WASHINGTON: US President Barack Obama said Ukraine did not need additional military assistance to help fight insurgents in the eastern part of the country but a Russian invasion would raise “a different set of questions.”
“Well keep in mind that the Russian army is a lot bigger than the Ukrainian army. So the issue here is not whether the Ukrainian army has some additional weaponry,” Obama said, noting that the separatists had not been able to match the Ukrainian army’s strength so far despite causing a lot of violence.
