Read between the lines: the far-going consequences Russia is facing for the aggression against Ukraine «As they seek to put the diplomatic squeeze on Russia to pull back its forces from Crimea and negotiate with Kiev, EU nations announced Thursday they will suspend bilateral talks with Russia on visa matters and have threatened travel bans, asset freezes and cancellation of a planned EU-Russia summit. French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius told French public radio Friday that tougher measures are planned if Moscow doesnt act to de-escalate the situation. Without very prompt results, there will be further measures against Russian officials and companies. Those could be asset freezes, cancellations, visa denials, he told France Info. And if another attempt is made, then we would enter into something completely different -- that is to say serious consequences for the relations between Europe and Russia.»
