Adolf hitler. are those countries who did not participate in the war responsible? the countries who let german forces march throughout europe. does the world carry responsibility for the genocide? yes. yes, it does. what are you asking of president biden? to tell you the truth, long ago i asked president biden for very specific items. he has the list. sean: as i have said, biden cannot put u.s. boots on the ground. president zelenskyy is not asking for that. the only disagreement i might have with him is on the no-fly zone issue. we can get ukraine. by the way, nato countries ought to be stepping up the urgency. so should joe biden. so should all of western europe. he s asking for the weapons so that the ukrainians can defend freedom in their own land. they are not asking for boots on the ground. they need the weapons. they need the ammo. they needed yesterday so they can drive russia out of their
Cold war ended, to get into the world community, and to experience western prosperity, and to have that snuffed away, so that vladimir putin can assuage his ego and have this war with this state that he started really eight years ago. and the horrors are getting out through russia, so, yes, it s a good thing to wake people up, but i really applaud the russians who are so brave in stepping out and standing up and calling this what it is. neil: general, we know that president zelenskyy, i ve spoke with u.s. senators a short time ago, he s frustrated, obviously, about the no-fly zone issue and that we re not going to be policing the skies over ukraine. but he did ask for more aid, more lethal aid, and essentially was saying time is of the essence. that growing impatience and the fact that the administration apparently is trying to cobble together a $10 billion aid
You in the united states government that i need more than what i m getting, what are you expecting and hear and what can that response look like? he will get more than what he s getting right now. just as an example, the u.s. has provided $3 billion of military aid to ukraine since 2014. a billion dollars just in the last year and in congress we are likely to approve an additional 5 to 8 billion dollars of military aid in the next couple of weeks and this is aid that s very, very critical to the ukrainian forces as they battle soviet aircraft, russian tanks, et cetera. we ll do a lot more. i m expecting that when we talk to president zelenskyy at 9:30, he ll talk about the no-fly zone issue and how to do it. we ve done no-fly zones before. we tend to do it in areas where there s not contested airspace. they protect humanitarian
Leaders are prioritizing what they need right now and we ll continue to monitor that and provide whatever assistance we can as well as our nato partners to put an end to this carnage. this is a brutal, unlawful, illegal invasion of a sovereign country and vladimir putin needs to pay a price for it. so still no change of mind on the no-fly zone issue. there s this other issue related in an effort to help ukraine defend its skies from these atrocities. poland offer to transfer their russian-made mig-29 fighter jets. the ukrainians are familiar with those, as opposed to american aircraft. to transfer those migs to their possession so they could have their own no-fly zone. we just heard from john kirby on this issue. take a listen. we stress that we do not support the transfer of aircraft to the ukrainian air force at this time and therefore have no desire to see them in our
