winston churchill always said "to jaw-jaw is better than war." i don't know how much credibility he has on this kind of thing. as for the president and his advisers, i talked to a number of them this afternoon. he said that john kerry, the secretary of state, and the president himself are making it clear that our interests in the region are for the freedom of the ukrainian people. their right to self-determination. for the rights of russians, by the way, and russian speakers in the region dealt with peacefully. and for respect for international law. those are things that they plan to pursue. i also think that they know that the right thing to do here is that probably not get into a swearing match or proto military confrontation with vladimir putin. you don't corner the animal. and that's sort of the situation we're in here right now. and they're trying to be cool and to ratchet down the rhetoric because they think that putin has overplayed his hand, and that they think they've got a way to get back, get back at him. the problem that the president

. >> our second lady is maureen morelock. 56 from churchill, tennessee. co-workers begged us to give her a brand new style. let's listen to her story. >> well, we're on spring break. >> whoo! >> well, it's wild over here. and principal sharon, i know you're her boss. so why do you want this for maureen? >> because she wanted it for me. so she looks worse than i do. so that's wonderful. >> maureen, what do you think about that? >> that's just how she treats me. >> i don't think so. all right. principal sharon, what do you think about all of this? >> i think it's wonderful. because this proves to the whole world she looks worse than i do. >> okay. again she said it. >> crazy. sharon is crazy. >> wow. okay. she's here with sharon, rhonda and jane. let's take one last look at maureen before. keep your blindfolds on. >> keep them on, ladies. and bring out the new maureen morelock. >> oh, my gosh! wow. >> all right. ladies, take off your blindfolds. >> you're going to freak out. i'm telling you right now. >> there she is. all righty. >> wow. >> you want to turn

. >> winston churchill said if you're going through hell, just keep going. >> 'he atrying to figure out how to do the other things that he loves, dan and bianna, when he was in rehab he asked how am i going to fly a plane again or ride a bike. he a pilot. they said don't worry, we have attachments for all of that and part of the reason is because sadly all the soldiers coming back from the wars, technology has moved a lot. >> he is a great reporter and we wish him the best and hope he continues. >> very brave. i can't believe that just happened three weeks ago. >> he has a great attitude about it. >> thanks, linzie. >>> new details about a man who dropped a $20 down a drain and wound up trapped underground for two days. we're now hearing the 911 calls from the teens who were shocked to discover a voice coming out of a manhole and being called heroes themselves. abc's frishl franzen has the details. >> reporter: this morning, we are hearing from the oklahoma teen to sky a man trapped in a manhole. jonathan gatlis says the cries came out of nowhere as they were walking home in lawton. >>

the answer of churchill, the answer of the first present, when signing the nader thing of the american president truman said i hope this is just the preparation for european defense initiative, so all these great people were always convinced that should be the union. and what they had in the speeches is little little things. the nationstate, it can to our strategic on this comp if there's one big flaw in how the european system actually works is a nationstate that is the council but it's these overnight sessions would have who ever talking and give the solution, it's transparent to citizens cannot voice, so on and so forth. so that it is a very tricky and i don't go into details but look at european politics. 1.3 been said since signed up for the water initiative which means that water should not be privatized, right? they're sucking this in your why is the european systems into this? because on energy is the same thing. most european citizens are for sustained energy and the whole thing. the lobby is done -- [inaudible] and because these business lobbyists can sew will work both the p

and it was 1945 and it was president roosevelt, and joseph stalin and winston churchill met. then they renege and set up the satellite states and the cold world followed stalin's efforts. and now, coming back to talk about it is former ambassador christopher hill on the phone, and steven cohen, professor emeritus at the princeton and columbia university, and this is where past is a prologue, and i want to start with you, first, ambassador hill. what do we see here that is similar to the cold war days, but without going so far, because there are many differences as well, but is russia, and this is a point that we talked about before trying to set up the old sphere of influence that it had before of the fall of the berlin wall, and before the collapse of the soviet union? >> well, if you live in poland and i have lived there for several years, the polls often say that a russia without ukraine is just russia, but russia with ukraine is somehow a recreation of the soviet union, and these are huge stakes, and you are quite right, it goes back to the waning days of world war ii, bu

off choice in life wherever you are in life to kind of, you know -- i love what winston churchill said, if you're going through hell, just keep going. part of keep going is there's real wisdom in that. here i was in a situation where one of my first thoughts was here i went to japan, went to the fukushima nuclear plant, i felt strongly about getting the the stories out, and i didn't want to lose the opportunity. so i started focusing on my work and it was really an important and good tonic for me. i have to pay the piper later, but it got me through a tough time just by focusing on doing these stories. >> woodruff: and you're a science reporter, so you have been looking at what happened to you closely and you told me you have been getting a lot of advice from people who have heard about this. >> it's interesting -- of course, one of the things you think about in a situation like this in a country like that, would things have been different if it had happened in the u.s., would i still have my arm. i asked my doctor that question and he said probably not because the way this compartment

churchill didn't have much to do with it, right? ever since the classic bully that hitler was is the same kind of bully that putin is. i don't see a lot of difference in style. >> the big difference, think the important difference and the reason why the analogy is far from perfect is that hitler had sort of global aaron aryan premises ideology holocaust all of that built into it you don't see anything like that what putin is doing. putin is aggressive but his goals are sort of traditional within the russian mind set. i think the -- and you mentioned the borders, that's very important. another point where they are similar is that both of these guys are products of collapsed empires who saw the humiliation, hitler after world war i. putin after the cold war. the empires that they had served. >> and they use to galvanize their power by saying to the german people and the russian people i will restore the grandeur of this country. but i think you are making a mistake in the sense that when hitler rose to power and i'm writing a book on

it was here in 1945, and franklin roosevelt and winston churchill and stalin carved up europe after world war ii. the transfer of crimea is expected to be more straightforward as they return to their russian roots. though the rote is five days away, crimea continues to assert it's sovereignty. today, john, all nights were stopped to anywhere except moscow. >>> venezuela's national guard launched yet another assault on the upscale neighborhood of crist boll. the protest has been gripping the country for five weeks. one protester was killed overnight been troops and demonstrators. paul is where the at i government protest first broke out and paul, is it any quieter there tonight? >> good evening, john, it is quite quiet here on the streets for now, but as you mentioned, this has been a flashpoint for the last weeks. there are hotels and apartment buildings, and today, as we arrived here, about six hours ago, was in the middle of an assault by the national guard on these barricades. they smashed through them with troop carriers and moved down the streets and pushed the troops several blocks

>> as i was mentioning to you in the break, i'm in the midst of reading the biography of winston churchilllment of 1938 where all of parliament, all the western powers are fearful of taking a stand against adolf hitler, fearful of war. they lost millions of young men in the battlefields of belgium and france during world war i, they don't want to repeat that. they think to confront hitler at that point in time is to embolden him. it almost seems like we're seeing a repeat of that. >> no doubt. what you're seeing with putin, of course, is an effort to recreate as best he can a failed empire. here is the thing about what you're reading about right now. neville chim berlin comes back from the munich conference and promises peace for our time as we gets off the airplane. the only thing this drama in the ukraine lacks is a neville chamberlin with his umbrella and hat. what putin is doing is not only a threat to ukraine, and it's probably going to separate the country in two. he's not going to stop with crimea. we saw the adventure he did on a pipeline. 11 pipelines go through crimea -- excuse m
