Yes, this is still the coronavirus daily podcast..........but we're going to put a pause on bringing you the latest COVID news to temporarily shift our focus to what is arguably the biggest global crisis underway right now---Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
There is seemingly no end in site for Russia's war against Ukraine. As Russian forces step up their attacks against Ukrainian cities, there still hasn't been any establishment of reliable humanitarian corridors for escaping civilians to use.
We'll talk to a woman there who says she got out of her hometown, in a suburb of Kyiv, right after Russian tanks moved in.
The U-S is working with its partners in Europe on a possible ban of Russian oil imports. We'll look into what this will do to already high gas prices here at home. And we'll take the pulse of a very anxious Wall Street.
