"i don't think you have a soul." he looked at me for a second and smiled back.

i don't think he thinks like that, biden said now, standing next to the president of ukraine zelensky, he's just talking about putinwas clearly wrong a year ago , the evidence of this is here in this room. we stand here together, biden said about putin on to this heroes of the heavenly hundred ukrainian cities also held a tribute and representatives of the ukrainian authorities of local self-government and ordinary ukrainians also honored our heroes and we remember them and will discuss in our studios, of course , the affairs of the maidan in general revolutions of dignity to remember well, for now, the main news of the day as of 15:00, anna will tell you, i 'm melnyk. good afternoon, colleagues. thank you for your work. the news team is working on the most important things in a few moments, in particular , i will tell you about what the russian nazis are planning on the 23rd:

what was the reaction in kyiv today to biden and putin? >> well look, it was a big, big, big deal when joe biden got here on monday morning, he was right here. you could see that scene where you show him walking out from the church is right there, that is st. michaels cathedral and monastery. the area sirens hit right at that moment. now keep this in mind, that air raid siren, it was triggered by a jet that was launched by a russian base in belarus. that jet, hadn't fired a missile, it could've hit keys in 20 minutes. this is advanced technology. the ukrainians do not control the skies, that's the bottom line. the arid air sirens go off all the time. so for the president of the united states to cross the polish border, be in ukraine for ten hours, coming to kyiv to do this, walk in the streets with an air raid siren, see the security around them, that is a really big deal. now the u.s. had informed russia that this is going to happen, so they had so de-conflicted because i do not think russia was looking for an incident with the president o

after his unannounced trip to ukraine and stood side by side with president zelenskyy where biden declared putin is failing as the war nears its one year mark. biden said his trip was important to reaffirm unwavering u.s. support. >> one year ago, the world was bracing for the fall of kyiv. america stands with you, and the world stands with you. >> as part of the trip, biden announced another half million-dollars in assistance for ukraine, and he said more sanctions will be imposed on moscow later this week. and we start with phil mattingly in the polish capital of warsaw. >> for president biden, a dramatic moment, months in the making. >> one year later, kyiv stands and ukraine stands. democracy stands. >> to mark the resilience of a nation and the u.s. support after 361 treacherous and deadly days of war. the first u.s. president to travel to a war zone where u.s. troops were not deployed and did not control the airspace. the acute risks punctuated as the two leaders walked on the streets of kyiv. >> i thought it was critical that there not be any doubt, none whatsoever, about u.s. support for

biden: putin's war of conquest is failing.sia's military has lost half its territory it once occupied. young, talented russians are fleeing by the tens of thousands , not wanting to come back to russia. he thought he could outlast us. i don't think he is thinking that right now. jeremy: strong support, but the ukrainians want more than words. they want more winning weapons. the reality of russian aggression has forced nato leaders, especially president biden, into difficult decisions. the biggest so far may be looming. ukraine doesn't just want weapons that will allow it to survive, it wants to win the war. until now, that is a level of hope -- help resident biden has not been prepared to grant. ukrainians are pressing for a decisive upgrade as soon as possible. time might not be their friend. pres. biden: the cost ukraine has had to bear has been extraordinarily high. the sacrifices has been -- have been far too great. jeremy: ukraine doesn't release casualty figures. not as high as russia's, but still in the tens of thousand

it obscures exactly one thing , and uh, biden lost in this informational duel with vladimir putin . ied to make a masculine politician out of biden, but he is not one. he is an active ten-year-old man is the most. i tried to hmm masculine answer specifically to putin. the point is that they technically really summed up his response speech under the answer by, therefore, all the talk about the fact that alexey alekseevich is here nevertheless. i agree with you that, as it were, accusing us of destroying the security system. this, of course, is ridiculous and strange, because everything was destroyed, but they simply stopped pretending that this system exists, the guys said. we are all taking a pause for now, but you , navalny, have not answered the question. yesterday, when we discussed all this immediately after the message, but we heard it here, let's say we fear that we will be able to defend our interests. just for the simple reason that now we will be forced to spend more and more and more , including on weapons. well, we are really rails. yes, yes, like the phrase that our moder

