Lithuania is to provide Ukraine's armed forces with some military aid to help them in the fight against pro-Russian armed groups in the east of the country, Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko said on Monday, Nov 24, according to Reuters.

"We have agreed on supplies of concrete elements of concrete armaments for the Ukrainian armed forces," Poroshenko said after talks with Lithuanian President Dalia Grybauskaite.

"This is real help," he said.
