Here is a confirmation of this from another (US) source:

former Colorado Congressman Bob Schaffer:"

RUSSIAN TROOPS IN UKRAINE"

MP Julia Tymoshenko confirmed that many of the guards are indeed Russians dressed in Ukrainian militia uniforms. They're bedecked in riot gear -- helmets, face shields, 3' riot shields, black uniforms, etc.

The presence of Russian troops here is a very serious international incident. This causes great tension between the U.S. and Russia.

Hmmm. . . .

This could get interesting.

I don't get that last sentence.

I hope the Ukranian citizens are armed, or they are going back into the Soviet Republic. This is what the Russkies did to Poland in 1946.
