"Russia needs to choice whether it is open to diplomacy and to de-escalation, and if it decides otherwise we must be ready for a different state of relations with Russia in the next 10 years than we have enjoyed in the last 20 years," he said at the Lord Mayor's Easter Banquet.
"We believe Ukraine can be a bridge between East and West and be able to have good relations with Russia, but that does not entitle Russia to send in armed groups thinly disguised to spearhead the occupation of buildings in multiple Ukrainian cities," Mr Hague added.

Hague said the separatists were similar to those seen in the Crimea with those involved being "well armed, well trained, well equipped and well coordinated".
"It has all the appearances of a further gross, deliberate and premeditated violation of the independence and sovereignty of Ukraine. There has to be a clear international response."
