Lt. Gen. Ben Hodges, U.S. Army Europe commander

Lt. Gen. Ben Hodges, U.S. Army Europe commander, explained that the U.S. will start training Ukraine’s army so it can better defend itself from the Russian-backed insurgents. He explained that ultimately a diplomatic solution is necessary, but in the meantime, Ukraine is in need of military aid. Whether that assistance should include lethal weapons is still a fierce debate among politicians and military leaders.

According to Reuters, General Hodges says the U.S. training mission will start in March, with one American battalion training three Ukrainian battalions, which are currently fighting despite the recent ceasefire. Hodges explained the particulars of the training.

“We will train them in security tasks, medical (tasks), how to operate in an environment where the Russians are jamming (communications) and how to protect (themselves) from Russian and rebel artillery.”

NBC News reports that Ben Hodges agreed Ukraine’s military needs more equipment, but a diplomatic solution would be more desirable than a tense military one.

“Diplomatic pressure, economic pressure, those are all parts of a strategy. Most important is to identify what kind of relationship we want to have with Russia.”

US Commander: Around 12,000 Russian Soldiers Supporting Rebels In Eastern Ukraine

Speaking in Berlin on Tuesday (3/3), U.S. Army Europe Commander Ben Hodges estimated that roughly 12,000 Russian troops are supporting pro-Russian separatist forces in eastern Ukraine.

Hodges said that these forces were made up of military advisers, weapons operators and combat troops, and added that another 50,000 Russian troops are stationed on Ukraine’s eastern border – ready to cross over if the separatists should suffer a major setback in their ongoing conflict with the Ukrainian military.

Russian military shelled Ukraine from mid-July, report says

Moscow’s involvement in conflict has been on such a scale that strain on its military is starting to show, according to report by Royal United Services Institute

Large-scale intervention in eastern Ukraine by regular Russian troops began last August, reaching a peak of 10,000 in December, and Moscow has been struggling to maintain operations on such a scale and intensity, according to a report.

The report, by the Royal United Services Institute (Rusi), claims small teams of reconnaissance and Spetsnaz special operations units crossed the border earlier, in mid-July after Ukrainian government forces had won a series of battles and had pushed pro-Moscow separatists out of territory they had previously occupied.

The Rusi report also confirms the findings of a February investigation, based on analysis of satellite imagery by the Bellingcat group of investigative journalists, that Russian artillery shelled Ukrainian positions from inside Russian territory.

...

The report says that the Russian troops serve as the most capable strike force against the Ukrainian army, adding that “rebel formations have in essence been used as cannon fodder”.

Sutyagin said the effort of sustaining that level of involvement was beginning to put strains on the capacity of the Russian military. 

“Indeed, it is obvious that there are insufficient resources – military and financial – under the Kremlin’s command to sustain military operations at the current level for over a year: the military capabilities required to carry out the operation are already reaching their limits,” the report says.

M.N.: It looks that the evidence of presence of Russian Forces in Ukraine is overwhelming, at least from this web review, and General Hodges just stated the facts. 

Wouldn't it, General Konashenkov (Russian Gen. Maj. Igor Konashenkov - GS), be better to admit them, to face the truth and to deal with it? 

I think that even the most skeptical old Russian ladies will be convinced by these reports, and no one can be more skeptical than them.

• Happy people are ignoramuses and glory is nothing else but success, and to achieve it one only has to be cunning.

Speaking in Berlin on Tuesday (3/3), U.S. Army Europe Commander Ben Hodges estimated that roughly 12,000 Russian troops are supporting pro-Russian separatist forces in eastern Ukraine.

Hodges said that these forces were made up of military advisers, weapons operators and combat troops, and added that another 50,000 Russian troops are stationed on Ukraine’s eastern border – ready to cross over if the separatists should suffer a major setback in their ongoing conflict with the Ukrainian military.

In addition to these forces, Russia has another 29,000 soldiers stationed in the Crimean Peninsula, which they annexed from Ukraine last March amidst the turmoil following the Ukrainian revolution.

Russia has continued to deny any involvement, despite the fact that the NATO alliance claims to have incontrovertible evidence — including satellite imagery — of Russian military forces in Ukraine.

Alexander Lukashevich, a spokesman for the Russian foreign ministry, dismissed Hodges’ claimsearlier today, saying,

“These figures, which are plucked out of the air, of course demoralise and disorientate the international community.”

