- The Pentagon said Thursday efforts to set up calls with top Russian military officials had been ignored.
- It comes as Russian jets operate close to NATO borders with Ukraine increasing chances of a miscalculation.
-'We've made multiple attempts here but they have not answered up,' said Pentagon spokesman John Kirby.
- It means the world's two largest nuclear powers are in the dark about each other's moves.
- Kirby also said Ukrainian armed forces had pushed Russian ground forces further back from Kyiv.
Multiple attempts by Washington's top military leaders to speak with their Russian counterparts have been rejected by Moscow, raising fears that a battlefield miscalculation could plunge Ukraine and the world further into crisis.

Well as it turns out, we are not at war with them, and neither we are not operating in the same battle space, so...big deal.
They know those stupid America mil types will get on the horn and start listing demands outside of the negotiations going on between Ukraine and Russia.
No need for that noise.
I wouldn’t want to talk to them either.
Oh brother. As if they want to talk to any one of these two floppy pawed as@holes

It’s a Lie Campaign.
It’s going to get a lot of people killed. The reach for the New Basement / Bunker Campaign. And the big prize, all the Trillions in Spending.

Can you blame them?
Milley should try red lipstick. Russians seem to like that.
Why would any serious person want to talk to these clowns?
When you lose as bad as these two screw ups did in Afghanistan, you have no standing with your enemies.
Daily Mail is nothing but a $***-stirrer.
Two of the biggest morons in the world calling Russia is not even a good idea. I hate to admit it, but Russia would be much better off with Biden himself calling.
Send Admiral Levin.
It means the world’s two largest nuclear powers are in the dark about each other’s moves.
Yet somehow the msm knows every detail!!!

(sarcasm-a very small amount).
It almost seems like the Daily Mail WANTS nuclear war.
Who would they want to talk to those clowns?
UK Daily Mail has zero credibility so who knows if this is true.
