we've also had a foreign minister of romania bugged. an artist cool, talking about the crime is being committed. he said, i could, it is absolutely clear doubt. russia is responsible for those crimes. and he also said that all perpetrators must be brought to it just just is there must for faith and international court. and as finally, we had very strong words for a, from a, for in the so german foreign minister are not in our bare book. and she said that this was a criminal war of aggression in our immediate neighborhood. she talked about a horrible reality in human images. and she also said that this, oh to never be normalized, ever. there was a very clear message from all for saying that no country should be subjected to the arbitrary will of others. you mentioned earlier, babel who opened that press conference and she ended her statement on a very strong note. she said, we are at the beginning of this crisis our so she's are clearly oh, seeing this as a longer period of instability, at least exactly germany and it's western allies ar

i'm travelling to northern romania, to the small border town of siret, where relief and heartbreak come in waves... hey! ..to meet the ukrainian families separated by this war... itjust dawned on me that the possibility of me losing her, it's not zero, it's possible. ..and to find out how they're coming to terms with their new lives as refugees. they're here, they're waiting. kettle whistles this l is the video of the street parallel to my parents'. just a few weeks ago, galya was an estate agent, but she's just escaped ukraine with her daughters. lesia, hersister, came from london to meet them, and they're all staying in the small flat that they're renting, close to the border in romania. but their mum and dad stayed behind in their hometown, bucha. what was it like, looking at all this news coming in of your hometown? it's horrible. like, my school is gone. like, if, like, most of the places that i've known, they've bombed. my side of where i grew up, it's mostly gone. wow. yeah. it's early—march, and bucha has been under siege for days. this quiet, leafy suburb is one of the last l

but for now, he's stuck here in romania, waiting for a piece of paperwork, so that the van can cross the border. i think it's very difficult. i'm reading the news and, from this, ifeel worse and worse. but anyway, we cannot give up. it must be terrifying, though, for you. i cannot... i cannot even explain what i feel now. putin's war has created an exodus from ukraine. since the beginning of the invasion, more than four million people have left. and by mid—march, thousands are crossing into romania every day, at this border, in the tiny town of siret. they're met with a wall of kindness from the romanian emergency services. . . ..and from hundreds of volunteers, like katya. katya is from dnipro, in south—east ukraine. her mum still lives there. they're from kyiv. yeah, it's all the stuff they brought with them. katya lives in the uk, but the day the war broke out, she came here, with her partner, petro. hands on deck now. i'm looking forward to some physical work! yeah. to warm up, yeah. they're organising the shipment of aid, especially medicine, into dnipro. on the other side,

for the do such decision to support these platform, i want to thank the co host, france and romania and want to think all other friends in part nice who have taken on responsibility in order to implement today's decisions. to prime minister. the problem is no, i'm lucky. i can assure you that we not only need perseverance shannon good minds, but indeed we do have this isn't persevering, us and stamina together. at the end of the day, it's not only about modal law or ukraine. it's about europe, it is about our joint and shad freedom, the freedom to live the way we want this young i self determination peace and security and to make sure that our children will also have the opportunity to live in this way. thank you very much. we were going to miss you could come most up to my little knowledge you of it with his us at the go felicity. i am will devin very happily for this 8 conference to support mode over in a very difficult context. as under lambert has already alluded to, what and fact of the matter is that we're dealing with us a law which is waging on independently all the narrative th

and by mid—march thousands are crossing into romania every day. at this border in the tiny town of suret. they are met with a wall of kindness from the romanian emergency services. and from hundreds of volunteers like katya. she is from southeast ukraine. her mum still lives there. it's all that they brought with them. she lives in the uk but the day the war broke out she came here with her partner. we are looking for physical work. they are organising the shipment of aid especially medicine into the town. on the other side her mum is also helping out. there is the sign, welcome to ukraine. hey. my mum. this morning has been especially difficult. she woke up to hear that her town was attacked for the first time. she said she has no time to hide. she is afraid she would lose contact with her mum. she has been trying to convince her to leave. when do you think you'll be ready to leave? she doesn't want to. she loves her city. nice to meet you. stay safe. have you accepted the fact your mother is not going to leave or are you going to keep trying? it