in the room, photos on the white steppe, here doroshenko can also hang out with this photo of biden, putinso take a photo of football players and talk to them, it will be himself, this is his dream, so i think that it is simply not to a certain extent, it is not two things, it is probably an inadequacy lukashenko because if you imagine that biden will talk to putin and putin is ready to talk to his father, they are ready to talk to each other, why are you here? the last person they need here in this configuration is lukashenko, who is lukashenko? where is this lukash, where is lukashenko, there is no lukashenko there and here lukashenko, let's get out, but the point is that at the same time lukashenko can be used as such a signal flashlight that moscow wants to talk behind america, but i don't really believe in the seriousness of these namibs, well, again, notice that this signal we will talk with baider, but in this configuration, lukashenko is also strange. in this configuration, we are two aggressors, but there is no zelensky. we want to talk about the aggression against ukraine by bide

putin. he delivered his big speech hours before president biden and argued that the west is responsible for war. fred pleitgen reports from moscow. >> reporter: a determined russian leader entering center stage. vladimir putin showing he will not back down from the war in ukraine, calling kyiv's leadership illegitimate. the kyiv regime is essentially alien to the people of ukraine. they are not protecting their own interests but those of their countries. putin squarely blames the west for the conflict even though it was russian forces that invaded a year ago. they claim russia is under assault from the west even more so after joe biden went to kyiv to meet ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy, slowing the u.s.'s resolve to help ukraine stand up to moscow. the elite of the west does not conceal their ambitions, which is to strategically defeat russia, he says. what does that mean? it means to finish us off once and for all while putin praised his army, he acknowledges they need better gear. as progress has been hard to come by and losses mount in the face of stiff ukrainian resistance. sti

as for president putin's response to president biden's speech, we'll have to wait for the morning forut earlier today, putin's spokesman said that putin wouldn't even watch biden speech, but would rely on a summary prepared by his staff. amna? amna: nick schifrin once again in ukraine for us tonight. thank you. vanessa: i'm vanessa ruiz in for stephanie sy, with newshour west, here are the latest headlines. the biden administration formally proposed barring asylum seekers at the southern border -- unless they first ask for asylum in a country they passed through. it's something the trump administration tried, but was blocked in court. the rule is meant to deter border crossingsnce pandemic-era restrictions finally end. secretary of state antony blinken says it's up to iran to end a deadlock over restoring the 2015 nuclear deal. an agreement could curb tehran's nuclear activities in exchange for lifting sanctions. but in greece today, blinken accused iran ostalling talks while advancinits weapons program. >> with regard to the nuclear program the most effective, sustainable way to deal

biden said the u.s. and the west do not want to destroy russia, a claim that putin has repeatedly made. den also said that the war in ukraine has hardened western resolve to defend democracy. and he insisted that nato today is stronger than ever. >> one year into this war, putin no longer doubts the strength of our coalition. but he still doubts our conviction. he doubts our staying power. he doubts our continued support for ukraine. he doubts whether nato can remain unified. but there should be no doubt. our support for ukraine will not waver. nato will not be divided. and we will not tire. brent: that was u.s. president biden there speaking in warsaw, poland. just hours earlier, russian president putin delivered his state of the nation address, and in that address he announced that russia is suspending its last major nuclear disarmament agreement with the united states. the new start treaty commits russia and the u.s. to limiting their stockpile of nuclear warheads. now, that deal is already scheduled to expire in the year 2026. in an address to the nation, vladimir putin also said tha

00] live us, i don't think he thinks like that now, said biden standing next to the president of ukraine zelensky, he is just talking about putin, he was clearly mistaken a year ago, the evidence of this is here in this room we stand here together - said biden about putin, a song and representatives of the ukrainian local government and simple ukrainians also respected our heroes and we remember them and will, of course, discuss maidan affairs in our studios in general, the revolution of dignity to remember well, for now, the main news of the day as of 3:00 p.m. will be told by anna yamalynyk good afternoon colleagues, thank you for your work, the news team continues to work on the most important things in a few moments, in particular , i will tell you about what the russian nazis are planning for february 23:24 , stay with us , i will start with the fact that he unexpectedly arrived unexpectedly left joe biden has already returned to poland the president of the united states today in the morning he secretly flew to warsaw and arrived in kyiv by train, where he already met with volodymyr zelenskyi, first the presidents visited

