Putin: Ukrainian Saboteurs Have Failed to Penetrate Our Borders
Russian President Vladimir Putin said at the meeting of the Federal Security Service of Russia: “It is necessary to increase the combat readiness and equipment of the border forces not only on land, but also at sea, especially in the Black Sea Is. It is necessary to increase the combat power of border forces and the effectiveness of mobile groups on land and sea, and first of all, this is related to the Black Sea.
He also said that many measures have been taken to strengthen the borders of this country, including in the war zone and the equipment of the border forces has been strengthened. According to him, Kiev is starting to use “terrorist” methods with the support of the West.
Earlier, the Russian Ministry of Defense said in a statement that the Russian armed forces continue their actions to prevent the infiltration of subversive groups and identify the Ukrainian armed forces in the border areas. Moscow reported that Ukraine has lost 40 of its military personnel in the border area near the Russian village of Kuzinka in the Belgorod region.
Vladimir Putin has asked Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB) to step up its anti-terrorist activities, recognizing that Russia faces strong opposition.
In another part of his speech, Putin also said: The recent provocative statements of representatives of Western intelligence services are similar to blackmail and an attempt to intimidate the Russian society.
According to Putin, the Federal Security Service of Russia has duties to protect constitutional order.
The Russian president also stressed that efforts to incite unrest must be strictly suppressed.
