USA Today, Telegraph, France24:<br \/>\nAt the close of a two-day NATO summit Friday, President Obama expressed doubts that new cease-fire in Ukraine would hold and promised a new round of sanctions to keep pressure on Russia to respect its neighbor&#8217;s borders&#8221;We are hopeful, but based on past experience also skeptical that in fact the separatists will follow through and that Russia will stop violating Ukraine&#8217;s sovereignty and territorial integrity,&#8221; Obama said. &#8220;It has to be tested.&#8221; He said Western sanctions need to be a stimulus for Russia to do everything for successful implementation of Minsk agreements. \u00abWe need to make it clear, those sanctions we took the previous Saturday in Brussels ought to be implemented. We need to look at the detail of that to make sure it happens. The sanctions will go ahead&#8230; if a ceasefire and a proper peace plan go ahead, then it would be right to see if sanctions can be lifted,\u201d British prime minister said. German Chancellor Angela Merkel: \u00abA Ceasefire was a ceasefire not because it had agreed. Many parallel processes need to occur. We need to check whether the truce is implemented or Russian troops in case they are present, they are being withdrawn, that buffer zones are created. Thus, it is possible sanctions may indeed be implemented, but with the restriction they can be suspended if de-escalation occurs,\u201d German Chancellor said.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.usatoday.com\/story\/news\/world\/2014\/09\/05\/ukraine-russia-cease-fire\/15117039\/\" target=\"_blank\"> www.usatoday.com <\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.telegraph.co.uk\/news\/worldnews\/europe\/ukraine\/11076683\/Ukraine-crisis-hopes-for-peace-at-Minsk-talks-as-fighting-continues-live.html\"target=\"_blank\"> www.telegraph.co.uk <\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.france24.com\/fr\/20140905-ukraine-pourparlers-cessez-le-feu-minsk-russie-porochenko-obama-hollande-poutine-donetsk-marioupol-\/\"target=\"_blank\"> www.france24.com <\/a><\/p>\n<p>SMART WEAPONS SUPPLY TO UKRAINE.<br \/>\nSeveral western newspapers underlines that by showing sympathy, NATO leaders distance themselves from Ukraine.
