8:31 pm
we have sacred obligation we have a savior obligation to comply, to defend each and every inch. no territory. the full force mar, collective power. and early today, i visit your national stadium. thousands your credit, refugees, not trying to answer the toughest questions a human can ask. my god, what's going to happen to me? what's going to happen? my family. i shut tears many. the mother's eyes, i embrace them. they're young children, young children, not sure with a smile or cry. one little girl said mister president, she spoke with languish in my brother and my daddy. are they going to be okay? well, i see them again. not their husbands or father's many cases and brothers and sisters
8:32 pm
who stayed back to fight for their country. i didn't have to speak the language and understand the language to feel the emotion in their eyes where they gripped my hand. little kids on my leg praying the desperate hope. all this is temporary apprehension that they may be perhaps, forever away from their homes, almost of debilitating sadness. this is happening all over again. but it was also struck by the generosity people, of course not for that matter, all the polish people to the depths of their compassion. they're willing to reach out opening part of their warranty halls simply to hell.
8:33 pm
i also want to thank my friend, the great american sheriff was the address in his team to help feeling the feeling . those were yearning to be free. but helping these refugees is not something paul, under any other nation, should carry alone. all the world democracies have a responsibility of them. the people have huge crank, encountered the united states, made its responsibility, announced 2 days ago. we will welcome 100000 ukranian refugees where already have 8000 a week coming to the united states of other nationalities will provide a 300000000 dollar g manager and assistance. providing tens of thousands of tons of food, water medicine and other basic supplies. and brussels, i announced the united states prepared to provide, or the $1000000000.00 additional, mandatory 8, the world food program,
8:34 pm
told us to spite significant obstacles. at least some really get into major cities in ukraine. but not much. your poll now is going to be marable, because russian forces are blocking relief supplies, but will not cease reference. your manager and relief forever is needed in ukraine . the people who made it out of ukraine. notwithstanding the brutality of latimer to be no doubt that this war has already been strategic. failure for russia already lost children myself. i know that no solace. the people lost family, but he put for ukraine to roll over and not fight.
8:35 pm
not much of a student of history. instead, russian forces have met their match with brave and stiff, creative resistance, rather than breaking ukrainian resolve. russia group tactics have strengthened the result. rather than driving no part, the west is now stronger, more united and there's ever been rush. you want to less of a present on a more, but now he has a stronger presence. a larger presence was over a 100000 american troops, along with all the other members of nato. in fact, russia managed to cause something. i'm sure you never intended. a democracy world or revitalized with purpose and unity found and much that we'd want to take in years to accomplish this. not only rushes actions and ukraine, reminding us of democracy blessings. it's our own country. his own country,
8:36 pm
the kremlin, is jailing protesters, 200000 people to allegedly already left brain drain, levy russian, shutting down independent news. state media is all propaganda. blocking image of civilian targets, mass graves, ration tactics. the russian forces and ukraine is any wonder, as i said, a $200000.00 russians of all left their country in one month, a remarkable brain day, in such a short period of time. which brings me to my message to the russian people. i work with russian leaders for decades. i sat across the negotiated table going all the way back to sober lexi proceeding. talk arms control the height of the cold war. i've always spoken directly and honestly to you, the russian people. let me say this, if you're able to listen, you the russian people are not our enemy. i refused to believe that you welcome the
8:37 pm
killing of innocent children and grandparents, or that you accept hospital schools. maternity wars for god's sake be pummeled with russia, missiles and bombs, or cities been surrounded so the civilians cannot flee. supplies cut off and attempting to starve. ukraine and submissions. millions of families are being driven from their home, including half of all ukraine's children. these are not the actions of a great nation of all people you the russian people, as well as other people across europe still have the memory beat in a similar situation. in light thirty's and forty's, situation war 2, still freshman mines and many grandparents in the region. whatever your generation experience, whether it experience a seizure, leningrad, i heard about it from your parents or grandparents. train station is overflowing
8:38 pm
with terrified families playing their home night, sheller and, and base. this is seller morning sitting through the rubble in your homes. these are not members of the past, not a more exactly with the russian army is doing ukraine right now. march 26th, 2022. just days before we're at the 20 for you are 21st century nation. what hopes and dreams? people all in the world half themselves in the family. now the latter boons, aggression have cut you the russian people off from the rest of the world. and it's taking russia back to the 19th century. this is matt who you are. this is not the future reserve your reserve for your families and your children. telling the truth, this floor is not worthy of you, the russian people prudent can must. and this for the american people stand with
