Putin: Russian troops step back from Ukrainian border to regular training sites

There are no Russian troops left on the Ukrainian border, said Russian President Vladimir Putin.

"They kept telling us they were concerned about our troops on the Ukrainian border - we pulled them [the troops] back; they no longer stay on the Ukrainian border but are in their bases and at training ranges," Putin said after a meeting with his Swiss counterpart Didier Burkhalter.
