This is a clip from an interview conducted by Harrison Salisbury and Bill Jersey. Filmed on November 16, 1983.
Nixon was the last great President
Watching this must give Americans some sense of relief, knowing that at some point their President could speak clearly and intelligently.
a guy just speakin his mind honestly… reminds me of Trump🤝‼️💯
Americans need to mind their bussines you all can't figure out what gender you are today! Russia does not have to be another puppet state to the west! they have the right to exist as a superpower okay! and they will always be your enemy and don't have your best interest in mind because they will never submitt to the lies and false naritive the so called free world America gives out! and the only way Russia could ever be your friend is if they gave up trying to be strong because America only wants to be a top dog in this games! and quite honestly a nation that can't figure out its gender and fights over race all the time is not appropriate to be a top dog in this world anymore.
@@dingbat999
No. Trump rambles and has no clue. Nixon actually knew what he was talking about and talks like a human.
@@Pikkabuu if u think theres a difference between the two then ur logic is inherently flawed.
@@dingbat999
Please explain how they are the same.
*“Russians and Americans can be friends and everybody must remember that… but the governments of the United States and the Soviet Union can never be friends because our goals are totally different.”* The essence of realism in international politics. Wish more people would understand this principle. The world would be much safer.
He simply did not mention that the goal end of the сommunists is the survival of mankind in the long term, which is achieved by providing every member of society with opportunities for intellectual work through an equal and therefore the most useful allocation of resources, while the goal of the capitalists is to build an unviable society led by the most vile representatives of the species.
The problem is that the US wants global domination (this is what "Leaders of the free world" means) and Russia wants it's sphere of influence.
Those 2 ideas clash.
Well, constructivism would say that this whole thing is socially constructed and we choose to follow it ourselves.
And communists want to dominate your personal freedom! Wicked system. @@philippe2715
Russian govs goals is to ensure their people are the dominant of close to the dominant people that will hopefully survive the next 1000 years while the west goal is to turn boys into girls, girls into boys and flud western countries with 3rd world immigration that will outbreed the westerners in the next 50 years, some countries like Ireland are projected to have a native Irish minority by 2037...
These videos are so interesting and explanatory. Whoever's been doing the social media the Richard Nixon Foundation lately needs a pay increase. Well done and good output!
In this episode Nixon incriminates Himself.
The ability to serve Capitalism now faces the Russian resources that the USA now lacks.
The 1970's saw the export of a lot of US resource infrastructure,
now the US is not capable of supporting a Marshall Plan,
with either industrial production or financial support.
The Russians retained resources because their Government did not allow the exploitation of resources until the Profits wer no longer available from them.
Soviet Union methods of providing material to support Human needs,
appear to be less destructive to domestic supply.
The fact that Russia has resources needed for industrial production that the USA does not have,
seems to have inspired a stampede of buyers to Moscow in early 1990's.
The news that Outside Buyers were restricted to 30% of assets,
seemed to be something that motivated the desire to overcome Russia militarily.
That effort seems to have failed.
We now are facing a decision about the validity of capitalism itself.
@@danielhutchinson6604 agreed, but are we still calling todays America capitalist because it’s evolved into a corporate oligarchy that is at the hands of banking conglomerates. I am not saying that this was not a natural evolution of capitalism but what I am asking is can it still be called capitalism?
@@decidingfuctor5398You can call it a ponzy scheme,
or you can call it a Fonzi Scheme......
If it uses Capital of some sort,
to measure value,
it seems to be Capitalism......
@@decidingfuctor5398 I would argue that no economy with a central bank or federal reserve can truly be called capitalist.
@@danielhutchinson6604 A lot of words signifying nothing. The Soviet Union and now Russia are every bit as extractive of the natural and other resources available to them, just mass production and modern industrialization came later to them, and was extracted by a smaller workforce, under harsher conditions, for a smaller domestic population of "consumers". The Soviets and now Russians are also more destructive in methods of extraction, processing, and production into "goods", leaving more environmental damage and pollution - more than even the one time "arsenal of freedom", the United States of America .
The stark contrast between leaders and leadership from a few decades ago versus today is troubling.
I think this ties into the current wave of populism in the US. Someone as coherent as Nixon would be seen as part of "the elite" and would be unelectable today. But we've had waves of populism in the US in the past. I'm hoping the current wave eventually subsides as well.
