Tuesday’s talks in the German capital come a day after Washington put 8,500 troops on heightened alert for possible deployment to Eastern Europe.
Other NATO member states also moved to boost their presence in the region. Russia has massed some 100,000 troops within reach of Ukraine’s border, surrounding its neighbor with forces from the north, east, and south.
The Kremlin denies planning an invasion and Moscow cites the Western response as evidence that Russia is the target, not the instigator, of aggression.
