>> the best way to remember john lennon is to be inspired by his optimism, his integrity, his clarity, and his love for his family. he was the real deal. ♪ live from cnn world headquarters in atlanta, welcome to all of you watching us here in the united states, canada, and around the world. i'm kim brunhuber. this is "cnn newsroom." signs that russia is building up its forces near ukraine's border as one european leader prepares to push for a diplomatic solution. live in kyiv with the latest. plus now two years into the pandemic, one group is being overlooked when it comes to treatment. look at efforts to battle long-haul covid. and the queen of england

celebrates her platim jubilee, 70 years on the throne, with a surprise announcement. we're live in london with a closer look. u.s. officials now believe russia has assembled about 70% of the military force it needs to launch a full-scale invasion of ukraine. the latest satellite images show russian forces gathering strength in belarus. some are positioned less than 50 kilometers from ukraine's northern border. france's president heads to moscow on monday to pursue a diplomatic solution. emmanuel macron spoke saturday with nato's secretary-general and the british prime minister, who want the kremlin to understand that nato isn't divided about the russian threat. cnn's melissa bell is standing by live for us in kyiv. melissa, heading into that meeting with putin, the message

from france, uk, and nato is unity, right? >> reporter: unity and strength and preparedness to react should anything further happen, kim. but there is this deep belief on the part of the french president that there is still room for diplomacy, so moscow and then kyiv to meet with the leaders here in order to try and pursue those conversations and focus attentions back on those 94 tht normandy format talks, the latest on the minsk agreement, try and find a solution to the question of the what's happening in eastern ukraine. those talks will continue this week. what emmanuel macron hopes is by focusing the minds of everyone back into this format, back onto the possibility of discussions, he can take some of that heat out of the debate and that buildup that's been going around across the border. you're quite right, those intelligence assessments paint an alarming picture on the part of the united states with officials really looking at a number of scenarios of how

quickly vladimir putin, should he decide to invade could do so with the one idea being put forward that kyiv could fall within 48 hours of an invasion. also the possibility that what he is looking at potentially, although the understanding both from ukrainian assessment and american assessment, is perhaps he hasn't quite made up his mind yet. the idea is the buildup is such he could launch a multi-pronged attack, coming in partly also from this new front in belarus. the latest pictures show, according to the independent satellite image provider max star, that substantial buildup over the course of the last 24 hours just 50 kilometers from the border, not just personnel but military equipment. that just 50 kilometers even as belarus and russia prepare to launch on these joint military exercises. so a very ra left arming picture of what's happening at the borders of ukraine, at its various borders with western russia, belarus, and crimea.

but again, the hope on theart of the french president, b making the trip himself he's going to find some room for understanding and some possibility of defusing what's become a very tense situation, kim. >> yeah, we'll be following that for sure. melissa bell in kyiv, thank you so much. here in the u.s., the justice department has released new video from the january 6th attack on the capitol. we want to warn you, some of this material is violent and disturbing to watch. the first video shows an unidentified member of the mob yelling to the crowd, watch this. 20 minutes after this video was recorded, officers were dragged into the crowd and beaten, according to a cnn review of the video. in another clip we see rioters under a "trump 2020" flag trying to enter the capitol while fighting law enforcement officers. this video shows several attacks or riders used batons, hockey

sticks, crutches, eventually dragging one officer to the ground. you may remember the republican national committee on friday described the events surrounding the january 6th attack as, quote, legitimate political discourse. the rnc also formally censured republican lawmakers liz cheney and adam kinzinger for participating in the house committee investigation into the insurrection. now we're seeing more pushback against the rnc from republicans. on saturday, alaska congressman don young tweeting, i will reiterate what i said last year. i was appalled at the violence and destruction at the capitol on january 6th. what transpired was criminal, unamerican, and cannot be considered legitimate protest. competition is in full swing at the winter olympics in beijing. day two kicking off with a historic gold medal win for new zealand in women's snowboarding. here's a look at the medal count. know way leading with two golds. new zealand is among four

countries with one gold each. political tensions and the covid-19 pandemic continue to cast a shadow over this year's games. cnn's ivan watson is standing by in hong kong. amy scholes joining me here in atlanta. some history being made today on a windy day. >> new zealand has been competing in the winter games since 1952. they'd only captured three medals in their history. but now finally, they're taking home some gold thanks to zoi sadosky saddat. the 20-year-old trailed the american heading into the final run but put on a dazzling display, including a massive jump on her final trick to earn the historic win for her nation. zoi owns two of the four olympic medals in olympics history for new zealand. she won bronze in 2018. this is a picture of zoi breaking down in tears after realizing her lifelong dream of

