PRAY FOR UKRAINE: 🇺🇦 ua-cam.com/video/X3GEycuI-ZU/v-deo.html 🇺🇦
Under no circumstances should Russia just blindly trust the West. I'm speaking as a British citizen by the way.
@@kavirajanr yes
I agre as Croatian where they help us but (distroy) lol
It whos cald war America attack and same is naw in Ukraine
@@kavirajanr Absolutely!
@@munanana9824 Ofcourse they didnt come to help then for them own interes like many countries more
As a Bulgarian I can say this is not a problem for Russia they don't trust the west, actually they are coming for them to bring the Russian peace.
yup he has been warning for years. since the 2007 speech , he has warned so they cant say they dont know why he has now acted. they dismissed and ignored him all this time and kept expanding so here we are. but u cannot say he dint warn.
it shows how stupid the Russian system is.. if they had a working democracy, nobody would stay in power for 20 years, and totally get out of touch with reality, thinking we are still in the Cold War, and that NATO wants to attack the Russian, this guy is so utterly stupid and evil I cant find words..
Andreas Schärer it show your stupidity to belueve what american and western media says
Andreas Schärer he put putin for yeara on presidency because of his braveness
@@Andruuid Huh? He hasn’t been President the full 20 years. Putin was voted back in, more than once, over the years - either as PM or President. The last election got him 70% of the vote.
Problem is, Russia is also try to expand their own influence in South America, Africa and of course, in other European countries.
They present themselves as the victims but they do EVEN WORSE things than Nato, both domestically and abroad.
So Ukraine knew this for several years and still pressed to join nato?
Yup it's just that the news isn't promoting this stuff..
All they are doing is "we support Ukraine"..
Something is up
@@wildyrift304 "We" support Ukraine, meaning "You" need to support Ukraine or else you are a bad person.
Well the way Putin acts proves Ukraine was right abt wanting to join nato.
Thank you for waking up
He warned us - and we ignored him.
Richtig...
They didn't ignore it. America and NATO intentionality pushed Russia's buttons.
You said it right. No one wanted to listen to him. Now we are faced with the mess amateurist euro politicians created
Also very true
So we should have let Russia dictate the security policy of countries that together have the same population as Russia. How does this make sense?
This conflict was unavoidable.
Finally someone states Russia’s concerns which they have been expressing for years, the West ignored Russia and now they are surprised they acted , how stupid
NATO would no longer exist if Russia had became a fully democratic country,,,it has not ,,so both entities are in conflict or close to it!!!!
@@bryanhead2670 The US had all the ability to convert Russia into a democracy after the fall of the USSR.
@@bryanhead2670so funny.
Yes, Putin the war criminal had "concerns". So what? That doesn't give him any right to terrorize and destroy another nation.
@@stanleeger4711 Very good, I totally agree with you. Powell showed that Iraq had some washing liquid. US was concerned that they are going to use it to wash US soil.
"So what? That doesn't give him any right to terrorize and destroy another nation"
Sometimes, I really admire the American double standard
I am glad to see I am not the only person reviewing Putin's NATO objections from 5 years ago. However, I think I understand the situation better than most. The USA is not run by the political parties we elect, but by the corporations that pay their corporate salaries through "campaign contributions". Corporations have deep pockets, but no heart.
@Aqua Fyre Right you are. I stand corrected.
You're forgetting that Russia invaded Ukraine already in 2014... Of course Ukraine wanted in on NATO...
@Aqua Fyre What country do you live in?
@Aqua Fyre Are you an imperialist? Would you like Russia to come back and take a part of Iran again? Or maybe GB
@Aqua Fyre You didn't answer my question. What do you want and what do you not want?
What do you think about gays for example?
What are your thoughts on climate change?
Will you show your true colors or not?
I think there's a problem in Iran that needs to fixed, do you want me to help?
Imperialism simply means a policy of extending a country's power and influence through colonization, use of military force, or other means. Maybe I should ask if you are a belief enforcer and exporter instead?
Are you afraid to lose control? Do you know how the human mind works? And how you are not usually aware of cognitive biases for example?
If you are willing to converse then why don't you answer my questions. What are you afraid of? Who do you hate and why?
I'm trying to find out where you stand.
Putin said it in 2016.
putin is in the right. the current western narrative and propaganda is disgusting
@@frenchyfries3551 couldn't agree more.. Why is all the world news channels not speaking much about russia opinions .. All they are doing is.. '" we should let the world support Ukraine"'
@@frenchyfries3551 So, you agree with the killings of Ukrainian people?
Most people are just puppets. Same with us westerners. That's why Putin is still on the throne
@@astroman30 you are missing the point! What would US do when Chinese makes an agreement with Mexicans or south americans to put chinese weapons on their nation. If you are finding too hard to believe. Search for Cuban missile crisis.
Here's quick telling of Cuban missile crisis. US and USSR are in cold war. US placed its nuclear weapon in Turkey which happens to be very close to USSR (The Caucasus being under USSR), in turn USSR tried to place nuclear missiles in Cuba who were allies of USSR for them being communists. This was UNACCEPTABLE for US, even though Cuba is a sovereign nation, US THREATENED CUBA AND USSR WITH NUCLEAR WAR. In the end, USSR, removes it's missiles from Cuba and the west removes it from Turkey.
Honestly this is the most resonable comment section on youtube concerning the Russia-Ukraine war, people are speaking objectively
Agree so surprised. About time
Russia and China will invade USA its been prophesied

