EU Approves Sanctions on Ukraine
There has been a lot of violence in Ukraine in the past week due to findings about some of its leadership, and sanctions had been made against them. These sanctions include asset freezes, visa bans for those responsible, and a ban on exports while the ban on arms was dropped. The EU officials said it was not likely that the Ukraine's top leaders would be hit with sanctions right now, but if the situation continues to worsen, more leaders will be sanctioned.

Asset freezes and visa bans have been successful at forcing the government to withdraw police and military forces. With that said, sanctions put on by the EU and the US have been delayed and should have gone into an effect earlier, which would have prevented mass killings.
