They will evade corruption charges by buying greatly underpriced luxury assets, that may have once belonged to Ukrainians, and then selling those luxury assets at full market value for a handsome profit.
Zelensky didn't try to prevent the conflict through diplomacy because he lacks honor and integrity. In 2014 there was a coup. Soon after, there was a massacre in Odessa (dozens of people were burned alive). Ethnic Russians living in Ukraine were treated as subhuman. Their language and culture was being oppressed. A civil war broke out due to the rise in ethnic tensions. For 8 years the Ukrainian military was indiscriminately shelling civilians living in Donbas. If Zelensky honored the Minsk agreement and pledged neutrality, none of this would have happened. The 8 year civil war would have ended and Donbas would have remained part of Ukraine. War is the ultimate failure of diplomacy. Zelensky, Poroshenko, Merkel and Hollande admitted that Ukraine had no intention to honor the Minsk agreements. Who didn't want peace? Who advised against the 2022 peace talks in April? Hint: someone visited Zelensky in Kiev at that time. Russia's national security was compromised once NATO began to expand eastwards. Russia clearly stated that Ukraine joining NATO was a red line (November 2021) and unfortunately this concern was never taken seriously. The Russians openly stated: if nothing changes, we will be forced to act in order to defend our national security. Enhancing the national security of one country at the expense of another is unacceptable. The Russians have legitimate security concerns. 20th September, 2021: Ukraine launched military drills with US and NATO. NATO is not a defensive alliance. NATO illegally bombed Yugoslavia (a direct violation of the U.N. Charter). We should never forget what they did to Libya, Afghanistan, Iraq etc. Who blew up the pipeline causing an environmental disaster? Zelensky banned all opposition and arrested a leading priest.

Poroshenko said, “Our children will go to schools and kindergartens-theirs will hide in the basements”. Russians will never forget the 2014 Odessa massacre. The whole world needs to know about it.

I guess Ukraine always thought NATO would be the winner in a proxy war with Russia. I think that makes sense because you would think the power of NATO and its sanctions would work against Russia which supposedly has an economy smaller than Spain as we have been told.

The Galicians have started to withdraw from Donetsk two weeks ago. All they do is keep some hapless troopers at the front to buy time. Everything and everyone else has been evacuated. Commenders have withdrawn by 20km in some cases more. The only ones who are still fighting are the dumb and the natsis. Progress is exponential now and we can project that if this is November 1944 then can expect that Kiev falls in May 2025, because systemic collapse is very sudden in the end and gains by the victors is relatively slow until 6 -8 weeks before the fall of a regime and their capital. Berlin and Saigon are reliable benchmarks for the exponential collapse model.
Agreed. In July I thought it would be by the end of this year. Recent gains by the victors may no longer be looking relatively slow. Soon progress will be limited only by logistics.

Because they were confident that sanctions together with kicking Russia out of SWIFT payment system would be enough to crush Russia, so they didn't need to use their trained soldiers for a long proxywar. That's why European leaders choose to block themselves from enough cheap recourses, They believed that responsible politicians in Washington have control over their plan, huge self-destructive mistake 😢
Yet Dutch Admiral Rob Bauer complaints that if it weren’t for Russia’s nukes NATO forces would have intervened and kicked out the Russians. No Sierra Einstein, as if it wasn’t known that Russia was nuclear superpower before 2014! Are these people really so incompetent that they do not know the power dynamics of nuclear superpowers? They really expected Russia to fold up economically, politically, and militarily - I’ll add diplomatically and geopolitically to that - that western sanctions plus some Ukrainian battlefield successes would lead to a quick collapse and regime change in Russia, that Russians would welcome the west as their saviors and accept the continuation of the 90-ies economic take over and ultimate break up of Russia. Instead the new geopolitical reality must come as a complete shock, especially the factual demilitarization of NATO and the difficulty of its MIC to keep up production of stocks and replacement. Four decades of neoliberalism have left their mark on western industry - it is gutted. Now Europe has lost its access to cheap energy as well. The Global South has an alternative source of finance with China and Russia working outside of the US and European controlled IMF etc. Now Rob complaints that Russia has nuclear weapons? This has always been the great equalizer. It has always been the big door stop. It has always stood in the way of defeating Russia militarily, because its nuclear status would always have been the next stage in conflict. If Rob Bauer believes that Russia will accept NATO advancing in Russia with the use of nuclear weapons he wasn’t deserving of leading a ship’s kitchen let alone being an admiral leading NATO. Patrolling some area against insurgents is not the same as peer super power conflict. So yes, Admiral Bauer, Russia is a nuclear superpower with first and second strike capability and an advanced nuclear triad, arguably superior if you include hypersonic weapons and its ADS capabilities.

