tv   Jose Diaz- Balart Reports  MSNBC  March 25, 2022 7:00am-8:00am PDT

7:00 am
what we are wanting. expression of solidarity, also economic solidarity between the european union and the united states and also in term of energy. that's central to us and we are looking forward to continue this good partnership. it is vital to us. thank you so much for being here on a busy day, ambassador regibeau. really appreciate it. i want to say a special thanks to chris jansing. i am kristen welker reporting. jose diaz-balart reports pick up our coverage. >> good morning, on a busy friday morning. moments ago president biden arrived to poland where he'll be meeting with service members,
7:01 am
stationed alongside our nato allies. the president will meet to millions who have fled the war. tomorrow, president biden is expected to deliver a major address. we'll bring you a live report from poland and we'll talk to senator jack reed. in ukraine, mariupol officials said at least 300 people were killed in the strike of the theater as being used for shelter. mitch mcconnell will vote against confirming judge ketanji brown jackson. senator hirono will join us to discuss judge jackson. >> we begin this friday morning
7:02 am
with president biden in poland, a key u.s. ally is playing a key role in this humanitarian crisis as a result of russia's invasion into ukraine. president biden touched down in poland where he'll be meeting with service members and receiving a briefing of the broad humanitarian response of the growing number of refugees fleeing the violence in ukraine. joining us now is our correspondent, kelly o'donell in warsaw. good morning, what are the president's objectives today with this trip? >> reporter: well, this is an important part of this trip. i would like to bring you up to date on some developments that have been unexpected here and everything is okay but there was an emergency landing involving the president of poland and his plane. he was supposed to be meeting president biden, greeting him there and that did not happen because the president of poland, his plane had some kind of
7:03 am
mechanical difficulty and is returning here to warsaw. the president is closer to the ukraine border, president biden remains on air force one for an extended period of time. that's the safest place for him to be especially close to ukraine border. the u.s. is changing his schedule now, unable to meet with the president of poland at this time, they'll work it out and figure out a change in the schedule. he'll go on and meet u.s. troops so the president has -- members of nato and the u.s. sent thousands of additional troops from the u.s. and repositioning them within europe. that'll be part of what he'll do today. then a piece of what we'll be watching carefully is the president having his first opportunity to see, meet and talk with ukrainian refugees who have fled this violence, who have seen the war with their own
7:04 am
eyes and seen their own homes and communities destroyed by russian aggression here. the president will be talking to aid workers who have been so key in trying to help these refugees and now numbering in the millions who need to have food, and shelter and new documents. all of the things that can make this temporary transition a little easier after so much trauma and heart ache. the president will be doing that as well. here in poland there are key ally relationships to tend to as well. certainly poland has been apart of the discussion about military aid to ukraine and also we know that russia and poland have their own history of tensions so there is great concern about any vulnerabilities poland may face if russia had any interests in going beyond ukraine and that's a big question mark in this war. the president will also deliver an address tomorrow that'll wrap
7:05 am
up this trip, and we'll talk about what we expect will be the fight for democracy and the way the world is coming together. the president has really been trying to lead european leaders and nato partners and all of the allies who have come to try to have a unified position against russia in this. so that's what we'll be looking for. today will be critical for the president to have a tactile and an emotional experience to connect with american service members. but, we also can see how these things don't always go exactly as planned and we are reporting out what happened with president judo's plane, again, it is mechanical issue and he'll catch up with president biden later. >> it is amazing to see how much poland has done to help ukraine, not only receiving them in open arms but also sending make jets over to ukraine, via germany.
7:06 am
president biden is also setting plans to provide europe with natural gas? >> reporter: this is one of the issues certainly stems from what's happening. the u.s. cut-off importation of russian gas and oil. one of the big questions is how can europe goes on and have its own city functions if they don't have that access? the u.s. is setting up what will be a long-term plan to import liquid natural gas and also to find other outlets to be able to replace some of what russia has been supplying. that was an announcement today with the european union commission. that's what part of the president trying to deal with the fall-out of this war for europe. you get the sense of so many
7:07 am
components of this, the economic fallout and humanitarian needs. so much diplomacy going on. it is not easy to replace that kind of energy supply and the u.s. is trying to make up some of it and that's just coming together now. jose. >> yes, kelly, thank you very much. "the new york times" reports plan to provide gas to the europe is largely symbolic. europe does not have the capacity to import significantly more. kelly o'donell, thank you. let's go right to images live, president biden in poland, let's go live to him. >> this is the president at the secondary born. sident at the secondary born d
7:08 am
second airborne. >> nice to meet you. >> how are you doing, pal? >> thank you.
