- "These cookies weigh more than a ton. That's pretty heavy for your standard biscuit. And that's when they discovered the gold."
This is how gold smuggled from Sudan by the Wagner group is financing Putin's war.

Nothing Rooskie Pookie does is ever legal or moral.
Economically & politically, LNG terminals in Germany are the thing to watch; I heard a report yesterday that they're significantly ahead of schedule. As soon as those start coming into service, North American LNG exports will defund the remainder of Mad Vlad's war machine
Ukraine still needs help and we can do this. Come back alive Ukraine, Blue and Yellow a Lithuanian organization that supplies drones, or VestForUkraine which supplies vests and other much needed gear. These are all good places to donate even a little to help Ukraine kick the bad guys out of their country once and for all. Another good thing to do is write your government demand more action and sanctions against Russia or aid for Ukraine.
So obviously Russia/Wagner is doing this all over Africa, that is why Lavrov was there just last week!
Exactly! Everything falls into place.
rotten uSSr spent many-many years and lives to do the same.
Amen 🙏 😎Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦 💪 🇮🇪
🤣🤣🤣
That's perhaps the most common phrase I hear in Ireland today.
Слава Україні ❤🇺🇦💚🇮🇪
It took us 800 years to get the Brits partially out, let's hope the Ukrainians can remove the murderous Fascist RuZZians in 800 days.
Heroiam slava!
We must become militarily stronger and energy independent.
Russia will only continue to blackmail us if we don't!
We Fight Evil!
💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
🇬🇧🇺🇦🇬🇧
UK, France ,Poland (not Germany )
Each of these countries can individually stop Russian Armies by them selves
Why do you want to spend more on military budget while Russia is a regional power that couldn't defeat the poorest country on Europe (Ukraine)
@@Ramtin-Blue_rose I have two guesses. Fear of a war breaking out (not fear of Russia itself) and China.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 You see evil in the mirror dude
@@olgabaker6525 No, we see evil in ruzzia and ruzzian people. Why do you think NATO was created, just for the funsies?
@@Ramtin-Blue_rose because, as expensive as deterrence is, it is far less expensive than fending off an invasion.
❤️Ukrainian 🇬🇪
Major world events.
Interviewer: mmm cookies
Boy, I wish that know-nothing would stop interrupting the flow of information from the expert.
@Willie Wonka She clearly stated that they were running out of time.
@@crose7412 Obvoiusly, her time is more important than the story. False choice, as the interview will be heavily edited before its released.
@@williewonka6694 She's not self-employed - it's not her radio station; she has schedules to stick to.
There has been a significant amount of pro-Russia sentiment in Africa regarding the war between Russia and Ukraine. What do they think of Russia now?
they love them, africans are short sighted
They have embraced Russia so let them learn their lessons
@@DarkRoomAmbience “They” haven’t embraced Russia. Russia is actively supporting military dictatorships. The people are dead against it.
Russia is running successful influence ops in developing nations. Half of African countries abstained in the UN vote on Russia sanctions, only Eritrea voted against though..The west's has been forfeiting their soft power over the past 20years and it's starting to show. We need to get on it asap
Just wait until petunia threatens them with nukes . They will change their minds quickly
Cookie Monster asks, "One ton of cookies? How do I get?"
Why does this lady keep interrupting
Must be smuggling quite a bit then.
At this point, I suspect any little bit might help. Oligarcs and Putin sure aren't going to open their own wallets.
If world hunger is in such a crisis why won't the UN and NATO put forces in Odessa and the Black Sea to protect the ships and ports? Once Finland had assurances NATO will protect it, Putin quickly forgot about the whole ''NATO Threat'' thing didn't he?
Putin was actually quoted as saying he wasn't bothered if Finland or Sweden were to join NATO
NATO is forbidden to intervene unless in support of a NATO member that has been attacked.
Russia can veto any UN security decisions and as for NATO becoming involved that could make things worse
It was never about Nato, preemptive attack, nazis or anything like that.
When do you think what RasPutler says and actually does overlap?
Protests happening in sudan now…
The people will not be pleased to find out they are being robbed by the same country that is also trying to stop the flow of vital grain. Hopefully, the people will put an end to that game.
It will take them some time to wake up to the fact
Why bother conducting an interview when all your going to do is talk all over the “expert” ?
You are being too harsh. If you could brandish a bic like that you to could be deserving.
Poopin might not be around much longer
central intelligence find those countries snuggling Russian gold
Unbelievable
Where is it going? Financing has to have others involved.
Uk doesn't import gas or oil from Russia. So waaaaaaaaa
And here is me thinking that it was the billions he is getting from Germany.
Contrary to Sudanese gold hawks the Sudanese whole wheat pop over and milk biscuit is worth its weight.
Take gold from Africa off the market
He's called putin's chef because he used to have a fast food van and he's a chef?
This must be one of the reasons gold bullion prices have been so depressed.
Gold prices by are controlled by the us government. They passed legislation allowing them to control gold prices decades ago. Its costing them a fortune at the moment but they keep printing the money so who cares.
Wow, you have to admit Wagner has really surprised us from the days when he was a cheesy X-factor wannabe.....
Why invite an expert when you won't let him talk?
I'm going to summarize by quoting Black Sabbath.
The Mob Rules.
How's Aaron Banks these days?
💰
Stop buying gold from sudan
Here's another one I said from the beginning they got to get his gold yeah that's the only reason he's surviving is this freaking gold I guess no one listened to my comment dude that's what you get now they're talking about it his gold well why do you think he kept arrogantly showing it to you he was letting you know what he's buying his war with I guess they'll wake up eventually
Russian frozen money is gathering interest when they get realised they be in the trillions
why cant western countries have Wagner like groups of Chads running things?
They aren’t chads? Have you seen the state of them?
@@eddiel7635 chad in terms of attitude.
Chips ahoy
So drone key oligarchs
Come on fake news or what - LAUGHABLE
NATO send troops to Ukraine
Stop fooling yourselves
Very bad interview style.
Sudan doesn’t produce cookies? Racist
"what good are any of the weapons now?" seems to be the problem as Western rocket technology simply overwhelms the pretense that having this equipment makes one an effective military to ahem "run a Country" ahem let alone run all of Sudan.
The fact remains that it takes US Dollars to run a War economy but certainly this is true for the rather hodgepodge slapdash reality of an ahem *"Russian economy."*
Having said that Russia does have a seemingly endless supply of manpower to fight in Ukraine and Putin seems more than willing to sacrifice that for what reasons one cannot even imagine at this point in time August, 2022 now nearly 6 Months of (incredibly) continuous fighting now along an enormous front line by any military sense of that term.
Talk about usa stealing Syrian wheat
Scott Lucas the least intelligent voice ever.
What an irritating interviewer
