- Russia and the West have been locked in a battle of wills for more than two years over Ukraine, fighting and waiting to see who will back down first.
But regardless of how long the war lasts, Ukraine will be partitioned in the end, argues Ian Bremmer, founder of Eurasia Group, a global political risk consultancy.
Bremmer tells host Steve Clemons that “the willingness of the US and Europe to take economic pain to hurt the Russians is minimal” and the sanctions against Moscow are not stopping it from exporting oil and gas.

Please don’t have this neoliberal propagandist on again.
He is literally brainwashed by pentagon propagandas 😂, he is leaving in another world
Haha. You want for little putin to have his "free cake" ?
@@MarincaGheorghe idk wtf that means
Russia army is taking more territories everyday, and Russia economy is thriving despite the sanctions. Russia has defeated the collective NATO and their puppet regime in Ukrain
No. Absolutely have him on so you can analyze his and his groups' thinking. Never ignore your opponents's willingly given information. Analyze to find the strength's and weaknesses. Keep the weakness weak, make the strengths the weakeness. That is how you win. No emotion, only strategic and critial thinking from as many POVs as you can. Do not ignore the smallest details.
This man is livig proof that "Truth is the first casualty of WAR".
Al Jazeera needs to stop being CNN
Truth is always bitter and it hurts
@@sunilshrestha6871 CNN is truth????
Al Jazeera forgets who they are.
According to the deal signed by Biden with zelensky usa is committed to continue support for next 10 years. If this war continues for 4 more years then Germany would be forced to leave the European union because fuel subsidy to other European countries is creating lot of pressure on their exchequer.without European economic powerhouse zermany the whole arrangement would be meaningless.
@gagibakija4825 Yes, and you are a lair and propagandist.
This analyst's mind is full of garbage
Truth is always bitter and it hurts

This is perfect analysis.

Paid propagandist, that's what analyst are, especially the ones on mainstream media. They analyse their bank account then give you their masters point of view.
This is total garbage bottom line. Please bring someone who is honest and knows the subject.
For anyone paying attention, this guest is an obvious propagandist with an agenda, I expected more from AJ.

He is saying Ukraine has right to defend itself and take it's land back
Europe and US also saying Ukraine has right to take its land back from Russia
Why when come to plastainian
They have no right to take it's land back and defend themselves!!???
Ukraine and Israel are instruments of US geopolitical objectives, and highly profitable for the US military industrial complex.
Because Israeli wants that land, and they are blessed by USA, how dare Palestine say no!
Because Ukraine and Israels enemies want to wipe it off the map
You speak the truth

