Broadcast and cable networks have news teams in place in Ukraine as attention focuses on the possibility of an invasion, perhaps as soon as this week.
President Joe Biden will deliver remarks on the situation at the White House on Tuesday.
While Russian President Vladimir Putin said that they were continuing to negotiate, and there were claims of a pullback for some troops, there also were reports of skepticism among NATO allies.
