President Vladimir Putin "must and will fail," top European Union (EU) leaders said on Friday as they agreed on new sanctions over his invasion of Ukraine, saying he was trying to bring the continent back to the age of empires and confrontations.

Russia launched its invasion by land, air and sea on Thursday following a declaration of war by Putin.
