bob menendez joins me now from cnbc in new jersey. senator, thank you very much.s a sense certainly in moscow that the u.s. is issuing empty threats. >> well, you know, we're not finished. first of all, the threats aren't empty. they're significant. they, of course, will seek to brush it off saying it has no consequence to them. but i do think that what has to happen next is a combination of europe coming to the conclusion that their commercial interests cannot supersede their security interests, and joining in some very biting sanctions because they have $400 billion worth of trade with russia versus 40-some-odd billion from the united states. so they have the greatest bite at the end of the day, and i know that they're debating that as they speak. so hopefully they'll come to the conclusion that they need to have some very significant sanctions joined with a continuing sanctions that we'll leverage as well as those that we call for in the senate past legislation, from the committee passed legislation. >> vice president biden on his trip in the last couple of day

we have senator bob menendez from new jersey saying stuff like the russian president is lying russian roulette. what's interesting is you have between the united states and western europe and, crucially, germany on this one. angela merkel was talking to the polish prime minister pushing for tougher action on russia. she herself was talking pretty tough. she was bluffing, she was doing a pretty good job. >> we live in the 21st-century and we do not solve conflicts to military means. we do not evade these conflict. if we costly repeat our readiness for dialogue and it has no effect, we take into account sanctions. >> meanwhile, we talk to people inside the kremlin and say they are preparing for iran-style sanctions. they're trying to calculate exactly what it would mean for russia to have the sanctions. secondly, they are already talking to state-controlled companies about how they can help should there be sanctions. the other thing going on as of this morning is more military exercises just east of ukraine. the reality, i think, come monday when you get the eu foreign minister meeting,

the foreign relations committee led by senator bob menendez and bob corker are working on a package thatthe clock is ticking, because congress is set to begin recess next week. senator boxer is a member of the senate foreign relations committee, also part of the climate change talkathon overnight. could include sanctions targeting officials involved in what is called threatening the sovereignty and territorial integrity of ukraine. they are also talking about loan guarantees, also reforms to the imf, the international monetary fund. the white house would like that. what would you support in this package, senator? >> i think you've laid it out very, very well. the importance of the imf is that's what we're going to be looking towards for ukraine, so we want to make sure they have enough and have the flexibility to act. so my understanding is, we're not there yet with the package, that we're trying to work it all out, and i'm thinking we'll probably have that done by next week. >> by next week, so not before congress adjourns? >> well, we're just going to be in monday, but we have asked wh

senator bob menendez pushing forward with these, but the white house has asked democrats to stand downry reid not to bring to a vote. but again this week senator menendez was out talking forcefully about this and now he's pushing back against those within his party. how does the white house navigate this? >> that's difficult. my guess is that -- i would be surprised if harry reid brought it up for a vote over the white house's objections. in some ways they can have their cake and eat it, too. all the democrats can say we want to be hard on iran and the president can say to the iranians look what i'm saving you from. you need to negotiate with me. so it's a little bit dicey for the white house. particularly with syria, particularly with the crimea russia, he needs to show that he's more forceful on foreign policy. here is aen example where he's saying no, let's hold off for a while. puts him in a tough spot. >> and quick final word to you. >> the president is in a tough spot on a lot of issues and he doesn't have many friends on the hill even his own party and he doesn't have the respec

officials including president obama's top national security adviser ben wroerhodes harry reid, and bob menendez john mccain. it was mostly met with humor and pride. speaker boehner said he's proud to be included on a list of those willing to stand against putin's aggression. and senator john mccain tweeted i'm proud to be sanctioned by putin. and earlier in the week, he would be proud to make the sanctions list. but he was not on the list this round. but as the sanctions banter continues, the situation on the ground is far more tense. and thousands of russian troops are along the ukrainian border. joining me now is michael crowley. thanks for joining us. this morning, the latest round in this back and forth between russia and the u.s., when the russian deputy foreign minister, sergei said we wouldn't like to use these talks as an element of the game of raising the stakes, but if they force us into that, meaning the u.s., we will take retaliatory measures here as well. is that a not so veiled threat from the russians that as far as -- that they will walk away from the bargaining table on things

actually, i think we have some audio of senator bob menendez of new jersey who just weighed in on the targeted sanctions by putin. he spoke to andrea mitchell and he talked about how maybe these fears are legitimate. take a listen. >> the russians also cannot believe that they can annex properties, territories of countries without real consequences or putin will calibrate where else he will go to next. >> we hear politicians here in the states sort of expressing fear about larger ambitions. you sort of cautioning that maybe he won't go any farther. what do you think it is that vladimir putin wants? >> well, first of all, i don't disagree with senator menendez. he may go further, i just don't think he's going to do it now. they're very careful now in how they are even going into other parts of eastern ukraine, other parts of ukraine. so so far, it's contained in crimea. i think that's what we are dealing with right now. but what's going on through putin's mind, and yesterday was an amazing, brilliant speech. i think george orwell is really just so jealous, the whole devil's speak that

let me play something that senator bob menendez said yesterday. >> putin started a game of russian roulette. i think the united states and the west have to be very clear in their response because he will calculate about how far he can go. >> this is what that's about, anne. how far will vladimir putin think he can go? >> yes, the big question everyone is asking now is what's next? what's next for putin, for the world and their reaction to him. nobody likes the word containment, but if putin were to stop at whatever action he is willing to take on crimea and the question there is, will russia formally annex crimea or not? were he to stop there he'd likely suffer sanctions. he'd suffer the business losses that steve referred to. but it would presumably stop there as far as the world reaction. if he moves further in other places in ukraine or even beyond ukraine, it's going to be a much, much more difficult thing and a much larger confrontation with the west. >> to that question, steve, another question, does putin know his own end game or is he just making it up as he goes along? >> i think t
