PARIS---French President Francois Hollande said Monday that hard-hitting Western sanctions against Russia should be lifted if progress was made on resolving the Ukraine crisis.
"I think the sanctions must stop now. They must be lifted if there is progress. If there is no progress, the sanctions will remain," he said during an interview with France Inter radio station.
