Joe Biden: 'We can not allow Russia to redraw the map of Europe'


Show a united front to the Ukrainian crisis. This is the message launched by the US vice president on Friday in Brussels, where he met with leaders of the European institutions. Joe Biden accuses Russia continue to lead to an escalation of the conflict, and he accuses Putin of having ignored all agreements, including Minsk.


'' The United States and Europe should support each other and stand firm. We can not allow Russia to redraw the map of Europe, which is exactly what it is doing, "said Joe Biden.


"We can not compromise on the independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine, said his side the President of the European Council Donald Tusk. The EU will continue to support the Ukrainians, to help reform the country to become a modern, prosperous and democratic. ''


Biden did not mention a delivery of weapons as possible to the Ukrainian government forces, a solution in which France and Germany are opposed. The issue will be discussed at the Munich Security Conference.
