Over the past two weeks Russia has deployed troops to the Ukrainian border nearly doubling the force that they used to annex Crimea in 2014. The troop buildup is worrisome but the State Department is also concerned Russia is planning on blocking foreign naval ships and other vessel movement in the Black Sea. Russia claims the troops are conducting military drills in direct response to NATO actions. FOX's Trey Yingst speaks with Donald Jensen, the Director for Russia and Strategic Stability at the United States Institute of Peace, about the troop deployment and the concerns for NATO partners.
