President Obama was a little cagey early yesterday in finger-pointing or assigning blame… but later in the day, he was clear that Putin and Russia were responsible. This morning we are told that the US “believes” it was pro-Russian separatists “maybe.” We await President Obama’s statement (and hopefully Q&A) this morning as he explains the situation in Ukraine… and how he won’t stand for it any longer. Despite Russia signing energy and investment deals with numerous nations around the world and being at the hub of the creation of the BRICS Bank, we are sure President Obama will dictate how isolated Russia is becoming (despite Europe’s “fold” on further sanctions for fear of retaliation).
The President is due to speak at 1130ET…
