Lavrov tells Kerry sanctions ‘will not remain without consequences’

PanARMENIAN.Net - Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov told U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry that Western sanctions were "unacceptable" and "will not remain without consequences", the ministry said in a statement on Tuesday, March 18, according to Reuters.

The two senior diplomats spoke by telephone hours after President Vladimir Putin signed a treaty in the Kremlin making Ukraine's Crimea peninsula part of Russia, despite an outcry from Kiev and the West.
