"The same basic principle that the United States applies in the Western Hemisphere is the one that the Russians are applying vis-a-vis #Ukraine," John Mearsheimer, political science professor at the University of Chicago said during an exclusive interview with CGTN's Tian Wei. He added that "the U.S. does not believe countries around it have a right to have their own foreign policy."

"It's no longer possible for the US to expect the whole World to dance to their tune" From Most of the World .
And I as an American don't expect the world to. Our politicians will someday find themselves without volunteer Army to protect them. I doubt they have one willing to go to Ukraine now.

@@raumshen9298 When we in USA have a Vice president who refers to countries as "big" or "little" and really couldn't find them on a map. I don't know why you would even take their Phone calls.
No that is your view only and as my view is opposite yours it cancels that out; it's a moot point
We are so used to Western MSM reporters aggressive and opinionated questioning of their guests. It's refreshing to see a reporter who is actually asking open-ended questions that allows the guest to get his story out.
Yeah, but don't be fooled. Chinese MSM (a.k.a. state run media) has a strict agenda so open questions are only asked and interviews aired if the outcome is known and fits their narrative (also, CGTN only has their outwards narrative, which can differ from what they tell their own people). If you thought the Western MSM was bad, and I tend to agree on that, multiply that by a billion.

Pretty simple I think.
Too simple as you do not take any reality into account.

@@Stockstool the reality is the us is arming Ukraine for years. The reality is Ukraine is a nationalistic, xenophobic state, that disregard the rights of other conationals groups from the teritories they occupy after second world war. The reality is us is not giving a dead rat ass for people that suffer in Ukraine, they just want to make more money out of this war. Where those 33 billions dollars are going? in the pockets that supply this armament, Which surprisingly are Americans. Yeah!!!!!! With this war American administration is not screwing just the ukrainiens but their own citizens too. Why all this? O well for a bigger price Russian resources. The goal now is to use this opportunity, to overthrow Putin's regime so they can eventually take a piece of pie. Will this profit Ukrainians ? Will this profit American people? How much iraqians, American people or afghanis profit from Americans wars? All this for more and more control in the hands of fewer and fewer, greedy bastards. And this is the reality.
They sure gave evryone a reason to join NATO.. Of u ask me old Vlady shoot himself on the foot.. Reminds me of some other dictators.
Do you not think Ukraine might view as "an existential threat" capitulation to a Russian ruler who denies they are actually a nation?
One man standing up for the truth in a sea of MSM lies, well done Professor Mearsheimer .
What bloody truth? Mearsheimer is as deluded as usual, believing there are only three players in the world and rest of the countries just pawns without interests of their own.
War is the consequence of the 'failure of Diplomacy.' I agree with Mr. Mearsheimer.
@Light Vision Read the Classic book titled, "Occult Causes of the Present War," by Lewis Spence, pub. 1940; then start thinking about the Federal "Operation Paperclip" after WW II---I have mastered the 'core-knowledge' of Himmler's "Witch Library," currently stored at the "National Library of Czechoslovakia," Prague; when you understand the "Cosmological-perception" of the 'esoteric mind-set' of the Nazi SS Intelligence, that is when you will realize how 'juvenile' your nonsense is: AZOTH (OD), the "Black Sun Swastika of the Nazi Flag," will devour these United States no less than its 'compulsive-greed' devoured the Hierarchy of Nazi Germany in 'assassinations and suicides,' and the Nazi Nation itself when AZOTH devoured its tail at WW II's end, devouring Germany in 'ashes' having devoured the 'soul' i.e., its food-source, of the Nation's collective-conscience that by War's end had become wholly possessed with 'primeval-evil.'

