the scenes with the biden administration and volodymyr zelenskyy and the ukrainians to provide what a lot of people have called a creative solution to this. because you look at those scenes unfolding like what happened at the hospital yesterday, it's just devastating. you can't believe that and 2022 it's happening on our watch. >> last night congress approved $13 million. >> carley: "fox & friends" starts right now. ♪ [explosion] >> the war on ukraine, day 15. [shouting] >> russian airstrikes demolish ago maternity hospital leaving children buried under the rubble. >> united against this terror. >> will. >> these are war crimes. there is no other way of stating it. >> putin could unleash chemical

3:02 am
where officials say three people were killed yesterday in that russian strike on a maternity hospital along with at least 17 others injured. now, ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy whereas very clear calling this attack a war crime. as you can see from this video there is indeed evidence that a war crime was committed as mothers and children were hit and targeted in this hospital. the deputy mayor of mariupol detailed other disturbing actions by the russians in the city since this invasion began. saying more than 1100 people have been killed with dozens buried in mass graves. zelenskyy had this to say. >> they blocked our cities, the biggest cities in ukraine and they have blocked and because they don't want our people to get food, water. >> this comes as the ukrainians say russian forces have disconnected the chernobyl nuclear plant in the power grid in country. generators are reportedly turned
3:03 am
on. one ukrainian member of parliament called this a very dangerous situation. adding if russia will not see fire they expect radiation leaks. power operator added that wind could actually carry radioactive substances to other parts of europe. the international atomic energy agency confirmed that chernobyl is no longer transmitting data but they see no critical impact on safety at this point. as the russians continue to suffer significant battlefield losses the white house is warning this week that russia could stage a false flag attack that involves chemical or biological weapons as a pretext for further military action. now, vice president kamala harris is holding high level talks today in poland but, remember, the ukrainians are doubling down on two requests. they need more weapons and they also want a no-fly zone over their country. back to you. >> brian: well, first off, trey, what could you tell us? is it true towns bore zelle and irpin have fallen into russian hands? >> right now very active fronts
3:04 am
in these towns just northwest of the capital of kyiv. we were there this weekend you could see the shelling taking place as these civilians were trying to get out of harm's way. the russians have been moving in these towns that border the ukrainian capital there are credible reports of the russians actually going into civilian homes and staging out of those homes while they have tanks waiting on the streets outside. so the front continues to move but the concern is if they build a solid base just outside the city limits it's going to give them and even better opportunity to hit this city from both the ground and the air and the mayor here says there are still 2 million civilians waiting and caught in the crossfire. >> ainsley: trey, what about the maternity hospital. it's horrific you have to be a tyrant if you will target a hospital where mothers are in labor and delivering their babies. do we know, was he targeting that exact hospital or do we think that was a mishap, an accident? >> i don't think there is any question this was a targeted
3:05 am
attack by russian forces. the russian also say it's an accident or they are not responsible but the images speak for themselves. the crater just outside of the ground in the hospital a massive bomb dropped in this area. and you see the devastation that one image that's on the cover of some papers across america today of a pregnant woman being carried away from a maternity hospital on a stretcher with this just immense level of destruction behind her. the russian forces are targeting civilian areas on purpose. every piece of evidence we have about this strike indicates this was a targeted attack. and the russians knew exactly what they were doing. >> pete: the russians have attempted to say they were being shot at from that hospital. that's part of their spin on it it's incredible. trey. i have got to go back to the capital real quick. any ways in and out at this point with the encirclement. county enforcement still get there? can people still get out of kyiv? >> yes they can the southern part of this city is not blocked by russian portions.
3:06 am
there are civilians trying to make their way out and head west to cities like lviv where we have a number of crews there you have seen the images of these refugees trying to go from there and poland and other neighboring countries. the critical part is how much time these people have. because they are simply running out of time. we heard it last night. all through the night these air raid sirens going off this city was being targeted and ukrainian air defense systems are active this can only go on so long. the russians aren't going to wait outside of the city forever. and every indication is they will try to encircle this city and ultimately move. in and, again, those civilians who can't make it out many of them are living underground trying to stay in bomb shelters and those who can't fight are getting ready for a fierce battle. >> brian: is there any indication that the russians have the stomach for urban warfare? have they shown a willingness to get out of their armor and walk the street and start doing the things necessary. >> they sent in a number of advanced forces, reconnaissance troops to see how much
3:07 am
resistance they were going to face in the early days of this invasion and they got hit very hard. we saw the battlefield that was left over, cars riddled with bullets. the ukrainians coming out of different side streets and hitting these forces very hard. it's going to be very difficult for these russian tanks and artillery units if they do move forward into the city. we have seen nearly every block. not only do they have checkpoints set up but positions dug in. and they have anti-tank missiles and other weapons prepared to hit these forces when they come into the city. so they are going to get a hit from the ground and the air. there will certainly be a hard line of defense in a number of locations around this ukrainian capital. but the russian also try their hardest and they have been doing so. i think it's significant to look at the battlefield losses so far for the russians. thousands of soldiers according to u.s. estimates. it's part of the reason we are seeing scorched earth campaign by president putin being ordered in cities like mariupol or targeting hospitals and innocent civilian residential areas because they are losing in many
3:08 am
areas they are taking so much resistance that this is part of the russian playbook. hit them hard, kill a lot of civil yans and try to make the ukrainians give up. so far there is no indication they dual so. >> ainsley: trey, this wagner group. we have read a lot about it. they are a group of men that apparently are housed in africa. but they speak to vladimir putin, have talked to his people, 99 times over the last 8 months there has been three assassination attempts on zelenskyy's life and some of the leaders in the town of kyiv or in the capital city. and now there is word that they are trying to come back in. and attack zelenskyy and some of the other leaders, including the mayor of kyiv and his boxing brother. any word on the latest with the wagner group? >> yeah, look, a major concern for ukrainian officials is these militia type fighters. it's not just the wagner group but reports of chechen fighters and syrian fighters being recruited by the russians to come in and fight in a more
3:09 am
urban environment. the current russian force forces are not really trained for warfare at all. when you think about the number of conflicts russia has fought, if they have special units that come into a city, they will have experience in training and fighting this type of environment. but most of the russian army does not have that type of experience. and you are already seeing it from these videos from outside of the city. they are getting hit by the ukrainian forces in very traditional ways. they hit the beginning of the convoy and end of the convoy and then they hit them from the sides. we have seen these videos of russian soldiers getting out of their tanks and running around with no direction. these are not men who are trained to fight in these types of environments. it is part of the reason that we see the russians try to recruit these other forces to come and fight on behalf russia inside of ukraine. >> pete: with every day the fortifications around kyiv get stronger as they gather around the capital. trey yingst thank you so much. >> ainsley: thanks, trey. many of those fighters when they're arrested or they are caught, they are saying we are
3:10 am
from russia. we were told that this was going to be peace keeping. we were told we were on a training mission. we didn't even know what our mission was. you hear all these different stories. if they are sent into another country without having a mission, will they be successful? >> pete: they haven't been a lot of them thought they were on a training mission which is why vladimir putin is going to the next phase of leveling sits and brings in experienced fighters like chechens. reports of 60,000 chechens they may bring to lay siege to kyiv. vladimir putin is doubling down as ukrainian people are fighting back. >> brian: right. that's why they are so desperate to get things like fighter jet even if they are from the 1980s. it doesn't look like like we have the stomach to give it to them. talk about people with great bravery this former tv journalist from the ukraine staying behind to tell the story of what is happening just outside the city capital. sir hay pophov is his name. he joined trace gallagher about
3:11 am
two hours ago to talk about what it is like on the ground. watch. >> russian airstrike became more frequent last day. every day we have something. last night russian bombs dropped airplane. dropped right here. where old woman live. actually she somehow survived. >> ainsley: old woman and she somehow survived. >> pete: the terror really. i received income rocket attacks before. as a soldier prepared for that in a war zone, it rattles you whether you have been there gore a day or a year. for civilians to endure this night after night after night and day after day after day that's the psychological effect that vladimir putin wants to have. we will bomb you into submission until awful you are gone. >> brian: right. that's his only strategy but they're not quitting. meanwhile, 11 minutes now after
3:12 am
the hour. it's vladimir putin's fault, inflation, high gas prices, the fact that we're not producing as much oil and gas is vladimir putin's fault. that seems to be the theme that's coming out of the biden administration. especially 48 hours ago when they decided within 45 days to stop taking in russian oil. we would take in 650,000 barrels of oil a day we are going to stop that within 45 days. it turns out that's why gas prices are going up. does anyone really buying that? >> ainsley: we are on day 15 of russia invading ukraine. gas privacies have been going up since the moment joe biden was elected president. we are all feeling the squeeze. they used to say it was because of the supply chain or because of inflation or it was because of the pandemic. now they are changing their tune and they are pushing #putin price hike. >> pete: here is a tweet from the white house communications director kate bedingfield as they're trying to brand it as
3:13 am
ainsley pointed out. for months putin has been saber ratling and months gas prices are have been going up 75 cents since he began his military build up. that's the marker in the sand now, the military buildup. this is the #putin price hike in action and potus is going to use every tool at his disposal except the most important ones to shield americans from pain at the pump. i ad-libbed there. it's actually disgusting at this moment to be trying to create a #and build a new narrative when you created a problem that now is falling on all of us and then you shift the blame. prices have gone up because of the conflict. look at the trend line the day he was inaugurated until now. the energy industry knows they are trying to crush them as a result they have no incentive to invest further. and they are trying to blame it on vladimir putin and hoping the rest of the country somehow buys it. >> ainsley: people are saying open up the keystone pipeline it
3:14 am
could be opened up in the next year. they're saying the white house no plans to restart construction. if they hadn't of stopped it would have been open by now but it's been a year since he stopped it he said no plans to restart it plan to get oil from iran where they have said death to america. wipe israel off the face of the earth or off the map or venezuela where you have socialist dictator. we are not going to get oil now from putin but maybe from this other socialist dictator in another country in venezuela. that doesn't sound like a good solution. >> brian: also so, here is the exchange again, peter doocy asked jen psaki any thought about revisiting the keystone pipeline, which by the way, was produced whenever it is finished 750,000 minimum barrels of oil a day would go right from canada. >> ainsley: more than we got from russia. >> brian: let's listen. >> pete: why did you guys to decide to rebrand the rise in gas prices as the #putin price
3:15 am
hike. >> i mean, if you want to use that on fox, i welcome that. >> i think it will get a lot of air time because we have heard the president warn for months that gas prices were rising because of the supply chain and because of post pandemic demand. full guy knew for months putin price hike why are we hearing it now. >> if we go back to six months ago, i don't think anybody was predicting we would be exactly where we are as it relates to russia and ukraine. as you know that events in the world, including the invasion by russia of a foreign country, does prompt instability and volatility in the global oil market. hence, you have putin pump gas price pump. >> pete: thee botched the hashtag at the end. i don't think anybody could have seen this coming at all. they're totally riding the current events and blaming it on the other guy as can you so easily point out exactly where the things they have done and
3:16 am
trying to say now there are all these oil leases out there and it's the gas company or oil companies, they are the reason for this. they don't even know as we were talking about before the show, brian, we don't even know if there is gas or oil in some of these leases. the bureaucracy, the years of planning that go into going after the oil in those place places and if you believe that this administration is at war with fossil fuels, what's your incentive to invest and that's what the oil company also say. >> alaska and north dakota were told pump less. will keystone pipeline. also what i find insidious that is not brought up enough is there is a discouragement at the highest level for these financial institutions not to finance oil and gas exploration and drilling. janet yellen said it at the g-7 she warned these international organizations not to address fossil fuels. those stickers by the way. >> ainsley: see them everywhere. >> pete: if you have been to a gas station in the last year not in the last two weeks.
