“there’s nothing worse than people dying in silence.”
my deepest gratitude for all the journalists risking their lives to show us the truth.
Sign of weakness yet Putin have 6,000 nuclea weapons. CIA think they can regime change Putin government without china interfering 😂😂

Truth has the same effect on Putin as sunlight to vampires. In fact, I'm pretty sure that if you shine sunlight on Putin he will be reduced into a pile of ashes.

On RUclips copy/paste the name of the British journalist in that region of Ukraine who has been showing everything the MSM has been hiding from the public:
Graham Phillips Donbass
@naggers jaggers Not a good analogy. Try again.
@@lodewijklangeweg742 But you don't watch the MSM, so how do you know? Because they told you? You seem like the type that believes everything they are told.
Don't quote that bloated hack. I guarantee he saw that somewhere else and just reworded it.
@naggers jaggers That's got to be the STUPIDEST analogy I've ever read. Wow.
I teared up at the thought of those parents having to carry their sick children away from hospitals. Brilliant reporting, thank you for making the realities of this war known.
I’m crying too. My teenage daughter had an aggressive cancer less than 2 years ago. I literally can’t imagine trying to save her life while trying to protect her from a war that’s also trying to kill her. There was no way we could have moved her bcuz she was too sick. These families are being made to do something unthinkable and possibly impossible in some cases; all bcuz Russia is targeting civilians. These are war crimes of the highest order. Where is their humanity?
Yes agree. And the news clip on just the other day about the Mom in Ukraine holding her baby while crying that she no longer has any food for him and she didn't know what to do to get food for her family, Putin is indeed a monster; he's shown that over and over.
@@looking4r Bombing hospitals is one of the worst things humans have thought up. I hope your daughter is doing well.
@@jamesirwin8917 the Ukraine can produce enough food every year to feed 600 million people.....

