They can do on the weapons front. the sanctions, i think, were going to see bite over time. theyre already hitting russias economy very hard. but i think there is going to be -- i know we dont like the word "red line" but its very hard to see nato getting directly involved unless nato is itself attacked. >> there is going to be a lot of debate about a hypothetical red line, whether or not someone utters it or not. elise, greg, and miles are sticking around. thank you all in advance. when we retu...

To becoming too settled, to becoming too comfortable, the idea of building a life, thats not quite on peoples minds yet. theyre still hoping that theyll be able to return to their lives. >> it is an enormously difficult situation. da sha burns live in poland, thank you for that report. elise, greg, and miles are back with us. i want to call everyones attention as we talk to the humanitarian crisis which is an urgent part of this invasion. reports from mariupol, from the mayor of the city, who ...

They can get some aid organizations in there, the red cross, doctors without borders, get some civilians out, that would be worth negotiating for, but again, his concern from the beginning has been, if hes negotiating with the russians and theyre not doing it in good faith, is he just giving them time to regroup militarily. its a very difficult line for him to walk, alex. >> cal perry live in lviv. thank you, cal, and please stay safe. joining our coverage now this hour is elise, contributing ed...
