Talks To Defuse Russia-Ukraine Tensions Resolve Little

NEW YORK, UKRAINE - JANUARY 17: Ukrainian soldiers walk in a trench near the front line on January 17, 2022 in the village of New York, formerly known as Novhorodske, Ukraine. Negotiations last week between Russian and Western diplomats, who were hoping to defuse the prospect of a Russian invasion of Ukraine, ended inconclusively. In recent months, Russia has amassed forces and military equipment near the Ukrainian border, raising the specter of a possible invasion of the country's east, where separatists have waged a nearly 8-year war against the Ukrainian government.
