russia has a gun to the head of ukraine with a 100000 troops near its borders, the possibility of doubling that on very short order. so if we're seeing the escalation, if we're seeing a reduction tensions that is the kind of environment in which we could make real progress. and again, address concerns, reasonable concerns on both sides. but i mean, some does not go to the same because it's the americans should get ready to reach a compromise. the russian side came here with a clear position containing a number of elements, not to my mind understandable and have been so clearly formulated, including at a high level that deviating from out approach is simply not possible ahead of the talks for testers, martsen ukraine's capital. here, there is growing alarm over russia deployment of troops to the border on speculation over president prisons next move. they also voice their anger against moscow, support to the contact government and crushing massive protests. demonstrators appealed for strong support from the u. s. and other allies. world leaders will be

exec, drawn in their response to a russian aggression and the army on the border needs strengthen our lives and our dream. she ever thompson has more from washington. the russian, deputy foreign minister said that the prisoners per preliminary talks is very wide ranging talks that they had over dinner were complex. but this is like the out of that, this is report to them, the russian, russian media say my translation. i mean, you know, i'm not entirely sure, but it says he does, the russian w farmer said he doesn't think you will be a waste of time in vain hopes will be a waste of time in vain or something very about in translation. so that's quite interesting. and actually blinking, despite that sort of rhetoric that we hear from him all the time. and you know, they all be severe cost, russia and so on. he did give some sort of understanding of the parameters of the talk. so least aware. initially the u. s. seems to sound because they have said

that we have these russian red lines, get us miss 1000. and i was out of the area around the russian borders and reduce the military footprint of nature close to in eastern europe. now the us is that it is willing to talk about future deployments of the cells and it has been talking about liberating nature military, the size of the valley. and lincoln was quite relatively specific about what do you mean by that? in some of the interviews, even giving on sunday. so he was talking about reviving the intermediate nuclear forces. so this is the treaty, the bound, the deployment in europe, or in russia of medium range nuclear missiles. and that was scrapped on the trump. and so when he was talking about revising that treaty, and he's also talking about revising an agreement on the deployment of conventional forces in europe to keep military exercises from, from, from russia's border. so that's some, some leeway there, robert hunter, as

a former us ambassador to nieto and he thinks we're seeing the beginning of the end of the diplomatic crisis between the us and russia. we are now a little from a time where it is really dominated by threats and moment particular by the russians are military equipment and men to a time when they're sitting down to the table and talking about it. i think both sides no more or less what they want here and i'm going to be working together. and i expect the crisis in the not just in future is going to seem to be the crisis that has been i don't expect the russians to take any more action against your group and they have already done and are doing their job. they might carry on with cyber that might killer with energy was the idea of actually putting more tropes in and evading different parts of your grants would be absolutely stupid on the part of mr. brewer and he's not stupid. he's actually very smart. what he's done is he

bided his time and tell russia, regained a good, you know, of the power that it's lost in the cohort. it's now got a lot of military power. he's usually in a way to try to be intimidating. mr. by mark. doctor, she says, we're not going to use force, but there are things to do and for the united states. the most important thing in terms of our protecting our allies and working with our friends, is to get the rest to remove the troops from the frontier in terms of countries joining nato. i do wish to limit already. it was never a possibility, never a possibility that ukraine would join nato, the unrest, and carfax don is also expected to be on the table. during the talks, the u. s. says question, the presence of russian peacekeeping troops helping the government to quote massive protests, more than 5000 people have been detained since the unrest began. robin for
