  • The reason why Russia invaded Ukraine is not only geopolitical but also psychological. It is rooted in Russia’s culture of violence and political sado-masochism. Ukraine World discussed this with Peter Pomerantsev, a senior fellow at Johns Hopkins University and author of the best-selling books, This is Not Propaganda and Nothing is True and Everything is Possible.

    The answer to the question that Peter is pondering about why everyone cares and identifies themselves with Ukraine and Ukrainians is social media. This is the first social media war. Mainly Zelenskyy, but many other Ukrainians are telling stories that help us to identify and empathize with Ukrainians. It's been a constant story-telling campaign that has and continues to works. I think Ukraine was lucky/blessed to have a story-teller as their head of state. His media-savvy and story-telling abilities as a writer, producer, actor combined with a fortitude of character have enabled Ukraine to shape public perception and win battles on the information front. I completely believe that the US and the majority of Europe were ruled by those "peace at any cost" people Peter mentioned and were prepared and unbothered to let Russia overwhelm Ukraine. It was only the societal resistance and cleverness and determination of the Ukrainian army which was broadcast through Zelenskyy and social media that made people realize that they should care about and support Ukraine.

      A well written synopsis of a horrifying position. Do take a screenshot of it and see how you feel in a few years. Will be a mind bending if not exploding exercise for you.

      To a degree.
      For the people who live next to Russia, this is Russia going back to its old ways -- the ways they know very well.

    @UkraineWorld Thank You for the excellent podcast. Thank You also that you supplied it in English 🌹
    @Vladimir Mullen the whole conversation was actually scary 👀, in contemplation anyway.
    A RuZi-Mir sounds absolutely horrifying, so how do we inoculate ourselves against such a mental disorder of a mad Rosso-RuZi-Land population? Lol ;-)

    Thank you, great information. I wish the West understood it, and stopped inventing some ridiculous reasons for this horrible invasion.

    This explanation is very limited. I suggest you listen/read/view to a great historian Timothy Snyder for a more fuller explanation.

    The way I look at the situation now between Russia and Ukrine whatever loses of lives between them we suffered also the pain comparable to a fingertips pain is a pain also of entire body.

    My comment are short and Clear. No body disputes that in this conflict no life is spared in either side both sides are dying.At some point Zelensky (Pres) once admitted that Ukraine lose 50-200 soldiers daily that was june- July today is more and the Russians are dying also.No one should manipulate the reality about deaths.Many soldiers are dying and Ukraine once vowed to retake Crimea and thereafter Kherson and Kharkiv and that it will not HAPPEN! Taking back Kherson or Kharkiv that daylight dream.No one dreams on daylight.its impossible period

    Peter Pomerantsev disappoints me, he analysis of the Russian psyche/culture is so limited and lazy. "Sado masochism" and everything centres around this- like please, when will someone come along and actually give me a stimulating insight into the people that produced Dostoevsky, Tolstoy and Tchaikovsky.

      You won't get anything from this psychotic, ignorant shill, other than cheap lies and fantastical propaganda. He's a typical mouthpiece for atrocities and aggression dished out against all opponents of the dollar empire.
