as progress separatists to see more buildings themselves in eastern ukraine united states wants sanctions against russia. nearly seven hundred calls brotherhood supporters including the spiritual leader sentenced to death in egypt following a mass trial a battle royale french industrial giant. germany's siemens or us conglomerate ge what lessons are on to the ukrainian city of donetsk in the east where pro and anti russian activists adult in the streets leaving fourteen people injured some seriously as the situation in eastern ukraine becomes more volatile the united states and the eu have unveiled a new round of sanctions against russia. targeting top government advisors and the number of companies of these new sanctions were milder than men in moscow had feared. washington says the kremlin is not doing enough to rein in separate groups another building seems to be more barricades going on a pro russian activists in the town of content in each cup about what a find the latest conquest on monday it was another sign that the separatist movement in eastern ukraine remains undiminished. brussels european u

wanting to. so if you will russia there is disagreement between the united states and the e.u. over exactly what form these sanctions should take place and what form the sanctions should be in the european union wants to see more personal sanctions against those it claims are in the in the circle of the russian leadership where is the united states wants to see more wider ranging economic sanctions against russia now the reason for this difference is well fairly simple it all comes down to money the union has closer ties with russia in terms of trade as well as in terms of energy a vast amount of the energy used in europe comes from russia's gas supply so it doesn't want to to upset the applecart too much now the reason that they're wanting to impose these is that they say that russia is it holding up to eight sides of the bargain when it comes to the geneva accords the talks that took place there but russia has maintained constantly that it wants to see all sides in the conflict in ukraine lay down their arms and that is opposes the fact that the ukrainian government the govern

united states, russia and the ukraine. many hopes here pinned on a resolution because they don't want to have to move forward with stronger nctions against russia because of the threat of blow back against the european union, who have deep trade with russia. that could be brought to a halt. >> thank you for that. >>> the u.s. said a russian fighter aircraft made repeated low altitude close range passes near one of its ships in the black sea over the weekend. the pentagon has called it a provocative and unprofessional action. the aircraft appeared to be unarmed. >> well, the ambassador to the united nations we are joined live now from the u.n. thank you for joining us here. first of all, let me ask you a direct question. we heard that the interim president had a talk with ban ki-moon, the general secretary of the u.s. and saying that they would not object to peacekeeping force in the country. is this a way of them asking for a peace-keeping force in the ukraine? >> i know about this, and we'll work with that. it's normal address from the state to the united nations fag for the tans. we need the tans because this there the i

united states? and this is important politically to joe biden. if he wants to be the next president of the united states, he's been involved in the russia reset, as was hillary clint be. he has to let the world know the obama administration did not miscalculate in this part of the world. >> how important is this trip for the vice president? >> it's important for him, for his political future. alongside kerry, the vice president is clearly the point man here. he's the one who was talking about reset, along with hillary. they've got to figure out a way to get the upper hand here or else they're very vulnerable to the charge that you misunderstood and misread vladimir put and you let him get the best of you. i mean, he cannot annex ukraine. >> when you take an international mission like this, the vice president, a lot of folks, political types like you and me, they immediately start speculating about the impact potentially on 2016. >> well, look, everyone who runs for the presidency wants to be seen as an effective leader on the world stage. that is why when hillary clinton first ran for the presidency she was talking about her experience. she clear

russia. >> earlier today the president said countries have to be united if sanctions are going to work. i want to bring in cnn ""state of the union"" host candy crowley. >> good morning. >> russia seems unfazed by the threat of sanctions. do you think the president's tough talk is going to work? >> i think probably what the president is focused on now is the general art of persuasion. it's interesting to me that he's not sending messages to russia right now. he's sending messages to allies. that says to me that they're still working on getting western europe in particular united fully behind the next step in sanctions, to more directly say does tough talk work? not unless it's followed up by tough action and the white house says we've got more sanctions ready to go, but again, he's going to have to convince allies to come on board. >> who else are you talking to this morning, candy? >> we'll be talking to a member of the president's national security team and also with prime minister benjamin netanyahu, middle east peace talks, secretary kerry has been at it for nine months pretty intensively they've fallen apart ove

