LONDON—The U.S. dollar fell for a second day on Wednesday as investors became less worried about the risk of Russia invading Ukraine and awaited the release of minutes from the U.S. Federal Reserve’s January meeting.

European equity markets were mixed, having rallied on Tuesday after Russia said it would withdraw some troops from Ukraine’s border.
