Ukraine's interim President Olexandr Turchynov (2nd L) speaks as Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk (2nd R), Defence Minister Igor Tenyukh (C), and unidentified high officers of the army look on during a press conference after a meeting of the National Security and Defence Council in Kiev on March 1, 2014. Ukraine's Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk said today he was "convinced" that Moscow would not launch a military offensive, after Russia's parliament approved the deployment of troops in the country. "I am convinced that Russia will not launch an intervention as this would mean war and the end of all relations between the two countries," he said in a televised address to the nation.