3:17 am
you will find one of those on a pump. if it's not on it it's been scratched off. one gas station owner down in alabama that said i take off six a day off of pumps. people know where it came from. this started long before vladimir putin. they want us to forget that. >> ainsley: the gas prices, what was it today it's 4:32. that's the average. in california at the costco in l.a., gas price for regular unleaded 1 gallon is $8. people are posting those pictures of i did this with joe biden's face. they are waiting in long lines. they are not getting the full service anymore because people can't afford it it's just -- and you hear these soundbites from people especially ones in california to identify do this. it's cutting my paycheck but i have to get to work. to identify drive. so americans don't have a choice. >> pete: cynical lifeline when you go to war with the fossil fuel industry from the beginning of your administration and then we don't have the supply and reliant elsewhere. it's beyond cynical to now say
3:18 am
oh it's just vladimir putin, not our fault. >> brian: when you basically have a montage who is going to play later of joe biden talking about his goal to kill fossil fuel, these are his words running for the presidency, which he got from his basement. meanwhile, 17 minutes after the hour. still ahead on this show, let's put this all in perspective, henry kissinger called it, how the former secretary of state predicted russia's invasion of ukraine in an article 8 years ago. >> ainsley: and will cain is going to join us live. he is in par marks ohio, which is one of the largest ukrainian communities here in the united states. hey, will. >> will: hey, ainsley that's right. south side diner parma, ohio. one of the largest ukrainian populations in ohio has one of the five largest ukrainian populations in the united states. that gives us a very interesting perspective this morning as we have breakfast with friends. i asked them about gas prices. ask them about the war between russia and ukraine when we come back on "fox & friends." ♪ ♪

difference in covid case rates. in a newsletter the "times" comparing case rates in democratic and republican areas sailing democrats are more likely to adhere to restrictions writing, quote: these factors seen as if they should have caused large differences in case rates. they have not. and that they haven't offered some clarity about the relative effectiveness of different covid interventions. now you tell us. all right. february's inflation report is expected to reflect another 40 year high. but the-thru true number may be even higher since it does not even display the oil and gas spike of the past week. today's report is expected to show that consumer inflation left almost 8% last month compared with the same time last year. it will be the biggest increase since january of 1982. we will break down the report live during the 8:00 a.m. hour. and syracuse guard buddy is suspended for a punch he through in a win against florida state.

3:26 am
let's go right to the beginning where ukraine says i have an idea i would like to be independent of the soviet union because they just became communist. they thought there was an opportunity to duck out. and there you see them technically fighting for freedom. >> pete: post world war bowl 1918 to 1921 fighting for independence because the soviets -- >> brian: bring back going back to the 1700s when we were once once again which vladimir putin still brings up which brings us to 1922 when the soviets decide to take it back it looks like this was all that was left of ukraine after the soviet union puts communism on this country. >> pete: they took over two thirds of the country. lennon had his eyes on this. time period as the first failed war of independence for ukraine. so this is the beginnings of a sense of nation hood even though russia still laid claim to it.
3:27 am
steve. >> brian: stalin was brutal to the ukrainians, hitler was descending on russia we know about their slash and burned tactics, scorched everett. as the russians excuse me the soviets backed up ukraine was in the line of fire with the nazis, they would lose 8 million ukrainians in fighting back hitler. >> pete: and lose 1.5 million jews. we know about the racial policies of nazis of extermination. a lot of ukrainians also took nature execution of jews as well on behest of the nazis. many of which were never held accountable. you have the residue of that the sins created in world war ii. >> brian: most of the jewish community in these days look at it in the odesa area which could be attacked any moment. this is an odd time with khrushchev.known for cuban miss.
3:28 am
in the 1950s he surprised by giving them crimea. >> pete: stalin had just died and effectively he said to try to ease relations with the ukrainian republic, which is part of the soviet union we said we will transfer crimea over to you because we believe we will always be the uss are so it's still ours but it's yours for administration purposes. later on that would become quite relevant. >> brian: also if you talk to russians or soviets back then they never were comfortable with that wife did you give up this rich area but now both share a naval station there until 2001. >> pete: very important one on the black sea. 1991 the soviet union dissolves, ukraine declares independence there is a lot of hope at that moment that ukraine will stand as independent country. almost immediately they are fighting russian influence inside their own borders. >> brian: they immediately wanted to the transition to a market economy a cappistic country do. that with a series of leaders. so one i believe his name is
3:29 am
kutcha he ends up taking over for about 10 years. as they continue to push west, in comes vladimir putin and poison. >> pete: poison, that was in 2014. victorian covic. part of the orange it. russia denies it. he wanted. this is a key point comes into play. pro-nato expansion that becomes a key part of ukrainian politics starting in the 1990s, 2,000s, 2010. do they join nato or not. putin pushes russian stooges they get pushed out and ukrainian independence waffles back and forth. >> brian: as they rise up and remember john mccain in that reasoning. we cut to it a few times on "fox & friends." as they rise up and put their own leader in place and have legitimate elections vladimir putin is not happy. so in which turn he decided to take some action against ukraine by taking the donbas region with russian separatists and taking back crimea.
3:30 am
>> pete: that's right. from his point of view, very little consequences internationally from the americans for doing so. and as a result, could have been a predicate and staging area for what we are now seeing. >> brian: keep in mind he takes georgia, gets some sanctions able to keep those two provinces moves in 2014. takes portions of the ukraine. really no problem. so then he says to himself why not just invade and take the whole thing. >> pete: you look at this whole timeline, brian, what vladimir putin clearly under estimated was the sense of independence that ukrainians have today away from russia and toward the west. he thought especially in the russian speaking areas where he -- his military is right now they would be welcomed and greeted. instead they have been opposed at every single inch. he clearly doesn't understand the history and fight for independence ukrainians have had. >> brian: just because us speak russia in ukraine doesn't mean they want to be part of russia. they want to be part of the european union. they want to be part of nato

3:53 am
>> brian: welcome back the national gas price average is hitting new records daily for remember when then candidate joe biden pushed this message in 2019. >> have to set sort of guide rails down now. one of which doing away with any fossil fuels number one. number two, holding liable for what they have done.
