World leaders plead for diplomacy in Russia-Ukraine crisis

Overseas, battle lines appear to be tightening over Russia's potential invasion into neighboring Ukraine. NATO and other European leaders are pleading for diplomacy ahead of face-to-face talks between the U.S. and Russia in Geneva next week. Christina Ruffini has the latest from the White House.

“CBS Saturday Morning” co-hosts Jeff Glor, Michelle Miller and Dana Jacobson deliver two hours of original reporting and breaking news, as well as profiles of leading figures in culture and the arts.

"It's very hard to make Russians leave once they are in your home" - US while illegally staying in Syria's soil for years and doing a whole lot of nothing in Afghanistan for 20 years!

Brandon should keep his nose out of it. The only reason he is concerned about Ukraine is that his crime family has businesses over there.

Say NATO and states have about 300, 000 troops at that Russian border why don't they tell that part of it!

[buttercup]

Wouldn't it be nice if we had this kind of concern about the wars being fought on the streets of America ???

[imthebadguy]

Remember when Putin challenged Biden to a public debate? That was a test.

[mrrealestatebos]

If the US sent troops into Mexico, or Cuba would Russia interfere? #NO Why is USA/NATO in their business? Daniel 2:44

Once america is in your house it’s hard to get them to leave

[selcovoilucian]

Just give Russia a Budapest Memorandum type of deal

[RandoBurner]

They are asking nicely are they?
Thats what the current western strategy is anyway, ask nicely of people with violent intent. If someone is a criminal, asking nicely, compassion is the way to go. If one on the other hand, pays taxes, helps people, is generally better off than those around him, the state MUST do something, in order that the criminals around him who are poor, to live "better lives".

I believe the US and NATO can have a look at China for a bit. They are neighnourgs and they seem calm with having the Russian government close. And this is a peecekeeping mission going EAST.

[Alanpartridge]

If they won't refuse other countries membership of NATO as every country has "the right to choose it's own path and what defense to have" -That will apply when China and Russia have pacts with countries and Islands near the USA having bases and missiles there too then !

[senaaaa]

no deal. No missiles or no Titanium, and rare metals to the US, and/or no Gas for the EU.

[johntruman]

You cannot talk to unelected psychopaths

[LaVictoireEstLaVie]

If the US would have kept its word about not expanding its military block past a united Germany we would not have this problem. If the US decided not to topple the government of Ukraine in 2014 we would also not have this problem. Europe does not have a "Putin problem" but a "US problem".

[vivianavian]

The US isn't too good at diplomacy, To us, it means do as we say or we will wage war which we will then lose badly.

[tedrohe]

Stand against the brutal dictatorship of Putin Russia.

[coldfire]

Yup every country have the right to choose but only after a regime change.

[nats]

Sad and sorry, but forced to say, one powerful nation would have self-destructed ages and ages ago had it not been under the umbrella of double standards and hypocrisy!

I am wondering how American medias will deal with the opinion of their own public....it can be terrible to see their own citizens see their own government as we can see in the comments.
