NATO Chief Urges Allies to Keep Russian Sanctions

[Navarro]

"NATO’s chief urged allies to maintain sanctions against Russia ... Stoltenberg said cease-fire violations have increased massively in eastern Ukraine, with hundreds of explosions daily from military equipment banned under the Minsk cease-fire accord ... He said a four-way meeting last week between Russia, Ukraine, France and Germany did not make headway ... Germany’s foreign minister said he expects European sanctions against Russia to be automatically rolled over next year ... unclear whether U.S. President-elect Donald Trump will take a softer line on Russia. And in France, top presidential contender Francois Fillon supports lifting the sanctions."
