under siege and under fire fighting reaches the center of mario ho. much of the city now lies in ruins and the voluntary army. making sure those too old and frail to leave, and not left hungry and alone. and his orders. ah, is day 24 of the war in ukraine, and russia says it is unleashed. it's a hypersonic missiles for the 1st time. they're known as the kings all or dagger. they say they were used to destroy an underground ammunition and miss osterhouse in western ukraine. elsewhere, one of the city is experiencing the worst. fighting is michael life in the south. russian attacks that buildings as rubble and dozens of ukrainian soldiers believe to being killed. fighting also reached the center of mario pole. the route out of

the port city is one of 10 evacuation corridors. ukraine says were agreed to with russia, but only 8 were available on saturday, with more than 6000 people escaping through them. despite the bombardment ukraine's president brought him, is lensky issued a warning to russia in a video address. he said that unless the territorial integrity and justice was restored for ukraine, russia's losses will be such that it will take several generations to recover or says all heavy across the board though ukraine saying on saturday that 112 children have been killed so far as the bay begins are coverage from the front line and khaki. well, this is one the worst hit areas of hurricane. the 2nd largest city in ukraine had a population of one point. 5000000 students drastically reduced cuz many people have left. and this to the left of me here was a shopping mall. just take a look at that. now. this city has been pounded by the russians with strikes,

shelling and artillery, and were standing right now was the center of the city. and you can just see that is complete and utter destruction and devastation. now, the feeling that the russians thought that they could take this city without too much resistance, but they were forced out and the feeling by some head that now the russians are punishing this since you have to be careful because the temperature of the well below the are the still ice on the floor. this craters along here, these cars here have all been destroyed and damaged a bit further up the you can see the burn tank caused damage to the shelling and the artillery. and even while you've been here, we've heard loud thumps on not shows. we can hear that now that's heavy artillery filing that fire and gas going, gone all day and all night. and if you look a lot wrong along the horizon, you can see smoke rising from the heavy fighting that's taking place. now the

russians empowering the city re heavily for the last 2 weeks. but the ukranian forces are still holding act and hoping that they can keep the russians out. and it's like that across the east of the country where the russians are fighting on multiple fronts. but i just want to take in some more of the devastation and destruction that has taken place here in the center of her keith. you can see cars buried in the rubble and the buildings have collapse on it. or even the trees here are destroyed and burnt out. it's really something oh, we're in the center of clark, if the 2nd largest city with the ukranian forces are still managing to keep the russians out. in her cave, in ne ukraine, a desperate search for survivors in the ruins of buildings. this frontline city has been pummeled since the start of the war. a man flood his love

is pulled from beneath the rubble with just minor cuts. how do you feel? he is asked castilla here. what was her better than any won't come? was the reply at this destroyed army base in the southern city of mc alive. another search for survivors there from the streets of merrier pope. the sounds of fierce fighting and also a voice of defiance. a ukrainian fighter appeals directly to the president of the us in france for defense systems. someone anybody because somebody you have promises they'll be helpful and gave us that help save the civilian population. the children, elderly people dying. he finishes by comparing their plight to the syrian city of aleppo. you had to show the level with much murder you paul, lying in ruins, and completely surrounded by superior forces. ukraine says there is little it can

do militarily. we haven't had them in the medical coverage of us with new put into teams. you know, army in the world will be able to cross or not even the us army with the size of the forces we have now. unfortunately, using one of a number of humanitarian car doors operating in the country, an exodus of people has continued telling the same harrowing tale. well, i do put of opinion. there is no merrier poll. we sat in the cellar for 10 days and didn't leave once. there's been a new appeal from ukraine's president to end the war through dialogue. but julius lou must, i want everyone to hear me, especially in moscow. the time has come to meet him to talk and solution. and does this war grinds on? there's been the competing claims of progress by both sides. the ukrainian say they've been mounting counter attacks and have stopped russian forces surrounding

the capital cave. for its part, russia says it is used a new type of missile with an attack on an installation. in the west of the country . get to work. i mean, i'm going to type the sonic ballistic missiles destroyed a big underground, miss austin, all along with an aerial munitions of the ukrainian forces, ukrainian se overstretched, russian forces are bogged down in much of the country and have resorted to using badly trained recruits in the fight the russians have released combat footage, showing that on the contrary, it's the ukrainians who are on the receiving end. rob mcbride, al jazeera levine. miss robbie is innovative and has more on the strikes at his military barracks in the city of nikolai of the reports, we are getting our quite grim an early morning attack on friday. a russian strike on an army barracks that houses up to 200 potentially 200 soldiers who were still in their bunks. still asleep. that strike has already killed dozens. of at least 50

