7.07am We take a look at the way the media is reporting on the crisis at the Ukraine-Russia border. Jacques Boulet and Jennifer Borrell from 3CR’s Think Again programme https://www.3cr.org.au/thinkagainask whether the hype and rhetoric about the tensions on the border is part of an information war led by western leaders, particularly by the US and NATO. This segment was recorded before Russia's dispatch of troops to the Ukraine regions of Donestsk and Luhansk and provides an alternative view of the state of affairs. Presented in two parts.
