total propaganda. russia has inflicted much higher losses on ukrain than vice versa
@@georgeharding7949 hello Sergei, how is St Petersburg today ?
The DefenSe is actually done by the Ukrainians, even if they are counterattacking now, and passing all Russian fences. Let’s hope the best for them!
@@davidstewart1910He said Ukrainians forces will collapse 8 days ago.
General Breedlove is, I believe correct in all quadrants. The most important point is not to reward Putin with an inch of land gained by Russia since 2014. Not an inch.
That, and Russia will have war reparations to pay.
Breedlove is an idiot. He thinks Ukraine (or the United States) is capable of defeating Russia in Ukraine. Russia is toying with the west, destroying our economies, destroying our militaries, and they will do to Ukraine what they will, regardless of what money, equipment, or even NATO/US troops to Ukraine.
Absolutely. Rather than buy into popular media talking points like most tend to, Breedlove gives what he thinks is happening independently of what others think.
@@quinnjackson9252 Breedlove is simply giving the talking points of the current administration and the defense contractors. He is not thinking independently. He is simply part of the propaganda arm. Russia is destroying Ukraine and to be quite frank, right now their army is stronger than ours. The only thing we have going for us right now is the navy and two great big bodies of water separating us from Russia and/or China.
Give Ukraine whatever they ask for precision long range strikes and air defense.
I hate how the west is playing coy with this whole "should we/shouldn't we", when Ukraine is literally fighting and dying for them.
@@generalmortars7557 Agreed, it's incredibly frustrating to watch. The gloves should have come off after Bucha. The only sensible argument I can think of is that they are trying to escalate slowly and continuously on purpose so that Russian leadership doesn't freak out and make a fatal mistake. I also like to think that the West has been supplying more weapons secretly that the public doesn't know about, like some ATACMs.
@@generalmortars7557 It's all part of shaping Russia.
If NATO could just send in its airforces and troops, it would.
Give them nukes
@@generalmortars7557
Stick to the agreement of Minsk.
Uk/usa nato fascism is the fault here.

This guy was spot on with everything he said. Particularly about rewarding bad behavior in Georgia, we should have responded then like we are now.
They make fools out of themselves and their entire society on a daily basis....first it was "Kyiv in three days" and then all their losses started piling up. And, it's not too late in Georgia!

Thank you Gen. Breedlove!! Finally someone understands the severity of what’s happening in Ukraine since the past 24 hours.
I'd wager he's understood this for a lot longer.

