Kiev seeks clarification on potential Russia sanctions

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba asked on Saturday Western nations to specify what sanctions they would impose on Russia in case it launched military action on his country.

Kuleba told The Washington Post that the lack of explanation on the matter makes Kiev doubt the United States, the United Kingdom, and the European Union would truly support it in case of Moscow’s invasion.

Earlier this week, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov also accused the West of deliberately attributing to the rise in tensions between his country and Ukraine just to provoke Kiev.