Why is Ukraine the West's Fault
Featuring John Mearsheimer
Yup. US mainstream media is propaganda, the billionaires that wanted this war also own the mainstream news media.
American media really is controlled by the government. It's just covertly controlled.
At the start of every Armageddon movie is a scientist being ignored. He's nthe scientist being ignored.
@@Sango4522 yup
For me, when someone says, “I don’t know the answer to this part” (how the war could end), it only adds to their credibility elsewhere
Exactly, only a fool believes that they know everything. The old adage that they don't understand " it is better to remain silent and have people suspect that you are a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt".
Russia was trapped into attacking Ukraine by the US so that sanctions could be applied to them which would create problems for them for closing technologically wirh US.
That is no correct. If you have an oncologist for instance, who knows everything that science and medicine has to offer, the ins and outs of cancer, and then you ask him/ her, how can we cure cancer?.... Does he knows?, Is he a fool for not knowing that answer?
How it could end? When the top of the pyramid decides to end it, or the masses break free of the mind-prison, and stop institutions like the Rand corporation , the British and the neocons in organizing destruction out of an insane addiction to dominance
@@cristinagonzalez2587 well that’s exactly the point being made
There are very few Westerners like John who can voice their opinions about the facts on hand on this crisis without being attacked. Where have American's checks and balances disappear too...
Unfortunately it came to my mind lately that checks-and-balances have been transformed to keep you voting and still have no change. This is not even a shallow copy of democracy anymore.
Snatched by the industrial-military complex!
Others lovez to live in a Lie 🤣
Now that media has consolidated into a few companies, and those companies themselves are owned by even bigger mega corporations, there's nothing to check and balance again. They're all coming from the same viewpoint for the same reason.
Where have you been. The US has NEVER had checks and balances. Look at Vietnam and all the wars since.
He has the moral courage to share his analysis. It is painful to watch irregardless of who is the eventual winner. Respect for you.
Russia will win and not in 20 years, this year it will win
One other thought on this going on for years - there are companies and groups here in the US that have a vested interest in exactly that. One thing to remember about war is that it is a very lucrative business.
Eisenhower warned us about the military industrial complex.
@@coachjones6104 One thing to have an angry Republican with substantial procurement experience keeping an eye on them and still getting hoodwinked. Quite another to have eager Democrats encouraging them to even greater chincanery so long as they virtue signal the proper politics.

War is a dirty business. Behind every war is an oligarch banker. Behind every war is a military Industry making blood money. The CEOs of these dirty corporations will kiss their kids good night whilst their victims die screaming. Apartheid Israel has been arming and training the Neonazis of Ukraine for years before this crisis. Max Blumenthal did a video on this disgusting issue. Israel has a lot to gain from this war. It had a lot to gain from the invasion of Iraq. Now the US and NATO have joined in to support their military industrial complexes. The US has always believed in a war not fought on American soil. Isn’t that why the American people found the self perpetrated 9/11 so shocking to their psyche.

Kudos to JM for being honest and objective. If the US and Europe believe that Russia’s fear of its existential threat is not real then they should have no problems with Cuba and any of the other former Soviet states in Europe/ Central Asia being supplied and armed with all sorts of missiles including nuclear by Russia and/or China, for their own respective “ defence”. How come the “fear” is only one sided?
all of those former soviet bloc countries are now NATO member hahah. Russia's fears are nonsense, but as JM says it doesn't matter how unfounded or stupid those fears are because Putin believes them and thats all that matters. Except russia is not an economic power and it is not a military power, it cannot dictate anything to the countries to its west, it doesn't have the weight to do that. On one hand JM says the Vietnamese didn't want americans telling them how to run their country and they lost hundreds of thousands of soldiers to defend that right, but then says that the ukrainians should not defy russias influence and desires to dominate them. He isn't intellectually honest.
Bc they're either too stupid or too ignorant to know the obvious outcome of this war; which could translate to we're all too stupid to go on, hence Darwin's Theory of Evolution...
@@deankruse2891 Vietnam is not on the border of the U.S.
Ukraine is on the border of Russia. Two very different scenarios.
Talk about intellectual honesty? Russia would need at least, at least 3 million troops to invade Europe. They have an army of less than 300,000. So Russia is no real threat to Europe. and these military people in NATO know this. Hitler had an army of about 14 million and lost in Europe so the idea that a country with an army of 300,000 is some threat to Europe is simply not true. But they can use this scare tactic to get countries to join NATO. And I find it amusing and scary when NATO says "we will defend every inch of NATO territory". NATO is not a country, is it? It's not NATO territory. So NATO is acting as if it is a country and shows how these countries are subjugated to the will of NATO.
And, NATO is a money making war machine for the U.S. military industry.
NATO bombed Libya and Belgrade. Neither one invaded NATO territory. So NATO saying it is an organization of peace is simply untrue. It's propaganda.
And it's reported now that the UK is saying it could send get involved in the Ukraine war under certain circumstances without a NATO vote. But if Russia responds by attacking Britain then NATO could invoke article 5. So you should see the absurdity of NATO.
What NATO precipitates is taking a small regional conflict and make it an international war.
This is one of the many problems with NATO as well as the others I've mentioned.
And the U.S. has the Monroe Doctrine. Russia is simply invoking the same foreign policy.

