Poroshenko says escalation in Donbas, full-scale incursion still probable
Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko says that there is a strong probability that the situation in Donbas will escalate and a full-scale incursion by the Russian army is possible.
"The probability of escalation remains high. We do not absolutely rule out a full-scale Russian invasion in all directions. We are ready. Our armed forces are ready to repel the enemy both in the east [...] and along the administrative border with Crimea," Poroshenko said while visiting Lviv region on Thursday.
