i'm is scheduled to visit poland. one of the main proponents of western support for kids as the american leader is set to deliver his own views of the conflict of the contributor rachel madison. as more just presidential biden is set to give a tough guy, speech directed at russian president vladimir putin. and apparently figures that he needs to be within shouting distance from the russian border in order to do that. so poland is just as close to russia as ukraine is. and is certainly a lot safer. right now, given that it's one of the top military powers in europe and well by the needs a safe space which ukraine isn't. i mean, you loaded ukraine up with weapons. einstein, what did you think was going to happen? so this is global firepower, index ranks. poland 3rd in europe, behind france and italy. now you might wonder, how could this possibly be given that poland g d p is much less than these other western nations? well, american funding has been pouring into poland over the past few years. the u. s. congress approve

how do you think it's gone down with people in poland? well, the people that listen to them are president biden here in warsaw in the royal gardens and beyond the gardens. several thousands actually gathered. you didn't need a ticket, you could just come by and listen. they are, of course ro, very satisfied about the reassurances, their god that the united states and nato will stay with poland and ukraine in this fight against russia. and we also heard a direct address to the people of russia. the biden said that putting started this war and nobody has the intention or the eagerness to attack russia, there was a clear answer to, to the speech we heard from vladimir putin to day in moscow. so the poets are happy of cause, and they are also happy that a bite was here for the 2nd time, only in 11 months. so they believe his the promise that the bond between the united states and poland is iron clad. as right. we actually got that promise of unity and continued support. we might have expected, assuming what stood out to you in biden's beach.

it's ok, well, poland if poland and my family name is carrie, was 22 brothers and assisted me part of us. we haven't done parents both sites, but they're really separate. and what they said is that each of life was located in the village where you're born in poland. and what was you can tell me the name of the village and what kind of community it was like. well have to it was or had the call or send those to vic and so everybody leaves on their own land. so it wasn't, wasn't their village, which is sir house next to each other that this is everybody live on his own land. and i can't really say much because i don't remember much from poland. i remember more from the time they took us to say video, that path i had a member oh i see or do they took us says february 10th, saturday pick up my grandparents with didn't we just so hadn't it with the window because the day was very cold and ted, they block our door, so my mad that was crying and begging them to say she want to see her parents. they just took them, both of them, put their slate in there over the my way about 2 hours late and t

poland is leading nato in this. poland, the baltics, the other states on the frontier with russia are the ones that have shown the great commitment. >> here's president biden speaking. >> i think i told you the story when i was a young senator. i wrote a report. i had a very senior staff member on the foreign relations committee who was -- that was a committee, the next youngest person on that committee was 32 years older than me. i came from european and wrote a report saying that poland would be free within a matter of a year. my chief of staff then said please don't write that because you will look foolish. i got a phone call from john paul asking whether i would meet with him. as a practicing catholic i joked that he was more conservative than my views were. we finished the conversation all about poland. never once mentioned anything about catholicism. we are walking from one end if you have been to the papal library, as wide and long as this room. with a simple desk at one end. he said would you like a photogra

and president biden remains in poland. we are about to see him giving a speech in poland. that is what we are waiting for right now. what is the president going to say? he has just come back from kyiv. what is he going to say today about the u.s. support for europe, the continuing support for europe? kailey: that is what we are waiting for, the polish president just finished making his remarks in warsaw. we are watching and looking at a live shot of the stage were president biden is expected to speak at any moment. but as you say, this follows just yesterday his secretive surprise visit to kyiv. he will try to express support for the u.s. for ukraine. this week will mark one year since russia invaded the country. let's get more insight on this as we await the president. joining us is the program manager for the german marshall fund in warsaw. to what extent is the president's remarks today colored by the visit he may just yesterday, visiting kyiv, visiting a war zone? marta: i think it is colored to some extent because most especially it gives him great credibility. becaus

