Obama presses Europe to keep Russia sanctions firm
President Obama plans to urge European leaders to stay the course on sanctions against Russia as the G7 meets in Germany amid ongoing Ukraine violations and a fragile Minsk cease-fire. He argues sanctions deter further Russian aggression and urges unity, while Harper says Putin should not return to the G7. The talks also cover military options and potential lethal aid to Ukraine.
