‘There are no minor incursions’ pleads Ukraine leader after Biden remarks | Reuters

By Thomas A. Smith

BERLIN/KYIV, Jan 20 (Reuters) – Western countries sought to project unity over Ukraine on Thursday, after U.S. President Joe Biden suggested allies were split over how to react to any “minor incursion” from Russia, prompting Kyiv’s leader to plead that there was no such thing.

“We want to remind the great powers that there are no minor incursions and small nations. Just as there are no minor casualties and little grief from the loss of loved ones,” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy tweeted in English and Ukrainian, in a clear reference to Biden’s remarks.
