I think the US should absolutely do more. Speaking as an American who has watched his country attempt to forcefully export democracy his entire life. Except now someone wants that freedom and democracy and America is barely trying.
Failure of the Arab spring 'regime change' movement put a dampner on that appetite. Countries need to first champion civil values - such as broad-hearted tolerance (of race, sexuality, religion, etc.) before they can benefit from democracy. Ukraine is a highly conservative society - living in a way that is not so different from the self-suffocating conservatism one finds in Russia - and look how interested in true democracy they are 🤷.
The US is pulling back from dominating world affairs. Agree with it or not that's the way it is. It was understandable when half of Europe was under communist control that western Europe needed as much help as possible, but that's no longer the case. Europe is almost entirely free of Russian control. It must find a way to help itself without constantly relying on the US.
The US will make sure Ukraine doesn't lose, but Europeans are the only ones who can make sure they win.
@@ErimeUkraine may share a Soviet past with Russia, but its people seem much more interested in democracy, tolerance, and freedom than Russians are.
Ukraine is the only non-Israel country with a Jewish president, the defense minister is a Muslim, and I’m sure other key leaders are Orthodox Christian. Former Gen Zaluzhny attended a Ramadan iftar with Crimean Tatar troops.
The war and subsequent dislike for all things Russian has caused many Ukrainians to reconsider LGBTQ rights because of how anti-LGBTQ Russians are.
Zelenskyy is proceeding with anti-corruption reforms and arrests, even as Ukraine fights for its survival.
Everyday Ukrainians sent Yanukovych packing in 2014 after Euromaidan because he refused to honor the popular vote on the pro-EU referendum.
@@catc8927 Russia's long history of forcing their culture upon the Ukrainians, is legendary!!! Just 100 years ago, Stalin was starving them to death. He wiped out 10 million, between Ukraine and ethnic peoples of Russia and, the Republics!!! Enough of Russian aggression & corruption!!!
Describing US interference in world affairs as "attempting to export democracy" is delusional. Destabilising numerous other countries isn't democracy. Mind you, the US can only loosely be described as a democracy, it's more of an oligarchic plutocracy with democratic window dressing.
Lest we forget the David vs Goliath symbolism of the Russo-Ukrainian War; Ukrainian boxer Olexandr Usyk (6'3") defeated the lumbering giant Tyson Fury (6'9") in May of this year, to become the Undisputed Heavyweight Champion of the World! David wil win again!!
The Ukrainians are Courageous, Brave, and, Determined!!! 💙Slava Ukraini!!!💛
Happy to support Ukraine for more than ten years now. Been documenting life there since 20 14. I believe the bond between Ukraine and US starts with handshakes in the trenches

Anybody seen the photo of the 14 year old girl slumped on the park bench? Broke my heart, what angers me more is the WEST'S weakness in not allowing Ukraine to use the long range missiles.
There should be talks to end the war but what we see is an appetite to encourage wars for the purposes of selling arms sad really for the human condition
Exactly.

