German Chancellor Olaf Scholz is set to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in Kyiv on Monday — before heading to Moscow to talk with Russian leader Vladimir Putin — as part of a last-ditch bid at diplomacy. Scholz last week renewed his threat to Putin that there will be “consequences” for any military assault on Ukraine, Germany’s southwestern neighbor.“It is our job to ensure that we prevent a war in Europe, in that we send a clear message to Russia that any military aggression would have consequences that would be very high for Russia and its prospects, and that we are united with our allies,” Scholz said.
