>> first of all, let me emphasize putin doesnt need to keep public support for the war because im not sure there is public support for the war. we have no idea what the majority of russians think about this war, which is bloody and as you said looks endless. on the other side, i dont think this war can last for years. for months, probably, yes, but not for years. russia doesnt have the resources. and the ukraine army is getting stronger every day. they receive reinforcements from the free world,...

Back effectively enough. are those weapons going to get here in time? >> its a real concern. i spoke with a number of ukrainian leaders, i spoke with military leaders while i was there. if there was one message, its this. the war crimes arent going to end until the war ends. the human tear yann crisis is not going to end until the war ends. and the war is only going to end when the ukrainians win this war against the russians. and theyre only going to win it if we can get this lethal aid to them...

How are the ukrainians preparing for this assault that they know is coming? >> reporter: everybody knows its coming. its a matter of time, john. time, however, and mother nature seems to be on the ukrainians side. we are expecting rain for a few days. when its raining, the russians are unlikely to move forward. the ukrainian army is taking full advantage of that. they are laying land mines by the roads. they are digging more trenches. they are sending more troops and armor to the front. >> still...
