State Department Spokesman Ned Price begins his briefing stating: "The United States has information that Russia is planning to stage fabricated attacks by Ukrainian military or intelligence forces as a pretext for a further invasion of Ukraine."
AP reporter Matt Lee questions Price on evidence and the two engage in a heated exchange.
Lee: Where is the declassified information?
Price: I just delivered it.
Lee: No, you made a series of allegations...that's not evidence, Ned. That's you saying it. That's not evidence.
Price: What would you like, Matt?
Lee: I would like to see some proof.
