the diplomatic arm wrestling continues between Russia and the United States

Russia continues to show the muscles and ensures that it is she who is threatened, while the Russian Foreign Minister and his American counterpart are to meet on Friday January 21 in Geneva (Switzerland). Moscow criticizes in particular the delivery of Western weapons to Ukraine. At the end of last week, a senior Russian diplomat said that the negotiations were blocked.

And yet, Russia is back at the discussion table, in particular because this allows it to appear in front of the United States, in the forefront on the international scene. Moscow wants security guarantees: to prevent Ukraine from joining NATO. It looks a lot like dividing up the world. Are the Russians ready to go as far as a military invasion in Ukraine? Or are these measures of intimidation? This is the whole question, explains the journalist from France Télévisions Luc Lacroix.
