MOSCOW (Sputnik) - The closer US troops are to Russia's borders, the more fully Russia must build its security, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Wednesday, commenting on the deployment of the 101st US Airborne Division in Romania.
"The close US troops are to our borders, the greater the danger is for us," Peskov told reporters, adding that based on this, Russia will build a policy of ensuring its own security.
Such movements of US troops near the borders of Russia "do not lead to the strengthening of predictability and stability" in the region, the official added.