so biden's visit comes ahead of our schedule trip to poland. one of the main proponents of western support for key of a statement from the white house says the american leader will deliver an assessment of the conflict. ukraine. let's go get more now with aussie contributor is rachel most less presidential biden is set to give a tough guy speech directed at russian president vladimir putin and apparently figures that he needs to be within shouting distance from the russian border in order to do that. so this is global fire, our index ranks, poland, 3rd in europe, behind france and italy. now you might wonder, how could this possibly be given that poland g d p is much less than these other western nations. well, american funding has been pouring in to poland over the past few years. the u. s. congress approved $288000000.00 worth of foreign military financing last year, under the guise of countering russia. warsaw has also scored $34000000.00 in security assistance to improve intelligence capabilities and military mobility over the past 5 years.

the focus has really been on poland though, and that's because before the invasion, poland had seemed reluctant to take in refugees. this, this change of heart, if you will. how do you explain? i don't think it's very hard to explain was we what we have seen with the ukrainians festival is that they all arrived regularly. none of them require dangerous crossings of borders with smugglers, for one very simple and very important reason they ukrainians had visa, free travel to the european union to almost all countries of europe except the united kingdom already before the war. so they could just the rife. secondly pulls checks, slovaks, germans are aware of why they are fleeing, so there is no alternative place to which they can turn people have gone to moldova, but otherwise, it's just the european union. and of course, a lot of countries in eastern europe or central europe in particular, identify with this because they see this russian aggression in light of their all history. and they remember that they were once this place. let me ask you to about the a more than 2000000 ukrainians

ambassador to poland is speaking and it's expected he will speak, and after that the president of poland will speak, and after that, president biden will speak. this is what is happening right now in warsaw. josh, i want to go over to ukraine. erin, what do ukrainians want to be hearing from the president today? >> reporter: well, ukrainians would love to hear more about weapon systems being sent from the united states to ukraine to help in the war effort, namely the fighter jets they have been asking for for sometime now, and the ukrainian leadership believes it's absolutely necessary for them to win this war. that being said, ukrainians in general have been extremely pleased with the way this visit has played out so far, namely president biden's visit yesterday to the capital, kyiv. earlier today i sat down with an advisers to president zelenskyy who talked about the evolution in the relationship between ukraine and the united states over the past year. take a listen. a year ago today the u.s. embassy was closed. they completely packed up the embassy and moved to poland. yesterday the

great, and the last president as he returns to poland to eat in his eyes. let's see if we can listen n low poem. we're great now is president, do know prime minister, mr. prime minister, mr mer ball, the former ministers and presidents as well as mares and polish political leaders from all across the country. thank you for welcoming back to poland. you know, is nearly one year ago. the only one year ago i spoke of the rural council, her warsaw, just weeks after latimer brewton had on least his murderers. a saw on ukraine, the largest land war in europe since world war 2 had begun. and the principles that had been the cornerstone of peace prosperity debility on his planet for more than 75 years. we're at risk of being shattered. one year ago, the world was bracing for the fall of game. well, i guess come from a visit to keith and i can report, keep stand strong. he stays proud. he stays home. and most important stands free. when russia invaded, wasn't just ukraine being tested? the whole world faced the test for the ages. europe was being tested, america was

how is biden's visit perceived though by people in poland? well, the pose actually very proud that biden is showing up here for the 2nd time in only 11 months. a war time was it expresses that that poland is really now the center of gravity in nato, and maybe also in europe in an american view of this is what the poets think about this. because dear, strategically and also geographically potent, of course, is very important in this war against her or the defense of ukraine, because all the transports go to poland, to ukraine, all the weapons and all them, i mean this and goes to poland. so this is it's, it's very important and the polls are actually a very american friendly people. they w, corresponded bentley good in warsaw. thank you. now, russian president vladimir putin will shortly give a state of the nation addressed to both houses of the russian parliament in moscow . in the same speech one year ago, he recognized the breakaway ukrainian regions of the nets and lou hands as independent, a prelude to the russian invasion of ukraine. for