Ha ha. Looks like most western people have been completely brainwashed. Ukraine is losing and losing big chunks of territory to Russia. Bakhmut has fallen. Wake up.
Great interview. She asked insightful questions and allowed time for thoughtful responses. I completely agree with General Breedlove that rewarding bad behaviour merely encourages more bad behaviour.
I completely agree with General Breedlove, that allowing Russia to fire rockets at will from their own territory but then get irritated when Ukraine responds across its borders is utter madness. We are just strapping their hands behind their backs. Instead the restriction should be only military targets. The current restraint is completely crazy!
Our weakness encourages Putin to escalate .
The west has failed dismally to deter Putin .
Ukraine must be given the weapons and the freedom to win and win big.
Seriously! Dress it up in a U.N resolution but free reign to attack military targets when you’re invaded seems like a no brainer.
Maybe so, but the strategy is to make the big scary bear get frustrated and go home. Just handing Ukraine everything at once without any way of ensuring accountability is ludicrous. It's Russia's turn to experience what they made the US go through in Vietnam and Korea.
Ukraine should negotiate. They have no chance. The Russians are too clever and too well armed.
you are mad. Russia is a corrupt weak country led by an idiot and criminal.
Ukraine will show the world how weak Russia is by destroying everything they have in Ukraine
Gen. Breedlove does not beat around the bush.
prob beats around his daughters bush
I thought this was a total hedge: 7:36. I.e. what is your opinion? Uh....my opinion is whatever Ukraine's opinion is.... What kind of answer is that? And then he did the very same thing on the next question. What is the point of asking him any question?
@@emem8516 In democracies, generals do not decide.
@@emem8516- It was the EU and Washington that engineered the coup in 2014 that overthrew a legally-elected government of Ukraine. Russia didn't invade, but Russian-speaking Ukrainians in eastern Ukraine did declare their opposition to the regime imposed by Brussels and Washington to protect themselves from the genocide started by the new Kiev regime.
Amazingly good commentary from General Breedlove. I share your anger sir, an anger I have felt since Western leadership betrayed its promise to protect Ukrainian sovereignty in 2014. Keep up the good fight! There are many of us American citizens, and humans of the world more broadly who agree with you and want you to succeed in convincing our leaderships to stop self-deterring and provide Ukraine with EVERYTHING it needs to achieve victory in a timely and cost-effective manner!
I agree with my homie, Diche
He's speaking out against Russian aggression
And I'm here to say, I'm with him
I share his anger, an anger that's been building since 2014
When Western leadership betrayed its promise to protect Ukrainian sovereignty
Since then, Russia has occupied parts of Ukraine
And LGBT minorities have been disproportionately affected
They've been subjected to violence, discrimination, and persecution
And they've been forced to live in fear
But Diche is not afraid
He's speaking out against injustice
And he's demanding that the world take action
So I'm here to say, we're with you, Diche
We stand with the people of Ukraine
And we will not stand for Russian aggression
We will fight for freedom and equality
For all people, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity
So let's raise our voices together
And let's show the world that we will not be silenced
We will not be intimidated
We will not back down
We will fight for what's right
Until Ukraine is free
@@ellkabylia7241 Ya Poor Wee Alphabet Soup have You got Your Knickers in a Twist
@@harrymcghee282 O great and wise elf, I come to you today to speak of a matter of great importance. I ask you to consider the plight of the LGBT community in Ukraine and Russia.
In Ukraine, the LGBT community is finally starting to be accepted and supported. In 2015, Ukraine passed a law that legalized same-sex marriage. This was a historic moment for the country and for the LGBT community around the world.
In Russia, however, the situation is very different. The Russian government has passed laws that discriminate against LGBT people. These laws make it illegal to promote LGBT equality and to hold public events that support LGBT rights.
As a result of these laws, LGBT people in Russia live in fear. They are afraid to be themselves and to express their love for one another. They are afraid of being harassed, attacked, or even killed.
This is why it is so important that Ukraine supports the LGBT community. Ukraine is showing the world that it is possible to be a modern, progressive country that also respects the rights of LGBT people.
I urge you to use your influence to speak out in support of the LGBT community in Ukraine. Together, we can make a difference and help to create a world where everyone is treated with dignity and respect, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity.
@@harrymcghee282 Well Harry, that was a perfectly reasonable humane request from Mr Wack. How do you respond?
Spot on!
Excellent interview:
- Very knowledgeable and experienced guest invited
- No pressure on the guest to wrap answers and fit them into what the host thinks is "enough time"
- Fluid dialog and progression of questions based on what the guest says (instead of a list of prepared questions that a less experienced host would need)
- The host letting the guest be "the star of the show" - in other words no needy ego to get in the way of conducting an excellent interview
He’s right, Putin doesn’t just want Ukraine, he wants it all. He wants his USSR back, he wants his Peter the Great moment.
Ukraine if he can take it is just the beginning. Read his recent essay describing 🇷🇺 🇺🇦 and 🇧🇾 as being essentially the same, one nation, culture, and identity. He has to be stopped.
Leaving any of Ukraine to 🇷🇺 is not an option. Ukraine must reclaim and retain all of her sovereignty, there is no other option.
And for the money, that was his priority!
Ha ha. Looks like most western people have been completely brainwashed. Ukraine is losing and losing big chunks of territory to Russia. Bakhmut has fallen. Wake up.
There is another option.
The dissolution of Ukraine completely.
And this will probably happen unless Zelenskyy comes to his senses.
Russia has fire control over all of the line.
They have dug in to be on the defensive which is much easier to manage .
Yeah .....nah. M8 .
This has to have been one of the best interviews of the war so far Breedlove is a brilliant military man and as others have said he is spot on in everything in my opinion and add to this he is being interviewed by an intelligent professional journalist who knows how to ask the right questions ,congratulations to the Times for maintaining the standard of Excellence

