that's friend samuel romani, who's of associate fellow of the rural institute service at the royal united services institute. he joins us now via skype from oxford in the u. k. could savvy with us, sir? is russia's military build upon the border with ukraine? unprecedented as anything like this happened before? well, it's not necessarily unprecedented. there was a similar bill of that the ladder 1000 jubes class that occurred in april in may of last year. and that was a display of brinkman jeopardy, really aimed at ensuring that debt nato expansion. jack continue, allison nato forces withdrew from the region. so this might be another brinkman ship back to that hide or could be a preparation for a minor incursion or larger invasion. we have to say, all right, so, so what's different this time, as you said, has happened before without spilling into conflict? well, it's happened before, because i think that russia's calculations in the past was that brinkman ship would produce sad the out doctoral outcome. because in 2014, in 2015 the russians, astro fails to recapture all of navea garcia. t
