Russia ready to seize Kyiv, says Ukraine's former defense chief

Russia has enough troops around Ukraine's border to seize its capital Kyiv but not enough for a full takeover and occupation, Ukraine’s former defense minister said on Sunday.



“Russia could now seize any city in Ukraine, but we still don’t see the 200,000 troops needed for a full-scale invasion,” Andriy Zagorodnyuk told The Guardian newspaper.

Underlining that he did not believe a Russian invasion is inevitable, he said the Kremlin’s intentions and strategy remain opaque.