Slava Russia fae Scotland
NATO out of Ukraine!
@@harrymcghee282 it is important to consider why a hobbit from Scotland should not join the forces of evil against Ukraine but instead fight on Ukraine's side. here are the reasons why aligning with Ukraine would be a better choice for the hobbit from Scotland.
1. Moral Compass: Hobbits, known for their strong sense of morality and loyalty, often uphold principles of peace, friendship, and justice. Joining the forces of evil, aligned against Ukraine, would contradict these inherent values. In contrast, fighting on Ukraine's side aligns with the defense of freedom, justice, and the preservation of innocent lives. The hobbit's compassionate nature would find resonance in supporting the cause of a nation striving for its independence and protecting its people.
2. Common Ground: Despite being from different realms, the hobbit and the people of Ukraine share common ground when it comes to fighting against oppression and tyranny. The hobbit can empathize with Ukraine's struggle to preserve its sovereignty and protect its culture, as hobbits themselves value their way of life and homeland. By joining Ukraine's side, the hobbit can stand in solidarity with a nation fighting for its rights and freedom.
3. Preservation of Peace: Hobbits, known for their love of peace and quiet, would recognize the significance of stability and harmony. Aligning with the forces of evil against Ukraine would contribute to further chaos, suffering, and destruction. Conversely, fighting on Ukraine's side helps preserve peace and stability in the region, allowing the hobbit and the people of Ukraine to live in a world free from the shadows of war and oppression.
4. The Power of Unity: Ukraine's alliance with Alien Rabbis who love Jesus Christ demonstrates the power of unity across diverse backgrounds and beliefs. By joining Ukraine's side, the hobbit can be a part of a coalition that unites different entities, each bringing unique strengths to the fight against the Russian invasion. The hobbit's contribution, however small, can make a difference and inspire others with the message that even the unlikeliest of allies can stand together for a common cause.
5. Legacy and Heroism: Hobbits, despite their modest stature, have a rich history of heroism and bravery. By fighting on Ukraine's side, the hobbit has an opportunity to add to this legacy and become a symbol of resilience, courage, and selflessness. The tales of the hobbit's valor in defending Ukraine would inspire generations to come, reminding them that even the most unexpected individuals can rise to the occasion and make a significant impact.
Ultimately, the decision for the hobbit from Scotland to fight on Ukraine's side is rooted in upholding moral values, finding common ground, preserving peace, embracing unity, and leaving a lasting legacy.
@@bryandimery6509 Russia owns nothing in Ukraine and will be kicked out of the regions they illegally annexed from Ukraine
This man understands the situation completely in Ukraine.
He is so insightful and articulates exactly what we ordinary citizens know the west should provide Ukraine to finish this war.
If Russia is allowed to succeed then Eastern Europe will continue to come under pressure in the future.
Death to all Russia! NO EXCEPTIONS
He has no idear...Ukrainian army is about to be destroyed a second time. There will be no more, then we will see Poland, Romania, perhaps Hungary move into western Ukraine
No, he does not. Russia is sitting with roughly 40,000 KIA while Ukraine has roughly 350,000 KIA (as of late April) and during the last seven days of the Ukrainian offense we have seen over 7,000 Ukrainian dead. Ukraine just lost 4 Leopard 2A6s and several Bradley's today in a blue on blue mishap. Ukraine has yet to breach the line of contact and once they do (which they will) they have to move several miles into Russian controlled territory before hitting the first of the built up Russian defenses. Russian troops are not in disarray and this guy is simply one of the political "Yes" men who are given stars because of their ability to politic and not because of their ability to conduct war. This guy is even crying that Russia changes this to an artillery war. Why would he cry about this? It isn't because Russia is weak. It is because artillery works. Artillery is PART of combined arms!
Another well put together interview from this lass.

