and businesses across the country. the top republican said that a national abortion ban is possible if roe versus wade is overturned. >> in cuba, the death toll continues to climb in the explosion at the havana hotel. >> and we begin with a victory parade in russia. joining us from moscow, is senior international correspondent, we should note that moscow threatens imprison ment. >> we got a lot of symbolism,

and signs from president putip, what he calls the special military operation in ukraine. president putin told the people listening, we are fighting for our motherland and for our futures and blamed the west for the conflict. nato has been supplying ukraine with advanced armorments and referenced the second wofld war. this is a victory day in russia, a day where they mark returnia's part in defeating the nazis. putin wanting to make a link between them, and what would be a victory again. the crowd cheered. invited crowd. we spoke to them. many of them repeated the messages that he had been saying in his speech. that they believe that this is a

fight against facism, they believe that russia will be victorious. 11,000 military marched through red square, and intimidating tanks, even intercontinental missiles. an air display of fighter jets was called off because of the weather. this was a smaller victory day parade than we have seen in previous years. >> today, president putin addressed those who have died on the russian side. >> that is right. in a sense, i suppose you could say this is something of a change of tone in his speech. president putin talk about every last being that is sad for russia. and later in the day, met with the father of a commander killed

in ukraine. he awarded the father on behalf of his son, a star. that father said to president putin, god grant that we no longer lose our family and friends, but victory will still be ours. turn now to ukraine. local officials say russian forces staged a military parade, people were lured to city square for the promises of food. this as president volodymyr zelenskyy promising there will be no victory in ukraine for russian forces. and in warsaw, russian's

ambassador splattered with red paint. on the ground in ukraine, russia continues to ramp up attacks, 60 people are feared dead after ukrainian officials said a missile hit a school. and jill biden is on his way back to the u.s., after her surprise visit to the ukraine. what are things like in ukraine today? >> well, i just interviewed the top american diplomat now in kyiv, she and a handful of

diplomats arrived back in the capital yesterday. to mark victory day for europe. she said it was important that they return. she described their drive back to the capitol. the indiscriminate attacks that happened on ukrainian infrastructure. she was particularly upset about that. and highlighted for her the important of the u.s. diplomatic presence returning to the capital. she said that return was a security decision. it was a decision made by the security staff at the state department, based on their assessment of the situation. as was the decision to seal off the ambassy. while it is a temporary visit for now, she hopes it will be a permanent presence. she is getting a lot more done in terms of in-person meetings.

she met with the mayor of kyiv. and noticed a marked difference, there is only so much you can do over zoom. >> and remember, the visit of jill biden to ukraine, it had an impact. >> absolutely. it was hugely important to ukrainians, on mother's day. the fact that the first lady took the time and the security risk, frankly, to cross into western ukraine, to meet with the first lady of ukraine. she hasn't been seen in person in public, since the ware broke out for her own security situation. she was seen in western ukraine with the first lady, dr. jill biden. they met in person for a private bilateral meeting. followed by a visit to a school

turned shelter, made gifts for mother's day. it was symbolic for them. on such a significant day. >> thank you. i want to start with what one person evacuated had to say that was evacuated. >> they crushed frp our city, it is my city. all historical sites of my city. he smile at me like i am his

friend. i don't feel so. >> the russians crushed that city, they are trying to destroy the history. mariupol continues to be a blood y and difficult place. >> yes, i mean, the invaders, how we call russian proxies, and russian regular forces. they conducted military -- not a military parade. just a parade. a giant 300 meter st. george ribbon, they were marching

through the central streets. days before, using labor force of the locals. starved by them. and forced by them to work for food. just to present this victory may 9th. as our military, regiment and marines and national guard of ukraine is still fighting in the factory. civilians were evacuated. but yesterday, they hold a press conference, they are going to fight until the end. because russia hates them so much they think they would be killed if they surrender.

so, surrendering for them, is not a variant of how to continue. >> the first lady was there. the first lady of the united states was in ukraine this weekend. there was musicians n -- in solidarity. even u2, bono. those are important symbols. >> the fact that nobody wants to

lady. nobody knew where she was before that. >> how are you doing? >> if i visited a therapist ever in my life, he would find a lot of psychological traumas in my mind, i of course that it is hard to live in this world. russia put all of us into this reality show, where real nazis,

fight the nazis, you don't know where the truth s everything is not clear for many people. many people have stockholm syndrome. we don't feel safe at all. my granny, born in 1945, may 9th was a special day for her. she considers herself a child of world war ii. she was born within three months after the war ended. today, she is crying because she -- her world like, doesn't exist anymore because of russia's invague. before february 24th, she saw

our nations, brotherly nations. this politics, and people are not to blame. then, she saw what russians, russian soldiers did in bucha, what they are doing under cover of a place she loved so much. she was a stalinist. she loved stalin, she cried when he died. her world is crushed. >> how has her world vision crushed. now, seeing a repeat in many ways. always a pleasure to see you. >> bringing in retired general ben hodges, he is the chair of

studies, putin said i thought this was an odd, strange, subdued victory day commemoration. there was no declaration of victory, no declaration of general mobilization. no declarations of anything, actually, and what struck me, there was no general, there was speculation he was wounded. there was no mention of him. surely, you would expect to see the chief of the general staff at an event like this. i have not been able to find

foreign minister leveroff. the camera angles would have been controlled by the kremlin. it is is not like -- it had to be intentional. if they were there, they were not shown. i don't think he was there. it feels like, there is an acknowledgment, there is nothing else to do. >> thank you for being with us. >> abortion politics on capitol hill. why democrats are going ahead with a vote they know will fail. >> gas prices, hitting an all-time high this week. why it is hurting more than just drivers.

republicans gain control in wash washington. >> in a world, it is politics, democrats know they don't have the votes, but make it painful for republicans, the women's health protection act, codifies rowe versus wade is likely to come up for a vote this wednesday. it does not have the votes to pass. democrats see the poll numbers, the country by a wide margin, 2 to 1 upholds rowe versus wade. they want to use it in swing states, they can get a leg up on

republican candidate, if they were to come to power, could vote to ban abortion nationwide. >> they are afraid. republicans are afraid. the day after the decision, when they asked mitch mcconnell, are you glad that rowev. wade could be reversed. he talked about the polls. >> now, to mitch mcconnell, the other side, congress can vote to

codify the roe, or outlaw abortion nationwide. nearly all of them support some sort of ban. does it have a vote, mcconnell said he will preserve the 60 vote filibuster. if that sustains itself, it is unlikely to have the votes, some strategists believe they will have a pact. given the protections of roe versus wade