you're born in poland. info. what was you can tell me the name of the village and what kind of community was like? well, he said it was us had the car or sad austell vick and tell everybody leave for on their own land. so it wasn't, wasn't a village, which is a house next to a child that this is everybody live on his own land. and i can't really say match because i don't remember much from poland. i remember more from the time they took us to say video, that part they remembered oh i see where they took us says february 10th, saturday. pick up my grandparents with didn't we just so had it with the window because the day was very cold. and ted, they block our door so my mother was crying and begging them too. so she wanted to see her parents. they just took them, both of them, put them there, slaten over them away about 2 hours late and they came put us one of those. so just told my parent that you take whatever you can what are you going to when he needed? and my father will they, when they take us to say, oh oh,

of course, in the west, ukraine borders poland . do west, ukraine borders poland. do you in poland fear that vladimir putin could come after you if he's successfully in ukraine? this is absolutely what he is going to do. he will not stop himself if he is successful in any way against ukraine. he will be coming for more and he will be coming for more and he will be attacking other countries , be attacking other countries, baltic states, poland , moldova, baltic states, poland, moldova, countries in central asia as well. he's very open about it. and his his cronies are in his political circle , are very clear political circle, are very clear what they want to do. they are calling , as they as they name calling, as they as they name it, will dinas ification of several states. they are calling everyone . they are accusing everyone. they are accusing everyone. they are accusing everyone of being . well, in everyone of being. well, in fact, this is the only country, a like country today, russia. the policies that they are inflicting, the war, which is based on purely gen

and we have just to remember what fall poland is playing, supporting ukraine. poland is one of the strongest supporters of ukraine. they have delivered $2000000000.00 you as dollars worth of weapons. they have taken in more than 1500000 refugees, and people at the same time have to cope with inflation with storing energy prices . so their expectation is for joe biden to give them hope to bolster them up to tell them that it's worth being there. together and that they can rely on the you as, as a partner. and at the same time we can expect from his speech also that he is going to build on his case that this is at conflict between democracy and outdoor crusty . and that he is also, i'm going to speak about what's at stake here, not only the success and the survival of ukraine, but also fundamental values as such as stero told yeah, the integrity, freedom, sovereignty there use dad said needs to be upheld. you know, so many people gathered there in the cold. they must be expecting something good to me. what do you think we can expect to hear from bite and speech? you know, i think we can expect

this is mario poll women's association that's actually based in poland. they work in partnership with women for women international and human doc foundation. she joins us live from warsaw. of course, poland is the destination for many ukrainians who had to flee the warm, particularly in the early days using images of families who separated men who were staying behind and ukraine while women and children having to fleet. can you tell us about the families, the people that you have worked with, you've come into contact with during the course of your work? hello. nice to meet, you know, thank you. find even station. i'm a holler just and that, that a piece. and i have been work and the people who suffer from war with families was suffering from war more than 7 years since 2014. and they do it now. and i see the tendency to now that of course, we are, you know, tired and exhausted and lost their especially because like it was in my mind in 2014. and now the same refugees from ukraine, from the hot point, whole of the home. they come to worst, so when i, i'm n

poland, 3rd in europe, behind france and italy. now you might wonder, how could this possibly be given that poland g d p is much less than these other western nations. well, american funding has been pouring into poland over the past few years. the u. s. congress approved $288000000.00 worth of foreign military financing last year, under the guise of countering russia. warsaw has also scored $34000000.00 in security assistance to improve intelligence capabilities and military mobility over the past 5 years. with $1200000000.00 in sales of u. s. defense articles to poland just between 20192021. that's according to the state department. so with washington playing sugar daddy, it's not exactly surprised that poland is in lock step with washington strategy in ukraine. instead of saying that russia cannot win, or ukraine cannot be defeated, we should change the paradigm and say, ukraine must win. russia must be defeated, germany in france. the economic and military powers of europe have at least tried at times to temper the gung ho wash

