Ukraine's prime minister has visited the site in western Ukraine where U.S. paratroopers train Ukrainian national guards sharing their experience gained in Iraq and Afghanistan, conducting various drills from storming a building occupied by armed fighters to evacuating the injured under fire.
The first stage of exercises, seen also as an exchange of experience, is to last for almost two more weeks, and more drills will follow later, coached by Canadian and UK military, Ukraine Today reports.
