So many people, so many of the people sitting here today know that well, unfortunately. They know what its like when the seconds change your life forever. I have had the pleasure of getting to meet in awful circumstances many of you who have lost your children, husbands, wives. They know what its like to bury a piece of their soul deep in the earth. We understand that. Mark and jackie, i want to tell you, its always good to see you, but not under these circumstances.

Office says a deal was reached with Vladimir Putin but a minute later a senior putin spokesman rejected that claim and there was doubt expressed any ceasefire would hold. President obama made clear any hope of peace lies with the russians.
