directly to stop their actions in ukraine. that s right. i can t imagine even if there was some russian complicity in this that it was intentional, but it doesn t really matter. russia is playing a brutal game that it shouldn t be involved in and now is the moment to try to get them to stop and bring the full brunt of possible large scale western sanctions to bear as a threat. thank you so much for being with us. as it s been a hectic morning here at cnn covering major stories developing all around the world. i m joined now by cnn jake tapper, host of qoes the lead. it strikes me that 48 hours ago, we were talking about the immigration crisis at the worder. that was overwhelming all the discussion in washington. 30 hours ago we were talking about a new round of sanctions from the u.s. against vladimir putin in russia. so many balls in the air, so many crises for this white house