Obama and Clinton were just as articulate, if not morso, than Nixon. The problem is that Americans didn't like smart leaders and decided to just start electing leaders that will give tell them what they want to hear.
Oh, not at all. Your leadership developing towards what it is now is a welcome sight. While the civilized world enjoys some worthy leaders and politicians in general.
@@afrooharObama and Clinton are barbarians.
The media changed first and took everyone and everything down with it.
If it hadn't been for Watergate, Nixon would have gone down in history as one of our great presidents.
He still will. Watergate was an agenda to take him down. Way overrated.
A very intelligent man indeed.
I regard him as one of our great presidents period regardless of what the media says about him. Watergate was just a big nothing burger. To me when it came to the 20th century, only 4 presidents actually mattered: Both Roosevelts, Nixon and Ronald Reagan. Notice how I didn't put that vastly overrated JFK on this list
Shit. Watergate is so overblown. Compared to what has gone on the last several years, Nixon should be vindicated.
Taken out by the same intelligence agencies that are still up to their same old tricks.
I don't think I ever saw so him so relaxed in manner and speech.
He left office in historic disgrace and is still the only president to resign and be forced out of office early in his term
He's talking about something he loves. Nixon always loved foreign policy
He was nervous when debating Kennedy
@@Beanmachine91people loved the Kennedys, but why? Bc they looked good?
Unlike our current political class who’s failed time and again in foreign affairs. Nixon actually understood and read the room properly. We need more leaders like Nixon
F*(king up relations with India just because he couldn't handle the indomitable and more remarkable Indira Gandhi, bombing Cambodia [opening the door to Pol Pot], flubbing peace talks for expediency only to do the same thing after all that sh*& about "peace with honor", these things don't agree.
He also wasn't weak like our current administration, which emboldens the worst of the worst like Russia, North Korea, Iran, and Hamas
@@docsavage8640
Watch more Hannity.
Especially when he’s gabbing with Koppel.
@@docsavage8640 Never put my country with those 3 again.
I guess that Nixon, had he been in the WH now, would have gauged Putin correctly and seen that he is not a Brezhnev or a Krushchev or even a Gorbachev, but more like Yuri Andropov, who by the way was Putin´s boss at the KGB at one time.
When it came to foreign policy and world affairs, nobody could hold a candle to Nixon. He was the perfect "foreign policy" president in every meaning of the word
This is the guy that bombed Cambodia, and moved more resources into Vietnam to just leave later.
He's gotta be one of the worst
Hundreds of thousands of Cambodians would disagree with you
One of the greatest presidents we ever had. I thank you Mr president for saving my life in 1972 when I “won” the draft lottery with my birthdate being picked as the next set of boys to be drafted and sent to Vietnam, and then you ended the draft in 1973 and more importantly ended the Vietnam conflict (technically not a war because it was never declared a war by congress) also in 1973…SAVING MY LIFE.
@@jmadratzI still remember my lottery number from 1972. It was 73😮 but I was on my way to college so I missed it. Nixon was the smartest foreign policy expert this country had has. As for bombing Cambodia, the North Vietcong were going through the edge of Cambodia to get the southern part of South Vietnam.
Kennedy was.
His understanding of world politics and diplomacy remains unparalleled. Truly remarkable
KNowledgeable yes. Yet virtually all of his actions ultimately were only intended to make himself look good regardless of the result. He didn't give a damn about anything except his own self image. A truly sad excuse of a human and a leader.
He helped the communist dictatorship China to become a member of the UN including a permanent seat in its security counsel, just to make it stop supporting Vietnam. In the UNSC, the communist dictatorship, that it still is, except that it's rich now, blocks all sanction against murderous regimes that China does good business with. He also had any medical research on chemical drugs banned, declaring them all evil, unnecessarily filling prisons.
How could a leader be human without being concerned with his own self image?@@jjhpor
It's nice to hear that he felt Americans and Russians could be friends despite how intensely bitter the Cold War got.
Important message that many people now who think they're being tough need to hear.
I’ve been waiting for the Ruskies to show up since the ‘80s because the mainstream politico keep telling me they’re attacking us and working to overthrow the country, but all I’ve seen in reality this past 16 years is a born Kenyan British subject partially raised in Indonesia and Kenya, and a born Indian and Jamaican largely raised in Canada, in the White House.
