El presidente de Estados Unidos, Joe Biden, llamó el martes a su homólogo ruso, Vladimir Putin, a disminuir las crecientes tensiones con la vecina Ucrania, sumándose al rechazo por las tropas rusas en la frontera bilateral que genera alarma entre los aliados de la OTAN.

En una llamada telefónica con Putin, Biden “enfatizó el compromiso inquebrantable de Estados Unidos con la soberanía e integridad territorial de Ucrania”, y propuso una cumbre entre los dos líderes en un tercer país “en los próximos meses”, dijo la Casa Blanca. La acumulación en los últimos días de tropas rusas cerca de la frontera ucraniana, y en la península de Crimea que Moscú anexó en 2014, ha generado inquietud en los países occidentales.
