We have to be here. It means the same thing and should be accepted, seems to me.

Why not We must be here?

[skstudio]

As far as I know, "need to" and "must/have to" have different connotations and, strictly speaking, are not interchangeable. "Треба" is more like "need to."

I would translate the verbs like this:

• I must - Я повинен
• I have to - Я маю
• I need to - Mені треба/необхідно
