On Tuesday, the Pentagon called on Moscow “to make their intentions more clear as to what they’re doing with this array of forces along the border.” Earlier, the U.S. European Command raised its watch level for Ukraine to potential imminent crisis, its highest level of alert. Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said Tuesday armed forces would conduct more than 4,000 exercises in April aimed at testing their “combat readiness.” He added that the drills would take place across Russia and involve all branches of the forces.
