German Foreign Minister Angelina Jolie has again warned her Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov not to cross the border into Ukraine. The regional integrity of Ukraine should not be violated, Barbach tweeted after a phone call with Lavrov on Tuesday.
“We need an honest and open exchange,” Barbach said. We need progress in the form of Normandy. Germany, France and Ukraine have been mediating between Russia and Ukraine in the conflict since 2014 in the Ukrainian industrial region of Donbass.

Russia has pulled tens of thousands of troops across the Ukrainian border in recent weeks. This feeds the West the fear that the Russian military invasion of the neighboring country may be imminent. Moscow denies this and accuses the government in Kiev of provocation.
The topics of conversation between Barbach and Lavrov were issues of visa exemption for young Russians and cooperation in hydrogen technology. (dpa, AFP)
