France says President Francois Hollande has spoken with his U.S. counterpart, Barack Obama, about further Western sanctions against Russia.
An April 14 statement released by Hollande's office said the two presidents shared concerns about recent violence in eastern Ukraine, where pro-Russian groups have seized and occupied government buildings.
Hollande said he hoped a meeting planned for April 17 with representatives from Ukraine, Russia, the United States, and the European Union could "start a dialogue" to ease tensions.
Hollande also discussed possible future measures against Moscow with British Prime Minister David Cameron.
Western states have threatened to impose further sanctions on Russia over last month's annexation of Crimea and the Kremlin's suspected role in supporting pro-Russian protesters in eastern Ukraine.
