GENEVA (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said on Thursday there would be additional sanctions on Russia if it did not act within days to calm tensions in Ukraine, where the West accuses Moscow of fomenting separatist unrest.

"These next days will be very important to making judgements," Kerry told reporters. "If there is not progress over the course of these next days, and we don't see a movement in the right direction, then there will be additional sanctions, additional costs as a consequence."
