BRUSSELS, Jan 12 — The United States and its European allies coordinated their stance yesterday ahead of new Nato-Russia talks to defuse the Ukrainian border crisis, as Kyiv demanded an international summit.

At Nato, Russia will be represented by Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko, who described the meeting as “a moment of truth” in Russia-Nato relations.The allies have long insisted that Nato membership is a matter for sovereign states to decide for themselves and vowed to preserve their open-door policy.
