Brussels - KUNA
EU Foreign Ministers meeting Monday expressed "deep concern" at the situation and the continuing political crisis in Ukraine and said the EU is ready to respond quickly to any deterioration on the ground."The EU invites Ukraine to reach out for international mechanisms for crisis resolution. A new and inclusive government, constitutional reform bringing back more balance of powers, and preparations for free and fair presidential elections would contribute to bringing Ukraine back on a sustainable path of reforms," they said in a statement.The statement called on all actors to refrain from violence and dissociate themselves from radical actions. The authorities should undertake all necessary measures to respect and protect the Ukrainian citizens' fundamental rights. Any demonstrations should be pursued by peaceful means, it said.
