WARSAW, Feb 27 (Reuters) - The seizure of government buildings by armed men in Ukraine's Crimea region could lead to a regional conflict, Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski said on Thursday.

"This is a drastic step and I'm warning those who did this and those who allowed them to do this, because this is how regional conflicts begin. This is a very dangerous game," Sikorski told a news conference. (Reporting by Marcin Goettig; Writing by Karolina Slowikowska; Editing by Christian Lowe)
