New Russia sanctions could be lifted if ceasefire agreed: UK

NEWPORT, UNITED KINGDOM: New sanctions against Russia expected to be announced on Friday in response to the Ukraine crisis could be lifted if a ceasefire is implemented, Britain's foreign secretary Philip Hammond said.

"What would be sensible is to go ahead with our plan for increased sanctions," he told the BBC at a Nato summit in south Wales.


"If there is a ceasefire, if it is signed and if it is then implemented, we can then look at lifting sanctions off."
