NO Breakthrough in TALKS between Russia and the US - Ukraine Latest

BBC News: Reports on  the London meeting between the US Secretary of State John Kerry and the Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov to discuss the Ukraine Crisis, the article notes the following, " Russia and the US have "no common vision" on the crisis in Ukraine, Russia's foreign minister has said,.. ".

Lets Get Real: 

The Kremlin is not going to give up the Crimea, no way no chance, the problem is do they have an interest in the East of Ukraine, there have already been pro Moscow protests by protesters who want to join the Crimea and become part of Russia.    This could be a covert way for Moscow to keep its hands clean while either getting the East or keeping the Kiev Government off balance.    The West needs tough sanctions, sanctions that bite Putin on the backside and more hurts his rich friends.   This is not the time for President Obama to play nice, he has to toughen up, be POTUS, hold a big stick and not be afraid to use the power of the US.
