    If Roman does NOT become a motivational speaker, it will be a loss to many people. He has such a calm, reasoned attitude towards everything he does, including being on the front lines during a war. I would be a basket case, but he has taught himself some very powerful control over his emotions and his thoughts. I would absolutely go and listen to this man give motivational speeches. He has a lot to teach people.

      But he have to fight till the Americans can get control over the Donbass, so that the oil and natural gas can be harvested. This is the only reason why this war happened.
      Hunter Biden made a contract with the new Ukrainian government in 2014 that they get the resources from the soil of Donbass in exchange for the 5 billion USD what the Americans gave them (the Bandera fan-clubs) prior to 2014.
      As Biden was president, the time for payment was near. Now the Ukraine lost 300.000 man and many with missing arms and legs, because of this pay-back.
      I have a friend in Ukraine, he was a student here in Germany and he knows that this is all about money. The Ukrainian government do not care about the Ukrainian people. They send waves and waves of man against the Russians, because they can not talk about money.

    He gave Death a personality at 4:15, which is a cool way of humanizing and creating a natural understanding of a horrible situation. "Death is our really close friend, he'll say alright it's your time let's go." It makes it almost...friendly in a sense, showing that it's a normal process.

Sailors have always considered their ships to be female. This fine young man, kind of a perfect specimen, is single with no kids... perhaps it is poignant he thinks of Death as his female friend.

      Don't be ridiculous. If Russia captures Ukraine, the few things that will change for the Ukrainians will be that they'll have a different passport than now and they'll live in a country that cracks down on woke stuff. I'd like it if we had a dictator that would make the hohols really feel the punishment for their russophobia and gloating over the suffering of people of Donbass, but unfortunately the Russian government's line is "common people are not at fault, it's only Nazis and the corrupt goverment". I personally think that there is no one who's not at fault there, but the "horrors that await Ukrainians if Russia wins" are all made up by the Ukrainian and Western propaganda.

My best wishes for the people of Ukraine but I don’t see why we americans should pay for their war, our own country is economically collapsing and since the beginning of time war is the way of our world, even now in many countries people are dying left to right to corrupt dictatorships and oppression of all kinds, I honestly don’t see the point in helping russians fight other russians.

      Nothing would change. We have had so many wars now, ww1, ww2, gulf war. The supreme leaders won't stop at anything, nor the terrorists. Everyone wants to avoid a war like situation.

      @You Tube Russia will be blessed when it leaves Ukraine in peace and gets rid of its psychopath 'leader'. Ukrainians are not 'giving up' their lives, but dedicating them to their nation's future.
