Asian markets traded lower in early deals on Tuesday as rising geopolitical tensions between Russia and Ukraine triggered a sell-off in global equities. Investors watched the latest developments in Ukraine as last-ditch diplomatic efforts continued to prevent what Western powers warn could be the imminent Russian invasion of Ukraine. The Japanese stock market was sharply lower, extending the losses in the previous three sessions, with the benchmark Nikkei index falling below the 26,400 level, following the lack of cues from Wall Street overnight, with traders remaining cautious and continuing to track the rising geopolitical tension between Russia and Ukraine.