Napoleon (First French Empire) and Hitler (Nazi Germany), both touted as the prophesied antichrists, failed to defeat Russia when they tried to advance to Moscow
Russia intensifies fighting after Trump’s win. In addition to resuming strikes on Kyiv, Moscow has increased its drone strikes across Ukraine by 44%. Ivan Stupak, a former Ukrainian security officer, says, “In the next few months up to Jan. 20, we are expecting a significantly increasing number of launches towards Ukraine.” “Launches” from Russia have indeed been steadily increasing. According to Stupak, there were 818 launches in August, 1,410 in September, and 2,072 in October. Ground attacks have intensified as well, especially in the border area of Kursk. Russians liberated Rivnopil in Donetsk Oblast - DeepState: Analysts from the DeepState project have updated their map on the night of 14-15 November, noting that Russian forces have occupied the village of Rivnopil in Donetsk Oblast. Russian forces have also advanced near the settlements of Plekhovе, Nova Illinka, Novodmytrivka, Petrivka, Antonivka, Voznesenka and Novoselydivka. Rivnopil was taken from the Russians during the Ukrainian Armed Forces' counteroffensive on 25 June 2023. The deeper Ukraine’s demographic crisis grows as a result of its ongoing war with Russia, the more its long-term viability as a state teeter. Most had begun the war with patriotic zeal, with many believing in the possibility of a total Ukrainian victory. By the summer of 2024, almost all of them have trimmed their expectations as they wrestled with the fear that the United States and its allies had traded hopes of a Ukrainian fantasy victory and for the more practical goal of weakening Russia. In Ukraine the demographic figures speak for themselves. According to a report by the Ukrainian Institute for the Future, the overall population had declined to 29 million people (Actually it is 18 - 22 million) in 2023 - compared to 48.5 million in 2001. Today, the exact figure remains difficult to establish, due to state capacity to conduct surveys throughout the country and the fact that several eastern EU countries have opened their border checkpoints to traveling Ukrainians. Moreover, the country's demographic pyramid has inverted due to aging, low birth rates, and emigration, such that there are roughly 9.5 million employed people whose taxes provide for 23 million pensioners, children, and unemployed people. However, in many cases, it is unclear whether those receiving government transfers currently reside in Ukraine or collect their benefits abroad. Furthermore, Ukraine depends not only on tax revenues but also on budget support from its allies to pay the salaries of public sector employees. Another 900,000 men of military age are not registered in any government systems and thus cannot be conscripted. Of the 3.4 million military-age men in the workforce, 600,000 are considered critical workers and thus unlikely to face conscription. The remaining cohort of potential conscripts therefore numbers just 2.8 million - roughly equal to the number of those who have fled or are disabled. Consequently, Ukraine faces a 1-for-1 tradeoff between conscripting men into the armed forces or leaving them in the workforce, where they can support the government by paying taxes and otherwise keeping the economy afloat. The Ukrainian economy relies on funding from allies. Revitalized American support might mean more money or better arms for Ukraine’s military, but it cannot produce more Ukrainians to carry them into battle. As the Ukrainian government steps up efforts to replenish its troops from a dwindling supply of eligible military-age men, every soldier recruited to the front means one less worker and potentially one less father. Today, Ukraine needs those men to fill the ranks of its armed forces. Tomorrow, it will need those men to return home, rebuild their lives, rebuild their families, and, ultimately, rebuild their country.

Window of opportunity for Russian advance during American election has closed. New American administration cannot stop support to Ukraine. Moreover it will be winter and new American weapon and amno Ukraine forces will freeze the frontlines. Russian will require entire Naval force Airforce and Military to Capture Zaprozhzhia or Kherson or Odessa. I think Russians should end this war with these borders.
Russia won't end the war untill USA will agree on Russian terms about security concerns in Europe. Untill then, Russia has no reason to give Ukranians any break to regroup and gain back strenght.

Instead the new geopolitical reality must come as a complete shock, especially the factual demilitarization of NATO and the difficulty of its MIC to keep up production of stocks and replacement. Four decades of neoliberalism have left their mark on western industry - it is gutted. Now Europe has lost its access to cheap energy as well. The Global South has an alternative source of finance with China and Russia working outside of the US and European controlled IMF etc. Now Rob complaints that Russia has nuclear weapons?

It has always stood in the way of defeating Russia militarily, because its nuclear status would always have been the next stage in conflict. If Rob Bauer believes that Russia will accept NATO advancing in Russia with the use of nuclear weapons he wasn’t deserving of leading a ship’s kitchen let alone being an admiral leading NATO. Patrolling some area against insurgents is not the same as peer super power conflict. So yes, Admiral Bauer, Russia is a nuclear superpower with first and second strike capability and an advanced nuclear triad, arguably superior if you include hypersonic weapons and its ADS capabilities.