Cause the media made a sport from this war, where people have to choose a side and make trouble with each other.
The irony of your comment,but you wouldn’t understand! Fools abound.
The commentaries are appalling. Nobody seems to realize the danger that NATO represents to the whole world, These people just want to vent their aggression, but they do not see that it turns into self-aggresion, as there is no winner in a nuclear war, only worldwide desolation.

His concerns were/are very valid. If the shoe were on the other foot, no way and rightfully so, would the USA not feel threatened and react.
Yeah, we understand he feels threatened, but invade a country for it? That’s like Russia making a pact with Mexico, and US felt threatened and decided to invade Mexico. It’s an absurd validation to start war

Honestly, if Russia or china put weapons systems in Mexico or Canada, we would be very concerned and rightly so. Whether or not you agree with his methods, I think we can understand his feelings as to why it is unacceptable to have NATO at the front door.

There is nothing at all brave about sending conscripted soldiers to invade another sovereign country … Putin is sitting safely behind a desk and tall walls back in Russia, whilst young Russian conscripts are killing and dying for him in another country …
The west should have considered Russia's opinions and the threats involved in it..... Not only Putin.... But some US foreign ambassadors too stated that the NATO shouldn't cross the red lines.. But our current NATO leaders took a deaf ear towards it.... And now see what some people said decades back are coming true.... The west should have denied ukraine's request ..
I agree with the US pressure. but....
He says Ukraine is Russia so by his own logic he's killing his own. That's just madness.
@@wildyrift304 No; they should have assisted/joined up the Ukraine, years ago. Putin has used the people in DPR and LPR as pawns; this has been years in the making … And let’s say Russia absorbs Ukraine’s territory; then Russia’s new border will adjoin more existing NATO countries; will he then insist that those sovereign countries not be part of/leave NATO, too … it’s ridiculous. Anyway, there is a good chance he has brought about/accelerated his own downfall … it’s tragic though, all the Russians and Ukrainians and others who will die and be injured before that happens …

Well,........I think the USA and its European partners used Ukraine to weaken Russia. The plan will fail. This event will cause Europe to go its own way and the USA will be weakened. Europe is beholden to Russia for energy, energy which can't be replaced overnight. They didn't go along with the American embargo of Russian oil - it would be like committing suicide. In the meantime, the American middle class suffers and the USA is economically further weakened. It will be like the snowball effect of a giant wad of stupidity.

@@sumguy7716 It is difficult to understand an ethnic group if you don't speak their language and study its history. The USA lost control of Iraq and lost a lot of lives when an idiot (Rumsfeld) decided to disband its army after that infamous American invasion.