people, confirmed dead so far. possibly that number could rise to 100. now those reports were getting on the ground, but again, it is difficult to get information out of these areas, especially when it comes to military targets. this country is under martial law, is in a state of war. so these reports coming out, trickling out slowly. but again, a very, very grim seen there as soldiers killed while they are asleep. well, it's been a number of events throughout the day. certainly one of the more hopeful things has been the 10 humanitarian corridors that were negotiated between russia and ukraine . those seem to have held and most significantly for the worst, his city so far in this conflict of mario paul. now we've been getting conflicting reports of who still is in control, whether ukrainian forces have managed to push back russian forces. we've also

getting getting reports of russian forces in mario poll. now there seems to be an ongoing fight for the city. but what we do know is the reports from mario post city council that say as part of the humanitarian court, or they have been able to evacuate 2128 people. among them more than 600 children across the ukrainian capital, a volunteer force has emerged helping those who remain behind the network support some of caves most vulnerable. and ethan had no choice but to stay and faced the russian onslaught. here on con, followed volunteers as they made their daily maps it might not look like it, but these people are providing a vital service without any external funding. anya and her friends deliver groceries and basic goods to some of the most vulnerable and keep some the goods are donated but most

a paid for by the volunteers themselves. level home to hook i always wanted to look in and tear and work. i dont have grandparents so this house and compensate where that it really comes from my heart that say addition, maria rarely leaves the house. she's too frail to make the journey. and the elevator in her building is best described as temperamental. she stayed in the city because she says she has no family to go to without the volunteer should be completely alone and hungry and thirsty. won't gentlemen. i was in hospital, his heart problems and my daughter died recently. i have a niece who could help my public transport this child, so she can't get here or is right now. i don't need anything because then brought me things. but this won't last long. all for the volunteers work under the umbrella of an organization called love life which existed before the war to help the homeless and venerable you're facing now is one of the only organisations of his kind in ukraine still operating and demand for it. services for outstrips its

capacity to cope, the organization has changed the way operates, its identifies the most vulnerable people and post them on a private social media channel. volunteers that make the deliveries navigating the cities. many checkpoints, an anti tank barricades, and it's not just home delivery. yes, kitchens and roadside keel, so also become a frontline of salt in the war effort. most of the restaurants across the city are shot, but the kitchens are open and the sheriffs are working. now they might not be making their usual cuisines. what they're doing is they're making homestar cuisines that then volunteers pick up and bring to distribution points like these. and it is a lifeline for many. this might be the one hot meal that they get a day american out 0 gave one the situation and ukraine alana proclaimed her in co share of the transatlantic task force on ukraine. she joins us now from rieger

in latvia. thank you for being with us. so m, russia says it's used hypersonic missiles for the 1st time in, in ukraine. what you read into that russia has been committing a number of 4 crimes in ukraine. it has been targeting civilians has been using weapons that have been now prohibited by international law. so this is not surprising to us, it's clear that military and corridors are not working. and a russian forces seem to be completely unable to cope with ukrainian army to fight against the army. that's why there are targeting the most the most so helpless the most vulnerable and, and using it weapons against them. unfortunately, you mentioned humanitarian corridors that the, the, the ukraine is giving out the figure of 6623 people evacuated from cities today. saturday by him entering corridors. so there is some degree of that working

well, some degree of that is working, but it's almost almost more safe to advocate through the routes that are not known to russians through the grid orders. we have seen how a number of citizen and towns and ukraine reported that women and children who were peacefully advocating have been shot and killed standing in the q score if occasion. so unfortunately, it's all there. and there is no guarantee that these orders will not turn into a living targets in the coming hours and days because they already are, as you, as you know, at least 112 children. ukraine have been killed by the russian forces and thousands of civilians in total have already been killed. how much resistance is still possible? do you think in some of the towns that have been so pounded by russia? well, if you look at how and not only the bring an army,

