did your chief international affairs editor richard walker joins us now? richard, were these talks doomed from the get go? what layla and i don't think so. i mean, we've had a really intense weak of diplomacy, but it was never really to be expected that you would have some kind of massive breakthrough after these initial meetings. we, if we pull back and have a look at what we have here, as we saw in the report earlier, we've had russia massing troops alongside the border with ukraine. then kind of pinning the presence of those troops on the border to a set of demands making that it's making to the west, which would really kind of re architect the entire security setup of europe. trying to make demands, such as that nato not expand any further to the east or to rule out forever, ukraine joining nato. now this is an incredibly difficult thing for nato to consider. essentially, it crosses a red line because one of the principles of nato, as an alliance of democracies, is that every sovereign state has the right to choose its own alliances. so these are the ki
