“If Russia pursues the same course as in recent weeks, it will be a disaster not only for Ukraine, but also for Moscow,” she emphasized. “We see this as a threat that will not only change relations between the EU and the Russian Federation, but will also cause significant damage to Russia.”
“The territorial integrity of Ukraine cannot be discussed,” Angela Merkel added, arguing that the situation on the Crimean peninsula was incomparable to what happened in Kosovo, a province of Serbia that declared independence in 2008.
