U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo says he hopes to be able in the coming days to announce additional measures along with Western allies to counter Russian aggression in Ukraine, Rferl reports.
"Next week I am hopeful, when our NATO colleagues are in town, we will be able to announce another series of actions that we will jointly take together to push back against what Russia is doing there in Crimea and the Sea of Azov and the region," Pompeo told a House of Representatives hearing on March 27.
NATO members are scheduled to be in Washington on April 4 to mark the 70th anniversary of the founding of the Western military alliance.
