Let's remember, the 100,000 Russian soldiers near the Ukrainian border have been there since last April, when a military exercise had finished.

Many are 150-miles away from the border, actually. 60,000 troops were the norm until the end of the exercise, when extras remained.

The US has about 129,000 troops similarly situated near the Mexican border.

The news of the "troops massing" on the Ukraine border was leaked to the press in the end of October. Why it was a crisis in October but not in April has yet to be explained.

I don't know why someone decided to manufacture a crisis, but that's exactly what this is - a manufactured crisis, IMO.
