Ambassador McFaul: U.S. 'Doing The Right Thing On Weapons And Pressure'
Ambassador Michael McFaul joins Andrea Mitchell to assess what the Biden Administration should be doing to increase the impact of sanctions Russia. “Every week there has to be something new, and it has to be fast. I just think the pace of what we're doing is too slow, and every week we have to escalate sanctions,” says McFaul. “Swift is only partial, right, we haven't kicked all the banks out. And there are 6,000 more Russian oligarchs and officials that could be on the individual sanctions list.”

At a secret location in Ukrainian city of Lviv, the windows taped up to ward off unwanted attention, underground hobbyists improvise deadly drones bound for the front line of the war against Russia.
On a cluttered table the X-shaped frame of one drone stands among bundles of plastic propellers and sachets of minuscule screws. Soon it will take flight with its payload: a wine bottle-sized antitank grenade designed to plunge on Russian armour.
Two other drones are already affixed with quad propellers, their squat bodies gaping with miniature bomb bays to rain explosives on Russian infantry challenging Ukrainian defenders to the north and east.
One more — the shape of a stealth bomber, the size of a bird of prey — will conduct reconnaissance missions for artillery squads, spotting targets and marking them for incoming fire.