3:54 am
particularly in those cases where your under served neighborhood. when they don't, put them in jail. >> brian: exactly jail people that are running gas and oil companies. yet, no mention that his own son hunter biden helped run the ukrainian natural gas giant remember. [buzzer] that? charles payne does. he reacts. first off, the president can't deny that he was against fossil fuels now he is. >> it's really mind boggling to watch this realtime. president biden campaigned on destroying the oil company. he bragged about it and the market reacted. the day after he was elected oil prices went up and never looked back. $36 a barrel, now 1.26 this week. he should take a bow. that's what his goal was. the other part of it was to make it necessarily expensive and painful because, remember, when president obama then candidate obama said it was his plan to necessarily make it more expensive and elected that people would hurt so badly they
3:55 am
would look for the alternative. how many times this week have you heard someone from the administration talk about well why don't you just get an electric vehicle as a solution. >> brian: on average $60,000. >> if you can't get to your job at walmart, go get yourself an electric vehicle. forget where you charge it up. forget how you pay for it just go ahead because that's the ultimate goal. they don't care. >> this is the most despicable part about this when thing. they do not care. in fact, it was part of the plan to inflict pain on the american public. >> brian: what is he trying to say, too. it's vladimir putin's fault because he started ramping up this war back in may and then when he finally didded invasion, the gas went up 75 cents. >> starting ramping up the war back in may maybe sent some migs from poland to ukraine back in may. maybe we could have sent the whole lot of javelins back in may. maybe we could have aended this war back in may. listen, here's the problem. when gasoline price goes up,
3:56 am
president biden's poll numbers go down. this is a convenient excuse, a convenient villain between putin and those evil oil companies and how dare they make profits. nuts. senator markey tweeting and complaining about american companies making profits instead we should buy oil from venezuela, iran and saudi arabia. go figure. >> brian: people say that iran is already figured into the price of them getting back online and venezuela has already peaked. they cannot pump any more oil they are so backwards. >> they need so much work on their field capacity. that's what happens when you kick out all the folks who know how to fix this stuff. we are in a bind. >> brian: there is the vice president of the united states she is now in poland about to do a joint press conference here with the president of poland. listen. >> united states of america. distinguished ladies and
3:57 am
gentlemen, this is very important moment in our relations but first and foremost under these circumstances which we're facing right now in europe behind our eastern border in ukraine with us the russian troops aggression murdering innocent people and civilians, bombing maternity hospitals from which under dramatic circumstances wounded women right before alicia being carried out. none of us has ever expected that we would be able to see such things in the 21st century especially it is a great satisfaction to all of us here in poland that madam vice president of the united states of america vice president kamala harris is here with us in warsaw in our country.
3:58 am

3:59 am
had a meeting just a couple of minutes ago. we had a private meeting [inaudible] delegation atlantic important topics and i highlight this very forcefully how important it is and i thank for the president of the united states. i thank madam vice president and. and i thank the u.s. congress. i thanked for this necessity and actually the imposition of effective sanctions the russian federation that the united states [inaudible] these sanctions are working. above all, thank you, also for all the support which has been provided to the ukraine defending itself. thank you for the humanitarian assistance which is being supplied there. and madam vice president, i
4:00 am
would like to thank all the organizations ngos that are being involved in providing assistance. military assistance. also providing medical aid. they are providing equipment for children, for wounded. for. my wife is involved in this as well and i know in this respect she is in will with the institutions from the united states. she is it in contact with the first lady of the united states jill biden, very happy that the polish american is developing. i'm pleased it serve to provide common aid to ukraine and common aid to all those suffering who all those who need this establishes from us and assured madam vice president, with the situation that we are facing. i said that today for a number of days actually we have been receiving refugees from ukraine in poland.
4:01 am
this number is close to 1.5 million persons have come to us and addressing [inaudible] i was proud to tell madam vice president all those people have not been sent to camps. refugee camps. they have been accepted and received by polish families and polish homes. polish hotels and polish it hotels. private people. they have been received by ordinary polish people who feel in their hearts they should extend a helping hand to the people in need. i thank you so much to my fellow polish people. this is a reason for us to be proud and very much grateful for that at the same time, i ask madam vice president for support. huge refugee crisis is poland and complicated situation for
4:02 am
poland for the polish authority in the era of the crisis growing fuel prices are growing generally. the prices are growing. that is why we do need this support and going to be hugely grateful for any form of support because we have to survive this difficult time. and we have to do that by helping our neighbors because that is extremely important right now. however, security issues. the presence of madam vice president here in poland is yet another demonstration of u.s. -- of u.s. presence in poland next to the u.s. troops that we have here coming up next to u.s. defensive systems that are protecting our land. we also have with us here today the political representation, the top level political representation of the united states led by madam vice president and this is a very
4:03 am
clear political message where most important things are happening today. on the global stage in europe. we have to rescue ukraine. all of us are acutely aware ever that all hands should be on board. ukraine needs to be helped. and we have to stay united in that respect. we need to stand together in this respect. within the north atlantic alliance keeping solidarity. speaking absolutely with one voice just as we have to stand together in the european union and in all the other international communities. we have to impose more sanctions on russia. we cannot accept [inaudible] genocide because i don't think that anyone is in doubt if hospitals are bombed if hospitals are bombed with pregnant people. where bombs are launched into residential houses military installations then in this is an
4:04 am
act of barbarity. we have to present a very tough task as representatives of the free world. and poland stands here with the united states of america just like i have no doubt about that our allies stand with ukraine and all the honest authorities and democratic states. and at the end of our conversation, i mentioned the fact that we want to boost our security also here in poland. also thanks to the purchase of american equipment for our forces. they're already ongoing programs such programs. the program of the purchase of f-35s. purchase of abraham tanks for poland. i asked madam vice president that those programs should be
4:05 am
accelerated we want to provide the state of the art equipment armed forces as soon as possible. if there is such a need, i think everybody can see that would not make a comment on this situation we are able to witness the dramatic scenes unfolding in ukraine every day in the media you can see those horrific horrifying scenes. at the same time, we are able to witness huge and incredible determination of the american people. and we ukrainian people are going to support them all our strength. but, at the same time, providing the security of our country. it is crucial importance once again thank you very much madam vice president for coming to warsaw. thank you for this demonstration that we stand together and huge freedom of security thank you. i would like to give the floor to madam vice president of the united states of america. madam kamala harris.
4:06 am
>> president and for the warm welcome under unfortunate circumstances given what is happening in ukraine, our friend. but i thank you for the warm welcome and for the very constructive and productive conversations we had today as part of our ongoing dialogue and friendship that spans generations. i would like to also speak directly to the polish people. i have shared with your president that under his leadership and your leadership, has been extraordinary. the world has been watching poland, mr. president, your leadership and the leadership of the people of your country. and we have witnessed extraordinary acts of generosity and kindness. we have seen through images on the television looking at images of ordinary people doing extraordinary things in support of the dignity and the well-being of perfect strangers.
4:07 am
so i first and foremost want to express the thanks for the people of the united states, to you, mr. president, on behalf of our president, joe biden. and to the people of poland. for what you are doing every day. it really represents the best of who we are. we are here and i am here in poland today as part of an enduring longstanding friendship and commitment between the united states and poland based on shared values and priorities. i am here standing here on the northern flank on the eastern flank, talking about what we have in terms of the eastern flank and our nato allies and what is at stake at this very moment. what is at stake this very moment are some of the guiding principles around the nato alliance and in particular, the issue and the importance of
4:08 am
defending sovereignty and territorial integrity in this case ukraine. as president duda has described, we have been witnessing for weeks and certainly just in the last 24 hours, a atrocities of unimaginable proportion. a maternity hospital, a children's hospital, where we have witnessed pregnant women who were there for care, for one reason being taken out because they required care because of an act of violence, unprovoked, unjustified. i am here in poland as an expression of the enduring and important relationship between the united states and poland that again has been longstanding but in particular on the issue of ukraine is unified and is
4:09 am
clear. we will do everything together in partnership, in solidarity, to support what is necessity very moment in terms of the humanitarian and security needs of the ukraine and the ukrainian people. today we discussed mr. president many issues that relate to our special bond also because i will say as a point of personal privilege we have a substantial polish american community. in my hometown of los angeles but throughout the united states, who understands the relationship that we have on many levels including the diplomatic but also cultural relationships that span generations. and so through all of that and in the spirit of those relationships, and our shared commitments, our shared commitment to the importance of international norms and rules, you and i discussed today many important topics, in particular as it relates to the eastern
4:10 am
flank. and we talked specifically about what we care deeply about in terms of our commitment, the united states' commitment to article 5. i have said it many times, i will say it again. the united states commitment for article 5 is ironclad. the united states is prepared to defend every inch of nato territory. the united states takes seriously that an attack against one is an attack against all. we are here today to restate that commitment but also to do what we must do to reinforce our support of poland. and our allies through the eu and nato alliance. in particular, as it relates to troop deployment. we have recently deployed an additional 4700 american troops
4:11 am
to poland. that's on top of the years of rotation of about 5,000 american troops in poland. we are pleased to have announced this week that we have directed two patriot defense missile systems to poland and today i can announced that we have delivered those patriot systems to poland. we do this as a reminder and as a demonstration of our commitment to the security of our allies and our commitment in terrific to poland at this moment in time. as it relates to the people of ukraine, they have suffered eminencely. when we talk about humanitarian aid, it is because yes the assistance is necessary but what compels us also is the moral outrage that all civilized nations feel when we look at
4:12 am
what is happening to innocent men, women, children, grandmothers, grandfathers who are fleeing everything they have known. our outrage which compels not only our security assistance but our humanitarian assistance is rooted in the fact that also we support the people of ukraine who have shown extraordinary courage and skill and their willingness and, yes, ability to fight against putin's war and russia's adepression. so today we are also announcing in pursuit of what must happen, which is to provide humanitarian assistance that we will give another $50 million, the united states will, through the u.n.'s
4:13 am
world food program, to assist with humanitarian aid. the president and i also talked about the fact that as he mentioned, poland has taken in just a very short period of time in excess 1.5 million refugees in from ukraine. and this has put an extraordinary burden on poland and the people of poland. and so we will continue with the support that we can give you, mr. president. in terms of the work that you and the people of poland have been doing to bear this burden but in a way that really has been with such grace. ands such generosity. we also are pleased to have shared with the president what our united states congress has done, clean-up is there is a commitment now of $13.6 billion in human -- humanitarian and security assistance that will be
4:14 am
then distributed and shared with ukraine and the people of this region and europe. all again understanding that this moment in time requires both a humanitarian response as well as security assistance. and today i am also pleased to say that we are in ongoing discussions with poland and our allies about the effectiveness of sanctions thus far in going forward. as we have announced in the united states we have through the united states department of justice started a task force to do what is required and necessary and appropriate in terms of investigation as it relates to any criminal activities and behaviors on behalf 6 institutions and individuals including oligarchs. we talked, the president and i, about the effectiveness of the sanctions we have seen thus far in terms of the courage and the
4:15 am
bold action that has been taken through the nato alliance to do what is necessary to sandy clear signal that there will be, as we promised, severe cost and consequence for russia's aggression to the point that we have now seen a free fall of the ruble. to the point that we have now seen that russia's credit rating has been rated as junk and what we know to be real economic consequence to russia because of putin's war. as you know the president of the united states also made the decision to do what was necessary in terms of the purchase of russian oil in the united states, again, we will continue to focus on this issue
4:16 am
keeping in mind that this is a moment that requires severe and swift consequence for russia's aggression against ukraine. i will close by saying what we say every day for these last weeks which is that we stand with the people of ukraine, that why admire their courage, and that we are aligned in our support of their sovereignty and territorial integrity. thank you, mr. president. >> madam from the polish television my name is [inaudible] i represent [inaudible] television. my question to both madam vice president and mr. president. in what way has this virtual attack of russia against ukraine impacted polish american relations, antony blinken last visit to poland was saying about
4:17 am
the polish-american friendship has never been so strong in the history as it is now. translate permanent military presence of the united states in poland. thank you very much. >> it cannot be said too frequently or strongly enough the relationship between the united states and poland is a deep, enduring and strong one. and dare i say has become even stronger. when we have been faced as a world with such adversity, i think we all know even in our personal lives, adversity really, truly can present the real measure of an individual or relationship. what we have seen without any doubt is that this friendship and relationship between the united states and poland is a strong one.