not only the civil and defense, but also regular citizens are responding to the russian aggression. or you can see that even if russia tried to argue by ukrainian the whole ukraine, or at least some, some areas and ukraine, some cities and towns. it would not be able to maintain that occupation because of regular citizens would attack them in the street that they would, they would shot them in the streets every single day and the in the ground will burn under their feet. it's completely unusual for ukrainians to weave under occupation. we are free people were not used to that and were not willing to come up with that at the same time i, despite the storm response that brings given to the russian army, it's still one of the largest ones in the world's 2nd largest, at least in terms of quantity and we do need western systems, western air defense systems, and anti and missile defense systems to stand up to this russian because of course

our forces are not equal. and we've heard from president events that he's called for comprehensive peace talks with moscow. do you think we will hear zelinski put in meeting anytime soon? well, as of now, it looks like russia is completely able to, to negotiate with the grain meaningfully. it doesn't seem to be ready for any kind of meaningful dialogue and compromise. so i cannot see how the piece talks can be effective in the coming days as ukrainian literature saying it takes weeks to achieve some progress. i think russia and we've had enough experience with it to know that is only able to understand the language force or we need to be equipped to give a strong military response to russia. and this seems to be the only way to, to respond to this impression alina pro, hoping her,

thank you very much. need for sharing your thoughts. ok. thank you. coming up on al jazeera, this hour. we report from moscow on how the invasion of ukraine is pin to impact every day russians and russian cosmonaut so greeted by us astronauts at the international space station. but the future of the project could be at risk and a sport. ferrari come out and talking, qualifying for the former one season, opening race in bahrain. ah, as we've reported to russia, says it's been destroying ukrainian military targets with high precision weapons. it says it's used to hypersonic missiles in western ukraine for the 1st time, this conflict. that's not been independently verified. dr. jabari has more from moscow. i think it's significant where it was used. it was used in the western region of ukraine in ivana rankoff ski, which shares

a 50 kilometer long border with romania. that is a needle member country. a lot of it wouldn't have sat in the past. that's a country, an advanced, ma'am missile and hypersonic missiles and that russia is really proud. prides itself on having the advanced weaponry in its arsenal. and the use of this is significant because it really is another reminder to nato countries in, at the region that russia is at willing to use whatever it has in its arsenal to achieve its mission in ukraine. vladimir putin on friday at, during that rally that they held in moscow said that we know what we have to do. we know how to do it and we know what we have to sacrifice in order to achieve our plans. this is yet another very significant and dangerous reminder that this country is willing to use whatever it has militarily to achieve its goals. they're

in ukraine, families put years, a former director of policy planning at nato. he believes russia's alleged use of hypersonic missiles could be a sign of putin's desperation, as he could use, trying to send a message to obviously ukrainian people that western ukraine is not a century better. so message to the west that the conversation about providing the ukrainians with system. he's not afraid of that and you have what it takes to pierce through the ukraine. any other offense? it's embarrassing escalation, because this is not a typically conventional type me sign. it's not a cruise me science, so it's not that we see nuclear weapons or it's not strategy is just below. so it is an escalation, better for you. so, so potentially a sign of desperation. because i mean, by that, he's trying to send a message to the russian people showing that, you know, he's willing to,

for all the great technology, russian technology and the problem. but really, it's obvious that he's not going to be able to prevail. it come back operations by using the size that you probably only have a few of their given how expensive sophisticated they are. clearly, routine has failed already. actually, it's a regional goal of the get the painting, the ukrainian government and replacing it at minimum cost with russian friendly government. now what he's doing, instead of trying to dig up, the government is trying to bring the your credit population to. it's nice and that's why you see things in by you bought. you also see growing pressure on population centers in west and ukraine. and this is why i think the support we are willing to provide to students that sort of crush out for he to resist and him to have a strong position in the current diplomatic negotiations. russians are just beginning

to grapple with the challenges facing their economy and sanctions and international isolation begin to bite from inflation to supply chain logistics. every corner of the economy will feel the fact that it smith has more from loss. can every copay counts as russians begin to feel the effect of sanctions on their economy. $1.00 bought $75.00 roubles before the war. now it buys a 100. that means high prices for imported goods, such as the fruit and veggies in this market. what guns yet they is learned, the sweets used to cost $70.00 roubles. now they cost $100.00 and she can also, we don't leave a luxury light, but the prices went had, notably, and actually the price of sugar went up significantly more than $10.00. and i ran out of salt and sugar and i couldn't find them now. today they appeared. no, my pension would be a nasty. it is not so little, but i spent almost half of it on medicines. so very little remains of

