Putin has said several times that he will use nukes if Russian sovereignty is threatened. There is no ambiguity.
And the west will use their nuclear weapons on Russia.
That’s why we need to use ours against him now as a preventive strike
@@birds_are_really_fierce2226 you need medical help
@@simeonabere and if both use it is the end of the word there is enough nuke to send the word back to the stone age
@@birds_are_really_fierce2226 doesn’t work like that . There is no first strike capability. They would be alerted of a launch and they will launch . MAD
What a weird exchange
"HE SAYS WHAT HE MEANS". REALLY??? He said he would NOT invade Ukraine.
Could this war go nuclear ? Yes there is a risk as never.
You would be surprised how quick things can escalate when a lot of egos/pride are involved...
@@ArgStyleRlz so true.
A comment that didn't age well
@@gkagara how?
A " veiled" threat? No, he means what he says. Laughing shameful here and childish. Possibly these " men" were not ever in war? What's funny?
Dumb and immature guys
Nothing funny about this ..
It's veiled because he could also mean biochemical weapons.. and still not exclude the nukes..
@@infinity3834 yeah, I agree there isn't anything about this that's "funny".
“I didn’t demonize Putin!”
Everyone: oh boy
Fuuuuuuudge
Who have been invading Russia, Japan, Palestine, Indigenous America, India, Aotearoa, Australia, etc?
@@bussov Yes Comrade, there will be fudge at questioning
West has always kept Indian Subcontinent and Middle east in terrorised state.. now that the guns are pointing towards them.. i say well done Vitamin Protein
@@basilicaangela4638 Who has been invading Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Finland, Germany, Poland, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Georgia, Ukraine, Siberia, Chechnya?
Wtf is this? Are you guys trying to communicating information to your viewers or running a reality tv show?
For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Don't tell me this is a reference to Newton's third law
@@cek0792 Are you a little slow? It means, that if he sends nukes, they will also be sent back!
Your right sir!!
I found it is extreamly inappropriate for this host laugh loud like this.
Video of the war in Ukraine.
I try to upload videos that are not on the news. Thank you all for supporting Ukraine.
Do we still have the 4min warning??
Is this reporter on drugs or something?
Gay
Why even go to the trouble and expense of war ( thousand of lives lost, billions worth of destruction, etc.), instead, put all the resources, brain power, and technology to eliminate the source of the problem.
POLITICIANS???
I agree.
@@alirott2271 corporate puppets no politician
Human is the problem, we should have rather evolved from other peaceful species, instead of instinctively violent apes
The US maybe
This host is a joke. Complete disrespect of the situation at hand
France has colonized and still colonizing west Africa. Is that the behavior of a Democratic society?
Why are you guys talking about nuclear weapons??? What's wrong with you guys ... war is not fun and you guys are laughing about it .
Its like the movie dont look up
Instead of insulting Putin or calling him unreasonable or crazy, we should be having a dialogue. I am glad that the two sides are at least indirectly talking, but there needs to be more... One thing that worked well in the Cuban Missile Crisis was that Robert Kennedy ignored the bellicose statements coming from Russia and just pointed out statements they liked or agreed with and commented on those. Responding negatively or talking about what we don't like is easy to do, but doesn't help build bridges and easing tensions ,which is what we need right now.
Nothing will be solved by bunch of liars east or west:
The king of the north (Russia) he will plant his royal tents between the grand sea and the holy mountain of Decoration; and he will come all the way to his end, and there will be no helper for him
Царь северный (России) поставит он свои царские шатры между великим морем и святой горой Украшения; и дойдет он до конца своего, и не будет у него помощника
This guy would say different things about Putin if he wasn’t in Moscow I promise you
No
Break out the nukes...let's get this on.
I Don't know more about nuclear weapons can someone explain me like how do they fire nuclear bombs I mean do they carry by airplane and drop it like in Hiroshima or they just press the button and it goes directly from Russia to other countries??
The aircraft carrier, while still an option, is largely outdated as it risks being shot down or otherwise being deterred en route to its target. The modern option is ICBM, ot intercontinental ballistic missiles that are fired from set points and directed over long distances to strike targets. I recommend reading up on both subjects for a more comprehensive explanation.
also they are launched from submarines, that could be lurking anywhere.....
