TASHKENT. May 28 (Interfax) - Any foreign troops deployed at the border in the special military operation zone will be in the strike zone of the Russian Armed Forces, Russian President Vladimir Putin said.
"Under the guise of relieving certain Ukrainian units stationed along the border in order to let them be sent to the battlefield, keeping [troops] along the borders for security purposes is nonsense and stupidity. And if they [the foreign contingents] are present there, they will also be within striking range of our Armed Forces," Putin told reporters at a press event at the end of his visit to Uzbekistan.
