Thanks for mentioning Denys Davidov and providing some background. I've listened to Denys since the beginning. He's sometimes overly emotional & dire, which I haven't been able to understand. But I believe he's a loyal Ukrainian and is entitled to that. As such, I value his efforts and opinion - it's a useful contrast to more objective/ detached professional journalists. However, I've never understood why he's so very anti-Zelensky. Thanks for helping me to understand better with compassion. Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦 🇺🇸
You are absolutely correct about upholding peace. Peace can only be achieved thru strength. There should be no handout to those not happy with their conditions. Freedom must be fought for by the people, not enforced by the strong hand in countries that are not democratic. Humanitarian aid is different. But no country has the right to enforce it's system of government on anyone.
For those interested in the Witch (Olha Bihar), she is commander in Ukraine's 241 Kyiv TDF Brigade (Territorial Defense Forces) commanding a mortar battery. She has been fighting at Chasiv Yar (maybe still is). She posted 1 week ago something on social media (she doesn't post daily).
The argument that Europe is too far away from the US to affect America was the same argument used during WW2 until Japan attacked Pearl Harbour, China could easily do exactly the same thing to US military in the Pacific if they think they can. Japan thought Hitler's war in Europe was enough distraction during WW2 and China may see Ukraine as exactly the same.
I voted for Biden and I agree with you on everything here- my anger at him and Sullivan is just growing stronger and stronger. So much was lost by their pathetic attempts at appeasing putin ! They'll go down in history as the " team that wasted 3 years '!
From Havana Florida, I totally agree with you! I was a big Biden fan, but I am increasingly feeling angry about his administration. Thing is, I don't like either political branch at this point, nor social media.
In the beginning the Biden admin was careful, probing and progressively calling Putin's nuclear bluff. Later it feared an attack on US servicemen with an attack on eg, troops in Syria, compromising re-election. The elections were lost anyway, possibly fraudulently.
I hope Ukrainians understand how Zelensky went from a comedian to finding more strength and ability in himself that has few equals in History. Much of what he does is driven by his style and drive. If it was anyone else I have doubts Ukraine would have gotten much. Cometh the time cometh the man. We should also remember that Ukraine has lost many of the "first adopter" soldiers who had the fire in their belly. The ones going in now might not be motivated at that level and perform lower. Perfectly normal cycle. The military must just recognize that fact and train up. 24/7.
And I hope people dig a little deeper and actually learn more about Zelensky's career before presidency. He was not just some "comedian". He was-is -a true artistic genius, as an actor and a writer and producer. His political satire was brilliant, as hilarious as it is profound. There are few people of his caliber out there. And all that amazing genius is showing in his work as a politician now.
You can see the world the way it is,it's pleasing to see someone with a clear mind,much the same as mine,i also use the Eff word quite a lot sometimes when i get frustrated with others stupidity
Love you too Georjii. I wish I could play your answer about the Russians toward the end to EVERYONE. People don't GET IT and you make it so clear, thank you. (A woman listener btw! 😉) Слава Україні 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
Mark Rutte said that ruSSia spending minimum 8% gdp on military and they are already producing 24/7, and that NATO countries must look at spending minimum 4% gdp to create peace through strength.
US has for many years thousands of tons of military gear stashed away. Stuff which could have benefitted Ukraine no end yet they chose not to ship it.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Some things the US does doesn't make sense, they spent millions decommissioning long range missiles that had reached their use by date, I can't understand why they didn't send them yo Ukraine.
If Biden wanted to win the war against Russia he could have easily done this by giving Ukraine everything they needed plus. The U.S. has plenty of weapons they will never use but withheld from Ukraine's military. He more or less stabbed Zelensky in the back and tied his hands. I agree with Georgijs. I follow politics and have always been sad about what the country, I live in, has done to the people in other countries and to their own people. I believe in Ukraine and their budding democracy. Slava Ukraini !
I agree! I think he is just too old and more interested in keeping everything as it was instead of what it should be. So sorry to you and the Ukrainians!
General Deny’s view on the war is squeed by his view from Switzerland. Deny doesn’t like the idea that Zelensky was elected. He gets his war info from disgruntled pilots like him that didn’t get to fly fighter jets . He should be back in Ukraine defending his country. Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦
I watch Denys to pick the crap out of what he says He quit often gets things wrong and all too often says the military is not doing the job properly and it makes me sick He doesn’t want to be in Ukraine but thinks he knows better than those fighting the war
@TimD-ny6ks still follow but.. am trying to weigh his value to his country being a you tuber as opposed to being in the Ukranian military. He is a trained PASSENGER pilot which means safety of both aircraft and primarily passengers are important beyond anything else . He has been following the war from the beginning and now is another armchair general with limited overview strategy That brutally said ..great and relevant insights and I wholeheartedly follow him daily !! GOOD ON YA DENYS anything else.
The problem with Dennis is he criticizes the Ukrainian government and Army and does nothing if I was a pilot I'd be fighting for my country just my opinion
14:30 Macron may have talked to the Polish first because they may need more time to convince. Don't assume that the Nordic and Baltic states will be excluded from an upcoming coalition of the willing.
It is so sad that the politicians are so afraid of taking independent stand without blessing by USA why not shit or get off the pot .my best wishes for your recovery and health take care🥰👋🇩🇰🇨🇦👨🏼🦳
I'm a bit surprised to hear all the zelenskyy hate... as an outsider i can tell you that for the most part, people around the world absolutely adore him. I get that internal politics are a thing, and not every domestic voter will favor him, but globally, he is regarded as a hero. He turned down evacuation and instead requested ammo. He regularly visits the front lines to interact with his soldiers. He works tirelessly to go to every meeting, summit, forum that he can to meet with as many world leaders as he can to garner as much support for his country as he possibly can (Which is exactly what he should be doing, imo). How much international aid has Ukraine received off the back of Zelenskyy's tireless efforts? Ukraine has been hit with a lot of bad luck, but I would argue they have been extraordinarly lucky to have had a president like Zelenskyy in office when this tragedy befell them. A lesser president would have abandoned them and this war would already be over. I've been observing this war *every, single, day* since it began, and I'm of the opinion that without Zelenskyy's actions, Ukraine would already have fallen. I'd love to see people cut the guy a break, he's literally saving Ukraine.
Unfortunately the current situation on the war in Ukraine and the general political attitude of the European nations and the rest of the free world towards it seems to resemble and is a carbon copy of how WWII began. Sad and unfortunate. By the way, your comment about the US involvement and Joe Biden are spot on!

