Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council Danilov said that Kiev does not see the prerequisites for the "invasion of Russia"

“We understand the risks that exist in our country, but the situation is absolutely under control.

Moreover, today we do not see that a large-scale Russian offensive can take place either on the 16th or on the 17th.

We do not foresee this, we do not see this, ”TASS quoted him as saying.

Russian presidential aide Yuri Ushakov said earlier that the hysteria about Russia's alleged "invasion" of Ukraine had reached its climax.

In December, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that Russian troops were deployed on the territory of the country and did not threaten anyone.

The Kremlin emphasized that Russia was not going to attack anyone.
