Washington and Moscow's top diplomats agree at high-stakes talks to keep working to ease tensions over Ukraine

Russia, which fuels a deadly insurgency in eastern Ukraine that has killed more than 13,000 people since 2014, has demanded guarantees that NATO never admit the former Soviet republic.

As fears grow that Russian could invade its pro-Western neighbour, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov sat down for 90 minutes of hastily-arranged talks in Geneva on Friday. Russia has massed tens of thousands of troops on the Ukrainian border, denying it plans to invade but demanding security guarantees, including a permanent ban on the country joining NATO.Blinken said after the talks that Washington will share written ideas with Russia next week, voicing hope for more diplomacy.
