00:00There is potential war brewing in Eastern Europe.

00:04NATO countries are growing wary because Russia is keeping its cards too close to its chest.

00:11World leaders are banking on diplomatic talks,

00:14but there have been no breakthroughs so far through the diplomatic efforts.

00:21Multiple dialogues have started on a high note but ended with a stalemate.

00:25We are being told at this point that the Ukrainian president

00:28is going to be speaking to the American leader Joe Biden within hours.

00:33Both leaders are set to discuss the security situation on the Ukrainian borders.

00:39Russia refuses to have any plans of setting foot in Ukraine,

00:44but Western countries are certain about the invasion.

00:48They are even preparing their own retaliation.

00:51And they are ready with the same, they say.

00:53The German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has said that all NATO members will waste no time

01:00and immediately slap sanctions against Russia.

01:03The German government saying that tensions have reached a critical point.

01:10But NATO will keep pushing for diplomacy,

01:14which is why Scholz is scheduled to travel to Kiev on Monday.

01:17And after that, he will be heading far east to visit the Russian president, Vladimir Putin.

01:48to hold the training exercises.

01:54Earlier, six Russian naval landing ships had sailed to the Black Sea.

01:58And that's not all.

01:59Thirty ships have started training exercises near the Crimean Peninsula.

02:04And joint military drills with Belarus are underway.

02:08So Russia has basically amassed its troops, tanks, jets, ships and rocket launchers

02:21and that is also the only way Ukraine is looking for solutions.
