President Obama called a host of world leaders to
discuss military tensions in Ukraine, White House
officials said Saturday.
Obama spoke by phone with leaders Britain, France, Italy,
Lithuania,
Latvian and Estonia
during a weekend trip to Key Largo,
Fla.
The White House said Obama's counterparts
agreed with the U.S.'s
position that Russia
should remove its troops from Crimea, which is located in the Black Sea peninsula of Ukraine.
They also consented on the formation of a
group to lead direct talks between Russia
and Ukraine
to de-escalate unrest, the White House said in a statement.
"The leaders rejected the proposed
referendum in Crimea as a violation of Ukraine’s
constitution and underscored that all decisions about the future of Ukraine must
include the government in Kyiv," the statement continued. "The
leaders made clear that Russia’s
continued violation of international law will isolate it from the international
community."
U.S. and European officials have introduced
sanctions against Russia
after troops from the country attempted to take control of Ukraine's
peninsula.
Russian leaders have denied responsibility
for the situation, arguing that the troops that are in Crimea
are not officially members of their military.
