The Spin

Pro-establishment narrative

As Russia continues its illegal invasion of Ukraine, the US defense secretary made this call to ensure that lines of communication stay open to avoid a miscalculation on either side that could lead to devastating consequences.

U.S. Department of Defense

Pro-Russia narrative

During the call with the American defense secretary, Belousov stressed that the continued supply of weaponry to Ukraine is leading to a dangerous escalation. Last week's attack on Crimea with US weapons — killing four and injuring more than 150 — was given as an example of this.
