“Today we do not see a big danger at the borders,” he said at a briefing, quoted by TASS.

There is also no large concentration of foreign military personnel, Danilov added.

"Today we do not see any threats to open aggression from the Russian Federation," said the head of the National Security and Defense Council.

On December 14, Danilov noted that the number of Russian soldiers who, according to him, are at the border, does not pose a threat to Ukraine.

As Dmitry Polyansky, Deputy Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation to the UN, noted, the problem of Russia's “invasion” of Ukraine exists only in the minds of a number of politicians, and it must die there.

Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said that Western media reports that Russia allegedly used the crisis on the Polish-Belarusian border to prepare for an "invasion" of Ukraine is a myth.