united states has had. russia, iran, whatever you want to choose. but i don't think it's going to stick. >> reporter: still, clinton's complex and sometimes cozy diplomatic moves have raised questions that have driven democrats crazy for decades. on a trip to moscow in 2009, she pressed russia to buy boeing jets. a month later she announced boeing was donating $2 million to the world's fair in china. boeing won a contract to sell russia jets a few months later and atwo months later they made a $900 million contribution to the clinton foundation. warren has said she's not running but she does have a new book out next week about her vision for the nation's future. bill clinton's former strategist says there's little appetite for a liberal challenge to clinton outside the far left blogosphere. >> not anything to mount a real serious challenge right now. >> reporter: that's a reference to the likes of vermont senator bernie sanders who visited the first primary state of new hampshire last weekend and says he's not afraid to challenge clinton. martin o'm

we have the united states also now having to focus on europe too so where it could have been friends with both countries and i we spoke about how russia at the beginning of this century wanted to be a friend of the united states the united states has now got itself into a situation where it's gone bad relations with both countries and both countries seem to be deepening their relations with each other in response to the pressure they feel from the united states and that is a pivotal change me to have in washington how does the something go ahead jump in ways go ahead just so yeah. let me just add something to what i state and also in response to what we just heard first of all the people policy was done well before the ukraine crisis agreed and the united states has been concerned about china right from from the late one nine ninety s i. early two thousand and pivoting is also not just a military strategy it has economic and diplomatic components what is needed though with the crisis in ukraine revitalized from nato the united states now have to decide whether it can afford to prevent as much as it had thought it could because now nato will demand more strategic attention a

japanese especially when they've watched how the united states has handled the issue with the ukraine and russia. so this is something that they wanted to see how steadfast would the united states be in ukraine, because they felt as if, how that went, so could go how this dispute with china could go. i think already the president has set a positive tone as far as the japanese are concerned. but this entire trip really is about the president trying to make in particular japan and south korea realize that they are first among equals as far as the united states is concerned, when they think about asia. there has been some concern by the japanese and by the south koreans that the more the president and its administration reaches out to china, the closer ties, think about michelle obama, goodwill tour that just happened in china last month, the direct talks that the president has had, the number of visits he's made to china. japan and south korea are going wait a minute, we're your closest allies. they're a rival. what's going on here? in many way this is trip, no china is on this asian itinerary and this he's on purpose. this trip is abo

united states is making. the ease with which russia got what it wanted is not likely to be repeated. >> demographics is quicker there's fewer russians. >> it's more integrated into the ukraine state. putin in 2008 told george w. bush that it's not a country, referring to ukraine. this was something that many in ukraine - many in the united states as well - were upset about. it demonstrated his contempt for the ukrainian state. he's acting on that notion, that belief that it's not a country, they are not going to mind if we take over, because they want to be with us any. >> he could be wrong. if he is, and they act on the pretext and ipp vade. they'll have an -- invade, they'll have an insurgency on their hand. it will weaken and destabilize ukraine, which is a victory from moscow. it's hard to believe they'll have an easy time of it. >> you wrote on the debate in the u.s., how to respond to the russian invasion shows the absorption of the political establishment. putin would do what he wants to do. shouldn't the u.s. and n.a.t.o. do something at some point to stop russian expansion. >> of course. the points i

