Vladimir Putin has warned European leaders that Ukraine's delays in

Pro-Russian separatists are holed up in official buildings in Donetsk and Luhansk, eastern Ukraine.

Protesting against Russia's annexation of Crimea last month, PACE suspended Russia's voting rights as well as Russian participation in election observer missions.
