Blinken: We continue to see Russian units moving toward border, not away. Risk hit

• We have not seen any pullback of Russian forces from Ukraine borders

Blinken also tweeted this at the same time:

Kremlin recognition of the so-called Donetsk and Luhansk People’s Republics as “independent” would signify Russia’s wholesale rejection of the Minsk agreements, which remain the best means to resolve the conflict in the Donbas.

There has been some risk aversion on these comments.
