The Washington Times cites the Atlantic Council for hosting an event with Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko:
Mr. Poroshenko made the comments at an evening award ceremony at The Atlantic Council in Washington.
Over the past several months, Mr. Poroshenko has continuously asked the Obama administration for military supplies capable of beating back pro-Russia separatists who are waging a war in eastern Ukraine and of staving off the occasional Russian military incursion into Ukrainian territory.
Ukraine’s “army is facing an attack from one of the biggest military power in the world,” Mr. Poroshenko said at the Atlantic Council, while acknowledging that this fact may not be enough for Ukraine to conjure the level of support that it need.
