There is still time and space for diplomacy,\u201d said Austin.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-o5gy41\">\u201cMr Putin can do the right thing as well,\u201d he said. \u201cThere is no reason that this situation has to devolve into conflict. He can choose to de-escalate. He can order his troops away.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-o5gy41\">On Friday, US president Joe Biden said he would send a small number of US troops to eastern European and Nato countries \u201cin the near term\u201d.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-o5gy41\">The Pentagon has already placed about 8,500 US troops on stand-by for possible deployment to Europe amid Russia\u2019s military build-up near Ukraine\u2019s border.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-o5gy41\">\u201cI\u2019ll be moving troops to eastern Europe and the Nato countries in the near term.

Photograph: Joshua Roberts\/Reuters<\/figure>\n<p class=\"dcr-o5gy41\">It comes as Vladimir Putin gave his first public comments on US and Nato responses to Russian proposals to rewrite the post-cold war security architecture. Putin said the US and its Nato allies had ignored Russia\u2019s main security concerns, but promised to continue talks with the west, in a call with Emmanuel Macron. <\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-o5gy41\">The Russian leader said Moscow\u2019s concerns about the expansion of Nato and the deployment of strike weapons near its borders had not been taken into account, according to a Kremlin readout of the phone call with his French counterpart.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-o5gy41\">Macron told Putin that Russia had to respect the sovereignty of states, according to the \u00c9lys\u00e9e. Putin agreed to continue talks, so there was a feeling that \u201cthings have moved\u201d, a French presidency official said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-o5gy41\">More than 100,000 Russian troops have massed at the border with Ukraine, prompting Biden to tell Zelenskiy on Thursday there was \u201ca distinct possibility that the Russians could invade Ukraine in February\u201d.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-o5gy41\">Asked about the call, Zelenskiy said he did not consider the situation more tense than before. \u201cThere is a feeling abroad that there is war here. That\u2019s not the case,\u201d he said. \u201cI am not saying an escalation is not possible \u2026 [but] we don\u2019t need this panic.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-o5gy41\">Europeans have taken a more cautious approach to predictions of a Russian attack than Washington. The head of Germany\u2019s foreign intelligence service said on Friday that Russia was not yet fixed on an invasion, although it was prepared. \u201cI believe that the decision to attack has not yet been made,\u201d Bruno Kahl told Reuters.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-o5gy41\">In a call with Macron lasting longer than an hour, Putin said the US and Nato had not taken into account Moscow\u2019s \u201cfundamental concerns\u201d about the expansion of Nato and deployment of strike missiles near the Russian border.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"166445af-b345-4c25-aa18-2c8f65802c1d\" class=\"dcr-10khgmf\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"&#039;A resort of ghosts&#039;: on the Ukraine frontline waiting for war again - video \" height=\"259\" width=\"460\" class=\"dcr-1989ovb lazyload\"><noscript><img alt=\"&#039;A resort of ghosts&#039;: on the Ukraine frontline waiting for war again - video \" height=\"259\" width=\"460\" class=\"dcr-1989ovb\"><\/noscript>07:13&#8217;A resort of ghosts&#8217;: on the Ukraine frontline waiting for war again &#8211; video <\/figure>\n<p class=\"dcr-o5gy41\">Washington and European capitals rejected Russia\u2019s demands to veto Ukraine\u2019s Nato membership, but set out proposals on other ways to improve security on the continent in the unpublished documents.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"ab3b6030-2cf7-4cd9-910f-81a335b7beb5\" class=\"dcr-1mfia18\">\u2018Putin only understands strength\u2019: Estonian PM on Ukraine tensions<\/figure>\n<p class=\"dcr-o5gy41\">\u201cThe key question was ignored,\u201d Putin was reported to have said, according to the Kremlin statement. The Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe and Russia\u2019s relationship with Nato, the Russian president went on to say, were based on the principle that \u201cno one should strengthen their security at the expense of other countries\u201d.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-o5gy41\">The Russian leader also promised to \u201ccarefully study\u201d the US and Nato written responses and continue a \u201cRussian-French dialogue on the entire range of European security questions\u201d.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-o5gy41\">Putin told the French leader Russia would continue talks in the so-called Normandy format that brings together representatives from France, Germany, Ukraine and Russia, following talks earlier this week between the quartet of countries.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-o5gy41\">Putin told Macron that the French president was \u201cthe only one who he could have such serious discussions with\u201d, according to the French presidency source.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-o5gy41\">There was \u201cdisagreement, but agreement in the necessity for dialogue and that the Europeans and France are part of the ongoing dialogue\u201d, said the French official. \u201cDialogue is difficult and there were no solutions from this call.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-o5gy41\">The French president has long called for dialogue with Russia, sometimes angering other EU member states that have preferred a more distanced approach.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-o5gy41\">Late Friday, British prime minister Boris Johnson said he was planning to visit the Ukraine region and hold crisis talks with Putin next week.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-o5gy41\"><em>The Associated Press and Agence-France Press contributed to this report<\/em><\/p>\n<p><!--noindex--><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/world\/2022\/jan\/29\/us-warns-russia-conflict-with-ukraine-would-be-horrific-as-tensions-simmer\">Source<\/a><!--\/noindex--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Top US officials call for diplomacy to address Russian military buildup on the Ukraine border, saying conflict is \u2018not inevitable\u2019 More than 100,000 Russian troops have massed at the border with Ukraine.