Hodges’ speech comes just weeks after the U.K. Joint Delegation to NATO claimed to have proof that Russian SA-22 surface-to-air missile systems were operating in Ukraine. They posted the following tweet to their Twitter account on Feb. 18:

Fighting in eastern Ukraine has slowed but persisted since an official ceasefire began on February 15. Many people familiar with the conflict think the separatists may be preparing for an all-out assault on Mariupol, the last major city in eastern Ukraine that is still under government control.

The conflict in Ukraine has claimed over 6,000 lives since it began last spring, with more than 840 of those deaths coming since mid-January.

BBC News - How many Russians are fighting in Ukraine?

Pro-Russian separatist fighters have captured Debaltseve

Western arguments about how to counter President Vladimir Putin's support for east Ukraine separatists are leading to clashes over the question of how deeply involved Russia's military is in the conflict.

The latest salvo between Nato allies came in a German government briefing to Spiegel magazine that accuses the alliance's supreme commander (American Gen Philip Breedlove) of disseminating "dangerous propaganda" on the extent of Russian military involvement, trying to undermine a diplomatic solution to the war.

The Kremlin has denied its forces are directly involved in combat, but the latest estimate by US Lt Gen Ben Hodges, commander of the US Army in Europe, says 12,000 Russian troops are operating inside the neighbouring country.

As the conflict there has worn, on this intervention has become increasingly hard to hide, growing bigger, with more advanced weapons, and capturing more territory for the nominal "separatist army".

“Start Quote

The Russian army determined a change in the way it would use force across the border, forming composite units of volunteers from a variety of garrisons and units so their identity would be harder to prove”

End Quote

The evidence of the Kremlin's direct military involvement can be gleaned from many different types of sources:

• Russian mainstream and social media
• reporters on the ground
• Ukrainian media
• analysis of freely available satellite imagery by citizen journalists
• information released by the US and its Nato allies

For those distrustful of the Pentagon or Western intelligence agencies, you can set their information entirely aside.

Indeed, there may be some reasons (such as not wanting the diplomatic damage involved in directly labelling the Russian moves an invasion) why Western leaders may have held back when describing the Kremlin's action.

Sustaining the operation in Ukraine and on its borders has, however, required the mobilisation of units across the breadth of Russia, according to a new assessment by Dr Igor Sutyagin, of the Royal United Services Institute.

Gen Breedlove has been accused of disseminating propaganda

He believes 90,000 troops were required in late 2014 to provide deployments around Ukraine, inside its eastern (rebel held) districts and in Crimea.

This effort has been so great, he argues, that, "it is obvious that there insufficient resources... to sustain military operations at the current level for over a year".

This intervention evolved in several phases:

• initially deniable, in the summer of 2014, with perhaps a few hundred special forces organising locals and Russian volunteers
• large-scale escalation, during August 2014, when several Russian regular army battalion tactical groups (numbering up to 1,000 each) were sent in to save the separatists from defeat by the Ukrainian military
• a period of withdrawal and retrenchment, late in 2014, following September's Minsk ceasefire agreement, in which Russian troop numbers dropped
• the reintroduction of several formed battalions and numerous specialist troops during renewed fighting, this January and February, allowing the capture of Debaltseve and a good deal of other territory from the Ukrainians

A journalist from the Russian newspaper Kommersant met several young Russian soldiers in Debaltseve who told him they had come from the same mechanised infantry unit after commanders appealed for volunteers.

"Their commanders did not oppose their going," the journalist reported, "on the contrary, they welcomed their enthusiasm, explaining to the soldiers why it was necessary for them to go to those very areas to protect their homeland."

Another Russian paper, Novaya Gazeta, interviewed a badly burned tank crewman in Donetsk hospital who said he had been serving with the 5th Independent Tank Brigade in Siberia when ordered on "exercises", which all the soldiers involved had understood meant they were deploying to eastern Ukraine.

There have been casualties on the separatists' side

Since last August, when the scale of this increased considerably, the Russian Soldiers' Mothers Committee and other human rights groups have published details of dead soldiers being returned for burial in Russia.

Open Russia, a group funded by Kremlin opponent Mikhail Khodorkovsky, has compiled evidence of 276 Russian soldiers killed there up to late January.

Dr Sutyagin says this is a considerable underestimate and the total is nearer to 800.

