Russia's parliament has
approved a request by President Vladimir Putin to deploy Russian troops to Ukraine.
It follows discussions by
both the lower and upper house to "stabilise" the situation in
Ukrainian peninsula of Crimea.
Earlier, the Ukrainian
defence minister said Moscow had already deployed some six thousand extra
troops to Crimea.
Kiev has accused Moscow of
deliberately trying to provoke a confrontation.
