- "The Ukrainians will have in mind the type of targets they want to use it against it might be Kerch Bridges is number one on the priority list."
Germany could be one step closer to providing Taurus missiles that Ukraine is likely to use to build on it's strikes on the Kerch Bridge, says RUSI's Matthew Savill.

Well, being that the Kerch bridge is partially on Ukraine territory, it's no problem hitting it with anyone's weapons - right?
Putin built Kerch Bridge without planning permission, it has to be demolished..
Times Radio, please can you sort out your volume levels mix. I like your content etc.... but either the interviewer or intervie'es volumes are way out of balance. Thank you :) ie, ones too loud -vs- cant hear the other one. Otherwise great, thanks
The Germans need to stop channelling Angela Merkel and show some leleadership.
She still gets a salary from Gasprom!
@@dirkaminimo4836 Funny, no one gets paid by Gazprom...
Why, Merkal is my nanny (worst luck)?
My understanding is that the Bundestag is all for supplying the Taurus cruise-missile to Ukraine but it's that coward Oscar Scholz who's blocking the transfer, so time for the Bundestag to override Scholz or remove him from office and replace him with someone who has a spine.
Funny Germany. Heavy industry's. Wait a minute, You're telling me we have to pay 3x for energy.😂
The guest's audio really sux. He needs to find a place without all the echo.
What a guy can't even conduct an interview from his glass dome anymore?
@Lyle-In-NO
The echo is bad.
The volume difference is even more an issue.
To hear the guest speaker, the volume is blasting from the host.
He also needs a better microphone that can be moved closer to his face. That would help reduce the reverberation of the background room ambience.
The Times should stop interviewing this guy until the audio is fixed.
Sounds the lobby of an office building.
Right? There are others in his organization who hold meetings in the exact same spot! Do they not realize how horrible it is for meetings?
Hey Times: please fix this guy's audio before doing further interviews.
You need to get him a better microphone that he can move closer to his face.
The current set-up makes it difficult when the listener is also in a noisy environment.
as long as Scholz is Chancellor, the Germans are never going to supply Taurus 🚀
Only if Biden tells him to
I don't think Chancellor Scholz will win in next election. German voters can see that he's weak leader. FYI he won't send Taurus missiles to Ukraine ever.
They need other things before Taurus.
Scholz knows that the writing is already on the wall here for Ukraine, and Berlin plans reestablish dialogue with Moscow sooner or later at some capacity to ensure German industrial competitiveness, in relation to energy and industrial raw materials from Russia, because their large Asian manufacturing rivals already have that advantage.
@user-tq9vk4vt5p There is no better way to boost sales than have your weapons proven in battle. For example no one will ever buy a Russian tank again due to poor performance on the battle field.
Acoustics!
Could you please give the gest a good mic?
Or try telling him into drawing his desk with the mic five meters closer 😂
Hey how bad can you make your audio? Hm well what if I record in a glass dome? 🤔 Great, let's do this!! 😊🙌
Bad audio on Mr Savill.
This is just a repeat of extracts from an earlier video. Please stop wasting my time.
the germans are trying to play both sides in this. they dont want to upset the rusians in case they can get their cheap energy back BUT they know the bear needs to be put down. pretty sad how two faced they are.
"the germans are trying to play both sides in this." Sultan Erdogan also.
It’s not the Germans. Just a bad chancellor
Germany is no longer buying cheap gas from Russia, they get it from somewhere else.
@@lawrencekling8598 but it’s not cheap anymore.
Germany is one of the biggest contributers to Ukraine, And there economy has taken the biggest hit,America is the biggest benefactor of this war, That's just the fact of the matter,
Clearly no one from the times ever reads all the complaints about audio levels. It has become a standing joke amongst people who watch the many Ukraine war blogs. Jake Broe, Silicon Bytes, Starsky, Denys Davidoff, Anders Puck Nielson, Artur Rehi, Anna from Ukraine, Georgis, all small bloggers with consistently good audio.
What? Huh? I can't hear u. Too much damn echo? Huh?
I appreciate the interviewee’s remarks, but the horrible audio quality makes it very difficult to understand them over the echo and background noise.
