U.S. President Barack Obama said on
Monday that the West needed to uphold the sanctions it has imposed against
Russia over the Ukraine crisis until Moscow fully implements the so-called
Minsk peace agreement.
"I want good relations with
Russia and have invested a lot in good relations with Russia but we need to
keep sanctions on Russia in place until Russia fully implements the Minsk
agreements," he said during a visit to a trade fair in Hanover.
