NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg on Saturday urged Moscow to stop preparing for an attack on Ukraine or face harsh consequences amid fears that an invasion could be imminent, Reuters reports. “It's never too late for Russia to step back, to stop preparing for war and to start engaging in diplomatic talks with NATO and NATO allies to find a political solution," he said addressing the Munich Security Conference.

During the forum Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky told US Vice President Kamala Harris that his country wants peace and is relying on the support of the US. The US is “still open to a diplomatic resolution,” Kamala Harris said in her speech at the Munich Conference.
