Short answer. It's always late because Western countries are not dictatorships, which means they have to make multi level decisions,negotiations and consultations before sending anything.
Yet Ukraine demonstrates incredible speed in devlopping tools the west is still scratching their heads to figure out how to deal with their own institutional structures for how to catch up with the threats incoming from all sides! At the same time, the west are fighting open and covert threats internally, which is erroding the trust in governments... lots of work, very little time, lots of frustrations... patience, love and resolve in making things go foward! Be well.
Glenn Grant provided factual information on the reasons for the chronic delivery delays of Western weapons to Ukraine. I appreciate Glenn Grant sharing his well-honed knowledge & experience of what it takes to win a war. According to him, Ukraine's government needs to make important changes... let's hope that Zelensky will have the humility to listen and consider...a rapid Victory for Ukraine is a necessity.
Didn't President Zelenskyy say recently that he had 14 Brigades that he wanted to armed but only got the equipment from partners for 4 ? The will is there but the gear isn't there yet.
I'm glad to hear LT Col Grant, an English, agrees totally with PM Netanyahu about putting boots on the ground. Claps claps!! And also yes, he's right, "Fighting is a young man's game."---Bruce Lee
The interview with Glenn Grant former Lieutenant Colonel in the British Army I found very down to informative and advice I seen since watching UATV. Thank you for sharing.
The Col. has some very interesting ideas and incites. Yewleea is without a clue. She just likes to hear herself speak. Too bad this interview was wasted with her.
@@tinap.5064 She is good because she's a good communicator, and at least as a Ukrainian is doing her little diplomatic part. Although in matters of war of course, she can just speculate that far with no military schooling
I mean, her job was to ask good questions to the guest... Seems she pulled a great, informative, conversation out of him. If the interviewer had the same expertise and perspective as the guest you wouldn't need the guest there... Yewleea is opinionated and adds her two cents, I think its that kind of back and forth conversation that makes the guests respond with deeper perspectives.
True. But I can hope and think the issue has been discussed. High rank military officers shouldn't be left to interview by clueless civilian influencers, but by current or former military personnel whom understand what a man such as Lt Col. (Retd) Glen Grant represents and is: a very experienced and efficient combat weapon who has more high level military experience than Yewleea has lived on this planet! I did find this interview excruciating, I could tell the Col. felt it too, at certain moments and contained himself like a champ. But to extract the desired info from him, of course someone else was required. But you do with what you have, I guess.
I'll tell you why it's always late. I've lived in Canada all my life and absolutely nothing here is quick. The politicians work in two speeds...slow and extremely slow. It drives me crazy that my taxes pay their way over paid salaries!
The U.S. gave support guarantees to Ukraine as part of the " Deal " when Ukraine sent the Nukes back to Russia . Or have you " conveniently " forgotten about that .
if ukraine had not accepted US support in the first place none of this would have happened. heck you would still even have crimea much less the donbass...
Well maybe that will be because of the Support Guarantees they gave to Ukraine in return for SENDING THE NUKES BACK to Russia , and then " Welshing " on those guarantees for TOO Long and then actually undersupplying . A rather Russian way to do things , if you ask me .
@@PandemoniumMeltDown Glen Grant is not a narcissist, not a cult leader, not a dictator. He listens to others. Yewleea is a professional, doing what is expected
Western's weapons are being used through zelanskyni who are us,nato.but Russia is only destroying them.still not take any action against supplier like Israel.
First of all if you know of anything about American history America has worth a isolationist country in world war I we will isolationist country in world war II too because if it didn't affect us here in America that was the problem and then a fact that until Japan hit Pearl harbor so when you talk about America you have to talk about the whole of America and what was going on here in America
And how American attitude has changed since world war II Essex world war II we have been in 80 war we have lost a lot of people fighting in other countries
The United States stole out Ukraine to savage stalin (WW2); SO the US OWES Ukraine big time!!! Ukraine should NOT have to pay back a single dime for any aid they receive from USA, Britain or France considering the deal they made with communist evil dictator stalin. No one in those 3 allies countries should ever complain about supporting Ukraine. They OWE the Ukrainian people much!!! СЛАВА УКРАЇНІ 🇺🇦 ГЕРОЯМ СЛАВА 🙏 ❇️
Mr. Grant gave you several answers at the end I would have liked follow-ups and more details on, and you were blathering about personal relationships and political correctness? Disliked.
