  • EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell's office on Thursday slammed a fresh Russian military conscription drive in the Crimean peninsula annexed from Ukraine as "another violation of international humanitarian law". The strongly worded statement underlined European concerns as Russia stepped up troop movements on the Ukrainian border and in Crimea, along areas where separatists backed by Moscow are fighting Ukraine's forces. "Today (Thursday), the Russian Federation has launched yet another conscription campaign in the illegally-annexed Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the city of Sevastopol to draft residents of the peninsula in the Russian Federation Armed Forces," the statement said. It stressed that "the Russian Federation is bound by international law, and obliged to ensure the protection of human rights on the peninsula" and reiterated "the EU does not and will not recognise the illegal annexation" of Crimea and its main city of Sevastopol. Observers noted that Russia has in the past conducted military call-ups in the springtime. Russia annexed Crimea seven years ago, shortly after which the separatists it backs began a conflict in eastern Ukraine that continues to this day, and which the UN says has claimed more than 13,000 lives. Russia said on Thursday that it was at liberty to move its troops "within its territory" as it pleases. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said of the troop deployment: "It should not worry anyone and does not pose a threat to anyone." rmb/jz