because mother of also she is a border with romania, romania being an e. u. member states. and in many others launch off. it's either different directions from there. so this is predominantly a trans, a country, but will a country of $2600000.00 people to have an additional 1. 100000 people is of course as a significant bird. and so for the most part, at the patterns have shown that they're not looking to stay here. they're passing through, but they do stay a week a few days at most and, and it's the mold oven authorities. we've also been sustained with, with the transportation addresses. those refugees who want to get into the opinion of i, romania and other avenues across in berlin today is hosting an international aide conference for moldova. we're just minutes away from a joint, a press conference or fi, or german, romanian french or foreign ministers on the mold oven. president of what is moldova hoping will come out of that. the realization here is that ukraine isn't going to be a place many people can go back to for a long time. so the people that o

what are you doing in romania to help? >> we noticed that a lot of refugees were fleeing to poland. we knew that resources were going to be stretched then and so when we found that we could be receiving refugees in romania, we were thrilled because we understood that the romanian people were eager to help and it presented a great opportunity to help people that i served within ukraine with contact missions. >> shannon: john, it seems like you have deep roots there, it sounds like. >> i was a missionary with contact mission in ukraine for 11 years. has been largely ineffective. 100,000 people. it's in the center of the country so it has not been a huge target. although they have had rockets going overhead constantly and they never will know when run the rockets has their name on it. >> shannon: what are you seeing in what is the experience of folks in that region? >> romania has been a huge help and people have embraced their neighbors which is been quite amazing and they've been able to house them in their homes, given transport. we've done a little bit of that. we had a 5-acre camp

john, tell me about the romania connection. what's happening there to help these folks as they flee. and we've got i want to put this up. the ukrainian refugee crisis. we know that more than 10 million people are displaced. more than four million of them, i believe outside the country. what are you guys doing in romania to help? well, we noticed that a lot of refugees are fleeing to poland. we knew that poland was going to be filling up fairly quickly ,that resources were going to be stretched thin. and so when we found that we could be receiving refugees in romania, we are thrilled because we understood that the romanian people are eager to help. and so they presented a great opportunity to be able to help people that i served with in ukraine with contact mission. yeah. and john, you have some deep roots there. it sounds like. that's right. i was a missionary with contact mission in ukraine for eleven years in a town called cremin cheuk cremin shuk has been largely ineffective in the town of one hundred thousand people the mos

now, safely romania. but part of what you're doing while there is trying to help other ukrainians, other refugees. how are you doing that? what are some of the things you're doing to help some of your fellow ukrainians? >> so basically every day on the border in -- the border with moldova. the main responsibility for me is help with translation. because a lot of ukrainians don't speak english. when they come not all of them understand what's going on. they just stressed running away from war. and they don't think about specific plan, where they are going to live, where they are going to stay or in which country -- job to talk with them and understand their needs. and to tell them good information, safe information, where they can go, either find for them accommodation, romania, if they plan to stay romania, if they go in another country to try to connect them with volunteers in other countries. during these three weeks on the border i already have a lot of contact around the world. so if i have people, fo

from the minister on the nato group in romania. i think we issued a redact of that call. the secretary also commended romania for welcoming hundreds of thousands of ukrainian refugees and was able to get an update from the minister on the nato group in romania. the secretaries meeting with the secretary of defense to discuss ways to deepen our cooperation under the u.s.-philippine alliance. both ministers will reiterate their commitment to supporting the security stability and prosperity of the indo pacific and ensuring the alliance remains capable and based on shared values and interests. they are also scheduled to discuss the importance of acting in unison to condemn russian aggression and acting in solidarity with ukraine. the secretary will express his deepest condolences for the tragic loss of life in the philippines in the wake of the tropical storm. i think it is more than 100 filipinos now have lost their lives as a result of that tropical storm. with that, we will take your bob, i think you are on the phone. reporter: on u

we visited moldova and neighboring romania, obviously a member of nato still concerned about russia's aggression and all was overshadowed by the horrible scenes out of bucha. >> we're going to seek russia's suspension from the u.n. human rights council. >> linda thomas greenfield, the u.s. ambassador to the u.n. addressing the horrifying images out of bucha. you think you're going to get the two thirds needed? >> i know we're going to get it. >> sergey lavrov, foreign secretary of russia, dmitry peskov have both call what had the u.s. and what the world has seen as lies. how do you expect to respond to your counterpart at the u.n. who will likely say the same? >> well, he's said that time and time again when we have exposed their actions. we will continue to expose them for the liars that they are. they told us that we were seeing actors, dead bodies acting. so, i expect that i will hear that in the security council. no one will believe them. and we will continue to isolate and expose them in the security council and around the world. >> reporter: do you expect that china will believe

