LONDON (Reuters) - Britain said on Saturday that a range of further sanctions were available for use against Russia following the downing of a Malaysian aircraft, and the country's defence minister urged Moscow to "get out of Ukraine."

"There's a range of other sanctions available, cutting off more links with Russia. He (Russian President Vladimir Putin) needs to trade with the West and relies on the City of London," Defence Minister Michael Fallon told the Mail on Sunday in an article published on the newspaper's website late on Saturday.