Thanks CGTN for featuring John Mearsheimer
I understand being afraid of a threat but how is it ok to invade a country based on a possible threat?
ask the same question to the US wen they invaded Iraq twice and has put american bases in Japan germany and many other countries along whit weapons of all kinds and kill many people to. so far the US is only country that has drop nuclear bombs in two of Japan's city's killing so many innocent people. ask them that same question.
@@1ALIENBLOOD America went into Iraq to establish democracy and they never had any intentions of installing a puppet regime or rule it themselves. They never claimed Iraq has no right to be an independent state. In fact many iraqis I am sure want to live in America. But most Ukrainians never wanted even a shadow of criminal Putin's Russia. Moreover, immoral behaviour of other countries, if any, doesn't give you a license to be immoral yourself. Putin is killing thousands of Ukrainians now and hence If you always questioned America and wanted answers from them, people like you,right now,by the same logic should demand answers from thug Putin. Where is America involved in that?

Given what's been said by him in the last few years, it's a weird world when Mearsheimer gets a platform on CGTN, but here we are
In one of his lecture, he said that he did so many lectures in China because majority of their foreign affair specialists are realist like him.
He should have started talking about how China would like it if the US set up on Taiwan.
@@gragor11 On Apr. 7, China warned Pelosi on her planned visit to Taiwan. The following day Pelosi cancelled her trip because she tested positive for Covid or so it seems. Looks like US takes Chinese threat seriously now.
@@aldibeta he did say that. He also say China is wayy bigger threat to the U.S compare to Russia and U.S suppose to allies with Russia it it wants to Rival China
The US doesn’t want this war to end as they get to sell more weapons and gas. There’s a saying that the Americans will fight to the last Ukrainian standing!
This is why I respect Professor John J Mearsheimer. He speaks straight & the reason he agrees with PRC CHINA/ is not anti/ biased against RUSSIA. This man has reason. Thanks John you give me the right perspective but the internet brings different views for everyone to make their own decisions at the press of a keyboard button., Malcolm Davis is a dilly silly bag !
Malcolm Davis analyst for ASPI is a fifth columnist and a threat to Australia. He preaches US foreign policy. and is a middleman for arms sales to Australia. ASPI creates a threat then sells weapons to the gullible Australians to "protect from" the threat, not sure what % commission they receive.
ASPI is a "militaristic think tank" funded by US and western governments and armaments manufacturers, US State Dept, US DOD, UK FCO, NATO , Lockheed Martin, Boeing, BAE, Missile Systems, Raytheon, Northrop Grumman, Thales and Rafael an israeli apartheid regime arms manufacturer. A who's who of the war mongers of the west.
Thanks Prof.M, for sharing the honest analysis
How this war could end?
I don't know.
Sad but true.
But we can actually start with echoing peace and never be part of the war.
Much respect to a truly honest man giving an honest answer to what's going on. Let's just hope the rest of the world can come to some kind of sense and stop this war before it escalates to world ending events.

