being with us today. we appreciate it. >> glad to be with you. thank you. and to more on the on going crisis in ukraine with the top u.s. diplomat there. joining me is the u.s. embassy in kyiv. thank you so much for being with us. i know we have a bit of a satellite delay. i'll try to ask short questions and not interrupt. tell us about the nonessential personal still at the embassy, the atmosphere. how the work is going at the embassy. >> well, as you probably know, andrea, we did pull our american embassy diplomat family members back to the united states. but most diplomats are still at the embassy working hard. so, we really haven't changed our poster. we're doing all the work we were before and continue to work closely with ukraine and try to address this challenge that they face.
