Ukraine’s government is drawing up plans to withdraw its troops from Crimea where Russia is steadily taking control as its armed forces seize military installations across the peninsula. Ukraine says it will seek UN support to turn Crimea into a demilitarized zone as it seeks to relocate armed forces to the mainland.
