Russia has pulled back most of its troops from the border with Ukraine, according to a U.S. defense official, as government forces continued a campaign to wipe out separatist rebels in the former Soviet Republics east.

.

A majority of the Russian forces have been withdrawn from the Ukrainian border, Rear Admiral John Kirby, a Pentagon spokesman, told reporters traveling to Singapore with U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel. About seven battalions of Russian troops, or several thousands, remain, he said. Russias withdrawal may be marred by a gas dispute. Talks with Ukraine in Berlin today wont advance, Ukrainian First Deputy Energy Minister Yuri Zyukov said yesterday.

.

Russia is unfortunately now an enemy, Zyukov said in the Ukrainian capital. It speaks in ultimatums, he said, and the only solution to the natural gas standoff is likely to be arbitration.

.

Confirmation of Russias partial withdrawal emerged hours after separatist rebels downed a military helicopter in eastern Ukraine, killing a general and 13 troops. Ukrainian forces used aviation and artillery assets to destroy the rebel unit blamed in the attack, the Interior Ministrys National Guard unit said in a statement.

.

National Catastrophe

.

Pro-Russian insurgents killed one Ukrainian soldier and wounded two in an attack on a military vehicle near the city of Izyum, in the eastern Kharkiv region, the National Guard said on its website today.

.

The Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe lost contact with a team of four monitors in the Luhansk region after it was stopped by armed men yesterday, the OSCE said in e-mailed statement. Another OSCE team was abducted on May 26.

.

The fighting since yesterday produced a new round of finger-pointing between the U.S. and Russia. The downing of the helicopter prompted a spokesman for U.S. President Barack Obama to blame outside assistance in providing weapons.