8:39 pm
you and the brave should as ukraine, who want peace my message of the rest of europe. this new battle for freedom is already made a few things. crystal clear. first, europe much as dependence on russian fossil fuels. and we deny states will help that's why just sit and russel's line on the plan with the president your commission to get europe through the immediate energy crisis over the long term. as a matter of economic security and security of the survivability of the planet. we all need to move as quickly as possible to clean renewable energy and work together to help get that done. so the days when the nation been subject to the whims of a tyrant for a general g needs are over,
8:40 pm
they must and they must end. and 2nd, we have to fight the corruption coming to the crew to give rods russian people a fair chance. finally, most there's usually we maintain absolute unity. we must among the world's democracies. it's not a not to speak the rhetorical flourish of ennobling words of democracy, of freedom, of quality and liberty, all of us, including here in poland, much to the hard work democracy, each and every day on my country as well. that's why that's why okay, do europe again this week with a clear and determined message for nato, for the g 7 for the european union. for all freedom loving nations, we must commit now, to be in this fight for the long haul, we must remain unified today and tomorrow on the day after for the years. and that
8:41 pm
is the call. it will not be easy. there will be costs, but it's a price we have to pay because the darkness of drives i'll talk prosy is on the way no match for the flame of liberty that likes the souls of free people everywhere. time and again, history shows that some of the darkest moments, the greatest progress follows. and history shows. this is the task of our time, the task of this generation. let's remember the hammer blow that brought down the berlin wall. the might lifted the iron curtain were not the words of a single. later, it was the people of europe for decades. fought to free themselves, their share bravery over the board of region, austria, and hungry. for the paying your picnic. they join hands for the broader way
8:42 pm
they stood for solidarity here in poland together was an unmistakable among the bible force of the people that the soviet union could not withstand. were seen once again today. with a brave u, my great people, showing that their power of many is greater than the whirl of any one dictated soon this hour. but the words pope john paul burn as brightly today never, ever gave up hope. never doubt, never, tired, never become discouraged. be not afraid the. 2 again, then rebuilding an empire will never raise people's love for liberty. brutality
8:43 pm
will never, ryan down there will be free. ukraine will never be a victory for russia or free people refuse to live in a world of hopelessness and darkness will have a different future. a brighter future rooted democracy and principle open light of decency, dignity, freedom of possibilities. for god's sake, this man cannot remain power. god bless you all and may god defend our freedom and may god protect our troops. thank you for your patience. thank you. that was you as president joe biden speaking in the war. so 2 days of meetings in europe, it was one of the more animated speeches of the us president since he is in duration. he used very strong language, such as describing persian as a liar and his claims about the not the fine ukraine as obscene. he said that we
8:44 pm
need to steal ourselves for the long fight. ahead and quoted pope john paul, the 2nd to be not afraid. alright, let's bring in our white house correspondent, kimberly hell kit who was following that speech. kimberly, it certainly was a strong address. what did you make of what he had to say? well, as expected, the u. s. president did characterize the russian invasion of ukraine as being much more consequential than just one country invading another. but this is really. 6 much bigger scale. 1 battle that is taking place, one that has historical roots and one that is a challenge of this generation. the u. s. president, talking about how this is a battle for democracy against one authorial terry and liter vladimir putin, the russian leader, and the u. s. president referenced repeatedly historical examples of where
8:45 pm
a the central and eastern europe has been under soviet rule, but how the power of the people collectively over time and through low to, to use the cliche, blood sweat and tears were able to overcome the authoritarian rule. 2 then the soviet union and the point that the u. s. president is making is that the world now has a choice to fight for democracy or see the world deteriorate and see many of those hard fight democracies and battles for the people to be lost. so the earth president highlighted already what he believes has been a collective response is the west in the fact that there has been in just the last month since latimer parent invaded, there has been an enormous amount of coordinated sanctions. the u. s. president has talked about the effectiveness of that saying that the rubel, the russian rubel,
8:46 pm
