02 April 2021The atmosphere of a new 'cold war' between Russia and the USA continues to materialize more and more: now it is the turn of the dispute over the Ukrainian and Crimean territory.
The United States supports Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity in the face of Russia's aggression in Donbas and Crimea, US President Joe Biden said today speaking with Ukrainian President Vladymyr Zelensky.
This was announced in a statement by the White House.
Biden then underlined his administration's commitment to revitalize the strategic partnership with Kiev in support of President Zelensky's plan to fight corruption and implement a reform agenda based on shared democratic values that offers justice, security and prosperity to the Ukrainian people.
Leaders then agreed that these reforms are central to Ukraine's Euro-Atlantic aspirations.
Biden and Zelensky also discussed the importance of close cooperation between the United States and Ukraine to contain the Covid-19 pandemic and strengthen democracy in the region.
Meanwhile, Moscow does not send it to say and threatens that in the event of the deployment of US troops on Ukrainian territory or a strengthening of NATO troops in neighboring countries, further measures will be necessary to ensure the security of Russia, said Putin's spokesman, Dmitri. Peskov, taken over by the Interfax agency.
"Of course this development would lead to a further increase in tensions near the Russian borders. And certainly this will require further measures from Russia to ensure its security," Peskov said according to Interfax.
Yesterday it was Zelensky himself who accused Moscow of "amassing" troops on the border of his country.
"Demonstrations of force in the form of military exercises and possible provocations along the border are common practice in Russia," the Ukrainian president denounced in a statement.
Moscow "tries to create a threatening atmosphere and put pressure" on Ukraine, Zelensky continued, calling for a new truce on the front line with pro-Russian separatists.
For his part, the spokesman for the US State Department, Ned Price, warned Moscow against "any aggressive act aimed at intimidating or threatening" Ukraine and said he was "concerned" about the "recent escalation of aggressive and provocateurs "by Russia.