*The answer is very simple: the West is always too late with arms deliveries and always delivers only half-heartedly too little, because* nobody in NATO countries sheds a drop of blood and NATO does NOT want a quick victory. *NATO has a different goal: to bleed the Russian army dry and destroy it. That's why it has to go long and slow: Russia brings weapons and soldiers into Ukraine and they are destroyed there.* NATO could not achieve this goal more cheaply - without spilling its own blood. *If NATO were a real ally, it would have informed Ukraine of this goal, so that it could prepare for it and coordinate everything in such a way that as many Ukrainian lives as possible are protected and the goal is still achieved.*
I want Ukraine to have more stuff and more flexibility. However, I think Joe Biden has done a fair job giving everything he can without losing the American people and keeping the nuclear weapons from being used.
For what its worth, I think Biden means well but his presidency (not just with Ukraine) has suffered from a few problems. First, he has been very slow to make decisions, from dealing with the border before it became a political liability, to finally allowing Ukraine to use Himars, Atakems, ect, many months too slowly. I personally, do not think the risk of nuclear war is as imminent as those who don't want us to support Ukraine claim. Second, Although Biden has a generally good instinct, he has been very bad at the execution. The withdrawal from Afghanistan, How to deal with Israel / Palestinians, and the Ukraine / Russian war for example. Last and maybe most important, Biden has been a horrible almost non-existent communicator which has let isolationists like Trump take the narrative on all kinds of issues including this war.
The Marines aren't allowed to be there for more than 90 days on a whim, this would have continued to persist, while they would have to leave. War and war effort is not put in to course without congress. Aid and money is not utilized or moved without congress. For America, one would have to ask not why it is late, but what happened to American resolve and compassion.
It is something to consider that Israel was under attack by terrorists, and that Biden already sent the USMC to what the obvious diversion was while Israel has basically gone rogue at this point. Though crucial to squash the terrorists, Israel has little regard for collateral damage. The USMC left Israel before a casualty but the U.S.A. is still involved remotely, wondering if there will be another move by this Axis of dictatorships. Now, action needed more than ever, and yet, leadership might still stall this in to the dirt from lack of relation and retaliation, which is ultimately causing the dissent, loss of confidence, and moral war fatigue in their own counteies.
I could go on with a satire epic extending to the entire world, no less, but it isn't worth anyone's time, either. This tit or tat world in America is just another calling-card sheep slaughter of both sides that eventually just leads them to hate their neighbors with a mob mentality and miscommunication I can't even begin to express with two fingers.
but I suppose I could, because regardless if one has a trade job, who has a false sense of security that they could in fact build their own home, yet never have, as it was built by a small army of Mexicans instead that you never designed yourself, still giving you the room to complain in luxury with confidence without having to source your own material that isn't already coming down an assembly line that breeds the entire problem of mentality while you still have one.
and yet, while you may look down at your cellphone and be disgusted at this, you might still have some shred of argument to produce on a device that was practically handed to you that you will never understand, and without it, you'd be holding a candle, because you can't even forge a flashlight.
I have watched Yewleeas interviews many times. Please, stop talking!! Let your guests speak!! This gentleman had excellent military knowledge!! Learn to listen!! Blab blab blab is just exhausting and not helpful!!