Because Putin does not believe Ukraine has the right to exist
🤣🤣🤣
Crimea is a part of Ukraine, true. But I am not sure if this expert would have the same consistent answer on "if Kosovo is a part of Serbia". And that's where all Western arguments fall apart.
They have no principles.
The argument that NATO is a defensive alliance falls apart when you talk about Serbia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya..
It's about influence and Russia is now claiming its influence vigorously.
He said one truth "Ukraine will never get territory back"
Did the world bank lie about Russia now being a high income economy?
How can the West economically, politically, and militarily weaken Russia, the world's largest country with plenty of resources? Decades of Western sanctions against North Korea, much smaller country than Russia, but instead, North Korean people are still there, living together peacefully, while some of the west are wondering round provoking this and that, these and those. See what's happening in Gaza? Innocent Palestinians die every day, while Western governments turn a blind eye to this matter.
conflict between United States and Russia is small episode of conflict between United States and China - this is reality
Simple the west and partners are the biggest customers or atleast were the biggest customers. And stop comparing ukraine with gaza. first of all the ukraine war happened 2 years earlyer so the country'that support or allow russia to do it. were doing this for years already. and ukraine never attacked russia in anyway before the invasion. hamas did attack israel. so it's a big diffirence. And those country's that support or allow russia to invade it's neightbour are now crying the hardest for gaza. if hamas didn't attack israel on oct 7 there wouldn't be an invasion either. and most of all the most hypocrite of all you blame western country's for turning a blind eye on gaza while the middle east is doing the same for 2 years longer on ukraine.
This is what happens when you have dim politicians
Turned a blind eye? They are supplying the bullets.
@@DutchFR1908-rj2jz Wrong. The west and partners were the biggest customers. Now India and China ARE the biggest customers with the west STILL purchasing Russian oil and metals despite their claims and sanctions. So your argument is nonsense.
Secondly Palestinian land is under international law being illegally occupied by Israel. And under international law the party being occupied has the legal right to resistance by any means including by violence. The occupier has no legal right to self defence and the fact that the west is watching and supplying Israel with weapons to help the occupier slaughter the occupied is a perversion and violation of international law. And Israel has been occupying Palestinian land for Decades and the Palestinians have been resisting said occupation for that same length of time....much much longer than the 2 years of the Russo Ukrainian war.
So your entire Zionist rant is absurd nonsense.
This guy says that Russia is in a worse position economically before the war and World bank says that Russia is now a high income country. These so called experts just say whatever come to mind even if it make sense or not.
high income? maybe compared to Liberia or the Congo
@@valhalla4752Do you even know how to use an abacus board? Easy does it little boy, learn how to count first!👍🏻
@@valhalla4752read the worlds bnk report dummy
If he sings praises of Russia his bread will stop.
Spoke absolute nonsense.
If it's just GDP calculation, fiscal spending on military or domestic road infrastructure should show up as government expenditure. But the long-term social, political, or economic impact from the war is difficult to know whether in Russia, Ukraine, or Israel.
This guy is deluded
China and Russia have increased ties. No credibility when an analyst ignores that
Papa poopin holds your bag.
@@MarincaGheorghedrug joe buden gay is that you?
What concrete steps has China taken to support Russia?
It's just politics .. Russia and China are not friends.
Russia has been upgraded to up income country. So much for Russia economic disaster.
They can't afford to continue this war for too much longer! Facts
All the world stands with Russia except Nato
How is he confidently declaring that "Russia is more isolated"
Thanks for the laugh
You know fully well that Ukraine won't get the land back so what is the need of the fight
Hold up one minute. Isn't Russia currently the 4th biggest economy in thr world according to thr IMF and World Bank? Whats this guy smoking? Ukraine will run out of soldiers before Russia does and that says it all.
maybe it's first or 2nd with oligarchs and pro putin people beign the richest of the world but as economy its 8th after France.
Ukraine is a democracy? LOL
Zelensky and the west are all corrupt! They want the west to take all the lithium and minerals in Ukraine ! This is a war of the west against Russia! The west are simply using Ukrainian soldiers are they are easily controlled and most of them are ignorant about why they are being sent to their death by an illegitimate puppet president !
I have a plan for the US..
Mind your freaking business!
russia is in central africa, syria, ukraine... if russia ends it imperialist aims, i think the world will leave them alone.
🤣🤣🤣
@paladro what are you smoking
So do Russia! Get out of Ukraine
Get out of UKRAINE
Amazingly whatever he just said it was totally 100% the opposite
I am going to just laugh for one sided propaganda.....I need both sides of propaganda 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Al jazeera should bring independent analysts not pentagon spokes man
he lost me when he said ukraine is a democracy! and later will become more democratic by joining EU! what a joke
Replace Russia with Israel & Ukraine with Palestine & Putin with Netanyahu and Ian will flip completely
This guy is delusional. Russia is a democracy, more so than the US.
Why is Al Jazeera censoring me for saying Putin assassinates his more popular political opponents, arrests the press for speaking out against his policies, and arrests all his dissenting citizens. How is this a democracy?
@MrJoebrooklyn - and Russia has every right to protect it's soveriegnty over the fascists that control Ukraine.

Ask Putin you $$hole!
That amount is much smaller compared to what Russia will gain from her new acquire land
😂 homeboy said ukraine has a harder time forcing young men from remote parts to fight and as he puts it ' human traffic' than russia bcz its a democracy... sir they should not be engaging in anything like that to begin with being a democracy. Where do they grt these guys? I could have done a better job defending the western rhetoric
Look at America and Europe are they doing well.
After Afghanistan Iraq Syria Pakistan and many other countries it doesn’t make sense to ask that does America has a plan in Ukraine.they never do.
"Ukraine is a democracy.".....now that is a fiction !😂
This man is delayrus
Fromthe time they shoed-in their first female prime minister (USA trained, clothed and supported) they've had a plan for Ukraine: to sow dissent and collect intel for the war on Russian sovereignty.
What is being produced in those 169 US labs in Ukraine that can't be produced in America by American workers? I'd REALLY like to know.
Sanctioning of Russia brought about a decline in petrodollar and expulsion of the western military in the Sahel region
Russian strategy is smart.
If you change the belligerents in Europe to their respective equivalents in the Middle East, all this discourse falls apart since they will change the narrative vis-a-vis.
His face while stating that Russia is losing globally is as delussional as his words. Just sad...
Yes the Europeans had a lot more to lose… and already lost it 7:45
So according to this guy only Two countries support russia ?
But he forgot to mention the trade volume which has increased between Russia- brazil-saudi arabia-uae- china - india - iran and many more.
YEAH LIKE THEY SAID THAT RUSSIANS ARE RETREATING FORWARD AND UKRAINIANS ARE ADVANCING BACKWARDS...😂😂😂😂😂
What about the breach of the "International law" regarding West Bank, or Kosovo or Golan, Ian.
Question, if Russia is illegally occupying Ukraine , What is Isreal doing to the Palestinians????????😢
The basic point the guy making is: it is Ukrainians dying there, not Americans, not Britains, everything is gong well.
They're eating those giant fab3000 bombs
Wow ...now I get it...see how the hatred have embedded
Do these analysts live on a different planet? Clearly, this one is delusional.
BRICS block is what is Expanding....But, Okayyyy.
Dude it is not gonna be a stalemate
Ukraine is a democracy but Russia isn’t?
Are there elections in Ukraine or is it rules by a military junta?
Al Jazeera is pretty much aligned with the west on the issues of Russia Ukraine war.
According to Ian Russian are losing forward and Ukraine is winning backwards 😂😂😂
this is so bad and fake that
i will never tune in to The Bottom Line rubbish , never again,
US / America calls it "Liberation" instead of "Invasion". That was what US call it in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Yemen, Somalia and the list goes on... Why the double standard? Confused... Please enlighten. Genuine question...

