"my mother's greatest joy in life was to make people laugh. although that is difficult to do right now, i know that her final wish would be that we return to laughing soon."

>> reporter: at the laugh factory in los angeles, the comedians paid tribute to joan by leading the audience in a final round of applause. and, you know, joan would have loved that. she loved this business. she loved show business. she loved her production and melissa knew that. being the sweet daughter that she was and as close as they were, she did something very kind for her mom. when she was taken off life support, she never woke again so they moved her into a private room to make her more comfortable. melissa called in her good friend, preston bailey, who was the designer at her wedding, to decorate the room because her mom did love a production. so it was filled up with flowers and plants and bows and having known joan personally, i know, charlie, she would have loved that. >> nancy, thank you so much. joan rivers believed she was successful because she always said what everyone else was thinking. she never stopped. >> hi, i'm joan rivers and today we are going to be discussing nudism, so get undressed all of you out there. >> sheez a brash, comedic style

>> do those say hello, sailor? >> in 1983, rivers was named the first permanent guest host of "the tonight show," but her relationship with carson was shattered years later when rivers signed on with fox to host a rival late-night show without telling carson first. >> he never spoke to me again. he took it as a complete betrayal. and i look back and i think maybe i should have just gone and asked him. >> rivers' late-night show was cancelled after just eight months. three months after that, joan's husband of 22 years, edgar rosenberg, who was a producer on the show, committed suicide. in a 2010 interview, she described to me her continued anger towards her husband. >> i loved my husband, but i'm still so angry at him. he just -- it's like samson, he brought down the -- he brought down the temple. >> rivers' income nosedived but

she rebounded with a new syndicated show and won a daytime emmy for outstanding talk show host in 1990. >> two years ago i couldn't get a job in this business. i could not get a job. >> then the woman whose self criticism was a hallmark of her humor, reinvented herself for a new generation, as a red carpet fashion guru. >> well, i know you didn't like what i wore last year. >> no. i'm not crazy about this year either. >> do you feel better this year? >> you should be collecting dr. kevorkian's people. >> the 81-year-old worked a grueling schedule to the end on several reality shows. her beloved daughter, melissa, alongside her. >> nobody has ever died from getting squished. the closest they ever game was john goodman's wife. >> joan rivers was to the end an entertainer. >> is show business the whole thing of your passion? >> it's -- i understand when people say -- i don't mean to sound so egotistical, it's like

a nun's calling. i never could ever think of doing anything else. when i could put two thoughts together as a child, that's where i was going. i didn't know how i was going to get there, but that's where i was going. >> show business. >> show business. >> wow. >> her humor was sometimes so out of bounds because it shocked you at first, but then it made you laugh so hard. >> exactly. she said what we were thinking in some cases. but it reminds me with the death of robin williams and now joan rivers how much we appreciate people who make us laugh. >> indeed, absolutely. yeah. and she said that's one of the key parts of life. she said life is so hard unless you laugh. >> we will have more on the life of joan rivers, including her very candid comments about dying. that's ahead on "cbs this morning." in wales, the u.s. and nine other nato countries are coming together to fight isis in iraq. this morning there are signs of a major victory against the terror group as president obama meets with nato allies. ukraine's president and pro-russian rebels say a

cease-fire in ukraine will start at 8:00 a.m. pacific time. major garrett is in wales where the president is scheduled to speak in just about 90 minutes from now. major, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. the u.s. and europe will hit russia with another round of economic sanctions over ukraine. nato will step uneasily into the military battle with isis, and a u.s. air strike may have killed a top isis figure in iraq. isis commander abu bakr al baghdadi may have lost a top lieutenant. a u.s. bombing raid near mosul killed abu hajar al sufi. deputy national security adviser ben rhodes, brother of cbs news president david rhodes, said the u.s. is investigating reports of al sufi's death. >> we are very careful not to make declarative statements until we know with certainty that someone like that, who's a very high value individual in the organization, has been taken out. any time that there's a leader taken off the battlefield in a terrorist organization like that, it does have an impact on

