US will not agree to the federalization of Ukraine aiming to resolve the situation in the Donbas and Crimea, said former US Ambassador to Ukraine John Herbst, reported "Interfax-Ukraine".
"Our administration has repeatedly stated that there is no connection between our diplomacy towards Syria and our diplomacy with regard to Ukraine. We believe that Ukraine should have the sovereignty and territorial integrity in Donbas and Crimea ", - said John Herbst.
