Ukraine will agree not to take anymore of Russian territory, after Russia gives back what it took back to 2014 and pay for war crimes and reparations. USA should have nothing to say about this. It is not their county. Ukraine is fighting a war for all democracies in Europe.
"USA should have nothing to say about this." Yeah the largest provider of aid should have no voice, just bite the hand that feeds you. Next time I hope we (US) do nothing but watch.
@@kellycook3914 "Russia needs to give", "America needs to give", Germany needs to give", "France needs to give", "UK needs to give". Ukraine is dirt poor, corrupt and desirable. Why does everyone have to "give" them anything? I have seen beggars in NY subways and they didn't beg this hard.
@@ragingmonk6080 not sure about "largest provider" - if going by value of military support yes, but keep in mind that this also works as stimulus for the US military industry, and the value counted is the "as new" value and much of the equipment and ammunition would otherwise be slated for destruction or retirement. Then there's financial support, where Europe outpaces the US by some margin. And finally, the cost of refugees, which is considerable and of which the US bears none. I'm not saying US support is in any way insignificant, but looking at the price of military equipment provided alone is misleading (though there is of course also a possible discussion here about monetary value vs value on the battlefield).

I really think that the people from the USA need to better understand the situation in Ukraine. Learn its history with so-called Russia. Understand what happens to people during occupation in Ukraine. It's not just about island spirits. It is about people who are oppressed and tortured and fed up because they are Ukrainians. stand up for its sovereign state. They don't want to crouch and be oppressed by Russia. This has been happening for 300 years. Ukraine wants to be free from Russia. once and for all!!

You give Trump way too much credit. All the people from his cabinet said he was just a buffoon who they had to talk down from one bad decision after another.
Too much credit to Trump indeed. Increase of European military spending did not happen because Trump pushed us. It happen because the security situation with Russia has becomes dangerous for Europe.
What most don't seem to understand is, if Europe had a huge military that would be a massive threat to Russia. The fact that most spent below the nato target to the east meant nato was less of a threat. Russia doesn't worry so much about nato members, but what's on it's borders.
The idea that this war can be "frozen" is not going to work out well. Essentially this would go back to the 2014 - 2021 period, when Ukraine was neutral and had security guarantees from the UK, the US and(!) Russia (Budapest memorandum, Minsk I, II). That obviously didn't hold. Why would it hold now?
Instead of the Nobel Peace Prize, award Trump the Noble Peas Prize. Believe me, he wouldn't know the difference. Also, don't hold your breath.

Looks like Putin has already taken dominance over Trump. Nikolai Patrushev, Putins aid and former Secretary of the Security Council, told the Russian newspaper Kommersant : "To achieve success in the elections, Donald Trump relied on certain forces to which he has corresponding obligations. And as a responsible person, he will be obliged to fulfil them.
Ultimately, the EU and USA are the ones who helped Russia and Ukraine negotiate away Ukraines security by the Ukrainians giving up their nukes. Of course, the US and EU gave Ukraine the impression they would have security provided through membership in the EU and NATO. Now we/they (the world) owe them the best protection we can muster.

People forget the aid to Ukraine isn't necessarily coming from the American taxpayer dollar immediately. America has assets all over the globe and can divert anything it needs anywhere. America isnt really losing anything because they send older equipment to Ukraine and buy newer weapons and systems. What we give to Ukraine or our NATO allies allows needed updates to our military and our NATO allies in return receive tried and true weaponry. Maybe not the most modern but still technologically ahead or on par with anything else

Putin has never honored a long-term agreement in his life. He is a loose canon who should not have any part of Ukraine. You say that Trump will get the Nobel Peace Prize. Are you delusional? You may think Trump is God in the U.S. and other countries. Most countries that aren't corrupt despise Trump and will never bow to him, let alone give him an award. I can't believe my fellow Americans voted that lunatic into office.
