LONDON (Reuters) -The new sanctions imposed by the United States on Russia will put more pressure on President Vladimir Putin, who is running out of money, troops and ideas, NATO chief Mark Rutte told reporters on Friday.

Rutte travelled to London to meet with leaders of the “Coalition of the Willing”, a group of countries supporting Ukraine.
