KYIV, Jan 19 (Reuters) - Ukraine's foreign minister Dmytro Kuleba spoke to the European Union top diplomat Josep Borrell on Wednesday, saying the cost of deterring Russia now will always be lower than the possible future price of stopping a new war.

"In our call @JosepBorrellF and I discussed ways for Transatlantic community to jointly deter Russia from further aggression," Kuleba said on Twitter.

"My message to all EU members is clear: whatever the price of deterrence now, it will always be lower than the possible future price of stopping a new war." (Reporting by Natalia Zinets and Pavel Polityuk; Writing by Pavel Polityuk; Editing by Alison Williams)
