00:00Presidente del Ministerio reported today
00:01that some military units
00:03are leaving their positions near Ukraine.
00:06That would be good,
00:08but we have not yet verified that.
00:11We have not yet verified
00:12the Russian military units
00:13are returning to their home bases.
00:16Indeed, our analysts indicate
00:18that they remain very much
00:20in a threatening position.
00:22And the fact remains, right now,
00:24Russia has more than 150,000 troops
00:26encircling Ukraine and Belarus
00:28and along Ukraine's border.
00:31The United States is prepared no matter what happens.
00:34We are ready with diplomacy,
00:38to be engaged in diplomacy with Russia
00:40and our allies and partners
00:42to improve stability and security in Europe as a whole.
00:45And we are ready to respond decisively
00:47to Russian attack on Ukraine,
00:49which is still very much a possibility.
