What a total space cadet…… SLAVA UKRAINE 🇺🇦 🇬🇧
Absolutely!
It's Slava Ukraini...
War criminal
I have to agree. He just parrotted on the old debunked propaganda.
This guy was full panic mode
That’s fair. He knows what real war means.
I have uploaded a video on iranian drones in action in Ukraine,
@@persianman4857 You mean the one's that are getting shot down by Ukraine..?

If you allow a bully to coerce you today, they will always coerce you.
And destroy you when they believe they can. Appeasement NEVER works.
And that’s all you need to know about how to deal with Russia
You do realise that the window behind this man was wide open and 4 big guys were waiting to throw him out if he said the "wrong" thing.
Russian windows are very dangerous, particularly to those in politics.
Defenestration (the act of throwing someone out of a window)
It's incredible how they talk about nuclear weapons like if they could possibly win and not have Moscow completely obliterated
come on its the same deal as was with the Soviets.
Russia is a 3rd world poor and dysfunctional dictatorships their own missiles will land on their heads.
This is just a means to try and scare people, no takes it seriously and not one cares.
The response from nato would be incredible Moscow would not exist I'm tired of putins threts now
I don't think it's about winning at that point. It's about not being the only loser then.
"If I can't have ukraine, no one will"-Putin
@@pureruckuspower2165 Yes, he's like the terrorist in the theatre waiting for the sleeping gas.
@@pureruckuspower2165 and after ukrain? We still give up on everything that putin wants?
Someone send Sergei one of those kids education books on what democracy actually means.
Nah, an old man with a cemented mind like that can't learn anymore. His mind is already a block of Kremlin concrete.
I think the eu and the west should read them as well
@@jimdemetri8168 I think you should get off this platform since you hate the West so much.
@@jimdemetri8168 Okay, demetri, here's your 50 rubles. Good work 👍
@@jimdemetri8168 well we do have free and fair elections🤔
I recently voted in the Swedish elections (national/regional/local). I could vote for nationalist white supremacists, communists, feminists, environmentalists, liberals, socialists, moderates, pirates, islamists (Nyans), Donald Duck party, cheaper beer party etc... And that doesn't include the elections to the EU parliament which is a separate election.
In what way do you think the EU should reform its elections?
What’s the fastest mammal on planet Earth? = a Russian soldier retreating from Ukraine! 🤣🇺🇦
Second fastest is a vatnik trying to board a plane from Moscow to Istanbul
The bullies must get their due.
This is a lesson in the effects of cognitive bias in an information vacuum. He passionately believes every word he said. Facts are so important.
You are so correct. Most people never get to suffer at the hands of this symptom. I grew up in a family where the older siblings lie as a matter of daily routine. They got so use to using this as a way to fulfill their own needs, they don't even think anything about it. This is sociopathy, and at Putins level it's psychopathy. he could destroy humanity, but he still has to be stood up to and stopped, the world has no choice.
@@rufanuf1 Yes because the consequences for the world in a new era of nuclear backed imperialism would be dire, notions of international law and human rights would be gone and many would die when the smaller nuclear powers use these tactics to settle their longstanding disputes, it would be absolute chaos.
I somehow doubt facts have ever got in the way of Markov's vacuum, much less proved to be an effective antidote to his Centuries of enculturated Russian superiority over "regions".
I think it's more that he knows what will happen to him if he doesn't repeat what he's been told to.
He's Delusional!
It’s like listening to a broadcast from Berlin from Jan 1944
Exactly! Sounds like Goebbels
Putin demonstrated a distinct look and demeanor of panic during his address.
@@Nick-mt4wk They probably took time to give Putin a fresh blood transfusion and time for his meds to kick in.
@@Nick-mt4wk He needed time to getaway to his bunker in the Urals.