their ability to operate as effectively as they did before. >> reporter: president obama huddled with european leaders and jordan's king abdullah about military moves against isis. nato will pledge military assistance but specifics will come later. the white house conceded destroying isis is a job likely to fall to the next president. >> it's clearly going to take a very long time to ensure that you've eliminated that threat. >> reporter: mr. obama's described goal of making isis a manageable problem contrasted sharply with vice president joe biden's promise the u.s. would follow isis to the gates of hell for executing two american journalists. >> you understand the difference between manageable problem, gates of hell. >> well, i think the difference is when you look at the phases here, there's an initial phase where you have to degrade an organization. you have to squeeze them. you have to put in place a structure that can then defeat them. we've done this. >> reporter: in what could be a significant shift, the white house says it is now seriously considering sending lethal arms

to ukraine, a proposal that has the backing of the top democrat on the armed services committee. nato will increase its military assistance to ukraine and the european union has authorized an economic aid package valued at 15 million euros. there's word that an air strike killed the leader of the al shabaab terror group. somalia's prime minister announced the death this morning. an american doctor infected with ebola arrived this morning in nebraska. a police motorcade escorted rick sacra. he'll be treated in an isolation unit at the nebraska medical center in omaha. the doctor became infected in the virus in liberia, where he was delivering babies. sacra volunteered to go to liberia after two other american his wife, debbie, spoke to a doctor who helped sacra board a plane yesterday for the trip back home. >> he said that rick is clearly sick, but that he was in very

good spirits and he was -- and he walked onto the plane. so we are really encouraged by that news and looking forward to reuniting with him. >> sacra is only the third american to be infected with the virus. and he was once a rising star in the republican party, even a potential presidential candidate, but this morning he's a convicted felon. a jury found former virginia governor bob mcdonnell guilty yesterday on corruption charges. they also convicted his wife. chip reid is in washington with the emotional end to a month-long trial. chip, good morning. >> reporter: well, good morning. emotional is right. the mcdonnells apparently were stunned by the verdict. the crying in the courtroom began with the first call of guilty and continued as the clerk read that word over and over again. as he left the court house, a grim bob mcdonnell told a mob o officials are iesrepo remains in therts,remas in the

counts of corruption. his wife, maureen, who also went, fared only a little better, guilty on eight counts of corruption and one count of obstruction. they were convicted of accepting about $170,000 in gifts and low-interest loans from businessman jonnie williams, including $15,000 for a daughter's wedding reception and expensive equipment and rounds of golf for mcdonnell and his sons. the prosecution successfully argued that the mcdonnells returned treturned the favor by their positions as governor and first lady to promote williams' diet supplement business. >> are you shocked? >> yes. >> reporter: mcdonnell's attorney says he intends to appeal. >> we're very disappointed but not deterred. this fight is a long way from over. >> reporter: on the stand for five days, mcdonnell argued that he could not have conspired with his wife because their marriage was so broken they barely spoke.

he also blamed his wife for accepting many of the gifts, leaving him in the dark. attorney hampton dellinger says the verdict sends a strong message to public servants who are living the high life. >> today's verdict was a wake-up call for every politician. if they're not in it for the right reasons, they ought to get out of public life and fast. >> reporter: before this scandal broke, mcdonnell was a rising star of the republican party, a family values conservative who was on the list of possible running mates for republican presidential candidate, mitt romney. he was even mentioned as a future presidential candidate himself. sentencing is scheduled for january 6th and the mcdonnells can't appeal until after they are sentenced. if this case is not overturned on appeal, the mcdonnells could be looking at many years in federal prison. charlie. >> chip, thanks. we're getting word this morning of a security scare involving a delta airlines flight. the plane bound for amsterdam was ordered back to the gate while taxiing at kennedy airport in new york last night.

passengers say someone carried a knife aboard. video from the plane shows officers in the aisle. the tsa is not saying how the knife got past security. passengers report a flight attendant saw the knife just before takeoff. that passenger was taken off the plane. no word if the passenger is under arrest. and nearly three months after the death of a georgia toddler, a grand jury in cobb county returned an indictment against his father. joss tin ross harris faces eight counts, including three murder charges. >> he is accused of intentionally leaving his son, cooper, in the back seat of the family's suv on a sweltering day. cbs legal analyst rikki klieman is here. she worked as a defense lawyer and prosecutor. good morning. >> good morning. >> is this the indictment you expected? >> i think it's much larger than we expected. three alternative theories of murder. we certainly expected the premeditated. did not necessarily expect felony murder on two theories and they added in the sexual