4:18 am
>> ladies and gentlemen, answering your question, i would go a little bit back into history, let me put it the following way as part of my service as president of the republic of poland, in 2015, i was perfectly aware of the fact that an aggressive russia like president was saying in georgia in 2018 would not stop only attacking georgia in 2008 and attacking part of ukraine in 2014. i knew that this appetite, this imperial appetite will grow. and if the world does not reacted to that, if the world
4:19 am
does not react, if the north atlantic reliance does not stand up, does not presented tough then we will see more attackstas from russia. to which perhaps my country poland would fall victim to and when i started as president of poland, i knew i had to do everything that i could to protect polled from such a sen scenario. one has to use very clear and strong words here in the presence of madam vice president of the united states. those understood well what i was saying back then thinking about the russian threat were precisely the representative of the united states where the representative of barack obama administration and the president himself back then, the u.s. general as well and precisely thanks to their support, we were able to obtain the north atlantic alliance presence on the eastern flank, were able to dishiewt strengthening of the eastern flank for the first time saying we joined nato in 1999.
4:20 am
also decisions of other allies whom we were able to convince have led to putting this on the eastern flank of the alliance symbolicfully poland, the united states is the framework nation and at the same time the u.s. soldiers came here and started their rotation in poland. rotational that also persisting presence back-to-back the u.s. armed forces are present on our soil all the time. that was a breakthrough. if we recall the words of president which i quoted many times and i said those words back in 2008. he said and i quote when u.s. soldiers are on our soil, when u.s. military installations are on our soil.
4:21 am
when u.s. military equipment is put on our soil, then the whole world will be able to see that we are no longer a russian sphere of influence. there is a true friendship. asthma dam vice president remarked today a friend in need is a friend indeed. by the decision of president joe biden. additional troops. and also in poland because. geo politics of particular goals geo politics this is the
4:22 am
understanding of the security is polish american president look at the last several years stronger than ever yet, polish american friendship for year over the last seven years of my presidency is, a strong presence here today in warsaw of madam vice president kamala harris yet another strong it -- representative of mr. president joe biden's administration recently on our soil. also, is evidenced by the frequency of contact that i have with the president of the united states. we frequently talk and security related topics and our mutual relations. of course when we think about great politics and this is the friendship great politics. friendship between states friendship between poland and united states of america. >> we have strong right now. strongest perhaps ever in
4:23 am
history. >> next question will come from anita of reuters. >> hi, madam vice president, thank you for and president duda thank you for taking my question. president zelenskyy has strongly asked for better air power in recent days and my question is what kind of alternative plans does the united states have to get materials to help ukraine defend itself, especially now that you have declined poland's offer on jets? can you give can you say some specifics on what you discussed with the polish leaders on this issue madam vice president. and one for president duda, the united states says, mr. president, it was not consulted before you made the offer to make your jets available to the united states? is that accurate and did poland
4:24 am
act unilaterally in making an offer? if question why especially now that you have spoken about the strong relationship that u.s. and poland has shared over the years? thank you. >> i want to be very clear, the united states and polled are united in what we have done and are prepared to do to help ukraine and the people of ukraine. full stop. in terms of the work that the united states has done thus far, we have, as you know, given military, humanitarian and security assistance and that is an ongoing process. as i mentioned early yes, congress, the united states congress has now made a decision
4:25 am
for 13-plus billion dollars of the united states -- of u.s. money to go ukraine and our european allies to assist in terms of both their security and humanitarian needs. we have also just this past week given $240 million of security assistance delivered to ukraine. and that's on top of the $1 billion in just the past year. that we have sent to ukraine. i can tell you that the issue facing the ukrainian people and our allies in eastern flank is something that occupies one of our highest priorities in terms of paying attention to the needs, understanding it as a dynamic situation and requires us to be nimble and to be swift. i mentioned being swift in terms of the accountability and consequence. we also fully appreciate, we
4:26 am
must be swift in terms of providing assistance where we can be helpful. and we will continue to do that. [inaudible] >> well, we are making deliveries everyday in terms of what we can do in terms of assistance and in particular when you look at what we have been doing as it relates to anti-tank and systems that is ongoing process and that's not going to stop to the extent that there [inaudible] thank you. >> ainsley: so you are watching the vice president kamala harris. she is in warsaw, poland to her right is the president of poland. president duda and both of them
4:27 am
have been speaking. you have heard the translation are we going to help? are we going to give those migs. those planes to ukraine to help them? she didn't answer the question. she did say we have been giving a lot of aid. she did commit to $50 billion in additional aid to ukraine. she said that is 250 million for security assistance. she said 1 billion over the last year. >> brian: the question that came out she didn't get close to answering. it wasn't. >> pete: not even close. >> brian: not subtle in the way she did it. she just answered a totally different question and reeled off how much aid we have given to ukraine. we know that we know about javelins. we know about stinger missiles. we got that. but answer the question. because clearly there was a problem. john kirby said it. there was no communication. we had no idea that the pols were going to have those migs at nato air base and told us to fly
4:28 am
them in. that was caught us totally by surprise. john kirby said the pentagon finds unacceptable. >> ainsley: untenable. >> brian: they already answered directly what happened after the meeting to emile rate the ameli. >> pete: i want to be clear u.s. and ukraine are united. now are not. ukraine unilaterally said migs. bring them to a just base. we expect that you backfill them if f 15 or f-16s and ukrainian pilots can fly them in. we can a debate that was a real offered made by poland to the united states that was the whole question wanted answer in that entire press conference. instead words about cooperation and humanitarian assistance and more money for humanitarian assistance. all the things we already knew and we're told that kamala harris told the polish president
4:29 am
a grend a friend in need is a friend indeed that's the strength we are providing. >> ainsley: i think you all would agree with this, i like the fact that we saw the president of poland. we have rarely seen him. it was nice to thank america for all the help for him to say that he is sending aid and taking in so many families from ukraine. he said we have taken in -- we know 2 million have left ukraine. 1.5 he said have gone into his country into poland some are going into hotels but most are going into families homes. people have reached out their arms to people. if you know anyone to poland. they're sending money over there many are traveling to poland. i talked to a doctor yesterday. to the border. dr. measure w59 she asked for payers were. keep her in your prayers. i know a girl from poland. she is going over there to go to the orphanages and take socks and underwear that's what they need. a wonderful show of kindness that poland has given to ukrainian people. i like seeing the vice president there. i do wish she had answered the
4:30 am
question about these migs. the problem is if we do get involved and send these migs through our air base in germany nato gets involved. i know that vladimir putin is already engaged in this war, in this invasion. some say he is already doing it why don't we do it? we don't want to send our troops to get involved in all of this either and start another war. >> brian: original plan seemed good. have the ukrainian pilots show up in poland and fly them out. that was supposed to be the plan. for the polands to do that without telling the u.s., that's bold. i mean, i don't think that's a great move. but, communicate. so their communication should have been healed with a joint statement to lead with and eliminate that controversy off the top. >> pete: maybe poland knew this administration would reject that offer and wanted to show their willingness to contribute and be forward-leaning knowing that the biden administration wouldn't do it. i don't know. but those types of miscommunications amongst allies
4:31 am
in the middle of a shooting war are an indication that people are not on the same page. and that wasn't discussed at all. >> ainsley: i think that putin thought that the russian economy could withstand this. he thought they would take kyiv in two days. remember he said this is a peace keeping mission. that was a lie. we need to bankrupt are putin. we need to send them more arms and more of these missiles and some of this equipment that they need and if we bankrupt putin, he will be destroyed. and so will his country. >> brian: right. takes a lot. 10 years in prison for protesting. let's head out to trey yingst live in kyiv with the latest. hey, trey. i'm sure you saw that press conference. still no answers on the 29 migs. >> yeah. guys, this joint press conference came across like a bilateral check-in it was detached from the reality on the ground as the pair spoke there were air raid sirens sounding in the ukrainian capital of kyiv. we heard this diplomatic and political speak from vice president harris. the ukrainian people don't need that. they need anti-tank missiles.