Trump is pro Russia, you don't honestly think that he gave the Russians classified military and nuclear documents for the love of USA do you? Trump is an absolute traitor to the USA and to NATO.The man has absolutely zero morals and cares only about money 🤑💰 I would love to know how much he got for those documents he gave to Vlad 🤣
America does not give money in money. She uses them to buy weapons for Ukraine, pay for her instructors in Ukraine, pay for satellite reconnaissance for Ukraine, etc., etc. Either Blinken or Sullivan (I don’t remember exactly) said that up to 90% of the allocated assistance remains in the United States. And, by the way, this assistance is mainly provided as a loan. Rarely, there are also gratuitous grants (gifts), but they are usually for a very small amount.
Europe needs to get with the programme and fully unite with a European military. Outdated notions of imperialistic jingoism are holding us back. Also, UK needs to pull its head out of its backside and apply again for EU membership.
😂😂 get another “expert” try Jeffrey Sacks, Scott Ritter, Ray McGovern, Glenn Diesen, Gilbert Doctorow, Larry Johnson, Douglas MacGregor, John Mearsheimer.
@@shaun1463they didn’t. Russia unprovoked invaded with no violation by Ukraine. Just like Georgia. Putin is a serial international criminal that lies about his reasons.
Ukraine can be a member of Nato since the beginning since Russia declared it “ special military operation “ not war… Therefore there’s no war technically and according to Nato rules the country should not be in war before joining the Nato. That’s only my perspective.
@@MotownGuitarJoe "their country wouldn't be in shambles now if they had been in NATO four years ago." People keep saying, even in this video, that Putin may attack the Baltics. Well the Baltics are NATO members.
@jamesegsmith why not? NATO is based on the North Atlantic Treaty under Article 51 of the UN Charter. In its preamble, the members are committed to peace, democracy, freedom and the rule of law.
Ukaine needs Crimea for shipping security; Zaphoriza for security of Crimea. Preferably Donetsk and Luhansk for strategic depth, alternately, you broke it you fix it! Just a thought.
Form a new defence organisation that nato countries and Ukraine can join. UTO Ukraine Treaty Organization. Or European Defence Organization. Pres Zelensky has already done some individual agreements.
Any "agreement" with Russia only has value to the extent it is backed up by military personal and hardware, that can prevent even the slightest temptation.
Mark..I:d rather Trump talk to Putin about negotiations that Harris. Can imagine Harris talking to Putin on her own? She would have had a bunch of men around her as advisers. Why? The personality of Putin requires it. I thought that this election would be a great opportunity to mend the divide in our country. But it appears that some commenters want another 8 years to be divided. Your comment divides. It's not based on Truth. Unless you want to give us some tangible fact. Trust me,I don't want Ukraine to come out with a bad deal. If there's even a small chance of a peace deal. I thought America could really let the past go; and WORK for a new beginning.
Yep, unless there are US troops in Ukraine there’s no magic ‘words’ that can stop this, Ukraine will fight to the last person because anything less and there won’t be any Ukrainians anyway, the US will be flooded with refugees.
This guy in 110% in damage control mode he is throwing all the talking points that could be seen as positive that have been floated in the media. Rather than give actual genuine thoughts on things.
This fella is putting hopes and emotion in front of what's obvious and sensible. You think Don Trump jnr doesnt sit and the same breakfast table? But he'd have no idea cuz hes not on the team. Piff!
What's the point in a DMZ when it will need to be policed and maintained by the USA for the next 50+ years? I thought that the usa had lost interest/didnt want the responsibility or expense. We might as well just help Ukraine win
Putin has only been talking about NATO. Let's take him by his words. How about giving a guarantee to Russia that Ukraine will never join NATO, but instead there will be a security guarantee issued to Ukraine by several countries like Finnland, Poland, The Baltics and whoever else wants to join and on top of that and additonally the US + the EU (which Putin never talked about) will sign a guarantee that in case Russia attacks Ukraine again or interferes with Ukraine's internal security they will provide x amount of funds and weapons? The EU NATO members have to invest more into their military anyways. So how about stockpiling tanks, planes, drones...which will be provided to Ukraine if Putin breaks the truce.
