CNN: U.S.-Russia military tit for tat raises fears of greater conflict
Washington (CNN)The war of words between America and Russia is escalating. So, too, is the movement of implements of war -- from U.S. fighter jets to Russian nuclear weapons.
So is an actual war imminent?
No one in Russia, NATO or the United States has gone that far yet. Still, the rhetoric and actions from both sides have definitely ratcheted up in recent days, raising concerns of a new arms race -- if not worse -- amid tensions both sides blame on each other.
The major players all claim their movements are defensive and necessary responses to their foe's provocation. None has talked of an invasion.