everything is more expensive. sorry, fish used to be a 120 we. those now is 480 last i me bought buckwheat almost 200, very expensive. it's hard for us. we want to eat. russian president vladimir putin has acknowledged that sanctions mean the economy will need what he calls deep structural changes. they won't be easy. he said before the war and ukraine inflation here. it was already over 9 percent the highest. it's been in 7 years that could now double an interest rates are 20 percent. all of this putting a real squeeze on russian incomes ah, or the russian association of patriotic entrepreneurs. some believe there are opportunities to be had as western firms pull out. though 1st, there are practical challenges to work around from virginia. the whole supply chain has been damaged. yet many producers are not sending raw materials of finished products to russia, even if they are, containers aren't leaving because of concerns about sanctions. so

a big question for processing, industrious is, what is their logistic chamber? durable dollar exchange rate is also a big stress. many russians credit their president with stabilizing the economy after the collapse of the soviet union. it grew, every year vladimir putin was in office until a global financial crisis. a group of international banks now expects economic output to fall by up to a 3rd. this year. bernard smith, al jazeera moscow, about 2 events in ukraine. andrew english is from the united nations children's fund unicef. he joins us now from levine and i got the, you know, stuff is highlighting the risk of human trafficking during this one of a scale of numbers of children who've had to leave on their own. for example, and who are risk? thanks so much. 5 milan. yeah, it's a, it's a huge concern and fast. i mean, the numbers alone, a staggering. we know that 1650000 children,

almost 1700000 children have now fled ukraine in neighboring countries. and the 3300000 are entirely this place. now, in terms of the numbers of companies and separate the children, this is more difficult. you know, we know that it's a huge risk, but with the situation with poland and romania, mo, data that having a very generously open open that borders. it's been far harder for us to identify children who may be separated. but you know, any of these cases is always likely when children are separated from that having. so that caregivers, you know, the, the risk of exploitation trafficking, abuse enforcement, child labor is sky high. and we know that gangs and criminal networks already exists across these countries. and indeed across europe. and so it's pretty critical that we, that we scale up our programming and our response to this to, to really mitigate that. and given that is a fast moving refugee crisis, what sort of measures can you put in place that will reduce those risk or, and what, what can governments do to, to prevent those kind of risks?

yes, i me, so we are working with you and they are the refugee agency and local authorities across the refugee hosting countries. does that have blue dot centers? now these are effectively child friendly spaces where children can come and play in this toys and pens and paper haven't can come say in the knowledge that that kids are safe. and they can just rest for a moment. but we also have child protection specialists, counselors, legal experts that provides sort of a one stop shop and all of the services for children and families may need. because the best way to prevent the risk of tracking is this medication is identifying vulnerable children, bundle families. but for they have the chance to fall into the hands of smugglers and traffic is know in the u. k. when the issue of traffic and or the risk of traffic was brought up, there was a suggested it getting more comprehensive background checks on families who are prepared to host refugees, which would then slow down the person to people getting how's, how to governments or, or people who are facilitating these kind of things manage,

mitigate those, those risks, balance risk, people not having any way to live with, with the rest of the children completely. i mean it's, again, it's about identifying those most vulnerable. i was on the board of poland just last week and a lot of the family to were coming through, especially in the 1st initial wave. they had a clear idea of where they were going. they were finding friends, family, you know, they had known contacts that they were trying to reach elsewhere in europe. what we're seeing now is it's more family to being forced into the decisions. you know, and these are among the most part of where they may be undocumented, they may have other vulnerabilities. and so ensuring that they are able to be referred to the systems which exist. you know, we know that in, in poland for example, that child protection system, social services. so it's about making that link between these button mobile families and the services that exist. and not only just so, you know, saying why we provide your costs. and now now we've done, you know,