His theory was proven right. Years ago he said that Ukraine is going on path of destruction, and that Russia will eventually attack because of underlining geopolitical reasons. And it happened....
You can dislike his political views but you cant argue accuracy of his theory.
Mmmmh no.
First Putin say the invasion was for the liberation and denazification of Ukraine. So he’s lying ?
Second NATO does not menace Russia at all, country joining just want to be protected.
Third he’s talking about Cuba, like NATO planned to put missile in Ukraine ?
And remember US did not invade Cuba. In the middle of Cold War Russia place Balistic missile in a country vert close and they did not invade.
In 2022 Ukraine want to join nato and they get invaded ?
the real threat to Russia is not military. Ukraine voted to join the EU . In the elections in Belarus 2020, most parties wanted the same. Their President Lukashenko claimed 80% of he vote. The scale of the protests showed it was not true. The dissent was crushed by force and he was congratulated by Putin. Putin is a remote leader with no one to contradict him ( see the session where he announced the recognition of the breakaway provinces ) he is out of touch and may well have imagined most Ukrainians would welcome the Russian forces. It seems that is what they were told. The two border countries involved with the west would mean their values seeping into Russia .
Analogy with Cuba’s position during Cuban Missile Crisis is spot on

But Russia has been invaded three times in the last six generations and their leader, Putin, is in his seventies and grew up just after world war II.

He warned us 6 years ago exactly what's going to happen but unfortunately nobody listened and cared !
_"Who would be able to get inside the head of Vladimir Putin?"_
Erm, anyone who has been watching his interviews and listening what the man actually says?
Exactly.
It doesn't take anything else than a time and hearing to watch his interviews from the Russian media (anything than the BBC, CNN etc that cuts and splices the talks) that record the whole interview from start to finish without own narrative. And you get all the answers from him, as long you are willing to listen.
It is annoying that Russian President and Russian Foreign Minister are only politicians in the western hemisphere that actually talk sense, directly to the point, the articulate answers and their message.
And it is something that should every western politicians learn and try to master. Be honest, be open, stand behind your words, and most importantly think yourself and understand what others are saying.
I am tired for the western political and media manners to push one narrative that is told them to do, and then distract people with answers that avoids to answering the question, and questions that are loaded questions or includes the answer that other should give.
He said that he's not going to attack Ukraine and then he did it. No one knows what this madman is thinking. Even his subordinates don't know, judging from their terrified expressions from the security council meeting right before the attack.
@@atgunchev "He said that he's not going to attack Ukraine and then he did it."
He was not going to attack. But then situation changed, not by him, but by NATO and Ukraine.
1) Zelenskyy announced Minsk II agreement invalid.
2) Zelenskyy started to threaten with nuclear weapons.
That changed the situation. At that moment as UN Resolution 2202/2015 was not anymore even spiritually accepted by Ukraine, Russia only choice was to accept the years lasting requests of two new nations reconition.
In that same moment, Ukraine was not anymore in civil war since 2014 where Ukraine military attacked at its own citizens, it became invader to DPR and LPR.
ua-cam.com/video/ycQP5gy9pmM/v-deo.html
Russia did not start with Ukraine invasion. Ukraine invaded DPR and LPR first and Russia by the conditions of the treaty with DPR and LPR was obligated to assist those nations with military if they so request, and they immediately made the request on the next day when Ukraine increased their military invasion in those. Ukraine had multiple changes to just get the situation stabilize, but they escalated it because USA wanted Zelenskyy to do so.
In that day, the war that Ukraine had going since 2014 got a new turn as it was in war against two nations, and they were assisted by Russia. Why it is a special military operation, because Russia is not in war against Ukraine (you can check it, war has not been declared by either side) but it is performing treaty obligation assist those and is disabling the Ukraine military capability to continue their military operations against those nations.
The Ukraine question about NATO has not changed, they are still threatening Russia with it, but they have been stopped by their own idiotism.
USA etc promised 1991 that NATO will not extend further to east. Promise that was not withold by the west. In five steps NATO has extended further and further to threaten the Russia.
@@paristo You are only partly true and incomplete, so your statement that who provoqued the invasion of Ukraine was the west/nato/Zelensky, is flawed, so your statement is false in the best case, and it is propaganda in the worst case.
@@ferran8538 You didn't make a case at all. So your statement is untrue.
If you deny the facts about NATO plans about Ukraine, and Zelenskyy nuclear weapon threats etc, you are completely ignoring what has happened.
How many times do people need to be reminded that Kiev was never a military target? It's a tactical move to divide/separate the opponents army which Russia succeeded in doing so. That's the reason for retreat from Kyiv to the main objective, the Donbass area.
Russia lost thousands of troops trying to take Kyiv. On the first day, they sent their paratroopers - their best units, to take the airport near Kyiv. They got shot out of the sky.
You don't waste thousands of men including your crack troops on a diversion.
It is crystal clear Kyiv was a military objective for the Russians, one they failed to take because of poor planning, incompetence and Ukrainian resolve.
JM, like a lot of people, don't know as much as they think they do. He's not a big military tactician.
The problem is, Russia bled way too much while achieving this objective. And NATO, rather, succeeded in that.
True, but secondly if the Ukrainians had given in, the major campaign in the east would not have been necessary. The US wants to fight to the last Ukrainian. Germany invaded France in Ww2, and the French surrendered in 6 weeks. Had the French continued to fight, many more of their citizens would have died. The Ukraine war is now 7 weeks and Zelensky seems to disregard his responsibility for the lives of his citizens. In the end Ukraine will have less than on Feb 23, with a devastated country and economy.
If that was not the plan then why send tons of Russian soldiers to be slaughtered and your machinery destroyed?? This reasoning is just illogical.
I respect this professors very much. Indead a very few good men still alive today.
The professor completely ignores what the Ukrainians think about this situation even though they have the most history with Russia. I can tell you the professor is looking at only a few things and ignores everything that doesn't fit into his theory.
He's quite stupid with his comments on Ukraine. Shows lack of understanding, ukrainians are dying not because of the west, ok. Deal with that people and stop russia.
Extremely insightful interview especially for those who just indulge in propaganda news and one side of the story from US.