7:09 am
>> we are also joined by kelly o'donell in poland as we are watching live picture of the president just arrived, meeting members with the 82nd airborne. looks like he's in a barbershop. kelly, it is significant that the president would first and for most meeting with the u.s. troops in nato country that's doing so much to support the people of ukraine. >> that's right. you are correct. he's at a barbershop. we have been told that the president would meet members of the 82nd airborne where ever they are. if they were having a meal, he would meet them there or training, he would meet them there. it would depend on the timing of
7:10 am
the day. as you know the military, haircuts are crucial. these members were getting their haircuts. that's how it timed out. part of the planning for this, this trip came together quickly and late. this is one of those kind of unannounced stops where certainly the president's team had been in touch but not something that got a lot of attention and publication in advance. this was a case where the president with a smaller footprint can go in and see these service members and connect with them and have the commander in chief moment since he's responsible for placing them here in poland. haircuts for all there. the president will also be meeting with people who provide a number of services for the refugees who are coming out of ukraine, dealing with a whole range of issues from the trauma they experienced, needs for food and clothing and medical treatment, replacing documents and people fled their homes and
7:11 am
who have no passports and paper work. all of those kinds of things that is in the realm of usaid. poland is taking a lead on that. so the president will have a chance to meet with international aid workers and the volunteers and so forth. he'll get a briefing today that'll be sort of a casual briefing and by that i mean not a formal set up. some where he'll be able to hear from some of the people doing that front line work. the white house telling us they want to be sure they don't interfere any of the services being provided but for the president to get a chance to see this. u.s. taxpayers are sending a lot of money to support. the president is making decisions about this to aid these workers and the refugees who are apart of this and so this is as chance for him to see it up close. jose. >> kelly o'donell, it is great to see you. now right now in ukraine a
7:12 am
community is reeling after another night of relentless attack. since invasion, over 600 homes have been destroyed by shelling and missiles. mariupol last week, city officials now say at least 300 people died in that attack. nbc news is not able to independently verify that figure. joining us now is nbc's gabe gutierrez. what are you seeing on the ground? >> reporter: hi there, jose, good morning. you saw those live pictures of the president arriving in poland. we see refugees leaving to poland and across the country to europe. i spoke with one family from mariupol trying to make their way through the czech republic. this all comes as the fighting is intensifying in many parts of
7:13 am
this country. mariupol in that city. 300 people killed inside that airstrike from the theater. a devastating scene with people trying to get out, of course nbc news has not been able to independently verify that death toll. local officials continue to urge the international community to watch this. we have been speaking with more and more refugees who are telling us harrowing stories of their escape. as you said, jose, fighting have been intensifying in other parts of the country. in kharkiv and in and around kyiv as ukrainian forces now say they are mounting more of a counter attack, they're saying they are beating back russian forces, although those claims are hard to verify as well. one more thing i want to mention, we are in touch of a family of a u.s. citizen, a
7:14 am
missionary who has lived in ukraine for some time but often visits the u.s. now there is an international request to find him. his wife said he has been abducted. the u.s. department is aware of the reported abduction but can't comment on it due to privacy concerns. his family is desperate for answers at this point, jose. >> six days in, thank you very much, gabe gutierrez. for more i want to bring in jack reed, the chairman of the armed services. pleasure to see you. the president says they'll respond if the russians use
7:15 am
chemical weapons. what kind of consequences should russia have if putin uses these chemical weapons? >> the president is very clear. it could range from cyber operations which we are capable of doing, and it will include significant operations making sure the people of russia are getting some of the truth, although they are being suppressed. the president has a range of options and will take the one that's most likely to deter further uses of chemical weapons and not hopefully likely to escalate further. >> it seems as though putin has in the past been to deter from
7:16 am
using let's say chemical weapons. he did it in syria. what is it that you think could help putin decide that the cost of going into ukraine simply too hig? >> first, is worldwide condemnation. nato is with us, we are on the border with our nato allies and u.s. forces together with our nato allies. that sends a strong signal that we are not taken this for granted. we are prepared to react. the economic sanctions are more difficult each day for the russians. we are beginning to use intelligence to try to expose their plan to fall flag
7:17 am
operations and also a reality on the battlefield, the ukrainians fighting with such courage under the leadership of president zelenskyy, they are inflicting significant casualties on russian forces. from a military standpoint, he's not doing well. from a diplomatic standpoint, he has the world against him and russia is being squeezed out of the world market. >> it is so important that you mention all these things. according to lawmakers, "the intelligence community and american military appeared to misjudged both the country's will to fight". how do we improve for better
7:18 am
