NATO said Thursday it saw no sign of any significant withdrawal of Russian troops from the Ukrainian border, despite the Kremlin saying President Vladimir Putin had ordered thousands to pull back.

“We would welcome the withdrawal of Russian troops on the border with Ukraine, as this would be a step in the right direction. But for the moment, we have not seen major and significant movements yet,” a NATO official told AFP.
