Turning to the latest on the crisis in Ukraine... U.S Secretary of State John Kerry says Russia's
violation of Ukraine's integrity has united the world in support of the Ukrainian people.
Speaking in Paris just a few moments ago following face-to-face talks with his Russian counterpart
Sergei Lavrov, Kerry said there were a number of ideas on the table to resolve the tensions,
but stressed Ukraine's territorial integrity must be respected.
Lavrov said Moscow and Western powers agreed the Ukrainian government and opposition need
to respect a EU-brokered peace deal signed late last month.
Meanwhile,... the European Union has unveiled a package of aid and grants to Ukraine's new
government worth some 15 billion U.S. dollars over the next couple of years.
