Permalink US Suspends Military Ties With Russia

In what US officials said was a “penalty” for Russia’s backing of Crimean secession from the Ukraine, the Obama Administration has suspended all military ties with Russia. Pentagon officials say that all military-to-military engagements, including joint exercises, meetings, and conferences have been placed “on hold” indefinitely.

The move is the first of what Obama Administration officials say will be a series of punitive actions designed to isolate Russia internationally, as well as economically. The Pentagon downplayed reports of ship movements in the region, saying they have not changed any military planning or operations as a result of the Crimea situation.
