[VK] The movement of Ukrainian troops near Donbass is dangerous for residents of the DPR and LPR, Russian President Vladimir Putin said on November 30 during a discussion at the Russia Calling!
Answering the question about whether there is a risk of the RF Armed Forces entering Ukraine, the head of state said that a settlement is needed.
As for the threats, Putin notes, "for people living in two so far unrecognized republics - the LPR and the DPR, there are also constant threats created when [Ukrainian] military units move near their territories."
Commenting on statements from the West that military exercises are being conducted in Russia in the border area, the head of state said that the Russian side "also experiences certain concerns about the fact that large-scale exercises, including unplanned ones, are being held near its borders."
“Twenty kilometers from our border, strategic bombers flew, carrying high-precision weapons, and possibly nuclear weapons. After all, all this creates a threat for us, ”said Vladimir Putin.

Putin answered whether it is worth fearing the introduction of Russian troops into Ukraine
During the plenary session of the VTB Capital Investment Forum "Russia Calling!" Russian President Vladimir Putin answered the question whether it is worth fearing the introduction of Russian troops into Ukraine.
According to him, the possible introduction of Russian troops into Ukraine was discussed at the beginning of the year. But as we can see, this did not happen.
"The point is not whether to bring in troops or not, to fight or not to fight. The point is to improve relations to create a more equitable, sustainable development and take into account the interests of all participants in international activities," Putin said.
The Russian President stressed that if we all sincerely strive for this, no one will experience any threats.
The leader of the Russian Federation also noted that if shock systems appear on the territory of Ukraine, which will reduce the flight time to Moscow to 7-10, or even five minutes, then Moscow will be forced to respond, creating the same threats.