we need to be following up with these every step, the way to make sure that they getting the, the cad, susan, the long term help that they're going to need to rebuild their lives. and on that, i mean it's on the broader issues in children often described as resilient, but presumably many of these children will either have endured terrible suffering on the way. or at least, you know, i've seen seen things that it, that they would rather not have seen what sort of help can i get to, to try and deal with what they've been going through. yeah, i mean, you're not wrong. i spend the last couple of days in a hospital in here in the 8th and, you know, the, the stories of the kids met one young boy, 15 years old. andre, 2 weeks ago he was in a car with his mom and his cousin. when they hit the la mine and he saw his mother passed away before his eyes in planes. and you cannot begin to imagine the pain that children are going through. and as you say, you know, this is not, children are resilient, but this is not something which they're going to be able to deal with by themselves

and say they need dedicated can support trained psychologists and psycho social workers to provide this cat. you know, because 1.6 plus 1000000 refugees, 3300000 displaced. these are almost 5000000 children force in their homes. that's 5000000 children, you know, who have had their lives turned upside down. the scale of this is huge, huge amount. 3 done. you know, the infection support corporation solidarity is desperately needed. sterling is thank you very much indeed for scheduling a meeting. thank you. still head in the news are 16 candidates are to end the political deadlock in ages. youngest democracy. this is for to day italian rugby fans and waited 7 years for 6 nations action coming. ah

hello, we got some lovely spring sunshine across much of northern year, a big area of high fresh air and it's going to warm up as we go through the next couple of days. it's not particularly warm at present, but that is a strong area of high pressure. it means largely clear skies early morning, fog and frost for the time being, as i said, it will warm up. the unsettled weather is further south. the remnants of storm cda still bring you some lively showers in across the western side of the mediterranean . there we go with the temperature, so not too bad. temperature is about whether it should be for central pass, or you have still a cool site down towards that southeast corner. but as we go through the next couple of days, like a sunday, 13 celsius there in berlin, 11 degrees in london, happy low, the average. it will warm up monday 40 could touch 17 by tuesday, maybe 19 by wednesday. and there's that warmth into central parts is going to be absolutely lovely then not too bad at the moment,

largely clear skies to water to showers. just a rather low countries where to, well, still in place that out across southern parts of france, that western side of the mediterranean, spain to portugal seen some bits and pieces of cloud and re we have got some, shall assess the lingering down towards the southeast corner showers to across northern parts of africa. quite a brisk wind and showers for west africa. ah . with jealousy, she does with a clamor. it's part of our culture to look our very best for a special occasion and for that people will spend money. everything you see on the cut will they do with the is going to be longevity. john will have to come in and tell me things and my, my jerry, on our do there are trying to,

in the us sleep walking their way to war in the struggle over ukraine. here is the test for president joe biden, with miss really trying to do is rewrite the security architecture in europe. it's your personal united states history. if you go to walking through gum at the same time, your weekly pay on us politics and society, that's the bottom line. revealing eco friendly solutions to come back. threats to our planet on al jazeera, with the a, one of the top stories here now to 0. russia says it is unleashed it's hypersonic

missiles for the 1st time on day $24.00 of the war. they say they used the dagger missiles to destroy an underground ammunition rescues a searching for survivors after dozens of ukrainian soldiers believe to be killed in a russian attack on the southern city of macon. i have ukrainian president malesky remains defiant, telling russians that unless they back down, they will take several generations to recover from their losses. crowds of anti war progresses of rallied in france is capital to show solidarity with ukraine. demonstrations, such as this had been held across european capital since the invasion for more than 3 weeks ago. on friday, the french president in one year to my co pressed for an immediate cease fire in a phone call with vladimir putin. turkey is now one of the main site trees for russian anti war dissidence. turkish airlines is one of the few overseas alan still flying in and out of moscow. russian passport holders are allowed visa,

free entry for 60 days, didn't cost you lou met some of them in istanbul. yeah. queuing to get into a cherry to rep concert in a stumbles catacomb district. 100 so fractions here. united in showing their opposition to their country's war in ukraine and support for the ukrainian fight to stop the invasion. most of them are young and a well educated russians. if you're either more in your nissan or placement, you can go to the jail. yeah. others say they were arrested for joining anti war protests in cities back home. and that's one time before i got to read because it was in some morales i got fires. also in a stumble is elissa server,