has been reduced to rubble. he also spoke at one point directly to vladimir putin saying that you may have tried to, to, we can nato divide nato, but it is now much stronger and much more menacing than ever before. and that there is no intention of nato in baiting is. vladimir putin has the ledge. britain said it has always been intended for defense. and of course, the us president very quickly pointing out that when it comes to those fleeing ukraine, that it is not just poland here in war saw where so many are escaping that is the responsibility of poland to address. but it is a collective responsibility of all nato countries, underscoring and pushing for more of those. c refugees to be absorbed into other countries. and finally, i think the most important point the president made was that really this is an opportunity for the world to, to really show that is in this generation,
8:47 pm
making a choice. this is something that is worth fighting for the u. s. president. making the case that in fact, there is a need for people to rise up against what he sees. something very intimidating and very quickly. the last point that the us president was making is that he felt directly to the russian people, recognizing that they 2 are victims in all of this. and recognizing that if they can hear or what he has to say, the world is empathizing with them as well. that they believe he believes they are caught in the middle of this struggle. and so the u. s. president, wrapping up these 3 days of meetings with a very strong message out of war, saw one where he hopes that democracy will prevail over what he sees is the greatest challenge to democracy right now. and that is vladimir putin an autocratic rule in day. thank you. very much for breaking down for us. kimberly. how could our
8:48 pm
white house correspondent in warsaw covering president joe biden's address and the crimes military says, russian forces have entered the city of sla verge, north of keep a use t gas to disperse people, protesting against the presence of russian troops earlier. ukrainian officials said the mayor of savoy, which had been objected, but he's been released. i say russian forces have also seized the city's hospital. meanwhile, ukraine and russia have a great on opening 10 humanitarian cargoes. the people in merrier poll having to use their own means of transport to get out. iran con has those details. the russians of their craniums have negotiated 10 humanitarian corridors to be opened on saturday. one of those is in the besieged city of murray. awful. but what we're hearing is it's very difficult for residents to get to the edge of the city and to that humanitarian corridor and get out because there is still intense selling going
8:49 pm
on. we're also hearing that the russians have not allowed bus drivers to take people in large number out of the city using coaches. instead, people are having to you to use their own private cars to get out was limits of the numbers of people that can actually leave now humanitarian car. those do work both ways. and the ukranian side, there is a problem still trying to get aid into mario full and aid into that city, but also in other humanitarian corridors, particularly in the keep old us the key region. we're hearing that at least one town or where a humanitarian corridor has been opened. there is constant shelling, one resident of that sound said he was trying to leave. he wanted to leave, but there was an intense sheylan going on, and he couldn't get out the city. this has been a constant complaint by the ukranian authority say that every time they negotiate his humanitarian corridors, russia doesn't abide by the sci fi. they've said this publicly,
8:50 pm
they say this privately, they've been saying saying this for a very long time now. and it seems to me that at least in today's humanitarian corridor, in one of those sounds we're hearing that the shelling is still continuing me, my ukrainian resistance and logistical problems and said to be slowing russian troops. as i looked toward the southern port city of a desa, that's where stephanie decker found this report. i'd, as has been preparing for a russian assault for weeks, now we're in the city center. it is heavily fortified. you need special permission to get her in the military is very specific, insensitive by what we can and cannot film. now there's also an element of psychological warfare happening here. we're told you can hear the shelling from the russian fleet constantly, also ukrainian air defense systems in place. and we did speak to one soldier who told us that the situation has been changing somewhat over the last couple of days . so daughter, michaela mor this tuition is he think up with me, but we already, we don't have another choice. we will go to the enemy bar. no one can pick this up
8:51 pm
because, or this is ukraine or was still graham and what this war has done as united ukrainians across the country. and here in odessa and many restaurants, you see this happening basically preparing food for the soldiers, for the volunteers, for the front lines, for the refugees. it is very much a shock still when you speak to people saying that they never believed that this would have happened, but now was the time to come together and did you everything ah, to fight the russians? certainly here in odessa, they've been preparing for, for a russian a seat on the city, the country's biggest c port. but everyone here will tell you that they will not be able to take it to other world news now. and the saudi coalition has launched the air strikes in santa and her day in retaliation against attacks on its oil facilities. yemen who the rebels say they hit several areas inside the kingdom on friday. one was near the formula, one circuit in jetta where the saudi arabia grand prix will be held on sunday. as