Language is intrinsic to the way people think and feel.
This is all about the American Military Industrial Complex.
Check the stock prices of these arms merchants since they invaded Afghanistan:
Northrop Grumman +1,196%
General Dynamics +625%
Lockheed Martin +1,235%
Raytheon +331%
Boeing +975%
As per the Wikipedia article:
In the current era, the military-industrial complex is seen as a core part of American policy-making. The American domestic economy is now tied directly to the success of the MIC which has led to concerns of repression as Cold War-era attitudes are still prevalent among the American public.
"U.S. lawmakers traded an estimated $355 million of stock last year. These were the biggest buyers and sellers." Now they are accused of buying war companies stocks right before the war started. It happens that the US keeps on fueling this conflict and European su**ers after.
Yes. Dont agree with what he has done but Nato have played a part in the current situation.
(Usa) yes more than media shows us. china knows this well and now they gives direct message to usa/biden ‘Let he who tied the bell on the tiger take it off’ and after that call biden didnt say anything. And after that zelensky says " putin we need to meet now" so will see. This is Russia vs Usa. ukraine is just piece of the game. its kind of sad, we always want to help, but seems that we make situation even worse. :D
Russia is really bad to discuss and share thoughts so that we understand. I don’t understand why they have such miserable informant guys. they just wont talk they just kill the man if he does not undestand :D
yep
Yes, NATO has been getting involved by trying to warn the world of what Russia was about to do - and thats a commendable action. NATO officials warned of an impending invasion, weeks before it actually happened. NATO shared their intelligence; saying that Russia was preparing an invasion of Ukraine. As we all know, NATO was right. NATO where talking the truth. Meanwhile Russian officials were lying and saying that "as far as Russia is concerned, there will be no invasion of Ukraine" (Lavrov said something like this). Putin also said that any suggestion that Russia was about to invade Ukraine was "absurd" and that Russia "of course wants peace in Europe". The Russian officials have been lying time and again, while NATO and its allies have been communicating very accurate information. Anyone believing that this war is NATO:s fault needs to take a second look at his/her's sources and really think again.
It seems like those who is still not able to asess this situation properly (those who still do not realise that Russia is the aggressor) are the ones that fall into the trap of discarding the information that the opposite side presents, without even analysing it properly.

Ukraine joining NATO is the biggest and most legitimate reason for this conflict. And it was a deliberate move by both Zelenesky and the US govt. Everyone else, especially the civilians are paying the price, as always.
The Roots of Neo-Nazism in Putin's Russia
The origins of this relationship date back to the late 1990s, when Russia was rocked by a wave of racist violence by neo-Nazi skinhead gangs. After Putin took office in 2000, his regime took advantage of this development in two ways. First, it used the neo-Nazi threat to justify passing anti-extremism legislation, a long-held demand by some Russian liberals. Ultimately, this legislation would serve to prosecute Russian democrats. Second, the Kremlin launched "managed nationalism," an attempt to co-opt and mobilize radical nationalist militants, including neo-Nazis, to counterbalance an emerging anti-Putin coalition of Democrats and the far left. Moving Together, a pro-Putin youth organization notorious for its campaign against postmodern literature, took the first step by reaching out to OB88, the most powerful skinhead gang in Russia. This cooperation expanded after the Orange Revolution in Ukraine in 2004. To shield Russia from contagion of pro-democracy protests, the Kremlin turned Moving Together into a more ambitious project called "Nashi" or "Ours". As part of his preparations for a possible democratic uprising in Russia, Nashi recruited members of football gangs whose subculture overlapped with the neo-Nazi underground. In 2005, Nashi's thugs conducted a series of crackdowns on anti-Putin youth groups. The most violent attack, which left four left-wing activists in hospital, led to the arrest of the attackers. They were released after a visit to the police station by Nikita Ivanov, the Kremlin official who oversaw the regime's loyalist youth organizations. The resulting scandal provoked a reconfiguration of "managed nationalism". While Nashi distanced himself from football gangs, his radical militants defected to two rival Kremlin proxies, the nationalist group Young Russia and the anti-immigration group Locals. These organizations became bridges between the neo-Nazi subculture and the Kremlin.
Nooooo russia is soooo innocent lol.
Educate urself befor u choose a side. Esspecially in war times.
Break up of the USSR in the early 90,s...the agreement was NATO wouldn't expand eastwards...THEY broke the agreement long ago and Putin warned and warned what would happen....US/NATO is forcing the Russian government to react

US gave wapens to Azov neo-Nazi and other Nazi groups in Ukraine in the value of 2.7B$ from 2014 until now, can you imagine that. Just to kill Rusian-Ukrainians, that's why Putin invaded.