“there’s nothing worse than people dying in silence.” - Anderson Cooper's voice breaking over that phrase is so... heartbreaking *respect* Anderson - *respect* - to you, to other journalists, and everyday people capturing and sharing the truth
Thank you for this Mr. Cooper...drowning in empathy tears! 😭
@@patriciamcadams3519 the man is on the ground in Ukraine to document this crisis. He's traveled to a country at war so that he can help report the truth of what's going on there.
There's a lot of people you can accuse for doing nothing but crying tears of sympathy., Anderson is not one of them.
It's horrible. And it can end in an instant if the Ukrainian government surrenders.
@@duyataksis5210 meaning?
@@duyataksis5210 how about Putin gets the hell out of a sovereign country.he started this shit
There is even more to this elderly woman Anderson Cooper is talking about near the end of the video. She is one of the last survivors of the blockade of Leningrad. During WW2 the city was completely surrounded by Nazi Germany and Finnish troops, to cut off the population from food supplies in order to take the city. The siege lasted from 1941 to the beginning of 1944 and nearly 1.1 million civilians died of diseases or starvation. Now in her late 80s, she still has the strength and courage to protest and advocate for peace. The fact that the Russian police doesn't even stop at a survivor of this tragedy, a national hero, only shows the complete ruthlessness of Putin.
Wow, thank you!
Thank you for sharing this, this woman is an inspiration for courage.
Yelena Osipova is her name, for anyone interested.
@@sigi9669 - Thank you for sharing her name. Now we know whom to honor.
I pray that she's doing well and that someone else around her will help her. Such bravery! God bless her!🙏❤
Anderson's humanity is just heartbreaking. I remember Katrina and Sandy Hook and the Pulse Nightclub massacre and I remember his humanity in reporting those tragedies. I cried then and I'm crying now. I hope he keeps speaking truth to power and comes home to his children soon.
When he spoke about the mothers having to take desperately ill children and flee to get better treatment... yeah. He's a parent, I'm a parent, you may well be a parent - it hits deep (especially when you've had an acutely ill child for even a relatively short length of time). But you observe rightly that he has ALWAYS been that humanitarian man. He really is passionate about people and what he does.
I cried too, hon. Prayer works for some - I am going to go look now, though, and see what other options there are for the support of Ukrainian civilians, at such a remove. My attention got derailed recently by flooding in my area - watching him here got me focussed on the details of this war-crime again 😞
Anderson is a Jerk
You know he's a CIA asset right? The CIA asset makes you cry? You need to get a grip.
I liked when he was up to his chest in water, standing in a drainage ditch, as people walked by in the background, proving what a deceptive, manipulation, piece of shit, he is.
@@Ziggy_Moonglow Nice Russia. Very disinfo. Watch the original report in context rather than the captioned meme. He was discussing (albeit in a sensationalist/dramatic way) the variations in flood heights at various pointa during the event qnd how q few steps in some directions could lead people to hidden hazards.
Here in Ireland, ive heard from syrian refugees about how painful it is to see the outpouring of unconditional support and love for ukraine. They jumped through such harrowing monstrous hoops to get to safety, and then the EU and North america opens its arms to ukraine. Its how it should be that this response to ukraine is as it is, but it is devastating for other refugees who see that their lives are somehow of less value, that we failed to recognise their humanity too.
I'm sorry, but that's not entirely the same. The Syrians only had to go to the neighboring countries to be safe, and a lot of them did. Of course a journey all the way to Europe is going to be more dangerous.
And we did end up taking a lot of them (talking about the EU now) and they got (and still get) every support and benefit that comes with living in a European country (access to education, health care, etc.). Most of them are doing very well.
Now, the Ukrainians are OUR neighbors, just like the Syrians were neighbors to a number of countries in the Middle East. It't not exactly our fault that they "only" have to march to Poland (and other countries) to get to safety.
I personally volunteered with refugees in 2015, and I assure you, they WERE welcomed by most people here (I'm from Austria). To me, it makes no difference where someone comes from. I see someone in need, I help them. That's it.
@@anette2050 im not sure years spent languishing in a refugee camp in Lebanon counts as a reasonable definition of "refuge". I dont agree that simply because of geographical proximity those conditions should be all a refugee in the middle east should hope for or be entitled to. You worjed with refugees in Austria but you know they are just a portion of the total displaced in tge syrian war. The point is that we in Europe have power and money and have been relatively hesitant to use it to help palestine , yemen, syria, the list goes on, but ukraine has a mass refugee exodus and suddenly mountains can be moved overnight to treat them with the decency and dignity and compassion they rightly deserve, but that was denied so many other refugees.
@@ruthk618 Well, I'm sure some of that is true. Still, I think it's just easier for most people to take in people from a neighboring country, who they see as similar to themselves. And this war IS very close to us. It might not seem that way in Ireland, but for us, the Ukrainian border is actually closer to Vienna than the city of Bregenz in western Austria.
Not to mention the fact that the majority of the people coming in 2015 were men, whereas now it's primarily women and children.
This is a European war, and it's understandable that Europeans would feel it more vividly than other wars.
@@codswallop321 that's fair. Two things can be true at once though, im just pointing out another perspective.
Thank you A.C. for sharing the human experience within this war. We need to remember that there are actual people who are suffering because of it.
I remember when Putin first came to power, we all joked about how he was a "Bond villain", he seemed like a caricature. As the years went on though and his grip on power tightened the jokes became less funny and now here we are, children dying, an 80 year old woman dragged into a van by state enforcers, a full scale disinformation campaign and all to maintain this image that Putin is a "strong man" and it's all just such a sad, pointless waste.
Remember as you watch any movie, there's always someone rooting for the bad guy. 🤔
"if only he was a couple inches taller" - Michael Che
You hear about the time Putin made a world judo champion lose a match to him on camera, probably under threat of imprisonment or death? Strong man, he is. I'd like a fair fight with him on camera right about now
He killed over 2 hundred of his own people in a staged bombing to get that seat of power
@@cc1k435 as someone who used to, and still does, root for Loki, I can attest to the accuracy of this statement.
You may love or hate these news stations CNN, NBC, Fox, etc., but you can't deny the fact that these journalists literally risking their lives in the war to cover these news for us. Salute to all journalists, thank you for your work and dedication.
@@armageddon2419 You mad, bro? Are you the only fan of state owned journalism? Err, propaganda, rather?
Fox Entertainment isn't a news station.
@@CosmicKungFu Give him a moment. He needs to use Google translate.
@culagh More importantly, Fox News is Extreme Right Wing Propaganda for Conspiracy Theorist Nutters.

