Russian troops in Ukraine 'an act of aggression'
SATURDAY 30 AUGUST 2014
Ukraine President Petro Poroshenko calls on the EU for an "adequate reaction", saying Russia has thousands of troops and hundreds of tanks in Ukraine.
The EU is preparing the "next level of sanctions" against Russia as Ukraine rails against the presence of Russian troops on its soil.
But European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso said he did not want "a new cold war" that would be detrimental to all of Europe.