united states play? because right now we are talking about crimea, our government is still is talking about it as if it is not part of russia, it is still is part of ukraine, and wants to go to the mat to make that point. at some is point, does united states let crimea go, in favor of more stability in eastern ukraine? >> well, i don't think formally the united states is going to be prepared to let crimea go. what will pursue is is is more likely a tom of nonrecognition. it may not have much of an impact on the conditions on the ground, the way things operate in crimea, nor how we deal with various aspects of russia in that part of the world. but limit be a formal policy that can come into play if it changes. certainly for the united states now, i think the first goal is to help stabilize the situation, inside crimea, inside ukraine, get to some national con sen is survivors on the political system. and deal with the issue well out into the future. >> so does it make twenty-fifth elections have the potential for being a clarifying moment for all the partners. >> president putin has indicated he doesn't believe these will be legitimate. they zillion make the claim th

want to intervene, doesn't see a military step in this for the united states. doesn't see troops on the ground, doesn't want to be in a military conflict with russia. if the u.s. is not going to lead. thursday? >> they are a diplomatic cover ground. here. >> thank you. >> on to other news of the world. the search for a sign for the missing malaysian airlines plane continues after a robotic submarine came up empty handed on misunderstand. the bluefin 21 was hauled to the surface six hours after mapping the floor of the ocean, after reaching the maximum depth of 15,000 feet. as many planes and ships are scouring a 24 hour patch of ocean. officials say the chances of finding any have diminished. the surface search is expected to end in the next few days. samples are in perth australia, of an oil slick. it will take days more. >> lisa stark has been following the disappearance of flight mh370. you know, we think about this and the impact of this rover. we imagine that it will go down and find something, find something quickly, but it cannot see what is down there. >> no, it's pitch-black and freezing. there's no camera on the submarine, the unmanned su

europe, especially the united states, does not want to oncede to russia especially in ukraine. putin is determined to that. it will cause huge damage to the european economy. it will condemn russia to isolation and decay and destroy the ukraine as well. >> we have wisened up. we have been through a gas crisis before. we have better stockpiles. we have taken better precautions, have we not? the european union, italy, germany, where the gas flows to. >> better than was the case in the last decade to be sure. he supply has gotten larger. l.n.g. has slowed into the european gas houses from qatar in particular. russian gas remains extremely important. it is still 1/3 of volume. europe is in economic trouble. asia's gas pricing is more buoyant. the pricing has recovered markedly in the last year or so. the trends you mention are there. but they are still baby steps. so that mutual dependence, the mad factor as we just mentioned is very much there. >> thank you very much for your time today. we're back in just a couple of minutes. >> welcome back to "the pulse" live on bloomberg telev

united states does not want to hear russian logic. they do not understand what we want. they do not understand why we behave this way. i hear the same argument, russiaoes not want to hear the west perceives the situation. two sides do not hear each other. i still think that after all of this, russia and united states do not understand each other on a very basic level. it is a serious and deep level. i think a lot of misconceptions and political disagreements come from this deep misunderstanding. we have a person who can explain this and why we have such a misunderstanding and how we can overcome this. the personal advisor to president reagan. i recommend everyone to buy and read this book. it is a very good analysis of the situation. i think he shocked gorbachev when he said this because gorbachev did not expect reagan to be so advanced. but that is basically -- this is a key to how to deal with these relations. we cannot trust him he cannot verify. there is mistrust. people who manage and know their history, they know about the cold war. they can tell us. we are in a new cold war. why don't we understand russia? i ask you to give us little comments

united states might want. not why you can affect the financial system in russia, that is why. they have calculated that yes, if there were a large-scale invasion, there would be tougher sanctions. this is not a large-scale invasion, it's a grey zone. it's a gradual - gradual tactics, and becomes very difficult for the europeans and u.s. to say at what point does this trigger the next round of sanctions. this is a cat and mouse game to some extent. i think they figured that they are not going to get the tough sanction, but they may be wrong. >> u.k. and sweden - we are talking tougher. is part of the calculation that putin makes going back to the sharp criticism of obama administration, who says that syria and the red line that he said could not be crossed. he did not take action when syria used chemical weapons, that they did not believe that president obama is going to be really tough either. not only the european union. >> well, i think that russia would have undertaken the occupation and the annexation of crimea irrespective of what it thought president obama was not going

