KIEV (Reuters) - The United States has seen nothing so far that corroborates Russian allegations of a Ukrainian incursion into Crimea, the U.S. ambassador to Ukraine, Geoffrey Pyatt, said on Thursday.

Pyatt also said U.S. sanctions in relation to Russia's annexation of Crimea would remain in place until the territory was returned to Ukraine.
