did the deer turn? not long. and there are conflicting us. it is coming from washington and give about the threat of a russian invasion of ukraine. presidents lensky has cautioned the west against stroke stoking fears of russian military invasion. he said, war is not eminent. near the border with russia, ukrainian soldiers prepare for the worst. but behind the scenes, a flurry of diplomatic activity races to de escalate tensions. russia insisted it is not seeking war. in a press conference on friday, ukrainian president followed amid zalinski, also called for com, saying that panic was causing damage to the economy. pause. we need to establish the economy of our country because of those signals which said that to morrow there

will be war. because this signals will send by even respected to leaders of the respective countries of sometimes they are not even using diplomatic language. they sing to morrow is the war. this means panic on the market plan and can the financial sector. his comments come hours after a phone call between french president emanuel mac, ron and russian president vladimir putin, in which putin insisted that western responses had not addressed moscow's principal concerns. yet the cold did lead to some progress. the 2 leaders re committed to ease intentions through the normandy format. for way diplomatic talks between germany, russia, ukraine, and france. let's keep our reasons the ukranian president. welcome to the idea as a step towards coming tensions the but he also called on russia to prove its claims that it has no intention of invading ukraine. for now, tension on the border remains as high as ever. and as long as the risk of military

escalation lingers, the diplomatic dance will continue behind closed doors. and for more on this, i'm joined by andrew cartoon on the director general of the russian international affairs council. and thanks for joining us. after several weeks of talks, now president bowden is insisting that the responses from washington and the west have still not addressed moscow's principal concerns. does that mean russia is now prepared for armed conflict? you think? well, i wouldn't go said that a potential war in ukraine. the, the best directly on the responses that we didn't get. so from the worst, what ashley is doing at the border with ukraine, they supposed to deter, you've trained from taken a military action in don't boss a. so i don't think that even if they failed to agree on the non enlargement of native, that would mean that trash will attack ukraine because it makes no sense and attacked

on ukraine would not change the native lance of, for a potential expansion. these are 2 different sets of issues. so the america, the russian military build up on the border has nothing to do with preventing eto expansion. is that what you're saying? you're saying there's no connection? absolutely, i think that the, the russian build up will not prevent a native from a goal eastward. on the contrary, it might go more activities of nate on the territory ukraine, and it will mean that it will generate events which witness time to award. so why should she do that? yeah, well, i guess many people are asking that question just to come to present intrusion as we heard in that report. he met with french president her imagined nicole and agreed there is a need for, for the escalation which many parties involved were saying could that involve it in your estimation, speaking from moscow and removing some russian troops from the ukrainian border?

i hope so. i think that definitely they cannot keep all his troops of the crating buddha for ever. that there should be some limits. and i hope that via withdrawal, especially i, you know, there is a resumption of the means roses as you probably know of. there was a meeting, a couple of days ago, me to know elliptical representatives of the for, for residence. and they decided that they would continue a meeting or discuss an implications or the means agreements are for the situation on the ground. so i do quote that we are back on track with means, which would be a major accomplishment. and if so, i think the concerns interact with the traffic that you train. my did wait, don't boss tomorrow will ease and that would make the rush in presence of the you create board on necessary. i was and a quarter of their, from the russian international affairs council in moscow to cassock sand now,