exploitation of a minor and the exchange of pictures of genitals. >> i want to get to those texts in just a minute. what is malice murder? >> that is the top count which could mean the death penalty could be instituted, we'll know that in two or three weeks from the georgia prosecutors, that's what we thing of as premeditated, intentional murder. he planned this. he searched on the internet about child deaths. he searched on the internet about wanting a child-free life. he had the child in a car seat that was too small and facing the other way. he took out an insurance policy on the life of the child, unheard of for the caregiver to take out an insurance policy on a child. >> they can't prove premeditation, what are we looking at? >> we're really looking at a very, very theory for the prosecution. the underlying felony, we think of felony murder is you commit a robbery and someone dies, that's the felony. here the underlying felony is child cruelty, including two

theories of that. one being negligent. he just left the child in the car for seven hours and somehow forgot. >> and the sexually explicit texts? >> well, the texts are to make him look like a creepy guy. they want him to look like a bad guy. and the texts are involving a 17-year-old girl. that's not good. >> and the wife? >> the wife is still fine. the wife has not been charged. unless she says something incriminating at some point, i don't expect her to be charged. >> thank you. the seattle seahawks kicked off the nfl season with a reminder of why they are the reigning super bowl champs. the team unveiled its first super bowl banner in franchise history at a pregame ceremony last night, and they haven't lost their touch. the seahawks dominated the packers in the season opener, winning 36-16. and we are counting down to the start of thursday night football here on cbs. the first game is just six days away. you can see the steelers and the ravens thursday here on cbs. >> looking forward to that. it's 7:19. ahead on "cbs this morning," an

passengers. their flight left the washington area but jeff pegues is at dulles national airport in virginia. jeff, good morning. >> reporter: well, good morning. most of the passengers on board that plane had no idea what was really going on. the united jet was two hours into its flight, about 35,000 feet over canada, when it was ordered back to the u.s. it should have been a routine flight for 180 passengers bound for beijing thursday. little did they know they were in the middle of a custody dispute. the united airlines flight departed virginia's dulles international airport at 12:39 p.m. when it reached canadian airspace, the fbi ordered the boeing 777 back to virginia after learning a kidnapping suspect was on board. flight 897 landed back at dulles five hours after its departure. once at the gate, passenger lane bailey says the pilot made an

announcement. >> suddenly there was this announcement for three individuals to please get off the plane, go to the gate. finally they did stand up. >> the incident stemmed -- according to law enforcement sources a child was traveling with his mother. the child's father, an american citizen, alerted the fbi, fearing the mother was taking the child to china with no plans of returning. at the airport the mother was taken into police custody on attempted kidnapping charges. the child was safely returned to his father. it started to make sense to the passengers on board. >> the pilot came on and said we are experiencing a mechanical problem. then he came back on saying he felt that was the big thing to do given the circumstances of a potential abduction. >> reporter: had the plane

time that they have taken out full-blown newspaper ads like this one right here that ran in "usa today" yesterday. these ads are running in a half dozen newspapers across the country. the ads feature a series of striking images. armed shoppers standing next to customers breaking kroger's store policies. the caption reads "one of them isn't welcome at kroger. guess which one." it's the most aggressive attempt by the group called moms demand action. their goal, to draw attention to what they say are weak gun control laws. >> the ads portray what is real, which is you are allowed to bring a loaded assault rifle into a kroger, but you're not allowed to bring an ice cream cone. >> reporter: more than 40 states allow people to openly carry guns, although some require special permits or licenses. moms demand action, which is backed financially by former new york city mayor, michael bloomberg, insists it is not against guns or the second amendment, but believes people

shouldn't be allowed to walk around grocery stores with loaded weapons. gun rights activists argue the campaign is not based on reality. >> these are deceptive ads that attempt to try and paint everybody in a very odd corner. but the fact is they're isolated incidents. in most cases, firearms are used very judiciously, quietly. >> reporter: in a statement kroger said our long-standing policy is to follow state and local laws. we know our customers are passionate on both sides of this issue and we trust them to be responsible in our stores. the chain is the latest business to come under fire by the group, which also mounted pressure on target and starbucks. eventually both companies asked their customers not to bring firearms into their stores. >> hopefully kroger will respond quickly and we can move on to other companies and other laws and policies. but, you know, we aren't going away. >> reporter: now, the group isn't just limiting itself to

