well, first of all, whatever putin says is a lie. second, russia is not in a very good state right now as well. so we are waiting for the sanctions to hit. we do know that things are not so fairy tale y inside russia as well. we hope we will be able to buy the time for russia to collapse. and we hope that the summit on 24th of march when all the leaders of the world will be in and will be discussing, like, how to help ukraine, the decisions will be made to help ukraine because right now when we are showing these terrifying images, terrifying videos, the world is watching them. the world is supporting us. but basically, the world is just watching us being destroyed. and this is the most heartening thing, because what we need right now is a force to fight putin back, because what we need right now are the jets that we
why do you think putin targeted that general in now a lot of generals have already died on battlefield in ukraine now he s going after someone that is there in the homeland. yeah. so fort general died in ukraine right and they ve died because communications breakdown. they went out and they had to strengthen up the russian soldier because morale is so bad and what s happening now is generals are trying to get putin advice on logistical support telling putin kick not sustain this or have the logistical supply line to sustain this fight and javelin and ukraine resistance are basically holding putin back. and so putin is firing general it is he doesn t want to hear any bad news so only people around putin are yes men. they re ones that do whatever he wants because anybody who questions it even if putin suspects that he s being questioned that general is
pushing putin back. the president, this is a quote, this is a strategic failure for russia already. do you think it is a larger strategic failure, and do you think in that speech that the president was calling for regime change, basically signaling the russians and the oligarchs to push putin out? yes with. russia is failing, and a defeat of the russian military in ukraine can make europe safer for generations. but, eric, that was a stunning remark by biden. he said, for god s sakes, putin must not remain. and i think that s unprecedented in u.s./russian diplomatic history. that puts relations in the deep freeze. it was a huge and stunning revelation. absolutely, he did call for regime change. let s see if the state department or white house tries to walk that back later or not. eric: and finally, i mean, in terms of potential regime change and, you know, putin sits 70
that. so we need for nato countries to make the decision. we need to make the decision and give us the fighter jets. we will fly them. we will be pushing putin back. and i, as a politician, i do understand that nobody if wants to take responsibility, that things get buried with moving the jets here and there, transferring them different countries, saying let s wait for couple of day, but we don t have couple of days. we are dying every single day here. people are dying, hundreds in riupol. people are dying of different air force attacks in various cities of ukraine. so every single minute there is a delay, every single minute somebody pays for this delay with their own life. arthel: every single minute someone plays with their own life if there s a delay. kira rudik from the if ukrainian parliament, thank you so much for your powerful words and your
ukraine. we would be prepared to act when the time and if the time comes. again, our actions will not just be limited to economic actions in that situation. up until now, we had heard about the economic threats of nuclear option they call them. this is suggesting they may be willing to go further. is it a big enough threat to hold putin back? a threat alone will not do it. it s nice to hear that, but if the most severe consequence were going to see is through rhetoric or diplomatic memoranda, that is not going to work for putin. the option to put some announcement table, military force, at least hinging to that is good. remember, behind all this we are negotiating and the biden administration had a look for russia to come to the table with a p5+1 iran deal. so they need russia in that pretty got shine on the other side of the ocean that is threatening. we just covered a story where the president signed into law a very good piece of law that says we are going to push back on human lab
