Both the leaders agreed there remained a crucial window for diplomacy and for Russia to step back from its threats towards Ukraine.
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and US President Joe Biden agreed in a call Monday that a "crucial window for diplomacy" remained over the crisis in Ukraine, Johnson's office said.
The discussion, the latest among world leaders focused on the crisis in Ukraine, comes after US intelligence officials warned an invasion by Moscow into its western neighbour could be days away.
"They agreed there remained a crucial window for diplomacy and for Russia to step back from its threats towards Ukraine," a Downing Street spokesman added of the call between the transatlantic allies.
"The leaders emphasised that any further incursion into Ukraine would result in a protracted crisis for Russia, with far reaching damage for both Russia and the world."
