Guardian: Reports the following reaction on the US/EU sanctions, " US rejects criticism of 'toothless' sanctions following Crimea referendum..Russia issues decree recognising Crimea as sovereign state as US and EU enact measures against 32 Russians and Ukrainians ".
Lets Get Real:
This blog is the first to be critical of President Obama and the EU, but at least lets see if these sanctions have any effect, if not then go for biting sanctions, its a signal to Moscow that the West is in the game, if Russia formally takes over the Crimea then the West should consider tougher sanctions, if there is a threat to Eastern Ukraine then we have to at least make it clear that the East is a line that Russia can not cross, yes another red line, NATO should send a couple of thousand goodwill troops to the Western border of the Ukraine, and yes a few fighter planes and tanks. If we have to punch lets make sure our fist is steel and snaps the claws of the Russian Bear.
