getting those people out of the conflict zone as possible. at the same time, i have to warn they need to be prepared for russian attacks and be prepared to protect civilians from russian soldiers shooting them in their back thank you very much for taking the time to speak. we ll leave it there. unfortunately your audio is not very clear, so apologies to our viewers there. let s reconnect in the coming days and keep in touch. i appreciate it, lesia. still ahead right here, a stark warning from deutsche bank, a major u.s. recession is coming. why they said the federal reserve could be making things worse. that s next.