assessment? >> it is difficult. one of the most difficult things to gather intelligence is the intangible. the character of the people and the willingness to fight. we can count the number of vehicles and troops and etc. what we can engage is difficult. the fighting spirit of both the russian forces and the ukrainian forces. i think one of the things we missed judge was the skills and russian forces and we over overes overestimated that.between the taliban and the afghan, there
7:19 am
were triable differences but not cohesive. the russian military is top down. when they are confront with mistakes, the senior force is blaming someone else instead of these images live as the president is speaking to members of the 82nd airborne. i guess it is a barber shop of some sort. the president is expected to arrive here and speak to the men and women who are there right now. senator, i want to ask you about refugees. the biden administration will take up up to 100,000 ukrainian refugees. how can they follow through with that promise? >> we are committed to doing that. we took in, approximately 80,000
7:20 am
refugees from afghanistan. we did it through the military at first, northern command. they learned lessons from the afghan experience. we'll bring them into military bases and goes through the paper work necessary to get them established and find communities and the united states and i think there is an abundance of communities that would embrace these ukrainians and get them out. i think we are prepared to do it and we'll do it. >> senator, i know very briefly you mentioned you had a close relationship with supreme court justice breyer at law school. what do you hope his legacy will be and what do think judge jackson will bring to the court? >> justice breyer is one o of the thoughtful interpretation of the constitution capturing the spirit as well as the letter
7:21 am
which is equal justice for all. that's what's engraved at the supreme court. i think justice jackson will continue in that spirit. she was a clerk for justice breyer and our distinguished justice here on the circuit court and both of those gentlemen were great instructors. she was a public defender for a while. she's not a corporate lawyer, she's going to come in with the experience of being in the courtroom with people that have come there for many different reasons with many dificulties. she will bring the spirit of not just seeking the law but seeking justice which is critical. >> thank you very much for being with us this morning, senator jack reed.
7:22 am
>> thank you, jose. i asked to shout-out to the 82nd. they're really good soldiers. >> oh boy, are they ever? senator, thank you so much for being with us. we are getting a closer look of the devastating traumas that's inflicted on the ukrainian people and refugees. sky news spoke to one mother who fled war-torn mariupol who describes the heartbreaking conversation with her son. >> i don't know how to explain this because you don't know whether you will be alive or will your son be alive? one night he said to me, he's 10-year-old, sorry -- he asked me, "mom, will we be alive for my birthday in august?"
7:23 am
will we be alive? i didn't know what to say to him. >> joining me now the former secretary for president zelenskyy. >> thank you for being with us. that mother being asked by her son, will i turn 11 years of age? what a question? what an existentially different question for anyone to ask and a 10-year-old child. this is happening throughout that country, hundreds and thousands of people just like that mother are having that conversation today. >> thank you for having me, you are absolutely correct. over 1 million ukrainian people left the country and over 1 million ukrainian kids who experienced the war zone and
7:24 am
have the same questions to their mothers here in ukraine these days. actually this is the time when ukrainian kids turn adults very fast. they lose their childhood immediately because they need to care about existential questions such as how to survive and what to eat and how to behave. this is as whole psychology and this is a disaster here. it is really very appreciated to see how the european and western u.s. and the community take care of these kids and really try to help in these times. to be frank ukrainians everyday day now -- horrible events, just two nights ago i was hiding in shelter because the artillery
7:25 am
was 100 meters from me. everything was on fire and the building was on fire. if they only had 150 meters from our building, i would not be talking to you. this is a horrible experience for all ukrainians. >> it is and it is just -- you know when we talk about day 30 of an invasion, how many hundreds of thousands of people have left that country and millions. it is almost difficult to break it down to individuals, men, women and children who just a month ago living completely different lives. how are you and your family coping with this? >> it is difficult to talk about my family. they are starting to make to where we are in the recent days. a week ago, they started shooting ukrainian protesters
7:26 am
that did not have any weapons. right now many people in kherson have food shortages and experiencing shelling in the villages and in kherson itself. my father wakes u trying to find water or potatoes. the russians coming to some people which they have in the least -- they had come to a family. they came and said their daughter is a threat to the russian federation and he mentioned how i am worried about my parents i know i was close to president zelenskyy and they hate him. if i am a threat to the russian federation, what they must experience? i have decided to leave kyiv because my intelligence sources
7:27 am
told me that russians will try to use chemical weapons on kyiv in the next 12 years. i think it is difficult to make because ukrainian have a lot of air defense system. at the same time we understand that russians are unstoppable. they definitely feel that ukraine fights very well so they'll try to go to another level and try something different. so kyiv is almost down to a lot of check points and ukrainians have been fighting but it is never enough to think what putin will think of the next step. >> julia, repeat to me, you said intelligence has told you that the russians may indeed be about to use -- can you tell me about that? >> yes, actually before the war, i was listening to sources of intelligence and that's why i think i was more prepared to seek for invasion.
