>> they need the assistance right now. how about then on the no-fly zone? are you in agreement that putting in place a no-fly zone would immediately trigger a world war iii? >> fredricka, this is a really tough problem for nato and the united states. i have experience with no-fly zones, particularly in libya. i was an operations officer and according to the u.n. security council mandate to stop the general side of gadhafi, we were told to establish a no-fly zone. you may recall that secretary of...

What putin was going to do, but in bringing all of our allies along. weve sanctioned nord stream 2, a complete turnaround in the german approach. weve had putin be personally sanctioned to a level now that hes in the category with gadhafi and assad. youve got russians being kicked out of s.w.i.f.t., a sanction of the central bank in russia, by not only us, but others. this really has been a uniform world reaction against putins aggression. >> senator mark warner, it is always a pleasure to see y...

Gadhafi in libya. he worries about staying in power. it is all about survival. thats why he wanted to kill ukraine. ukraine was a successful democratic western leaning country on his border which could be a signal to his own people if this type of thing was positive, it was possible not to live under repression, it is possible for slavs and russian speakers to live in a democratic country. he had to snuff that out. it is about his personal survival. now, you know, now he has to double down on be...

Hand to put as much together with our allies to push back against putin. it clearly wasnt enough. vladimir putin decided to roll the dice and take this off awful move, essentially murdering people, innocent people in an innocent country that was no threat to him. yeah, its clear we need to do more. thats one of the strong arrows in our quiver. this is what vladimir putin does almost exclusively. he uses security services to do sabotage. we saw it in our own country, our own election. we have to ...

Mercenaries from the wagner group and bringing in forces from gadhafis groups in libya. some of the groups in the east have been destroyed, just ripped apart. second, youre seeing them set up defensive positions now, instead of advancing, theyre starting to set up defensive position, dig in and lay mine fields. youre trying to hold terrain. the russians saying were going to bring our massive indirect fires, artillery, missiles, aircraft. thats a losing strategy to me when you look at how many fr...

Being relied on less by putin. hes not consulting them as much which is maybe why theyre speaking out. but you do need to build a consensus among elites that this is going to destroy the country, to have some kind of intervention, which in the past has led leaders to be forced into exile or thrown out by a coup. >> if history is our guide, is that the most likely scenario for a strongman like putin to be removed, to be taken down? >> it is. i would caution that this, again, would take a very lon...

Spring when he saw gadhafi particularly killed in a drainpipe, killed and beaten. and i think he has been moving steadily since that time to align russian policy to take himself back to the days of empire and greater control. but it might be too late. and certainly his tactics are not working as he would have imagined simply based on the timetable of results. there is no way i can imagine he would have thought this was going to go past a week, let alone where at day 11 he hasnt secured any of th...

Engage in aggression against ukraine or anyone else. as you know, and as you heard us say repeatedly, we do not have a strategy of regime change in russia. >> any time you say or even as he did suggest that the policy was regime change, its going to cause a huge problem. this administration has done everything they can to stop escalating. theres not a whole lot more you can do to escalate than to call for a regime change. >> in the mind of putin, someone who hawatched and rewatched, you know, ol...

Regime change towards russia. but i think what we all agree on is that president putin cannot be empowered to wage war. >> in the mind of putin, someone who has watched and rewatched old videos of gadhafi being taken and killed, this kind of thing, it will play on his mind and it could complicate matters going down the road. >> all of this as a new nbc news poll taken before bidens remarks yesterday shows seven in ten americans express low confidence in his ability to deal with the invasion. wer...

Be in power to wage war. >> in the mind of putin, someone watched, rewatched, you know, old videos of gadhafi being taken and killed, this kind of thing, it will play on his mind and could complicate matters going down the road. >> hmm. a new nbc news poll taken before bidens remark 71% express low confidence in bidens ability to deal with the invasion. joining us now from the war front nbcs cal perry from lviv resident josh letterman from warsaw with latest on refugees there and my colleague ...
