Russia aims to bolster border security with new buffer zone
The president of Russia, Vladimir Putin, announced that the Russian armed forces are working on creating a buffer zone along the border with Ukraine. These actions aim to enhance security and include, among other things, clearing mines in the border areas, Moscow claims.
During a meeting with government members, Vladimir Putin stated that Russian troops are focusing on establishing a buffer zone along the border with Ukraine. He emphasized that these actions are targeted at suppressing focal points of enemy resistance, writes the Russian daily "Kommersant".
The president of Russia noted that in addition to military actions, work is also being done to clear mines from the border areas, which were sites of intense fighting.
This particularly pertains to areas in the Kursk, Bryansk, and Belgorod regions. Putin also commissioned the development of a program to rebuild these regions.
These efforts are part of a broader strategy aimed at stabilizing the situation on the Russian-Ukrainian border, "Kommersant" asserts.
The Russian authorities emphasize that the buffer zone is intended to provide greater security and protection against potential threats from Ukraine.