Which Fox News correspondents are out there right now? Genuine question. Haven’t seen any.
I'm Ukrainian 🇺🇦 Thank you Mr Cooper, your reporting is great. And thank you Mr Colbert !
Amazing how much in depth news you can get from a late night talk show. Thanks Steve Jimmy and Seth for informing the world!!!👐👏🇺🇦
But these three right wing liberals never do segments on what people in Syria and Yemen and Palestine and Sudan have been going through!
Up all night coke addicts need to be misinformed like the rest of us.
@@owenmersk4626 Right wing? Really?
That's not what the rest of your hive considers them to be. You will be found guilty of wrong-think and punished by your tribe.
Really, though, your gormless words are humorous.
Thank you, Anderson Cooper, all of the CNN correspondents for reporting on the situation in Ukraine.
Indeed.
I also thank Ukrainians filming what they are going through on their phones and posting to the different personal media companies.
A big fan ever since Katrina. This becomes all the more meaningful especially through the eyes of the a father if two young kids of your own. Thanks for being there to tell the story. God bless you. Please be safe.
Truth.
I fell in love with Anderson during Katrina and his style of reporting was real and heart felt.
I was so caught up in it that I has called the station about the dogs that were stranded and he answered the phone and was just a nice as could be, assuring me that they were doing the best they could with what they had to work with to get help to the critters left behind. I was crying and he was very sincere and kind. I never forgot how he talked to calm me down, just being himself.
@@luvdylanstar Beautiful story. Thank you.
Really - you approve of what those kids are going through? Holy Shit you are as screwed in the head as he is.
@@thuringervonsausage5232 What? I suggest you reread.
The old lady he mentions was identified as Yelena Osipova, an artist and activist who was protesting in Saint Petersburg and, according to The Guardian, she is said to have survived the infamous wartime siege of Leningrad when German Nazi forces invaded the Soviet city during the Second World War.
If Anderson Cooper were a legitimate journalist, he would have known that about her.
Unbelievable courage from a reporter just doing his job.
Thank you for covering this, also thank you for this amazing show, it makes us people in Ukraine smile in these dark times 💜
For you, my Ukrainian sister, I send blessings of safety, courage & love. I hate what is happening to your world. Please know that mine is gobsmacked by your courage. Be Safe.
Many hugs to you. I wish our politicians would do more to help you. Slava Ukraini. 💛💙

As both a veteran, and a lifelong career in broadcasting, I am actually concerned and want to raise awareness that Anderson Cooper is daring to face the ugliness of war, as a truly loving dad. War is vicious and angers the men and women that really care. Say what you want, but as a broadcaster; Anderson, protect your 6… not just physically but mentally and emotionally
No he is not, quit Lying
“there’s nothing worse than people dying in silence.” Anderson got a little choked on that one. Me too.
These so called strong men are devoid of empathy. Ice water runs through their veins. Hollow, empty flawed human beings. That 80 yr old women puts them to shame.

I pray that we don't lose Anderson Cooper to a cowardly tyrant with the power of Polonium. I respect all of his war correspondence and Courage to Giggle, embrace LIFE..And Fu*cking Step Up to the Plate and make a Difference. You can lead a Horse to Water, but when he floats on his back...well then you got something. Respect!
Please be careful Anderson! I know you modestly say “relatively safe” but you’re still in a hot spot. Much respect from going from family leave from CNN on air directly to Ukraine. Your sons will grow up knowing what a brave and incredibly brave man their Father is!
It takes a war for Putin to prove he has less balls than an 80-year old grandmother.
Anderson has always been true to the people and for the people. You can tell this is his life's work. The truth with human ethics .No ego here.
Exactly. It’s amazingly refreshing. I think he’s one of the finest, most empathic, and well balanced human beings on the planet. He really “gets it.”
Putin becomes more dangerous as his desperation grows. Someone inside needs to take him out- politically or whatever.
Yeah, I agree.
He's poisoned so many, he knows what goes around comes around!
With everything hitting civilians and military being lied to, hopefully they stand up against him.
He needs taken out, literally!! This won't stop until he is!! His own need to stand against him and get it done. Now THAT would be courage!
Novichok baby!
I feel so helpless. God bless Ukraine.
I wish Anderson could just realize how much he means to us all, I hate seeing him so shell-shocked. He's gone through so much already as a journalist going to war, now knowing he's got his little boys at home and seeing the look in his eyes right now, he's shell shocked. He's traumatized by what's happening around him, especially seeing him talking about those sick babies.... I know obviously he didn't carry his little ones, but that's a new father regardless. the hormones and emotions that go along with having a new little one in the home are undeniable, I know he's just filled with empathy for every mother and father and family right now. 😰😰😰😰
OMG - Drank that Kool -Aid didn't ya Sucker