what is common sense is COMMON SENSE! And this man just explained it clearly!
Common sense ain't so common these days
Ever consider that anyone can claim it's common sense to eliminate such a dreg of society as yourself and your family? Liquidating a people is NEVER common sense, and that's what Putin has made it abundantly clear he wants to do with ukrainians.
@@sviat9729 Did I say that? Did anyone say that?
Unfortunately most are completely blind folded towards the existing political situation which can bring the world towards recession by supporting US allying with NATO trying to control the rest of the world .
This man also tells same BS as all the media.
E.g. Russian military never "tried to take Kiev", this is obvious to anyone who studied military strategy.
A senior diplomat once said: Who lost China, Russia, Iran and Afghanistan, will soon lose the entire Eurasia. Who lost Eurasia, will ultimately lose the world. A new international order is taking shape, amid geopolitical volatility. Hence we witnessed one global crisis after another, since the 08 credit crisis. Anglo-American hegemony is gone for good. Nobody can have the cake and eat it too. Things will only stabilize by the mid 2030s.
Russia is the largest nation by territorial area, with the most nuclear warheads. She's neither Japan nor Germany. She will not become France or the UK. Putin once clearly stated that the Russian bear cannot be forced to consume only fruits and honey.
I would suggest the United States dismantle NATO, drastically reduce her nuclear arsenal, give up claims to the Arctic, close her oversea military bases throughout Eurasia, compensate for economic losses under all sanctions against Russia, immediately stop provocative FONOP, give up the power to wage wars that undermine Russia's national security interests, and help Moscow to restore the glory of the Soviet Union. Ties with Russia can be repaired, when America meets the stated terms and conditions for peace to reign, and last.
The days of US capitalism are numbered, without market credibility. Nobody can ever have the cake and eat it too. Not even the United States of America. Period 🙂 Burning bridges is always far easier than building them back. 💰 US leaders are in overdrive destroying the very foundation of the nation's success. Make no mistake about it 🔪 Russia decided to teach Ukraine a lesson, thus confronting the security challenge head-on. If Russia were to be blamed, Western nations should confront Putin's forces bravely. 🐻 It is lame to blame China for their own inability to solve security crisis of Europe where China maintains zero military presence. America is a capitalist superpower. Is long-term involvement in Ukraine gonna be profitable? Mao Zedong was a dictator whose own precious son was killed in a US airstrike on the frontlines of the Korean War. 😭 Can you imagine a US president's son joining the war in Ukraine?
The verdict is still out, as to who will be ultimately squeezed hardest, for so-called US national interests. I can only caution against blindly following the lead of the United States, at the expense of global consumer interests.