Yes, it is. Its sad
I'd like journalists to explain what went wrong during the negotiations. Biden kept saying “We are not going to war in Ukraine.” Why would he then not readily rule out NATO membership for Ukraine ? NATO expansion is the only problem and the US created that problem. France & Germany should leave NATO and develop a parallel diplomatie with Russia.
I agree that NATO doesn’t work, since all EU left at the mercy of the people of Ukraine, and I also remind you that Russia is not a reliable partner, they say one thing and do another, an example with Ukraine. I know this for sure, I grew up in Russia
NATO should learn from America's mistakes in the Middle East, Afghanistan and Libya
@@ngakadaakhlak8314 They don't even acknowledge those as mistakes.
I don't think Putin is using nuclear weapons. If so Russia no longer on planet earth .
like how he said he wasnt planning to invade ukraine?
true, along whit many other countries too. most likely Europe will be dead lands. btw he clearly said regarding using nuclear "we knew that will be martyrs but our enemy will just drop dead"
It’s just too easy to personalize this and make it about individual heads of state, because that allows the real social reasons for these antagonisms to be ignored. A clear-eyes and objective look at the social reality is against the interests of the class that exploits and oppresses us all over the world
So long as a weapon exists, so too will there be people willing to use them. Tyrants in their desperation will often resort to cruel measures.
Why ? It would be good to ask those who instigated it.
I'm NOBODY. My words carry no weight. My views almost everyone is at fault. If only Ukraine would be neutral, NATO & US stop pouring fuel to the fire this event will not happen.
it's not ''veiled"
You're not the only one that has weapons so let's not even talk that let's keep that off the table
Blood on your hands, now there's clear proof ☺️
Karma will take care of you
No, because Ukraine gave up its nuclear weapons.
And you know whose fault is that. US.
What did the english guy say at the beginning that made them laugh so much ?
Are these guys drunk?
Paid for by government
Exhausted
Gay!
Just French, also, because of that, possibly yes.
Yes they’re !! Lol
"Putin is a human being like us.." Really???
Why they're laugh?
Are nukes funny
No war please
Tell that to the US who's been at war since its foundation
@@lucabaki Pretending to be democratic counts as being... better? Lmao.
Aside from that, #NoToWar. What Putin started now in Ukraine is insane.
@@SolntsaSvet Putin save Russian people or azov battalion killing civilian and genocide 15000 killing Russian
Putin stop war in Ukraine
Came for the analysis, stayed for the laughs.
Definitely Yes !!!
2500 Russian soldiers have already lost their lives, because he wants to live out his fantasy of Russian greatness. @4:12
Were do u get these figures from from Ukraine news its just like me saying I killed 10000rusians there is no confirmation of the figures even cnn and other outlets have not reported this on the ground in Ukraine
Ahahah yes of course 1 million dead Russian troops 😂😂😂
You should try applying for the job vacated by the former Iraqi Information Minister.
where did this figure come from? after all, judging by the material on the Internet, less than 100 people have died so far.
Were do u get these figures from ,?
Simply and succinctly answered, "Yes."
Thermobaric or vacuum bombs are also to be inferred from Putin's clear warning...
Francoise if we're you I would prepare my cellar just in case. Politicians are pressing their luck and in turn and chances are that We will get the point of no return!. Anyways you always have good programs !
Get that novachok antidote ready.
The answer is yes for this one you should prepare your bug out bag he is readying the option now
Spicy convo
Other countries must also bear responsibility for Putin's actions and France 24 should cover them as well
@@georgejakobsen5987 2 wrong doesn't make 1 right...if USA is to be punished then punish him..why Ukrainian are suffering ??
Ukrainian could have avoid all this by staying neutral between Russia and West. But I guess they didn't want to as they trusted USA and Europe little too much. Would have been nice if they studied Europe and USA recent history
They did, theyre not part of NATO.
All Putin has done is make NATO countrues put more missiles tanks aircraft in those countrues, its happening now
@@nipponsuxs we can understand giving warmonger character of NATO members,
Invasion was inevitable whether they joined nato or not duma$$
@@manbearpig710 And so Russia should just sit pretty and wait for NATO to expand to its doorstep? Russia has more at stake and they will fight to the end. There's no postponing this war for Russia. It is a war they have to fight to the end! They did the same with Georgia and they won. The same will happen in Ukraine.