❤Ukrainian ❤
Ya. Heres to the new "de facto" dictator. As of May 21 2024, Zelensky is no longer the legitimate President. He is a dictator who is refusing to step down although his term is finished. What a great democratic country!!
lol it's the guy in the glass echo chamber on the sun!!!!
German “Tourist” missiles? That sounds unethical.
"That sounds unethical."
All depends on the 'tourist', I'd have thought!🙂
Can't listen to this. WHY CAN'T A *RADIO STATION* GET THE SOUND BALANCE RIGHT!!!
Why do many of the people being interviewed start every sentence by saying (SO) …
couple of really good points by Matthew Savill, thanks. The collective west must up its game : less bla bla, more real help for brave Ukraine ( Taurus, Gripens, F16 et al).
Very lucid account, thank you.
Ah, the 'so'' man. He can't begin a sentence without one.
The bridge is in range of atacms.
Just a matter of time before span after span gets dropped. Putin will be so disappointed.
@@jim2376 the fact that the bridge is still there for 3 years running means Ukraine have failed to knock it coz I'm sure that's the top priority for them.. Their efforts are no avail at the moment
@@icemanzw Failed spin. The weapons haven't been there. Now they are. Stay tuned.
Ukraine has proven that they can trustworthy. It's not like they are going to target civilian. It's bad enough that the Republicans held up the aid package for so long.
Cursed Republicans ! They are Russian supporters all !
BTW I'm American.
Trustworthy 31k is trustworthy
Russia ground force has air support while Ukraine ground force have noting, the playing field is not level 😢
Russia don't use airforce like that anyways their airforce is on the sidelines
That is why the Russian commanders are complaining about the lack of air support and air reconnaissance to the Russian command staff...
@@ickebins6948 good Russia don't need to use your so called air power doctrine
@@icemanzw Don't tell me that...
Tell that the russian commanders at the front... They are the ones complaining.
@@ickebins6948 nothing but propaganda you don't know That are you part of Russia army
Too much echo
On 6/5/24 The UK signalled (in a coded response in the Independent 6/5/24) that we "no longer regard the bridge as of logistical importance to Russia". Draw your own conclusions about the nature and level of threats Sergei Lavrov made to the ambassadors of the UK, US, France etc on 5/5/24 regarding our missiles being used against Russian territory. The French (for Macron's recent bellicosity) were ordered to send their ambassador to Putin's reinauguration ceremony (he was the sole Western diplomat in attendance).
Another video from you guys with another expert who has terrible audio quality. Seriously get a microphone your laptop is not enough.
Any time restrictions are mentioned when a war is being waged, not good. Ukraine give up now
The guest was very informative informative informative.

Why was the USA so successful during the Cold War?
It implemented the Marshall Plan to economically strengthen its partners in Europe.
The USA was the largest economy and opened its market to the products of its allies.
The USA offered its allies a security umbrella with nuclear deterrence through NATO.
As a result, America managed to push back the influence of the Soviet Union on Europe and ultimately win the Cold War.
The alliance between Western Europe and the USA is proving difficult these days.
For example, Germany follows a mercantilist economic model and is therefore dependent on cheap energy and large export markets.
Russia and China can provide both of these for Western Europe like no other country.
The USA, on the other hand, is becoming increasingly less important as an economic partner.
And since the collapse of the Soviet Union, there is no serious military threat from Russia to Western Europe.
Nevertheless, tens of thousands of American soldiers are still stationed on German soil in hundreds of US military bases and US nuclear weapons.
If you look at the situation objectively from the US perspective, America is protecting Europe from the countries with which it has close trade relations.
Europe's core interest, however, is to further expand its economic relations with the USA's biggest competitors.
Don't be blinded by the politicians' rhetoric.
Feelings, shared history, values, culture and traditions play no role at all in whether alliances really work.
What matters is whether the interests coincide.
And it turns out that the interests of Europe and the USA can no longer be reconciled today and this partnership will soon end.
Who is this guy?
Hersay (spreading rumours), still holds the death sentence here in Great Britain!
He’s a backup singer with an ABBA tribute band.
A good interview with a careful man
I haven’t heard the argument against using Tomahawk cruise missiles.
Does Ukraine have LRFL launchers?