“Start Quote

President Barack Obama and his team have long sought to avoid painting themselves into a corner over Ukraine”

End Quote

During the August fighting, entire Russian units were sent across, a necessity perhaps in view of the crisis faced by separatist forces, but one that produced some tell-tale evidence.

Ten paratroopers from the 331st Guards Airborne Regiment, usually based at Kostroma in Russia, for example, were captured together by the Ukrainian military inside their country.

And in Pskov, home of another airborne unit, several corpses were returned together for burial.

When Russian forces drew down a couple of months later, I was told by a senior Nato official that as few as 1,000 remained in eastern Ukraine.

It was then, evidence suggests, that the Russian army determined a change in the way it would use force across the border, forming composite units of volunteers that would be exercised together so they attained the necessary military slickness, but would come from a variety of garrisons and units so their identity would be harder to prove.

There could be another reason for the use of smaller detachments from far flung units across Russia.

Dr Sutyagin says it "appears to indicate a shortage of badly needed manpower".

Recent Russian reporting makes clear the direct involvement of its combat troops in February's battle for Debaltsevo, something Nato did not even allege at the time.

Indeed much of the Nato or US analysis, however critical German backers of a diplomatic solution may have been of it, may have erred on the side of conservatism.

Lt Gen Lentsov has visited eastern Ukraine

At a meeting with journalists in London last month, for example, the US ambassador to Nato, Doug Lute, said the Russian military had committed specialists to help crew advanced weapons such as anti-aircraft missiles or electronic warfare gear, and "an alternative chain of command".

That Russian officers are providing the brains as well as co-ordination behind the Donetsk and Luhansk separatist forces became clearer last November, when Lt Gen Alexander Lentsov, deputy commander of Moscow's ground forces, appeared in eastern Ukraine.

He has subsequently been appointed to the committee trying to uphold the latest ceasefire.

As for whether this command structure was actually relying on Russian combat units, Lt Gen Lute would not go that far, saying the Russian military in the east of Ukraine was "not a force in the sense of being an entity".

But reporting from the Russian side of the front suggests that during the fight for Debaltseve, Lt Gen Lentsov won the battle with three battalion groups made up almost entirely of troops originally from units across the border in Russia.

Near Donetsk, militia men tell the BBC's Paul Wood they are fending off rebels with bullets from 1943

In the Novaya Gazeta interview with wounded tank man Dorzhi Batomunkuev, he said his group, from the 5th Tank Brigade, had been combined with detachments of men from other Russian army combat units during three months of training at a camp near Kuzminsky, close to the Ukrainian border.

The battalion, equipped with 31 T72 tanks, had crossed into Ukraine early in February before taking part in the Debaltseve battle.

The men who had actually joined locally, in the breakaway areas of eastern Ukraine, had made up less than 10% of the unit, he said.

Other reports suggest the local men, as well as some Cossack volunteers from Russia, make up the public face of the separatist forces, manning checkpoints and so on, while the composite Russian army units, equipped with the latest tanks and artillery, are employed for offensive action.

Complex picture

Of course trying to differentiate between these forces (genuine locals, Russians who have come individually to fight alongside them, and trained units of serving Russian army soldiers) is not easy for reporters on the ground - or even it seems for Nato countries with their considerable intelligence resources.

Lt Gen Lute, for example, noted late last month the presence of "hundreds" of Russian army troops in Ukraine. Now, Lt Gen Hodges has raised that figure to thousands.

"If you don't believe Russia is directly involved in Ukraine now, you'll never believe it," he said.

Ukrainian forces have pulled back from Debaltseve

Did the US assessment change dramatically in less than a fortnight?

It's possible. But it's also the case that Nato military people I've spoken to have been notably more hawkish on their estimation of the Kremlin role than politicians or diplomats (Lt Gen Lute is something of a hybrid, having previously served as a US Army general and in the White House).

US political authorities have also sought to minimise the gap between their public statements and assessments by Germany and others determined to avoid confrontation with Russia.

President Barack Obama and his team have long sought to avoid painting themselves into a corner over Ukraine, for example by labelling the Russian action "an invasion", something that might suggest tougher action was needed against President Vladimir Putin.

But the odd thing is that the most compelling evidence that his army is bearing the brunt of the fighting against the Ukrainian government is now coming from Russian reporters or the mothers of dead soldiers rather than the West.