7:28 am
the war they are telling me that russians will use chemical weapons in the next 12 days on kyiv. i just want to tell that it is impossible to scare us with these types of weapons. in the condition of the president, he'll be hurt. a lot of people in the capital and it is difficult to make because we have air defense systems and we are supported by the western partners but at the same time we know that russians will try to do this. >> julia mendez, thank you so much for being with us. i so appreciate your time. you are watching "jose diaz-balart reports" on msnbc. we'll be right back. reports" on. we'll be right back. be known. yeah, hi. instead of letting passengers wrap their arms around us, could we put little handles on our jackets?

according to the person familiar of the investigation. cbs and "the washington post" obtained copies of the images. let's go quickly and we'll continue this conversation. i want to go back to poland, there you see the president entering the hall. let's listen in a little bit.

7:36 am
>> talk about an unexpected guest at lunch, huh? president biden in poland right now meeting the 82nd airborne. that's stationed there in poland. beef up of the presence of american troops in nato country. >> joining us now is our capital hill correspondent garret haake. we were talking about the text messages that virginia thomas, the conservative activist married justice judge clarence
7:37 am
from november to january of this year. what do the messages say? what do we know what happens next? >> these are messages that were turned over by mark meadows to the committee late last year, they have been in possession of them for some time. it took place in a period of time from right around the election to january 6th. one of the first messages came after the network had called the election for joe biden and calling mark meadows to keep up the fight, this is one of the greatest heist in history. mark meadows talking about this in terms of a fight of good verses evil. i think there is a relatively minor chance of that.
7:38 am
the bigger question here i think is what does justice thomas do going forward. there is conflict of interest rules exist in the court for the entire honor system whether justice thomas decides to sit for cases that may involved the election or january 6th may be up to him. now that we have seen his wife in back and forth conversations with high levels at the white house about this effort of stop the steal of the 2020 election. >> thank you garret haake. we are having information that justice thomas had been in the hospital with flu-like feelings, he was discharged from the hospital earlier. today also joe manchin from west virginia announced he'll support the nomination of judge
7:39 am
ketanji brown jackson to the highest court. last night mitch mcconnell formally declared he'll not support her nomination. joining us now is senator of hawaii, senator hirono. easter recess is couple weeks ago, democrats are hoping for a confirmation by then. what will happen? >> the way it is shaping up that we may not get a single republican to vote but i hope that won't be the case on the floor. she's so well qualified and i know the republicans had a hard time trying to figure out a way to attack her. their attacks fell flat as far as i am concerned. >> senator, how important is a bipartisan vote? >> these days that's not how a
7:40 am
lot of the nominees are getting to their lifetime appointments. much as i would like to have bipartisan support for someone qualified with respected with a broad support from the political spectrum. it is the republicans for political reasons want to support her, we'll move forward, we'll put this person on the court because she will make a huge difference to millions of people to our country. a representation for black women for the first time in the court means a lot to a lot of people. >> senator, are you concerned of any conflict of interests may be presented with justice thomas on the bench in dealing with january 6th issues? >> of course. these are consequential decisions anything relating to
7:41 am
the election or january 6th or documents, yes, and note that there is no code of conduct that applies to supreme court justices. they should adopt one. i will sign a bill that'll create a code of conduct for the supreme court justices. this is an example of why a clear code of conduct is necessary for every member for the judiciary member including the supreme court. we know that justice thomas was alone on a request for document presentation and he said no, he does not think those documents should be disclosed. >> senator, i want to talk about what's going on in ukraine and certainly the country's half border with ukraine. president biden is in nato. as russia's invasion of ukraine
7:42 am
hits one-month mark. if there is no end in sight, what more do you think the u.s. do for the people of ukraine? >> the president's recent announcement that we would take 100,000 refugees and continue to focus on increasing sanctions and not to mention that, we need to provide resources and armaments and it is daily focus for our country and the good thing is we know that he did a good job having our nato partners and such as japan coming together to impose sanctions. that needs to continue. >> i was struck with the former press secretary, julia mendez,
7:43 am
that was on the program five minutes ago she told us of the same sources before the invasion of the war in russia now telling her that the russians may very well use chemical weapons on the capital kyiv the next 12 days. if the russians do use chemical weapons in kyiv or anywhere else in ukraine, do you think that should change the united states and the ally positions of further assistance to ukraine and some boots on the ground? >> i don't know about boots on the ground because we have been trying not to escalate this thing into another world war. that would be horrible for not just our country but basically the world. we are at that point, i think that we are probably going to figure out how we can ra
7:44 am
rachet sanctions even more. it is hard to tell. the rest of the world is going to keep up the pressure. >> senator hirono, thank you very much for being with us. i very much appreciate your time. >> thank you, you are welcome. take care. >> like wise. >> coming up, we'll go to kabul where afghan girls are being asked to turn away from school. asked to turn away from school

>> it was unannounced and planned to this visit at the barber shop and clearly enjoying his time with the troops. i want to talk about something that's deeply troubling and it is kind of a pattern we have been seeing.
