US warns of more sanctions against Russia over Ukraine
"We have additional tools and sanctions that we can
certainly choose to put in place," State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki
said, who said those options would be discussed with NATO allies.
"A military solution is not what we think is the
appropriate approach so we are taking every tool that we can to see if we can
reach a solution here through diplomatic means," she added, according to AFP.
NATO said Thursday that at least 1,000 Russian troops were
on the ground in eastern
"Our focus remains on non-lethal assistance -- we have
provided a range of non-lethal assistance as have a number of other countries
in Europe ," Psaki said.
"We have not ruled out options. Obviously, there are a
range of requests we have and that the National Security Council team can
certainly consider, but I have no update or predictions for you at this
point," she said.
