Kyiv not Kiev. Kiev is how it sounds and is written in Russian, Kyiv - in Ukrainian
@@randomzen924 Exactly
Yep, that is the way to do it. Kyiv
@@randomzen924 so key as in 🗝 and ev as in 'every' ? I got confused with all the different pronunciations on TV.

@@iamoo thank you ! Slava Ukraini !! 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
Best Secretary of state, ever
President Zelensky & his Green Body-shirt, a fashion statement...Spot on, Go Ukraine!
Some guy said, "Doesn't the man (Zelensky) own a suit?" Zelensky is dressed just right for the part he is playing! He cares about his people and the military of his country. He's down on the ground with his army and his people. He's not playing a role, he's being who he is, the man is a hero. He's down on the ground, leading from the front, not hiding in some big boat, not hiding in some huge mansion. Love the man!
"I need ammunition, not a ride."
-Vladimir Zelenskyy, That's Winston Churchill level
Yes indeed. One for the history books.
Yes exactly as Criminal as Churchill. He killed 20 million Indians this guy killed atleast 14k
There's finally a U.S. ambassador to Ukraine! USA Today: The Senate confirmed Bridget Brink as the U.S. ambassador to Ukraine on Wednesday
Great news indeed.
Lol- and he has a great sense of humor! I'm loving Sec. Blinken !
I was worried Russia was ganna roll over Ukraine. The fact they are pushing them back is incredible. Good luck guys!
The first week or so, second thing in the morning, after brushing teeth, was to check the news if Kyiv is still holding on. I've talked with several people about this and realized, that this worry and fear (I am from Lithuania, we might not be next target for russian orks, but maybe next ones, after probably Moldova) was not just mine...
While it's a testament to the spirit of the Ukrainians, it's also a statement as to the state of Russia that they can't defeat an opponent they so vastly outnumber.
Dude you must be joking, Ukraine is not winning this war, everyday the Russians take more and more territory in donbas.
.......... From the very beginning, U.S. Democrats designed THE DESTRUCTION OF UKRAINE.

I agree with the fashion statement, Zelensky carries himself pretty well in that green tee!
There couldn't be a better person serving as the US Secretary of State than Anthony Blinken. He is as genuine as Zelensky.

@@renjiecai7869 You laugh VERRRY easily, amigo!
Good show requires intelligence, so does good humor, even ... politics. Both of these guys seam to have it. If only most of the politicians - everywhere, demonstrated some levels of it ...
Stephen Colbert is a democratic mouthpiece
Funny how he's on his way to visit China, plane's call sign is JADE99 just off Okinawa now.
Criminal who sabotaged the Nord stream pipeline he literally has confessed it was him by saying this is a tremendous opportunity for Europe to cut down on fuel the US needs to be held accountable for this.
To show support for Ukraine, the spelling has changed from the Russian version “Kiev” to the Ukrainian version of “Kyiv”. Please change that and show your support.
I wish they would do this everywhere.
It really does take a comedian to show us how serious things are.
And it is important to keep this world changing tragic invasion in the news. Many Americans have short attention spans concerning global events, and waste too much time on the seemingly never ending Depp-Heard Circus, which should only rate one or two nights of the news cycle, if any at all.
Yeeep, Russel Howard does that aaall the time. He is an absolute LEGEND here in the UK.
What a refreshing change to have competent people in our government again
Sec. Blinken said it right: a real leader stays and leads the people in times of struggle. Did you hear that Ted Cruz?
Or reteat to the white house bunker when a disenfranchised group of Americans show up near the white house like a recent, orange blob did. Some 'leader'
The Ukrainians got a better deal with their TV actor than we did with Trump.
You can bet on that!
These GOP leaders needs to take a cognitive test and not take the blame on Biden
Many would have problems with the second word (woman). They don't seem to know what it is these days
BRAVO
Kyiv, not Kiev
There are 3 videos with Blinken on May 19 and Colbert asked some fabulous questions.... and Bliken proved he has a great sense of humor. I hope we have have him back in a few days ....WHEN THE WAR IS OVER AND RUSSIA HAS GONE HOME.
My favorite part about Stephen is his authenticity of self.
It sure is nice to have a serious state department again and have a significantly better relationship with our NATO alliance countries.
Yup. Big sigh of relief from Britain. We really missed you the last few tears.
Who knew that a capable smart man could also be remarkably funny.
TOP!
I want to hear the rest of the story about Mr Blinken's visit with Zelensky. It sounded like it was leading to something interesting.