by the way, what team biden putin's performance with cute? nd anything to answer. he uttered a crazy text with a wild number of reservations. for some reason, warsaw was destroyed in soviet times. but on the other hand, a person cannot find himself on the path. look, therefore, he believes that what is written by someone in text is still able to pronounce it correctly. it's just weird. you see, a separate uncle is presented to unfold the baidan. but this is, but this is a shame biden took off the track, duda drank it, then brought it. and of course, what he said aga care. about the russians. he does not fight himself. well, exactly. let him tell everything she said. this is what the pole prime minister said that he said about the russians, that is, our culture will be closed by sanctions against. yes, just about any citizen of russia is also family members. let the children of the enemies of the people write.

reporter: with the war nearing the one-year mark, russian president vladimir putin addressed his country today before president biden delivers remarks in poland. he's expected to echo his words from kyiv, reaffirming support for ukraine, while condemning russia. >> russia's aim was to wipe ukraine off the map. putin's war of conquest is failing. >> reporter: a sign of solidarity, a conflict with no end in sight. and since the war started, the united states has given ukraine more than $100 billion in aid. >> thank you so much, brie. >>> and the "today" show will have more on this as the world approaches that one-year mark of the invasion of ukraine. nbc news keir simmons will have the latest in the report from moscow coming up at 7:00 right after us here on "today in the bay." >>> 5:09 this morning. we take a live look in san francisco. not as clear as we've been seeing over the past few days. meteorologist kari hall is tracking colder temperatures, but not too cold. we're going to see colder temperatures later this week. >> it's going to continue to get colder and colder as the days go along. it's going to feel much

president biden warned president putin that he can never win the war in ukraine. this was after the russian president used to state of the nation addressed to say he is suspending his country's participation in the nuclear arms reduction treaty with the u.s. our recruit is in warsaw covering the president's visit. oliver, could you happy with me. in terms of the rhetoric, both sides now discussing this nuclear pattern, russia stepping away from it. what do we know, is it absolute that russia will lead the pack -- leave the packet? -- the pact? >> there is a lot of excitement when the word nuclear is bandied around. putin was very clear, this is a suspension, not a withdrawal. what is it it, the nonproliferation agreement, the only one between the united states and russia that limits the number of nuclear arms each nation can have to 1550. it also imposes inspections to make sure there is compliance on these. these were suspended during covid. in january, the united states said russia was not allowing inspectors in. this is more of a signal than a massively meaning

biden's visit a symbol of the most intense polish-american relations in history. so let's see how everything happened around 1 p.m. local time. at the same time, 1,000 km from warsaw in moscow , president putin was finishing his speech , we will also talk about it, but for now , biden and duda spoke to poland in the presidential palace about the security of poland on nato's eastern flank, a year later, the nato bloc is stronger than ever yesterday, we spoke with president zelensky in kyiv and i proudly declare that our support for ukraine remains steadfast and back will get finland in nato and it turned out that sweden is also joining if no jokes, i think if we keep calm and stay focused we will be in a better position than ever we later the delegation went to the royal joe biden made a speech to the poles and ukrainians at the castle there. what was he talking about? we will ask the bbc correspondent diana kuryshko. she was in warsaw listening to the speech of the president of the united states diana. congratulations, what was the most important thing in biden's speech that caught your eye? congratulations , ukraine will never become a victim, and russia will never be a victim. the aggresso

i believe that president biden will not react directly to putin's statement, but somehow indirectly, the value of us president biden's widely announced speech in poland in media. increasingly, they began to perceive how the reaction to the speech of russian president vladimir putin could not but cause concern in the white house, the biden administration went on the defensive. no, the president of the united states does not watch broadcasts from moscow and so on. we didn't plan this speech as a response. this is not a competition in rhetoric, with anyone, and we chose this time to choose this date not because today president putin is speaking in poland and he did not set out that way, he began with the fall of a member of the american delegation. strapa aircraft. these shots. immediately spread across social networks, like the other biden meeting ceremony in warsaw, the american leader seemed to have little understanding of where he was and how he should behave. these frames show that a person is following the biden who tells the us president when he needs to turn and where to go? bide