olympic glory. >> to win new zealand's first winter olympic gold honestly means so much to me. i can't believe that i managed to do it. yeah, i'm just super proud to be kiwi. yeah, hope i made everyone at home proud. yeah, my data stopped working so i haven't really been on my phone. but yeah, i can feel the shock waves from new zealand. yeah it feels pretty special. >> tons of messages when she gets to that phone. julia moreno ended up taking home silver in that event. it was the first medal for the americans at the games after being shut out on day one for the second straight olympics. jamie anderson, looking for her third straight olympic title in that event, ended up finishing ninth, her worst finish in elite competition since 2005. u.s. skier kai owens hopes to

compete after injury. the 17-year-old was born in china but was abandoned in a town square. she was adopted at 16 months old by a colorado couple. they helped her become one of the best freestyle skiers in the world. kai spoke with coy wire. >> i kind of was left with a note with my birth date. obviously 2004. and that's all. being adopted from china, china is my heritage, it's where i was born. to be able to go back to china, it feels full circle. >> how have you embraced your chinese roots? >> it's taken a really long time, but my parents have done the most incredible job of teaching me and helping me realize that being adopted, it's an amazing thing. and i found a lot of gratitude in it. so that's how i've copied with it. >> the men's downhill is supposed to be going on as we speak, but high winds in the mountains postponed it for the day. they're going to try to run it

again tomorrow. >> all right, thanks so much, appreciate that. now we want to pivot to ivan. ivanolympics organizers, of course, want to keep politicians out of the games. but we did hear the ioc confirming again that they do plan on meeting with chinese tennis star pang shui. what do we know? >> ioc president thomas bach will be meeting with pang sha i would, but we may not anticipate hearing very much about this. take a listen to the spokesperson for the ioc. >> you'll appreciate that we're not going to release details to the media of that meeting but the meeting will take place. as the president eloquently said, we'd talk to her and decide what would and wouldn't be said.

>> pang sha i ui was a champion chinese professional tennis player who published this very emotional statement on her social media account on weibo accusing a former senior chinese government official of sexually assaulting her. and then she was largely censored from the chinese internet after that. and then re-emerged as there were calls from her former colleagues and competitors in women's professional tennis for more information about her. and she kind of denied that she'd actually written this statement. and there have been encounters, meetings, between her and the ioc where still images were released of that. there have been a lot of questions about how free she is to really communicate with the outside world. and this meeting is anticipated at some point to try to get some kind of update on her status.

but then again, we're hearing from the ioc that what will be released will come down to what she asks to be released. in another matter, having to do with the olympics, kim, the number of confirmed covid cases has dropped from i think more than 40 on friday, to saturday just 10 new cases. that's a positive sign. and the ioc is saying and top officials saying they anticipate those numbers to continue to go down and that they have not impeded in the games. one example, however, is this u.s. champion wbobsledder who ws supposed to carry the flag in the opening ceremony a she wasn't allowed to, elana meyers taylor, tested positive, had to go into isolation. she said she's tested negative, she'll be released, and she will in fact be able to compete. >> also in beijing, president xi

was taking more high-level meetings, a banquet as well. take us through who he saw and what came out of it. >> yeah, this was in the great hall of people in beijing. the chinese president and his wife greeting numerous heads of state, among them the pakistani prime minister, the presidents of turkmenistan, egypt, tajikistan, elaborate setting, elaborate centerpiece table at the banquet. you had ioc president thomas bach, u.n. secretary january antonio guterres, who had his own one-on-one meeting, thanking him for his hospitality, talking about cooperating on challenges like the covid pandemic, like climate change, calling for more vaccines for the african continent. and then raising the human rights issue which has been at the heart of a diplomatic boycott led by the u.s. and

countries like canada and australia, the uk. the u.n. secretary-general putting out a statement that included this line, quote, the secretary-general also expressed his expectation that the contacts between the office of the high commissioner for human rights and the chinese authorities will allow for a credible visit of the high commissioner to china, including xinjiang, which has been at the heart of the diplomatic dispute with countries like the u.s. accusing china of effectively committing genocide in xinjiang. china vehemently denying it. and the presence of a uighur, ethnic uighur athlete, lighting the olympic cauldron in the opening ceremony, perhaps a signal from china in response to all this criticism. >> absolutely. ivan watson in hong kong, thanks so much. many people still suffer with covid symptoms long after their infection ends.

i'll speak with someone who's trying to help them get better. much more on the standoff with moscow as russia's military edges closer to ukraine's borders.

