US Knows Lethal Military Aid in Ukraine to Be Used Against Civilians:Expert / Sputnik International
As the US is debating whether it should send lethal military aid to Ukraine, some political analysts say current claims that Washington is only providing Kiev with non-lethal military assistance are nothing more than a red herring, because that aid is also being used for lethal purposes.
MOSCOW, November 22 (Sputnik) — Former US President George W. Bush's National Security Advisor Stephen Hadley has called on the CIA to provide lethal military assistance to the Ukrainian government.
So far, the White House has officially relegated support to non-lethal assistance despite Kiev’s requests for lethal military aid.
However, some political analysts believe that all this talk about lethal aid and non-lethal aid ignores the fact that the non-lethal aid that the US has been giving Ukraine has been used in a lethal context.
