Therefore, we continue to take measures to strengthen this area along the entire length of the border with Belarus

On the border with Russia. Russia has a certain amount of forces on the other side, approximately 19-20 thousand military personnel. But if we take the entire length of the border with Russia, which is controlled by Ukraine, the forces that the enemy has in this area are not enough to carry out a second full-scale invasion