newspaper ads, it's also bought billboard space in cincinnati, ohio. that, of course, is the home of kroger's headquarters. gayle. >> all right, jan, thank you. pope francis showed off his social networking skills in his first google hangout where he took video questions from students around the world. >> what we'd really like to know from you is specifically how the program will help us bridge gaps between the youth in various countries today. >> the pope's program focuses on using technology, arts and sports to promote social interaction. the professor of theology at the university of notre dame says the pope understands the power of the web. >> all of these questions about peace and education and social justice, he seems to be suggesting by doing things like this, by having google hangout and building camaraderie among people from different nations that we can sort of solve the world's problems using technology. >> but not even the pope is immune to those glitches.

an actress. >> you knew him as a tot. >> i knew him as a tot. he came in and sent me a note, saying you're right, they're wrong. i kept that note. >> you believed it. >> honey, that went into my bra and stayed there for three years. and then when i got on the carson show, he sent me a telegram saying i told you so, lenny bruce. that just -- he, my generation was george carlin, richard pryor, all that group. he was the god for us. he was the one we all aspired to be. >> because? >> because he spoke the truth. >> yeah. what is it about you, you think, that gives you this tenacity to survive and to bounce back? >> two things. >> fear. >> fear -- no. truly. truly. you know this business. the tenacity is i never thought that i'm so terrific that anything's beneath me. truly, i've never been the one to say that's not my job, i'm a

star, i don't do that. that has never, ever crossed my mind. okay, that's number one. number two is i have to make a living and i go to make a living and this is what i do. >> did you spend a lot of time thinking about what you could have been, which is johnny carson's successor, and how you blew that opportunity? >> i never allow myself to think what could have been because you can't change things. >> right. >> i never -- what happened -- get it out of the way, move forward. >> what is your talent on stage? >> i think i am the neighbor that says what you're thinking. >> yeah. >> you know, that you go, did you hear what she said? it's true. >> that's right. >> i think that's who i am on stage. >> it's so great to see you, it really is. >> it's always great to see you. >> what thrills me most about this is it gives people a chance to understand and see, you know, it reminds us of how good you

every minute, this has been my life. >> nancy o'dell. >> that was two years ago. it was so touching to see that. >> so touching to see that. nancy o'dell is with us, co-host of "entertainment tonight." nancy, good morning. >> good morning, charlie and norah and gayle. that emotional moment is just more evidence of that incredible relationship that melissa and joan had. how comforting to melissa to have that piece of video right there. at the time joan was actually planning on having plastic surgery on her neck and the irony of that is melissa was concerned over the health risk of her 78-year-old mother undergoing a procedure, something she had become so well known for. and the two, they work sod closely together on a number of projects over the years. melissa producing and costarring in many of them. and they were fixtures on the red carpet. i saw them so many different times on the red carpet, covering everything from the oscars to the grammys. you can also see that joan kept such a positive outlook about

her life, feeling very lucky for all the years of success and the longevity she's had in the business. in fact, melissa said on thursday her mother's greatest joy in life was to make people laugh and you get the sense that joan wanted to bring people that joy every time that she could, even after she had died. in fact, she actually wrote about her death in a 2012 book. she said, quote, when i die, i want my funeral to be a huge showbiz affair with lights, cameras, action. i don't want some rabbi rambling on. i want meryl streep crying in five different accents. i want a wind machine so that even in the casket my hair is blowing just like beyonce. come on. she wants her hair to be blowing in the casket like beyonce. and she said she wanted a toe tag with harry winston diamonds. that is classic joan. >> that's so true. it's ironic she died yesterday on beyonce's birthday.

we've been hearing all sorts of tributes coming in. what stories have you been hearing in los angeles about joan rivers today? >> everyone remembering the life of laughter she brought. we talked so many celebrities after her passing. sarah jessica parker being one. she was the one who challenged joan to the als ice bucket challenge, one of three people. we asked sarah why she challenged her to do the ice bucket challenge, why she chose joan. she said, actually because i knew she would make something so serious so funny in a good way and that's what i think everybody remembers about joan, that she could take a very serious situation and make it very funny. her funeral is scheduled to be on sunday in new york city. and i can imagine it's going to be of a celebratory nature with lots of laughs because that's the way she would have wanted it. >> what i loved about her and her career, she kept coming back. notwithstanding a lot of challenges, she kept coming back and was down that until the end. >> she was so relevant. >> that's right, nancy.