Все люди братья!)
No one had a problem with Russian people until their leaders put guns in their hands and sent them to invade their European neighbour
Sadly Putin put out the hand of friendship and the U.S SLAPPED HIM AROUND THE EAR,S WITH IT .
Well he had Kissinger not to forget. Henry would come back after a visit to Brezhnev and with a huge grin would tell wverybody "stay alert, he kisses on the mouth".
I love listening to these clips of Nixon. He has such gravitas and speaks with intelligence and like a real statesman. Such a contrast with the lightweight ''leaders' who control our lives today.
Yes, it's soul destroying to see the decline of the west, no where is it clearer than in the decline of our political class.
I could not have said that better! Just imagine our current VP, "Giggles" as prez when O'Biden has a stroke and leaves office.
Was Nixon too good? I am 63, and listening to President Nixon now is so refreshing. Nixon knew the value of knowledge and continued to chase it.
These videos should be shown in schools. His easily understood conversations of those historical times are lessons our current administration's could learn from.
As Mr. Spock said in Star Trek VI, " Only Nixon could go to China.."
He was good. If he hadn't been set up by the CIA he likely would have made even greater strides forward, maybe even Russia's communism would have been tossed out fot he window much much earlier. Maybe though others believd that a state of continual tension between Russia and NATO was required for economic reasons.
He promoted the drug war and the reason why until now, Latin America has a problem with drug lords (well Nixon began and Reagan fueled the problem) . Maybe you People from USA understand/care a sh** about the rest of the world. For us, it doesn't matter which president you picked up, it is always the same damm thing.
I've always thought that it was a shame that Jack Kennedy's dad bought the 1960 election for his son - one can't help wondering just how different the Sixties would have been with Nixon in the White House.
@@davesherry5384 Someone made a very interesting comment recently which agrees 100% with your speculation. If the US didn't pursue such aggressive policies towards the USSR and tried to interfere with their internal politics, communism would have collapsed much earlier.
What price knowledge, without the ethics to apply it?
These video records are truly priceless from a historical perspective, they really are.
And yet today, from modern politicians, they don't do them anything like Richard did.
Terrible shame, really.
modern politicians do plenty like Richard did. Both parties still pursue his "war on drugs" and support our ongoing war in Iraq in generally the same way supported prolonged the war in Vietnam - for political gains. The current Republican party is every bit as good as Richard Nixon at ; launching an "October surprise", or asking others to get information on a political opponent, or having / paying criminals do the "dirty work" for them, or changing education funding and standards to drive parents into the arms of private schools, fear mongering, or interfering in elections, or cutting taxes for the rich but not the rest of us, or making deals with China (actually that switched parties, oops). So yeah, politics has gotten "worse", but Nixon set the mold, and his political party continues to follow in dividing and weakening our nation with their criminal activities.
That oval office, Lyndon B Johnson Line was gold.
Fascinating insight on Russian / American governments & diplomacy...
I am waiting for my book from the library on “Leadership “by President Nixon.
Nixon would have described putin as a reactionary national narcist.
@@jojojojo4332 ofc everyone who oppose US world dictatorship is a "bad guy"(tm)
This man simply knew how to speak eloquently and understood foreign policy like no other president before or after him.
He dumbed down Russia to a dichotomy, but dichotomy is a tool of error.
This guy was just brilliant when it came to foreign policy, way ahead of almost anyone else.
He was wise about the Soviet threat and how to deal with it, but ultimately China may turn out to have been underestimated and Russia overestimated by Nixon. And absolutely everyone else.
I wish we had Nixon Now...I still have the campaign button!
All I’ll say is that dispute faults and leaders come especially in todays society, this man is the greatest treasure in leadership. Leadership in whole that the man is flexible and willing to listen without the need to insult to get his point across. This being said by a South African, I’m very impressed and very inspired by president Nixon . What a man, strong and solid even through everything!
You clearly weren't there to see him in real time.
You Africans are so silly that most of you don’t even know what you’re talking about half of the time. President Nixon was not a good leader. Have you heard of his scandal “Watergate”?! He is partially to blame for the Vietnam War and to blame for the drug crisis in America during the 70s.
