Russia stands alone,President Barack Obama said in Brussels on Wednesday.It was alone in the UN.If anyone in Russia thought they could drive a wedge between the EU and the United States,they were mistaken.Russia's actions aren't just about one country;they're about the kind of world we want.
We have gone through some very rocky waters;through these difficult times,we've been able to strengthen the relationship.On the sanctions,so far what we've seen is excellent coordination between the United States and Europe.What we're now doing is coordinating deeper sanctions should Russia move further into Ukraine.We're taking the impact of sanctions on Europe into account.Giving Europe more gas is not gonna happen overnight.Our energy ministers are committed to doing that.That is their assignment coming out of the G7 meeting.
Our publics have legitimate questions about the trade deals.Because of the trade relationship,we've created millions of jobs on both sides,and growth and prosperity have flourished.Its important to us as leaders to see that others beside the elite few benefit from trade deals,and I think we can shape them in such a way to ensure that.*
Captain Allison Norris of the Royal Australian Navy said HMAS Success was prepared to pick up debris from the Indian Ocean,should it prove to be from the lost flight MH-370.Radar would not be able to detect objects that close to the ship,so lookouts with binoculars and night vision devices are being posted.It's very cold-we rotate the lookouts every hour.Any debris we find would have to be returned to shore,the captain noted.*
Australia is in charge of the search operation,giving assignments to the mutinational units.The search was called off again Thursday on account of bad weather.Six military and five civilian aircraft were scheduled to search,along with Australian and Chinese ships.