@@WokHay-t4nThey can't make money on land they don't own. Russia is taking all the land with the valuable natural resources.
Not at all. The grift works because nobody can verify the actual value of this fabulous mineral wealth suddenly discovered beneath an active war zone. The whole point is to move other peoples' money to a well-oiled laundering machine, with a happy fraction of that other peoples' money finding its way into the pockets of those who sent it on that merry path.
@@WokHay-t4n Not US government the oligarchs {billionaires} private military company's and share holders that pay and control U.S government and 10% for the big guy, keep spinning cope bro, but deep down you must relies your being lie to
BlackRock, IMF and EU: knock knock. Zelensky: who is at the door. BlackRock, IMF and EU: we need our money back because you promise us Donbass natural resources, but the Russians are on full speed to take the whole of Donbass.

It's a truthful quote, more than ever.
This is the end, my friend, the end...
Asi es, la pregunta es....si ya todos sabian el final porque impulsaron a Ukrania a este suicidio ?? No era mejor ahorrarse vidas ?? Creo que zelensky , macron etc son criminales de guerra

Amazing commentary Dima.
To summarise everything
Thank you for your efforts, Dima! Appreciate you!
Straight to the point with no ridiculous stories
Zelensky threatened to create another 10 points plan.....Unfortunately its not irony😂😂😂
Alastair Crooke, the victory narrative is a Ponzi scheme.
Thank you Dima and team for your tireless efforts to keep us informed!❤
Zelensky should be removed immediately before is too late for everybody!!!
Peace ☮ for everyone from Russia 🇷🇺
We are not enemies.
Crimean people can decide about their future.
Not with almost everyone in Crimea running away and being replaced by russians.
@eternalstudios4502
On Crimea there always lived mostly Russians, so how can they be replaced?
@@eternalstudios4502 Russians are majority population in Crimea a long before ww2
@@eternalstudios4502 that's a lie ukranazi, thae majority of the people in crimea always was russian...
You're not from Russia.
As predicted Eastern Kupiansk has been deserted by the Galicians. They are behind the river now.
Will they send in kidnapped boys from the streets now? Seems to be their 'strategy' of creating 2000 Ukrainian/foreign casualties per day.

I know I'm quite late in saying this but it would be realy soothing if you learned to use the term "Town" instead of calling everything bar the smallest of villages a city.
Then a village is a village, and a town a town. Why call a village a town? Otherwise it defeats the whole purpose.
This is already insignificant.
and if he stopped calling towns, cities, areas, and other things "directions".
Oh, and by the way, "move in the northern direction" => "move north".

Nope, they do not.

@troller8680 I don't know what Russia is waiting for Toretsk and Chasov Yar,Seversk and other stronghold,where are Mr FABs ?
Dima frustrated that UAF is losing? I can hear it in his voice
thats what im talking about
@@LansiOwO I'd imagine making these videos every day would wear anyone out over time. I mean, I have a hard time watching these because people are dying on both sides, soldiers and civilians. Sometimes we see videos of some guy's last moments, it messes me up. Who knows how Dima deals with it
Tru, because there are videos he can't post just to protect his viewers @@geobot9k
Nope, you're completely off target.
miles off base, if anything he leans more towards the Russian perspective, though on the whole is pretty balanced...if prone to the odd flight of fancy when something interesting happens..
Window of opportunity for Russian advance during American election has closed. New American administration cannot stop support to Ukraine. Moreover it will be winter and new American weapon and amno Ukraine forces will freeze the frontlines. Russian will require entire Naval force Airforce and Military to Capture Zaprozhzhia or Kherson or Odessa. I think Russians should end this war with these borders.
😅😅😂😂
Trump administration will cease support for Ukraine, domestic issues will get preference.
Russia won't end the war untill USA will agree on Russian terms about security concerns in Europe. Untill then, Russia has no reason to give Ukranians any break to regroup and gain back strenght.
Inevitable Collapse Of Ukrainian Army!!!! (Russia advances on settlement with 2 houses)
ok
Such cope is so cliched, it's boring
Ukrainian Army is still strong. They still have a big potential to lose men.
@@nisargjani8050 Not sure that should be the goal... they can't win

It's shame for Russia and Putin they can't regain Kursk yet. Day by day loses are huge for Russian army.
Kursk is a trap for Ukrainians, -30k nazis
Russia does not care about PR/Social Media. Kursk helped Russia to gain territory in Ukraine. Russia does not follow social media strategy. I hope Ukraine send there more resources. Russia will definitely gain from long lines of battles.
This channel would be way better if Dima wouldn't talk so fast, what's the hurry?

I watch at 2.0 speed. Otherwise I fall asleep, which is actually not a bad idea, since it's 4am