I was watching and I remember him saying how Zelensky has made green t-shirts cool

0:22 listening to some French news analysts talking about Zelinsky the other day it almost sounded like some Russian propaganda or kissing up to Russia the way they made it out to sound like Zelinsky is all about the camera angle and his inage and workibg the screen. A couple eventually chimed in, after like 10 minutes of this kissing up to the Russian slant that actually Zelensky shows true mettle and grit and stayed when his city was being bombed. That he is the voice of democracy and freedom and has earned his people's and the world's admiration and trust. But not without first sucking up to Russia, and saying Zelwnsky is a good tv man.
About the embassy in Kyiv/Kiev reopening and being safe all of a sudden, how can you be so sure? Or is the American embassy's return a signal to Russia that "you mess with us or shoot down our embassy, you'll feel the fall-out"? Just wondering because they literally just took Mariupol, so it seems like Russian advances are working, and they are shellibg Odessa. So why all of a sudden is Kyiv/Kiev so safe?
Also what is there to recapture, after Russia is through with it? They seem ghost towns of rubble and despair. Like Russia's lesson to Ukraine to not go trying to buddy up with the west. And that they can suddenly redefine what it is to be a war criminal/a nazi etc. They are the ones invading, bombing territory that is nit theirs. They are the clear aggressors.
I'm really tired of hearing France talk about how to leave the door open for Russia to become European again. Russia takes advantage over any weakness.
Also, reading Anne Frank for my daughter last night we got talking about how Germany was defested twice in both wars but didn't learn from the first world war. So when America says it wants to weaken Russia's ability to wage wars like this against their neighbors, it reminds me of WWI. And France shouldn't twist that to sound like America wants to weaken Russia and it's just some proxy wsr between the US and Russia. France is also a part of the war and they are filming their war analysts and debates and whatever. They take afvantage of freedom of speech and press etc. They should also try and stop playing bith sides.
If I had been Zelensky I probably would have tried to flee or save my own skin. I think he has proven himself to be a true war hero among the likes of Churchill. And not justcto be some film star or man of the moment but to help motivate his country to defend itself and stand up for its own borders its own cities. I'm not sure I'd have been so gutsy under the same fire. But the way the French put it, you'd think it was some promo shoot.
Meanwhile rigt wing extremists in America spread the Russian propaganda as well that the ones defending Mariupol were nazis. It's just nuts. It is a wsr in truth and our own observations. It is a gaslighting. Telling pregnant women who were bombed in their mstrrnity wards thatvthey had staged her own pregnancy or the photos or that they didn't know whether it was Ukraine bombing itself. I mean it is just nuts nuts nuts. We can believe our own eyes, too. And journalists do have a form of integrity we can trust as well. Right? Or should we all fsll for Russia's interpretation that Zelensky is some ouppet of the west? I think Zelensky teaches the west more about its values and its integrity than the other way around.
Actually, like so many things in Europe, you have to look back further in time, to understand them. The reason that France made Germany pay such a heavy price, for their losses in WWI, was Germany had made France pay an overly onerous price for the Napoleonic Wars. As to French television kissing up to Putin, when has France ever met a dictator they did not want to appease?
as a ukrainian who spent some time living in france, i'm so mad at how their government is still holding on to their ties to russia. they even supplied them with weapons, or at least military-grade units, as recently as this past february. the hypocrisy is unbelievable. same for germany and their attachment to russian gas.
I gather it's not that Kyiv is so safe, it's more that it is no longer at risk of being taken over in the next few days.
It is reported that the Russian troops which were near it have retreated and been shifted to reinforce the thinned numbers on the south-east front and facing partisans behind that front, so the Ukranian troops reached the northern and north-eastern border. Shelling is still a risk, but Kyiv is not a high priority - particularly as the Russians seem to have been reduced to their older, less-accurate missiles and the flight path for guided weapons aircraft is longer and more risky.
Destroying Odessa and preventing Ukrainian grain shipments are high priority: famine may get other countries to drop sanctions in exchange for Russia letting the grain out.
I listen to French news on a daily basis. I have not heard anything supportive of Russia in the slightest. I wonder if you might have been listening to a far right propaganda outlet masquerading as a news source, like the American Fox propaganda network. I must admit though that I listen to their International news outlet as it is far more in depth than the BBC. I would not be surprised to hear that France had a far right equivalent to Fox. After all Marine Le Pen was, for the first time, the second choice for President of France last month. Very frightening.
Clearly working towards the next Emmy. Great interview!
What a thrill to have a leader *represent* you the way Zelensky represents Ukrainians!
*snappy salute*

