Played a major role in pristine a standoff with nato in 1999. do you agree, speaking as a general yourself, is that a big deal? >> oh yeah, i think so. this is not the west. these are not retired flag officers supporting presidential candidates. this guy was a main stream hard-line soviet style commander. and for him to come out and publicly criticize putin over this pending military operation is simply astonishing. i would be on surprised if he does not disappear shortly. but he must have done ...

Richard engel thank you. joining me now is the british ambassador to the united states, ambassador karen pierce. good to see you and to be here in person. i appreciate you making that effort. let me start with the western intelligence thought today could be the day or essentially this morning could have been the day that russia invaded. it didnt happen. do you believe that the west essentially flooding the zone with this intelligence, if you will, has upended some of putins plans? >> i dont th...

Right, ground operations there, and air. but you have six russian battle ships there in the black sea. what kind of a threat does that pose? in the only for ukraine, but the region as a whole? >> well, first of all, bear in mind, this is freedom of navigation. they can put their ships in there like we routinely transit into the black sea. the black sea is a bathtub youre vulnerable. they do that as a routine, thats a warmer water port. thats why crimea belongs to them now. this is a joint capabi...

The principal culprits here for me are not those poachers — sometimes people living in poverty that cant do anything but capture birds in the forest to feed their family — and tackling that part of the crime would be extraordinarily difficult. the easier part would be dealing with those platforms. they have the technological capacity to stop this, i believe, overnight if there was a will. what do you feel that conservationists could do to help with this cause? frankly, i cant write code, i d...

Neuroscience institute but also because this is anja i of the country hit so hard by this overdose epidemic. that is in part whats happening there. it goes without saying, i think, brianne ma and john, this would not be for everybody. this would be reserved for the worse off. people at real risk of dying from an overdose. in that case, if it works, it would potentially be saving lives. brianna, john. ♪ welcome to our viewers in the united states and all around the world. it is wednesday, feb...

Ready to respond decisively to a russian attack on ukraine, which is still very much a possibility. >> reporter: yes, still a possibility. the ukranians sort of downplaying that. what they say is that russia is, knowing its lack of capability at the moment, is focusing more on internally destabilizing ukraine, putting economic levers, using energy as a weapon, and of course using cyberattacks to destabilize the ukranian society. >> matthew, its great to see you. thank you so much for continued r...

To invade and seize ukraine in the coming weeks. 100 plus combat containers, amphibious opportunity to invade in the south is there. i dont think theres any question that capability is present on the ground. so what is going on? president biden and secretary blinken are understandably trying to give diplomacy a chance. although i might add, there is no u.s. ambassador to ukraine. we are now evacuating the majority of our embassy instead of re-enforcing our presence on the ground. so the diplomac...

Is just as beautiful on the 4th of january or february. stripped of its leaves but not drained of its color. no one experiences a true american winter the same way. but those with the confidence and capability of the all new 2022 grand wagoneer, will remember the adventure as long as they live. super emma just about sleeps in her cape. but when we realized she was battling sensitive skin, we switched to tide hygienic clean free. its gentle on her skin, and out cleans our old free detergent. tide...

In the coming days? >> wolf, i think officials do in large part because they feel like theyve learned lessons or at least taken evidence from past experiences particularly in 2014 and 2015 that gives them the rationale that, one, they had the intelligence capability and, two, its important to try and look like you know what the administration knows what president putin may be thinking or trying to do in order to throw him off. again, it doesnt mean its going to stop an invasion, but perhaps it w...

>> reporter: you are convinced that president putin is planning to invade ukraine, is that what you just said a few moments ago? >> yes. >> reporter: is diplomacy off the table then? >> no. until he does, diplomacy is always a possibility. >> reporter: what reason do you have to believe he is considering that option at all? >> we have a significant intelligence capability. >> now, no one can state definitively that an invasion will occur, only vladimir putin can do that, what we do know is what ...
