PARIS, Jan 8 (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Wednesday any future deal to end the war in Ukraine would need to build into it deterrence to prevent Russia once again attacking Ukraine.
Speaking in Paris, the outgoing Biden administration's top diplomat warned that Russian President Vladimir Putin would try to use any ceasefire in Ukraine to refit Russian forces and eventually attack Ukraine again.
