Huge credit to the reporter for not backing down when asking her questions to both sides, that’s extremely impressive
@@aron8659 It's not "getting an attitude", it's catching him out on a lie, and it's what a journalist is supposed to do in an interview.
@@blake432
Unfortunately modern media does doo it
For real, I had the exact same thoughts in my head.
Like who is gonna stop that guy from killer her and the cameraman if he got mad enough to do so.
Mad respect as always to Vice for the real world news unbiased.
@@whoknows2356 Except Vice is 'modern media'. Plenty of journalists risk their lives every to bring you news for free. 274 were jailed around the world in 2020 due to their work - a record number. Stop generalising.
@@-Just_Justin- She most likely spent a lot more time with him than was shown here. As a seasoned journalist she is probably good at reading people and knows when she can play hardball without putting herself in danger. It definitely is impressive though.
These kinds of wars only seem to have losers, except for Toyota. Toyota is making bank.
Mercenaries are getting payed well too, but yes Toyota never looses
toyota is the most neutral company ive ever seen tbh they are supporting allies and rebels since vietnam war
Makers and guns and ammo and uniforms etc too.
@Jewish Banker They probably didn't have a choice - Japan and Germany had things like our "War Production Act" that Trump used to keep pork processing plants open to sell pork to China and Biden is using to produce vaccines. In WWII in the US, we had the Singer sewing machine company making .45 pistols and International Harvester making rifles etc.
I doubt those Toyota's are brand new, the company is probably not making any money from rebels
She is crying because of plastic chairs. We are really living a comfortable life compared to so many out there yet we complain about the most miniscule of things
She could’ve been crying about more things than just the chairs.
I don't
The chairs and her bed could have just been the last straw. It takes a lot to fully break down. Not just one thing in period. She lost her home dude
People are complaining about putting a mask on...
А потом показывают вождя повстанцев, который сидит на тех самых стульях и говорит что другие грабят ближайшую деревню, да кольцо у него на пальцах не дешевое.
"A country invaded by the Russians never recover"
America: "Hold my democracy"
... still waiting
@@Nefylym..👈Did you know that US had invaded every country on planet earth including China and Russia too. Do you know that US has over thousand bases all-over the world and most of them are on foreign occupied countries and islands. I dont think you know that..Now you know it. Its good to know history before you comment on UA-cam.♥️🕊️🌍👌👍
There’s a statue dedicated to the Russians in Wagner group in CAR. The “journalist” forgot to mention that.
The Russians have done alot for african and they treat them as equal not like the west who just take their resources and dont give anything back
The journalist in this was pretty brave. She openly contradicted the Rebel commander in front of his troops and he was pretty incensed by the situation, but she didn't wilt under the pressure.
They have to stay in line, internationally the us is still powerful around the world, not even a clown as president like trump was not able to takle all that power and respect. But yeah definitely agree with you
@@jotak2206 yeah those guys lay a hand on her that whole town of rebels will be ashes
@@lospro1363 that is A 'HWHITE 'HWHOMAN!!!
That's not necessarily true. The journalists are taking a risk when travelling to countries at war.
I trust vice news.
The stolen chairs didn't take long to track down
Exactly my thoughts when I saw the chairs.
HAHAHAHHAAHA I DIEDD😂😂😂😂😂😂
Awesome comment!
wait when ?
@@mochalo4912 8:06
goddam this lady is staring down the rebel general and pressing tough questions on him. the absolute balls on her lmao