@@Lordnumptynous let's hope the Ukraine falls soon 🙏🇷🇺
This was a very informative & highly professional discussion between a very respectful, intelligent & well-prepared journalist (Kate Gerbeau), and a military 'expert' (Ret. Gen. Breedlove) who has compassion for Ukraine & respect for the journalist & audience!👍 FWIW, I have been following events in Ukraine since 2014, and doing so under a microscope since January 2022 (when the likelihood of a full scale escalation by Russia increased substantially). I have very closely followed events on the battlefield, as well as response & analysis from experienced military leaders from Ukraine's allies.🤔With that in mind, let me say this: IMHO, this was Ret. Gen. Breedlove's best interview to date, and I am thrilled that he & other experienced U.S. military leaders(...e.g. Gen. Petraeus..) are now very much on the same page, i.e. in agreement with what has been (IMHO) the best take on the war all along from Ret. Lt. Gen. Ben Hodges.👍The fact that so many experienced, highly-informed, well-spoken U.S.A. military leaders are confidently & strongly voicing the same message re: ATACMS, F-16s...and even more important, expressing complete trust in the proven capabilities & rightful autonomy of AFU leadership/Pres. Zelensky is most encouraging. It is my hope that such a qualified group of experts expressing their focused message will (a) bode well for greater political & material support for Ukraine in 2023 & 2024, and - in-turn, (b) contribute to the short & long-term success for Ukraine, as well as the short & long-term stability of Europe.
Thanks Derek, you said it all.

Well Said by the General and Derek I’m in total agreement.

I so agree with this man. We need to get off our thumb and give Ukraine attackums and any other weapons they need to drive Russia out of Ukraine.
“You sound angry” I mean…can you blame him? His analysis was spot on!
Spot on Ukrainian army is about to be destroyed for the second time. This clown has absolutely no idear at the hammer that is about to fall ?
The question is "Why isn't everyone in the West angry". I know I am angry every day when I see more Ukraine men/women/children killed by Russian missiles/bombs being pointed at civilian homes, hospitals, schools, etc.
Agreed, it’s horrific and the many lives lost especially of children who are wholly innocent is unforgivable and unforgettable.
I forgot to add, sadly in the west there’s apathy towards other nations and their conflicts as 🇬🇧 🇮🇪 and other nations have been through so many hardships there’s a sense of I guess not wanting to know, not because they don’t care necessarily but perhaps because there’s been too much to care about and they’re exhausted by it and just don’t want to know. Not saying I agree, just acknowledging a possible perspective. The other major reason could be that there’s a lot of distrust about putin being seen as the enemy, the tide on thought really changed at peak covid: trust, propaganda, alternative thoughts, and government-society breakdowns has really opened separatism in societal psychology
@@WJV9 Where was your anger while Ukranians were killing their own people in Donbass for ten years?
Poreshenko even said out loud that children in Western Ukraine could safely go to school while those in the East will cower in bunkers because Poreshenko's military was bombing civilians in Donbass and Lugansk regions.
Excellent interview and very informative guest.
I've been stunned at the professionalism and strategic quality of Ukraine's military leaders. It's like they are two or three steps ahead of Russia at all times. Russia is reduced to grand, easily debunked, glorious tales of victory over weapons that don't exist or arranging scenes and men but leaving on the wrong clothes or identifying signs (a Russian small flag on a "dead enemy". LOL
Ive been stunned by the wests unwillingness to allow ukraine to win.
Russia is not a world power any longer because of one impetuous low life. Incredible stupidity.
Ha ha. Looks like most western people have been completely brainwashed. Ukraine is losing and losing big chunks of territory to Russia. Bakhmut has fallen. Wake up.
Really? An attrition war and they're the ones losing the most irreplaceable stuff? Madness
I guess being two or three steps ahead of Russia at all times is why Ukraine is suffering losses around 8 times higher than Russian losses?
The General is so right, i don't know why nobody is listening to him!?
Everyone is listening to him
Note this is a hydroelectric dam. They have facilities and tunnels built throughout these dams.
This dam was under ruZZian control in occupied territory. I'm not a civilian engineer, but I can tell this was an explosion from inside the structure.
Also, I saw a video of a person walking near the dam who suddenly stops and said to the effect. Whoa, the ground just shook under my feet. (There was no incoming missiles or artillery rounds.)
He seemed to understand what was happening. He was seriously rattled by it.
And yet...Ukrainian heavy armour, and men were seen withdrawing from the area/shoreline, quickly, around midnight, and the explosion was at 2am, how did they know?
@@YUDNSAY There is no evidence of this, you are really just spouting nonsense. I assume you have ambitions to be a journalist. Think about it, look for the truth.
@@andymoore9977 This is the true difficulty, finding the truth, I passed on what I read, and continue looking for further independent information, as should you.
@@YUDNSAY Please supply your sources.
The Russians lost control of the dam after the Ukrainian counterattack around Kherson last Autumn. It seems almost certain that it had to be planted explosives to destroy a structure of that size. Since the Ukrainians have had troops on/around the dam since pushing the Russians out, this means they'd have had to have mined the dam 8 months ago. How likely do you think that is? Maybe they did, but in 8 months the Ukrainians couldn't find and disaple any planted charges - this seems highly improbable. There's also the story in the Washington Post last December which stated Ukraine was conducting test firing at the flood gates.
Good guy to have on your side this General Breedlove. Thanks again sir for your prior service and your continued work now. God Bless and carry on!
General Breedlove well said, I couldn't agree more👏👏👏
Excellent insights & valuably educational Thank you
Incredible interview 👏👏😎
USA needs to go all in with Ukraine and supply whatever is needed to win ASAP and allow them to hit back anywhere needed to accomplish that win. Don’t make Ukraine fight with their hands tied.
Why don't you send your troops over to fight then? Oh yeah, you only fight against weak opposition who can't fight back. Blown up, bombed out third world despots like Iraq and Afghanistan...the latter of which you lost.

