SOFIA (Reuters) - German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier said on Tuesday that a solution to the crisis in Ukraine was still a long way off, and that Ukraine will need significant support given the dire state of its economy.

"The road on which we have been and we are on, is probably the first step for calming down the situation, but we all know that we are still very far from a solution," Steinmeier said through an interpreter during a visit to Bulgaria.