Central African Republic is one of the areas that major companies mine for Cobalt, Nickel, and Lithium for electric car batteries. I'm surprised this wasn't mentioned in the video? There are big global companies getting involved in Central African Republic (destroying forests, polluting drinking water, using under age workers, etc). This is one of the main reasons different sides (countries) are getting involved in this area.
Hopefully, they won’t find any oil there then things will really get worse for them.
So who is behind rebels, usa to blame again?
@@pelvis_assley The French control that region, and have for a long time. That's why so many African countries speak French. The USA has done much over the decades to try and help Africa as a whole.
@@pelvis_assley the French!
@@pelvis_assley no alians
When we would complain about going back to the “Old Vice” this is exactly what we meant. Very well done!
ua-cam.com/video/k1chgHtUO_w/v-deo.html
Not everything can be drugs and guns and war, or at least that’s what they’ve decided.
@@nickc3657 I don’t mean that. I mean instead of following a set narrative, vice challenged and listened to both sides, and allowed the viewer to come to their own conclusion. That’s what I would like to see in all media and over all subjects. But you’re absolutely right not everything is War or Drugs.
🤮
They do this more often than you’d think. People complain about wanting the “old vice” back when they make stuff like this all the time.
It is heartbreaking to see that woman, the little property she had got taken away.
Yes this is the result of a government disarming its people so they cant defend themselves
@@soullessone4681 more like constant interference from foreign powers so they can grab resources
@@barsaydn4233 Yes foreign companies love their international employees being killed by rebels and the local political system in such shambles all of your shipments to port get robbed by the same rebels.
@@soullessone4681 You 100% sure it has something to do with your American fascination with guns?
@@soullessone4681 the result of other countries stealing resources funding war and corruption and impoverishing a country
US since the 80's: Hahaha, they're not our troops. They're private military companies hired the by local government! *wink wink* ''
Russia: ''Haha, yeah. Not our troops. PMC hired by local government, da!''
US: ''Wait, no! That's illegal! ''
It's really funny, wherever anything, people like you show up and hey, they say America is so funny, you can't see other countries, just America.
@@rahimrahimi15 Are you having stroke? Wtf is that wordsoup?
I've done several tours in Central Africa its mental you don't know who's who one day they are rebels next day they switch sides.
When he says tours he means merc missions.
Rebel forces are almost always composed of deserters. And if you ever hope to win a war, you need to be able to ally with and incorporate rebel forces.
Not weird at all.
What are the rebels "rebeling" against?
Ты русский?
This lady.... man she’s got steel. Good stuff vice.
yeah, the road argument really stumped them.....
. man she’s got balls. Good stuff vice.
Correction: Balls of steel...
She doesn’t have steal. She has two army vehicle crew following her that would obliterate all of them including vice. She can say whatever, vice brought the money to pay there way to them. You think they just like
“OH LOOK THEY HAVE CAMERAS YEAH INVITE THEM OVER AND THEY CAN JUST SAY WHATEVER TO US CAUSE THEY HAVE RIGHTS HERE”
L-O-L
Y’all sheep 🐑
^That's what we call an "oof" comment
Ah yes the white Toyota pickups helping rebels, insurgents, and terrorists wage war since 1987
toyota is the most neuttral car company ever since supporting both allies and rebels since the vietnam war 🤣
Military grade reliance
really shows you can trust those things to not break down.
Right? And Toyota never catches any heat about how their trucks always end up in these conflict zones. It's like Toyota has a separate assembly line for these truck.....
Buetifull iits probably been in Afghanistan, Iran through syria and yemen and now the trusty old Toyota ends up in rebel hands in Central Africa, on a never ending journey of destruction and anarchy.
you can feel the tension when she was questioning the Commander.. intense