Ukraine never had nukes, they were soviet nukes and nobody wanted them to remain in Ukraine because how corrupt ukraine is, after the fall of the soviet Union they sold arms to anyone with cash, including selling subs to the cartel
The comments here are anti-America. The EU needs to know that our people are struggling too. You don't put America as one of your priorities then want us to fight for you? You need to pay up, all of the EU needs to pay the money. America first, you must contribute in making America great, instead of acting like old hags on grant. Make America great!
Per capita in Europe, we pay more than US citizens already. Europe still provides more financial aid to Ukraine than the US. Part of this is in the form of military equipment bought from the US as well as gear produced in Europe.
Given that Ukraine was the only signatory to the Budspest Memorandum that actually honoured them ; very much to its detriment. Ukraine needs to reacquire nuclear weapons . Stick your “both sides “ rhetoric . america seems utterly ignorant of how shady their state looks to the world . america forced this “complicated situation” on Ukraine .
Why is it that certain folk seem to have to make excuses for Donald Trump's bluster and then find themselves having to resort to quoting soundbites to make sense of the questions they're being asked? To me, that sounds profoundly insincere and it's almost as if these people instinctively know that they need to translate Trump’s words into something palatable for the majority to hear.
Did Trump really say that he will arm UA to the teeth if Russia prevents an agreement? I seem to recall that someone well known speculated with these terms, but not that Trump actually spoke those words. I hope it's correct, but I doubt it.
NATO rules are stable democracy, Zelensky has declared marital law, and ever member has to agree as Sweden found out recently. And it's rules are no country should be at war , which would mean automatically wed be at war with Russia. I think Zelensky has been a disaster, hundreds of thousands dead, the country in ruins, he gamble on NATO stepping in and he lost
I think it’s reasonable to go back to the table and talk about Russian joining nato including Ukraine. Since Bush refused (according to Putin) how about trump offers Russia nato membership? Because Russia’s position is that the west is working against it and using Ukraine as a weapon before the “Special military operation”
For the next few years we're going to have armies of 'experts' being interviewed on what Mr. Trump *MIGHT* do. *_And being completely wrong almost every time._* Achieves two goals... 1. Wastes our time & 2. Keeps Times Radio employees paid
Could it be that Trump is just making a show publicly and will concede to whatever Russia wants? Furthermore could it be that most predictions and analysis on this channel are flawed; as most hinged on the fact Trump would lose the election?
It's a naive point of view to imagine that Trump will arm Ukraine when he has failed to utter the slightest criticism against Putin. Putin will dictate the terms and Trump will follow.

You can't just say no NATO and then have Ukraine join NATO after lol. That will ensure that you never make any peace negotiation with the U.S ever.
The only way is a total victory ww2 style defeat like Japan in which you can dictate all the terms your looking for.
Don't depend on Trump. I never heard that he would support Ukraine. NATO and Western allies we have to do it!🙏🇺🇦💙💛💕❤️🇨🇦
That is a great point!
Trump is a traitor and will hand over Ukraine on a platter!
Putin has never honored a long-term agreement in his life. He is a loose canon who should not have any part of Ukraine. You say that Trump will get the Nobel Peace Prize. Are you delusional? You may think Trump is God in the U.S. and other countries. Most countries that aren't corrupt despise Trump and will never bow to him, let alone give him an award. I can't believe my fellow Americans voted that lunatic into office.
Trump is pro Russia, you don't honestly think that he gave the Russians classified military and nuclear documents for the love of USA do you? Trump is an absolute traitor to the USA and to NATO.The man has absolutely zero morals and cares only about money 🤑💰
I would love to know how much he got for those documents he gave to Vlad 🤣
Russia's economy is going to play a lot into them stopping this needless war
They can continue this war 1 trillion dollars every year in war which is 50 percent. Can nato give 1 trillion dollars to Ukraine question is that .
