After months of simmering conflict, thousands of Russian troops amass on Ukraine's border

Russia- backed separatists have been fighting against Ukrainian forces since 2014, but this year Ukraine says Russia has gathered nearly 80,000 troops at its border. The Russian government says it’s a reaction to what it claimed are NATO plans to push troops closer to Russia’s borders. Bill Taylor, former acting U.S. ambassador to Ukraine, joins Amna Nawaz to discuss.