4:32 am
they need anti-aircraft batteries. we heard all of this talk that you hear out of washington about cooperation and friendship and to be nimble and swift in the response and understanding a preachiating there are people dying as we speak on the ground in ukraine. across this country thousands of people. and the capital is being targeted from the ground and the air. the ukrainians right now are calling for a no-fly zone because women and children are being bombed by russian forces. and while we heard the vice president there talk about this hospital in mariupol where three people, according to officials were killed overnight in a russian strike. she didn't talk about the consequences for that. she didn't talk about the fact that we are viewing evidence of war crimes taking place on the ground in ukraine at the hands of an autocrat. vladimir putin in russia who is literally pushing his forces into this country violating the sovereignty of ukraine with no intention to stop. and that's the situation on the
4:33 am
ground right now. they are calling for a no-fly zone. they don't need thoughts and prayers. you see the images at this hospital where officials say three people were killed overnight. complete devastation and destruction. pregnant women being carried out of the hospital on stretches. and it's not just there. it's across this country. people are still trying to evacuate and the russians are shelling them and in the northern part of ukraine today, some more concerning news about cher nobleg. the nuclear power plant that officials say now disconnected from the power grid and it has about 48 hours of back up emergency generators before there could be a serious disaster on the hands of not only the ukrainian people but the whole world. the officials here in kyiv say that radioactive substances could be carried by wind to other parts of europe while the iaea says right now there are no major safety concerns there this is a developing story and
4:34 am
situation that could get out of the hand. i want you to take a listen to what volodymyr zelenskyy had to say. is he trying to rally the world right now and ask for that military support. while the military aid is critical in this unfolding situation, what they need right now is weapons. take a listen. >> they block our cities. the biggest cities in ukraine. and they blocked and because they don't want our people to get food, water. >> when you have cities that are completely cut off, cities of hundreds of thousands of people and in some cases millions when we're talking about kharkiv where four people were killed overnight or kyiv that the russians are currently trying to surround they need to be able to push back against this russian offensive. that is what we are hearing from officials in kyiv. they want that support and they need it immediately. >> pete: trey, thank you very much. a stark reminder of what is at stake across the country and you are right. it did feel like a standard
4:35 am
bilateral diplomatic meeting that lacked the urgency that certainly zelenskyy would want to hear. hearkens back to blankets and mrs. you can talk about humanitarian assistance all you want. and that's important. that's very, very important. people doing it by the way do deserve our thoughts and prayers that is an important component of it. my goodness this is about missiles and capability to beat back the russian war machine dropping bombs on towns across the country. and it's regular ukrainians, some of which are in real units. some of which are civilians attempting to take on tanks. are they going to get what they need is the question people need answered. >> brian: so worried about the escalatory things. don't give them indication we are escalating things. when you just blow up a children's hospital and you kill three kids and wound moms who just wanted to give birth. >> ainsley: in that one location. they killed a lot of other kids. >> brian: they are not worried about how the west is viewing them. yet not only are we not only
4:36 am
giving them the migs. arrogant thing to say from the pentagon. adding aircraft to the ukrainian inventory is unlikely to change the effectiveness of the ukrainian air force. can you let the ukrainians make the decision how effective military is so from the outsider perspective you know what's best for them. i think not. >> ainsley: 17 women were injured in that hospital. and some of those women were in labor. there were three people that were killed. >> one location. there have been a lot of children killed all over the country. >> brian: 34 hospitals and hundreds of apartment buildings. >> pete: brian, the escalatory conversation is still an important one to have. it ranges from u.s. troops landing in kyiv to support them which no one is advocating for to the current status quo. where do we fall on that line is an important discussion. but, ultimately, listening to zelenskyy and what he needs at the very least more and more weapons. we have got 20,000 foreign
4:37 am
fighters in this country right now. canadians, americans joining the ukrainian foreign legion. there is an entire canadian battalion because some canadian veterans want to go fight on behalf of ukraine. there is a western response just not always at the top -- >> ainsley: even if we aren't able to do the migs. give them every single thing that we can that allows to us not be involved, not to have go in and fight but give them whatever they can. all the arms that they need, we need to give them a lot and bankrupts vladimir putin. >> pete: a friend in need is a friend indeed. >> ainsley: our next gress grew up in mariupol and she has been trying to get in touch with her friends and family there. they have been trapped there for more than a week. her name is julie. and she joins us now from kyiv. good morning, julie. >> good morning. nice to meet you all. >> ainsley: nice to meet you, too. good morning. we are reading your story. and i know that you have your mom, your uncle, your aunt and cousin in mariupol.
4:38 am
>> 8 days of silence. i watch again and again break my heart my mom i walked by her hospital and it was so pretty and nice and there were so many kids around and now just looks like all catastrophe. >> brian: what i hear is no food and water and people desperately trying to get out humanitarian corridor but no sign of how many were able to get out. and it seems the russians are fighting over there without conscience. was that sense on the ground prior to the invasion that this wasn't really going to happen or was there an inevitability quality to your relatives when you talked to them that it was going to happen? >> they really struggling with
4:39 am
humanitarian because there is no water to the city kyiv. even gas in some districts. they are lack of food and water they can drink. there is no cellular data so they can't call or text close one. it really hurts. and for me, at least war started in 2014 with the first region of russia. east of ukraine. and i don't believe cease-fire from russia because after [inaudible] when they opened green line and corridor for our armed force and then just shoot them and opened fire, i don't unfortunately belief in any cease-fire from russia. >> pete: it's not a cease-fire if they don't stop firing which is what we have seen so far. i can't imagine.
4:40 am
you haven't heard from your mom in a week. neither your dad. you are in kyiv right now. and you say you plan to stay there for now. how long will you stay as we cover russian troops they seem to be circling that city as well. >> i'm planning to stay until the end until we can fight back and treat our cities and our land i'm trying to volunteer and also i live here surround by private houses and there are now homeless. so i try to feed them. so i stay until the end and do my best for fight back and for defense our freedom. democracy and. >> ainsley: we are looking at the image thats of the hospital in your hometown. we are so sorry for your loss. we are glad you are safe and hope the rest of your family will too. thank you for joining us. >> pete: god bless you, julie.

4:46 am
retired army staff sergeant and author of "house to house a soldier's memoir" davidville david bellivajoins us now. how would you characterize this from the russian perspective? >> there is humiliation, world power has top five military in the world and for the outnumbered aspect that russia has with material, technology and true power, why you would want to then take that into a house-to-house situation neuters technology. home field advantage is going to got defender. you put a machine gun behind the door i don't care if you are seal team 6 or marvel avengers you are going to get shot. to me makes no sense from
4:47 am
tactical level why putin would want to attempt this. >> brian: if you read your book you actually did go house to house. that's why the name of the book is so perfect and brutal and you see death and destruction all around you. so here's a quick look. you have a monitor right, david? >> i do not. >> brian: just so you know, these are all where the fighting is taking place around the country. they are very spread out and word is there is poor communication between russian forces in the north, the south and the east. i'm going to move forward and to bring it to areas which will lead to urban fighting a bridge running right through the middle of the capital. and then you have got these tight streets where did you go house to house. people have actually said that if you are the urban -- if you are doing urban fighting, house to house, you need five offenders for every defender. so ukraine knows these streets, knows the buildings, and has had two weeks now to fortify the city. what kind of advantage is that? >> just thinking about your own
4:48 am
home, right? you know where everything is. you have lived there for years. all of a sudden you are going in to, you know, for every 10 doors that you knock on, on a neighborhood, one insurgent, one person behind that door is going to engage you, what that does to you the morale is so important in an urban fight. but your psychology, your constantly getting up. what's behind the door? what's behind the door? nothing is behind that door. that happens for 50 consecutive rooms. 50 buildings, and all of a sudden you open up the door there is five guys there. it's physically exhausting. emotionally and spiritually exhausting. and dangerous as all get out. you don't have to be skilled to shoot at someone going through a door. >> brian: so interesting. i remember how you guys did it you cordoned off an entire city. gave name tags to everybody. gave themed ids so you know who is going in and going out before you went into that area that's how you would eventually hold
4:49 am
that area. right now the russians seem to just want to level everything in order to go in. now, david, to their point of view, how do you decapitate a country and a government without going in and getting the people who are running the government? do they even have a choice? >> listen americans fight in urban cities because there is a respect for the civilian population. you are trying to placate the enemy from the civilians, and then there is a hope for tomorrow. you are investing in infrastructure and hospitals and buildings. we are going to take care of the bad guys, trust us. you will have your schools and hospitals back. i mean, what putin showed us in aleppo, what he showed us in grozny and georgia he doesn't give a damn about any of it. if you are taking out children's hospitals and maternity wards. i think we know what the battle of kyiv going to look like. >> brian: i heard you did fight in one of your engagements you
4:50 am
did fight chechens, what do they fight like? how do you characterize how they fight? because evident i they are coming in. >> you know, one of the things will the chechens is that the tough guys, they have cut their teeth against large built up armies like russia in the past. in the middle east there was a spiritual religious fanaticism, what is scaring the russians and what should scare the hell out of putin is you are seeing a nationalistic fanaticism right now with ukraine. europe has not seen a dedication like that in 70 years. what you saw in chechnya, you are going to see in ukraine with people who love their country and want their freedom and that should scare the hell out of russians. >> brian: it should. two weeks, do you believe the ukrainians win by not losing by holding on, david? >> i don't think there is any way that they could hold on. the problem is that russian moms and russian wives are going to get plane loads of bodies. and they are not going to be able to hold their city.
