This clip is from the March 2, 2022 broadcast.

As a massive Russian military convoy approaches Kyiv while Russia intensifies attacks on civilian infrastructure across Ukraine, "Democracy Now!" gets an update from Andre Kamenshikov, Ukraine director for Nonviolence International in the southern Kyiv suburbs. He says "people are holding out, and I think there is growing confidence that the Russian forces will not be able to take the city." He also says Russian President Putin is using the threat of NATO as propaganda to increase domestic public support of the war, and discusses why he won't be taking up arms as a nonviolent activist.
