volodymyr zelensky giving his opening remarks saying he is grateful for the u.s. support in the face of this russian aggression. also saying something kind of interesting saying that he appreciates the united states' understanding that sanctions which have not been imposed on russia just yet. that sanctions could help bring about a peaceful resolution to this conflict. suggesting if the u.s. were to impose sanctions now on russia preemptively which ukraine has been calling for, for weeks and months now, then that could help bring about an end to the tensions. we obviously was not able to seat vice president's response there. but clearly that is a main topic of conversation between the ukrainian and the american delegations there. what the ukrainians have been asking for more weapons from the americans and from the west. and they've also been asking for financial support, as well as asking u.s. to impose the preemptive sanctions thinking that could actually serve as a deterrent against russia if they are in fact strong enough. kamala harris laid out in detail this

that is volodymyr zelensky, the president of ukraine. he has gone to this conference, a number of european and nato leaders are there, as is kamala harris, they were just moments ago, taking a photograph together. he's out there looking for support. there's actually some concern and criticism about the fact that he's out of the country. people are worried that vladimir putin will take advantage of the fact that the president of ukraine is not in ukraine right now while it is -- while there's a war footing going on. zelensky has said he will return to ukraine today, it's late in the day now, probably 4:15 p.m. in ukraine. so he's going to fly back obviously it's going to be after dark by the time he gets there, but that is the munich security conference, you can see that volodymyr zelensky is making some sort of impassioned plea to those around him right now. we'll keep a very close eye on that. he's also expected to speak in just over an hour. he speaks english clearly. you can see he's there in front of vice president kamala harris so i

it comes after the ukrainian president, volodymyr zelensky, addressed his nation and referred to western intelligence estimates of an imminent russian attack. he said, "they tell us it will be february 16th, we will make it a day of unity." he also said his country wants to solve all issues exclusively through negotiations. tonight, president biden held a phone conversation with borisjohnson to discuss the crisis, and both men agreed there still remained a crucial window for diplomacy. but america has announced it's closing its embassy in the ukrainian capital, kyiv, and relocating to the west of the country. russia has massed around 130,000 troops around ukraine's borders, but president putin still insists he has no plans for an invasion. let's get the latest from our correspondent, sarah rainsford, who's in kyiv for us tonight. sarah. well, clive, there was warnings of a possible russian incursion have really escalated in recent days, so here in ukraine you might expect there to be real tension, a sense of panic, possibly people rushing for the exit, but in fact western embassies have

the us says president biden and his ukrainian counterpart, volodymyr zelensky, have agreed on the need to pursue what they called "diplomacy and deterrence" in response to russia's military build—up on ukraine's borders. the two leaders spoke for almost an hour this afternoon as western allies continue to fear an invasion is imminent. 0ur diplomatic correspondent paul adams is in kyiv. we've got this weird phenomenon of apocalyptic warnings from the west, and this odd sense of calm here in kyiv which persists to this day, even days ahead of something that could be pretty grim. i was talking to a ukrainian writer early on who said that effectively, ukrainians were inoculated against fear and panic back in 2014, when the war in the east of the country erupted — that war has gone on ever since and, if you like, the body politic here in ukraine has been inoculated ever since. and i think people feel that they are used to the cost of war, and they have kind of mentally and psychologically adjusted to it. i think that is psychologically plausible, but i think there are also other reasons

zelensky, about the threat posed by the build—up of russian troops on its border. but had the subject matter changed too? well, let's see what was said after the two leaders had spoken at a press conference following their meeting. translation: thank you to colleagues, journalists. - the prime minister and the president are prepared to answer a couple of questions. bbc, please. just wait for your mic. good afternoon, gentlemen. prime ministerfirst — have you done enough to survive? have you done enough to persuade enough colleagues to rescue your premiership? and, on the issue of ukraine, why should the international community take your diplomacy seriously when you're so preoccupied at home? several newswatch viewers were highly unimpressed by that. one of them was david lewis, and he recorded this video to explain why. with the world apparently on the brink of war between russia and ukraine, did the bbc's correspondent james landale really feel it appropriate to open his questioning of the prime minister at his news conference with the president of ukraine with