4:51 am
they might not hold their country, but russian -- the russian people are going to have a choice to make why are we burying veteran cemeteries. what was this for? why is this hang? ened the ukrainians aren't going -- it's going to be a death by a thousand cuts with those snipers hanging out in rubble and they are going to bomb them for years if this doesn't end in three months. >> brian: three months. wow. david, we'll see if it comes to urban fighting. like you said, the russians are not going to prevail there but there is going to be a lot of carnage. right now they are just leaving bodies on the battlefield so some of those moms will never find out what happened to their kid. david, thanks so much. >> thank you. >> brian: all right. meanwhile, go over to pete and ainsley. >> ainsley: did you read the story about the trenches and you could see all the video off the trenchts they were building and rolling bodies into the trench family members can't find loved ones, portion are full right now. >> pete: great perspective from the guy who has seen the worst

4:53 am
whatever. it's been a big impact. >> will: there you see it on the ground. first assignment, pete asked me we saw a gas station through the window right across the street. what are gas prices? there are two gas stays, 1 at 409 and $14.15 a gallon right here in northeast ohio. you see the impact with doug. now let me introduce you to lev. ukrainian population here in northeastern ohio. he manages a high rise in cleveland. you are telling me parents immigrated from ukraine. his industry is long but it gets very short in memories and with family and you were talking about how your family in particular and much of your community suffered at the hands of russia throughout the last century. >> oh, during world war 2, my father's father actually was killed by the russians in the insurgency when they were fighting against the russians. on my mom's side. she had her dad had three brothers that actually fought this kind of tyranny also basically. they fought hitler on one side

5:01 am
>> there are no military options there. they bomb. >> these are war crimes. there's no other way of stating it. >> new national gas average reaching $4.32 a gallon. >> they do not care. in fact, it was part of the plan to inflict pain on the american public. bryan: we begin with a fox news alert. new video shows a russian air strike hitting a mall in ukraine's second largest city overnight. local reports say at least four people are dead from that blast. >> ainsley: a mall, schools, hospitals. this as vice president kamala harris reaffirms the u.s. commitment to defend every inch of nato territory. bryan: live in kyiv with the latest. hey, trey. >> good morning. we're following these updates from across the country.
5:02 am
as you noted, kyiv, the second largest city here had a strike overnight that officials say killed at least four people. we have an update on that maternity hospital in the southern city of mariupol where authorities there say three people were killed and 17 wounded after that russian strike. ukrainian president volodymyr zelensky today is calling that a war crime. as you can see from this video here, there is evidence of a crime being committed against these innocent civilians who were at a hospital when it was hit by russian forces. the deputy mayor of mariupol detailed other disturbing actions by the russians in this city since the invasion began saying more than 1100 people have been killed with dozens buried in mass graves. this comes as the ukrainians say russian forces have disconnected the chernobyl nuclear plant from the power grid. this is in the northern part of ukraine. and while emergency generators are reportedly turned on, one ukrainian member of parliament called this a very dangerous situation adding if russia will not cease-fire, they expect radiation leaks. now, the international atomic
5:03 am
energy agency confirmed that chernobyl is no longer transmitting data but say they see no critical impact on safety at this point. the russians continue to suffer significant battlefield losses and the white house this week is warning that russia could stage a false flag attack that involves chemical or biological weapons as a pretext to further military action. today, vice president kamala harris met with the polish president just next door to ukraine. and she had this to say about article five commitments in nato. >> the united states commitment to article five is ironclad. the united states is prepared to defend every inch of nato territory. the united states takes seriously that an attack against one is an attack against all. >> the u.s. doubling down on comments to support nato allies if russia does decide to span their invasion across the other
5:04 am
parts of europe. and it's a major concern right now for the neighbors of ukraine as they look at the calculations of russian president vladimir putin and the action he's taken over the past two weeks. >> i understand there was some good news and they talked about that happening in a prevalent way across the country. have you seen some of that? >> the ukrainian air defense system has been quite active and we've also seen a number of strikes by the ukrainian air force. ukraine's air force is actually pretty intact compared to what the russians continue to say about their efforts targeting different air defense batteries and also those planes that are still taking off and hitting parts of the russian convoy headed towards the ukrainian capital of kyiv. we keep hearing what the russians say and then we see the actions on the ground and very rarely do those two things match up. but we can report at this hour
5:05 am
there are air defense systems still active around the capital. and the ukrainian air force is still trying to target russian convoys across this country. >> pete: i don't know if you can see what we're seeing, we're seeing bombs dropping from the sky on presumably that russian convoy but it looks like russian vehicles. so what you're saying is there was a lot of question about what was being done about that convoy. we're now getting video. your sense is it is being harassed and attacked. >> yeah, there's a number of different convoys across this country. the one video that you're talking about here, the ukrainians are deploying a very common tactic in war when you have a convoy like this. they're trying to hit the front and they're trying to hit the back. and analysts have looked at this video overnight and said many of these russian soldiers don't look like they are trained for this type of combat. you see in some videos they're actually getting out of their tanks and trying to run for cover and it's quite chaotic and many of these forces simply have never been in a combat scenario. russian special forces, yes, but many of these conscripts have
5:06 am
not and it's part of the reason the ukrainians have been able to push back so far on many offensive lines across this country. >> ainsley: i'm not sure if vladimir putin was prepared for that. he said we'll take over kyiv in two days. when you look back at the press conference, nice to see an american presence there and nice to hear from the president of poland. but when kamala harris says we support you. we will do anything we can to support you. she's talking about nato countries. so that doesn't involve ukraine. ukraine is asking for no-fly zone and asking for more arms and actually asking for those planes, the migs, is that what they're called? they're not going to get those, we're not going to send them and be involved with nato. what do the ukrainians say about this? are they furious with the nato countries for not helping or how do they feel? >> vice president harris said that the united states has a lot of appreciation and understanding about the situation on the ground in ukraine. the ukrainian people don't
5:07 am
necessarily need appreciation and understanding. they need anti-aircraft batteries and anti-tank missiles. the situation on the ground is dire. as the president of poland and vice president kamala harris spoke, there were air raid sirens going off in this capital city. there are people dying on the ground here. hundreds of them each hour in some cases. and there is really the world facing what is the largest ground war in europe since world war ii. and we just didn't hear the sense of urgency from the polish president or the vice president kamala harris when they spoke there in poland and it's important because each and every day, the russian forces continue to advance deeper and deeper into ukraine. there are millions of civilians at risk. so the diplomatic talk and the focus on something you would normally see on a summer afternoon during a joint press conference in the rose garden isn't really going to work here for the ukrainian people. they are looking for immediate support and assistance, and they need real physical things on the
5:08 am
ground in the form of weapons and defensive action so that they can push back against this russian offensesive. >> pete: what are the russians trying to say about bombings of hospitals and schools? are they saying it's not happening? are they saying these are errant missiles? are they saying they're being shot at from these buildings and is any of that information making its way to the russian people? >> they are. that's exactly what they're saying. they're claiming they were being shot at from that maternity hospital in mariupol. let's be very clear about this. it is russian propaganda. the russians knew exactly where they were striking. they have hit civilian areas across this country and we continue to hear the russians in moscow say they are not targeting civilians though we have seen it with our own eyes and captured it on camera. we have been standing next to civilians in this country as the russians fire shells at them and shoot from the distance with snipers. this is a tragedy for the ukrainian people. they are caught in the crossfire. and many times, there isn't even
5:09 am
any crossfire to be caught in. often, they are just specifically targeted and that is what we've seen over the past two weeks as the russian forces continue to indiscriminately bomb civilians in ukraine. >> it's interesting, you're talking about propaganda. we interviewed a lady in the first hour of "fox & friends" she has relatives and mom of two and they had to leave because their apartment building next door was bombed and 47 people died. she said she talked to her relatives in russia and they don't believe her when she says we're having bombings. my apartment building next door was bombed because they're not seeing it on the state run tv and on the networks there in russia. it is unbelievable. >> absolutely. the russians are cracking down on media. it's part of the reason this entire industry has had to recalculate if they can have journalists on the ground in russia because they are clamping down on the truth. and it's part of the russian playbook, it is the push from
5:10 am
vladimir putin himself to make sure that the world doesn't really understand his world understand what's going on and he wants to make sure that the russian people really can't have any connection to the outside world. and in part, he's getting what he wants because he is totally isolated from the rest of the world. we're not just seeing economic sanctions targeting the russians. we're seeing everything from apple pay to mcdonald's to netflix saying no more. russia will not have access to these products because of the leadership there and the decisions that they're making. the international laws that they are violating. but once again today, russian president putin is doing every single thing he can to lie to his own people and to lie to the world about what's happening on the ground in ukraine and it's part of the reason that we are here so we can capture the truth and tell it to the world. >> i don't think he can pull this off. as he says over and over again, ukraine and russia are so close, everyone has relatives everywhere intermingled and there's social media in other
5:11 am
ways. so it's not going to be apparent but it's going to be very obvious, very shortly what's going on there. i mean, there's a reason why there's no starbucks, no mcdonald's, no netflix, the rouble is worth less than a cent. i mean, how can people hide -- not going to be able to hide that for too long. you get 10 years for protesting. so i'm not sure how much power the russian people have. >> ainsley: thanks, trey. >> absolutely. >> pete: appreciate it. >> a couple of things going on, when you look at the price of gas, when you look at this inflation, people are saying hey, i have an idea. why don't you pump more? why don't you drill more? why don't we get back to producing our own oil since saudi arabia won't even pick up the phone when we call? same thing with u.a.e., venezuela is an outlaw nation and iran is not even continuing talks with us. hopefully, that peace deal falls apart. so when people who hate fossil fuels like a.o.c. are asked about it, they literally walk

away. secretary of energy granholm when asked about drilling more, they whisked her away from the microphone. when john kerry was asked about it and the refugee problem, he tweets out, we've already seen climate refugees around the world. if you think migration has been a problem in europe, we'll have 100 million people from whom food production capacity has collapsed. instead of john kerry answering the question, he talks about climate change. there's a problem when you don't own up to a problem. >> pete: here's the new spin from the white house. this is what they're going with as their rationalization of a -- it's a rapid spiralling of gas prices. every time we wake up, you look up, it's 10 cents higher. 15 cents higher. >> ainsley: has been for the last year. >> pete: especially recently. here's what the white house is saying, communications director tweeting this. for months, putin has been saber rattling and for months, gas prices have been going up. 75 cents since he began his military build-up. this is the hashtag putin price hike in action. and potus will use every tool at
