What cannot be done is for Russia with impunity to put its soldiers on the ground and violate basic principles that are recognized around the world. And I think the strong condemnation that it's received from countries around the world indicates the degree which Russia is on the wrong side of history on this.

Ultimatums have come and gone here without incident. This time according to the Ukrainian side, a deadline has been set for Tuesday morning. The Russian said there had been no such threat. Utter nonsense was the phrase Moscow used. But no doubt the pressure is building on those who resist in these Ukrainian bases. In Sevastopol, a cargo ship has now been maneuvered into the mouth of the harbor. Beyond it we can see minesweepers patrolling the bay. It underlines the relentless buildup of Russian forces.

根据乌克兰方面的说法，最后通牒不断下达，最后期限定于周二早上。俄罗斯则表示完全没有这种威胁。莫斯科称，这完全是一派胡言。但是毫无疑问，坚守乌克兰阵地的士兵面临的压力不断增加。在塞瓦斯托波尔港口，一艘货轮被调往港口入口处，此外，我们可以看到扫雷艇在海湾巡逻。这进一步证明俄罗斯军队在不断增加。
