As 30 die in Mariupol we ask will punishing Russia with sanctions bring an end to the attacks in eastern Ukraine? Or, is the West misunderstanding the extent of Putin's resolve in the region? And in the end, how much money will the West have to spend to underpin the indebted Ukrainian economy? Sir Rodric Braithwaite, former UK Ambassador to Russia, Michael Calvey senior partner with Baring Vostok one of the biggest firms investing into Russia, Philippa 'Pippa' Malmgren one time special assistant on Economic Policy on the National Economic Council in the Bush administration and currently founder of DRPM Group and Erik Berglöf the former chief economist of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development consider the direction of travel for policy, and the stability it might deliver for the people of Ukraine and Russia?