under the age of 40 will be given iodine pills in romania, nation under the eu. what does that tell you about the trepidation and fears? >> it tells you how much fear people have and what they know putin is capable of, and so that's why we have to stay unified in our efforts to stop him from going any further. >> jim, just moment after that interview, i met a romanian woman who opened her purse and showed me her iodine pills. this is the life they're living right now, not knowing what will come next and what aggression putin will do, and what actions he will take, not only obviously on ukraine, but on neighboring countries. but i just have to say as somebody born in russia, i un moldova, i used to say russia because people didn't know, but now welcoming these immigrants and putting the name on the map here for all the right reasons. >> that's a good side, a silver lining, if you want to call it to the horrible story, the hospitality of the neighboring nations, moldova, far outpacing for instance the most recent exodus of migrants we saw from the syrian war by mul

madam president, last night i returned from a trip to moldova and romania. i saw with my own eyes the refugee crisis caused by russia's unconscionable war. i spoke to refugees who indicated to me their desires to return to their home. we have all seen the images on tv of the bombed-out buildings. but what we have not seen is that behind those destroyed buildings are destroyed lives and destroyed families. i met with women and children who have fled ukraine who stuffed their lives into backpacks and left the only home they have ever known. these were sobering conversations. one young woman i spoke to came with her 6-year-old brother who had autism and is struggling with cancer. their single mother helped them escape to save their lives. but russia's war has interrupted the care her brother desperately needs. another woman i spoke to fled with her 8-year-old from odessa. the father, who they left behind, told them there was shelling right next to their apartment that very night. and they very well could have died had they not left. a third woman i met told me

from romania, again, all airports are here. namely, people go to... there are now in the process of initiation with uk and sweden. for skyup, do you know how much infrastructure has been damaged in these russian attacks? whether it is aircraft themselves or airports. for sure, we know, but for confidential reasons we don't want to provide any details. we canjust underline the airports are almost destroyed or significantly damaged. immediately after the war, it would be finished, it will be done a special audit for our airfields, for our equipment, for airport infrastructure. honestly speaking, one of the main issues for us now is who will pay for repairing? aviation and everything costs a fortune. really, we need a plan for aviation in ukraine in order to start operations at the day after the war. skyup is relatively new to providing a cargo service. i believe you only started operating at this time last year. when at the war is over, do you expect the cargo side of your business to increase significantly given the restocking and rebuilding efforts th

if mr. brewton decides to take a strike against arms convoys in, let's say, poland or romania. he may make a deliberate decision to enlarge this war. i'm not expecting that, but nato, i think, is observing. it's red lines to avoid escalation. it doesn't necessarily mean that putin will reciprocate in kind. now, another line is the fact that i will be seeing 7 planes carrying us weapons for ukraine, heading towards europe in the next 24 hours. is it a little too late to be making a difference when it comes to the battle for don bass? no, i don't think it is. it is too late. in the sense that the, the remarkable strength of the ukrainian military has surprised everybody. and the supply of weapons to the military has played a role, no question that the javelins, the anti tank, the anti missile systems, the anti aircraft systems. these are making a big difference. will the ukrainian military be able to stop the russian military and from toppling mary a pole and perhaps building a land corridor that stretches from dun boss to crimea? i think probably not. but we don't know whether p

>> guest: we went to poland, lithuania, slovakia and then some of my colleagues went to romania. there were two profound impressions. number one, the memory of world war ii is very, very vivid in those countries, in ways we can't understand. they weree an invaded, occupied. people were slaughtered. and even though we're a couple of generations removed, what russia has done with the invasion of ukraine and with his onslaught of just indiscriminate violence in civilian areas where women and children are, in fact, targeted. that is very vivid and very real. in each of those countries the leaders, the people we spoke to, are extremely concerned that if russia succeeds in ukraine, the country is next. that was impression number one. number two, a positive impression was the solidarity. the folks there, in a smaller country as latvia, are sending significant military aid to ukraine as is the case of course with poland and romania and slovakia. in poland where you have 2.5 million ukrainian refugees, the polish people are taking them into their homes. all those refugees are in polish ho