this was the day that presidents putin and biden have given their competing views of the war in ukrainete of the nation address, vladimir putin defended his full—scale invasion. he blamed the west for provoking the war and escalating it. and crucially, he also pulled russia out of a key nuclear arms control treaty with the united states. meanwhile, president biden — who was in ukraine's capital yesterday — has made a major speech in poland, where he said... ukraine stands tall and free and the west —— the west's support would not waver. tonight, we will be reporting from poland, russia and here in ukraine. we'll hear from our north america editor, sarah smith, who's in warsaw with president biden. our international editor, jeremy bowen, is in the ukrainian capital, kyiv. but we start in moscow, with our russia editor, steve rosenberg. steve. thank you, clive. welcome of the two questions i am asked most often are, what is vladimir putin thinking, what is vladimir putin thinking, what is vladimir putin thinking, what is he planning next in the war in ukraine? today, when the russian pres

caller: i would like to say that both biden and putin started this war. vided could have ended the war -- biden could have ended the war before it began by saying ukraine would not be in nato. russia does not want it -- russia does not want nato missiles in a border country like we do not want missiles in cuba. that was a legitimate concern by russia. ukraine did not qualify to be in nato because it was so corrupt. both putin and biden are making a lot of money off of this war with oil at $80 a barrel. we know that hunter biden is in bed with ukraine making money off oil in the biden family is enriching themselves by prolonging this war and getting us deeper into it when he could have prevented it. all i saw with biden -- he is leading us into world war iii and all you democrats that are so proud of president biden, you will beat your pride when we get bombed. this whole thing is escalating. you have china escalating, you have russia escalating. they are all getting out of our nuclear treaties. russia and china are combining. this is a bad situation. we ha

by the way, your opinion is interesting, and in general , jazzov biden, putin has targets for liquidation do you think? do you think that because our president has been repeatedly attacked and we know it officially, i think absolutely . that is, first of all, we are talking about the logic of terrorists, and for terrorists, the destruction of the leader of any country is a great success at the same time in view of those security measures, that is, the first secrecy was high, that is, no one objectively guessed that even when it was blocked by half of kiev , no one guessed that exactly what would be bytle , there were a lot of options that there could be deputies and there other high-ranking officials, but not exactly the president of the united states, who, in general, for the first time in many years, in principle, as the president of whose position, made a visit to ukraine before that , if i am not mistaken, eh, george was younger, he was only in kyiv, eh. that is, all events were held at the same time, it seems to me that the kremlin was warned as clearly as possible about all these me

joe biden actually asked the question today. he said people were asking when putin did this, would we look the other way? i think he said it so well. would we stand up? would we be strong, as we were? or week as some people predicted? we were strong. you can't shrink from a threat of nuclear weapons and then say oh, any other country on earth that wants to conquer its neighbors the same way that russia did with ukraine, we're too afraid, go right ahead, the fear of nuclear war is too great. >> the issue of misinformation and propaganda is central to this war. america has learned the lessons of history about when you can't conquer people. russia has learned these lessons. they've been in many wars that have lasted a long time, to no great victory. joe biden tried to sort of address some of that, talking to the russian people, saying, we're not coming for you. europe has no interest in controlling russia. do you think those messages get through? >> i think they do, because this is 2023, and it's not 1947. when stalin would say things were almost all that russians hear

as for president putin's response to president biden's speech, we'll have to wait for the morning forut earlier today, putin's spokesman said that putin wouldn't even watch the speech, but would instead rely on a summary of it prepared by his na:ff. na nick schifrin in ukraine nick, thank you. ♪ in the day's other headlines, seekers at the southern border, unless they first ask for asylum in a country they passed through. it's something the trump administration tried, but was blocked in court. the rule is met eranet onc d pandemic-era restrictions finally end. wall street had its worst day in two months, as concerns over interest rates and profits worried investors. the dow jones industrial average lost nearly 700 points, 2%, to close at 33,129. the nasdaq fell 2.5%. the s&p 500 also gave up 2%. secretary of state aony blinken says it's up to iran to end a deadlock over restoring the 2015 nuclear deal. an agreement could curb tehran's nuclear activities in exchange for lifting sanctions. but in greece today, blinken accused iran of stalling talks while advancing itweapons program. >>