My wife, as a little girl, had campaigned for him; she and her siblings stood in front of the voting place, holding themselves together at the shoulders, and doing chorus line kicks, singing, "Nixon now, now...Nixon Nixon now" over and over as they did.
Boy, I would pay money to have seen it.
Seeing Nixon in this day and age he was ahead of his time.
These videos, esp. the shorts, have given me such a wonderful & improved understanding of an intelligent complex American.
More please.
I think Bob Dole was right when he said at President Nixon's funeral the second half of the 20th century would be known as the 'Age of Nixon'. How I miss both of them.
Wisdom sorely needed for such a time as this
It’s too bad Nixon wasn’t president when the Soviet Union fell.
Soviet union fell in 1991 and Nixon died in 1994
@@World_Politics12learn to read
Carmine - that's a good point. In many ways, Nixon deserved to see that his China diplomacy, extraction from Vietnam, and constructive dialog with the USSR all ultimately lead to a better world.
He wisely foresaw, like Republicans always do, how socialism and communism never work, are completely counter to human nature, and that people simply overthrow their totalitarian true colors EVERY time.
Put another way, cultural exchanges, diplomacy, and communication gave momentum to the inevitable failure of the USSR.
Intelligent people simply will not tolerate the ugly corruption, persecution and civil abuse that ALL socialist/communist 'governments' impose through their fear and cowardice.
He helped set up several events that helped lead up to it. Reagan was primarily the "beneficiary" of it.
@@GameyRaccoon learn to mind your own business
The depth and resonance of Nixon's speaking voice ensured that listeners who experienced the 1960 debates on *radio* almost invariably judged Nixon the winner. Only television viewers supposed that JFK had outperformed his opponent.
Nixon did not look like an actor playing a great man. Kennedy did.
I love the way he talks
Richard Nixon was a very intelligent man, perceptive. This is a great insight. Thank you for posting this video
This man really knew foreign policy. He was the best President when it came to this. Too bad we don't have Nixon around any more.
These clips put Richard Nixon in a totally different light for me. I grew up in that generation that did not really listen to what he had to say. Thanks.
Nixon knows the difference between dealing with people on a personal basis vs. Dealing with people for business purposes.
No offense intended, but it would be very welcome to know the circumstances of this interview - when it was recorded, where it took place; that sort of thing.
Best wishes from Vermont 🍁
We'll update the description and make a comment about it in due time!
@@NixonFoundation Thank you for your fast-as-lightning response!
The Foundation is doing incredible things every day. Your efforts are truly appreciated. 🇺🇲
Wow...president Nixon explaining in detail how the Russian leaders are and can be. His way of telling of his experiences is elloquent, rational as well as entertaining. Such in depth knowledge of diplomacy at the highest level is is something to admire! We wish we could find a president today with his qualifications, talent and rational thoughts!!
He was, without a doubt, one of the greatest minds when it comes to geopolitics and international relations.
The geopolitics of his time yes. All anyone can be is of their time.
2nd...and a reborn Nixon admirer!
These clips randomly happen in my feed. Im not complaining at all. I always had a respect for Nixon- against the conventional wisdom. After watching these I have a newfound respect for him. Also as a college student perhaps learn from him. If only we could bring him back lol I also want to read his memoirs.
Ditto!
I’ve watched several videos from this channel. I must say, I am captivated with the stories President Nixon has recalled! It was an amazing time in our nation’s history! I’m a registered Democrat, and I find President Nixon incredibly fascinating! ☮️🖖🏽
As we start listening more and more clips from Nixon, we start to realize how intelligent avd wise leader he is. I wonder if the last 4-5 US presidents can come close.
Back when a prerequisite to being a politician was being intelligent and thoughtful - it produced individuals like Nixon, JFK, Eisenhower… looking at our current political leaders, where the hell did it go wrong ?
Ask the boomers
My 97 year old grandma who is a lifelong Democrat/Dixiecrat believes that Nixon is one of the best presidents ever.
I keep with Patton said in the end of WW2 "we defeated the wrong enemy".
Richard Nixon was a highly, *HIGHLY* intelligent man. He chooses his words carefully but with such swiftness and ease, and he articulates so well.
And he also has a warmth in how he relates and displays good observational skills and a capacity to notice what is interesting. Why does america seem to seek to destroy their better more inspirational figures ? JFK, LIncoln, Nixon and dare I say it, Trump?