never thought of. i got up to 11. >> and you're exhausted. >> where were you, norah? >> so anyway -- >> from sex now to endorsing candidates. why? >> well, i think that it's interesting because everyone says, oh r, cosmo is doing politics. cosmo has always been interested in issues that impact women's lifestyles. there are two issues we feel strong about and readers are. it's equal pay for equal work which you would think in 2014 it would be done and also access to great health care and contraception because if you're a magazine like cosmo and we want people to have a great sexy fun lives you need to think about contraception because niegtser men nor women want to have baby every time they have sex. >> that is true. >> i'm sorry to say but it is true. so when we look at the political landscape, this is an important election. when you look at college

intakes, 52% of college intake is young women. none of them are coming out of college and say, oh, i'd love to earn 23% less than the guy who studied next to them. none of them are going into the office and say, please pay me 26% less. >> the difference, joanna, you're getting into the endorsement business. that's new. i'm curious, what does it take to get a cosmo endorsement? what what are you looking for. >> all need to take sex positions and report back. >> that will have a political impact too. >> it might get people working together. >> i was going to say. i think we might get cross-poll nei nation across the house. there are several key races. one with thom tillis and kay hagan. you look at a character like thom tillis who actually kills equal pay, the equal pay bill in his state and he supports

personhood which actually means that they want to take the iud out of circulation for women. now, the -- out of circulation for couples actually because men get benefits from the iud too. so those are candidates we want you to know will have an impact on your life if they win. >> and this is so interesting because in the debate one of the things that was so interesting to me that thom tillis the republican said is women should have more access to contra spgs including over-the-counter contraception. i was taken aback because i've not seen him take that position but it was clearly to close a wide gender gap in that state and there are other republican candidates who say there should be more broad access to contraceptive. >> yes. i think the contraception you can buy over the counter without your doctor being involved is less reliable. of course, you can use condoms but it is not as reliable as something like the iud which is much easier to use. >> or the birth control pill. >> of course. the pill. and you have the governor's race

in wisconsin where the governor there, the male governor. >> scott walker. >> thank you. scott walker. i was making sure i didn't exchange him with something else, introducing sonograms for women wanting abortion. these are life-changing choices for women and we want them to know about it. >> joanna, the obvious question comes are you only going to be endorsing democratic candidates? >> no. interestingly, i don't think this is as much about democrats and republicans as it is generational, that young women and young men are all looking across the spectrum of these candidates and thinking who are the people who understand science. you remember the last election, the crazy comments from troy aik aiken, the women who get raped can't have abortions. we were having a conference to discuss it in november at the lincoln center. >> thank you, joanna coles.

it was like being in a sorority, you know. we were like college age and having great time and a lot of fun. >> reporter: appearances on mtv's "house of style" catapulted her into the pop culture stratosphere. >> i work a lot, maybe too much. i need to slow down. >> reporter: the money and access began to flow and so did the drugs and alcohol. were friends and family saying to you, you've got an issue we need to talk about it? >> nobody really came out to me directly except my mom. she gave me a pretty strong lecture. i think my real friends were just over it. they were far and few anyway. >> reporter: it wasn't uncommon for amber to show up high for a million-dollar photoshoot. she soon sought help. and in 2000 after living sober for just one year gave birth to her son. >> i still work as a model from time to time. >> reporter: amber has lived in

recovery for the past 15 years, turning 40 this year prompted her to share her story. why now? why come out now with your sobriety? >> i believe that addiction is still considered something shameful and that if you had the willpower you could fix it, and that's just not true. it's time to lift the veil. >> reporter: what did it feel like to do that? >> it felt like a relief because i've guarded it so privately in the public so it was like really exposing myself. this is really who amber valletta is. >> reporter: since day one she has been honest with her son. addiction runs in the family. yet this mom acknowledges her boy is headed into the vulnerable adolescent years. how will that go with your son and you, do you think? >> i mean, i know he's going to experiment. i mean, i kind of hope he doesn't, but he has such intense

information about it and he's seen it really up close. but i also don't want to be like the crazy parent that's like, you know, hovering and watching and not giving him his space because i'm afraid if i don't allow him to do and make mistakes, he will also push against me. >> reporter: what would amber valletta tell her younger self now? >> don't be afraid to be strong, bold, care less about what people think. >> reporter: yet despite 16 covers of "vogue" and her status as a fashion icon, bringing attention to her status as an addiction will be her proudest. will this be the most you've accomplished in your life? >> absolutely. i want to tell people they have nothing to be ashamed of. come out of the darkness.

