U.S/Ukraine - Russia war

http://world.einnews.com/article/269129333/i6zzzQW6EvK9Sr_3 Earlier today, I saw a tweet of Putin saying he will go to war if sanctions are not lifted(can't seem to refind it).  Now, the whitehouse looks to be saying they will not lift sanctions.- There is also a report of U.S/European leaders holding a strategy meeting, http://world.einnews.com/article/269131261/ig8QnkYoeMDhgMsv -  Here's a bit of a picture, I had also seen earlier today a military exercise of like 5000 troops and 40 + ships.  This is probably a picture of that!  Here's a link for the boltops operation, http://rt.com/news/265021-nato-baltops-exercise-baltic/
