Russia is gradually reducing the number of troops stationed near its border with Ukraine, a Kiev official said on Monday.

"In recent days, the Russian forces have been gradually withdrawing from the border," the spokesman for the Ukrainian defence ministry's general staff, Oleksiy Dmytrashkivskiy, told the AFP news agency in a telephone interview.

Dmytrashkivskiy said he could not confirm how many soldiers the drawdown involved or the number of troops still stationed at Russia's border with its former Soviet satellite.

But an analyst with Kiev's Centre for Military and Political Studies, Dmytro Tymchuk, said that his sources had told him that Russia had only 10,000 soldiers remaining near the border as of Monday morning.
