The US has said it will help Ukraine with radar and potential counter-fire.

How does this affect US-Russian relations, and what is next in that region?

Its still a possibility at this, pending the white house.

And it would be interesting to see how this effects US-Russo relations. I could see Putin and the Kremlin seeing this as no different than what we're doing now, to him calling out the US for stepping in a meddling in things we "don't understand". It's a little proxy warish and Im sure all you who loved through the cold war are getting some nostalgia right now, but I doubt it would escalate to more than just sabre rattling by the US and Russia.
