华盛顿—在俄罗斯步步实现其对克里米亚的吞并时，美国必须后退，欧洲必须向前，而国际社会必须保证让俄罗斯为其作为付出经济和政治代价，同时俄罗斯和乌克兰民族主义者不会让双方陷入致命的暴力循环。
WASHINGTON, DC – As Russia’s annexation of Crimea proceeds, the United States must step back; the European Union must step forward; and the international community must ensure both that Russia pays a steep economic and political price for its actions, and that Russian and Ukrainian nationalists do not lock both sides into a deadly spiral of violence.
