This strains East-West relations, as the US does not want Russia to claim parts of Ukraine. The author of the article does not state their own opinions, and only states the facts of the situation, making this a good non-biased article.

The author's ideas on what should be done to prevent this from happening again, and by comparing this to 9/11 makes it more opinionated.
