Ukrainian Army Rebuilds, With Allies' Help

The Ukrainian armed forces have had a baptism of fire in battles with Russian-backed separatists over the last year. But they have been unable to hold on to large swathes of territory, and Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko says they need to be rebuilt from scratch. This week, U.S. trainers began training the Ukrainian National Guard. British and Georgian forces are also running training operations. (RFE/RL’s Ukrainian Service)
