>> reporter: so we attended services this morning at an orthodox cathedral here in warsaw where some local priests said they have seen an influx of ukrainians at the church, a church for everyone. they have come there. the focus this morning being together on the holiest day on their calendar but the war in ukraine is never far from top of mind. on this orthodox easter morning, faith in many forms. >> this day is very, you know, hopeful. we hope that this situation will be over soon. so we are hoping, hoping for the best, for our future and praying. >> reporter: the cathedral of saints mary mag la dean welcomes christians from across europe why it is a haven for those fleeing the war in ukraine. she said she misses her husband a surgeon in kyiv to treat the wounded. she hopes that they will be together again. one of the local priests said the number of ukrainians at this church increased dramatically. about 80% he says are refugees. ukrainian flags and colors on display. baskets of food waiting to be blessed proudly draped in yellow and blue. daria a student says easter should be celebrated together, a symbol of unity. victor, a political refugee from belarus, agrees. it shows that all people are brothers he tells me. all. easter traditions offer both comfort and a sobering reminder of how much life has changed. >> i can say this without tears from my eyes because it is just -- i couldn't imagine that it would be happen. it is just awful. >> reporter: oiryna and sons arrived in warsaw from lviv. 12-year-old yuri said he is glad to be in poland. >> it is dangerous to leave because every time a bomb can fall on the house. >> reporter: he is confident he'll go home one day. faith in the future of ukraine as strong as the faith that brings them here today. pamela, what we also heard from the refugees was gratitude. they every so grateful for the generosity that they have found since arriving in poland but to go back and go home an older woman described the bodies when she was able to leave on a bus and said i'll believe i'll go home but finished by saying when, when. it is a question of course no one can yet answer. >> no, no. it was interesting. i was speaking to senator roy blunt earlier and said that a lot of people were going back in to ukraine so while some are feeling it's too unsafe others are going back into the country. such an interesting dynamic. erica hill, thank you so much. a few weeks ago we introduced you to popular ukrainian musicians separated by war. her husband stayed behind to fight. >> when our wives go to safety with the children we can fight bravely. so thank you, wietty, for doing this and i want to say thank you for a lot of ukrainian wives which now taking response and tries to do all the best for the kids. while ukrainian soldiers are fighting. >> we wanted to check in and see how they every doing now. she is in new york. he is in kharkiv. i'm so glad you're doing well. you have been there in the thick of it in ukraine. the fights has raged on with no break for the holy day. how's it been for you and the s soldiers since we last spoke in. >> thank you for calling me. it is very important for me. now it is easter day in ukraine. just now like few seconds ago the russians have bombed the car can i have. the city where i am situated. it was also 40 minutes ago the same. so they have no god in their hearts. they are telling about like, the holidays of light, like they try to tell about something about christ. but it's not true. they continue to bomb our cities. during the holidays. during this easter days and it is not stopping them. so what's happening now. and also, you know, when we were talking like maybe two weeks ago i was in kyiv but now i'm in kharkiv in the east of ukraine and we with the supporting ukrainian armed forces to resist russian fire. what we are doing now and it is night in kharkiv. if i will replace my phone a little bit closer to the street you can hear like how it sounds now. so russians continues to bomb kharkiv. >> what is that like for you to hear your husband talk about the fact that there are russian bombs going on not far from where he is right now? must be terrifying. >> hello, everybody. we was talk with taras the day i know about this where he said to you and of course i'm just waiting for a good day. that he called to me and say you can come back home with kids. and of course, all our family every day we waiting for this calling. and we're waiting to finish this. i don't know how to name this. what is the name of this situation? because it is not war. it's terrorism. it is not war. it is terrorism. because we just protect. we protect it. and we have no evil in our hearts. and it's terrorism. and all world help us but it's too little. we see. we see it's too -- it's too big plans, putin plans. for ukraine. about ukraine. he want to take ukraine. but it's so hard to understand. we have so little country with so little and so big russia. just like a big man and little baby. and big man just pushing little baby in all world looking. to this. and how -- i don't know. just we must to take this big man and go -- go back. >> yeah. >> i don't know what to do. i think close, embargo. what we can do? we need to do. we pray about it. please. >> yeah. i know that the world is praying for ukrainians and it is just horrific. all around the world to see what is happening there. taras, president zelenskyy said there's a visit from american high ranking american officials in kyiv. is that meaningful for you doing the fighting? for the people on the ground to have u.s. officials, u.s. secretary of state and defense secretary to be there on the ground and do you hope that president biden would visit, too? >> you know, it is so important for us that american government and the american people are supporting us. it's very important. you should know it. you should hear it. the small but brave country can fight, of course, without support of american people, of american -- and you know, i want to say a little story about the support of american people. you know, our son was born in america. he is a citizen. he is american citizen. and it is like so pleasing for us. just a little story. so i wrote to george -- an american citizen in facebook. what it's mainly connection in social media. i wrote him and like wrote him and say that, you know, man, my wife now here, now there in america and she needs support. she wants to sing. and this man, the george, he is like an owner of architect musician academy and he said, of course, man, of course i will help her and i will help your kids. and now, you know, she has an opportunity to sing what is -- what she doing best to sing in this academy and our kids have an opportunity to teach the best guitar and drums and not to stop to develop the skills and to continue to do this. so you know, the big support, it consists from small steps. from small steps of everybody and i want to thank -- i