Spannend, was hier für Quellen herangezogen werden um den eigenen Standpunkt zu untermauern. Da wird auch ein Blatt wie die JW herangezogen.

Kannst ja auch alternativ MSN / ABC-News nehmen.

US warns Russian attack may be 'imminent,' Ukraine disagrees: Here's why

As the U.S. continues to warn that the threat of a Russian attack on Ukraine remains "imminent," there is one dissenting voice that has grown stronger -- Ukraine's.

From President Volodymyr Zelenskyy down, the Ukrainian government has tried to urge calm, with senior officials making clear in recent days they don't see the risks now as any more heightened than over the last eight years of Russian-stoked conflict in eastern Ukraine.

Ukrainian Deputy Defense Minister Hanna Malyar, for example, said the number of Russian troops massed on Ukraine's borders "are not enough for a full-scale invasion." Instead, Russian leader Vladimir Putin is using the troop build-up "primarily to politically blackmail the West and pressure Ukraine," she wrote in a Facebook post.

"Russia's tactical goal is provoke integral divisions in our society, sow fear and panic, to destabilize the internal situation," she added.

Ukrainian concern that fear and panic could spread, sending Ukraine's economy spiraling or creating political turmoil, has started to create divisions between the U.S. and Ukraine -- despite efforts on both sides to make clear they stand united against any Russian aggression.

"All is under control. There are no reasons to panic," Zelenskyy said in a televised address to his country Monday night -- but the speech spent more time on COVID-19 than Russia.