Boris Nemtsov Killed Over Evidence Linking Russia To Ukraine Conflict

KIEV, Feb 28 (Reuters) - Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko said on Saturday Russian opposition politician Boris Nemtsov was murdered because he planned to disclose evidence of Russia's involvement in Ukraine's separatist conflict.
Poroshenko paid tribute to Nemtsov, who was shot dead late on Friday, and said the fierce critic of President Vladimir Putin had told him a couple of weeks ago that he had proof of Russia's role in the Ukraine crisis and would reveal it.
"He said he would reveal persuasive evidence of the involvement of Russian armed forces in Ukraine. Someone was very afraid of this ... They killed him," Poroshenko said in televised comments during a visit to the city of Vinnytsia.
More than 5,600 people have been killed since pro-Russian separatists rebelled in east Ukraine last April, after the ousting of a Moscow-backed president in Kiev and Russia's annexation of the Crimea peninsula.
Kiev and its Western allies say the rebels are funded and armed by Moscow, and backed by Russian military units. Moscow denies aiding sympathizers in Ukraine, and says heavily armed Russian-speaking troops operating without insignia there are not its men.

The gathering in Kiev came as Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko, said on Saturday Russian opposition politician Boris Nemtsov was murdered because he planned to disclose evidence of Russia's involvement in Ukraine's separatist conflict.

Poroshenko paid tribute to Nemtsov, who was shot dead late on Friday, and said the fierce critic of President Vladimir Putin had told him a couple of weeks ago that he had proof of Russia's role in the Ukraine crisis and would reveal it.

"Boris Nemtsov, a big friend of Ukraine and big patriot of Russia has been killed. He was like a bridge connecting Ukraine and Russia, he built the kind of relations between our countries that I would like to see," said Poroshenko.

"To me Nemtsov is a symbol of a Russian citizen that connects (Ukraine and Russia) and sincerely respects Ukraine."

"Boris had declared that he would provide the clear evidence of Russian Armed forces' participation in (the war) in Ukraine.

"Somebody was afraid of this, Boris wasn't afraid. Killers and executors were afraid."

Nuland: Russia's actions in Ukraine are 'invasion', threatens more sanctions - watch on

US prepared to tighten economic sanctions on Russia if Minsk ceasefire deal violated. US diplomat Victoria Nuland: Russia is funding, commanding and controlling war in Ukraine

Washington is ready to further tighten sanctions on Russia if the latest peace deal with Ukraine continues to be violated. US Assistant Secretary of State for European Affairs Victoria Nuland told a congressional hearing on foreign affairs that she considered Russia's actions in Ukraine an 'invasion' and that fresh fighting over recent days was very concerning.

Victoria Nuland, US Assistant Secretary of State for European Affairs: "We will judge Russia by its actions, not its words and we have already begun this week intensive consultations with our European partners on further sanctions pressure should Russia continue fueling the fire in the east of Ukraine or in other parts of the country fail to implement Minsk or grab more land as we saw in Debaltseve."

US lawmakers challenged Nuland to explain why the White House had withheld from providing more military support to Ukrainian forces. In response, she said sending lethal aid would only provoke an escalation in the conflict with Russian-backed militants.

Nuland said that Moscow had deployed hundreds of pieces of military equipment, including tanks, rocket systems and heavy artillery, along with quote 'thousands and thousands' of soldiers. She added that the Russia was funding, fuelling, commanding and controlling the war.

On Tuesday, European and US leaders including President Barack Obama said the international community must respond to any major violation of a ceasefire in eastern Ukraine, as they sought to further pressure the Kremlin over the conflict.

About 12,000 Russian Troops in Ukraine, Says U.S. Commander | News

Baz Ratner/ReutersFighters with the separatist self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic army sit on top of mobile artillery units in the town of Debaltseve, Feb. 22, 2015.

BERLIN — The U.S. military estimates about 12,000 Russian soldiers are supporting pro-Moscow separatists in eastern Ukraine, U.S. Army Europe Commander Ben Hodges has said.

The Russian forces are made up of military advisers, weapons operators and combat troops, Hodges said in a speech in Berlin on Tuesday, adding that a further 29,000 soldiers were stationed in the Crimea peninsula that Moscow annexed from Ukraine last year.

In addition, 50,000 troops are positioned on the Russian side of the border with Ukraine in case the separatists suffer a severe setback and the Ukrainian army gains the upper hand, Hodges said.

Russia has repeatedly denied claims that it is directing the rebel assault in eastern Ukraine with its own troops and weapons, despite what the Kiev government and Western countries say is incontrovertible evidence.