♪ india is observing two days of national mourning following death of one of its most beloved singers. mapgeshkar was known as the nightingale of india, a play back singer to be used in movies like "life of pi" and "mulan." the singer died nearly a month ago after being diagnosed with covid-19. the prime minister modi wrote on twitter, i'm anguished beyond words. she leaves a void in our nation that cannot be filled. she was 92. two covid trends seem to be pointing in very different directions. data from johns hopkins university in the u.s. says the u.s. has reported over 900,000 covid-19 deaths.

the country has averaged over 2,000 deaths a day for the past two weeks. despite these relatively high numbers, eerts are hopeful we have the tools to fight whatever comes next and a semblance of normalcy isn't too far off. >> i do worry that we've gotten hardened to these numbers that are almost untnk about. 1,000, 2,000, 2,500 deaths a day. that is just stunning. i think sometimes these numbers do numb us to the impact. but i am optimistic. we have better tools than ever before. we have better information than ever before. more vaccines, more tests, more masks, more information about ventilation, better genomic surveillance, a better chance of catching the next variant when it comes. >> but in between those two trends, the skyrocketing toll and the hope that better is at hand, is a growing number of people often overlooked. they're the ones who continue to suffer from covid symptoms long after they recovered from e initial infection.

and as the number of long covid patients increases, health care providers are struggling to keep up. in the u.s. there's at least one long covid treatment clinic in almost every state, according to survivor corps, a long haul covid patient survivor group. the true number is those suffering is unclear. researchers estimate it's between 10% and 30% of those who have been infected. the 91 journal of medicine estimated at least 50 million people in the u.s. would have long haul covid before the pandemic ended. that was before record-breaking case loads, some of which are likely to produce long covid. people with the condition are reporting distinct symptoms which require treatments across multiple medical disciplines. these are just a handful of them. and all this is taking a toll on an already burdened health care system. diana bare rant is a covid-19 long hauler and founder of survivor corps and joins us now

from los angeles. thanks for being here with us. first, let's talk about the need. i mean, i'm one of millions who have had covid, now hoping that i won't have any further symptoms. you've described long covid as a ticking time bomb in your body, waiting to go off. but there are so many barriers to getting diagnosed if doctors don't have the tests or expertise in a condition that didn't exist two years ago. are we getting any better at even diagnosing it? or do people still meet with skepticism from the medical establishment? >> first of all, thank you so much for shining a light on this incredibly important issue. this is truly our shadow pandemic. and for as much as we're talking about waves and numbers going up and down, the number of people who are suffering from long covid, from the sequelae, from the long-term effects of even a milder asymptomatic covid infection, remain constant. and the number is enormous.

if you think about the fact that we are at almost 1 million deaths, it's hard to even wrap your head around that number. think about how many people have been infected. how many children. how many adults. and if you think about one-third of those suffering the long-term effects, you are looking at something that is going to be affecting us for generations. it is keeping people from going back to work. it is a tremendous, tremendous public health issue that is going to overwhelm our health system. >> so the good news, if i can jump in, the good news on that front is that there are now centers that specialize in the treatment of long covid, but the bad news is there just aren't enough of them. so talk to me about how bad the backlog is and what effect this is having on folks who are waiting for help. >> exactly. so look, it's great news and go to survivorcorps.com to find a

list of post-covid care centers in the united states. they're in 48 of 50 states. but it's not enough. because most of them, you need to have a positive diagnosis to even be admitted. most people who were -- who had covid in the beginning, in that first wave, never got positive diagnoses because the tests weren't available and they were often faulty. with omicron, with people doing home tests, no easy way to report your test, people are getting into the same situation, recreating the same problems. and creating a group of people who will have a tremendous amount of difficulty getting care. so instead of having post-covid care centers that we try to get everyone through, because right now it's over a year waiting list even if you do have a diagnosis. we need to get -- we need to have centers of excellence where we bring that knowledge to clinicians, to patients, to empower them. because there needs to be equity thought of at every step of the

way and make sure that we are including every single person left behind. >> yeah, and right now, much of the discussion in this country is sort of surrounding pivoting from making this -- dealing with covid as a pandemic to dealing with it as something that's endemic, something more like the flu, let's say. but if we dismantle all the protective resources, if we downgrade the disease, so to speak, are you afraid that many people, many more people, will end up with long covid? because there won't be any restrictions, people will drop their guard, covid will be sort of normalized with possible long-term consequences? >> absolutely. you hit the nail on the head. for all of the talk of omicron becoming more mild, first of all, the hospitalizations show you that that's not actually true. breakthrough cases are not actually breakthrough, they are not rare, they are post-vaccination infections.

