The Russian president Vladimir Putin intervened in Ukraine and granted them asylum.The US says Russia tested a new ground-launched cruise missile, breaking the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty that President Ronald Reagan signed with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev. President Obama notified Putin of the US determination in a letter then held top discussions with them on the issue. Both presidents signed a treaty assuring the US that Russia will come back into compliance with its treaty obligations. Even after the new treaty, they found evidence that Russia violated the agreement. In raising the issue now, the US appears to be placing increased pressure on Russia and trying to further isolate it from the international community.The European Union and the United States plan to announce new sanctions against Russia this week in the face of US evidence that Russia has continued to help separatist forces in Ukraine.