VICE is touching new heights in terms of war reporting. But the lady who lost a few chairs and table saying she's lost everything broke my heart. Resources are a bane !
A few chairs and whatnot are all she has! Had little but that still didn't stop them from looting and stealing it
Na. You wanna see new heights, watch their cannibal war lords on Liberia. Man.
except for Vice's reporting in the Ukraine - very one sided
@@BadioTheAfricano I did. Shocked me.
@@priyanks91 crazy right? Makes me wonder what else is nuts about our world.
She seems to be more harsh when asking the rebels questions but more subtle with the government. She never mentioned to the minister how and why people are terrified of the Russians
This was condensed into a few minutes. Who's to say she didn't mention those things?
The minister is a high ranking official. The journalist has to have some level of politeness
@@NyanyiC but the minister didnt have armed men surrounding her in the woods.
She's playing a narrative glad u caught on
@@TheBoss-ey1li what narrative exactly?
I always love then the reporter can actually speak the language of the natives in the country they are covering. I think it shows qualification, professionalism and respect.
This is French !
its a very old language spoken by a few, savage tribesmen. its called "french".
@@snakeplissken2148 yes I am well aware of what the language is. But what does that have to do with what I said? They speak french, so the native language is French, correct?
@@josephburnside2135 well yes, but even i speak french, although i am just a fin living in germany.
@@josephburnside2135The popular native language is Sango. Similar to Lingala.
This is EXACTLY the sort of content I come to Vice to see!! Excellent journalism
Toyota might as well have an armored option or a machine gun mount comes with it
They do. Well armored versions anyway.
pre threaded holes for the mounts
You guys should have bought that lady a new plastic table and some chairs for letting you interview her
Maybe they did it off camera, because it would be kind of weird to do handouts on camera by a journalist.
^
four plastic chairs...a table....and a bed. damn they got everything!
it feels like she s crying intentionally to make them feel sorry ... but tbh its situation is an horrible one so yeah .. hope things will improve for them
@@mochalo4912 i felt so too but what choice does someone in her position have when left with nothing?
Number of rebel groups active across west Africa before fall of Libya: zero
Number of rebel groups active across west Africa after fall of Libya: more than 5 and each has several factions.
You know, at this stage mercenaries would be far more preferable than peacekeepers at getting the job done. Just look at Executive Outcomes and the results of their work prior to UN intervention.
The UN doesn’t intervene in anything anymore, they’re a bunch of wussy’s, there was a time when the UN did do it Job in intervening but now they don’t ni matter what, tbh they’re barely keeping the peace.
look up "portuguese paratroopers minusca fight"
i remember reading about the UN leaving a platoon of peacekeepers in Sierra leon. only until a unit of british pathfinders who went in to do a mission, were the Peacekeepers found. It was a Platoon of Nigerian soldiers who were part of the UNAMSIL. Mad stuff. Only the officer was left, the rest intergrated with the locals. The officer still kept his weapon, uniform, beret in top condition.
I've sad it before and I say it again, that reporter has some balls.
Warlords are usually the most charismatic person in the room. Naturally, doing an interview is sought-after. Foreign news? Even better. The reporter is guaranteed safe passage (but not always true).
lol, they on one side) reporter speak with CPC and not speak whith russians. manipulation so manipulation)
Yes, a massive pair.
*said
bruh you really have to love your job if you're willing to report on these issues. This was insane
Passion
I would love to go into war torn countries it looks like alot of fun tbh
Seeing the world, talking with people while collecting decent paycheck. Way better than sitting in the office or doing manual labor all day/everyday if you ask me.
@@Spookykidshow nothing fun abt it tf.....
@@Spookykidshow bet. Go to Mexico and try 🤣
I thought he argued passionately, but he wasn't threatening and he stayed polite, calling her Madame and using "vous" (a sign of respect), and he speaks French fluently with a rich vocabulary. All in all, he seemed like a well educated rebel. He probably isn't lower class.
He’s educated and funded by the French.
Cpc General " You cant make a omelet with out breaking a few eggs" quote of the day
One interesting detail to the story for the sake of context - three Russian journalists were killed there 2 years ago. They were covering a story on a private Russian security company (as is mentioned in the video, 'Wagner') operating in the Central African Republic.
Do they know who killed them?
meow
@@Danneman92 Almost certainly the mercs or their local allies.
@@Danneman92 welp, US government says "Violent crime, such as armed robbery, aggravated battery, and homicide is common. Armed groups control large areas of the country and they regularly kidnap, injure, and/or kill civilians. In the event of unrest, airport, land border, and road closures may occur with little or no notice. " And those journalists went into an area where those unrests are uncommon. Without an armed guards. In nighttime. And their driver miraculously survived. VICE journalist wears a bodyarmor for a reason in this video.