We are playing a game with Russia, but Putin isn't. This will be looked back, in history, and the free world will be asked what we did or didn't do to support Ukraine people and wonder why? 😮 Dictatorships have NO reason to exist in the year 2024. 😢 We of the USA have been isolated from war and have forgotten what it is like. We have forgotten what it's like to watch evil destroy everything that you loved and lived for. Sad😮
@johnsmith. The game of the U.S. has and continues to be boiling the frog, the frog being Putin and Russia.
We give just enough to Ukraine to hold off Putin's invasion but not enough for Ukraine to actually defeat Russia. Incrementally increasing Ukrainian capabilities as needed to keep the Russian army mostly in place and having to expend huge amounts of men and materials to make even tiny mostly insignificant gains.
Eventually the frog will be boiled but the cost to the people of Ukraine doing it this way is just brutal.
It's clear at this point that Putin is not capable of actually taking over Ukraine as long as the west continues to support Ukraine but the drip drip of western aid that seems to continue to be the way forward is horribly unfair to the people of Ukraine and the sacrifices that they are being forced to make to continue this war for so long is simply unconscionable.
Are you kidding? Where do you think you live? You just had a silent coup go on and the usurper wasn't voted into candidacy. You're living in a state where $$$ is the only rule, you don't have democracy
It’s just tearing my heart as I listen to day after day of this brutality. By the Kremlin. I listening everyday for some good news. But the good news isn’t enough. I have a friend in Ukraine and I don’t know what to say in my letters. What is the optimism?
The Ukrainians are winning, and WILL prevail! Much of what is transpiring is covert, so we do not know every detail!!
The US has spent less than 2 months of a single years military budget on military aid to Ukraine, over almost 3 years. Thats less than 3 weeks a year going to Ukraine.
Most of that is being spent paying US citizens to manufacture replacements for what we've sent.
In exchange we have gotten mountains of data on how these weapons perfrom in realmworld conditions, we have massively depleated russian will and resources, and weve been able to reassess our spending priorities for the next 20 years as we see exactly how vulnerable a 25 million dollar tank can be to a $400 drone.
Best money we have ever spent.
Not to mention...oh yeah, we are developing ties with a future ally that is proving way more tough, capable,innovated and brave than we ever gave them credit for...also, outing the incompetence of russian military has massive value. They cant even organize a schedule for turning their stored vehicles around every couple months to avoid sun rot.
All for 6 to 8 weeks of our normal military budget.
Absolutely could not have bought the opportunity if we had tried.
At this point, the only reason not to go all in and ship them everything they need is to intentionally drag the war out in order for further weaken Russia and make sure we can focus on China for the next 20 years while Russia tries to rebuild through a wall of sanctions that wont drop until they form an actual representative government.
Actually less then you think, most of the money is spent on the US, and Ukraine winds up getting the old obsolete.
@jasond. Good analysis, however I would add this...

I hope you're right but the US government is so dysfunctional it's impossible to predict.
There is a risk here that we often overlook. The Russian military is now actually larger than it was in 2022 and some of the more "elite" formations that were mauled in 2022 are now back to operational strength and fighting effectively.
Meanwhile both Ukraine and Russia are being forced to improvise on a modern battlefield at a pace that only really exists in wartime. (the whole drone and "cheap loitering munitions" space has really developed during this conflict.
While sanctions certainly have an effect we also overestimate that effect. Russia has managed to increase its arms production and continues to trade on the world markets. (Russian oil and gas is being sold as far and wide as Brazil, India and China and continues to be sold into the EU market through intermediaries despite sanctions!)
None of this has stopped them being able to make those bloody hypersonic missiles that daily terrorize Ukraine and degrade Ukrainian infrastructure.
We in the west (and I absolutely include Europe here) need to stop sitting on our hands hoping it all goes back to "business as usual" and collectively do better because no matter how "weakened" Russia may be by this conflict and associated sanctions even a weak but victorious Russia sets an unwelcome precedent.
And that’s before factoring the massive increase in defense export contracts for the U.S. and future shifts in the global arms market as countries are witnessing how badly the Russian equipment is performing.
Ukraine requires double its current anti air capacity.
Dont worry Joe it'll be over soon
The information the guest gives is both significant on both the military history of Kursk but also the current situation.
But for me, I have to say I am impressed with the interviewer who asked questions and actually let the person answer.
I get fed up with interviewers across the globe in different formats and different news organizations who can't keep quiet during an answer to their question.
Good going sir.
Putler still can’t stop the Ukrainian advance in Kursk!
Ukraine will be free!
Ukraine will be great!
There will be peace in Ukraine!
Ukraine will be!
Why stop they are advancing into a forest using their best troops whilst Russia is gaining in the Donbas which was one of its objectives Kursk just another PR stunt to fool the foolish into thinking Ukraine is winning Unfortunately there are a lot of iditols out there
Which advance ?
Delusional liars...Spreading fake narrative
@@yvanmargineanu9807 We can hope. But the west needs to take this more seriously. The military production lines need to be expedited. Countries are still acting like this is peace time. Get the fing factories rolling already.

