Dutch PM: EU Summit Won't Bring New Russian Sanctions

European Union leaders will not agree to new sanctions against Russia during their two-day summit starting Thursday, Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte said.

"I do not expect concrete new sanctions today," Rutte said on arrival for the meeting of the bloc's 27 national leaders.

"We can't brainstorm about sanctions with such a broad group, we need proposals. We have already imposed a lot of sanctions, we are now entering more complex terrain."
