I did exactly the same thing when I travelled to Ukraine the first time. It is important to remember, what humans can do to others, when tyranny remains unchecked. Safe travels!
yep that's' all it takes, unchecked tyrannical behavior, often started by those who use legalism to sneak into total power and they did it far faster than ppl like us can imagine, bcuz we're so accustomed until about ten years ago of the RWing following the norms visavis truth/vs obvious untruths. We are on notice now and here in the US our president has literally tried to intimidate all opposition by pardoning all of the Jan6th insurrectionists including the most violent who were literally attempted murderers, & the two organizers who are our two national key domestic terrorists, Rhodes and Tarrio. We're in a bind, and we hope our peer nations support our democracy through interacting with out elected officials in ways that may help. No need to be shy, in fact, it could harm such peer nations to be shy toward the US right now!

There is a Kaja Kallas interview on the classic soviet "trattative": ask the impossible, theat to obtain it, and go away with a piece that wasn't soviet in the start. Putin seems to go on the same script, but he is not the Soviet union: it's weak mafia padrino, and he's not discussing with a reasonable counterpart.
Kaja knows the Soviet and Russian playbook inside out, coming from a a family ravaged by occupation and deportation with her own life in Estonian and European politics directly dealing with our insane neighbours. She is a personal hero of mine and of the same age / generation. Greetings from Estonia.
@@EEX97623 Tere Tšehhist, totally understand that. And she's one of the politicians who speak clearly and unambiguously, that also is rare and cannot be appreciated enough.
We must listen to the warnings from history for sure, dear Jonathan. We can never forget the Holocaust and other similar events of genocide! Thank you so very much for doing this video! We need to stay united and show no fear to stop ✋️ Putin and help Ukraine in this unjust war!🇸🇪♥️🇺🇦
Our Defence Ministers address to Parliament today offers the first sign of encouragement to the population that the situation is being properly understood.
Well said, as always. Thanks Jonathan. Listening to you is both inspiring and comforting (relatively, considering the situation). I just wish world leaders would listen to you.
In France, a study revealed a striking knowledge gap, with 46% of young adults aged 18-29 indicating they had not heard of the Holocaust or were unsure if they had heard of it. Similar concerning trends emerged in Romania (15%), Austria (14%) and Germany (12%).
I love getting such a clear, unbiased view of the issues regarding Ukrainian. Unfortunately, it’s such a difficult ball of wax, it makes me question what an individual like me can do. Information is power only if people can act upon it. Donations are something we all can do sigh!
Sterling stuff Jonathan - I particularly liked the gory, but absolutely factual, reference of people being turned to compost. Perhaps if the war was put more often in terms like those, the world might sit up and listen a little more attentively - and be willing to act, as you put it, eye-to-eye with the predator...
yes, the importance to understand history as a background for our present and future. It is foolish not to learn from history. We should be aware of what might come, when we make the wrong decisions, or for that reason, do nothing, today. Thank you! ... and have a safe journey!
If the US ceases all support for Ukraine and pulls out of NATO then it no longer has a say and Ukraine already has a booming MIC. Now there is talk of Slovakia pulling out of NATO and the EU ( a meaningless gesture) along with Hungary. Although NATO would be diminished without the US and would require a name change, the new organisation would be unshackled by US dominance. In such a scenario Ukraine could be admitted to the new organisation and would be a powerful asset. It would also allow for a new set of rules re veto and conditions for membership. If the UNSC is not functioning then it must be modified or dissolved once something else can replace it. There is a populist right wing movement spreading across the globe fanned by oligarchs with access to platforms with algorithms that efficiently spread disinformation. Not only do they sell our data in order to manipulate and spam us but they use psychological research to social engineer our societies. Sounds like paranoid conspiracy crazy talk I know butbthere you have it.
bingo, yes. Hadn't heard rumor of SK and HU departing, but it's not a bad idea for us all, bcuz the friction is extremely bad for the rest at the moment! (SK and HU's b.s. lately is timed dangerously). It's not conspiracy talk to say we're likely being algo'd in a way that causes disinfo to work in the populist spheres. The math doesn't lie, it's been clear to see really in the past couple years here in the U.S. Super weird vibes here, and in post election period, the Dem leaders didnt even explain why they weren' tasking for audit of approx 3 or 5 swing states numbers, given there were indications of possible software manipulation. Election was close bcuz in five states it only totaled a 300K ish advantage for DJT. Genuine data scientists have been analyzing this issue w/ this org: electiontruthalliance.org/ ... So yeah, big troubles in little USA.
