The Brussels meeting is the final gathering of high-ranking government officials before the summit of NATO’s leaders scheduled for September in Wales. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and his colleagues are expected to fine tune the summit’s agenda on a wide array of topics, from how to redeploy NATO’s forces in response to Russian capabilities and actions to what to do in Afghanistan when NATO’s combat mission in that country comes to an end this December. (AP Photo/Virginia Mayo) MOSCOW (AP) — On Russian President Vladimir Putin's demand, the upper house of Russian parliament on Wednesday canceled a resolution allowing the use of military in Ukraine, a move intended to show Moscow's eagerness to de-escalate tensions and avoid a new round of Western sanctions.