5:13 am
his disposal to shield americans from pain at the pump. but as charles payne pointed out, to you, brian, he's used every tool at his disposal to try to crush the oil and gas industry in america first as a candidate and when he was elected. they have said from the keystone pipeline to new drilling to new leases, they want to crush it. and even put oil executives in jail in 2019. he's going to say it's just because russia. this will be the cynical political spin that's disgusting coming from the white house because they created the problem. now they have no solution. so they're going to blame it on putin. >> ainsley: act like the celebrities going on their shows and saying we don't care. we'll pay $8 a gallon. we don't care, we'll pay $10 a gallon if it means that you get an electric car. eventually, we're going to force you to get an electric car. that's what they should just say. that's what they mean. they closed down the keystone pipeline. they don't care if you're making $20,000 a year and you can't
5:14 am
afford to fill up your gas tank for $100. they don't care that you can't afford a $60,000 electric car. they just want to force everyone eventually to get electric cars and they don't care if that means you have to pay more. >> the spin is already happening. blame vladimir putin. here's the exchange yesterday. >> why did you guys decide to rebrand the rise in gas prices as the #putinpricehike. >> if you want to use that on fox, i welcome that. >> i think it will get a lot of air time because we have heard the president warn for months that the gas prices were rising because of the supply chain and because of post pandemic demand. you guys knew for months this was going to be the #putin price hike, why are we just hearing that now? >> well, peter, if we go back to six months ago, i don't think anyone was predicting we would be exactly where we are as it relates to russia and ukraine. as you know that events in the world including the invasion by
5:15 am
russia of a foreign country does prompt instability and volatility in the global oil market. hence, you have putin pump gas price pump. >> pete: you said at the break or while she was talking, didn't they predict it? >> every day, she told us attack is going to happen. attack was going to happen. it was zelensky who said you keep telling me it's going to happen, why don't i have more weapons? why don't you help me before it happens? so the u.s. and our allies were saying the invasion is going to take place. you can't act like you were surprised by it. do you think this spin is going to work? >> pete: they're going to try. there's a new video out from jen psaki again this morning blaming putin our own oil companies, they're going to attempt to -- they're going to attempt talking about the number of open leases, ignoring their war on oil and gas. this is exactly how they're going to try to spin it. don't forget this, too, their goal from the beginning of this was to deter vladimir putin. we're going to deter him with
5:16 am
sanctions. they said later they knew it wouldn't work. if your goal is to deter and all out war breaks out, you have failed from the outset. blaming vladimir putin means you should be blaming yourself as well which they'll never do. >> ainsley: we were energy independent and now we're not. western dependent on russia until a few days ago and now we might be dependent on venezuela and iran. >> can i jump him on this gas price conversation? one thing that general psaki that blew my mind, she said starting the keystone pipeline wouldn't lower gas prices because that gas is -- she admitted that gas is already coming into the country which means it's coming in either by truck or train which is a dirtier mode of transportation than the pipeline which means that all of those thousands of people that lost their jobs at the start of the biden administration did so for absolutely no reason other than politics by the biden administration. if that oil and gas is still
5:17 am
coming in the country, why wasn't it by pipeline? >> right. not at the speed of the pipeline or the convenience. you know who does benefit from it is warren buffet, invested heavily in rail. >> lot of pipeliners talk about that. >> every time people are using trains instead of pipelines, warren buffet, i think, gets a -- >> those people lost their jobs with the biden administration can score some political points with the climate change people, and general psaki just admitted it in front of the american people. >> went and covered the story. >> that's exactly right. i was happy to do it. got to get to some more news right now starting with this. two veteran l.a. county prosecutors are suing their boss, they claim gascon demoted them for opposing his reforms for violent criminals. lawsuit alleging the workers refused to take action. they reasonably believe were violations of the law. in return, the workers say they were resigned to lower positions.

>> pete: it's not just ukrainians taking on the russian army. military vets from around the world including the u.s. are traveling to ukraine to fight. our next guests are doing their part to bring aid and supplies to the ukrainian people. here now is dakota meyer, marine veteran and recipient of the medal of honor. along with chad robacho, co-founder of save our allies, served eight tours in afghanistan himself. gentlemen, both thank you for being here. chad, i'll start with you. why are you over there? what are you doing? >> well, we're over here to save our allies. save our allies, we stood up in august to go and help afghanistan and ultimately rescued 17,000 people in afghanistan through the experience of afghanistan and helping rescue people there, we built an amazing team and
5:25 am
capabilities from former special operations veterans with the skills and expertise to do precision rescue operations around the world. and when this happened in ukraine, we knew we had to come out and respond to help americans evacuating vulnerable ukrainian people like women and children and the elderly and the big need is pushing medical supplies forward. bringing medical support in the ukraine where it's needed most. >> pete: dakota, you've seen so much in your life. what are you seeing here with the efforts you're undertaking? >> look, you know, i've been to afghanistan and iraq and this is by far the worst thing that our generation has ever witnessed. this is the most evil that the globe has witnessed during our generation. and yeah, i mean, the complexity of this situation, you know, after being in iraq and afghanistan, you know, the complexity of this situation is something not to be underestimated. you have two sovereign nations fighting and you have two, you know, two militaries that aren't
5:26 am
third world militaries, right? i mean, it is a complex situation. what these people are going through, you know, the, you know, just not military but the people of ukraine and what they're going through and the suffering of what they're going through, it's so astronomical. people living in subways. people who -- people who were just ordinary citizens having to pick up arms and defend their country and they're running out of food, you know, like the russians are sitting out around, you know, going to try to wait them out until they run out of food. it is such a terrible, horrific, horrific event. >> pete: we're seeing vets going all the way in. you're doing the military aid. are you seeing people going in? i would ask you both, is there a point where it would escalate or get close to the border or get even worse that you guys would go in and no need for you two. you guys have given and done so much. i kind of ask that calculation when you see what's going on, chad. >> no, no, we are going in. we've had team members on the
5:27 am
ground here for over a month knowing this was going to happen. we just had a team, some of our team just evacuated a group of people. so we've already had rescued people from inside ukraine. all the way up to kyiv, we've had people going right there. i mean, one of our team members drove up on a tank that was just blown up within minutes, body still smoldering as well as civilian vehicles. so we're going in. and we're going to be going in in the next few days again to -- because the work that needs to be done needs to be done inside ukraine and, you know, if we have the skills and experience to do it, this is not something we're underestimating. we have some very experienced guys on our team that have not only deployed in combat but served in the highest level of special operations. we're not going there to do -- we have no interest or desire to go and fight for the ukrainian people but we have interest in support and we have the ability to do that. going to go there and help these vulnerable people that can't help themselves. and no government in the world
5:28 am
right now is coming to help them. the community has to do it in order to prevent -- enable the ukrainians so we can prevent a global war. >> we're out of time. how can people support our efforts at save our allies? >> look, all this funding is out of pocket, right. we're all a nonprofit. go to saveourallies.org, anything helps. all this money is coming out of our own pockets and coming out of, you know, there's no government assistance for this. the government doesn't want to be involved or isn't involved at this point. so anything helps. >> pete: leading from the front, as always, saveourallies.org, god bless you guys. keep us posted, please. quick correction, during her presser in poland, vice president kamala harris announced over $50 million in new humanitarian aid to ukraine. earlier transcript read $50

>> ainsley: back with a fox news alert. key inflation report released. consumer prices jumping 7.9% year over year. that is the highest in almost 40 years. last month alone, prices were up .8%. so guys, last month's report was at 7.5%. this number even worse. and those new numbers don't even reflect the increase in oil and gas. so the reality of the situation, even worse than what that number reflects. >> ainsley: we're paying more for every single thing. gas prices have gone up. electricity has gone up. food prices have gone up. >> pete: gas and energy affects everything across the board. transporting everything gets more expensive and that's not even factored into the c.p.i. here. >> brian: right. meanwhile, let's bring in frank who has seen what's going on there and seen the devastation and as c.e.o., you saw this is
5:34 am
taking place. you saw what's going on on your screens and tunnel to towers has decided to do something about it. >> yeah, you just can't sit back, you know, we can't do a lot because i'm not the military. i can't go in and do things like our military can do. but we can do something as a foundation so tunnel to towers foundation is going to donate a minimum of a million dollars to the kids of ukraine. so we're working with a great organization, kids save who has boots on the ground who have been in ukraine for years with orphans. they've been helping with orphans for many years, getting a lot of them here in the united states, get adopted, etc. and they're going in with vehicles every single day driving into war zones and getting these kids from orphanages and many of them are disabled and they're bringing them back to poland and getting them placed in different homes. so we're going to put a lot of our money towards that. but we're going to do other things as well. >> ainsley: that's amaamazing. i know there are american families that want to bring in
5:35 am
those children. is that a possibility through that organization? >> absolutely. but not now. the focus is getting into a safe place. we've been working with kids save through the inception of our foundation because people don't know that the tunnels for towers, my brother was orphaned by age 10 years old. so we've always worked with orphans and we help both an orphanage in haiti and did one with a new york family and put a lot of time and effort into children. and with the foundation now, if you're a former first responder or gold star family, you have young children left behind, we help you. our foundation is focused around kids. so this is a perfect thing for us to do. >> pete: before the segment, you mentioned you've been in touch with the mayor that is a totally embattled city right now, surrounded. >> it was incredible. i talked through an interpreter. he does not speak english. and he was just so emotional, the conversation was so emotional what's going on to the people that he loves. his country that he loves. and he said that he has so many
5:36 am
women and children that have to get out of there. they have these so-called safe corridors but they're not safe, as we well know. so, you know, we are going to do everything that we can possibly do to get as many children out in a safe way. >> ainsley: did he talk about his own safety? >> he didn't care about his own safety. i can tell you that. these are great heroes over there, really standing up in a beautiful way. and i know we would do that here in america in a second. but we all have to do what we can do. i'm asking people to go to t2t.org. we're donating a million dollars. i would like to do a heck of a lot more. your viewers have always helped us. they know all their money will go to this. >> brian: i've had more people come up to me say how do i help? we feel so helpless. we're not doing anything militarily here and worried about giving money to an abyss and black hole. that's why it's so heartening to see you here. i can say tunnel to towers are taking action. are you going for $5?
