The atrocities in syria. back then, you simply looked up to say, are you truly incapable of shame? is there no act of barbarism against civilians and no execution of a child that gets under your skin and ive been thinking about that, theres little proof that anything has changed. what is it going to take to stop putin now? >> well, what democracies, what europe and the united states and also japan and new zealand and australia and countries all around the world have mustered is far more formidab...

Heard there? >> first of all, i would like to tell him, this is not a conflict. this is an open war. i would like everybody to stop, especially politicians, calling it a conflict. because that makes it easier for them. in conflict, one country does not invade another country. and theyre not bombing civilian populations by thousands every day. childrens hospital, orphanages. they dont want to admit this is an open war, even though the rest of the world is watching this public execution of ukraini...

He basically believes he can do anything. and thats what he has been doing so far in the world. he invaded georgia, and no response. he invaded partly moldova, and there was no response. look what he did in syria, other countries. right now there is a public execution of ukrainians in front of the whole world by russian missiles, russian airplanes, by the russians. and we have been begging to protect our sky. were not asking to fight for us. were just asking for technical protection of the sky. ...

Big deal in my view will. >> and gillian, despite reports of resistance hence cook stalling, putin says everything is going according to schedule and the execution of such. your thoughts? >> everything is not going according to putins plan. amid a whole host of miscalculations, mistakes, and blunders he is presided over over the first week of this work of the biggest mistake hes made is underestimating the will of the ukrainian people to take to the streets, take up arms, and defend their homela...

The republicans joining democrats in standing up, a show of bipartisanship that we really havent seen much in recent years. what is the significance of that? >> i think it was a rare and moving sight, and it reflected the spirit of the country. i think regardless of party affiliation, there is universal disgust at the barbarity of vladimir putin. so no surprise that republicans and democrats both echoing that sentiment. i will say, though, in the weeks ahead, that is when the real test will come...

Theyre just extremely incompetent in their planning and the execution of military activity. >> it could be both. they could have taken on and are incompetent at the same time. the biggest question i have though, for you, is when looking at this, it angers so many people and you wonder what the hell is going on, how could they think any of this is okay. could this change how the u.s. and nato respond to this unfolding crisis, general? >> yeah, i think well continue to see tougher and tougher acti...

Their execution, frankly, in terms of not even taking out the ukrainian air command systems, the fact that over half of the ukraine can air force and more is still up and operating is, frankly, malpractice on the part of the russian military planners. i do think its important we continue to send them additional assistance into literally tens of thousands of antitank tools, tremendous increase in the number of stingers, and i applaud the administration while not getting into the actual systems, b...

Forward to working with mr. levine and miss despro. and were grateful for the willingness to serve the country in this capacity and look forward to the work, the good work that the commission will help us do in terms of our own programming and budgeting and execution. so with that, well go to questions. lena? >> thanks, john. two things. one, one of the things that the russians said today was that they boosted their staff at some of their nuclear sites. im wondering if there is anything that the...

Countries care more about the prices on their gas, which would probably cost now not $4 in the united states per gallon but $4.50 and this 50 cents make a huge difference for the russian economy, and this is what is funding putins army. or we have been promised that there would be strong sanctions on banks. unfortunately, we have seven out of 300 banks to be switched off from s.w.i.f.t. its not even 10%. its 5% of all banks in russia. frankly speaking, this can hardly be called a strong response...

Will treat this move negatively. so i am really very much disappointed and disillusioned of america. i know that american people actually care, and american people -- there is a democracy in america, and american people withstand up and demand administration to change its behavior and step in, not just observe all this execution and genocide. it has to be stopped. this is the evil which las to be stopped in ukraine. >> darya, thank you, thank you for your voice, thank you for being with us. lets...