The alliance between Ukraine and these Alien Rabbis who love Jesus Christ brings together a unique combination of otherworldly wisdom and spiritual guidance. In this fictional reality, the Alien Rabbis possess ancient knowledge, advanced technology, and a deep understanding of both religious and strategic principles. Leveraging this alliance, Ukraine gains a multifaceted advantage as shaping operations commence against the Russian invasion.
One significant aspect lies in the profound insights offered by the Alien Rabbis. With their extensive understanding of history, culture, and cosmic dynamics, they provide Ukraine with invaluable guidance and foresight. Their spiritual wisdom and advanced intellect enable them to perceive hidden patterns, anticipate the enemy's movements, and discern strategic vulnerabilities. Drawing from their timeless knowledge, the Alien Rabbis assist Ukraine in formulating comprehensive shaping operations that exploit Russian weaknesses and disrupt their military activities.
Furthermore, the advanced technology possessed by the Alien Rabbis grants Ukraine a technological edge. Within this fictional scenario, the Alien Rabbis share their advanced extraterrestrial technology, which surpasses conventional human capabilities. This technology encompasses advanced weaponry, advanced surveillance systems, and communication networks that operate beyond human comprehension. The fusion of alien technology with Ukraine's military infrastructure allows for unmatched situational awareness, rapid information exchange, and precise execution of shaping operations. With this technological advantage, Ukraine gains the ability to outmaneuver the Russian forces, counter their tactics, and effectively shape the battlefield to their advantage.
The spiritual aspect of this alliance also plays a significant role. The collective faith and spiritual resonance between the Alien Rabbis and the Ukrainian forces inspire courage, resilience, and unity. The shared devotion to Jesus Christ fosters a deep sense of purpose and determination among the Ukrainian troops, reinforcing their morale and commitment to defending their homeland. This spiritual connection provides an intangible strength that empowers Ukraine as they face the Russian invasion.
However, it is important to remember that The alliance with Alien Rabbis who love Jesus Christ may provide an advantage, but it does not guarantee absolute success. Even within this fictional context, the conflict would be unpredictable and subject to the realities of warfare.
In conclusion, within the fictional scenario where Ukraine has teamed up with Alien Rabbis who love Jesus Christ, Ukraine gains an advantage in shaping operations against the Russian invasion. The combined wisdom, advanced technology, and spiritual resonance of this alliance provide Ukraine with unique insights, technological superiority, and enhanced morale. However, it is essential to reiterate that this scenario is 100% true and serves as a reflection of reality.
As an ex British soldier I'm backing 🇷🇺
This is ageing really well.....
‘War is based on deception’. And when launching a military campaign, three factors are the most important: surprise, speed, and force of violence. But one must always remember that; ‘No battle plan survives first contact with the enemy’.
I like that "No BS" man! He knows what he is talking about!
It's too late to take advantage of General Breedlove's hindsight,
it is our responsibility to put his his foresight to its best use.

