Russia began to withdraw its troops at the Ukrainian border, saying that the military exercise was over for them.
The troops of the Russian Southern and Western Military District, whose participation in the military exercise on the territory of Russia ended, have started preparing to return to their stations, Igor Konasenkov, the spokesman of the Russian Ministry of Defense, announced on Tuesday in Moscow.
The first train trains and truck convoys will leave for the garrisons on Tuesday. Upon the announcement, the ruble began to strengthen. In recent weeks, several NATO countries have accused Moscow of gathering forces near the Ukrainian border for the purpose of invading Ukraine, which the Russian side described as untrue.
Konasenkov also announced that military attachés accredited in Minsk will be able to participate as observers at the Obuz-Leshnevsky firing range in the final stage of the Allied Resolve - 2022 military exercise in Belarus on February 19.

The world may not even be a day old!
