No one knows if Russia is going to invade Ukraine but there are plenty of reasons to worry.
Starting Monday, the US State Dept will start evacuating family members of embassy personnel in Ukraine, according to reports.
On the diplomatic side, the US said it would respond in writing to a set of security proposals that Russia presented in December, including a demand that Ukraine never be allowed to join NATO.