Thanks for covering these news for us. I live in the South of Bavaria. Our town is organizing busses to bring food, medicine, clothing, everything people donate to the Ukraine border and on the way back take people with them. Since Sunday refugees are arriving here in my town. Most are grandparents with grandchildren. Telling us, Mom and Dad stayed and are both fighting!
Vielen Dank, Annette. I have met many kind friendly people in Bayern, München, im Schwarzwald. The Ukrainian people are so brave; they will triumph against Putin. The people protesting in Russia are brave, as well. I stand for Ukraine. I stand for democracy. 🇨🇦 Slava Ukraine. 🇺🇦

The truth is the most scaring thing for dictators.
"We're here to bear witness". My god that's bravery and selflessness. I have nothing but the deepest respect & gratitude.
👍🏻🇺🇦👍🏻... We Are with Ya Anderson!
Anderson is one of the bravest and finest reporters of our lifetime. Regardless of anything here in the USA, he risks life and limb to go on-location and expose truths that we, the very ignorant, removed, and sheltered American people, usually don't see. It's not that we don't want to know. It's that we don't know what we don't know. And while he is a liberal-leaning reporter, I've known Anderson all my life to approach these stories not with political motives, but a human angle where he reminds us that terrible things are happening to normal people who don't deserve to suffer for political gain.
Beautifully said.
That's right, but don't forget, there are reporters from all countries, especially from European countries, for example Germany, UK, France and so on. Many of them are in dangerous places in Kiev or Odessa.
wow, that's really putin' him on a pedestal

Courage, as Churchill famously said, is the virtue that makes all other virtues possible. Without courage, the West cannot succeed, but with it, it cannot fail.
Well said. Ukrainians are a prime example!
Who killed many indians
The Guardian reports: "Alexei Navalny, the jailed Russian opposition leader, has predicted that anti-war momentum “will keep growing” across Russian society and called on protests in the country to continue."
Do I see a democratic Russia being born?
All of this is happening because of the insecurities of one short, little man-baby. At every level of society - national, local, workplace - if you see miserable people, just look behind them: you'll see a little man-baby trying to feel important.
Hats off to Anderson Cooper for his courage in being there, to bring us this latest on what's happening. He helps push me to do something to help Ukraine's people directly not just give them my prayers..
I love how they write Kyiv in Ukrainian language, and not Kiev as it's written in Russian.

Thanks for interviewing Anderson Cooper. Yes, CNN has always been an excellent reporter. He always names other reporters who r also in dangerous areas and putting out information of the current situation. Stay safe, as much as possible. Prayers for all involved during this terrible time.
I cannot even imagine the emotional rollercoaster that Anderson Cooper has to be on, being over in Ukraine, witnessing and reporting the terrifying news so professionally, with sensitivity, compassion, and as much accuracy as possible, when he has a toddler and newborn baby here in the United States. It has to be gut wrenching. He truly is an amazing individual.
Thank you for reporting the truth.
Thank you Anderson Cooper for your heartfelt witness of the truth in Ukraine. We can hear your voice breaking with emotion. Stay safe.
Thanks Anderson Cooper!🤙🤙
He did seem to be genuinely concerned when he said "there's nothing worse than people dying in silence..."

Glory to the People!
May all people everywhere experience the breath of life with joy as together we live, love, and create a world of shared peace and prosperity.
May we all have the courage to release ourselves from the bonds of all they who wrecklessly exercise power to the contrary.
I am grateful that Anderson Cooper has helped to raise awareness for the impact of war on disabled children. Though I wish they’d discuss disabled adults too - not just children & elderly.
The indomitable spirit of the Ukrainian people is an inspiration.
And the spirit of people in Palestine and Yemen and Somalia that have been resisting extreme violence for decades! Right wing liberals should report on them sometimes too!
@@owenmersk4626 nope, they cant get bent, bunch of terrorists and their enablers. Its basically a civil war in two of the 3. And Palestine does nothing but cut its own throat and elect terrorist so screw them to. South sudan deserves protection. yemen is a iran/Saudi created hellhole. And they will keep it that way as long as they can.
The coverage is great by US, BBC, Sky News, and more.
Don't forget DW - the German news program in English. Very informative.
I wouldn't trust Sky 'News' on anything.
🤣🤣🤣 nice one Catherine
Not FOX they are still reporting trash.
A man who has to fight his own people is not a leader - he's a villain!
There should be disclaimers and captions whenever broadcasting comments from Putin and Lavrov (and Trump for that matter) saying „This official is known to have lied repeatedly and deliberately“. Interviewers should also say it to their faces.
My God. Thank you Anderson. Keep reporting and touching hearts. My God.😪
Anderson risking life and limb to bring the truth please be safe
I am humbled by the heroic work by journalists who have taken the brunt of the ugliest of the political war here in the USA. I thank you & am sending you each the blessings of safety, of knowing how grateful those of us are who stand united for democracy.
I remember watching channel 1 news back in 1992 when Russia was still a young nation. We had to learn all the Soviet republics. I remember the harsh Putin crackdowns in the later '90s. Anderson Cooper and Lisa Ling were on. I'll miss you channel 1.
my deepest respect to Anderson and all those courageous journalists reporting from the most dangerous places in order that "nobody has to die in silence".
We need more old fashioned reporting, where real actions get the light of journalism.