i traveled to algoma and romania two weeks ago and had the opportunity -- maldova and romania to ask ago and had the opportunity to hear their sense of terror, worry about their family members. those voices will continue to be raised. i had the opportunity to see what the united nations is doing on the ground to support those people who have been impacted by this war. those who have crossed the border into neighboring countries. more than 6 million who are still living inside of ukraine who have been enforced for their homes. more than 10 billion people have been forced totally. 4.3 billion have crossed the border in neighboring countries. we are working with those borders, united nations systems to provide support. >> i think you mentioned this. also, the private sector doing everything they can to do to --. by the same time, the question is on the commitment of some countries in the democracy what was supposed to have a reverse course. if i can now think of reference in ukraine and discuss u.s. relations with traditional partners at the human, i believe that the previous administra

the russian ambassador to romania believes the driver may have been caught up in the overwhelming anti rush a sentiment sweeping europe over the country's operation in russ liverts and filing say, the incident is currently being investigated only by romanian police. the russian embassy is not being given specific information from the authorities without a special request. when you, yesterday just before the incident, the foreign ministry of romania announced that 10 russian representatives have been declared persona non grata. hopefully, it corresponds to the policy of decreasing relations with russia. probably there are not serious intentions to conserve peace and mutually advantageous co operation for the right romania is one of the countries who created this policy of bringing oil to the fire to continue warfare in ukraine. can. however, russia has always been there for dialogue lately since the war started, there has been an increase in cases when russian citizens or people of russian descent have been deprived of their human rights. really choice. for example, they are denied from

and that's what we heard from the prime minister of romania who was secretary of defense previously, that he's all in. this is going to be something he's going to put everything he has to extend this land bridge even past crimea to odesa. then he could go into moldova where he has 8,000 troops there and they're up on the border of romania. that's the worst-case scenario. >> as he said the worst-case scenario. is it likely? i mean do you see putin stopping at ukraine? >> if putin is allowed to take ukraine, then no. his next target will be eastern europe and romania, the pols, lithuanians, estonians will be very vulnerable. if the ukrainians win and i think they will, don, then the russians will be pushed back from nato. it'll also be better for nato and therefore better for the united states. we won't be vulnerable to attacks from russians right on the border. i think this undermines the importance of ukrainians winning this fight. >> this bizarre i don't know what you call it, ratcheting up or whatever it is, but russia's military carrying out a test launch of an intercontinental ba

advisors at an airbase in romania. this is a very troubling situation. putin's goal is to take over the entire black sea, which includes the critically important port of odesa. no one is interested in seeing that happen from turkey to the neighbors, but romania will bear the worst cost of that. if odesa falls it is likely moldova will come under russian influence and nato will have a direct boarder with russia there in romania as they take that entire southwest corner of ukraine and potentially moldova. so i think it's very important that the weapons be placed to defend odessa and keep puten from taking odessa. it's a key linchpin in this victory over putin. >> congressman rich hill from arkansas tonight. thank you so much for being with us. >> it's happy to be with you. happy eater. >> you too. >>> health officials are tracking new covid subvariants and they may be the most contagious yet. so how worried should we be? i will ask viral specialist dr. hor djorge rorodriguez next. digital tools so impressive, you just can't stop. what would you like the po

you just arrived in poland but you were in romania. i want to bring the map to show people how many people have left ukraine. poland has 2.4 million people, just much larger number of refugees flooding into poland versus some of the other surrounding countries. janelle, what's sort of the differences between what you saw in romania and what you are seeing now in poland? >> so the flow of people crossing the worder from ukraine is certainly slowing and that's true for all the countries but still there are more than 100,000 people coming per day seeking safety from ukraine. here in poland red cross medical teams are at train stations and are still triage serious medical cases and providing first aids and things like that. right now what we are seeing people are arriving who have less resources who didn't want to leave in the first place, of course, nobody does, but these are people who are hesitant to leave and more needs of people coming across. jacqui: what are some of the needs that we might not think of? i know there's an issue of po

romania has taken in more than 600,000 refugees since russia invaded ukraine. romania expelled ten russian diplomats from the embassy yesterday, according to the european union. the european union said it will ban russian coal. this come after new evidence of war crimes by russian troops. europe is not yet taking the bigger step of banning the purchase of natural gas from russia. much of europe, including the industrial giant of germany, depends on russian natural gas for heat and power. scott mcgrew said that has sparked a knew call for nuclear. both in europe and here in the united states. >> nuclear could help free europe from its dependence on russia and our dependence on the middle east. as we find our climate in crisis, it could help the environment. now, nuclear power doesn't release any carbon into the atmosphere but europe has been moving away from nuclear. the former german chancellor leading the charge. merkel had a ph.d. in physics. in the day following the fukushima disaster in japan, she ordered the disabling of eight russian reactors. there was a