Because this is Ukraines war so Ukraine stop depending on everyone….. Ukraine wants to be independent? So you gotta do independent stuff! …but I think you need stop crying and next time be prepared if you survive this little battle
Thank you so much for this show, it drives me crazy every time Ukraine needs something President Biden drags his feet for months and then gives them what they ask. Give Ukraine everything they need when they want it. It cost lives. Glory to Ukraine 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇸❤️🙏🏻✌🏻
President Biden do not drag his feet on anything this is Western equipment you need training the only thing that the Ukrainian have ever worked with was Soviet junk this USA military and in is highly technological equipment that you need to learn on so he's not dragging his feet it's not like you just throw somebody into into into into a pit of dogs and you ask them how to get out of the of it without without the knowledge
Because Ukraine only wants aid if it is entirely free. The US overwhelmingly passed lend/lease in 2022 and Ukraine snubbed it for two years before the offer finally expired. The blame lies with Ukraine. I don't recall precisely, but that offer didn't require repayments to begin until roughly 50 years hence, and it was 0 interest in the interim. So, while currencies inflate, the debt doesn't, and it winds up being a small fraction of what was given. Further, there is always the chance such aid as debt may simply be forgiven. You have to take the aid on offer as that likely represents what is politically realistic for the giver. The stubborn refusal to do this was the problem. The alternative answer is because Biden and co. don't want you to win; they want you to not lose too badly. But if you would have used the lend/lease, you could have sidestepped Biden and co. more.
@@LePleromeYou are misdescribing. Ukraine was obligated to apply to use it and they never did. That aid could also have extending to other eastern European nations affected and they didn't apply to use it either. I do think the Biden admin likely had a hand in their not applying, but the burden still lies with Ukraine.
@@dano9008 think ur full of it. Ukraine's been relentlessly asking for all possible additional useful weapons every day for 2.5 years. & land-lease stipulates: "for fiscal years 2022 and 2023, the President may authorize the United States Government to lend or lease defense articles to the Government of Ukraine." and Ukraine would've fulfilled any bureaucratic requirement to obtain more weapons via it, if such had been actually offered. Biden has refused to use the Excess Defense Articles Act, as well.
@@icu17siberia How much time did they have to prepare... no time at all. So people saying they should have... are not helping and pushing russian talking points. Ukraine and the west both have lots of issues, internally atm. The "fear of escalation" is real and amplified by foreign interference, and useful idiots, and misinformed voters... we have to focus on one thing at a time (individually, as we are all only one person) and make sure all issues are being solved or pushed on in parallel. Lots to do!
@@icu17siberia Good points. Yet people need to communicate. Usual channels are broken or trolled to death by bots or useful idiots! Yet here is no place for secrets, but discussions are welcome, especially if it can change minds to act decisively and efficiently. Be nice, patient and love thy replyer, especially friendly ones. 💙💛
No. Wrong answer. Big time. The issue of ”beeing late” is a matter of perspectives. Democracy means going through the democratic process. It is s disadvantage compared to a non-demokratic culture like Ukraine (still?)or Russia (and china and so on). So the democratic process is slow but in the end much more powerful than any other process. Why? The people is supporting it. Period.
The US is not obligated to keep sending Ukraine aid. Ukraine keeps acting as if it's entitled to receive endless aid. Americans don't want ungrateful zelensky to come beg for more money in America anymore.
the US wasn't obligated to disarm Ukraine & faux dangle NATO membership to it, making it helpless while exciting Muscovite Chekist imperialism against it, either
I DO AGREE THAT THE FRONT LINE COMMANDERS MUST BE PROMOTED AND THE OLD UKRAINIAN GENERALS ALL NEED TO RETIRE. THEY NEED TO BE GIVEN A PENSION AND SENT HOME. PROMOTE THE FRONT LINE BRIGADE COMMANDERS TO GENERALS.
Did I hear that right? A Western war General admitting that NATO won't defeat Russia militarily...if this is so why continue to waste the lives of innocent Ukrainians when peace can be sought at no cost and economic prosperity brought back to that Country
No, I don't think you heard it right.. or at least didn't understand it right. First, he wasn't saying "we" as NATO.. He was saying "we" as Ukraine.. Second, his position was obviously not that the west should abandon Ukraine to Russia. You still need to fight the war or you lose will lose all of Ukraine, Russia needs a reason to change its goal, and he doesn't think it will be done by outmanning them or having more bombs than them.