@@mark-ishno. Not even soldiers. All dead. All 600 000 of them. Sad. Because US wants regime change in Russia .
NATO talk the talk, but don't walk, the walk, which is why Russia views NATO as being weak. ❤ 🇺🇦
NATO have been told-off by The British.
The talking is being done by Storm Shadows, ATACMS, and Scalps. They talk quite loudly and effectively.
NATO is a DEFENSIVE organisation you FOOL. No NATO member has been attacked by Russia.
@@user-tf6mu6qf6e indeed, but we should 'talk' more to drown out the noise of Russian trolls.
nothing on target lol
The fact that the bridge is still working fine means Russia has successfully repel the attacks so far at least give them credit for that.. Russia top priority so far is to defend the bridge and they are doing great at the moment I'm sure Ukraine have tried many times by firing missles and sea drones by no avail
Been hit in the past and will go down in the future…
What kind of talk that is? Changing or invitation of WWII? remember every countries have their own safety and defense.
3³
They people are all dreamers lol. Walking around in a day dream
Most of SPD is russia friendly
NATO the Allied of cowardness, that's the truth
NATO is a DEFENSIVE Organisation you FOOL. No NATO member has been attacked by Russia.
Ukraine isn't in nato
@@nathd1748defensive????? So why expand across the map?? Why i. n. v a. d. e so many countries, why weaponise your currency to be used in 88% of the worlds oil deals??? Defensive??? What a joke
Why can't Ukraine join NATO now if there's going to be a war any way and put Putin on notice to leave ukraine on a certain date in the long run theres no difference because theres going to be a war i know nothing about war and politics but. The outcome is going to be the same
More villages lost while being obsessed with some bridge
Taking out their logistics routes makes the Russians far less effective allowing you to defend a take back more villages
Horrible audio
WHY do we push to start WW III? Russia saved the world from WW III couple of times, but their patience may one day run out if they feel attack is imminent. Does anyone remember Cuban Missile Crisis? Seems to me like last year. And we have now missiles right on Russian border from Turkey in south to Baltic States in the north. WHY?
It's just a matter of time before Putin loses his treasured bridge.
*Officially Zelenksi is a Ditactor* according to definition of democracy. The West supported ditactor
Well that's just incorrect; he was elected during peacetime and their constitution allows for the suspension of elections during an unwarranted war of aggression by an invading foreign army
Well said. Ya. Heres to the new "de facto" dictator. As of May 21 2024, Zelensky is no longer the legitimate President. He is a dictator who is refusing to step down although his term is finished. What a great democratic country!!
Lame russian propaganda.
No, he was elected.
@@Kodakcompactdiscit’s the truth. His term ended. He cancelled all elections. He now won’t leave that is the definition of a dictator
‼️🔥NATO 는.. 현재 고가 미사일 전력이 우크라이나에 필요 한게 아니라, 🇷🇺🇺🇦 전쟁 전선에 포탄(155mm) 이 당장 지급되어야 한다.. 🤔
Hey Brits,
The Ukranian embassy is open.
60 Holland Park.
A tube stop away.
You can actually walk there.
The Ukranians are hiring.
Need a job?
Want to show off to your boyfriend?
Show off to the lady at your favorite supermarket?
Wanna show of that new Ukranian uniform?
Wear that sucker all over London and get a new boyfriend.
Enjoy
Russia has weapons caches in the occupied territories. Those weapons are being used to eliminate what troops Ukraine has. But instead of using the NATO missiles to save the lives of the few soldiers they have. Ukraine wastes the missiles on a bridge that doesn't matter or a worthless long distance "target" in Russia proper.
If it does not matter, why do the Russians work so hard to defend it!
Logistics wins wars; compromise the logistics and you compromise the enemies fighting ability
@@Boghopper9999 lol russia bypassed the kerch bridge months ago and expending irreplaceable hardware just to maintain the media narrative is a really bad sign.
Look up the word, "acoustics". Are you some sort of amateur?
Okay, they are refurbishing older gear. They teach mechanics and engineers this way. Don’t mock. They have the wheels of industry spinning with a big jump on the West, much of which still doesn’t see what’s coming.
To much Gazprom money in German politics.
