The "counter-party", which is Russian media is on the defensive for a good reason. They have a lot to be defensive about, ie http://www.businessinsider.com/nato-satellite-photo-evidence...

Russia is offensive in their actions and defensive in the words covering it up.

Would you like to provide examples of Ukraine's unfounded allegations against Russia?

Would you like to explain how this is needless escalation, when part of Ukraine is occupied by Russia?