Hi Georgjis, I love your frankness, information, and avidly follow you, so I'm taking the time to dispel one of your frustrations -- why Zelensky refuses to mobilize women, unlike countries like Israel. First, Zelensky is not a misogynist: just look at powerful public role Olena Zelenska has. So I am betting that what he'd say is that, to save Ukraine, he must both protect and rebuild the physical land, AND also save Ukrainians to preserve the culture and to rebuild the population! Even before the full-scale invasion, Ukraine been working to reverse a demographic crisis (fertility ~1.0) and the war has obviously not helped (just look up this year's UNFPA report "Amid the war, Ukraine is facing a demographic crisis"). Even if one could guarantee a post-war recovery and population boom, just imagine the disruption to school systems and society if the boom were preceded by a 2-5 year gap with very few children). Second, your observation that Israel conscripts both genders -- it's a completely different context! Israel has a young population, and they have one of the highest fertility rates (2.5 - 3.5) among developed countries, and till recently it was in peacetime. So Israeli young adults serve for a couple of years, put off fertility into their mid-20s --- but almost all are discharged physically healthy, un-traumatized, and can go on to have large families. It's completely different when you start with an aging population with below-replacement fertility -- and you're in a very hot war of attrition! As a lesser issue, even if one could solve the existential risk of cannibalizing the future population, who would care for the young children with two mobilized parents? Given all the internal displacements, bombings, and an economy on war footing, the childcare infrastructure has gotta be in tatters. What proportion of young families would even have able-bodied grandparents nearby? And what about daytimes? What reforms would be needed to find/train enough older adults (not already employed) who could provide childcare, including dealing with the added trauma to kids *both* of whose parents may be on the front lines?
Is still puzzling thou how conscription age is at 25 where any other Western country has its conscription age between 16 and 18 years, except for France who has it at 20 (if I'm not mistaken). I'm (in general) against war, but there's no denying how top peak physical condition (which is not just strength) starts to decline the closer one gets to their 30s and is only downhill from there on. Mandatory conscription is only in place when your country is being invaded, what's the point of preserving 18-20 years old folks if your country gets conquered by the enemy?
Georgijs, I'm so glad that you are giving the more objective view of the breadth of Zelensky's job is as president. I think he did an amazing job in organizing foreign and domestic support after the full-scale invasion. He is an impressive motivator, and can explain things well. I doubt that anyone else could have gotten more aid out of the risk-averse Western governments. After the full-scale invasion in 2/2022, it became incredibly hard to reform the military at the same time as fighting for Ukraine's life against the Russian Goliath. I wonder if he could have prepared the military more beforehand, to make the generals reorganize the military communication etc. into western-style combined-arms forces. I assume he'd had to first deal with some of the corruption, so that incompetent, corrupt officers would be removed, as well as generals who weren't willing to learn the western military principles?
Dude, I write my Senators and representatives about Ukraine aid all of the time. Kansas is a Republican state but at least 3/5 of them vote for Ukraine aid. Those other two bastards always give reasons why they voted against that sounds like Putin's propaganda or some other bullshit. One of them said he wanted over site of the money so the citizens know what Ukraine is spending the money on. The aren't spending the money, it stay right here in the States to build new weapons to replace what is being sent to Ukraine. He fucking already knows that shit. Anyway, thanks for the news and Q&A that I missed. (I got shit around the house I gotta do 😂.) SLAVA UKRANI HEROYAM SLAVA 🇺🇦 🇺🇲 🇺🇦 🇺🇲 🇺🇦 🇺🇲 🇺🇦 T
Anyone who has even the slightest clue about Putin's track record, and who still thinks that there is a chance that Putin will negotiate "in good faith" is moronic beyond words. Seriously ... that level of clueless is astounding.

