Just hours after Russian and Crimean leaders signed a treaty incorporating the Black SeaPeninsula into the Russian Federation, there have been clashes at a military base in Simferopol.The Ukrainian military says one of its servicemen has been killed and another injured. TheDefence Ministry has now given servicemen the right to use weapons to protect themselves. InKiev, Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk said the conflict over Crimea had moved from a politicalto a military stage. He described the annexation as a war crime.

“Now the conflict is shifting from a political to a military phase. Russian soldiers have startedshooting at Ukrainian servicemen. ”

Ukraine had said it would never recognize Crimea joining the Russian Federation.

The United States has condemned Russia's intervention in Crimea, calling it a land grab and acontinuing assault on Ukrainian sovereignty. The American Secretary of State John Kerry saidPresident Obama could not stand by and do nothing.

“The President has made it clear that if there is this move to the full annexation which appearsto be clearly the direction that they have decided to move, it will be unfortunate. And it will notbe, because we want to create some kind of confrontation, but because there is no choice butto enforce the standards that the international community has worked on for so long.”

The US is promising further sanctions against Russia, a day after targeting the finances ofseven senior Russian officials. David Willis reports from Washington.

President Obama's decision to impose asset freezes and travel bans on nearly a dozenRussian and Ukrainian officials led to a mockery from some of those involved, including Russia'sdeputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin, who took to Twitter to point out that he didn't haveproperty or a bank account overseas. However Jay Carney told reporters that the sanctionswere costing Russia, and confirmed the administration was looking to target those closest tothe Russian government and Russian arms dealers in a further round of measures.

The Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said the sanctions that had already been imposedwere unacceptable and threatened consequences. In a speech at the Kremlin, President Putinstrongly defended Russia's annexation of Crimea, and called on the United States to stopwhat he called the hysteria and rhetoric of the Cold War.