With what's going on in Ukraine, any nation relying on the US for protection might be disappointed.
It's incomprehensible why the Ukraine/Russia war is not ALL OVER the news media instead of constant playing of the Israel/Gaza-Hamas conflict.
The International Court lost a very good opportunity to see him arrested after the dictator visited Mongolia...🤨

@@ГеннадийСеднев-м3щ There was no reason for Crimea to "carry" such nonsense, but Russia forced the rigged referendum on them after they drove Ukrainian speakers out.
Turnabout is fair play. Now that the Russians have been evacuated, it's time to vote and see if Kursk area residents want to join Ukraine.
The advantage the Russians had over the Germans, in WW2, was Britain had given them the German's battle plans for Kursk.

How dare rashans say it's a provocation ? To quote French author Michel Audiard : "Jerks dare anything; it's how you spot them."
Everything is a provocation to narcissist thinkers
I really think this is quite negative regarding the Kursk salient. The northern border is protected by the river Seyn and Russians are trapped to the west. The east will need protection but the forces being sent are conscripts and FSB police.
Putin knows the games up.
change that to elinskij and you are right.
Thats the main confusion and mistake that lots of experts still make - russia is not a soviet union and soviet union is not russia. its a soviet union who fought nazis (and thats Ukraine, Belarus, Kazahstan , russia and other soviet republics). And now its russia who started the war against Ukraine. Thats why western countries overestimated russia - they were thinking "soviets"
I have actually noticed that many of the achievements that Russians are proud of are actually Ukrainian, other examples are the An 225 (the worlds largest Airplane, that Russia destroyed shortly after the war began.) Sergey Korolyov (the Man who designed basically all of their Space Vehicles, Their Version of Von Braun but even more involved.) and their Aircraft Carrier (Built in Ukraine and stolen by Russia after the fall of Soviet Union, even though it was not quite finished and they had no Dockyards that could even fit it.)
Putin thought that he could win a boxing match against Klitschko. But when he entered the ring he had to discover there were in fact TWO Klitschkos!
Love this guy , he's so smart 👍
"They've got Moxie!" For non-US viewers, Moxie is a pepper-ish, energy soft-drink, and this was its advertisement slogan in the 1930s. This slang term was popular when the General was young,, to describe someone who is a courageous underdog.
Good video for those who don't really want to know the truth.

Well, in Russia the truth now has its boots on.
And it has begun kicking.

TELL THE TRUTH.
It is understood the invasion into Ukraine is not Putin's idea alone. The thinking behind this comes from the Kremlin for better or worse and expect more of this regardless of Putin's status in the regime.
Aah, but will any replacement have anywhere near as much charisma and charm?
Not to mention the ninja level 4D chess skills.
Oh, And the complete absence of a soul or shred of humanity.
NO excuses for Putin!!!Putin rules over the Kremlin. The Ukrainians are fighting for their very existence!!!
NEVER PUTIN/TRUMP/RUSSIA/MAGA/CRIMINALS/FRAUDS/MURDERERS/DICTATORS/CHILD THIEVES!!!
He is the one. HE has the POWER .... HE can influence anyone he wants to and 'HE' made the decision.
Maybe, but the temporary chaos it will cause will make it impossible to carry on the war. To remove putin would destabilise the regime and cause a power struggle between factions.
@@marisabenson1222 GOOD!!! LET's GET TO IT!!! Bye-Vlad!!!
Probably it was Ukrainians who won Kursk for the Soviet Union. It certainly seems to be where the best and brightest ex Soviets are.
Is that your personal opinion having personally met so many of both?
@atapene I haven't known many Russians or Ukrainians but I'm going to side with the country that wants to be peaceful and productive part of the EU, supports free speech, and it's people don't live in fear of their own government.
If you can't figure this one out then I'll just have to assume that you are a Russian troll who can't conceive of these types of things.

