BERLIN (Reuters) - The German government sees no substantial changes in the situation in Crimea, the Ukrainian region occupied by Russia, that would avoid sanctions against Moscow or permit a summit of G8 leaders in Sochi due in June to go ahead, Chancellor Angela Merkel's spokesman said on Wednesday.

"The German government continues to view the situation in Ukraine as alarming," said the chancellor's spokesman, Steffen Seibert, describing the situation in Crime as "unacceptable".