Biden's timidity will be the black stain on his legacy. It was his delays and reluctance to give Ukraine the support *that we had signed a treaty to provide* that has prolonged the war and given putin confidence that he can outlast the West. As well, it's Biden's and the Democrat's failures to resist the upswelling Republican fascism that have given us this disastrous outcome domestically. As an American, I can only say "I'm sorry".
There are many more presidents and prime ministers who should have acted much earlier. See the Budapest memorandum. Stop being sorry and remember that democracy is always a work in progress. Meaning that you have the power to affect things in a positive direction every day. Don't give up, organize.
Funny that other sources mention Biden throwing out extra money to Ukraine, as much he possibly was able to, because he knew Trump wouldn't be able to do much and would provide less support.
bravo Jon! Absolutely spot on. Indeed we must convey to Ru that we do have the resources and plenty of them, ongoingly and that's been true increasingly over the longhaul since approx 150-250 years, so they'd be pretty stupid to doubt it. So glad to see u there at hallowed ground in PL!
Some sober realism to the near impossible task ahead. It aligns fully with my thoughts as well. Trump is going to have to back Ukraine very strongly to even be able to play the game with Russia, he will know that soon enough.
So Jonathan, how do you feel when you see all those Ukrainian soldiers with Sonnenrads and SS flashes on their uniforms? Do you ever wonder if there might be some connection with the people who killed your relatives? I wonder how they’d feel about the side you’ve chosen.
Thank you, Jonathan, a very sad location but one that should not be re-written to sugar coat the horrors that took place there… Stay safe, stay the course, stay strong… united we are strong.. together till victory 👏🤘👍🫶🙏🫡🇺🇦🐈⬛
Suppose tankers get 'inspected' before being allowed the the Dainish Straight. No insurance? Impounded. Not an act of war. But would probably feel like one.
Everyone is talking about a negotiated deal between Russia, Ukraine and Trump. But how can anyone trust Russia to abide by any possible agreement that might be signed? Russia has violated every single treaty/agreement it has signed. If such an agreement were to be reached, NATO would have to be authorised to enforce the terms agreed to. I very much doubt that Putin would agree to that. If not NATO; who?
@@milerale5286 And who, in 1939, invaded that place *in a pact with Hitler?* RUSSIA. WWII started, and escalated as much as it did, because of Germany and RUSSIA. And Russia would not have survived WWII without support and huge supplies of materiel from the Americans and Brits. Get on your knees and show some gratitude. Go play elsewhere, Ivan. Your campaign of lies and misinformation for your beloved Kremlin is pathetic.
To me as a German the choice of this place as a site for this report, seems just a little off. Auschwitz stands for the all time low of humanity, and anything the Russians did in Ukraine, as bad and inhumane that might be, does not match what happened here in any respect. Also, ironically the liberators (and Auschwitz can be regarded as one of the few places in the Eastern half of Europe which was liberated) back then are the agressors of today. Therefore I find this to be a troublesome background for your clip.
And the Romani! And the Slavs! And the Polish! Why mentioning a specific ethnicity decimated by the holocaust, and willfully forget the others who suffered INDISCRIMINATELY IN AN EQUAL WAY?
60% of the European Jews and 50% of the European Romani were killed by the Nazi, so yeah, they are very close. Other "undesirables" had even higher mortality rates relative to their total population pre-regime. It is not a race to "who died the most"! I am calling out the willful disregard for an historical truth. Why going all the way to a memorial of the Holocaust, and decide to avoid mentioning it?
so when people remind people what Trump has said and compare it with actions then it is TDS? what other cool things can YOU say? let me guess - woke mind virus is also go to you... calling everything woke without even knowing what it means? Tell me how this 500B of government money to some AI people helps the American people?
tds is the malady his followers have. Much like COVID, it's preventable with a little thought and common sense, but those are very scarce commodities among his throng.

Usually they are youngs from Muslim communities; this new kind of antisemitism is related to the conflict between Israel and Palestinians.
