Russia urges Ukraine to halt military preparations to avert civil war


The Russian Foreign Ministry urged Ukraine to halt any interior military preparations, which could instigate a civil war in the country, the ministry was quoted as saying on its Facebook.com account.

"According to our information, units of the Interior troops and Ukraine's national guards as well as militants from the illegal armed formation 'The Right Sector' are being amassed in the southeastern parts of Ukraine and in the city of Donetsk," the ministry said.

"We are particularly concerned that the operation involves some 150 American mercenaries from a private company Greystone Ltd., dressed in the uniform of the [Ukrainian] special task police unit Sokol," the ministry said.
