After meeting President Putin in Moscow, Macron will travel to Kiev to meet Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky, and finally to Berlin in efforts to resolve the Ukraine crisis

With diplomatic efforts underway to resolve the crisis over Ukraine, we find out exactly how French President Emmanuel Macron is playing a part to keep the peace between both countries. From Moscow, he will travel to Kiev today to meet Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky - and then on to Berlin to catch up talks with his German and Polish counterparts.  There’s an estimated 130,000 Russian troops now surrounding Ukraine on its border, with Western countries concerned about a possible invasion by Russian forces.
