The United States of America has vowed to hit Russia with
more sanctions soon.
State Department spokesperson Ned Price said that additional
action against Russia is coming “very soon.”
He stated this when asked about Ukrainian President Vladimir
Zelensky’s request for greater G7 actions against Russia in response to the
latest alleged war crime in Bucha.
“When it comes to our sanctions, we’ve always said that we
will continue applying pressure on President Putin, on the Kremlin, on all of
those around him including oligarchs and cronies who are empowering this war of
choice against Ukraine, until and unless the Kremlin deescalates, until and unless
the violence diminishes, and until and unless these kinds of atrocities come to
an end. So I suspect you will very soon see additional pressure applied,” Price
told MSNBC Sunday.
“When it comes to these images out of Bucha, we have already
assessed that Russia’s forces have committed war crimes.
“What we’re doing, we are collecting information.”
Shocking images came to light from Bucha, Ukraine, Saturday
by Agence France-Presse of at least 20 civilian men dead and lining a single
street.
Asked about peace talks, Price said, “We have not seen any indication yet that the Russians are truly serious about deescalating this war.”
