NEW YORK (Reuters) - German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble said on Wednesday that the United States must play an important role in helping to solve the crisis in Ukraine while European resolve to come to a non-military solution remains strong.

"We will not fall back into the history of a 100 years ago that you can change with military force. For this we need the United States," Schaeuble said in answer to a question following a presentation at the Council on Foreign Relations in New York.
