NATO Chief: New Russian Troop Buildup Seen Near Ukraine's Border -- CNN
(CNN) -- NATO has seen a "new Russian military buildup" near the border with Ukraine, NATO chief Anders Fogh Rasmussen said Thursday, a development that may alarm Kiev and the West.
Rasmussen warned that any Russian intervention across the border could prompt tougher international sanctions.
His words, in response to a question from a Russian journalist at an event in London, came a day after Ukraine's new President announced he would soon implement a unilateral cease-fire to ease the crisis in the restive eastern part of the country.

Wil the unrerst in ukraine spread to Kharkiv and Odessa?
3.
Is Russia supporting the pro russians or do they want peach with Kiev and a united Ukraine?
(1) Not enough Russian assets near the border for even a limited incursion. But that may change in the next few weeks.
(2)Kharkiv and Odessa are quiet now. My aunt lives in Kharkiv, and she tells me that a climate of fear is now everywhere. Ukraine forces are arresting anyone that they suspect is pro-Russian, and the atmosphere is very tense. Many people are not working now, and even her (my aunt's pension) comes in only intermittently.
(3) As I had said before .... Russia has adopted a wait and see position. They want negotiations .... but are expecting the worse.