Stephen please correct #KyivNotKiev
Kyiv
It's really a positive to have a guest that is knowledgeable on your program. Especially one that isn't giving what he has to say marketability. Good show.
Ukrainians have a long history of bravery and resilience, President Zelenskiy is not different. What made the difference was his position and to lead as such - It truly made the difference.
The American Flag!👍
Stephen Colbert, it's "Kyiv"
Kyiv!
The correction jackal in me wants to say the title of this video should have Kyiv and not Kiev in the title. :)
Yes, he could have gotten out of town...like Ted Cruz did when it got chilly in Texas
Blinken 2024. 🇺🇸
President Zelenskyj is an amazing leader. Smart, brave, cares about his people and knows how to communicate with the world. He's truly an ispiration to the whole World, there's not been many leaders like that in our lifetime. I hope he survives this war that will hopefully not last long anymore and that he gets reelected to oversee the reconstruction of Ukraine and its inclusion into EU.
Slava Ukraini!
You are so misinformed! Zelensky is not a good guy.
Ukraine has been the " Deep States" playground for years. It's one of the countries we launder money through. Sell drugs, guns and use for child trafficking. OH! And we have sent millions of dollars for their bio-weapon labs to be set up.
Russia invaded Ukraine to take out the labs and Nazis running the country.
Because of our current administration, we aren't doing much better here.
WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE FOR YOU TO WAKE THE HELL UP?
We have 60% of our country right now that there is NO baby formula. Inflation is at 11%, gas is $5.00 + a gallon and continuing to rise, many grocery items have doubled, some states have NO diesel fuel, several food plants have been burned down, farmer's haven't been able to plant full crops, China has bought much of our farm land and it will not be used. There will be a food shortage!!
STOP WATCHING THE MAINSTREAM GLOBALIST CONTROLLED PROPAGANDA MEDIA.
We must all hope so and make sure we INCREASE the amount of aid being sent to Ukraine to make this happen. And once the war is over, we must look at architects, volunteers and supplies going to Ukraine from all over the free world to help in the reconstruction to truly make the country truly welcome as a part of the rest of Europe even more than it was before.
I think you mean NATO. Ukraine's inclusion in the _EU_ will be helpful, but what will _really_ drive Russia out of Ukraine is their acceptance into _NATO._
@@lazyperfectionist1 one of the rules for applying to NATO is that country can't be in active war... EU would allow Ukraine to get better faster economically (out of pure selfishness I'd love that to happen quickly, as dealing with customs is a nightmare)
@@Maria-dj6lm NATO! NATO! Not the EU!
This guy is the right man at the right time. All that remains is for he & his pals, Winken & Nod to sail to Brussels in a wooden shoe! 😉 Slava Ukraini!
How has anybody not made an A.Blinken (Abe Lincoln) joke yet?? It's right there just waiting.
yes they have… for about the past year.
Watch the third segment.
Hundreds of people have. You just don't scroll.
Let's all remember......Mike Pompeo used to have this job. What a contrast between styles.

What Zelensky demonstrates is that comedians are braver than politicians.
Of course they are. It takes guts to get up on stage when you feel depressed and make people laugh in the face of a crisis after another. I've said this before, I think comedians are heroes just like nurses, firemen, caregivers, community workers. They serve the nation and today they serve the world. Comedians will always have my back.

As a German, I'm again bewildered by the American obsession with their flag 😅. If our foreign minister told such a story on the German embassy and flag, people would probably just laugh about it and think "eh, great that the embassy is open again, but who cares about that flag?".

For Americans- the flag is important and useful. Wrapping oneself in it cures all afflictions, rights all wrongs and grants absolutions for all committed sins. It is very convenient.

Blinken 2024!!! I'd vote for him. Lloyd Austin for VP. Think it is a ticket that might win.
I don't think that's gonna happen. But Blinken is a top notch diplomat and Austin as well has lots of experience.
I love zelensky, down to earth , he’s not shy to begging for everything he needs to save his country.
He represents a new generation, unlike almost all of these old politicians worldwide. And in a good, sustainable way. Truly a man of the people.
Nothing but respect for Zelinski! trumpy would've turned tail and run like a coward that he is!
You said it, Mr. Martion!
It is refreshing to watch and listen a professional and a diplomat. Secretary Blinken is light years above the bloated fascist and sycophant Pompeo we had during TFG's administration.
Y’all spelled “Kyiv” the Russian way. 🫤
Yeah, we're still using old maps, sorry ☹️ In the future it'll forever be known as Kyiv - capital of Free Ukraine !
If it was known that Russia was coming in, EVERY free country should have sent military support to build such an formidable wall around Ukraine that it would have been suicidal for Russia to attempt to penetrate it. And with so many countries involved, the NATO threat excuse would be muted.
And what about Afganistan?
