Security situation
The likelihood of a significant escalation as of today continues to be assessed as low, Defence Minister Oleksiy Reznikov has said.
Ukrainian intelligence continued to monitor the activity of Russian troops along the Ukrainian state border, in Belarus and in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine - in the self-proclaimed Donetsk and Luhansk people's republics and Crimea. Intensive exchange of information with international partners continues. The situation has so far been as previously predicted, he added.
"Do not trust the apocalyptic forecasts. Different capitals calculate different scenarios, but Ukraine is ready for any scenario. Today Ukraine has a powerful army, unprecedented international support and the faith of Ukrainians in their state. It is the enemy that should fear us, not other way around," Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said.

To be continued."