russia. today i want to speak to you about three things. one, why arms control agreements with russia continue to be an important tool to enhance the security of the united statesr allies and partners. two, how we have used arms control tools since the crisis in ukraine began to increase transparency and stability in support of our broader regional efforts. and, three, the seriousness with which the administration takes compliance and arms control treaties. first, as it has been recognized for over four decades, arms control is a tool that can be used to enhance the security of the united states, our allies and our partners. the obama administration has continued the long standing bipartisan approach to arms control with russia that had its origins in the days of the cold war. the administrations of presidents ronald reagan, george h.w. bush were the architects of many of our most successful and enduring arms control efforts. let me affirm that the united states is committed to maintaining strategic stability between the united states and russia and to encouraging mutual steps to foster a more stable, resilient, predictable and transparent security relationship

russia is door dependent on the international economy. and they care about their relationship with the united states at least economically. a lot of joint investments in technology, energy, banking and finance. they don't want united states. so i do think that putin -- look, he's got 80% popularity. he got this crimea thing. i'm not saying he's going to stop. he constantly baffles what we all predict. but i think he's also realistic. the russian economy is hurting. it's hurting from this crimean effort. investment is flying out. many other statistics. >> you may have caught this interesting column in politico, written by a former u.s. officer, in which he argues u.s. diplomats are outmatched by their russian counterparts. he's noting that russia's ambassadors to nato nations have 960 years of combined experience, while america's ambassadors have only 331. so a lot our ambassadors, as you well know, they're political apointments. does that put the u.s. at a disadvantage if they're not career diplomats? >> i think if you're going to have a political appointee, you want somebody with a little substance. both parties are sent ambassadors that are not qualified. i for instance served with lavrov, the current for

they don't want the eu, they don't want the united states, they want them to stay out of ukrainian affairs. i think one of the good aspects of that meeting is that russiaattending it, so certainly they will want to wait and see, but this is people who say that they have been completely forgotten for the past 23 years by the government in kiev, so now they don't want to hear anything about it, and they are very much afraid that if that government gets too close to the eu for them things will just take a turn for the worse. >> all right. thank you. >>> meanwhile in the black sea port of odessa, at least seven people have been injured in protests. one man was escorted outside of a hotel by security forces. >>> the russian foreign minister is warning that europe's stability will be threatened by rising anti-russian sentiment, but sergei lavrov says it is still possible to calm the situation. >> translator: to achieve this, it's necessary to stop attempting by every possible means to legitimate the government without any exceptions, and the key question is the implementation of a real constitutional reform which would secure legitimate rights and interests

we ultimately don't want this to be viewed as a proxy fight between the united states and russia. but the reality is that there is a real danger to the ukrainian military and to the ukrainian civilians by having this kind of russian presence on the border of ukraine and now inside ukraine. so it is, in our interests, as a friend of ukraine, to try to give them intelligence or assistance to try to avoid bloodshed, and to the extent that we've been cooperating between our militaries or between our intelligence agencies, it's mostly been to try to avoid conflict, not to instigate it. that, i think, is an important coordination, notwithstanding the fact that it may not be super smart to have brennan in kiev, giving the impression that the united states is somehow there to fight a proxy war with russia. >> in terms of avoiding armed conflict, which i think the overwhelming participants, american citizens, onlookers, journalists, i think everyone wants to see armed conflict avoided, the president basically today both saying, it's essentially unthinkable, but also kind of, i don't know i

want to have better lives. to them russia represents the soviet union and a failed experiment. >> what do they want from the united states west? >> they are disappointed in the west. they feel they have had unrequited love affair with the u.s. they admire the u.s.. they want to be part it. they feel the u.s. is standoffish. we're not providing as much as aid as we might or much moral support. they understand we won't send troops. there's no expectation of that. they would like to see more of a hug. >> do they reed bill krystal. when you say troops we think bill krystal. do you think we should have american boots on the ground in ukraine >> i'm not sure we should. i'm not sure the president of the united states should rule it out. what happens if putin invades ukraine. we stuck to that position in syria. assad used chemical weapons. let's ball club to air power or air support or providing weapons to the ukrainians. is that a bridge too far for president obama. people in ukraine are right to be disappointed in us and i say that with great regret because we don't have an american president who is standing up to putin in the