5:37 am
>> maybe more. i don't know how the reaction will be. i think it will be big. but it won't end when it ends because all these kids are going to be homeless. >> ainsley: how specifically do they use that money? >> right now, they're buying vehicles and paying people to go in, you know, for gas, etc., to go in and bring aid, bring food, bring water as they're going into the country and to save these kids and bringing them out. i said many of them have disabilities, you know, have been put in orphanages because, whatever. and so, it is heartbreaking to watch and see. but know that all the donations that come in, we are going to make sure every penny, every penny goes to help these kids. >> pete: t2t.org. thank you so much. >> god bless. >> pete: coming up, as biden looks everywhere but america to bring down the cost of gas, one governor is begging the administration to let him drill. alaska's mike dunleavy joins us live with his plan.

>> the pipeline is just a delivery mechanism. it is not an oil field. it does not deliver more supply into the system. >> is it possible that joe biden will ever say, go ahead with construction of keystone. >> there's no plans for that. it would not address any of the problems we're having currently. >> ainsley: the white house claims it's exploring all options to bring down the cost of gasoline. so why won't they discuss restarting construction on the keystone pipeline? governor mike dunleavy says the biden administration is looking for solutions anywhere on the planet except for right here at home. and he joins us now. good morning, governor. >> good morning. great to be here, thank you. >> ainsley: you are welcome. thanks for coming on. you hear general psaki doubling down and tripling down, they're not considering the keystone pipeline. your reaction? >> they're just going to end up punishing the american people and they're going to make us
5:43 am
more energy insecure, not secure. and it's going to embolden our enemies and we've already seen that and we'll see that more around the world. purpose is to drive us into a green world quicker than the green world itself is ready for. that's part of the problem. we don't have all of the technologies in place to be able to transition overnight from a fossil fuel based electrification to a green process. so what we're advocating for is let's use some common sense here. let's not beat up the american people with high gas prices and fuel prices and transportation costs. and let's help out our allies and we have the energy here in america to do that. and so this transition is going to take -- it's going to take some time. but to just pull the rug out from underneath the oil and gas industry just going to hurt america. >> ainsley: yeah, and we're experiencing such high inflation. inflation numbers just came out 7.9% in february. it was so much less than that when joe biden took office. what's your reaction?
5:44 am
>> there's a disconnect between the people of this country and this administration. this administration is bent on social engineering this country and making it into the image once again of a segment of the population that voted for this president. the vast majority of americans want to make sure they can put food on the table, have a job, be able to drive their cars and heat their homes. this administration right now is focused on social engineering this country so that we're off of fossil fuels overnight apparently and we are driving electric cars, everything is run electricity. but again, they have to -- they have to ask themselves, how do you produce that electricity? sure, renewables are great. we advocate and support renewables here in alaska. but reality is we're still years away from getting to that point. and we're going to have a lot of hardship here in this country if we try to do this overnight. we're seeing that now. >> ainsley: governor, we're going to buy the fossil fuels anyway. now they're talking about iran and venezuela, excuse me, or
5:45 am
even saudi arabia. if we're going to use them anyway, why not produce them here at least for the next year or so so we can find a way to produce cleaner energy? also, gas prices are so high. and a lot of it is -- some of it is because of russia. but prices have been going up for the last year, since joe biden took office. we've seen that. he can't spin that because it's affected all of our families. our heating bills are going up, too. i know that you're considering these relief checks for all the people of alaska. tell us about them. >> well, sure. alaska is an oil state. we're anticipating billions of dollars in surplus this year as a result of high prices. but those high prices come off the backs of our alaskan citizens as well as others across the globe. nonetheless, we've always had a high cost of energy within the state of alaska because of our small population and distances. and so, for example, in the past week, gas has increased. gasoline has increased in ourp largest city anchorage by 70 cents in one week. we see no end in sight. what we're planning on doing is
5:46 am
making sure that the alaskan people get what we refer to as their dividend and we're going to make sure that that dividend is of substantial size that they're able to offset some of these costs. we've seen what inflation has done in the past year. it's going to keep going up. so we're going to help our people with some of the windfall from the high oil prices. >> ainsley: we're looking at your gas prices up there. national average is $4.32. on thursday, today, $4.68 in alaska. last year it was $3.03. that's expensive. you're talking about possible relief checks, $1300 per person? >> we're talking about making sure that a permanent fund dividend is as close to a full dividend as possible which would include that $1300. somewhere in the neighborhood of $3700 per person. we've always distributed a dividend for the past several decades based upon our oil royalty and stock market returns for our permanent fund. so we have a windfall now, we want to help our people. people are hurting not just in alaska but across this country.
5:47 am
>> ainsley: that would mean so much to your constituents. thank you so much for coming on with us. >> thank you for having me. >> ainsley: you're welcome. let's check in with janice dean for our fox weather forecast. >> good morning, ainsley. temperatures are a little chilly and we're expecting another round of snow. i'll show you where much of the country is experiencing cold temperatures. 1 in denver, actual air temperatures, minus 5 in fargo. it feels colder than that. we have our storm system that's cranked up across the portions of the rockies in towards the plain states and then we also have the potential for heavy rainfall as well as severe storms for the southeast again today and tomorrow. so this is what we're going to be watching over the next couple of days as this low moves out of the rockies. moves into the southeast. we could see some severe weather for parts of florida and the southeast and then it will continue to move up towards the east coast and we think it's going to bomb out and bring us the potential for over a foot of snow for the interior sections
5:48 am
and we think mainly rain along the coast for the southeast. but we'll continue to refine that forecast maybe one more shot of snow for the kids as maybe we get into springtime, march can be like that. foxweather.com for your latest forecast details. back to you. >> ainsley: thank you. coming up next, americans uniting in their support for ukraine and we're going to check in with the people in one town in ohio that has a sister city relationship. but first, let's check in with bill to find out what's coming up on his show. >> nice to see you. watching will from parma, ohio, south of cleveland. >> ainsley: you know where that is. >> that's right. thank you, ainsley. nice show. no fighter jets from nato. a former ambassador to nato will address that for us coming up in a moment here. nile ferguson on how this all ends. good question, isn't it? maria on the inflation angle. that's gone up again today. breaking news a couple of minutes ago. the politics of energy and gas prices of what it means down the road. join in another two hours coming up at the top of the hour on day

near the city's ukrainian village. hey, will. >> hey, brian, that's right. ukrainian village right here in parma, ohio, southside diner. why? because it's home to one of the largest ukrainian populations in ohio and one of the largest ukrainian populations in the united states. let me introduce you to a fascinating couple. this is irena and alex. alex immigrated here from belarus. irena immigrated here from ukraine. they're married and irena was sharing with me some of the stories that you're hearing from friends and family back in ukraine. >> yes, absolutely correct. and it's heartbreaking and devastating. i have a lot of family and friends still in ukraine. a lot of them in the western part but a lot of them actually live in kyiv. most of them left kyiv as it's very unsafe right now, and one of the last people that kept me up at night was my cousin.
5:54 am

5:55 am
