Ukraine Crisis: Russia Vows No Invasion -- BBC

Moscow has no intention of sending troops into Ukraine, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has said.

His comments came after the US and Russian presidents discussed a possible diplomatic solution to the crisis.

The US-backed plan calls for Russia to halt to its military build-up on the border with Ukraine and withdraw its troops in Crimea to their bases.

My Comment: I actually believe Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov's comments that there will be no Russian invasion in Ukraine. But .... I also believe that if the situation does deteriorate in Ukraine in which Russians are being threatened .... there will be a Russian intervention.

Reactive armor now on top. I know they know they're being photoed and will put their best foot forward, but their gear looks in really good shape, especially compared to the past.

About 20 years ago I visited my uncle at a Russian military base outside of St. Petersburg. It was a sad sight to see. Three years ago I saw a Russian military convoy outside of Moscow .... they all had new gear and the soldiers looked incredibly professional.