The US doesn't like competition. A weak Russia leaves more room for America to call the shots.Two competing superpowers create a dangerous game, and with Russia's struggles it was easy for the US to keep them low.

@@danie1pave132 I couldn't agree with you more. It saddens me that things turned out this way. With the war in Ukraine, Russia is smearing its name and giving Angloamericans reasons to spread the anti Russian sentiment again. Ukraine needs to recognise these foolish games and make a deal with Russia to end this war. China is smirking at a distance and looking for new opportunities right now.
Don’t forget the idea of stealing all natural resources, like they have been doing in Iraq, Afghanistan and etc
There's no competition. Russia has nuclear weapons and so does US. US can't therefore be invaded and neither can Russia. But defence missile facilities in NATO countries near Russia is being checked by Russia often in case they could pose a offensive threat. I live in Sweden and our fear of Russia is not strange at all, Russia has been sending aircraft over Sweden often. That shows to me how different US and Russia is. US offers defence of my country Russia threatens with war. It's not a strange thing that Sweden picks NATO when Russia has their attention elsewhere. We will not give up our rights to pick our nations future because of Russia's constant threats.

@@kevincarbone6831 Pundits here are calling him crazy and saying he's come unhinged. He's been talking about this Ukrainian situation since at least 2014, and then when it comes to a head and he does something, everyone's surprised? He's crazy? Really? I'm no fan of war, but nothing Putin has done has been irrational or unreasoned. We may opine that it's unreasonable and act in opposition, but it's not unreasoned. Let's note that back in 2016, he was talking about countries bowing to US pressure. Did he have a reason to believe that? Well, let's remember when VP Biden told the Ukrainians to fire the anti-corruption prosecutor if they wanted the billion-dollar aid package, and they did so. Putin may have been paying attention. And why do we ask the question whether Putin can afford this foray into Ukraine? The question Putin is likely asking himself is whether he can afford not to.

@@abstractpaniker2285 The Roots of Neo-Nazism in Putin's Russia
The origins of this relationship date back to the late 1990s, when Russia was rocked by a wave of racist violence by neo-Nazi skinhead gangs. After Putin took office in 2000, his regime took advantage of this development in two ways. First, it used the neo-Nazi threat to justify passing anti-extremism legislation, a long-held demand by some Russian liberals. Ultimately, this legislation would serve to prosecute Russian democrats. Second, the Kremlin launched "managed nationalism," an attempt to co-opt and mobilize radical nationalist militants, including neo-Nazis, to counterbalance an emerging anti-Putin coalition of Democrats and the far left. Moving Together, a pro-Putin youth organization notorious for its campaign against postmodern literature, took the first step by reaching out to OB88, the most powerful skinhead gang in Russia. This cooperation expanded after the Orange Revolution in Ukraine in 2004. To shield Russia from contagion of pro-democracy protests, the Kremlin turned Moving Together into a more ambitious project called "Nashi" or "Ours". As part of his preparations for a possible democratic uprising in Russia, Nashi recruited members of football gangs whose subculture overlapped with the neo-Nazi underground. In 2005, Nashi's thugs conducted a series of crackdowns on anti-Putin youth groups. The most violent attack, which left four left-wing activists in hospital, led to the arrest of the attackers. They were released after a visit to the police station by Nikita Ivanov, the Kremlin official who oversaw the regime's loyalist youth organizations. The resulting scandal provoked a reconfiguration of "managed nationalism". While Nashi distanced himself from football gangs, his radical militants defected to two rival Kremlin proxies, the nationalist group Young Russia and the anti-immigration group Locals. These organizations became bridges between the neo-Nazi subculture and the Kremlin.

