7:01 pm
they're say 5 people have been injured by multiple rocket strikes on a fuel depot in the city of levine. this comes to spite signals from moscow indicating a shift in focus to pick eastern don bass region. ah, hello, i am claire richards and thank you so much for joining us. on his 2nd day in poland, u. s. president joe biden has delivered a speech on the crisis in ukraine. in the speech biden's stress, the united states continued support for ukraine. he said the world must repair what he said would be a long fight. ahead and referring it to russian president vladimir putin bite and suggested that he could not remain in power. the u. s. president however stressed that the russian people were not the enemy. what the ab. oh, roden has the gall to say he's did not to fly. you grade, it's a lie,
7:02 pm
is just cynical, he knows that and it's also obscene presence. the landscape was democratically elected. he's jewish, his father's family was white out of nazi holocaust and protocol. as there are definitely like all our autocrat beforehand to believe that might will make right android. now in the studio by a reporter william croft. i will and you've been with me here watching the entirety of biden's speech in warsaw. one which is clearly framed as a battle between democracies and autocracy. i just want to start by asking you what the major impressions of the speech where for you, for me, the major impression was the very last line of a speech where he said, for god's sake, this man cannot remain in power that marks of what i can only see as a significant shift in policy to advocate for the removal vladimir putin. how that happens is completely brought in and was not obviously specified. but it is not
7:03 pm
common for a sitting heads of stay to advocate for the removal of power, even of, of, of horrendous people. it's kind of a thing you don't do. even i remember in 2003, when the u. s. as in the verge of invading iraq, there was all, all kinds of controversy when there were some suggestions. speculation that ari fleischer, the boot, george w bush, his press secretary, the time said, well, one bullet can, can remove, you know, can solve this problem loosely paraphrasing. and he was massively pushed back for suggesting to assassinate saddam hussein. so this is just not something that, that you f presidents tend to do to advocate for the removal of, of power, of leaders of power. we don't know what else he really meant by that. so i don't want to harp on it too long, but is a very notable escalation that i think i can't imagine putin not responding to in kind. and we'll just have to see how that plays plays out. there were so much else here in that speech, really, joe biden, trying to ease people's worries with a lot of references from pope john paul, the 2nd polish pope, a. i'm in
7:04 pm
a deeply catholic country, a be not afraid, and really trying a rallying cry to democracies as you know, since the end of the cold war, not really knowing what these, what democracy stand for, what they're doing in the world. this idea of a friend from francis fukuyama that the, the history is over, there's nothing more left to do throughout the course, each of unity that we've just heard that. i mean, he also said, we stand with you. what do you think the ukrainians in the audience listening to this speech are going to make out of that? i mean, the u. s. and joe biden went through a long list of things that the u. s. and the european union have done to support ukraine militarily. ship in a terms of humanitarian aid, in terms of financial relief, economic, a sort of aspects. but if we've been hearing for weeks now, zalinski and many of his officials talking about how is just not enough. they want so much more direct a intervention both militarily and in terms of, of aid of all kinds. i think soleski even use the word disappointed at one at one
7:05 pm
point, thankful for what has been done but saying it's not enough. so it's certainly a for ukrainians, a major help, but obviously with russia bombing them every day it's, it's never going to be enough. and one of the major request from ukraine and president valencia has, of course, been for a no fly zone over ukraine. something that washington and berlin have been have rejected a hand. can you tell us what's behind? i'm broad and broadly, the european union nato. there have been a few individual countries such as lithuania, i believe, i think pull it also come out in favor of of so hold close in ears basis. the very difficult thing to do, but it requires ukraine's a huge country. first of all require a massive amount of air power. that would even strain u. s. resources. it would require going after russian assets, both in ukraine and in russia itself. and the u. s. only has experience in enforcing no fly zones where it doesn't really face opposition, such as any rock such as over the former former yugoslavia where there's no real air force to speak of russia for all of its missteps and all of its military
7:06 pm
weaknesses. surprise, weaknesses still is a massive military power and it would put the 2 sides into direct confrontation. it's not an easy solution, like some people might suggest it is a reporter william. good question. i thank you so much for coming into the studio with that analysis. officials in the western ukrainian city of levine say russian air strikes have hit a fuel storage facility, which is now burning after reports of 3 powerful explosions. levine is located around 70 kilometers from the polish border and have been seen as something of a safe haven for those who are fleeing the russian invasion of the eastern, northern and southern parts of ukraine. after the black, you can see black smoke rising above the city. 5 people are reported injured or correspondent, i'm in s as in levine and he has sent us this update. about $415.00 local time the areas are started to go off. we got announcement here where i'm staying,
7:07 pm
that we had to go down to the bomb shelter. a lot of people have been doing that just out of habit, recently. indeed, because bombs have not fallen. missiles attacks have not occurred when the rates are and did go off. a lot of people are still outside. but this time there was, it was what sounded like thunder. apparently, 3 strikes were heard. we're hearing reports that it's on a fuel beef just outside the city. i've seen video circulating on telegram of large smoke cloud over the city and this is very unusual here in levine. it's very far west ukraine, close to the border with poland, and it's been relatively safe, but over the past couple of weeks to air strikes and then today a 3rd air strike have occurred which have started to worry people here. and i think people leave will in the next few days, be taking the air raid sirens
7:08 pm
a lot more seriously. i mean, as if reporting for us, they are from levy. so ukraine has now seen a month of fighting that has left thousands dead and forth more than $10000000.00 people to flee their homes. now moscow has said it's shifting its focus to ukraine's eastern at dawn bass region. while the kremlin claims it has largely successfully completed the 1st phase of what it calls its military operation, analysts say it could be a sign. russian president vladimir putin is trying to save face after failing to subdue ukraine or capture its capital, keith. but as moscow changes focus the human suffering from its invasion shows no sign of abating signs of spring greeted. keep on such a day as ukraine shakes off his winter an end to the new phase of war. but oh, that may be a changing strategy after russian defeats oh,
7:09 pm
but there's little rest bite for those on the front lines of battle. ah, many of visibly exhausted, but steadfast image determination to stay. hooking through poosey jame. as you can see, he sais on our children and grandchildren a dying forget wrote to him, i'm 62. i can't leave this place will one. i'll stay here. if need be, i will die here live, but i will not give them a crane. who ukrainian forces have recaptured areas on the outskirts of the capital keep still lives continue to be destroyed. oh, i thought you well, with up is hospital in hawk eve. the

the ukranian city? devastated by russian attacks across that he was working on a humanitarian operation together with turkey and greece. and he would soon call russian president vladimir putin to work out the details while crowds unfurled a giant's ukrainian flag and shouted go home at a rally in the church, after russian forces entered the city and the hospital in the town, russian forces responded by firing into the air and point stone grenades to disperse the crowd. more than 130 refugees from ukraine have arrived in germany from over. hundreds of thousands of ukrainians have fled to the small former soviet republic. germany plans to airlift 2500 refugees out of moldova to help him deal with the new arrivals. and many of those who flee ukraine often arrived traumatized in neighboring countries. the war itself, the sudden need to leave everything behind and the journey out,