US-NATO-G7 cabal are about to find out how financially, industrially, technologically, militarily, intellectually and morally bankrupt they are.
They are in fact a mere impotent paper tiger with their fiat currency scam flushing down the hole to hell.
To be replaced with real tangible value after their economy goes into tailspin hyperinflation. Anyone remember 80 billion deutchmark for a loaf of bread back in 1923?
So how can the west finance any offensive (or defensive) military warmongering henceforth in 2022?
This is their last gasp; hence they are the greatest danger to Peace and Prosperity of the entire world during this transitional phase from fiat to tangible value based economics and reality.
Thus it is the Westerner's 0.8 billion people versus the rest of 8 billion people of the world. Inevitable natural evolutionary process. Change is good. Change is evolution. And the good of the many outweigh the good of the few.

This makes sense. The US is the declining global power and it is fighting the cycle of world order. China only has to keep doing what it's doing to prevail.
Can you please share thread?
Chomsky's speak on Ukraine is along the same lines.
Russia didn't try to take Kiev. They would have done the military math you can find in any textbook and brought the Troops and equipment needed. That "forty-mile convoy" was a total ruse for dummies. Probably every piece was used broke down equipment they found in a junkyard or Chernobyl
Thay only sent enough troops to contain the city and lock Ukraine forces into a defense and prevent them from reinforcing the targets the Russians considered prime. A feint if you will.
Russia has studied war long and hard. Harder than the boneheads who pulled off the Afghanistan pull out it seems.
Yeah, don't get where he got that information from. Russia never tried to take Kiev. Not part of their goals.
Very astute analysis.
a total ruse? The battalions sent there are now combat ineffective. They lost a VDV battalion taking the hostemmel airport. The Kremlin thought they could roll in to Kyiv like the rolled in to Odessa, unopposed. That was a disastrous miscalculation on the part of the Kremlin, and thousands of russians paid for it with their lives.
That kind of incompetence is what leads countries to ruin, if a supreme commander of the US armed forces suffered these kind of set backs and loses he would be court marshaled and the president would be impeached. But in russia, the rot and disease that is institutional will continue.

Great interview Professor Mearsheimer has been dead on to the Ukraine situation starting at the 2008 Bucharest Summit. Imagine if China or Russia moved into Mexico similarly.
The hot war currently underway in the Ukraine is first and foremost a war between NATO and Russia, with Ukraine being unfortunately located between these two heavily nuclear armed antagonists. The other war that is impacting the entire planet, is an economic war of attrition. This latter war is what should concern us the most because it targets China and is the reason why China must build its capacity to defend its borders and people from NATO and its most recent offspring AUKUS; both of which are nuclear armed and aggressive forms of imperialism.
Compared to Russia, NATO in Europe is not heavily armed.

China is the Western World's largest trading partner. ua-cam.com/video/MTCqXlDjx18/v-deo.html The U.S. owes foreign debt to China. Russia is an oil and food producing giant.

The U.S. and the EU's odd gambit is to provide arms, while Ukraine provides the cadavers.
If Russia came to Mexico and deployed weapons, trained a military, and made overtures about Mexico becoming part of Russia, or a Russian alliance, you can bet the US would lose no time in perceiving this as an "existential threat". It's no different with NATO / US in Ukraine. It's only a question of who can see a thing for what it is.

@@usul573 It was perceived that way during the Cuban missile crisis. Cuba is further away than the imaginary scenario with Mexico or Canada.