zelensky, about the threat posed by the build—up of russian troops on its border. but, had the subject matter changed, too? well, let's see what was said after the two leaders had spoken at a press conference following their meeting. translation: thank you to colleagues, journalists. - the prime minister and the president are prepared to answer a couple of questions. bbc, please. just wait for your mic. good afternoon, gentlemen. prime ministerfirst — have you done enough to survive? have you done enough to persuade enough colleagues to rescue your premiership? and, on the issue of ukraine, why should the international community take your diplomacy seriously when you're so preoccupied at home? several newswatch viewers were highly unimpressed by that. one of them was david lewis, and he recorded this video to explain why. with the world apparently on the brink of war between russia and ukraine, did the bbc's correspondent james landale really feel it appropriate to open his questioning of the prime minister at his news conference with the president of ukraine, wi

when borisjohnson lands in kyiv from downing street he and volodymyr zelensky are expected to discuss more sanctions for russia if it invades, as well as reinforce their commitment to solving this crisis through talks. they play traditional irish music. ok, not something you'd exactly expect to see here. this woman has always been fascinated with irish culture and regularly brings this musical flavour to her home city. so does she feel threatened? i think i do, when i see the news that there might be russian aviation brought into belarus and there's new weapons found in the occupied territories where the pro—russian militia are being armed. it's different, and i'm really worried by that. russia's constantly denied planning an invasion, and says it's still open to talks on its demand nato stops expanding. the us, however, suspects 30,000 more russian troops will arrive in belarus to the north, adding tension to an already tense border. this memorial commemorates the ukrainians who died fighting alongside russians in the second world war. the hope here remains, as ever, that they don'

president joe biden has told volodymyr zelensky he will respond swiftly in the case of the russian invasion this came after the weekend of heightened tension after russia now prepared to invade anytime and could act before the end of the olympics this week and diplomatic efforts are falling flat despite biden and emmanuel macron holding separate phone calls with vladimir putin aimed at deescalation. kyiv's ambassador to the uk has been forced to clarify remarks he made about the nato membership sylvia is joining us from london you managed to speak to him? >> reporter: exactly there has been conflicting messages earlier this morning, rosanna, if ukraine was ready to drop intentions of joining nato. actually i asked the ambassador to the uk and he did clarify that it is still his country's ambition to join the defense alliance let's take a look. >> the suggestion was we had nato constitutions that is the course for us. right now, what we have to do because we are not a member, we cannot expect it we are flexible enough to look for other arrangements what we have and trying to build with brita

. >> as we just mentioned, the ukrainian president, volodymyr zelensky, attended that munich security conference on saturday and he sat down with cnn's christiane amanpour for a lengthy interview. mr. zelensky had some criticism for the sanctions strategy the west is using to try to deter a russian invasion, and he said ukraine cannot remain passive as threats loom. >> translator: we are being told, you have several days and the war will start. i say, okay, then apply the sanctions today. yes, they say, we apply sanctions when the war will happen. i'm saying, fine, but you are telling me that it's 100% that the war will start in a couple of days, then what are you waiting for? we don't need your sanctions after the bombardment will happen and after our country will be fired at or after we will have no borders and after we will have no economy and parts of our country would be occupied. why would we need those sanctions then? the intelligence i trust is my intelligence. i trust ukrainian intelligence, in our territory, who understand what's going on along our bor borders, who have diff

it's a different battlefield and we seen that present excuse me, volodymyr zelensky said they are going to stay and fight we seen similar sentiment from civilians here who are some going underground with these russian bombing campaign said some going to the playstation it like the one behind me lining up and get it as many weapons as they can and those who cannot get weapons, there grabbing knives in building barricades and doing everything they can because the story in the situation is changing by the hour and some hours it appears like the russian troops are being held off the side of the city limits another hours, where the sirens wailed around kyiv and even the gunbattle in the street a senior troops advancing it on the capitol city and so rapidly changing and deteriorating situation in the ukrainian forces are outgunned by the russians the russians have a superior air force and they have tanks and armored vehicles and a variety of troops when he and the border if they need that backup. but they do not have the same resiliency and bravery that we have seen so far of people standing

the call from volodymyr zelensky came an hour after our phone call with biden and vladimir putin with no breakthroughs. with that, jake sullivan says the united states remains on high alert >> we have seen over the course of the past ten days dramatic acceleration in the build up of russianforces and disposition of the forces in such a way that they could launch a military action essentially anytime they could do so this coming week of course, it still awaits the "go" order >> this morning, german chancellor immune system, energy ...even skin. so healthier can look a lot like...you. cvs. healthier happens together. if anyone knows about resilience, it's athletes. but today team usa isn't the only team being put to the test. businesses are facing mountains of their own. and just like our athletes, they're rising to the challenge. relying on the nation's largest gig-speed network and the world-class secure solutions from comcast business. for today's olympic winter games and every day after, we'll be there, keeping businesses ready for what's next. comcast business. powering possibiliti
