Vice President Joe Biden has warned that Russia faces "rising costs and
greater isolation" if it fails to respect peace deals in Ukraine.
Mr Biden, on a visit to Ukraine, said Russia continued to violate ceasefires.He was speaking after holding talks with President Petro Poroshenko.
Some 4,300 people are thought to have died in eastern Ukraine's conflict since April. Russia is regularly accused of arming separatist rebels, but its officials deny the allegations.
Mr Biden is in Kiev on the first anniversary of the start of mass protests that culminated in President Viktor Yanukovych relinquishing power.