united states. >> ukraine's prime minister said russia wants to start world war iii and secretary of state john kerryis warning russia not to ignore the threat of new economic sanctions. >> let me be clear, if russia continues in this direction, it will not just be a grave mistake, it will be an expensive mistake. >> ukraine's military says it is starting the next stage of attacks against pro-russian militia. holly williams is in donetsk, one of cities where demonstrators hold government buildings. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. ukraine's government today said it will mount a blockade of a town just north of here which is held by pro-russian separatists. that comes amidst of worst tensions between washington and moscow since the end of the cold war. russia has massed tens of thousands of troops on its border with ukraine and is now carrying out military exercises. so far u.s. intelligence does not believe they're readying for an imminent invasion. but tensions inside ukraine are running high. government soldiers began their offensive on the road to slavyanask yesterday, moving in and forcin

wants everyone to know tonight. >>> and a good evening on this tuesday night. we begin with the united states sending vladimir putin of russia

russia. >> rose: what do you want from the united states and the west?fl>> most important saiskses, as long as possible, as teen as possible, as much as possible. don't make money with the wiewt-- it's money from war, bad money. >> rose: stop dealing with thim. no personal relationships. >> yes, yes, you don't, you know, product of something hike that. >> have you been to washington? >>, of course,. >> who did you meet with and talk to. with piedep, with michelle obama, where murphy. a lot of very great politicians who understand what's going on. it's not the problem with ukraine, it's a problem for all of us, and i'm happy to work with these people and understand that everybody try to stop this new war from putin. >> rose: what do you think of chenshanko? do you think she's part of ukraine's future? >> she's from old time. you know what i mean? i'll not sure that she is from future. she's from the past. hn. >> rose: you need somebody from the future. >> yes, exact plea. >> rose: when you were on stage for 10 hours, you begged police not to the shoot. >>

and they want to break away, and that's possible if russia has a strong presence, and we are going to see some of that in the coming days, the united statesosed to sit down in geneva to hold talks. there are indications russia wants representatives from the eastern part of the country to attend those talks, an indication that it's increasingly divided. >>> a group of high profile republicans gathering in new hampshire today looking to grow their appeal as potential 2016 candidates. rand paul kicking things off in the city of dover saying the republican party needs to court young people. >> to win elections you have to have more people in your party and you have to have a bigger party. let's take this message and not dilute the messages. if you would be democrat-like, you can win is what some republicans say, and i say that is hogwash. >> the freedom summit, what is it all about and who is on the agenda today? >> good morning, alex. this freedom summit is hosted by americans for prosperity, and that's the coke-funded group airing so many ads and are expected to play a big role in the upcoming 2016 presidential contest. you have the conserv

i just want to quickly briefly talk about this clash between russia and the united states in the united nations last night. samantha power saying that insecurity in ukraine is written and choreographed by russia. russia says that the western powers are supporting neo-nazis in kiev. it is pretty inflammatory. >> and where do we think the european foreign ministers are going to go with this today? >> one of the things that european foreign ministers need to prove before they put into place any further sanctions is that there is this link between russia and the pro-russian forces in eastern europe. they don't have that proof. that is one thing that needs to be established. is, there isng still quite a lot of opposition against putting further sanctions into place. i am just going to tell you about a report that came out this morning. deutsche is going to meet with the head of russian railways. lobby tovon trying to get the contract to build a railroad between moscow and kaza n. this could be worth as much as 20 billion euros. there is a lot of german business. >> we have been hearing from