Back when our leaders were wise.
And corruption ruled their thoughts..
@@vrxxx1262 If you think that’s changed, you’re on drugs. At least they were competent.
Did he do some shady and sneaky stuff? Absolutely, but I think Nixon is a highly underrated president. As many have said, foreign policy was unmatched, but he had plenty of domestic accomplishments as well.
I could not help noticing his correct pronunciation of Dr. Jekyll, with a long E.
I heard that and was wondering about it.
In Austria we says Dr. Jekyle
I think the key here is to ultimately see everyone as human, the moment we dehumanize our adversaries, is the moment when humans do their most terrible acts.
we are called "orcs" now. In vain you made friends with austrian painter's subordinates you harbored and protected from our righteus vengeance. Now you are repeating painter's way
Impressively correct pronunciation of Jekyll.
There was a slight humor in there with that story about that Russian leader and the Lincoln!! Man president Nixon knew his stufff
That would be one stinkin' Lincoln fivescore and seven years after being president!!😂🤢😂
"We allies and friends, but not our governments"
Да, вполне, мы можем быть хорошими друзьями
Russia is not the Soviet Union. Nixon lived at a different time.
Yeah it says it was filmed in 83 but it was still the Soviet Union at the time
Russia still operates like the days of the Soviet Union
Russia is run by former Soviets and KGB's. A Wolf in a sheep costume is not a sheep.
@@axelfoley1812 Modern day Russia is absolutely different, it's a capitalist state now.
@@kamchatmonk they still oppress their citizens like the Soviet Union
"One of the prices of diplomacy." great line
Unfortunately diplomacy is dead in the current regime in Washington.
I believe he said prizes, not prices, to be precise
@@nikolaisedov2295 it was price, as in a "price to pay" in order to do good diplomacy. (He had to pay by risking his life to please Brezhnev)
@@funbarsolaris2822 i assumed it was a prize, as in a reward. Perhaps having fun was a reward. But maybe you’re right idk. Sounds closer to “z” than “c” to me
Ok i gave it one more listen and it’s closer to “c” xD
@@funbarsolaris2822Surely, Brezsnev is comfortable with 100 kmh or 60 mph speed!!
This is what a smart man looks like.
One of the prices of diplomacy. Well said President Nixon.
interesting & informative
Passion flows in all directions.
this man was so damn smart
These were the words of a realist politician. A politician who, despite his hostility to communism, understood the realities of this world and extended his hand to the Soviets to make the world safer. Best regards from Russia.
Respect
Nixon would’ve been an excellent president to have from 1992-2000, he could maneuver to evade some of our present issues, especially with the rise of Russian Revisionism in 2004
Love from Russia❤🇷🇺
I’m a democrat but Nixon’s passion for foreign policy is breathtaking. He was a a lot more strategically flexible than given credit for. He was an anti communist but still willing to work with some communists like China to turn them against the USSR or even with Soviet communists to thaw the Cold War. He never let ideology get in the way of strategy and political tactics, which seems to be something severely missing in modern times where the word comprise both domestically and internationally is missing in US politics.
I was born and raised in commonwealth nations but never ever hear anything good about Soviet Union . Because of that inspired me to travel all Eastern Europe .
My trip was fantastic only minor issues I did face local language .
What program was this interview filmed for? Interesting seeing him talking almost to camera.
Not sure for what program, but the full interview was conducted by Harrison Salisbury in 1983. Thanks for watching!
I agree
"One of the prices of diplomacy" LOL! Beautiful!
Very informative videos, for interviews that would’ve otherwise been lost in history.
Don't forget that Brezhnev was also a war hero and he have seen some though battles during WW2.
He is also Ukrainian. But back then it didn’t matter.
He just seats there and relaxedly talks about what he thinks on the subject. Compare it to current guy who does not remember where he is and who he is. Even Brezhnev seems healthy and sane in comparison
Fascinating!!!!
I really like this channel. Thank you.
The more I listen to Tricky Dicky the more I realise he's one of the best speakers to ever emerge from the oval office. Imagine the orange man trying to say something like this. Or the other one, you know, the dead guy.
Or the most articulate, best educated, and least capable and most divisive of them all...the man from Hawaii.
The POTUS who didn't lead, and never found a way to change the mind of any man who didn't agree with him at the beginning.