If the Kerch bridge is attacked, then Russian forces will retaliate by taking out the Dnipro dam causing many billions worth of damage and utter devastation down stream.
ukraine sent attacks as far as Kazan 1,000km
Have we lost our minds? Ukraine is desperate and willing to do anything but the rest of the world needs to have enough common sense not to follow them down the nuclear rat hole. We’re putting WW3 on the table as a possible outcome and that’s crazy. There’s no strategic interest for the West regarding who governs some provinces in Ukraine and we never should have gotten involved. It was a terrible mistake to pass up the negotiated settlement in early 2022.
Sounds to me like the best move is for Putin to send what's left of his "army" home
@@rogerwilco5918 They are at home, read the names of the places on the map.
@@alexanderlazarev3570 those words don't mean a whole lot to me, I'm looking at that big line they call a border
@@alexanderlazarev3570 Whatever man the USSR is gone Russia has no right to any of Ukraine or anywhere else.
@@mikejones6065 This is the root of the problem that you are separately restricting the rights of some people against the others.
🚀🚀🚀🚀-> ruzzia
UK thinks it stands a chance against Russia or America will come and help 🤣🤣🤣
Putin won’t attack a NATO member.
2+ years into a misadventure into Ukraine, you really think Russia could take on an additional 32 countries in parallel?
@@Boghopper9999yes 2+ years into a SMO to demilitarise 🇺🇦.. 🇷🇺 isn’t 🇺🇸 they don’t b. o. m. b everyone and everything, you think that’s weakness
@@Boghopper9999 I know Russia can make 32 countries dissappear, that's for sure
😂🤣
another "red line" crossed, another reason to laugh at the joke rushn' "army"😂
NATO should stop this now. Enough must be enough. Otherwise, this will go on forever since Russia, with Putin, already lost this "special operation" a long time ago. Continuing like this... cpuld even be an advantage for Moscow and, especially, for China.
What's the point in prolonging this ?
Unfortunately west is bound "not to win" in any case.
Nah, the funny participant here is Putin. No path to a win, and can not afford to lose.
@@stream2watch You will have to. "Wrong side of road". God and evil. I wouldnt have said if I were not Russian born Ukrainian, now living in Britain. I can see your (nothing personal of course) cynical and pathetic nature. And the way west is trying to ruin the world basically. All for the sake of big bucks. Do you know how many people on both sides were killed in this war. Blame Putin - its easy.
@@stream2watch Putin only had one plan and that was to have Russian troops
goose stepping down Khreshchatyk Street in Kyiv in a matter of days and when that
disastrously fell through , he's been playing it by ear since.
If by divine intervention , the little war criminal managed to take all or part of Ukraine , he's
clueless on how to hold a nation of people who now genuinely hate him and
anything Russian. From this point forward , Ukraine is bad mojo for one Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin.
@@atticusfredericks6210Actually I am the one starting that war (on Russia's side), but can you tell me how it is possible to have a psychological profile of somebody that you don't even know based on rumours, and heresay, please?
@@DarrenJamiesonJamieson Not based on rumors or hearsay , simple observation. You don't need the psychological profile of an absolute ruler to know how he operates. He's surrounded by yes men who feed him what he wants to hear --- he is beyond reproach , never criticized , no oversight and hides behind one of , if not THE largest propaganda machines in the world , churning out lies and distortions 24/7 .
His decision to launch the full-scale invasion of Ukraine was based on a series of disastrous miscalculations .... the greatest believing Ukrainians and Russians are one people , who were artificially separated by the fall of the USSR.
Far from welcoming Russia’s invasion, the Ukrainian nation united and rose up in resistance. Now that he's been slapped in the face with reality , Putin's propagandists attempt to paint Ukrainians as not Russian , rather sub-human , less than , a bunch of Nazeees and people (who in truth lived side-by-side with ethnic Russians & little problem) were committing genocide and atrocities on poor ethnic Russians.
It's sad knowing how great Russia could be
without a ruler using the blood and misery of millions in an attempt for self aggrandizement.
Propaganda
No thanks; saw RT once before and it was garbage so I decided to ignore propaganda from now on
@@Boghopper9999you think people get there information from RT?? 🤣 try alternative media my friend where actual real people share information.
