German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has arrived in Ukraine in the latest diplomatic push aimed at preventing a feared Russian invasion.
Monday’s visit comes as Western countries withdraw staff from their embassies in Kyiv, with many of them also urging their citizens to leave immediately.
Meanwhile, United States President Joe Biden and his Ukrainian counterpart, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, have reiterated their commitment to pursuing diplomacy to ease tensions, as Washington’s national security adviser warned that Moscow was looking to find a “pretext” for an attack.
