Western allies are closely watching developments on Russia's border with eastern Ukraine, where Moscow has been amassing troops, German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas said on Friday after talks with U.S. Secretary of State Anthony Blinken.
"We are keeping a close eye on the situation with partners in NATO and the EU," Maas said on Twitter. "We agreed that Russia must de-escalate and restore military transparency."
