Pentagon voices concern over new buildup of Russian troops on Ukrainian border
Pentagon spokesman John Kirby raised concern Monday about a new buildup of Russian troops on the Ukrainian border.
John Kirby told The Associated Press that Pentagon is monitoring the Ukraine region closely amid reports of Russian deployments.
“We’re aware of public reports of unusual Russian military activity near Ukraine,” Kirby told reporters.
“We’re going to continue to consult with allies and partners on this issue… As we’ve said before, any escalatory or aggressive actions would be of great concern to the United States.”
