Russia is emotionally in Ukraine, its troops are not, says Russian MP
by Henry Hullah NATO satellites, journalists on the ground and Ukrainian officials have all reported Russian troops in Ukrainian territory, but how much longer can Russia claim it has no military presence in Eastern Ukraine? “Russia will say that until it really has some forces on the ground.”
(…) the Russian government had not been providing weapons, such as T-72 tanks which the MP insisted came from Hungary, to separatists and also had nothing to do with the current state of Ukraine.
This is interesting because there were news about T-72s being delivered to the Czech Republic from Hungary last week, but not for Ukraine by any means. That doesn’t mean it cannot be true. Last week the Hungarian Ministry of Defence denied that Hungary has any role in arming Ukrainian government forces. That of course does not mean it cannot be true either.
