made the agreement so they could shell civilians in the open. the alternative scenario is that they did not get the word and they did not know there was supposed to stop shelling. either way it is a bad outcome and there will not be much trust of the russians next time they offer a cease-fire. >> president putin is claiming ukrainian neo-nazis were not allowing people to leave ukrainian cities to leaves -- use them as human shields. russian forces unleashed aerial bombardment on civilian areas. the increased shelling could lead to significant civilian casualties and the days to come are likely to be worse as russia brings heavier weapons. president zelensky is putting the blame on nato for refusing to impose a no-fly zone. >> all of the people who died this day died because of your weakness, because her greatest unity. >-- your disunity.

>> nato defended its decision saying a no-fly zone could lead to all-out war in europe. john garamendi is sets on the armed services committee got off of a call with president zelensky. thank you for joining us this weekend, congressman. what was the message zelensky -- president zelensky had for you and your fellow lawmakers. >> basically three messages. he spoke about the ukrainian people. the suffering they have as well as the bravery and their determination to maintain their freedom and not become subjugated computer and and right -- to vladimir putin and russia. he spoke about the need for continued assistance. he did not ask for a nato no-fly zone. he did ask for airplanes, russian airplanes presently part of the polish romanian and bulgarian air force, that does

planes transferred -- those planes be transferred to ukraine. the ukrainian pilots already trying to fly on those planes so they, they ukrainians could impose their own no-fly zone. he went on to say that he gave an example of what russia intends to do. they intend to decapitate the ukrainian government. he talked about a mayor in one of the cities that was removed from the city hall, taken, and shot. he says that is what they intend to do, to put in place a puppet government after they remove us. he said clearly, i am not leaving. i am the head of state. i am here and will continue to support and lead the government and our people in our fight for freedom. >> wow. the ukrainians have been putting

up an impressive fight led by zielinski. -- president zelensky. it president zelensky give a sense of how long he believes the ukrainian forces will be able to hold on? >> he was quite clear that the ukrainian people will never be subjects of russia. they will fight for their freedom and clearly they will fight street by street, block by block, house by house in the cities of certainly kyiv and beyond. ukraine may be headed lengthy insurgency. with extraordinary cost to the russians. and i believe that these sanctions, together with the eventual awareness of the russian people of what is now happening and probably will continue to happen in th the russian people will be out

on the streets in force and already some 7000 have been arrested in demonstrations in cities across russia. there is more to come. these sanctions will hit the russian economy and the russian people hard. when they find out why they are suffering so in russia they will find out it is best because -- it is because putin has unleashed terror in ukraine and they will not stand for that. >> in terms of what more the u.s. can do, i believe president zelensky on the call may be asked for all oil imports from russia to stop, for visa and mastercard to end services on russia, do you support these actions? what kind of impact you think they would make? >> first, the sanctions do not at the moment include the embargo of russian oil. it should.

i believe this will happen in the next couple days. your previous section about the cost of fuel, of gasoline, was very much on the president's mind. however, even with the risk of higher gas prices as russian boyle is cut off from the u.s. and international marketplace gas prices are likely to go up. i suggest all of us take a careful look at the extraordinary profits the oil industry has had over the last several months. that is worthy of investigation. i believe u.s. congress needs to take steps immediately, next week specifically, to pass legislation appropriate -- appropriating the necessary money for humanitarian aid to refugees as well as humanitarian aid within the ukraine and also the necessary military supplies

and be willing to provide backup for the aircraft that were moved from eastern european countries into ukraine, that we backfill those. those are things we cannot muster. we also ought to pass legislation that would authorized by law the sanctions that the biden administration has already put in place so there is no doubt about that again body of the sanctions and no doubt about the uniform solidarity of congress and the american people behind those sanctions being imposed. >> absolutely. congressman, thank you so much for hopping on this zoom with us this morning. we know you have had a busy morning and we appreciate your time. thank you. >> knew this morning reports that wnba all-star brittney griner is in custody now in russia after being arrested in