Either Russia wins, or they destroy the entire world using nukes. I am for Russia... Stop threatening Russia. If Russia cannot have military presence in Cuba and Venezuela, then NATO cannot have Ukraine on their side too. Simple and fair logic!
Because of West using Ukraine as a shield
Someone tell that reporter that it’s not about him and his friends
Already there's talks from several countries to send in troops and help Ukraine I just hope it's now and no later
will the usa help too
And I hope it never happens or WW3 will be the end of this planet and society.
Putin looks a bit worried. I guess things aren't going as planned.
If Putins uses nuclear weapons he also signs the death warrant of Russia too. Definitely MAD
So is US!
Where was UN when American and NATO attacked Iraq and Afghanistan?
Don't worry France, I am sure Russia will give France a fair shares of their nukes weapons.
Oh, yeah? We have some too, you know and there's nothing anyone can do to intercept any of it.
War is not an option....
probably
Russia dont want nato on near borders. But anyway im really against war. Also Ukraine attacked Donbas for 8 years , the people there were against changes of 2014, they are lives there and they decide how to live.
I also disagree with the Russian government about this Ukranian operation
Something went wrong here
Америка, Великобритания и НАТО не должны были давать Украине ложных надежд.! это откровение для всех, чтобы не быть обманутыми теми, кто дает большие обещания.!!
What about those who claim they’re only doing training exercises?
Laugh while you can! Putin isn't playing around with words like you! His patience has been tested to the limit.
Actually this is no different what happened in 2008, you just didn't pay attention to it. This is consiquenese from that time.
The only thing I cant decide on about Putin. Is wether I should call him Hitler or Stalin.
Thats about the Range of Options I have on him.
Maybe he's the only with Nukes, others don't.
Almost all Russians (except for bots) I've spoken with feel the same way. None of them want war. Many of them have family in the Ukraine.
This isn't "Russia's war" it's Putin's.
that didnt age well.....
His pants are holding his greatest threat. His insecurity of himself in La La land.
This guy has described him very well ,putin is ........I actually fail to get a word to describe him I myself.
I’ll give you that word, that word is “insane”.
Video starts at 6:53
history will repeat itself mark my words!
People around him and himself 'siloviki' It's clear they want Soviet era.. MSC 2007 his speech have lot of clue.
From what I have seen so far the Russian forces are so bad nukes would be their only hope. Slow indecisive no initiative inadequate armor.
Been the case since the times of Kutuzov.
So we don’t believe russia when they say their press free but we believe france just because they say so? Hahaha
His eyes are beautiful
A Brutal truth?
Can ya handle it? It won't be pleasant, are you sure?
If things go "nuclear"
There is but one truth - first movers advantage applies.
Sleep well...
No it is nuclear mutual destruction. Launch of nuclear misiles are detected before misiles leave the atmosphere. The responding party can launch al misiles before the innitiater first misiles detonate above target.
So this is total madness.
It can happen that the other side decides not to retaliate as a last gesture of mercy on humanity and the enemy before being destroyed themselves.
Not retaliate to prevent human extinction.
Having one winner and one loser is better than total annihilation bringing everybody to the stone age or dead.
Putin has become totally paranoid. He has lived in isolation for to long. Surrounded by people who would not dare to disagree with him. He shares the fate of Stalin in his last years.
not true, no matter who strikes 1st there is enough time to retaliate
@@sikkouvol.1996 Yes and no...
Fun fact first 200 of these bad boys striking land and it's over for everyone!
The important part here is hitting land! causes a nuclear winter.
Come to think of it that's another inconvenient truth best kept to yourself.
Striking first MAY limit the capacity of your opponent...it wouldn't be perfect and as I said earlier academic.
...and if a surprise... there may actually be no one there to respond.
(Sadly that doesn't apply to Russia - they have installed an automatic response)
@@thijsjong intercontinental balistic misiles with nuclear warheads can be intercepted
@@tesodjukic4377 The absolute best case scenario is 30% of interception. And this is advertised efficiency not real. US and Russia have about 2000 ICBMs ready to launch. Do you believe so much in SAM systems? I don't
he is dead serious, what else he could do if not that, is more than obvious that's what without a doubt he'll press the bottom.
These guy will will smelt under blazing skies still not understanding that placing nukes near Russian border was not a good idea.
