Them not only with the supplies president biden has promised in his recent announcement several days or so ago i would advocate for not getting mig 29s to the ukrainian airport as three hundreds higher air defense systems will be on the stinger. again other capabilities i think will keep the momentum shifted towards ukrainians favor. now is not the time to have us sit on our heels in supporting some momentum in. weeks if not months in this campaign, mariupol comes to mind could be the next coupl...

>> president putin has already ordered more than -- a week ago now -- for russian nuclear forces to be on high alert. how much has this threat changed the landscape of this crisis, and how much would americans, how much should americans, worry about this becoming a nuclear confrontation? >> we want to do everything in our power to avoid this. im the chair of the subcommittee on intelligence, our counterterrorism operation. russia has one of the worlds largest nuclear arsenals, and putin is being...

President zelenskyy has been pleased with the response that hes got from the u.k. there are different capabilities across the 13 nato countries, all of them assessing what more they can do at this time, and i think its hugely important to remember that vladimir putin has not met his military objectives. he thought effectively that this war would be over by now, and what hes met with dogged resistance, and ukrainians equipped to deal with the threat that they are facing. we have now got to gird o...

A big deal, were curious as to why they even used it. likely for marketing for their own military capabilities or possibly they are running out of position guided missiles. we simply —— all they simply wanted to use it. simply -- all they simply wanted to use it.- simply -- all they simply wanted to use it. that hype seems to — wanted to use it. that hype seems to have _ wanted to use it. that hype seems to have had - wanted to use it. that hype seems to have had a - wanted to use it. that...

Donbas and ukrainians did fight. thats how we ended up with a cease-fire line and the minsk agreements. ever since then, ukraine has been in a battle with russia. theres been a front line, young people sent and a few people killed every week. this is a national sense of identity far stronger than anything that existed before. >> lets talk about what nato can do and will do or what they will and wont say. the decision to be ambiguous about if you do chemical weapons, that changes the calculus. if...

A month into the war in ukraine, we have seen horrific images on the toll taken daily on the people of ukraine. still not a single city has been captured. not odesa due to constant shelling. not mariupol, who has been reduced to ashes. and also not kyiv where 80% of the capitol city is still under ukranian control. as russia sees little progress, there is new concern over what putin might try next. joining me now, eva dalder. what have you learned about ukranian and russian capabilities in this ...

Really highlights, frankly, how various elements of the russian military are. reminds us that 20 to 25% of the troops are conscripts who serve one year and the conskripgsz was supposed to end in april and he is extending the tours. you can imagine what that does to morale on those troops and so forth. and youve seen the totally inadequate command control and the campaign design was wildly unrealistic. and reflected a total lack of appreciation for the ukrainian strength, determination, capabilit...

Natos readiness. highly advanced aircraft capable of assisting with electronic warfare mission. we will hear more about natos readiness later today. on capitol hill within the last 30 minutes a senate hearing with european command got underway. they talked about what else can be done to boost the u.s. and european security given so much focus on what russia may do next and also a focus on what else is being done to make sure tensions between the u.s. and russia dont escalate any further. trace. ...

Armour or tanks, and that seems like on the low tech end spectrum, and thats the kind of capability we would feel comfortable in the west providing the ukrainians, and we have been providing offensive weapons in terms of javelins and i think we will move to more sophisticated surface to air missiles, and theres a reluctance to talk about the specific capabilities and where these capabilities are coming from. some countries dont want to be publicly identified of providing from their defense stock...