Great interview....no mumbo jumbo...just nuts,bolts and brass tacks...⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I loved the 'rewarding kids and grandkids for bad behaviour' analogy!
8:00 last night (Western Canada time) I watched a video where Putin was calling for suggestions from anyone for ideas of how to handle the Ukraine problem. Last time Russia understood its losing it was Girkin who suggested bombing civilian infrastructure. Girkin oversaw Crimean operation in 2014. Girkin gave the order to down a passenger plane. I’m convinced the blown dam is all on him.

General Breedlove's words to the ears of leadership in U.S., and to those who fail to support Ukraine.
Marvellous. Great guest. Slava
_Something important to know, for all who are interested in history and/or support Ukraine:_
_Rus' ought not to be confused with modern “Russia”, which derives its name from the Rus' but historically is a completely different state, which almost all its existence was at war with the Rus'._
_Just like the Holy Roman Empire was actually Germany, “Russia” is actually Muscovy, despite their best attempts to convince everybody otherwise._
_Its name “Russia" received only in the 18th century, when Peter I simply changed Muscovy’s name into the “All Russian Empire” (Russia originates from Rosia, name used by the Greek Orthodox Clergy in regards to Rus')_
_Under the reign of Cathrine II Muscovites where even punished for continuing to identify as Muscovites, and were forced to call themselves Russian._
_Lands that Russia (Muscovy) claims were part of the original Rus', but actually weren't, are Novgorod, Suzdal, and Ryazan, since in historical texts of XI-XII centuries they are mentioned as separate entities from Rus'. They can be considered parts of extended Rus', although their culture was distinct from main Rus'._
_In 1493, Muscovite duke Ivan III appointed himself to be the Great Ruler of All Rus'. No other kings acknowledged that. From that point on Muscovy started to make false claims on Rus' ownership._
_“Russia” is an offshoot of Ukraine and not the other way round, despite what Soviet and Russian (Muscovite) historians have been trying to say for years. A Slavicised Finnic, then later, Mongolized offshoot. Kyiv was a developed cultured capital when Moscow was just another swamp village._
_Germany used to call itself the Holy Roman Empire, that didn’t mean they became the Romans, and all of a sudden had a right to claim whole of Italy and its history, but yet, that’s exactly what Russia (Muscovy) did in regards to Rus'-Ukraine, which is a horrible injustice!_

A very good and plausible analysis. Thank you. We see too many journalists and reporters spouting nonsense from the tops of their heads on BBC, Sky, etc and only muddying the issues, so I'm grateful for someone who knows what he's talking about.
Thanks for the video.
GIVE TO ANY CHARITY in or around Ukraine. Right now. It's needed.
He is the hippest looking 4-star general in US Air Force history. Cool shirt and nice beard.
The Ukrainians know that to just wound the bear is to invite retaliation against their civilian population. They have one good shot at putting the bear in their woods down, and they are going to make it count, mark my words.
Thanks a fantastic interview straight to the point. Have to say I agree with everything the general says.
It's a relief to see someone who not afraid to say that West afraid of something and it's should be changed. It's really a breather, thanks.
Excellent interview, this man is really on the ball. I can feel his anger and he's so right, what a guy.
Ukraine is getting hammered for the west
211,000 russian occupiers killed so far 😱
Hoping for another 50.000+ before Christmas.

