Ukraine's actions against pro-Russian militiamen in the country's eastern region are called for because of the threat to law and order in the country, the White House said on Tuesday.
"The Ukrainian government has the responsibility to provide law and order and these provocations in eastern Ukraine are creating a situation in which the government has to respond," White House spokesman Jay Carney said at a briefing.



The United States is "seriously considering" new sanctions against Russia, but is not considering providing lethal aid to Ukraine, he said.

The White House said Tuesday that Ukraine's actions against pro-Russian separatists in the country's eastern region are called for because of the threat to law and order in the country.
"The Ukrainian government has the responsibility to provide law and order and these provocations in eastern Ukraine are creating a situation in which the government has to respond,'' White House spokesman Jay Carney said at a briefing.

The U.S. official said President Obama is "seriously considering'' new sanctions against Russia, but is not considering providing lethal aid to Ukraine at this time. He said the focus remains on diplomatic efforts to get Russia to stop supporting secessionist efforts in Ukraine.

Carney repeated U.S. warnings for Russia to pull back its troops from its border with Ukraine and engage in dialogue with the Ukrainian government.

He called the situation a dangerous and volatile one, and commended Ukraine for what he said has been its “measured” response................................