russia wants a federalization, ukraine has been saying it's not up for russia to determine the political life in that country. the united states has been saying this meeting of the four sides is an opportunity for russia to deescalate. president putin where he talks to people across russia and now crimea, has been saying the military option is still on the table. it doesn't sound like the deescalation looked for. we'll just basically see what the diplomats say in the minutes and hours to come, but the expect is as pretty low. >> we are expecting to hear from the u.s. envoy, as well as the russian foreign minister. nick, we are talking about sanctions, as well, there's all right a round of sanctions against russia for the u.s. as well as the e.u., threatening tougher sanctions. >> they're called level three sanctions. there are already sanctions in place which target members of the russian president's entourage, the political structure at the kremlin, people seen as decision makers in the deannexation of crimea as well as some crimean officials, the e.u. has similar sanctions in place and also asset freezes, money that may be h

russia and united states. i have been in moscow week ago and i heard from everybody the united states doesn't want to hear russianwatch it. they don't understand what we want. they don't understand. i am coming here and hearing the same argument, russia doesn't want to hear the west, what the west wants. two sides don't hear each other. i think after all this history of the 20th century russia and the united states to not understand each other on a very basic serious deep level, there is no understanding. lot of misconceptions, stereotypes and political disagreements coming from this deep misunderstandings and the best person who can explain to us why we have this misunderstanding, how we can overcome all of this, suzanne massey, personal adviser, this is your book, by the way, i recommend everybody to buy it and to read this book. is a deep, serious analysis of the situation. i think mchale gorbachev said it, he did not expect reagan to be so -- such a man of action. that is basically -- the key how to view relations. we can't verify, don't want to verify. so you know in literature throughout the cold war, shoul

want to focus on the sovereignty of state. russia is a state of power. they looked at the unitedstates as a revisionist power, largely because they think we are invested in regime change, that we want to go around changing governments that we don't like. one of the real limits is, the u.s. foreign-policy in general focus on the fact that we represent certain values. those include democratization, free-market, the rule of law, and human rights. we believe that we have the right to pursue those issues when we interact with other countries. russia does not see the world that way. it now says that the u.s. the case as the old communist state, trying to go around and recreate the world and its image. fundamentally one of the limits to the partnership is, if you are going to interact with a country like russia, a great power, do you focus on your mutual interests and try and pursue them, or do you focus on values, what is happening inside russian society? that is one of the very sore point that has been there throughout the 23 years since the soviets in the collapsed. >> host: this is

united states. when i was young when demonstrate against the vietnam war. he would always wanted to go back to russia in other words if you oppose u s government policy or obviously an agent of a foreign power. and to have our tea which is obviously a russian tv and has an editorial opinion. it also has contrasting points of view much more frequently than the american media but because it's there because it challenges the american narrative is considered to be extremely dangerous. they stated that this is the first casualty of all words the truth when american government knows that controlling the narrative controlling or fax the information carefully presented his kingdom there were no cold war against russia. pray for him until iris response to the attack on our teacher would ask about it at a news conference the commission. they key is ours and deploying pigeons propaganda ball holders joined kerry said referring to auntie festival it's not exactly polite to use expressions like that but i can understand why he said it will appeal to serious competition to cnn the bbc i guess the west in the vehic

from arms manufacturing and sales there are also the people who do not want decent relations between russia and the united states victoria nuland for example the cardinal sin. of poutine vade was their hope too that it states out of a very difficult situation with respect to syria the point is approaching bailed out the president the people who want to the war to continue in syria the neo cons were destroyed about it and so they're only putin one bit and they want to cause a hostile relationship between russia and the united states but obama and putin do have a relationship and i can see that working out for the better as people sit down as adults and negotiate this crisis it's funny is you know you mentioned the new talking to ron paul recently and he also told me a kind of same thinking said it's the hard liners who are influencing obama and they're the ones who want to have a american involvement in ukraine but why would they want that. well for two reasons one is because they want to create this hostile environment between moscow and washington that helps arms sales it helps arm sales to the former east euro
