AP TELEVISION - AP CLIENTS ONLY Kiev - 5 Feb 2015 SOUNDBITE (English) Petro Poroshenko, Ukrainian President: “Today we are facing another growing escalation of violence by terrorists directly supporting (supported) by Moscow, their refusal to fulfil the obligation on the Minsk agreement, their barbarian attack on the civilian population which led to multiple casualties every day.” SOUNDBITE (English) John Kerry, US Secretary of State: “We talked about the largest threat that Ukraine faces today and that is Russia’s continued aggression in the east. And there is no other way to call it. We are not seeking a conflict with Russia, no one is, not President Poroshenko, not the United States, not the European Community. That’s not what this is about. We are very hopeful that Russia will take advantage of our broad-based, uniform acceptance of the notion that there is a diplomatic solution that is staring everybody in the face. That is what we want. We want a diplomatic resolution, but we cannot close our eyes to tanks that are crossing the border from Russia and coming in to Ukraine. We cannot close our eyes to Russian fighters in unmarked uniforms crossing the border and leading individual companies of so-called separatists in battle.”