He's rattled
@The Patriot Putin has repeatedly abused Chechnya, Syria, Georgia and now Europe with his invasion of Ukraine, TWICE! Now he wants to annex MORE Ukrainian territory. He was known to be a threat and we went to soft on him in 2014. Appeasement NEVER works with dictators like Putin. So NATO has stood up to him. If we don't do that, who in Eastern Europe is next? Putin has stated his intention to restore the Soviet empire. Ukraine is an attack on Europe. Putin must be destroyed.
Good Lord........Are all Russians completely Mad ?
they do know we have nukes as well and ours certainly work as they've been maintained.
Nuclear war is not winnable. Let's not forget that.
NEVER use weapons on the battlefield that you DON'T want used on you.
I hope Putin doesn't think there wouldn't be an overwhelming response to his crazed actions.....
He seems to forget the existence of both Trident and Article 5.
He does not care about anything anymore exept for his own power
@@Blanka1100 In that case why would using nuclear weapons be a good idea? Remember the result wouldn't just affect the west but China, India and the rest of the world would suffer.
@@Blanka1100 Well if he fires a nuke at a NATO country, his power is the least of his concerns. Russia will cease to exist.
@@coolbreeze2.0-mortemadfasc13 All he can do is to attack non Nato members and he still fails.
this just confirms that the world will live without russia for 3 generations
Just saw the polls yesterday that 67% of Russian not only support Putin's "special operations" but they would like to see more force used towards Ukraine. So i would love to see Russia isolated from all trade with the west for 50 years.
@TrickOrRetreat
You misunderstood. Russia WILK cease to exist for generations because we are going to nuke them back to the stone age.
@@TrickOrRetreat 67% of people terrified of their own state
@@TrickOrRetreat Do you think any russian poll is creditable? I don't think so. Most are afraid to say what they really think.
@@Blanka1100 There are probably a lot of older people who hanker after the old USSR. They don't represent those under 30 who have the sense to realise their future is at stake. Send the old f*rts to fight on the front and see what happens. Russia already has a population in decline with demographically an unsupportive older population. This war is making the situation worse as younger people leave and get killed.
Every time before Sergei Markov responds to a question I swear I can actually hear the click of the switch on his netbot parallel universe generating machine.
By contrast, the interviewer's calm respectful composure throughout is delightful. Classic high quality interviewing: Just calmly ask the questions and provide enough rope.
An intelligent audience will connect the dots...back on Earth.
I think someone was holding him hanging from a "window".
For once i actually would love if if he were to fall:D
Great questions asked in this. This guy is stuttering and stumbling all over the place trying desperately (and failing) not to sound like a complete loon!
Perhaps he is trying to still tow the party line but at the same time, English isn't his first language and it's easy to lose the ability to speak a foreign language if you only use it every now and then. As he is no a longer a spokesperson, I imagine he doesnt use English often. Benefit of the doubt from me.
@@123GAZZA321 To be honest, I think it's much more to do with the fact he's trying to remember what the party lines are.
@@123GAZZA321 He doesn't have to speak perfect English for us to understand. He's a Putin nut spouting the same lies.
Russia is s guy with a hand grenade to his head shouting "stand back or i will pull the pin".....crazy
What a clown!!!!😂🤣
He’s the definition of pathetic
lol yeah Now he's look more and more like kim jong clown. Talking nuke every morning after breakfast~
He's been threatening this since Feb. Bag of wind.
Are you waiting for it to happen? Don't poke the bear, we all won't be here to discuss why shouldn't have poked the bear after things really go off so thank God he has only been threatening
Since well before Feb.
That's true
That was hilarious
As a NATO official said, if Russia stops fighting, there'll be peace. If Ukraine stops fighting, there'll be no Ukraine.
Better then
Wow, some Russians really live in different dimension..
"everything's going according to plan "
Yep it's going out the window. 😏
here is no plan
God that was painful to listen to. The absolute unhinged nature of Russkiy Mir. JFC!