new aid to ukraine, but talking and reflecting on what putin thought would happen, and what has been actually happening. this is what president biden said while he was on the ground. >> we know that there is going to be very difficult days and weeks and years ahead, but russia's aim was to wipe ukraine off of the map. putin's conquest is failing. the russia's military has lost half of the area it once occupied. young talented russians are fleeing by the tense of thousands and not wanting to come back to russia. not just fleeing from the military, but fleeing from russia, itself. >> the president weighing in on putin's expectations and what could happen next, but the white house did tell the kremlin that the president was going t ing t, and they did that to deconflict where he was going to be so they could avoid those areas. >> and in terms of what is next, kaitlan, we know that president biden is coming where you are in warsaw, poland, but what is ahead of the president's agenda on this european trip? >> well, we are expecting him to arrive here in a few hours, and it is a 10-hour train ride from kyiv before he can come to warsaw.

europe is ready for this the americans want it in minsk is ready to receive biden himself and organize negotiations between putinen and zelensky statement sounded to the whole world, as they say, we are waiting for the lord's reaction but something tells me frankly against the interests of america. they are preparing militants to organize terrorist attacks in russia. the cis against diplomats of civil servants of the security forces , the russian foreign intelligence service reported this and are discussing a new financial tranche to ukraine in the amount of $ 10 billion, while we are here in minsk and america we are talking not far gone and europe in their peaceful intentions, eight countries have declared their readiness to share french combat vehicles. italy will supply kiev with a new air defense system. germany is ready. even build up production of weapons confused or intimidated there is good advice. listen to the best option of the europeans. these are units with russia here resources there high technologies. and it would be the main policy of the planet americans and chinese. moreover , the friendly atti

biden's speech. the speech lasted half an hour. we carefully looked at putin'sech, listened to it for you and now we will tell you the main to accuse western ukraine of lying and violating the security guarantee for russia. in his speech, putin once again repeated the narrative that a neo-nazi regime reigns in kyiv, while ukraine itself is occupied by the west, and called it a full-scale invasion as a forced measure and as a precautionary measure, repeat it and they didn't start the war and we used force and we use it to stop it we protect the lives of people svoi rodnoi dom ot цел запада безграничность about the bombing of the city, the destruction of civil infrastructure, the number of victims among the civilian population, the occupation of the territory and war crimes in the territories of a separate sovereign state, not a word about historical speculations, they say that ukraine is an ancient russian territory that austria-hungary and poland sought to take from the empire in the xix century-old and yet another fake proclamation about secret laboratories and

here is president biden in poland to putin. >> president biden: never be able to ease people's love of liberty. brutality will never grind down the will of the free and uk ukraine, ukraine will never be a victory for russia much >> lucas: here is russia's president speaking on the same day, part of a two-hour address to his nation. >> what's important is that our relations have degraded, responsibility for that is fully on the united states. they can't be silly people, they want to deliver strategic defeat. regarding this, i have to say russia suspends its participation in the new start treaty. >> lucas: the republican chairman of the house rememberas committee saying all options must be on the table, including deploying nuclear forces, must accelerate efforts to modernize our nuclear system, some date back to the '50s. deploy nuclear weapons in the land, air and sea and u.s. deploys 70% aboard ballistic missile submaen radios. china foreign minister says we do not -- the u.s. should seriously reflect on what it has done, stop fanning the flames and stay true to promoting peace talks a

i'll say zelenskyy, but zelenskyy backed by biden, against putin. of wills, i think, yesterday, the west got stronger. for biden's trip, it showed a more united america, a more united europe than putin ever imagined. that's the real story. these other marjorie taylor greene, you know, whatever. doesn't matter. >> again, charlie sykes, talking about secession, which, of course, we've looked at all the numbers. by the way, not a back bencher. somebody who is responsible for kevin mccarthy's rise. somebody who kevin mccarthy said he would stand next to until the bitter end. said that red states needed to secede from america. of course, this is so laughable because blue states, as we all know, are the donor states, are the states where taxpayers take it on the chin, to take care of districts like marjorie taylor greene's. to take care of districts across texas where ted cruz talks about, you know, secession. not all of texas. there's a lot of texas that actually contributes very well. but look at the dark blue states. alabama, mississippi, louisiana, so

