Ukraine Partially Imposes Martial Law After Russia Flare-Up

President Petro Poroshenko said martial law was needed to ready Ukraine for potential further Russian aggression amid fears Sunday’s incident near Crimea would rekindle the simmering four-year-old conflict between the two former allies. On Tuesday, he said Ukraine’s “top priority” now is the return of 23 captured sailors and three ships. While Ukraine’s Western partners blamed Russia, calls for harsher sanctions were only heard from smaller nations.
