story of failure too. more than a month into this war, life of sorts, carry on. the russian troops never arrived, although plans were laid to stop them getting in. it looks like an earthquake hit. there is complete destruction, absolutely everywhere, but mainly the most interesting thing to see is not the fact this place was flattened, but the fact it wasn't flattened into submission. in the capitol, monuments had been protected as history is rewritten, because, met with a fierce resistance, moscow now says it no longer wants to focus on the capitol, but the ukrainians don't believe that. >> translator: we cannot trust them. at the moment, we don't see any withdrawal of russian troops from certain areas of kyiv.