The end is really near
You are behind…..he has JUST said it, because Ukraine is defiying Russia….he has ordered nuclear bombs made ready…..
unchartered what? you forgot iraq, and afghan
Nato should expand its military infrastructure to the outskirts of Moscow.
What about that?
@@georgejakobsen5987 exactly!
When you corner a rabid dog, what do you think the dog will do? Grab a brain.
It had the opportunity once.
Are you on drugs or beaten by a mad dog?
@Gooosfrabaaify frfr
Mind Begs the Question:
If Deploying Weapons,Soldiers
In USA backyard - not Allowed
In Russias backyard - Allowed
Democracy,Imperialism?
If Ukraine is stopping Russia,, what would Nato do to them?
That's why he's threatening to use nukes.
Any nation on earth facing an existential threat has the right to use any and all means necessary to safeguard and defend its territorial integrity and strategic interests; irrespective of all international laws, conventions, morals and ethics. Right and wrong is irrelevant when might is right is the norm.
What do you expect from a man that looks like he's been cloned from a dead shark?
Of course its a veiled threat to use nuclear weapons… 😟
Nice Putin stop NATO occupation and destroyed all country like Afghanistan, Syria, lybia, Iraq and my country Serbia 78 days without international law NATO evil bombing Serbia destroy: Bridge, hospital, RTS television, Train thank Europe on bombs👍
Tell the truth
what an irritating conversation
Cmon ppl what monster/war criminal would really nuke other humans 🙄
Viva Russia Pres. Putin... This is the real action for irresponsible US,UK and NATO for fueling the conflict in Ukraine.
its bigger than one mans ego
when dealing with THE MOTHER OF ALL EVILS >>> one has to be perfectly PREPARED and highly ALERT.
The world knew how the mother of all evils SOLVED THE PROBLEMS OF WAR >>> NUKES 'EM
REMEMBER HIROSHIMA AND NAGASAKI
Who is going to fight when PRESIDENT Zelensky now want to talk to president Putin
QUI?
The problem with this narrative is that there never has been a period of Russian greatness unless we fail to value freedom, opportunity and justice. I for one don't believe ancient Egypt was great. I do believe Rome and Greece were greater civilizations. Pomp, wealth, power, great armies do not make for greatness. I guess the Russian people need to decide are they going to buy into this or are they looking for a new and better Russia. This man has set them back decades.
Rome and Greece had more slaves than free people. By your logic they also weren't great civilizations. Just calling yourself a democracy doesn't make you one.
Putin it is shame to announce nuclear warming, Russia can handle ukrain by military force, Russia the way they attack ukrain was totally wrong, Russia must come with new tactics
You lose too little boy Putin!!! Get to it little boy!!!
The main lesson of the Ukraine war for Americans: we should shift much of the funds we currently spend on conventional forces to anti-ballistic missiles and other forms of nuclear defense. Let's get real--nukes are all Russia has against the US. If Russia’s conventional forces were twice as good as they are, they’d still be half as good as they need to be to give the US a run for its money. As for China, all signs point to its conventional forces being just as much of a paper tiger as Russia's. Realistically speaking, no country’s conventional forces pose a strategic threat to the US. Yet, against nukes the US seems content to remain helpless. The percentage of defense spending allocated to nuclear defense is so low what else can it be called other than wildly irrational and profoundly irresponsible. I’ve read that the US has fewer bunkers than either tiny Albania or tiny Switzerland. It’s as if long ago the US decided that there’s no point in even trying to survive a nuclear war given that whatever we do millions of us will die. If half of us will die, there’s no point in the other half surviving. What kind of nonsense is that?! Why do we make no effort whatsoever to save the tens of millions of American lives that could be saved? We spend astronomical amounts to develop fighter jets so advanced that fighter pilots won’t get shot down, thereby saving tens or hundreds of American lives. So why do we spend almost nothing to save tens of millions of American civilians from incineration and radiation poisoning?!
Russia spends 20% of their Budget on Military The Giver comparison United States spends 10% of the Budget on Military
Percentage is irrelevant, the question ought to be asked is how much are their respected budgets?
God given right? Putin is not the first to assume God given right for greater Russia. There are God chosen people who been assuming that right with the help of the USA and Nato all these years.
Old nukes don't work lol
let's just ignore the events leading up to this
👏👏👏👏👏👏
Those journalists are talk about world cup