That would be a good start for all our nations who claim that they are by Ukraine's side.
Also the Aslong as it takes needs to stop.
We are winning, we are winning. Russia has been defeated. Brig. Gen Peter Napoleon.
Several critical factors, most significantly the insufficient access to resources, unfamiliar, freezing terrain, and the strategic efforts of the French military leaders, influenced the defeat of Napoleon by the Russians in 1812.
How did the Germans lose Stalingrad?
Although German forces led a strong attack into Soviet territory, a strategic counteroffensive by Soviet forces flanked and surrounded a large body of German troops, eventually forcing them to surrender. 1943

@@wagnerngandu2567 The US and the UK gained air superiority over German airspace by 1944 - this has a massive effect upon Germany's ability to manufacture, transport and effect a defence on its Eastern front - the USSR did not have ihis capability.
Good to hear other perspectives and stories, well done
The US General did get the pronunciation of Kursk right (at 8'39") which Times interviewers don't seem to be able to muster. To paraphrase: "Why can't the English (bis) teach their children to speak"?😉
We've heard that hundred times already. Putin is still there.
Very difficult to controle 🙄
I admit that 🙂↔️
It's the US support of Ukraine that has brought it to this point
The Russians attacked Ukraine, it had nothing to do with the US. Also Russia does not plan on stopping, until we stop them. Just ask their neighbors like Moldova or Georgia.
@user-wg. So you are saying that Ukraine should have simply given in to Putin's desire to make them part of his new fascist Russian empire ???
I keep thinking back to the fact that there seemed to be no way militarily for Putin to prevent Wagner from reaching Moscow. That was only 8,000 men. Of course they were Russian and if they reached Moscow and forced Putin to flee they might have been able to take the reigns of government and access additional supplies and forces from that point, whereas a Ukrainian raid in Moscow would be an at least brigade sized suicide mission, so not really feasible except maybe in the case of a general collapse of the Ukrainian lines creating a now or never situation. Yet the action movie fan in me refuses to stop asking “what if?” .
It’s odd that he would leave the country during this time.
Any armchair general sees that if the west wants Ukraine to win, they need a ton more help. Sadly anybody and his grandmother has their own interest in what happens with any material that goes to Ukraine, and the outcome.of the comflict. People don't care enough about freedom and freedom from Putin's policies in the world.

The ukrainians have another incursion West of Kursk meaning there is a large territory between that and Kursk sourounded by Ukraine on the West, Sout and East, and they will most like conquor that territory by attacking South of the river Sejm.
yes the battles of Kursk and Poltava were very important in history.
Just like the battle of the ardennes forest was...

A nice touch to end with from the general. It reminded me of another former US general (General Hodges) speaking to Ines Pohl of DW News. At the end, almost without thinking about it, she reverted to German, "See you soon, auf Wiedersehn!" to which, without missing a beat, Hodges responded with a cheery "Auf Wiedersehn. Tschüss!"

I just hope Ukraine doesn't get pushed out of kursk area because Putin is just gonna follow Ukrainian troops over the border and continue to push I really hope Ukraine holds them otherwise it will be another front that they have to keep manned and they are already stretched defending against the Russians further down the front and western military aid needs to be delivered quicker instead of weapons being stuck in a warehouse being held up by red tape the West has massive transport abilities but they aren't being used
The Europeans know what they are dealing with, the US is just further away… for now… the question is, how much do you want to spend? The longer… the more expensive.

Putins Wrath God Help
so what is it? ramp up air defense or drop the restrictions on Ukraine to remove the threat from the outset? Are we in a situation where we , the West are prolonging this war because it is financially beneficial?
No, it's about the Russian nuclear threat. The role of a national leader is to first protect the citizens of that country. The US president, for example, needs to not risk Americans being hit by Russian nukes even if it means not throwing the full support of the US behind Ukraine.
Sadly yes
You finally get it lol
why is there an interruption of speech and some random guy start talking after fadeout at 0:48?
How about you do some real journalism and showcase the alternative perspective as well as the anti Russian side. We might be able to make up our own minds based on a balanced view instead of the narrative. Russia and Putin aren’t going away that easily and say Putin does go - how sure are we his replacement will be better?
