Ensuring the continued security in the European Union is bound to happen together with Russia, not against it, said Minister of foreign Affairs of Germany Frank-Walter Steinmeier.

"The crisis in Ukraine has confronted us with the question of how Russia has the capability to be integrated into the international order in the future. For us Europeans this conflict still means that the permanent security in the European Union is able to only be achieved in cooperation with Moscow, and not in opposition to it, " said Steinmeier on the margins of the Munich security conference.

However, He added that Moscow must also realize that For the Russian Federation there is a good prospect " only together with Europe, and this means that Moscow should not act against Brussels.
