Under fire, Putin leaves G-20 early to get some sleep
President Obama on Sunday accused Russian President Vladimir Putin of not following the "letter or the spirit" of a ceasefire agreement between Ukraine and pro-Russian rebels.
"We're also very firm on the need to uphold core international principles," Obama said at the close of the G-20 summit in Australia. "One of those principles is that you don't invade other countries or finance proxies and support them in ways that break up a country that has mechanisms for democratic elections."