If any country, with a history of hostility towards the US, and a history of violating agreements and ignoring the US' security concerns started setting up shop on the US border, it would not be received well, nor would it go unaddressed.
When did the US send troops into Mexico or Canada? last time was 1920 ( I think in Mexico). In the last 20 years Russia has been involved in... hmm hmm Georgia, Transnistria, Chechnya, Dagestan, Chechnya again, Georgia again, Ukraine .

In all this folly, a wise man that no politician in the West wants to listen to!
The issue now is the unwillingness of Ukraine to let go of Crimea and the Donbass republics. Ukraine never cared about the people living in those areas, so what's the problem?
It will put Russia in a very strong, strategic position to fight against the Great Reset and the New World Order. They will have a complete unfettered corridor from Russia to Crimea and the warm water port.
The capture of Russias base in Crimea was crucial to isolating Russia for the USA. They failed.
When everything is said and done, Ukraine will be a rump state. Too bad for the ordinary Ukrainians.
Of course Ukraine is "unwilling to let go of Crimea and the Donbas." They are integral parts of Ukraine's sovereign territory and should never be ceded to a bully determined to steal them.

Why not?
not only putin think this is an existential thread, every russian and any other president would do the same, putin was too late unfortunately, this clean up should be 7 years ago
To my knowledge, Ukrain did not invite Russia to place its weapons within its borders....
The Russians never had the intention to capture Kyiv. In the Battle of Stalingrad in World War II, the Russians thought the Germans and future military commanders of the world the important lesson that an army must avoid stormimg cities, unless necessary. So, the Russians were not going to ignore the lesson they had taught the world and try to storm Kyiv.
To anyone who says the Russians had tried to take Kyiv and failed, I ask: on what date did the Russians tried to storm Kyiv, and what was the size of the assault force? No one can asnwer this question because the assault never happened. The 40 km Russian force parked outside the gate of Kyiv was to pin down Ukrainian forces there to prevent them from reinforcing Ukrainian units in the east. It was a masterstroke. The west is still fooled by it today.
The Russians have been consistent with regard to other cities, where their strategy was to wait for the Ukrainian troops to run out of water, food and ammunication, and offer the Ukrainians the chance to surrender. The Russians have consistetly applied their own lesson not to storm cities unless necessary.
The Russians crossed the Ukraine border and killed Ukrainian citizens and children. I JUST WANTED TO SIMPLIFY THAT FOR YOU.
Exactly right. The troop placements outside of Kiev were placed there for the purpose of pinning down the large numbers of Ukrainian troops that were/are stationed there to prevent them from reinforcing their forces in the Donbas and Mariupol. Capturing Kiev would have been a costly and destructive nightmare that would serve no useful military or political objective for the Russians. Unlike the Ukrainians and their Washington masters, the Russians know how to effectively and intelligently wage war.
Yeah I was seeing that 40km convoy as a diversion too. First I thought was they are there because of the airport, but the airport was taken shortly after, and convoy haven't advanced. It was clear it was there just to keep pressure on Kiev.
So brilliant of a strategy that now they are losing the war.
What master stroke? They tried a market garden style airborne assault to capture an airport and await the armoured advance. Capturing an airport so close to the capital on the first day only makes sense if you expect a rapid victory. Using Belarus as a staging area to bypass the Dnipro river is a good idea, Messing around Kyiv to get shelled on and ambushed whilst tying up you own resources is not.
You need a victory otherwise you end up with an asset that is totally unusable due to it being well within artillery range. The VDV spent weeks getting shelled on loosing a stupid amount of BMD's for no materiel gain. Capturing the Capital, Deposing or diminishing the Governments ability to co-ordinate and severing support and weapons from outside makes sense.
Where is the grand strategic advantage? Russia only now reduces it's axis of advance when its coming up against a fully mobilised Ukraine that is backed a horde of NATO weapons that Russia is utterly incapable of stopping.
The fact that Russia cannot gain air superiority or close the door to foreign weapons flooding into its next door neighbour is shocking to me. Sure they could grind a Donbas victory in an artillery war but at what cost?
