Ukrainian forces are “fully” prepared for war according to Russia’s spy boss, who warned “humanity’s existence” could be at stake if fighting begins.
For weeks it has been reported more than 100,000 Russian forces have been based on the border between the two countries, amid growing fears Vladimir Putin will order an invasion.
But Sergei Naryshkin, head of SVR foreign intelligence and a close ally of the Russian president, says Ukraine’s preparations for battle are in “full swing”.