and the vaccine is the most important thing you can do to protect yourself from getting long covid. yes, you might be healthy enough to not end up on a ventilator. but even a mild or asymptomatic case can end up in absolute physical devastation. we are talking about people in their 20s and 30s who are college athletes, marathon runners, who are now on permanent feeding tubes and in wheelchairs. this is what long covid means. >> before we go, your organization, your facebook page that you started initially, survivors corps, it's an amazing collection of resources to help those that are affected and connect them with resources, so on. on one hand it's a great example of citizen science, people taking their own health in their own hands. >> absolutely, in fact, i would say we have redefined what it means to be a citizen scientist,

and we have re-established it as citizen scientist collaboration. i started survivor corps with a mission of mobilizing an army of survivors to donate to science, donate their bodies, their experience, their plasma, their blood, participate in every trial and study for which you qualify. because inside of you, there are answers to this novel virus that will bring relief to so many. >> yeah, i guess the flip side to that is, it's a shame that something like that should have to exist, that people should have to take it into their own hands. we really should be getting much more support from the government. >> absolutely. >> we'll have to leave it there. diana behrendt, thank you for being with us. >> please visit www.survivorcorps.com, sign up with a news letter to get the latest news. >> we're going to post it up here on our screen.

ukraine's president warned it could be at risk if there's an invasion. emmanuel macron will spearhead the latest diplomatic efforts when he traveled to moscow on monday. nic robertson has more from moscow, but first sam kiley in eastern ukraine. >> reporter: this is a city of 1.5 million. at least three-quarters are native russian speakers. it's only 30 miles from the russian border. the end of the last month, president zelensky here said he sphered harkyiv could be high on the target list when it came to russian invasion, not only because it's russian-speaking, but it's close to the front line, it's close to the border, it's the center of the industrial heartland of ukraine. but these demonstrators behind me, they're dwindling now. they came out today in a show of unity with the slogans here being east and west.

that's east and west ukraine, united. the east of the country or some of the east of the country was illegally captured by force by russian-backed separatists, and indeed russian troops annexed the crimea due south, effectively, of the capital city. so they are deeply concerned that they're trying to demonstrate to fellow ukrainians that harkyiv is in no way going to be a rollover to any potential russian invasion. there have been people here from the far right and the gay community, normally people who are at loggerheads in this town, openly in a state of friction, but here they're trying to say i they're all coming together, particularly as russian speakers, to reject what they say are the russian threats and aggression. >> thanks to sam kiley. let's turn to moscow where the kremlin is complaining all the negative focus on ukraine is spoiling the beijing olympics. for that, here's nic robertson. >> reporter: the foreign ministry spokeswoman has described it as a very unsightly

picture. that is, she says the west putting all the attention and focus on what's happening in ukraine, putting pressure on russia, and all of that detracting while the olympics were going on in beijing. so more criticism coming from officials here in russia. meanwhile, president macron getting ready for his meeting on monday with president putin where the pair of them will talk about ways to de-escalate and bring about a reduction in current tensions. the french president speaking on saturday with both boris johnson, the british prime minister, and the nato secretary-general, yen stoltenberg. both of those leaders recommending and advising president macron of france to maintain the unity of nato, to maintain that strength of message when he's talking with president putin, that nato is all aligned. that's very much the same message president macron got in

his phone call a couple of days ago with president biden, the day before that with the prime minister of can dan, justin trudeau. why do they say this? in part they're saying it because part of president macron's agenda, not only to bring about some peace talks between the ukrainian authorities and the pro-russian separatists in the east of ukraine, and also to get president putin to de-escalate tensions, reduce the presence of troops around ukraine, but he also wants to sort of carve out a stronger foreign policy and defense voice for the european union within nato. and obviously concerns among some that that will break the picture of unity of nato that's being presented to president putin. but this, president macron's office saying not expecting huge breakthroughs on monday, but the kremlin have described president macron as a good interlocutor. nic robertson, cnn, moscow.

