And may god bless the heroes of ukraine and all those that defend freedom around the world. thank you, poland, thank you, thank you, thank you for what you are doing. god bless you all. [cheers and applause] >> that was president biden in poland after his meeting with president duda. we heard from the president of the united states. they only understand one word. why was putin given a pipeline from in order stream ii. this is "outnumbered." im kayleigh mcenany. also joining us political scientis...

We dont know what was done. it could even be a national security issue. >> ive been bringing this up for the longest period of time. i do believe the biden family is compromised. it made no sense to end the keystone xl pipeline and letting putin build the in order stream two pipeline . i dont think the president has any power with china. if you go to the laptop there are numerous references that hunter himself makes implicating his own father, the big guy, complaining about having to pay for rep...

This is. >> were going to stop there. thats quite a statement as well. why do you feel -- >> absolutely. >> -- that that was as u.s. action? what evidence do you have of that? >> well, first of all, theres direct radar evidence that u.s. helicopters, military helicopters that are normally based there were circling over this area. we also had the threats from the united states earlier in this year that one way or the other, we are going to end in order stream. theyre not allow to say these things...

Cant say whether its likely or not that russia will go into ukraine and that theyre committed to dialogue and diplomacy. but it seems like putin is pretty aggressive in the face of what have been very significant threats at least financially with sanctions from president biden. >> thats right. so i think the primary accomplishment of the biden administration so far on this issue is molding the u.s. and european allies into a united front against this chest-pounding effort to, you know, reimagine...

Juan, said this morning that he cant say whether its likely or not that russia will go into ukraine and that theyre committed to dialogue and diplomacy. but it seems like putin is pretty aggressive in the face of what have been very significant threats at least financially with sanctions from president biden. >> thats right. so i think the primary accomplishment of the biden administration so far on this issue is molding the u.s. and european allies into a united front against this chest-poundin...

>> reporter: millions of ukrainians were killed as hitlers army overran what was then the ukrainian part of the soviet union, nearly the entire jewish population "therethere w out. but german also has hard economic reasons for going soft on russia. its dependence on russian gas and the nord stream 2 pipeline. while berlin recently claimed the pipeline was purely an economic project, at least now the government says a russian invasion of ukraine would have an impact. >> translator: if there is re...

That the europeans are not united on tough measures dealing with the sanctions. what am i talking about? the germans sending mixed signals stopping the in order stream 2. france and germany unwilling to talk to european counterparts about what are the specific tough sanctions you are talking about. lay that out for us. they refuse to do it. the other back drop is we know that if the european nations begin to suffer economically as a result of the sanctions, they will likely back off on the sanct...

Economic assistance. what they need and are asking for is not only weaponry but a really strong, united show of unity among the nato allies about exactly what they would do and not let president putin use some of these economic issues within europe, particularly the energy issue, as a wedge to drive divisions between the u.s. and its nato allies that make it more easy for russia to justify its own incursion into ukraine if putin goes down that choice. for example on the in order stream 2 pipelin...

Existential crisis going on in the administration where you have some folks that say, oh, we can just go back to the old way and some folks like u.s. trade representative katheryn thai that say, no, we need new rules. we have to come up with new ways to get access and also protect u.s. jobs and labor. >> i want to talk about whats happening in the europe, iran and russia. a lot of people ask me, why does this matter for americans. you call this and say ukraine is potentially a european vietnam. ...

Wanted to hold in reserve the harsher sanks that will be rolled out if russian aggressions continues and russia seizes more ukrainian territory, which seems likely. the big move was the german decision to hold certification on the in order stream two pipeline, a connection between russia and europe. i think that was a signal that the sanctions may be hitting harder than the russians intended. >> jeff, there is an editorial board op ed piece in the "wall street journal" i want to read from. it sa...
