美国白宫宣布冻结11名俄罗斯官员的资产,说他们跟政治推动克里米亚脱离乌克兰、致使克里米亚可能被俄罗斯吞并有关联。
奥巴马政府星期一宣布了制裁决定。此前,欧盟决定对俄罗斯和乌克兰的21名官员实行旅行和贸易制裁。
此举是对克里米亚星期一宣布脱离乌克兰,并计划申请加入俄罗斯做出的回应。一天前克里米亚举行全民公投,绝大多数选民赞成加入俄罗斯联邦。之后,克里米亚议会宣布克里米亚地区独立。
此外,北约星期一发表声明,称克里米亚公投是“非法和不正当”的。声明说,公投违反了乌克兰宪法和国际法,还说,公投举行的条件存在“严重缺陷,因此是不可接受的。”
克里米亚不顾国际社会的反对,星期一派出代表团前往莫斯科,就加入俄罗斯联邦所需要的其它程序进行磋商。
与此同时,乌克兰议会批准对预备役人员进行局部动员,以应对目前的危机。
The White House has declared a freeze on assets of 11 Russian officials linked to the political push for Crimea's independence from Ukraine and possible annexation by Russia.
The Obama administration announced the sanctions Monday following the European Union, which designated 21 officials from Russia and Ukraine for travel bans and trade sanctions.
The moves came in response to Crimea's declaration of independence from Ukraine Monday and it plans to apply to become part of Russia. Crimea's regional assembly declared independence for the region after a referendum on Sunday indicated voters' overwhelming support for joining the Russian Federation.
In addition to responses from the U.S. and the European Union, NATO released a statement Monday calling the vote "illegal and illegitimate." It said the vote violates the Ukrainian constitution and international law, and added that the circumstances under which the referendum was held were "deeply flawed and therefore unacceptable."
Despite objections from the international community, a delegation of Crimean lawmakers is traveling to Moscow Monday to discuss additional procedures required to become part of the Russian Federation.
Ukraine's parliament has approved a partial mobilization of reservists in response to the crisis.
