BRUSSELS, Rabi'II 7, 1436, Jan 27, 2015, SPA -- European Union leaders are threatening fresh sanctions against Russia because of what it sees as "growing support" of Moscow for separatists in eastern Ukraine during intensified fighting over the past days, AP reported. In Tuesday's rare joint declaration outside their regular summit meetings, the 28 leaders asked an extraordinary meeting of EU foreign ministers on Thursday "to consider any appropriate action, in particular on further restrictive measures" if the situation in eastern Ukraine does not improve fast. --SPA 13:57 LOCAL TIME 10:57 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