poland backs ukraine's demands for f-16 fighter js. the u.s. is not ready to send planes yet, but that could change. >> week will keep standing up for the same things to matter what. reporter: with public support for the war slipping and america, the president made a direct appeal to america's fundamental values and the need to fight for them. >> freedom. stand with us and we willtand with you. let us move forward with faith and conviction. commitment to be allies not of darkness but of light. not of oppression but of liberation. not of captivity but of freedom. may god bless you all, may god protect our troops and may god bless the heroes of ukraine. reporter: proud that mr. prudence expectations have been -- >> after president biden had concluded his speech, sarah joined me from warsaw to discuss it. this was a passionate uncompromising speech from president biden. how did it go down there, what will people make of it? reporter: it was greeted very warmly here because of course you have to remember in poland for still feel a bit vulnerable. n

and we know the country where you are right now . poland. poland has been very, very clear, and it's positioned, it's defiance against russian aggression. and has there been any reaction there in warsaw to this nuclear saber rattling that we've been seeing this week from one of your boot? well, know cecil reactions here from the polish government. however, joe biden was asked about putting decision to says pans. then you start treaty and he described his decision as a bit big mistake. and of course and leaders are concerned what that could mean for the future. because of course, this was the last a very important nuclear arms control treaty. and however many experts he also say that, you know, saber rattling is, was as putting das and they think that say he would not go so far as using an nuclear weapons. alexander phenomena the last night for morsel, holden, a vendor. thank you all. as we've heard a number of eastern european nations previously part of the communist east block, they now fear that their sovereignty is once again threatened by russian power. nato has ramped up securit

during decades under the iron fist of communist rule, poland endured because you stood together. that's how brave leaders of the opposition of the people belarus continue to fight for their democracy. that's how the resolve of although when people resolve the people who don't want to live in freedom, went again them in their prentice and put them on the path to e. u membership. president, sand dune is here today. i'm not sure she is, but i am proud to stand with you and the freedom loving people in moldova give her a half round of applause one year and a one year to this war, who no longer doubts the strength of our coalition. but he still doubts our conviction. he doubts our faint power. he doubts our continued support for ukraine . he, das, with our nato to remain unified. but there should be no doubt, our support for grain will not waver. naida will not be divided and we will not tire president boons, craven, lust for land and power will fail. and ukrainian people's love for their country will prevail. democracy of the world stand guard or freedom to day, tomorrow and forever.

what is poland view on that? oh, i can tell you what poland views, but i can tell you what my own is and my own is that for this war to really end, the russians have to conclude that it was a mistake. that the idea of rebuilding the russian empire was wrong. that is beyond russia's capability and that therefore they but it cut the losses and withdrawal. and if china could be helpful in that. yeah, that would be. that could be a very good thing. yeah. how do you think china would be most helpful to that end? well, i think is tom in different directions, because on the one hand, it must be seeing that recovering a so called the renegade province is harder than you think. they probably don't want coaching to fall. and they must understand that if they cited with russia in this war, there would be dire economy consequences, not even sanctions. you know, millions of people would, would start consumables. and what can the u. s. a specifically do then to make that clear to china? well, just like before, the invasion, wh

the people of poland know that. you know it better than anyone here in poland because that's what solidarity means, through partition and oppression, when the beautiful city was destroyed after the warsaw uprising after decades under the iron fist of communist rule, poland endured because you stood together. that's how brave leaders of the opposition and the people of belarus continue to fight for their democracy. that's how the resolve of moldovan people, the resolve of moldovan people, the resolve of moldovan people, the resolve of the people of moldova to live in freedom gained them independence and put them on the path to eu membership. their president is here today and i'm proud to stand with you and the people of moldova. give her a round of applause. one year into the war, putin no longer doubts the coalition but he still doubts our conviction and staying power. he doubts our continued support for ukraine, he doubts whether nato can remain unified but there should be no doubt, oursupport unified but there sho