want to say thank you for every american man and woman who support ukrainians. it is so important for us that the small steps give us power to resist and to fight for the same values for us, for ukrainians like for american people. so it is -- it is very pleasing story for us. i wanted to tell you about this. people helps people. >> that's a beautiful story. every time you have been on the show you have been so grateful. you have expressed thanks and gratitude to americans for their help. olena, thank you. it is great to have you both on. be safe and look forward to having you back on the show soon. thank you. >> thank you. >> thank you. vladimir putin putting menacing spin on the test of a new intercontinental ballistic missile saying tbd deliver nuclear warheads to the united states and should give thought to anyone trying to threaten russia. phil mudd joins me now. vladimir putin made thinly veiled threats before about using nuclear weapons. what do you make of this? a sign to move closer or dangerous bluster? >> i would go more in the later category. what you do in the white house. let's step back to a few weeks or months ago in the white house saying, how much support do we provide to humanitarian corridors? do you say we are americans and support from world war ii on? humanitarian values in europe and provide an avenue for people to exit that might include an air corridor or do you say we're no afraid of a third rate military power. we have seen that in ukraine. we so afraid of them we won't project american values in ukraine. i think putin sees a vulnera vulner vulnerability in afghanistan and iraq. from the american side you have to say we have to project american values despite the threats. intercede somewhere here. >> the current head of the cia said putin's grip on russia tightened so did the appetite. is he reckless? will things get worse if the world detaches from moscow more? >> i will never disagree with ambassador burns. he is an impressive cia director affiliated with that agency but let's give you a complimentary sp perspective that's simple. here's one thing to think about. how much do alternative views penetrate? if you go into a place like ukraine and president putin, how many advisers say here's a different perspective? putin sidelined potential advisers with a different perspective. the media in russia cannot offer a different perspective and turning on their version of cnn he sees propaganda. he can't see different perspectives from the advise everies and from the media. that means he gets reinforcement of the one view. we were right to go in and we are winning. i think we say he is a crazy guy that did something that won't succeed. he went in and thought it was proper. an adviser said that was the right thing to do. >> all right. thank you so much. >> thanks. also tonight ukraine's president congratulating the president of france on the re-election calling him a true friend of ukraine. macron is projected to have beat marine lepen and said he'll govern for all. >> translator: and i know that for a number of compatriots who chose the far right today, the anger and the discord which brought them to vote for her proje project merits a response. >> lepen conceded victory and said the game is not over. coming up next, extreme measures. china fencing people in to try to contain the covid outbreak in shanghai. if you can't beat them join them. a trump endorse senate candidate. how do you put on a glitzy state dinner or toast without crystal glassware?

>> reporter: right now we know they're trying to sound the alarm and the fact of the matter is the biden administration wants to pick up where they left out before the recess. of course, this is something that could be very difficult simply because while they want the funding to be passed as soon as possible, the administration is also aware that there are a number of republicans and even a few democrats up on capitol hill who would really like to see reinstatement of the trump title 42 policy put in effect when trump was in office that essentially allows the use of public health law in order to expel asylum seekers. biden has said he wants it to go away and it expires next month but there's a push to reinstate it. what the administration is doing now is they are sending up the warning flag if you will talking about the consequences if the covid-19 funding doesn't get passed. we have a graphic. here are some of the consequences. lack of adequate resources for booster shots. the possibility that monoclonal antibody treatments could run out next month. testing supply going forward and impacts to testing. of course in the future. those are some of the consequences and the white house would very much like to see the $10 billion package go through. >> all right. joe johns live from the white house, thank you. still ahead. call it glass gate?

>> it is not enough to cover a state dinner. typically happens in the state dining room seating about 120 or the east room seating more or the tented dinners the obamas had. the historical association said they're looking for 120 settings of crystal. not an immense amount but enough when you go you feel special. not having a glass you could get at a hotel or something. >> i'd be like this is really nice. >> you and i wouldn't know the difference. no offense. this is something that jackie kennedy established in 1963 for a collection of white house decorative arts, china, things left from the previous administration. so something like china is pretty important. melania trump was approached at gifting the crystal and didn't do it in the white house. would have been a nice thing. slovenia has a great glassware and a tie-in. sometimes that happens in the second term but they don't have a signature trump china. so it remains a sketchy situation. want to make a pun. >> this story is full of puns. nice to laugh. this is not like -- >> the history. a legacy as americans in the white house. >> exactly. what a great story why check out the story on cnn.com. great write-up. thank you so much. >> thank you. in about an hour from now the all-private spacex mission to the international space station will begin the live journey home. one central washington county a quarter of all the electricity they generate now goes towards mining bitcoin. up next trying to explain the process that local leaders try to wrap their heads around. >> we understand growing fruit and you see it progress. you don't see the bitcoin. we have to be able to repair the enamel on a daily basis. with pronamel repair toothpaste, we can help actively repair enamel in its weaken state. it's innovative. my go to toothpaste is going to be pronamerepair. so, people can get a free samsung galaxy s22 when they trade in a galaxy, any year any condition. oh i get it. so you can take your old phone, that you've had for 12 years and loved every minute of, and trade it in for something new that suits your life now?
