- Russians go to the polls today in the first presidential election since their country invaded Ukraine two years ago.
The war was expected to carry a steep cost for President Vladimir V. Putin. Valerie Hopkins, who covers Russia for The Times, explains why the opposite has happened.
Guest: Valerie Hopkins (www.nytimes.com/by/valerie-ho...) , an international correspondent for The New York Times.
Background reading:
• Mr. Putin, in pre-election messaging, was less strident on nuclear war (www.nytimes.com/2024/03/13/wo...) .
• What to know (www.nytimes.com/2024/03/14/wo...) about Russia’s 2024 presidential vote.

Sabrina, it undermines your credibility when you are constantly amazed, astounded, stunned, dumbfounded, flabbergasted, shocked, stupefied, dumbstruck, thunderstruck, and surprised. But kudos to your guest.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 oh...thank you for that precise critique!
Gobsmacked.
@@mitchyoung93 Right... forgot that one.
22:07 commendable for speaking the truth.
no video, amazing! i guess that's just TMI.
Wow bot city 😂
If the U.S. had given Ukraine everything it needed at the outset, this war would have been over a year ago, and everyone (including the Russian people) would have been better off.
Yes, since Ukraine couldnt afford to defend themselves like everyone else because.... they're poor in resources,?uneducated? No, they're corrupt. They're terribly horribly corrupt. THAT'S Ukraine. Poland spent 3 times on their defense to that of Ukraine and they don't even share a 1,400 mile border with Russia. And they're 2/3 the size of Ukraine Face it. You've found idiots stupid and corruptable and bigoted enough to think they could beat up Russia for you. Has that worked? No
@MrTeff999 Yes, what the Ukraine needed was a go ahead to negotiate a peace deal based on the terms of April 2022. Neutrality, autonomy for Donbas.
I appreciate the effort of this journalist, but an rudimentary analysis of the Russian or at least the Slavic cultural mindset, would have been useful.
Hopefully more westerners will hear this. This is not Putin's war. Russians are also victims of the tsar's imperial ambition, but they are not innocent.
Is this real or is like your syria podcast where you just had a guy make a bunch of shit up?
The latter
the former
False binary
🇺🇸 🫂 🇺🇦
Don't fall in love with a country. You will be disappointed. People are people.
@@twyckoff87people are people but a cultural mindset is hard to change.
Stoopid moose and squirrel always messing up my plans 😡
Strange how the first part of this piece shows how the vast majority of Russians support Putin and indirectly the war, but the majority of the report is focused on the small minority who don't support Putin. And there is so much 'repression' in Russia that this reporter was allowed to travel all around the country and into the countryside. Also, the 12:00 Sunday protest was a flop.
There’s something about the way Sabrina says her last name
[1] please stop describing other humans as orcs
[2] whereever you are, never believe "we have to fight them over there in order not to fight them over here"
Translation: "Let Russia do as it pleases in Ukraine"
Why can't you fascist sympathisers just be honest about what you want?
@@BenersantheBread The Russians in Ukraine believed "fight them over there in order not to fight them over here", don't you think
@@moxinghbian Ukraine did not have any intentions of joining NATO until the annexation of Crimea, even after that and the subsequent totally-not-invasions neutrality was far more popular.
It was only after the current invasion that joining NATO became popular as it became evident that no amount of treaties or appeasements was going to sate Putin's imperialist aims.
Besides NATO does not pose a threat to Russia, if it had Russia would've easily been annihilated during the messy collapse of the Union. The only thing NATO does is prevent Russia from invading its members. Every member state of NATO joined willingly because they knew they were under threat by Russian imperialism.
Do you agree with the bombardment of civilians by Russia?
@@moxinghbianyes because big bad Ukraine was just about to march on Moscow before Russia invaded
@@MrJakejonesy Clearly some or lots of Russians probably believed that.
Times ain’t much for honesty - and they are worse for integrity. I’m a 62 year old nyr
Listening to your report from Russia, it’s quite accurate.
This piece v. the scam Tucker Carlson made, truly a dichotomy.
@phila1448 How so? Eighty percent of the Russian Federation's population lives in cities like the first place visited in this piece. Carlson represented the true picture for most Russians.
@@mitchyoung93 I would first say the economics and secondly the law and order piece.
Somehow, I just don’t believe this.
It would be more helpful for our media to focus on Biden’s and Trump’s America. That’s where our problems lay not in Russia.
The year’s US elections are the most important elections for Putin’s continued success. If Trump and his GOP win, Putin wins.
God Bless Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin 🇷🇺🙏💞
Go to Russia unannounced, try it in real life.
Luckily, god does not exist.