Sorry I missed the live stream - was helping my father in law move into a care home. Anyway, hope you feel better soon. The best treatment, if you can find them, is Ricola Green Tea, with Echinacea. It is sugar free, and it works better than anything else I've tried (and I have tried a lot!)
Hi Georgi, I know you are a Slav living in Denmark ( and a great guy to boot) That much is obvious from the way you speak English. Just out of curiosity, from which Slavic nation do you originally hail?
Well said every word on every topic Thanks for schooling the youngsters. My Dad brought many stories with him back from WW2 especially through France so I know how much this conflict matters
It’s not coming to ahead. More executives are going to have to face the music before such a thing has any visible impact on our broken healthcare system. Worst in the developed world by the way.
One thing that is not being talked about is that if you build it, you feel a need to use it. That is why the West is resilient to increasing arms production. It has been shown time and time again that a country with a large army looks for a war to fight. So, the way to stop such wars is to have a small military. Obviously, that can allow other wars to start. And that is why it is so important to stop dictatorships from having large armies.
great conent, i believe the main and more realistic argument for women infantry is that it changes the dynamic of squads on a psychological level. A soldier is more likely to make a bad choice to over protect a female soldier, stuff like that. just adds more variables that u cant control on the battlefield and the battlefield is all about controlling variables.
Only applies if you think the whole army exists of straight guys. That is not very likely and it is not something you can enforce, its not written in someones dna.
you are accurate about Joe Biden. To me, what the U S has done is embarrassing, to say the least. I'm happy with what I have read about the new stance Trump has taken. Let's pray he follows through.
The moron literally got impeached because he was extorting the president of Ukraine to try to get political dirt on Joe Biden’s kid. He will stab Zelinski in the back.
Thanks to the moderators ❤ Interesting points about the Euro groups splitting off. I wonder if they are actually acting as a bridge from the hawkish states to less active? I really hope it is not excluding others. If the bigger states take a stance (hopefully actually doing something) the inactive will follow. The key is The Uk and France need to concentrate on winning. The Uk government is still not getting the message out to the Uk people, priority is getting money for weapons defence and then supporting Ukraine properly 🇺🇦🇬🇧

But I believe he's a loyal Ukrainian and is entitled to that. As such, I value his efforts and opinion - it's a useful contrast to more objective/ detached professional journalists.

First, Zelensky is not a misogynist: just look at powerful public role Olena Zelenska has. So I am betting that what he'd say is that, to save Ukraine, he must both protect and rebuild the physical land, AND also save Ukrainians to preserve the culture and to rebuild the population!

