2:16 am
minister says berlin will ramp up aid for key as soon as possible. germany recently reversed decades of policy and supplied weapons to ukraine under the pot. now the fun gets, get pumped out to other partners now supplying armored vehicles. i would like to say he and clearly this is not to be for us either to my, even if it's sometimes sounds like it in the german debase. but we have already agree to such deliveries, but we don't have anything available at short notice that we can now deliver really quickly and immediately. yes, and speaking about the war, u. s. president joe biden says russia underestimate to the level of unity countries would show against the invasion machine. just how vital or alliances and partnerships are around the world are as you step an op amp and find the impact response and it was united, focused and energized as is everywhere. remember, she knew as you know,
2:17 am
i'm confident of my life speaking. i don't think that there couldn't and you asked me to report say, president biden is expected to announce an additional $800000000.00 in military aid to ukraine this week. that would be on top of the same amount announced by the white house last week. that included the helicopters, artillery pieces and armored personnel carriers separately. nato has also supplied ukraine with tanks. helicopters, and heavy weapons. e. u. member states have contributed nearly $3000000000.00 to ukraine. podium you gave germany and france. i've been the main providers. let's bring in holland all my military expert from the atlantic council in washington dc . he's a former advisor to the u. s. defense department, harlan. let's talk 1st about matter. you pull the situation, they're extremely desperate with ukrainian military commanders making those urgent please for help. is it too late for the defenders? do you think and what will it take to free? the thousands of people still trapped that i'm afraid that mary oval is lost. so we
2:18 am
were not able to provide enough equipment in time. and so we have to understand that the defense was heroic. but i think that mary uncle has gone the really issue will now shift to the don boss. there's some $40000.00 ukranian troops that are facing the current onslaught. and the question is very simple. will the west be able to provide them with sufficient amounts of equipment in sufficient numbers and capability to be able to withstand the onslaught that is now the issue? and one can only hope that ukrainians will have the wherewithal to be able to resist those attacks. because if they are not, then i'm afraid that lot and who and the russians will be able to overwhelm what's happening indeed. and that will lead to a divided country and a war that will not be finished for a very long time. yeah, holland, that's an important point to make because the us says it's landed artillery and
2:19 am
other supplies into ukraine. this week. and western allies were saying that they both promised more help. but how do you get all that help into mary paul? it's completely surrounded by the russians and the ukrainians, as you say, need this help yesterday. this is like the stalingrad in 1942. when the russian, the german army under pol yvonne palos was surrounded by the russians, i don't know that you can and quite frankly, the amount of artillery, 18 pieces of a 155 millimeter artillery are, are not sufficient. you understand that the logistics are important. you've got to provide tens of thousands of grounds. and so the issue is very simple. can we provide enough of what ukraine needs in a timely fashion to make a difference? that is what this battle will rest on. and i'm uncertain about the outcome unless we can do that. holland just talk us quickly through why matter you polish so strategically important for the russians,
2:20 am
we hear that the city is key to establishing this. this land corridor between don bass in the east and crimea, which is already annex. so russia clearly needs to take matter. you pull at all costs. well, i don't agree with that quite frankly, because if the ukrainians were able, there is a land bridge. i called across the curt peninsula that linked both ends of the sea of as off. if that bridge were to be destroyed, the russians would have to go around that would ruin the russian land bridge. so i think that mary helpful is much more of an emotional issue than it is of a real strategic one. ukrainians need to take that bridge down and that would really destroy the ability of the russians be able to resupply crimea, whether they are capable of doing that or not. i certainly words that when i had also urged using whatever capacity they have to destroy, the black sea fleet is vital right now for the psychological effects they will have on moscow. hold on just a final thought to you earlier be so russia test why,
2:21 am
what it says was this new intercontinental ballistic missiles, the u. s. as it was notified of a launch and that it's pretty routine. but how much do you think this is? raise the terrifying specter of perhaps nuclear escalation over the conflict and ukraine. while i raised in a column, it becomes desperate, he could threaten using nuclear weapons. and this is, these are not the strategic weapons, but what we need to do in advance is that nato has to say, if you use a nuclear weapon in ukraine, we in ukraine will be able to destroy your logistics and much of your military. and that will make sure that you will lose. so don't even consider using nuclear weapons in ukraine. i hope to, by the administration has the courage to be able to take that stand and let moscow know what the red lines are. in this case, nuclear weapons are not going to be used. and if so, we and nato will retaliate in
2:22 am
a way which will ensure that russia will lose in ukraine. and we have the capacity to do that and put knows that it's a horrifying spectra, holland. many times we're inside harlem, thank you very much indeed for talking about now the humans has more than 5000000 ukrainians. now refugees less than 8 weeks into the war and with a new offensive launched in the east and don bass. people in poland wondering just how many more could be on the way under chappelle report. at this refugee center in warsaw, victoria flicks past photos on her phone of her family's home in mary a pole. what was left of it? the days she got out of the city, much has changed in nearly 2 months of war. and not much is left of her city. lou blige, humanly fear of what we cry. we all have the feeling that we've no home. we've no idea where to go. what to do where to run it's very scary. more than half of ukrainian refugees are in poland and the government is figuring out how to
2:23 am
accommodate even more. but officials wonder when the system will break. we see the escalation in southern and eastern ukraine and there are 7000000 ukrainians or rigged displaced in ukraine. so of course, that poses a problem. what if another way for comes and here we needs international and european solutions, we need a system in place because otherwise it will be very, very difficult to absorb more refugees. oh, it's hard to describe the enormity of the situation. a man made catastrophe for the ukrainian people are to grasp the heartache felt by the women and children who had to say good bye to husbands and fathers on a bus there. william, we left dad and keith ear and dad will be selling things and helping our heroes or army of the way he might even fight. when you mama, i nation, the scene a quarter of
