and i hope that it is, that it becomes part of its decision-making. but i think at the end of the day, it will be the military assistance, which way is happy to see being increased. and certainly, civic resistance, which i heard ambassador mcfaul speak about as well. let s take that piece by piece. ambassador, you are germany now seeing today is gonna send weapons into ukraine. how significant is that development? it s great. i wish it would have happened before. for all this military assistance, it s gonna be a lot harder to get into the battle lines, and the cities under attack, then it would have been had we done it weeks and months before. but it s the right decision. it s whether ukrainians want. i m in touch with ukrainians every single minute. and you listen to president zelenskyy, he summarized it very clearly, when offered, you know, by the united states a way out of the country. he said, i don t want to write, i need ammunition. that s what they need. military, the big mi
whether they are doing passive acts of civic resistance. they will never submit to vladimir putin. he will be fighting the ukrainians for the rest of his life. and someday, i am confident in predicting that they will win. keir, that brings me to you because obviously not just putin but all of russia is under increasing pressure. the u.n. rights council walking out. we saw that a moment ago on lavrov. putin is an international pariah. increasing reports of russian soldiers, they don t understand why they re being told to do what they re doing. then of course the economic pressure. how is all of this being taken in in moscow, keir? reporter: as you can imagine, we are working as hard as we can with the sources and contacts we do have here in moscow and with the russian government to try to understand exactly who is influencing president putin, who is his inner circle, if you like. i think it s fair to say that
do you expect the same thing to happen here inside ukraine? or do you agree with jonathan, that this is gonna be a much more short-lived, and not accomplished goals that putin set out to gain? i do believe that in the long run, or maybe hopefully in the short run, that president putin will find a major calculation. he will cause a lot of destruction, and death, and horror in the way. but i do think, especially when you see how the world is uniting, it s really in speech inspirational. it s really remarkable the way presidents ellen ski s leading. i get goose bumps, with your introduction of sharing with us what he said. and that s exactly what s needed right now. we can t underestimate the power of civic resistance. and what that means here. so i do agree. first of all, i don t think that president putin or the russian government in general can afford to control ukraine.