Even if one could guarantee a post-war recovery and population boom, just imagine the disruption to school systems and society if the boom were preceded by a 2-5 year gap with very few children).
Second, your observation that Israel conscripts both genders -- it's a completely different context! Israel has a young population, and they have one of the highest fertility rates (2.5 - 3.5) among developed countries, and till recently it was in peacetime. So Israeli young adults serve for a couple of years, put off fertility into their mid-20s --- but almost all are discharged physically healthy, un-traumatized, and can go on to have large families. It's completely different when you start with an aging population with below-replacement fertility -- and you're in a very hot war of attrition!
As a lesser issue, even if one could solve the existential risk of cannibalizing the future population, who would care for the young children with two mobilized parents?

What proportion of young families would even have able-bodied grandparents nearby? And what about daytimes? What reforms would be needed to find/train enough older adults (not already employed) who could provide childcare, including dealing with the added trauma to kids *both* of whose parents may be on the front lines?
Is still puzzling thou how conscription age is at 25 where any other Western country has its conscription age between 16 and 18 years, except for France who has it at 20 (if I'm not mistaken).
I'm (in general) against war, but there's no denying how top peak physical condition (which is not just strength) starts to decline the closer one gets to their 30s and is only downhill from there on.
Mandatory conscription is only in place when your country is being invaded, what's the point of preserving 18-20 years old folks if your country gets conquered by the enemy?

Sorry I missed the live stream - was helping my father in law move into a care home. Anyway, hope you feel better soon. The best treatment, if you can find them, is Ricola Green Tea, with Echinacea. It is sugar free, and it works better than anything else I've tried (and I have tried a lot!)
Slava Ukraini!
Hi Georgi, I know you are a Slav living in Denmark ( and a great guy to boot) That much is obvious from the way you speak English. Just out of curiosity, from which Slavic nation do you originally hail?
Latvia
thanks mods
❤❤❤
Well said every word on every topic Thanks for schooling the youngsters. My Dad brought many stories with him back from WW2 especially through France so I know how much this conflict matters
Don't expect too much from Merz. He is talking BS all the time.
Yes, we Americans are consumed with our internal political situation. You Europeans have healthcare and we don’t and it’s finally coming to a head.
Is it though?
Ask them how long it takes to see a doctor
@@jchensley1for what
It’s not coming to ahead. More executives are going to have to face the music before such a thing has any visible impact on our broken healthcare system. Worst in the developed world by the way.
I don't know what we expected but it's exactly what we expected ... you said. How can you not know and know at the same time.
32:35 - call a spade is a spade -
Let’s get this mfs channel up to 200k folks
👏👏👏👏👏👏
Where can I get that sweet flag!!
One thing that is not being talked about is that if you build it, you feel a need to use it. That is why the West is resilient to increasing arms production. It has been shown time and time again that a country with a large army looks for a war to fight. So, the way to stop such wars is to have a small military. Obviously, that can allow other wars to start. And that is why it is so important to stop dictatorships from having large armies.
great conent, i believe the main and more realistic argument for women infantry is that it changes the dynamic of squads on a psychological level. A soldier is more likely to make a bad choice to over protect a female soldier, stuff like that. just adds more variables that u cant control on the battlefield and the battlefield is all about controlling variables.
Only applies if you think the whole army exists of straight guys. That is not very likely and it is not something you can enforce, its not written in someones dna.
Hahahaha love you Georgie!!
you are accurate about Joe Biden. To me, what the U S has done is embarrassing, to say the least. I'm happy with what I have read about the new stance Trump has taken. Let's pray he follows through.
Lol
He started by extorting Zalensky and just got worse through his Freedumb Caucus.
Murica and Europe have only helped enough for Ukraine to not lose the war. Seems to me they want to bleed Russia dry.
The moron literally got impeached because he was extorting the president of Ukraine to try to get political dirt on Joe Biden’s kid. He will stab Zelinski in the back.
Thanks to the moderators ❤
Interesting points about the Euro groups splitting off. I wonder if they are actually acting as a bridge from the hawkish states to less active? I really hope it is not excluding others.
If the bigger states take a stance (hopefully actually doing something) the inactive will follow. The key is The Uk and France need to concentrate on winning. The Uk government is still not getting the message out to the Uk people, priority is getting money for weapons defence and then supporting Ukraine properly 🇺🇦🇬🇧
