What next in this increasingly visible rivalry down old pre-1989 lines? PressTV is in Moscow to examine the Russian thinking over Ukraine. The Americans are trying to create more chaos in Ukraine and trying to damage their rival, Russia. But are the EU members having doubts? Will Ukraine be the start of a new iron curtain? Or will it divide NATO? PressTV also finds out how Russia feels about being ring-fenced by NATO "