Out of choice, I would side with the US rather than Putin for obvious reason; i like to speek my mind without fear.
I wish the subtitles were larger to read
Putin : "Sometimes it looks like they need an external enemy to keep in leash and establish discipline in their own, ...". I would add : They need an external enemy to avoid confrontation with their own internal problems, which would lead them to question the capitalist system.
You need stability first before you can tackle capitalism. The codependency of EU/ NATO has brought decades of peace.
What is wrong with capitalism? Which ideological system has brought more prosperity to the majority of people? Unfortunately, I don't know any. Feudalism has failed, and various communist and socialist experiments have failed. So far, capitalism adapts excellently to all changes and provides prosperity to the vast majority. Even in Africa, things are looking up, and in China, too, since they have a free market economy. Politically, of course, China is unfortunately still a dictatorship.
@@NeinDochOhh Capitalism ruined environment, people are sick diabetes, cardio vascular disease and cancers from unhealthy nutrition and the lack of work life balance. Unregulated Capitalism tends to exploit peoples nativity and weaknesses and take advantage of them.
I mean just look at rich people and their miseries, nothing can make them happy or satisfied.
I think living in low level consumption will bring us more happiness than having to many things to entertain us, all of it just things that will break down and become garbage in a few years. Even multi million dollar mansions will turn to dust with time. So, happiness in the sense of community when people can come together and work together for a common goal for the better of everyone and for the betterment of the future of our children. Not every person living in Capitalistic society such as the United States agrees with the way things are.
@@vkrgfan So I live in Germany. Here, capitalism also adapts to ecological conditions. The environment was much more polluted around 1950 than it is today. Green technologies in particular are promoted by free-market companies. And low consumerism is also rather common in Germany. I would not attribute obesity and diabetes directly to capitalism. The eating habits of each individual are a matter of personal responsibility. For example, I eat with 8/16 interval fasting, sugar-free and largely vegetarian in the sense of Clean Eating / Paleo. I also find Work Life Balance good here in Germany. For example, every employee has about 25 days of paid vacation per year, most have Saturdays and Sundays off, and are only allowed to work 8 hours per workday. You really can't complain about that. And as the 4th largest economy, we are not really living in poverty. Our standard of living is among the highest in the world.
@@NeinDochOhh I was referring to the US, because it’s unregulated free market Capitalism almost a predatory nature. There is no corporate responsibility, Big corporations kill small businesses to grow monopolies and they bribe politicians.
I realize Germany is different because it’s much smaller country than US with mixed economy, I imagine you still have universal healthcare and other social programs, decent maternity leave, affordable higher education. Its not the same as in the US.

He had a choice not to invade???? There are 5 NATO countries that border Russia - obviously that's not a concern. China, a nuclear power, also borders Russia and that's not an issue too. Ukraine wants to join European Union and NATO but they have not met all requirements of joining NATO including border concerns with their neighbours. Ukraine was never a threat - they gave up all Russian nukes on their land in 1994 and had a democracy for 30 years. Putin blinked and lost here, more Ukrainian people will have to die and Russian soldiers too (9861 so far per Pravda - Russian News Source). Even if he wins Ukraine he can't keep it. The ongoing guerrilla underground war will continue until Russia tires of the financial cost or the cost of sending body bags back home. Russian people will be affected for generations. All losers, no winners here in this totally senseless war.
Yes he seems eloquent but so what- look at all the corpse's left in his wake.
@@mr17moir95 watch the documentary Ukraine on fire of Oliver Stone, where it says what type of government is currently in Ukraine, so you will get why it happened. Ukraine is not some Poland or China. It’s important to underhand why. And ONLY after you watch the movie, think about such facts like the us biolabs in Ukraine and ukraines demand for nuclear weapons during Munich conference, which had a place just a few days before the invasion. The picture becomes pretty clear and scary.
Many others had warned nato in the past that the continued expansion of nato would only encourage/ force Russia into invading the Ukraine, this fell on deaf ears..
It's been talked about for the past 15 plus year's, a very strange way of peacekeeping
And now Sweden and Finland is considering joining NATO due to Russia's aggression.
Russia is NATO biggest recruiter.
What kind of logic is that?Nato expanded east ,not Russia west,of course Putin was going to react,he warned 10's of times...
@@blaisehanon can you explain what you mean by "expanding east" please?
This interview is more pertinent than ever (hopefully not even more pertinent in another 6 months) but look it shows Putin's thinking about these same issues and the consistency in his/Russia's security concerns. "as soon as a country becomes a member of NATO, it cannot resist AMerica's pressures...sometimes, it looks like they need an external enemy to keep on a leash & establish discipline of their own
indeed, and the dogs at home have been echoing these points in the streets (when being in the streets was permitted).
But, in Russia, nobody can stand up to Putin. That's better?? And, btw, Russia invaded Ukraine. There was no imminent attack coming. Ukraine virtually had no capable military in 2014 when Russia annexed Crimea. Were it not for NATO, Putin would already have recovered all of the former Soviet bloc countries under his dictatorship; that's why he's so frustrated. And with Trump, he came very close to painlessly watching NATO dissolve so he could carry out his agenda of conquest. Trump planned to pull the US out of NATO in his second term, according to Trump's former National Security Adviser, John Bolton. After Trump lost, Putin was seeing his dream of reconstituting the Russian Empire slip through his fingers. So, he's gambled everything on having a swift conquest of Ukraine. But, it has not gone so well, and he may reduce the whole country to rubble to assert dominance over it. At the same time, the EU and NATO have hardened their alliance, and committed to greater unity and arms. Furthermore, the West has heavily sanctioned Russia, and forced it out of a lot of economic integration. Now, Putin has to beg for arms from China. So much for the super power....Putin's conventional army is bogged down, and frankly, a lot of the soldiers probably don't have their heart in this war, realizing they are on the wrong side of history, and morally. Putin should have served his 2 terms and retired, but he just had to remain in power. This is one reason NATO stuck together: they were concerned about Putin's willingness to violate norms, undermine democracy, and to commit atrocities.
Explain why Ukraine has been begging to become a NATO member and has been consistently refused.
@@Jeremy-mc2ut Well, first of all, seeking NATO membership is in the Ukrainian constitution. NATO stipulates that any state applying for membership cannot have a contested border. Obviously, the Donbas has been a conflict zone for 7-8 years. But, more importantly, I think, some members of NATO have not supported membership for Ukraine at this time, probably to avoid inciting Putin. Putin clearly doesn't need an excuse to act out violently now. If he doesn't have a real excuse, he simply invents one.