_"Looking at the Russians, you clearly understand that this tribe has not yet developed to the end. Russians are not yet fully_ [civilised]. _They lack the main property of a_ [civilised people]: _moral instinct; the ability to distinguish good from evil."_ -Jules Michelet, French historian (1798-1874)
🟦 Слава Україні! (Slava Ukraini!) - Glory to Ukraine!

Crazy! Just because someone is Russian speaking doesn't mean they want to be part of Russia! I live in California, we have many Spanish speaker but I guarantee you they are NOT going to vote for California to join Mexico! Zelensky himself is a native Russian speaker having grown up in the East and we know what his choice would be.
Merry Christmas Everyone !!!
.
thought I'd just get that in early,
just incase
This is tantamount to declaring war on NATO.
Do we let Hiter annex the Europe again? Or nip it in the bud.
Looking at the general state of ruSSian military stuff, the losses will be incredible. On ruSSian side.
Sadly, Ukraine has suffered terrible losses too . . .
Russia is a specialist in exploring oil, gas and gaslighting by the sound of it too
"special narcissist operation"
The way he scrambles to find more bs to spew out🤣
This guy gives off a “being dangled over a balcony by FSB” vibe.
Opens up phone call and immediately starts threatening with nuclear weapons. "We will not use them on Ukraine, but on NATO military because they are threatening us". "But who in the west is threatening Russia with nuclear weapons?" "Well some politicians said so...."
Seriously, the desperation is intense. But in all honesty, a cornered wild beast might do some unpredictable things.
some _marginal_ politicians
Putin will always play the wild beast card ...
That is why you shoot it when it is cornered if the risk is to high.
Bring it on, the Kremlin needs a serious overhaul or will do when Vladimir starts sending nukes he better be in some isolated part of Russia.
@@stevenellis2043 Nuclear war is not winnable. Let's please not invite it. We and Ukraine must keep fighting and the Russian people are you g to have to get serious about toppling Putin and installing a government based on rule of law, not allegiance to a certain man. They had their chance in 1991 and blew it. Now they have to do it again.
Absolutely warped man
Thank you for terminating your guest. I was slipping into a trumatised state from visualising the firing patterns in his melon. Hope you guys are ok now too.
Russia have deported 4 mill Ukrainians into Russia. And he talks about referendums and possible elections. Russia have lost their damn minds.
That is all they can do, terminate. Hardly anybody is able or willing to enter a debate. After the referenda, Russia should invite some independent, reputable poll company, like Pew Research, to verify the opinion of people in the territories. Of course the west could request to send monitors, but they won''t.
@@bobschmitz3882 Hahaha, you think you can have an election during a war? Russia does not even control all the areas with the people who would need to vote... This is nonsense... Only idiots think this will be a fair vote...
@@bobschmitz3882 who would go and monitor a referendum in an active war zone??and who knows, by the time they hold the vote maybe the Ukrainian army will have captured or destroyed the polling station🤡
Wow Putin is getting desperate
🤣🤣 this guy is more wound up than the village clock to much caffeine and sugar lol
GLASS WINE FIX HIM
This is the 5th or 6th time he treated with nukes
If Putin wants to use nukes then why mobilise?Why all these bruhaha?Just drop the nuke already.
His name is my name too...
He doesn't know if the weapons work because the scrapman wouldn't name a price when offered them. Just wooden decoys on show in parades, the uranium went to North Korea 😳.
a) Doesn't know if they work
b) No manual on how to use them.
Those are basic reasons why he hasn't used them.
Mobilization. I wonder how long it will take young Russians to figure out its easier to fight their own police...than meeting our forces on the front lines in Ukraine where they will all die horrible deaths without proper food, socks, weapons, ammo or medical care? lol
They are going to end up as popsicles this winter.
Well done this interview!
I believe the internet calls this "breathing copium" 😂
On a more serious note, having some official Russian perspective from time to time is helpful. At the very least, it allows a peek into their psyche and to sort of separate the propaganda from the useful idiots.
