Putin's ambiguous threats continue to dominate the current crisis diplomacy, says CSS director and security expert Andreas Wenger. Military interventions in Ukraine on a local or larger scale cannot be ruled out.
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov are meeting for talks in Geneva today. These are more likely to be part of a series of other talks, says Andreas Wenger in the interview. How, when and by whom they will continue depends on how the crisis develops. This week, the West rejected Russia's maximum demands. The ball is back in Putin's hands.