the russian actors left moscow 2 weeks ago to crime her life into the small room and hostile. she has a russian passport, but half of her family is ukrainian, like many of her peers. she was born after russian president vladimir putin was elected whenever chose him. we're literally ahead. well, sir, i just, a couple years ago, we never wanted for this government. people feel guilty generation that they trying to do something fun and some possible danger. but living in turkey means many challenges lie, a hat, the russian anti war new comers need a life to settle housing, money due to the crippling international sanctions. their credit cars don't work. most have no plan. pretty nice and clean and it's good enough to even rep a port is an answer poll as you were searcher who left russia 9 years ago. she has been in a stumble for nearly 2 years and stayed out of politics. but now she hobbs also

russians have fled to get a roof over their heads. i cannot go on and do my regular day. busy or something so unjust, so uncalled for the happening. fathers in south exile, few for the future and prudence potential revenge. when he turns back from the war, he will turn his eyes to the people that did not support his actions and then will be war inside. as soon as russians come, ukrainians also ended up in a stumble. hewick is married to a russian and cousin, but felt he wasn't safe there or in his hometown cave, either thrill instead that russian people they worry about the economy when people die. turkey is one of the issues, estimation scapes to russians who are against war, but even to fighting

a new queen. and soon russians may face 15 year prison sentence if they return home because of their social media posts, and they are opposition to the invasion. soon i'm crystal al jazeera stumble. cynthia minute addresses the authors hate in the homeland the new global far right . she says, putins talk of d notification is baseless propaganda, but she says, extremism is an issue in ukraine. ukraine, like other military is a german military. the us military has had a problem with far, right extreme it them white the premises among their ranks. it's a minority problem, a very small percentage, but it's a persistent problem in ukraine. that problem has grown since 2014 as ultra nationalist, fractions and militia were clashing with pro russian separatists, you know,

or with russia itself and, and have drawn foreign fighters from overseas. again, not all of whom were far right in nature, but some of them are. and that is what we're seeing now to is that there are some recruitment immobilization happening among global white supremacists to go to ukraine and use this opportunity to, to gain tactical training and combat experience. they may not really have any political objectives in mind related to ukraine, but it's an opportunity to gain training it to recruit to, to fundraise. so that's the danger is that people are going there. the other danger, of course, is that people go there because they want to defend ukraine and then become radicalized while they're there because they get into a mix of people who have these ideological views once they're there. in some ways, it's not so dissimilar to the foreign fighters that we saw going to fight, you know, overseas for, for in islamist extremist groups. you have this,

you have this drug globally here in this case. what the difference is, i think that you have tens of thousands of people going for, you know, just because they want to defend ukraine in this situation. and among that there are a few dozen documented cases, you know, in the mix. so it is again, a pretty small proportion of identified me, of course, hard to know how many others there might be that are not known to authorities. so some countries have put in extra, like in the u. k. they've put in extra checks at the depart your points of exit with people headed to ukraine to try to detect why are they going and figure this out. but in most places, those kinds of precautionary measures haven't happened yet. so we don't really know how big the problem is or how big it could be. it's certainly not rising. the level of the propaganda, the suggested by any means there's no, you know, nationwide do not cation needed. but, but it is a troubling situation when you have the opportunity to combat, train like that for people who want to do damage done in their home,

come home countries when they return. ah, united states says it's profoundly disappointed following a visit by syrian president, bashar and i said to the united arab emirates, reports, syrian forces could be deployed in ukraine to support the russian invasion. the u. s. it also accusing its close ally the u. a of the just amazing the serial leader by hosting his 1st trip to another, our country. since the war and serial began in 2011 santa holder report. it was a syrian precedence 1st visit to an arab country since an uprising against his will began in 2011. but the u way is engagement with the once widely shunned, bashar assad is not new. and it has been happening, despite opposition, from long time ally the united states. the biden administration was swift in

condemning the visit, saying it is profoundly disappointed and troubled by an attempt to legitimize a leader responsible for atrocities. but many believe this was not just about bringing damascus back to the arab fold by host thing i said, the u e. wanted to make a statement to the west. look, you guys have left us as in the middle east, in a vacuum or by your partial withdraw. and the partnership that we have with united states is no longer functioning. you're not delivering on the security on the security guarantees that you're giving particular as we're looking towards the j. c . p. o. 2 point oh, being negotiated with iran and the america saying we're taking over responsibility . we want to share the burden. we're taking the burden, but we're doing it our way rushes invasion of ukraine has exposed rifts between washington and it allies in the middle east, the u. e. and saudi arabia, the gulf nations which host us forces, have so far avoided taking a position against russia. it's not just that they are not supporting you as
