BOB SCHIEFFER: What would we do if the Russians’ forces started rolling into other parts of Ukraine?
CHUCK HAGEL: Well, I won’t get into the different specific options but this could be a very dangerous situation if this continues in a very provocative way. We have many options like any nations do. We’re trying to deal with diplomatic focus that’s the appropriate, responsible approach. And that’s what we’re going to continue doing.
BOB SCHIEFFER: But we do have a plan?
CHUCK HAGEL: Well, we have plans for everything all the time.
BOB SCHIEFFER: When you come right down to it what can we really do there?
CHUCK HAGEL: Well, again, we’ve got different options but for right now the responsible thing is to continue to work through the diplomatic channels and that’s what we’re doing.