This guy is still in a state of denial. He can't accept reality
It’s hard to see this man blabbing about a bunch of words against Russia to finally admit Ukraine is in a tough spot. It was a terrible gamble to throw all of the west credibility behind an underdog fighting a much bigger much stronger and determined adversary. Now nobody is willing to bear the shame of defeat even though they all know that all hope is lost. The longer this goes on the worse it’ll keep getting for Ukraine.
When the excuses start flowing freely and the finger pointing starts in earnest, you can be sure the end is near.
How come the economy is doing good 😂😂😂
West: Ukraine is a democracy.
Me: The Sun rises in the West.
Yes. Idiocy. Look at the global south and take cues 😂 The is now geopolitically multipolar. The quicker these neocons accept that reality, the better
Bremmer seems pretty predjudiced a Western apologist I think.
The level of the US national debt cannot be maintained, the country's authorities must take some action. This was announced on July 2 by the head of the Federal Reserve System (FRS) of the United States Jerome Powell, speaking at a forum at the European Central Bank (ECB) in Sintra.
"The path we are following is unacceptable, there is no doubt about it. This should be the focus of how we get back on a path that we can maintain. In the long run, we need to do something. It is better to do this sooner than later," he said in response to a moderator's question about the level of the US national debt. The broadcast was conducted by CNBC.
Ukraine never had nuclear weapons that belonged to them and nowhere in the Budapest Memorandum does it say that the United States would protect Ukraine for giving Soviet nuclear weapons back to Russia.
Americans are occupying Indian territory ……. What’s the difference?
Ukraine is already partitioned. The clown in Kiev so desperate.
The nukes wasn't for Ukraine and Ukraine has no way of deployed them, Silly!
You'd expect Al Jazeera to offer an alternative to CNN. But their aspiration seems to be the CNN of Asia. 😅
Propaganda. Most of the Russians that left came back.
Sham on you the west
I guess the situation is such that nobody wants to lose. But eventually something breaks.
Which land did they get back?
Americans dont want others to suffer 😂😂😂😂
He really said Russia lost million soldiers
Yeah, he said what he thought to be the case. Just that what he thought was no more than his own wish thinking.
Why expand Nato into Russian borders?
Apparently, Saddan did not have nuclear weapons of mass distraction😮...
Actually Russian economy is doing great.
His eyebrow and forehead said it all
Bremmer is off his rocker about the Yuan. It is not only convertible, but increasingly so outside of the US dollar regime and SWIFT. I guess this is a case where he needs to defend the analysis he sells to clients locked into the Dollar regime.
I can't believe there are people who are still delusional about this Russian/Ukrainian war. A year from now i would love to hear thi guy's opinion.
4:45 YT does not allow truth about which country blew up the NordStream Pipelines that provided inexpensive gas to the EU, but let's say that the US liquified natural gas exports to the EU multiplied exponentially, with enormous cost to EU manufacturing and home heating users, and huge profits for US LNG producers. So, in that context, Russian oil and gas exports were diminished.
Bremmer's tale is quite old. After the abject failure of the Zap counteroffensive and the constantly ramping Russian military pressure since late 2023, leading to a growing list of Ukrainian frontline strongpoints falling, it is folly to keep referring to Ukrainians taking back territory. The counteroffensive in Kharkov was the high point of Ukraine's military efforts and it took place in autumn 2022. The situation is bad.
Thanks Aljazeera for providing a marvelous platform for us to read the Comments section. the comments are informative and meet media ethics guidelines.
Ukraine is definitely not a democracy. 8:27
This is propaganda, and possibly also lies…
He lost me at if you look at the world. Do they realize how the BRICS alliance is growing, do yhey imagine Russian economy growth figures come out of thin air. The NATO countries are the ones who are getting smaller and incidentally they are the ones in need. If elections are anything to go by, Russia is stable the West on the other hand has snap elections to curb emerging sentiments of discontent.
8:12 a democracy without elections 😏
Al jazeera reporting on Gaza 9/10.
Al Jazeera reporting on Ukraine 1/10.
Let no country has its assets in the west. This is a lesson for all.
The willingness for Europe to inflict itself pain to hurt Russia is minimal??? Ian Bremmer, have you been in Europe lately? Do you know the energy prices and cost of basic needs? Have you seen the swing to far right in all the countries and how their protectionism is going to bring down Europe further?
What happens when you keep pushing somebody into a corner