However, yes, he could easily speak in paragraphs.
I came across a poll back in 1990 that was done, asking Americans if they would vote for him for president, and 93% of the population said they would vote for Nixon if he could run again. A statement of how great of a leader he truly was regardless of the Watergate scandal. I wish so much we could find another great president like him to lead this country.
Fun interview!!!
Wow, these are such interesting tidbits of history. RN Foundation, you rock!
Dr Jeekyl & Mr Hyde... I have never heard it pronounced that way
I had to look that up as it was so odd, but there must be a reason Nixon pronounced it like that. It took some digging but found the following on the internet: "The original pronunciation for Dr. Jekyll is Jee-kall. The author, Robert Louis Stevenson, insisted on this and only the first sound movie of the adaptation starring Fredric March got it right in 1931. Every following movie pronounced it Je-kel and now that is how we say it today."
@@philduoos2961 interesting.. I thought it was very odd
They arent zionist puppets
Love the story about Brezhnev's driving.
some amazing anecdotes
As a Russian, I tend to agree. I'm pretty open to American cultural ideas, I love American poetry, music, food etc. But, the USA as a state simply wants what's worse for Russia and we politically need to defend our interests.
"Johnson - Breznev bear wrestling" - very interesting observation.
Probably, split personalities are being engendered by the split realities of smiles, deceits and intrigues.
"Hey, here a glass of wine for you... Uhmm, You are fired. Vocate your cubicle right now!"
Is it more a USSR type of situation or the USA one?
Bipolar world of criss crossed lies and interwoven intrigues. Was it the American, or Soviet modus operandi?
Thanks for the new music videos , I'm sure the kids are going to appreciate them
Wise words.
Brezhnev was a very warm and generous person in interpersonal relations (I've read several memoirs mentioning this, including those by his main bodyguard - Vladimir Medvedev). If you someone's interested, they can check out his very charismatic interviews with French media (in their state archive, he understood French, having studied it in school), or clips here on UA-cam of his meetings with President Nixon, Chuck Connors, or the Apollo astronauts who docked with a Soviet cosmonaut mission in space in 1975. He also was a veteran of World War II, which says a lot about his ability to retain his humanity despite the horrors he saw.
President Nixon also said something very important here: that Brezhnev was a "ruthless, tough communist" - that is, for his time, defending the best interests of his country and its system. That's something that could not be said about his successors, which impoverished and humiliated their own people to please foreigners; everyone living in the post-Soviet space is paying for that to this day. I'm sure if Nixon had been born in the USSR and become leader he would have defended it just as forcefully, patriotically and brilliantly as Brezhnev did, and the same thing if Brezhnev had been born in America.
First
Very interesting, thank you for this peace of history!
The intelligence, wit, humor, knowledge of foreign policy and foreign leader undeniable...just a shame that all his shortcomings were finally revealed during Watergate, his impeachment and eventual resignation from the presidency.
Actually, Nixon was quite astute in Foreign Affairs. I would say that Trump is following his course.
41, 42, 43, 44 & 46 don’t hold a candle in Foreign Detente….
Simply lol
I don’t know about that. I think 41 was very good with foreign policy, especially when Communism finally collapsed. 42 and 43 were okay but not great. 44 didn’t seem to understand U.S. interests at all. 45 was sensible and competent, even when he appeared reckless to some. And 46 has just been hopeless, as bad if not worse than 39.
@@irkhanbasc45 is total garbage.
Russia think they are at top and think they can still walk around happy jolly and play nice in your face.
a gem
Nixon was a jewel and one of the best American presidents. We need him back.
Russia is awesome
valuable. we need all this imput help us understand our world
If you want to learn about diplomacy, read Nixon's books.
campaigned for him in 1960 - miss him
In other words the Americans never understood the slavic mentality not speaking about the Russian one.
I now remember why I liked him so much growing up.
The way he can differentiate between politics and the actual person behind it is something you rarely see today... I feel like the whole world is more divided than ever and there's no space for healthy and respectful debates anymore, because no one can see the human behind the arguments anymore
Nixon is a great story-teller!
Khrushchev is one of the best rulers of the Soviet Union. Under him, a huge contribution was made to the development of the country and the world. None of the subsequent leaders were able to reach his level.