If someone says I'm not bluffing, they're bluffing
I am liking this just for the sake of exposure and for the hard-hitting questions asked. That joker spew more nonsense in 7 minutes than all Russian-controlled media today.
Man... the desperation and terror, the recklessness of rhetoric, the panic in every word...
You sure can tell who's winning this war.
Call every bluff. It's all they have left.
This guy is terrified, for sure. This worrying question is, though, is he scared of the West/Ukraine winning the war or of what the ruzzian regime (no way this is all just putler) will do if it looks like they are finally losing?
@@jonm7272 - You never know I suppose, and there's always the danger from hardliners within the incompetent Russia government... but I think Putin's desire for Russian suicide has been greatly overstated.
The principles of mutually assured destruction are very much intact. Putin knows this. He is not suicidal. He is most definitely bluffing.
Does anyone car for his threats anymore, I think not!
Why do you give voice to these kind of propaganda machines?
It's called giving them enough rope
-Only way to understand your enemy is to know him. This is a great way to remind us how far from reality and disillusioned they are. Only one way left for them is to draw the entire world into the ditch.
That escalated quickly
Lol
Absolutely ridiculous.
It is pure desperation to threaten your neighbor with nukes when he has the same weapon to use on you.
This guy is what happens when you drink your own koolaid.
Jeez, bro
Especially when your koolaid is 80 proof
if he even dares then he will be living in the stoneage...
Sergei is singing the company song as they say. Will Putin go tactical. Yes thats when the generals will step in either before or after the first one
Unfortunately they wont be around for long, if Putin launches the first one, to be able to step in.
Mr Markov should do a tour of the world and give talks see the reaction of people. We should allow and encourage Russian citizens to visit European countries and other countries in the world so that they can talk to the taxi driver, waitress and waiter, shop owner----everyday people. The Russians I meet are wonderful people and they should be welcomed around the world because when they meet people they will see what other people think of the Ukrainian war. This is Putin's war as Chancellor Sholz has said; we must keep trying to inform Russian people and everyone and Times Radio does an excellent job in presenting the facts. We have to prepare ourselves for the first nuclear exchange in a modern war since WW II.
The problem is that the russian people by and large are within a bubble of information supplied by the state. They don't have full access to the Internet and many are old f*rts like me but lack the education needed to find and use other information sources. A large part of "russia" lacks basic amenities, proper roads, sewage etc. Even China has upped the game and attempted to join the 21st Century. Meanwhile russia is North Korea on steroids with a lunatic in charge paranoid that the west is out to get him.
By the way of course there has never been a nuclear exchange merely two atomic strikes. This time there are bombs both sides and mutual anhillation.
@@geoffreycodnett6570 GGGGGGGGGGreat to hear from you. You are right of course but we are dealing with a desperate man who is control of the nuclear arsenal.
The Russians you meet are wonderful? The world doesn't want to know them. They should stay home and never be seen or heard of again. Stuff Russia.
Quick russian history lesson for this guy. Eventually someone is going to apply rule 7.62 to him, and it will probably be his own boss that does it.
If the Nukes behaves at all like their sunken flagship. I predict that they will blow up inside there silos before landing anywhere.
Always remember ... don't look directly at the bright light ! Exciting times huh !
Prerecorded says it all. A very scared little Man. Even nastier elements are circling around him.
Rabies?
Give Ukrainians everything they need
Don't worry, soon EU will send people who do not have money to keep themselves warm at home, to go at Mother Russia's doorstep for target practice for easy money. The US effectively made them all mercenaries with the energy crisis.
Fed up with theses deluded Russians 💙💛🇬🇧
What about political prisioners in Russia?
Considering they seem to prefer to assassinate opposition politicians, Kremlin doesn't seem to think putting them in prison is so bad.
Well, what about?
Deep breath, think logically
Which is why dialogue with Putin's regime is an absolute waste of time.
This guy sounds like he is living on a different planet to the rest of us. I wonder how much Putin paid him to say these things.
