countries have such short memories of world war 2, Norway should KNOW better.
Roland that was a very comprehensive ukraine update and well appreciated.
Considering all the money Norway makes from their natural resources (I heard 330 mil. Norwegian Kroners per month) it is a pitiful amount for Ukraine to be honest. Norway isn't even given any of this money to their citizens.. I am hoping other countries will put pressure on Norway, Ukraine is really hurting and we need to push Russia back to their own borders.
apparently they make around £4b GBP per month from OIL this year. according to google anyway.

pushing Russia back is literally impossible. The only question is whether Ukraine's surrender be unconditional or conditional.
I hope Norwegians do not have to wear paperclips on their lapels again nor have a Quisling

Sadly the Norwegian support to Ukraine has been pitiful. Even this war makes us richer.
yeah we're not covering ourselves with Glory
The "richer" part is the answer. As always, short-term gains lead to long-term consequences for generations.
Makes me happy that the political community in Norway has not yet produced a leader as catastrophic as Boris.
The bar is low
Roland and James are the A-Team!
Good update.
The cheapest way to stop this war is to give Ukraine the means to defend themselves NOW. Not trickle funding the war for decades.
Fully agree. The final tragedy of this war may be the West's foolish refusal to give Ukraine the ability to defend not just itself, but Europe and America too.
@@sebastianforbes1 NATO has 7 of the 11 biggest economies in the world. We haven't run out of either.
@@drewmalesky9869 sebastian was talking from a Russian perspective - the Russian economy will collapse in 2026, earlier if the oil price lowers!
@@sebastianforbes1 Russia's entire economy is held up on reserves right now. I guess we will find out who has deeper pockets. Russia or the 32 member states of NATO.
Slava ukraini 🇺🇦 🇺🇸 🇬🇧
I agree that support of a free press is critical in maintaining the educated public that is critical to a functioning Democracy. We do have some obviously slanted "news" sources in America (Fox), but even they are better than obvious government propagandists. I'm a paying supporter of English and American newspapers, I encourage others to do the same.
Also, my thanks to your Norwegian guest for helping to keep Ukraine's fight for freedom present and real for his fellow citizens. The "fatigue" that's setting in is as fatal as a bullet...
@@sebastianforbes1 Oh, and yes, I do.
I was troubled by the lack of clarity on funding cuts
🇸🇰🤝🇺🇦
Listening from Vancouver. Great job.
I live in Iceland, where we do even less per capita. Don't let us get away with that. The fact that we don't have a military isn't an excuse; we still have an economy, even if a small one.
I cannot get my mind to accept that people who should know better actually want a restrictive regime? I suppose that is a “proof" that a lot of stupid people are out on the streets!
As Dom is not on the podcast today, we actually got a detailed report of events on the ground, instead of the usual zero reports on here of what is actually happening on the ground from Dom.
We have been dumping 300 million *per day* in Afghanistan for over 20 years. With the "Nation Building" and pallets of cash to tribal chiefs.
For whatever reasons Ukraine is not a worthy candidate for an experiment like this. Imagine the payoffs!
I do not normally compliment The Telegraph for their Ukraine coverage, but today I found it reasonable.
No Dom today. This may have been a factor.
So does Sund-Hendriksen think that the assasination against Fico in Slovakia was a part of this fight for democracy?
🇵🇱🇺🇦❤️
Anyhow.
There's Brandon and nuttanyoyo cowardly running to the bunker while El Jefe Putin is out there leading and defending.
Happy birthday Mr President
Amid the ongoing heavy battles on the Donbass frontlines, the Russian army achieved new victories in the war-torn city of Chasov Yar.
As a result of the series of offensive operations in heavy urban battles, Russian forces broke through Ukrainian defense and advanced in the Zhovtnevy (Oktyabrsky) district in Chasov Yar. As a result of heavy battles, the Armed Forces of Ukraine suffered losses and were forced to retreat west of Vatytina street. As a result, Russian foothold in the city on the southern bank of the Seversky Donets-Donbass canal enlarged.
Earlier, Russian forces took the full control of the Kanal district located on the northern bank of the canal. The Ukrainian military attempts to resist in the Novy district on the eastern part of the city.
The retreat of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the quarters of the Oktyabrsky district allows the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation to take control of the next heights in the city. The city of Chasov Yar itself is located on the heights and control of them allows to take fire control of wide areas at long distances.
I have been up in the very north of Norway. It was midsummer so only a few spots of snow around. It was very green and beautiful. No trees as it is so far north. I remember sitting on a picnic bench overlooking a fjord. As it was so beautiful but not so warm the thought crossed my mind "This would be a great place to visit in the summer". Then I realised, it was mid-summer weekend! Driving further east along the coast it occurred to me I should turn south into Finland before I ended up in Murmansk. Despite all the friendly vibes with the new Russia I was still suspicious of what I knew had been a vile and monstrous state for hundreds of years that had cause much grief for my Czech family. Ran out of gas in the middle of know where in the Finnish forrest, but there are people living everywhere up there, made it to a gas station in a tiny village just as they were closing up for the day.
what does this have to do with anything?
It explains why Norwegians take Russians for granted
@@fredburns6846 Helps the channel I suppose
I'm afraid Roland is not inspiring

Another supporter of murdering people and imprisoning dissidents - get back to the abyss!
Norge 🇧🇻 is smart not dumping billions into dead end project Ukraine.
Nas Sweden and Finland recently joined NATO - I wonder why krazy - it surely cannot be the invasion of Ukraine by Russia which is resulting in murder, torture and rape.
