Bridget Brink, the U.S. ambassador to Ukraine, said on Wednesday that Russia had shown weakness by announcing a mobilization of its military reserves and setting out referenda in Russia-occupied territories in Ukraine, APA reports citing Reuters.

"Sham referenda and mobilization are signs of weakness, of Russian failure," Brink said on Twitter.

"The United States will never recognize Russia's claim to purportedly annexed Ukrainian territory."
