That is all happening as this goes on. it is expected to get worse. here in romania, they are preparing for as many reflugees as they can take. >> these countries have been so generous, but as you said, supplies are starting to dwindle, and these refugees are coming with very few things that they can grab as they flee their homes. miguel marquez, thank you for your incredible reporting. up ahead, how a grassroots group of americans from former soviet republics are stepping up to help frontline...

Moscow currently approves of moldovas government because of its pro western leader. post soviet russia has also invaded and instigated conflict with armenia, azerbaijan, and georgia. and then, there are the five former soviet republics that we now call central asia, kazakhstan, kyrgyzstan, to get stan, turkmenistan, and uzbekistan. all of them maintained close ties to moscow. which leaves us with one more country, one more matter unresolved. thats the country 1000 feet to my left, ukraine. with ...

Slaughtered, might give away too much to make a deal. some of the items in these talks include zelenskyy and ukraine ruling out entirely joining nato and just staying neutral, a complete demilitarization of ukraine with securities from other countries, seating donbas republics. is that too much? are any of those items acceptable to the u.s.? >> this is for the ukrainians themselves to decide what is too much for them. it is not our decision on that, and we support their efforts. so i cant previe...

About constructing narrative? we know state tv is important, but its not the only thing being used by the russians. so, where else are you seeing them working hard to create their own stories around this? well, first of all, - i see their nazi narratives are crumbling and falling apart. so theyre starting to change them, | because it was obviously ridiculous| from the onset to represent a country with a jewish - president as a nazi country. theyre already slipping up and starting to admit- that ...

Missile defense batteries were activated, targeting what we believe to be a russian jet. we dont have any sort of clarity on that. thats what we believe happened. all of this contributing to a picture of intensified fighting, particularly here in the capital. you mentioned that air strike or missile strike, we cant be sure which it was, or shelling even, frankly, in the suburb of obilon which hit an apartment building. you can see the image of the residential building, civilians living there. re...

In the way, so i am really disappointed with the biden administration. in terms of diplomacy, the russians and ukrainians have started talking about options, and yesterday zelenskyy said that hes open to some options and the russians have said that they want crimea to be recognized as theirs and they want the peoples republics to be recognized as theirs, and they want ukraine to give up on its nato aspirations, so thats the first sort of real opening between ukraine and russia and theres going t...

Republics not now, not ever. arthel: i love, i love it. what details can you tell us about these russian false flag operations to lure belarus into the war and have you or president zelenskyy been able to speak with the belarusian president, alexander puke she can coe? >> first of all, he is not making any decisions by himself, so it doesnt have any, it wouldnt have any result, doesnt have any meaning to be talking to him. hes, right, another puppet of putins regime, and this is how putin can on...

Are you thinking about some other way to make the airspace safer to continue to fighting the russians? because as you know, a lot of the fire power falling on ukrainians is coming from artillery. so perhaps fighting the russians from the sky will stop that. >> thats hugely the way we see it, all the tacticals they can be covered with at least control of our skies. were taking a different look. one is the one you just described. the jets, our pilots are familiar with, some which soviet union prod...

Ukrainian airspace. they can fire their cruise missiles from inside russian territory. this is what theyre up against, western supplied missile systems, plus some old soviet—era stock. the ukrainians have shot down a number of russian helicopters and planes. russia has threatened to start targeting the supply of western weaponry. meanwhile, the pentagon has dismissed fears that some of these weapons could end up with criminals and terrorists. "we believe that risk is worth taking," says a us d...

Who think this is shallow and its not going to resolve anything, they just dont understand that this is very valuable. if there is just a 1% chance to stop this war, i think that we need to take this chance. >> you know the russian demands. they want you to recognize crimea is part of russia, that the two republics in the donbas are independent republics. they want a guarantee perhaps in the constitution that ukraine will never be a member of nato. are you willing to make those compromises? >> t...
