Diplomatic frenzy: How to prevent Russian invasion of Ukraine?

THE DEBATE © FRANCE 24

After Moscow and Kiev, Emmanuel Macron is in Berlin to huddle over Ukraine. The French president's host is also fresh off the plane. German chancellor Olaf Scholz is just back from Washington to host Macron and his Polish counterpart Andrzej Duda. We find out if the three are on the same page, what with 100,000-plus Russian troops still surrounding Ukraine on three sides.

Macron and Vladimir Putin are talking up areas where compromise might be possible. How did the French leader's good cop routine in Moscow go down in Kiev? And what is the right road to de-escalation?

Produced by Alessandro Xenos, Juliette Laurain and Louise Guibert.