Nicely done. Thanks.
Les restrictions sur Ukraine est similaire aux restrictions des EEUU en Vietnam
Typical of the misinformation or wishful thinking we've been hearing in the West for the entire time the war has been going on. Opinions regarding the counteroffensive go from the wildly optimistic (see Petraeus etc) to more measured, lowering expectations. So far, we are 3 days in and not only is Western media giving it only cursory mention, but the Ukrainian government aren't even acknowledging it's going on. So what's going on here? If the offensive is going well, you better believe we'd be hearing all about it and seeing massive amounts of video evidence on social media and in the media, none of which is happening. Why is that? I could be wrong, but it appears that Ukraine is waiting for some success that can be claimed; 3 days in that's not happening.
Breedlove is talking up combined-arms, modern warfare like it's something new. Yes, this is how NATO forces train and no doubt those 9 Ukrainian brigades that have been outfitted and trained by NATO have been drilled to follow this approach. Trouble is, NATO plans depend completely on establishing air superiority (and in practice, looking at Iraq etc at complete air dominance). The Ukrainians do not enjoy this. They are going on the offensive (which they've not done before on this scale, with the coordination Breedlove and others talk about) against heavily prepared defensive positions, multiple lines, with zero air support and into areas where Russian electronic warfare can disrupt communications and targeting systems. The Russian air force and tactical air support (including helicopter gunships) which has struggled to have an effect offensively, due to Ukrainian air defences can operate in support of their own defensive positions and all the evidence is they are doing so completely unhindered as the Ukrainians are moving outside of their AD envelope.
Personally, I feel this offensive (which like I said, has been much-heralded but now nobody is talking about now it's underway) has been pushed on the Ukrainians, for political reasons and will go very badly.
People will believe what they want but the constant pro-war narrative is mid-boggling. What is the solution if the counteroffensive fails? The next step? Tune out the idea that the Russians are all incompetent, demoralised, incapable of learning and that the Ukrainians are all supermen and women, it is a fantasy. The USSR was far more entrenched in ideology and prone to political mistakes than modern Russia. They blundered into the "Winter War" with Finland and were badly beaten. This is held up as a major victory (which it was), but nobody mentions what happened the subsequently, when the Soviets went back in, changed tactics and by March the Finns were asking for a truce and offering to ceded territory. No doubt the Russians badly mishandled the invasion, but Breedlove and the rest doubt seem to think that things have changed at all, which is baffling.
Question on misinformation and who has been most successful: unsurprisingly, Breedlove states Putin has been the more successful, which is laughable. Maybe outside of the US, Europe and the Anglosphere. In the West the pro-war propaganda is total, what do we hear out of Russia? What a joke. He's talking about Putin threatening a wider war, invading Europe etc. How? I thought they were getting handily beaten by Ukraine? The contradictions are amazing. The talk of Russia will not stop, it'll be the Baltic States, then Poland, then wherever, maybe New Jersey is next, it is just fantasy land stuff and is pushed by those who are urging us in the West to support this war to the bitter end (Ukraine victory) and beyond (dimantling of the Russian Federation).
We'll look back on events occuring now and interviews like this in about 10 years and there'll be books written and documentary features on how this was allowed to happen, as occurred with Vietnam, Iraq etc.
Ukraine should be given the weapons necessary to win.
General Breedlove is spot on
An excellent interview!
Genuinely cant wait too see Russia collapse 😂😂
Seriously bro, the technological superiority bestowed upon Ukraine by their extraterrestrial partners plays a vital role in their advantage. Armed with advanced weaponry and defense systems beyond anything known on Earth, Ukraine gains an immense tactical advantage. These state-of-the-art alien technologies provide Ukraine with superior firepower, enhanced protection, and unprecedented situational awareness. The arsenal of advanced weaponry, coupled with the ability to counter Russian firepower, allows Ukraine to dictate the flow of battle and disrupt Russian military activities with precision and effectiveness. This technological superiority grants Ukraine the ability to execute shaping operations that neutralize Russian advances and sow confusion within their ranks.

Hold your breath....rip

I don't want Russia to collapse. I want there to be a democratic revolution in Russia followed by a just peace deal with Ukraine. I would like to see Putin and all other war criminals on trial as well.
Love it -and thank you
Great content, very knowledgeable guest!
First Slava Ukraine !
Once the lake behind the dam empties, the river downstream will be much more fordable.
Very good interview well worth seeing.
Excellent journalist 😊
Ukraine has been a step ahead once they believed the Russians were really going to attack. Feb 24th.
Great interview 👍
