Situation in Ukrainian Crimea continues to escalate despite the demand
of Ukrainian government to withdraw Russian troops and increasing Western pressure
and total refusal of the world to recognize the results of the illegitimate referendum
held on Sunday in Crimea.
Russia continues to increase its military presence deploying new troops
and heavy military technique to Crimea and along the borders with Ukraine, as
Ukrainian military deployed its forces to protect the borders and territories
of Ukraine and stop Russian military aggression.