0:56 is how to understand what reality NATO really is. NATO is an organization of group of countries and functions more like an oligarchy where the interest of each country , that can think independently , must be met in order for NATO to take action. The message that I think Putin is trying to tell here is due to America too much influence on NATO despite each NATO members can think independently to decide whether they want US presence or not each member countries are just following a bandwagon effect where the members will just go along with others without thinking independently and thinking the consequences because how much influence the US has on each member countries they perceive the US as the leader that makes America in control of NATO not in paper or any signed documentation but due to this bandwagon effect.

So sad
True.
Back in 2008 I had a co-worker who questioned why Putin would have sent troops into Georgia. I told him it was because NATO was expanding up to his front door. I do not condone what Putin is doing to Ukraine, but I understand why he invaded. Adding countries to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization that don't even have a coast on that ocean never made any sense to me. Trying to hem in a major nuclear power also seemed foolish.
What an incredibly underdeveloped thought process. Although I do agree with you that Putin feels threatened by NATO expansion, and rightfully so. You, not being able to make sense of new NATO members- for not having a coast on the North Atlantic is just ridiculous. The North Atlantic treaty Organization is the name of a security pact, merely a name haha. It isn't an exclusive club in which members have to have a coast on the North Atlantic as a prerequisite, the treaty of Dunkirk doesn't mean it only applies to the city of Dunkirk does it?. You being focused on the North Atlantic part of the acronym misses the whole point.
For example, Italy and Luxembourg are founding members of NATO, do you know where they are situated?. And if you still stand by your strange "gotcha" logic as a way to delegitimize new members joining NATO without a coast on the North Atlantic Ocean- Ukraine is situated on the Black Sea, The Black Sea is a marginal Mediterranean sea of the Atlantic Ocean. The Atlantic has irregular coasts indented by numerous bays, gulfs and seas. These include the Baltic Sea, Black Sea, Caribbean Sea, Davis Strait, Denmark Strait, part of the Drake Passage, Gulf of Mexico, Labrador Sea, Mediterranean Sea, North Sea, Norwegian Sea, almost all of the Scotia Sea, and other tributary water bodies. So therefore Ukraine applies by playing mental gymnastics to fit your bizarre gripe.
@@user-wb1nz6fq2i the larger point is that Putin is taking a sledgehammer to the Ukraine because US/NATO thinks it can do whatever it wants. You can make whatever theoretical argument you’d like, but it won’t stop the Russian military from leveling Kiev if it doesn’t surrender. And it was all caused by the hubris and insanity of the West.
