well, let's bring in stacy beavens, who's in the studio for us. what more can you tell us about this, the state department order? well, the state department is not calling an evacuation. they say that this has been in the works for some time. but when you look at it on its face, it looks like the u. s. is very concerned about probable military action from moscow. you see the military lining up or all along the border. so they're concerned about that. and so they're not saying that people have to leave, but they're urging american citizens whether they work for the embassy or not to leave. and what is the significance of the timing around this? we know that they've overseas sent in more military equipment as well. right. and they're the state department sent out a bulletin saying that there are reports that russia is planning significant military action against ukraine. so that's why the u. s. is sending in weapons and such and they also don't want to get flat footed,

2:05 am
and i can tell you that the germans very much, i'm sure our concerns and our resolute and being a determined are to respond to respond swiftly effectively. and in the united way. up to a $100000.00 russian troops have amassed at ukraine's boulders over recent months with moscow demanding that ukraine will never be allowed to join nato. putin is also denied. he is planning to talk. but those living on ukraine's frontier with russia a fall from reassured with life on the edge of something very terrible is caring. so yes, i can say i'm of scale for now. daily life continues, which is a political temperatures plummet. people here all to away how quickly, but could all change?

well, let's bring in michael kim edge. he's a history professor at the catholic university of america and a former state department, russia, ukraine, experts under president obama. well, it's good, great to have you with us here. and d, w. news. what's your assessment of the situation? is there a real threat that russia could invade ukraine? oh, certainly i think there is the capacity. is there in a sense, the motive is there for russia, where you can see that russia is looking for at the moment is that is the pretext. and the question now seems to be more one of the timing of whether or not this is going to happen. and now that we've seen the u. s. and other countries sending in more military aid to ukraine. how much of a deterrence would this be for russia? i think quite modest. i think if we were to speak of true deterrence, we would speak of air power and a western commitment of troops. and there's not a single government from washington to london to berlin, to brussels. that's it,
2:07 am
that's willing to do that. so it's important. symbolically is important for the brain, people in the government, but it's probably not much of the military factor. now, when it comes to japanese position, the country is being accused by ukraine's government of not showing enough support compared to its other nato allies. would you say there's any truth in that? i don't, i think that, you know, looking back historically, back to 2014 with his grades began. germany was a crucial part of the sanctions regime. and i think in the coming complex germany will be part of the sanctions regime. it's been driven policy for a long time, going back to america, not to be involved militarily. so that's really germany sovereign choice and it doesn't indicate german indifference or lack of engagement. well, the current sense at the moment is that diplomacy is not dead yet. so what are your projections for the upcoming talks? we're going to be seeing this week. i think the chance rec implemented success and

it's good to keep hammering away at it. but it's vanishingly small. and it looks like the rushing demand are waiting on line from the west perspective. and so one imagines when the response is given the west, that it will not yield that russia is gonna sort of move to a different phase of the conflict. michael, can i just thank you very much for your time. thank you for having me though, as ukraine gets more military age in response to russia's build up of troops, other european countries also making moves to counter the tensions. the idea like island of god, land in sweden is seen tanks and troops rolling through normally quiet streets behind the historic fortress walls of the islands capital, vis be life. looks like a film set. got bond is a popular baltic vacation destination. but in recent days, military patrols have been stepped up here. the tanks and heavily armed soldiers
