BRUSSELS (AP) — World leaders are trying to walk a diplomatic tightrope that could mean the difference between war in Ukraine and an uneasy peace there as Russia’s menacing actions on the border of its neighbor continue unabated.

Putin hosted Monday’s prime meeting of the day as French President Emmanuel Macron sought to de-escalate tensions.

Germany and Britain, meanwhile, added to efforts to reinforce NATO’s eastern border, sending troops to Lithuania and Poland.
