NSDC Secretary Alexander Turchynov reported that the number of weapon and ammunition, provided by Russian troops, in Donbass is growing daily. The press-service of the National State Defense Council has reported about it.

‘We understand why Putin is against an armed UN mission that would control the border with Russia. Because only blocking the border could stop the transporting of military, weapon and ammunition from Russia to occupied areas’, Turchynov claimed in particular.

According to his words, in time of Russian-Belarusian staff exercises ‘West-2017’ Russia has demonstrated the readiness to assault: ‘The last stage of exercises was dedicated to the check of combat readiness of the nuclear triad, air, land and sea components were worked out. Thus, Putin demonstrates his readiness to conduct a powerful continental war’.
