SYDNEY, November 14. /TASS/. British Prime Minister David Cameron said Friday the decision to lift or extend sanctions against Russia depends on Moscow’ s position on the Ukrainian crisis.

“If Russia takes a positive approach towards Ukraine's freedom and responsibility, we could see those sanctions removed, if Russia continues to make matters worse, then we could see those sanctions increased,” Cameron, who is in Australia to take part in the G20 summit, due November 15-16 in Brisbane, told journalists.

The positions of Russia and Western nations on the Ukrainian developments differ radically. Russia has repeatedly denied any involvement in the intra-Ukrainian crisis, but the West accuses Moscow of participation in clashes in Ukraine’s war-torn southeast and has subjected Russia to sanctions.