@@miteshghadi3146NATO could give every dollar Russia is worth, weekly if they choose to. Russia is very very poor comparatively.
Why the interviewer does have not asked the Ambassador if he - and Trump - support carving up Ukraine. It's repulsive.
The ambassador care more about what ruSSia wants and it looks that he does not want to help militarily Ukraine.
How can lives depend on these power hungry narcissists
Indeed…
Ask the majority of the American people
Because the unthinking & poorly educated vote for them, probably why Trump wants to 'close the Department of Education'.
America does not give money in money. She uses them to buy weapons for Ukraine, pay for her instructors in Ukraine, pay for satellite reconnaissance for Ukraine, etc., etc. Either Blinken or Sullivan (I don’t remember exactly) said that up to 90% of the allocated assistance remains in the United States. And, by the way, this assistance is mainly provided as a loan. Rarely, there are also gratuitous grants (gifts), but they are usually for a very small amount.
Europe needs to get with the programme and fully unite with a European military. Outdated notions of imperialistic jingoism are holding us back. Also, UK needs to pull its head out of its backside and apply again for EU membership.
😂😂 get another “expert” try Jeffrey Sacks, Scott Ritter, Ray McGovern, Glenn Diesen, Gilbert Doctorow, Larry Johnson, Douglas MacGregor, John Mearsheimer.
Scott Ritter the pdf? Yeah ok….

Join Ukraine period 🇺🇦💛💙❤️🙏💪🙏❤️💙💛🇺🇦
Didn't Ukraine already have security guarantees? They didn't do much good, now did they?
why did they violate the agreements?
@@shaun1463they didn’t. Russia unprovoked invaded with no violation by Ukraine. Just like Georgia. Putin is a serial international criminal that lies about his reasons.
@@shaun1463what agreements? The ones ru broke on day 1?
@@MathyBoonen The ones the US and Ukraine broke dunny
@@shaun1463 minsk was broken by ru. So did budapest
Ukraine can be a member of Nato since the beginning since Russia declared it “ special military operation “ not war… Therefore there’s no war technically and according to Nato rules the country should not be in war before joining the Nato. That’s only my perspective.
I like that view never came up with that idea myself.
Joining nato started this war .nato is Russia enemy. Ukraine will give more reasons to Russia to continue this fight. Peace only option talk to putin
I agree 100%. Great point!
Ukraine and Nato why not
Why?
@@jamesegsmith- their country wouldn't be in shambles now if they had been in NATO four years ago. So, there's that....
@@MotownGuitarJoe But why should they be included? What is the benefit? Besides worse relations with Russia.
@@MotownGuitarJoe "their country wouldn't be in shambles now if they had been in NATO four years ago."
People keep saying, even in this video, that Putin may attack the Baltics. Well the Baltics are NATO members.
@jamesegsmith
why not?
NATO is based on the North Atlantic Treaty under Article 51 of the UN Charter. In its preamble, the members are committed to peace, democracy, freedom and the rule of law.
Ukaine needs Crimea for shipping security; Zaphoriza for security of Crimea. Preferably Donetsk and Luhansk for strategic depth, alternately, you broke it you fix it!
Just a thought.
You won't see none of that.
Form a new defence organisation that nato countries and Ukraine can join. UTO Ukraine Treaty Organization. Or European Defence Organization. Pres Zelensky has already done some individual agreements.
This guy is very knowledgeable
Putin wants his first meeting with donald over molotov cocktails on top floor balcony of Trump tower😂
Any "agreement" with Russia only has value to the extent it is backed up by military personal and hardware, that can prevent even the slightest temptation.
Hang on, I thought Trump was pulling America out of NATO anyway...
He never had any intention of that. Only wanted to pressure members to spend morem
We are done giving Europe a free ride pay in comparison with your countries GDP
@@codybell6882 That's not true. Trump wanted to leave NATO. He was using member's spending as an excuse.