come into the light. you can recover from this disease and you don't have to be a prisoner to something. >> reporter: amber told us she wished she had just one more year in tulsa before modeling. she's an avid reader. we spent a lot of time talking about books. she might be writing one. i think she should. one thing she would tell aspiring models today is finish high school which i think is very wise advice. >> i think it's great speaking out. somebody looking at her right now will say that happened to you? and it will help others in ways she can't manage. >> and she's already gotten that reaction coming out. you've come out of it. >> she came out of what? >> drugs and alcohol. everything, she says. >> which is a remarkable presence today. >> my gosh. she's beautiful inside and out. she was amazing. >> lee, thank you so much. and shakespeare wrote all the world's a stage. now his words are getting a modern spin, you could say. jamie wax is in new york central park. >> reporter: what happens in

military incursion in ukraine allies have agreed to set up a group. at the same time a cease-fire was announced between ukraine and pro-rebels 47 minutes ago. also at the summit, the u.s. said it's putting together nations to confront the threat known as isis and isil and operating in iraq and syria. that is the group that beheaded two american journalists. the coalition will not be providing ground forces to that effort. bob schafer is here. >> if we are to judge by what

secretary of state kerry said a while ago, the president will put a much harder edge on his response to isis. he's been under intense criticism, as you know, for at first saying we had no strategy to deal with isis and then for saying he hoped to degrade it to make it, quote, a manageable problem. today secretary of state kerry said, look, there is no containment. that is not our policy. he said to leave and allow isis to stay in place and these are his words, would lead to leave a cancer in place which could come back to haunt us. so my guess is, judging from that, the president is going to kind of bring some clarification to what he has been saying about what he responds -- what he intends to do in response to isis. secretary of state kissinger told me earlier this week that the united states should have hit hard and maybe for several

days, isis at every point we could find and then step back and decide what our strategy from there on is going to be. so i think that's probably where you are going to hear the president start today. we will also get some details on this strike force that the nato group is planning to put in place that has been talked about for a long time. they finally agreed to it today. and also the cease-fire, scott, that has just gone into effect in ukraine, the russians and the ukrainians agreed to it, and that's good news on the surface. i guess the bad news is that the russian troops are frozen in place inside ukraine. so there's a lot of work to be done on this, but at least as we understand it, the shooting has stopped. >> bob, as we watch the podium here in newport, wales, at the

nato summit, we are waiting for the president to walk out and we are expecting him at any moment, and you were mentioning isis will be on the agenda as the president takes questions. we are now seeing the president's remarks being placed on the podium, which means the president will be following shortly. bob, there has been a lot 6 concern about isis fighters with u.s. and european passports coming back into the west. tell us more about that. >> it's not just americans, scott, but also a thousand europeans fighting with the militant groups, and there are some with two groups. all of these folks have papers that allowed them to travel back to their countries and one of the most urgent matters here is to track who these people are and prevent them from coming

back. one thing that secretary kerry and his partners agreed on this morning is to try to attempt cut off the flow of foreign fighters. there's some 12,000 foreign fighters in syria, and some 1,500 or so from western nations -- >> bob, here is the president of the united states. >> let me begin by thanking my great friend, prime minister cam camron for hosting this event. it's a great honor to be the first sitting u.s. president to visit wales. we have met at a time of transition and a time of testing. after more than a decade, nato's combat mission in afghanistan is coming to an end. russia's aggression in ukraine

is at peace, and the threat from isis poses a danger. first and foremost we reaffirmed the central mission of the alliance. article 5 inshrines our solemn duty to each other, an armed attack against one shall be considered an attack against them all. this is a binding treaty obligation. it's nonnegotiable. here in wales we left absolutely no doubt, we will defend every ally. second, we agreed to be resolute in reassuring our ally. rotations of additional forces throughout eastern europe for training and exercises will continue.