Russia doesn't have the industrial complex to replace it's obliterated equipment in Ukraine
We need to thank that Russian general, General Corruption, for his work with the Russian army.
People just have to look at how the Ukrainian Army were welcomed, and the graves left behind to see the Russian influence,,,
"Western countries are occupying Ukraine?!" LOL
Send him to the front....let him walk the walk
i just hope cooler heads will prevail even if he gives the order.
In retrospectic we should not have lend-leased the Soviets a damn thing during WW2.
Sergei Markov seems so passionate. I think he should be sent to the front lines already. Perhaps he can make the difference he so craves
That last 'Ok' from the interviewer summed it up nicely.. what a bunch of nonsense
Should have asked if navalni will be released too
umm... he referred to the "war against Ukraine". ... off to siberia then
Nukes between lunch and thee time.
Like it's nothing.
300,000 young people will be mobilized or sacrificed?
Great job! Russia is already on fire and he decides to throw more fuel, wonderful! If Russia collapsing is what he's aiming for
Ohh big scary man
I've heard this chap before in interviews (BBC's Ukrainecast podcast). He's always the same: talking ten to the dozen, contradicting known facts, spouting unhinged Russian propaganda. Scary what a seemingly intelligent person can say and believe...... I don't think we'll ever be able to reason with this sort of person. We have to respect their right to an opinion, and of course the right to give it, which doesn't happen in Putin's Russia, and we must counter it logically. But, again, if there's no reasoning, then what? To me, this seems to be one of the most important questions: how can you reason with a person like that?
You can't. Russian citizens and the military must destroy Putin and his mafia. Putin has now set this in motion.
I think the interviewer should get hazardous duty pay for this one.
Finally some real questions
Problem is they are insane
Russia never too clever. Pack your bags and go home. Live happily ever after, OR not.
Kaliningrad for part of Germany for many centuries so according to this Philosophy regarding Ukraine, then Russia should return it to Germany...
Ah yes I forgot language defines all of your personal political ideas
My brain hurts
What a kick-off to the interview 😂😂 I do wonder exactly how they plan to keep these referendums fair and free - oh wait, they won't...
They have already won their referendum.
Lord Owen was asked about Russia's nuclear threat on Radio 4 :-
"Russian generals know the Americans have a massive,
massive superiority in nuclear capability : they know what
would happen to their families"
He doesn't sound like a "former" spokesperson of Vladimir Putin.
Well Putin should listen his own advices and..."think twice "!
big strong words from big strong army of big strongman...lol
By the way he was talking someone was showing him an open window or something.
The Russian Referendum question:
Do you want to join Russia?
OR
A pair of poisoned underpants?
👍🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Another Red off his head.
Russia's military conducts warfare as if it's the 10th century, but they have modern weapons. Imagine what some third rate medieval war lord would do with a nuclear weapon.
I do wonder about these referendum's taking place and how free they will be. Will they be where each person is allowed to make a free and anonymous vote, or will people be expected to write down their name and address as well, next to what they are voting for?
However I doubt that Russia would wish for an independent authority to monitor these referendum's so it will be interesting to see how close the result is to the predicted 80% approval.
No way the occupied Russian territories in Ukraine will have free and fair elections
@@janejones8672 I completely agree with you :)
What about all the displaced Ukrainians who fled the fighting, don't they get to vote? The sole reason Russia is pushing this referendum is because it does NOT represent the population that lived there when they started this war.
why are you even asking this question? you heard this guy, passes by 80%. more votes then people living there
@@clintbird1294 I understand this. I was trying to suggest that the referendum would not be legitimate and that anyone who does vote will more than likely be under the threat of persecution or even imprisonment if they do not agree to vote to be part of Russia. And yes I agree that a large proportion of the Ukrainian population from these areas will have evacuated in order to save their lives.
That would be a sad day for ruzzian culture if he uses nukes anywhere