president biden is back in ukraine tonight, preparing for a momentous day tomorrow when he and vladimir putin will be delivering dueling addresses nearly 800 miles apart. president biden traveled under a cloak of secrecy to the capitol this morning, a city russia thought it could capture at the start of the invasion, but kyiv still stands one year into this war. what a dramatic show of solidarity, to see vth biden standing alongside volodymyr zelenskyy with a very audible reminder of the extreme danger that exists around them. the surprise trip coming on the eve of a speech by putin to his nation, attempting to justify a second year of bloodshed. >> putin's war of conquest is failing. he thought he could outlast us. i don't think he's thinking that right now. >> so how will the russian leader respond to president biden only hours from now? we have seeteam coverage coming. in moscow. cat lynn collins is live in warsaw where the president just arrived. sam kylie is joining us from kharkin. let's go to jim sciutto for more. >> wolf, it is a complicated journey from the u.s. capitol to the ukrain

will not tire. >> there was president biden today in poland making it very clear he views the war in ukraine as the decision of one man, russian president vladimir putin. biden used the speech affirming american commitment to ukraine to create a sort of split screen for the history books because also today president putin gave what is saemgs the russian version of the "state of the union" and in that speech putin telegraphed that he is also planning to be in this war for the long haul. putin announced that going forward russian troops will be allowed two-week break from their military service every six months and announced russia will be suspending the last nuclear arms accord between moscow and washington. joining us now is peter baker. he was "the washington post" chief during the rise of putin. i want to read you this analysis published in politico today about the way in which putin is selling this war to the people of russia. basically these days in russia if the president is hard to explain appeal to the past. and it seems like this is putin's strategy here to recall the ghosts of world war ii, to talk about the aggression from outside russia. i

putin chose this war. the west was never planning to attack russia, but my understanding is russian tv didn't air biden's speech. so what did the russian people hear from their president? >> reporter: for president putin, it was an uncompromising and at times, hard to comprehend speech, chris. he used the word, war, a number of times and folks who pay close attention will know that's usual for putin. he calls the invasion of ukraine his special military operation and described this as a war with the west. a war for russia's survival. suppose you could say in that one respect, one word, there was agreement between president biden and putin. the word war. and i suppose you could also say some agreement that this is more now than a conflict over territory. it's a conflict over ideas. but as you rightly suggest, one of the differences in president biden's speech, he spoke about putin directly. about what putin has said, pushing back on the idea that the west started this war as putin alleged. in putin's speech, he never once mentioned president biden or president biden's trip to ukraine yesterday or any of the idea

president biden said he does not see vladimir putin using nuclear weapons despite suspending involvement in an arms treaty. plus, we speak to the ceos of anglo american and wpp as they report earnings. and watch shares as they open. francine: futures are actually gaining on the back of support from asia. it looks like risk on sentiment overall. i wouldn't write home about it because we did have four days of declines. tom: to your point, how much conviction is there in the risk on mood we're seeing? but there is evidence we are snapping four days of losses. nvidia a key catalyst in nasdaq futures. they upgraded guidance, pretty bullish forecast. we will check in on european makers as well on the back of that news. we are looking ahead in the euro zone to inflation data out later this morning to flesh out the picture around the health of this european economy. the spanish ibex currently up 12 points, gain of .1%. let's have a look at how futures are shaping up stateside, with a particular focus on the tech heavy nasdaq, given that bullish forecast by nvidia, they think there will be sales

content, but i think the one thing that the two leaders did it seem to agree on with president biden and president putins war is not ending anytime soon. as president biden departs europe later today, that is sort of a question. what is the endgame here? and you really did not hear the president lay out and a new perspective on that in a speech yesterday, or during his visit to kyiv. what will these negotiations look like? when potentially could they start? the president did commit to providing weapons to ukraine, continuing security assistance to ukraine, but he did describe any new types of weapons -- things like long range missiles or fighter jets. those are the weapons that president zelenskyy says he needs to change the trajectory on the battlefield. instead, president biden says that he will apply new sanctions on russia. he will talk to congress about continuing its support for ukraine. but i think that the big question that is still looming over as president biden lays, is how does this war and? president biden making clear that that won't be anytime soon. paula? >> yeah, that seems to be defini