the latest calls for diplomacy haven't stopped russia's military buildup. new images show troops and aircraft in belarus. u.s. officials say russia has assembled 70% of the troops and weapons needed for a full-scale invasion of ukraine. meanwhile, as mentioned, the u.s. is sending more troops to europe. a u.s. aircraft carrier is already in the region, and its presence sends a clear message. cnn's fred pleitgen reports from aboard "uss harry s. truman." >> reporter: the u.s. and allies in a united show of force, facing aggression from russia. the "uss harry s. truman" is in europe refining cooperation with nato allies to make sure the alliance can operate more coherently, says naval flight officer jeanette lazaro. >> we integrate two different nato partners. we work to kind of smooth the communication processes. >> reporter: as russia continues

♪ it's a historic weekend for britain's queen elizabeth as she marks a major royal announcement, while celebrating her platinum jubilee. the 95-year-old monarch chose the landmark milestone to say it's her wish the duchess of cornwall be known as queen camilla when prince charles becomes king. the couple married in 2005, they announced she would be known as princess consort, despite having right to the title of queen. that was due to the sensitivity surrounding the title, which was once dell tinned for charles' first wife, diana. cnn royal correspondent max

foster joins us from buckingham palace in london. take us through what's behind in the announcement by the queen. >> reporter: well, prince charles has never made a secret of the fact that he wanted camilla to be queen when he becomes king. but as you say, very sensitive topic because camilla is seen as a player in the breakdown of that marriage with diana, and queen was a title that was destined for diana. charles could have waited until he becomes king to just make camilla queen. but it's interesting that they're doing it this way. this is really a sign that the queen is giving her blessing to that and her support, really, to that future monarchy. this is all at a time where she's taking stock of her 70 years as monarch. but still with no plans to retire. during her reign, queen elizabeth has celebrated three landmark jubilees. silver in 1977. golden in 2002.

and her diamond jubilee in 2012. this year, having already surpassed the record-breaking reign of queen victoria, elizabeth becomes the first british monarch to mark a platinum jubilee. that's an unprecedented seven decades of service. during her historic reign, she's appointed 14 prime ministers and met 12 u.s. presidents. >> i have been privileged to witness some of that history. >> reporter: she's been a beacon of continuity through an unprecedented period of change, not least the media revolution. her greatest achievement, perhaps, has been her ability to remain relevant and popular. approaching her 96th birthday, for almost everyone living she is the only british monarch they've ever known. with no plans to retire, a series of celebrations will take place throughout the year lminating in t four-day public holiday weekend in june.

when the public can join the jubilee-themed festivities, expect blockbuster pomp and pageantry, street parties and parades, a concert with some of the world's biggest stars slated to attend. >> there's going to be some surprises up their sleeve. really, the palace are aware just as much as everybody, as it's been a long time coming, no one's really been able to party for quite a long time. hopefully there's going to be a big party, covid will be behind us, and people can celebrate outdoors and indoors in the way they like. >> reporter: after one of the most tumultuous years in modern role history, the queen will be hoping to put the focus back on the future of the monarchy. the family have been engulfed by a series of rifts and scandals. but the institution still appears to project strength through its unwavering and revered figurehead. >> we do have to remember when she came to the throne in 1952,

it was really not a very enlightened time in terms of working women. a lot of people thought a won wasn't up to the job, despite the fact that queen victoria and all the queens before had been great queens on the throne. she proved them all wrong and has proved over and over again, the women can do the job of a constitutional monarch just as well as if not better than a machine man. >> reporter: for the first time this year, elizabeth will be without prince philip at a major royal celebration. the man who was by her side personally and professionally throughout her reign. prince charles will step in to play a major role, as will camilla, william, and kate. they are the future and will be front and center alongside the queen. perhaps we'll also be looking ahead to the next jubilee, when the queen surpasses france's louis xiv, to become the longest-serving reigning monarch in world history. the queen is certainly seen as one of the great britain

monarchs by historians, and her great ability to remain relevant, to continue steering through troubled waters, we've seen that this year. i think this decision to announce camilla as a future queen, a successor in a way to elizabeth, is really about her primary job, the queen, which is to leave the throne in a stronger position than which she received it, to hand it over, and to future-proof, really, the monarchy. the future of the monarchy is charles and camilla, and that's what the queen is using her jubilee message to say today. >> a legacy to have to live up to. max foster, thanks so much. we're following a powerful cyclone at this hour. we'll head to the cnn weather center for the latest after the break. with hepatitis c i felt i couldn't be atat my best for my family. in only 8 weeks with mavyret