How to christianise afrikans , -make a corrupt government
-send weapons
-create chaos

@@FrontWood you think this war is happening because people are trying to convert africans to christianity...? lmao
@@yuppieNL I mean it's much more than that , christianity is just another way for the government to secretly control people and supress them , christianity is not the same anymore , the romans corrupted it from the beginning using it to start off the crusade and colonization and residential schools and rapist and etc etc
@@yuppieNL it's a tool for capitalists
I used to watch "Discovery Clandestino" with a Spanish journalist named "David Beriain".
Sadly he got killed just a couple of weeks ago in Burkina Faso.
So things like this still happens, they putting their life at risk all the time.
I hope they translate those series to English...

Vice news have a pretty clear agenda when reporting on the situation in CAR.
Quote of the week, rebel spokesman "You can't make omelets without breaking a few eggs"
He is watching too many movies.
Originally said by a New York Times' editor under the payslip of Stalin.
He's right, every war in history no matter how justified has killed innocent people. The world is not fair.
it's a common french expression that goes back to Honoré de Balzac. That rebel commander is very well-spoken by the way.
He's convinced me.
Currently on a flight to join his forces in the Central African Republic.
Toyota trucks, Kalashnikov guns, Ikea plastic chair those things are getting product placement in every action story for free. However, James Bond product placements like Aston Martin, Walther gun, Bollinger wine costs heap of money.
Quality vs Crap - who wins?
Toyota works hard to make good stuff.
You can get a Walther PPK for $650...
Hahaha
The plastic products in all of africa is mostly chinese made, not from africa
@@375Cheytac he's talking about the product placement, not the product itself
Brave and courageous journalism. Great to see Vice on the way back. Huge kudos to the reporter. She's brilliant.
Rebels look nervous when are speaking about Russians. It is interesting.
My prayers goes to Africa innocents people don’t deserves this to be left with nothing I hope they get provided & live back to a normal life
This is what it looks like when the people are disarmed from the government and cant defend themselves
@@soullessone4681 The so-called "rebels" had quite a lot of guns. This is the result of the Cold War and decades of corruption of the local governments and exploitation from first world countries.

White coloniser mentality
@@rajeshkurichiopalli3051 Better than tribal mentality lmao
There are only 7-900 Russians. “Heavy Russian Presence “
Even 700 russian soldiers can make a big difference in these wars because of the inequality of training and weaponry
Ranguin she said THEY are blaming heavy Russian presence. Big difference.
That's a pretty heavy Russian presents for a guerilla war in central Africa
That's roughly the size of an average rebel faction.
If its not a problem, we'll bring 900 Afghan mujahideen resistance fighters in Russia, another 900 in the U.S
Incredible reporting. Almost cried watching her breakdown after her bed was stolen
You owe me a new computer monitor
Not sure that militant guy still around, Russian might got him already.
Finally they went back to the Central African Republic
Yah
Damn, that journalist definitely have balls bigger than most of us combined. The bravado to question the rebel’s general, in their territory. Heads down Respect to her!!
That just shows that there people are not radical rebels they are just trying to protect themselves from the government
if Russia is entering in anybody's country then they mercenaries
If US is entering in anybody's country then they are liberators
well I support Russia
They are literally mercenaries, it's an actual PMC employed by the local government.
@@ForOne814 I agree but what's wrong with hiring Mercenaries? Probably more bang per buck than a standard regular trooper and they also provide (as the CAR lady put it) useful Tactical Training and Advisement *to* CAR regular troops in fighting the French backed rebel forces. Seriously people - what's the big deal? 🤔
@@rustym.shackelford5546 nothing. I don't like this specific PMC, mainly because it's a wish dot com type of PMC, but there's nothing wrong with hiring mercenaries.
@@ForOne814 Exactly - I share the same sentiment. It's no different than hiring a Security Company like Allied Universal. I'm sure my Security Company will notice such a trend (or perhaps I could start my own PMC one day - who knows).
@@ForOne814 Also care to elaborate/expand a bit on the "Wish Dot Com PMC" thing you said on the PMC in this video? I am only curious. That is all.

People gets lots of money from gofundme in the developed world for practically whatever they want. It’d be a great idea to set one up for these villagers. Basic necessities that cost us nothing would mean the world to them. I’m not sure how they’d received the money though, it doesn’t seem like they have ready access to the internet or any way to physically use money from gofundme.

Thats some amazing journalism. Respect. (do you plan on publishing longer forms, such as full interview with the rebel leader? Wouldve been amazing to study such individual more detaily)
If the minister of defence cannot even change her low battery on smoke detector, then perhaps she cannot fight a war against a handful of rebels. 10:41

I am sure the Minister is not in charge of housekeeping.
The rebels blockaded the road to the capital, and I'm guessing the CAR doesn't have a large chemical manufacturing industry.
This a brave reporter
5:45 heartbreaking to see a woman cry over her stolen plastic chairs, while I sit in my house surrounded by stuff. We don’t realise how good we have it 😥
At 1 hand.... It's true.... I felt saddened too.
On the other hand.....
She should felt grateful... That she still alive among those chaos...
Losing plastic chair... Would mean nothing... Compared to her live.
@@exgangster843 it’s the people sitting in a comfy house watching UA-cam who should be grateful
The problem with enlisting outside help is that they probably care even less about the inhabitants than those already fighting.
Great reporting once again
I dont get the poverty and migration tbh. Is it the government and army killing folk is it politics let me know.
This is extraordinary journalism. No western journalist has probably covered CAR in years since the Russians came. Great job guys