@@MtnBoar We're not actually paying more because Europe isn't as much. lol
@@BigSnipp I’m fine if American leaves NATO they are very ungrateful
If you want to know what Trump will do, just ask Putin what he wants.
Mark..I:d rather Trump talk to Putin about negotiations that Harris. Can imagine Harris talking to Putin on her own? She would have had a bunch of men around her as advisers. Why? The personality of Putin requires it. I thought that this election would be a great opportunity to mend the divide in our country. But it appears that some commenters want another 8 years to be divided. Your comment divides. It's not based on Truth. Unless you want to give us some tangible fact. Trust me,I don't want Ukraine to come out with a bad deal. If there's even a small chance of a peace deal. I thought America could really let the past go; and WORK for a new beginning.
The USA has already guarenteed Ukraines borders. Its just the guarentee easnt worth much.
I agree. I'm embarrassed.
Yep, unless there are US troops in Ukraine there’s no magic ‘words’ that can stop this, Ukraine will fight to the last person because anything less and there won’t be any Ukrainians anyway, the US will be flooded with refugees.
¡Gracias!
Ukraine are anxious...."
What ARE England?
It ARE a country.
There can be no deal.
There won't.
Ukraine does not have to surrender anything. Putin needds to leave and that's that.
This guy in 110% in damage control mode he is throwing all the talking points that could be seen as positive that have been floated in the media. Rather than give actual genuine thoughts on things.
This fella is putting hopes and emotion in front of what's obvious and sensible.
You think Don Trump jnr doesnt sit and the same breakfast table? But he'd have no idea cuz hes not on the team. Piff!
Get rid of America and inv Ukraine to NATO and send trumpty dumpty to prison!
Not before mass deportations though
Who are you? I've never heard of you. Ah, a keyboard warrior full of cowardly bluster😂
Go eat a Big mac boy , go to front lines in Ukraine and have fun ⚰⚰😂😂
you are not a MAGA,
@@Mr_Miles98 true ,desserters are not allies...
Is somebody kissing up for a job here? He must be talking about a different Donald Trump
What's the point in a DMZ when it will need to be policed and maintained by the USA for the next 50+ years? I thought that the usa had lost interest/didnt want the responsibility or expense. We might as well just help Ukraine win
Putin has only been talking about NATO. Let's take him by his words. How about giving a guarantee to Russia that Ukraine will never join NATO, but instead there will be a security guarantee issued to Ukraine by several countries like Finnland, Poland, The Baltics and whoever else wants to join and on top of that and additonally the US + the EU (which Putin never talked about) will sign a guarantee that in case Russia attacks Ukraine again or interferes with Ukraine's internal security they will provide x amount of funds and weapons? The EU NATO members have to invest more into their military anyways. So how about stockpiling tanks, planes, drones...which will be provided to Ukraine if Putin breaks the truce.
Have you all forgotten. Ukraine gave up nuclear weapons and was given a security guarantee from the West. So where is the security guarantee ...
US famous for not honoring treaties! 😤
Trump forget not Biden
Just for the record. The security guarantee was that you would respect Ukraine's borders - not that you would defend Ukraine's borders.
Ukraine never had nukes, they were soviet nukes and nobody wanted them to remain in Ukraine because how corrupt ukraine is, after the fall of the soviet Union they sold arms to anyone with cash, including selling subs to the cartel
The comments here are anti-America. The EU needs to know that our people are struggling too. You don't put America as one of your priorities then want us to fight for you? You need to pay up, all of the EU needs to pay the money. America first, you must contribute in making America great, instead of acting like old hags on grant. Make America great!
Per capita in Europe, we pay more than US citizens already.
Europe still provides more financial aid to Ukraine than the US. Part of this is in the form of military equipment bought from the US as well as gear produced in Europe.
I really don’t understand why the US President thinks anyone not living in America cares what he has to say. He is not President of the world.
Ukraine shouldn't compromise, they didn't invade Russia.
what wars in past 30 years were legal and how many of those countries involved under a real threat, or only Russia has to obey the law
You can’t join if you’re in a war.