It blows my mind that one man can cause all this damage. How do one man get this much power over peoples lives and they're all no repercussions? Just evil!!!!
He's been in office far too long, that's how!! No one man should be a leader of a country for more than the 8 yrs, like the USA policy of 2 four year terms!! PERIOD!! Anything more allows a person to build a supportive following that ends just as Russia has with Putin! Entirely too much power!!
Thank you

Just heartbreaking. Hard to hear, yet we all need to hear it.

Would be good if Adrienne Arsenault and Anderson Cooper did a joint report on the Ukraine story, she went through an old bunker that Ukrainians use, just incredible stories they are living under. Thank you for the truth. I saw that old woman I think her name was Yelen.
Just love Anderson Cooper. from Ireland. 💔
Its so good that light is being shone on this awful truly horrific situation, I hope that some diplomatic thing can be worked out or the suffering will not stop.
well said anderson. i know you have two young sons at home and as a parent myself, i commend your bravery & compassion going out into the danger fully knowing the risks of what could happen. your dedication to the truth is not lost on the american people and i hope you know how much you & your journalism is appreciated.
please stay safe along with your colleagues, & all other reporters in ukraine who are risking their lives to document and show the world what putin is doing, as well as showing the incredible bravery of ukrainians who are fighting for their country and loved ones.
Great advocacy Anderson!!!! A soldier of psychological truth.
Thank you both for this journalism showing the truth of this atrocity! May any and all higher powers be with and clothe in comfort as much as possible the brave survivors and fighters of freedom and human dignity.
Thank you Anderson for your invaluable reporting.
Just look at the number of reporters who “went through a window” and have been killed over the past dozen years in Russia. It drives me crazy. I am a woman who reads all news from many countries, cough, including Fox, when I can stomach it, and I make formulated decisions based on all sides. True reporters have unimaginable courage.
Well, governments all over the world have sophisticated ways to get rid of their unwanted citizens. Don't be a fool. Russia is just less discreet about it, because, you know, they don't care.
“No one does this better than CNN”
“BBC does”
“Oh it does?”
“Oh yeah”
I LOVE Anderson Cooper and everything he said during this interview!!!
Thank you for covering thus. Some of the most honest and best coverage
God bless this man! He’s just welcomed a new baby and he’s now in Ukraine for the war effort.
🌻.. .
Thank you for the facts and updates.
Great descriptions Anderson!
It is not rational that in order to let the Russian people know about the new law that makes it a crime to use the word war, or invasion or other words that are contrary to the State's version of their actions in Ukraine, and the new law is announced on State TV. Wouldn't that provoke people to immediately ask, "Why do we have this new law?" NOT RATIONAL!
You are used to freedom. In a dictatorship you play a daily game called "How-not-to-get-Disappeared-Quest". If you play it right, you get to live and breathe and sometimes prosper a bit. Mostly depending on how far collapsed the economy is. To stand up to dictators means putting a lot on the line. Generally more than people are willing to commit. When protests gain momentum and the dictators cannot get everyone in line, then the relative potential price of revolt lessens and people will be more committed. People know... but can they show they know?
Putin's Demise from Power
Remaining silent in the face of oppression is worse than dying in silence. Freedom is such a precious thing. Don't just talk about it. Raise your voice and sing. Faith
Right on! Anderson! Keep up the great work!
I wish there was a picture of the old lady he mentioned

You know whoever in Russia monitors western media, whenever they see this, is going to really hope their boss never sees it.
I've wondered about the impact of the truth on those who are afraid of it. Are the propagandists so convinced of their own lies that they are impervious to other opinions or are they out here spreading their propaganda while not believing a word of it? What must that do to someone's soul?
@@paulmasters2980 maybe it's easier to believe own lies than to live with guilt.