7:50 am
thousands of girls in afghanistan promised by the taliban they can begin their studies. schools started on wednesday. this is the first time since the august take over. taliban officials turned all the girls away. take a look at their reaction. take a look at their reaction. not being permitted to study the taliban says it didn't reneg on its promise, it was a matter of deciding on uniforms. the reality is the students are not allowed in class what's it like for women and girls in afghanistan right now
7:51 am
>> right now it's a very difficult time for women and they have been promised one thing they have been waiting for for the past seven months and their whole hope and aspirations for going to school just was taken away in a matter of half an hour. they actually went to school around 6:30, 7:00 in the morning and around 8:00 they were told that the schools are closed and they should go home. so that was the length of their whole hope and what they were waiting for for all of these seven months. the schools are closed again for the girls. >> school was set to start on wednesday, just a couple of days ago. are they still closed for girls? >> yes, they are. the schools are closed. the schools are closed. they didn't open. they did not open that day and they did not open the day after and then after that it was
7:52 am
friday, which is today. so, you know, tomorrow is the beginning of the week but we haven't heard anything and i don't think they're going to open it tomorrow. so here we are. the schools are closed. >> you and i have spoken about this and it just breaks your heart to see the reality. this is something that almost could have been expected. >> i will say that it doesn't necessarily come as a big surprise the taliban have done this.al i think that the shock here was more so that they were told to go. the girls showed up to their schools and then they were turned away. if anything, this shows how fractured and inept the taliban government really are. you have the minister of edge education telling these girls to go to school and you had a veto
7:53 am
from someone above him telling these girls to go home. thiso shows this isn't the taliban 2.0 that everyone has been trying to imply that they are. second, this shows that thet taliban leadership is completely fractured. there is no real governmental control that they want to allude to. it shows they're divided within themselves and, if anything, this is going to be terrible, completely terrible for the afghan people. this is not necessarily a great thing that the taliban government cannot function. because, if anything, this means muchan more pain and agony for e afghan people. >> it's almost as if when there's a fracture, there's lack of communication, et cetera, et cetera. the ones that suffer are the girlsff and the women and peopl who are simply trying to exist in a country where being a woman, being a girl, is almost like condemnation to be a second class citizen. this is also just a part of a much bigger, broader problem.
7:54 am
the u.n. says 23 million afghans face hunger. what does that look like on the ground? >>n on the ground it looks reay terrible. first of all, the number of people that are actually begging for money has become more than triple. it's just they're all over the place. and all of the bake shops where they'reak baking the bread, the used to be maybe one or two, sometimes a woman sitting there which actually was the part of the last government, you would not even seenm one or two peopl there. but sometimes you would. now there is a line of about 15 to 20 women in front of each one of those shops that are sitting on the ground and waiting for the people when they do buy their own bread to buy one for these women to take it home. so this is like in the same way
7:55 am
the number of women that they are coming to me every day to help them and give them money and that i get from donations from other people that they send money to me and i distribute it to them, it's unbelievable. and these women are not all of them uneducated women. most of them are women that they've had jobs, they are educated women. they are women that they have gone to school. there were school teachers, there were people this worked in the government offices. now they don't have anything. they don't have food. their children are hungry. so they come and they say, you know, my kids haven't eaten for three days, for god sakes. forr three days your children haven't eaten and then, you know, i have to give them some money and help them to go and buy something. but then when i do that, that's only going to take care of a problem only for about, i don't