NATO plus Poland on her own. End of Russian aggression.
lol
Where does this information come from? 🤔
This guy is a Trumps minion
From the title, I thought Trump was trying to force Russia to become a member of NATO.
They should have kept their nukes.
Given that Ukraine was the only signatory to the Budspest Memorandum that actually honoured them ; very much to its detriment. Ukraine needs to reacquire nuclear weapons . Stick your “both sides “ rhetoric . america seems utterly ignorant of how shady their state looks to the world . america forced this “complicated situation” on Ukraine .
I'm an American and I agree. How can Ukraine trust America or the UK. We should be running Putin out of there.
I'm an American and I agree!! How can Ukraine trust us now? We should be pushing Putin out. He is simply and aggressor and war criminal
Why on earth are you afraid of being a threat to Moscow? Surely it's about time they feel threatened.
Why is it that certain folk seem to have to make excuses for Donald Trump's bluster and then find themselves having to resort to quoting soundbites to make sense of the questions they're being asked? To me, that sounds profoundly insincere and it's almost as if these people instinctively know that they need to translate Trump’s words into something palatable for the majority to hear.
The only piece prize for Trump is qualified for is a 2 piece prize💩💩
Did Trump really say that he will arm UA to the teeth if Russia prevents an agreement? I seem to recall that someone well known speculated with these terms, but not that Trump actually spoke those words. I hope it's correct, but I doubt it.
You lost me at.
No way is Russia leaving Ukraine territory.
That is a win for Russia.
Nuclear war is round the corner
You all know nothing about this. Stop speculating ad nauseum.😅😅
Knows far more than you
good arguments idiot!
@@michaeldunham3385Bwahahaha
I told you trump would are ukrain , everyone is wrone , he cales it peace trougth strength ..
NATO rules are stable democracy, Zelensky has declared marital law, and ever member has to agree as Sweden found out recently.
And it's rules are no country should be at war , which would mean automatically wed be at war with Russia.
I think Zelensky has been a disaster, hundreds of thousands dead, the country in ruins, he gamble on NATO stepping in and he lost
We are all waiting for Trump.
Will he escalate the war or retreat from it?
It's one or the other.
I think it’s reasonable to go back to the table and talk about Russian joining nato including Ukraine. Since Bush refused (according to Putin) how about trump offers Russia nato membership?
Because Russia’s position is that the west is working against it and using Ukraine as a weapon before the “Special military operation”
Mitchell is back with some more trolling of the President-Elect as well as some mindless gibberish.
Trump will throw them under the bus
crimnea belongs to kiev not moscow. stalin goofed :messd it up
Thx for the interview.. good stuff
Just another Trump apologist .
For the next few years we're going to have armies of 'experts' being interviewed on what Mr. Trump *MIGHT* do. *_And being completely wrong almost every time._*
Achieves two goals...
1. Wastes our time &
2. Keeps Times Radio employees paid
forget wef Micron , and Dame Kim Stalin
Guy is wrong re Ukraine
Just another Muppet on the Muppet Show 😊
Trump is putting on a show and trying to look like he is distancing himself from Putin. Not likely.
can you stop with the pointless intros, extremely frustrating
This interview could have taken 5 minutes. The guest simply talked in circles and repeated himself.
Could it be that Trump is just making a show publicly and will concede to whatever Russia wants? Furthermore could it be that most predictions and analysis on this channel are flawed; as most hinged on the fact Trump would lose the election?
I'm getting tired. Putin threaten. All I got to say us do not need to back down from Putin. Got the show Putin that day is not scared of him
Trump will do what Vlad tells him to do, don't be ridiculous 😂😂😂😂😂😂
It's a naive point of view to imagine that Trump will arm Ukraine when he has failed to utter the slightest criticism against Putin. Putin will dictate the terms and Trump will follow.
Great video. Very informative.
stop lying
😊
The reality has sunk in. No more pushing for a defeat of Russia. Interesting times!
