Ron Paul, the former United States congressman who campaigned for the presidency no fewer than three times, is yet again warning the White House not to increase America’s involvement in the escalating crisis in Ukraine.

Paul, a 78-year-old retired doctor who spent nearly three decades in the US Congress representing the state of Texas, has spoken out incessantly this year about the ongoing skirmish in Ukraine — especially, as of late, with regards to how the administration of US President Barack Obama has so far responded to the stand-off between separatists in eastern Ukraine and the country’s legitimate government in Kiev.
