"Breaking All Its Promises To World On Ukraine": Germany Slams Russia

Germany said that "with its decision, Russia is breaking all its promises to the world community".

Russia is reneging on its engagements to the global community through its recognition of rebel-held areas in east Ukraine as independent, German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock said Monday.