naval patrols in the black sea will continue. and all 28 nato nations agreed to contribute to all of these measures for as long as necessary. third, to insure that nato prepares for any conten skwrupb see, we have a new readiness action plan. the alliance will update the defense planning and create a new highly ready rapid response force that can be deployed on very short notice and increase nato's presence in eastern and central europe with equipment and training and exercises and troop rotations and a $1 billion contribution to this plan from the u.s. the nations have pledged to increase investments in defense and move towards investing 2% of their gdp.

it will help nato invest in critical capabilities including intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance, and missile defense, and this makes clear nato will not be complacent. we will rise to meet the challenges that we face in the 21st century. fifth, our alliance is fully supported in ukraine's sovereignty, and its right to defend itself. to back up this commitment, all 28 nato allies will now provide security assistance to ukraine, and this includes nonlethal support like body armour and fuel and medical care for wounded ukrainian troops as well as assistance to help modernize ukrainian forces including logistics and control. and today the united states and

europe are finalizing measures to deepen and broaden our sanctions across russia's financial energy and defense sectors. at the same time we strongly support conflict in one country. the cease-fire today can advance that goal, but only if there is follow-through on the ground. pro-russian separatists must keep their commitments and russia must stop its violations of ukraine's sovereignty. nato's combat mission ends in three months and we are prepared to transition to a new mission, to train and advice and assist afghan forces. both presidential candidates

pledged to sign the bilateral security agreement that would be the foundation of the continued cooperation, but as we know the outcome of the recent election must be resolved go we continue to urge the two presidential candidates to make the compromises necessary so afghans can move forward. finally we reaffirmed the door to membership remains open to nations that can meet our high standards. we agreed to expand the partnership that makes nato the hub of security. we want to make sure our forces continue to operate together and will create a new initiative to help countries build defense capabilities, starting with georgia, jordon and libya.

already allies have joined us in iraq where we have stopped isil's advances, and we equipped our iraqi partners and helped them go in offense, and nato has agreed to provide assistance to those on the frontlines and key nato allies continue to confront the threat. secretary kerry will now travel to the region to continue building the broad-base coalition that will enable us to ultimately destroy isil. taken the progress we made in wales makes it clear our alliance will do whatever is necessary to protect our citizens. so with that, let me take a few questions. i will start with julie pace of

the associated press. >> reporter: i wanted to go back to the situation in ukraine. if the cease-fire takes affect and appears to be holding with you and your european counterparts back away from the sanctions that you prepared or do you think it's important to levy them? can you say specifically what u.s. contributions will be in terms of troop members and equipment? will it be close to what you announced announced. >> based on past experience, also stkeptical, and the separatists will follow-through and the russians will stop violating ukraine's sovereignty, so it has to be tested. the europeans are discussing at this point the final shape of their sanctions measures, and it's my view if you look at the

plan, it will take some time to implement, and as a consequence for us to move forward based on what is currently happening on the ground with sanctions, while acknowledging that if in fact the elements of the plan that has been signed are implements then those sanctions can be lifted is a more likely way for us to insure that there is follow-through, but that's something that obviously c consult with our partners. i want to point out the only reason we are seeing the cease-fire is because of the sanctions that have been applied and the threat for more sanct n sanctions that have isolated

russia in a way we have not seen in a long time. the path for russia to re-join the community of nations that respect international law is still there, and we encourage president putin to take it. but the unity and firmness that we have seen in the trance atlantic alliance in supporting ukraine and applying sanctions has been, i think, a testimony to how seriously people take the basic principle that big countries can't just stomp on little countries or force them to change their policies and give up their sovereignty. i am very pleased with the kind of work that has ukraine, and i think u.s. leadership has been critical throughout that process. with respect to the rapid

plan we put forward, i announced $1 billion in our initiative. a sizable portion of that will be devoted to implementing various aspects of this readiness action plan. we've already increased, obviously, rotations of personnel in the baltic states, for example. we have the air policing, we have the activities that are taking place in the baltic and the black sea, but this allows us to supplement it. it allows us to coordinate it and integrate it further with additional contributions from other partners. what it signifies is n.a.t.o.'s recognition that, in light of recent russian actions as well as rhetoric, we want to make it
