   EU nations announce expulsion of selected Russian banks from SWIFT   
      
   France, Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom and Canada, announced Saturday   
   evening that they would expel certain Russian banks from SWIFT, the   
   high-security network that connects thousands of financial institutions   
   around the world, pledging to "collectively ensure that this war is a   
   strategic failure for (Russian President Vladimir) Putin."   
      
   The statement still leaves the actual technical details -- and the specific   
   Russian lenders that will be cut off from SWIFT -- unclear, with EU   
   officials still in the midst of hammering out the final details of the   
   action.