So I hear Ukraine is getting pretty hot right now too...
The only solution is to destroy evil federation.
We need Simon!
Yeah, Ukraine is not a good place to be a civilian in at the moment - especially a Jewish one. The 21st century has had some interesting rhyming with the last one already. We're (hopefully) getting past the pandemic so next comes the boom of the Roarin' 20's followed by the bust of the 30's and the rise of new National Socialist groups. Then again, by the 2040's we might be dealing with a global extinction level event instead of the localized kind from a hundred years earlier. Progress!
Let's hope the west comes through for our Ukrainian friends
well tbh ukraine looks like a paradise compared to afghanistan , iraq or libya
Mercenaries go where the money is. I'm willing to bet there are plenty of "Blackwater" types there too.
White South Africans are also into that kind of thing.
@@novemberlies3701 and probably middle eastern mercenaries left over from the blender of chaos that that region has been for the last half century+ too, I would imagine.
That's the most polite warlord i have ever heard of "Tell me madam, what am i to do if the president doesnt wanna negotiate?'
I wish they would have left in all the times she calls her 'madam'
Africa is a magnificent continent that is torn up by war everywhere
I can’t quite understand whether the reporter was brave or foolish for contradicting and disrespecting the rebel leader, especially in the presence of his subordinates which would probably make him lash out to assert himself. When he raised his voice, I had to remember I’m watching this interview rather than reading about a Vice reporter being KIA in the CAR. 🤣
Nah I don't think that guy was of danger, he didn't seem stupid and from what the civilians in the church said it wasn't like they were being targeted for murder by the rebels like alot of other conflicts.
I am sure the rebels also wanted to get their message out , so no need to harm the lady
These rebels aren't extremist like ISIS, they're willing to sit down and have a civil discussion.
So what, there’s American mercenaries all over the world lol
Dont forget british and french

We are going through tough times in the West with this pandemic but these people are facing something altogether different
the things we go through in the west is nothing compared to be these people...
The use of foreign mercenaries in African conflicts sadly seems to be tradition by now.
Just think of the Congo, or how Executive Outcomes - a former South African PMC - in Angola and Sierra Leone.
That's because being a mercenary in Africa is a lucrative business.
Supply and demand. It's simple.
And Liberia.

You film one guys opinion stating he won't go back into the city if only the Russians are there and their local army isn't however the CPC Rebel groups didn't want to meet you because of "heavy Russian presence" deducing that the Russians are doing a pretty damn good job if the rebels are scared of 600-900 Russians. Stop being Russophobe's and spreading hate propaganda @VICE, Russians are not your enemy. Question your governments actions before judging other countries.
I loved how the defense minister of CAR shut this journalist down with the UN statement.
"A country invaded by the Russians never survives" sounds like a compliment tbh, but man you sure you aren't speaking of USA, which has been using mercenaries world wide (yes mercenaries not contractors contrary to what your media likes to label them as)? For a "general" this guy complains a lot, if anything this goes to show that the Russians know what they are doing there if they are instilling such fear in them.
Honestly this whole release seems like a rant that "omg Russians are using mercenaries, even though we (USA) have been doing it for decades, but that is irrelevant. Look at these bad bad Russians, they are so bad that they are actually getting the job done". Weak.
Anyone got any idea why she speaks French to the guy in the UNICEF shirt but speaks English to the rebel general. He seems to be speaking French (I'm not fluent, but I can pick out a fair few words) so I don't get it unless she was speaking English just for the camera but had also asked the question in French and that was edited out.
Her French is clearly not perfect so she probably decided it was safer to rely on an interpreter
"Bed and chairs stolen by armed rebels? At Farmers we've seen almost eveything, so we know how to cover almost anything."
Seeing this reminded me how lucky I am indeed of what I have 😥
She literally crying because the rebels have stolen some plastic made chairs and table , that kinda hurt me

Good vid. But this comment section is strange as hell.
Russia never did anything exceptional when it comes to geopolitics. As some say "everybody does that".
This vid didn't make a single claim Russians are doing anything heinous in CAR. Their presence is approved under the UN. What's all those comment siding with rebel leader about "Russia destroys countries" are about?
"War is old men talking, and young men dying." citizens pay the most for wars decided by men living lavishly #peaceforall
Russia destroyed civilian lives for power. Disgusting. All for gold diamonds and timber.
Greed IS war.
As a southeast Asian, I really still find it cool to hear Africans speak fluent French. It's so nice to hear.
Yes. Africans have been speaking French as long as the Vietnamese and Cambodians. But better. It was all one French Colonial Empire at one time. But in Africa, French continues on as the language of the educated classes, commerce and diplomacy.
