraine are ready to repel any provocation of the Russian occupation troops. This was stressed by Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine Oleksandr Turchynov while answering the journalists' questions after his visit to "Artem" State Joint Stock Holding Company.
Secretary of the NSDC of Ukraine reminded that on November 21, during the meeting of the Military Cabinet of the NSDC of Ukraine, the situation, which developed as a result of an increase in the Russian military contingent in the occupied districts of Donetsk region, was analyzed.
According to him,
Russian troops are forced to redeploy additional forces to the occupied part of
Donbas, so as not to lose control over the situation because of the confrontation
between the criminal groupings that are part of the occupation administration. "As
a result of these events, military clashes were provoked, in particular in the Krymske
area. The Armed Forces of Ukraine control the situation, but they are ready not
only to repel the provocations of Russian troops but also to improve our
positions", - Mr. Turchynov noticed.
