You must be talking about these satellite pictures of Russian tanks being parked outside their permanent barracks. Really scary!

And which recent escalation do you mean exactly?

Thanks for putting words in my mouth, but no, that is not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about what has recently been reported as 190,000 troops. Literally none of the articles cited by you or your friend have those kinds of figures.

So to recap:

The Rostov base has nothing to do with anything
a satellite picture has nothing to do with anything
The timeline of previous buildups have nothing to do with anything.

These are all small-minded derails. There is a substantial new troop presence at a scale without recent precedent and you're just trying to change the subject. You're continuing to waste my time and yours, which I'm guessing is the goal here.

Yes a lot has been reported, but actual proof is never given. Thats probably why you didnt bother linking any sources for your claims.
