- “Russia is really feeling that the war isn’t going as they see fit and Putin wants to do everything to make sure he prevails.”
Putin’s “bravado” is all “bluff and bluster” as Russia is “really concerned” with how the war with Ukraine is going, says former British Army colonel Hamish de Bretton-Gordon.

You don't start a nuclear war after losing half of your defense systems

Smart quote
Actually that’s exactly when you do. There is no defence and no winner in a nuclear war. In the words of Sting, “I hope the ruSSians love their children, too.”
@@morstyrannis1951 that's why they said its for defense only if NATO attack . it would reach same outcome if they use it or not so why not go for MAD than destroy themselves alone .

Ukraine is on life support.
It's only a 'special military operation' , according to Pootin, so not a war. Therefore Ukraine isn't bound by the rules and they should proceed on that basis. Pootin doesn't believe in declaring war because he'd be held accountable if he did declare war on Ukraine.
"Pootin" is the type of language that a nine year-old would use.

@@ianjackson8371this is your criticism?. Petty, dude. Very petty.
It's funny, because if you read the Reuters reporting on Putin begging for a ceasefire, you'll see that the SMO euphemism has dropped. Peskov called it a war. Putin did in an address. And more.
This has been going on for a while, but it's funny to see the veil be cast off fully with no acknowledgement.
Slava Ukraini. They want a ceasefire, they are weak.
@@ianjackson8371 pootin deserves ZERO respect.
Yes, there is no subject that's more critical in politics than Ukraine right now. Other things are important, too, but are academic if war were to break out.
a war has already broke out, in case you didn't notice
Russia losing Voronezh DM radars which are the early warning system for ballistic missile attack. To lose even one of these systems renders them blind in the sector it monitors, and could theoretically leave it blind to a nuclear first strike.
Good
This system is used to trace missiles back to the launch site, this is why Ukraine hit it.
As the previous person said, this makes the crews operating ATCMS vulnerable. My suggestion would be a strategic move for Ukraine. It would allow further attacks to be made into Russia in the future... But the most sensible reason is - the Ukrainians havevbeen trageting air assets over this last week and a half, paving the way for the F16s they are about to start using. A new batch of pilots have just passed training, and those jets will be in the air in the next few weeks. The aid package from the states, along with all the new funding from the west is going to enable to push the Russians right back to the border in most places. I expect the Kerch is high on the agenda, as well as pusing the Russians out of Crimea and securing their southern border.
Isn't it pathetic that those radars had no defense against conventional drones or missiles, whichever were used by Ukraine to take the Russian radars out.
@@TheLondonForever00 F-16s, any day now,, 😆😅🤣

Things are indeed very disturbingly precarious right now for sure, with several potential hot zones around the globe, but capitulating to tyrants will only increase the likelihood of a major East-West conflict down the road. History records that pandering to fascist headbangers just encourages them further.
Under no political definition Putin is a fascist, call him an authoritarian leader or evil but fascism is an entirely different proposition.
Dump Von Shitzenpants in 2024 to prevent the expansion autocrats and tyranny.
Tyrans are the US and UK deepstates while their citizens believe they live in democracies. Obviously you haven't travelled that much to those countries were western media is allowed (not terrorist media though) while in US/UK ALL RUSSIAN MEDIA IS BANNED... And you think you live in a democracy :(
@Stop-propaganda The Ukrainian people's' determination to prevent a murderous, megalomaniacal tyrant Putin and his hench thugs from stealing their country is nationalism, nothing to do with the far-right. Stop repeating the horse dung being generated by the current Kremlin. Quit licking Putin's feet like a lovesick poodle, comrade. He's a loser. He's doomed. Get real.

I’m not driving around in a Lada no way… NATO for me..
😄I had 2 Ladas in the 80's
A peaceful, respectful Russia will see no foreign military flooding across their border. They need better ways to secure their nation.
As someone who grew up with MAD pounded into my head in school, it really is strange to see this conventional warfare mindset occupy the brains of Russia, and it's also concerning as it is shifting the framework away from "nukes is a safety guarantor." Or at least it's shifting that perspective for them.
I mean, are they afraid that MAD will become obsolete eventually with technological advances? I imagine it's possible, but it's also equally possible that any nation can conceivably keep up with counteracting MAD counters.
With the possible exception of a Chinese invasion into Russia.
@@NikosZaidGomez I can only offer a crazy idea. I've heard that something called a "neutrino beam" can render a nuke inert. Maybe it has been perfected?
@@NikosZaidGomez then you are really unknowledgeable .. even if u intercept all nukes and avoid destruction of properties its radiation fallout would still fall on the country it was intercepted and I guess it would be near or inside US or NATO airspace since no existing tech can intercept a missiles instantly after they launch .

I respect British military leaders. They see russia for what it really is. A country run by gangster with dangerous weapons. American people are clueless about the situation in Ukraine asfar as the danger a loss would mean to the citizens.
I am an American, and I can tell you that I realize very clearly the risk to all of us if Ukraine does not win.
If Ukraine does not win, both the US and the West will wind up fighting Russia later, guaranteed.
Putin will not stop with Ukraine.
It's far closer to their home. There are also many in US Congress who seem quite sympathetic and on the take with Putin. I don't know if that's the case in Britain.
The correct term for a regime, such as contemporary Imperial Russia, is 'thugocracy'.

As a Brit, I can tell u the people are divided on the Ukraine issue and as for the talked about national service, from most comments I have read nobody wants to send their kids to fight for a govenment that doesn't care about them let alone fight in Ukraine.

Lots of rhetoric about the latest Military hardware to be sent ( late) people forget you require people who are trained and well versed into using it in an operational environment. There isn't at present a simple solution.
Bluff and bluster, R U kidding. Dangerous talk.
Don't we know we can defeat Russia in days if not hours, if we think that why wouldn't the Orcs know or think that as well? No one is going to convince anyone that Nato, has any issue in defeating the second-best Military in Ukraine!
Because they've been lied to.
And Nato probably wouldnt loose a single troop with russia WW2 mindset and tactics!
Meat-waves only work if the objective runs out of ammo first.
People do not understand war. US probably would prevail against Russia, but the Russian people have an incredible ability to suffer hard times. Any war would not be fast, but certainly would be costly in terms of casualties and money.
@@user-ze7vb5cx3y I think the Russian population has been lied to big time. Shouldnt they have beaten puny Ukraine years ago ?
It’s all about how the US and Nato get out of this mess now
More likely they'll be getting in.
I like what Putin said today "I might be short and I might be hung like a minnow but at least you cannot call me smart". "Now lets talk peace and I win".
Not good to have camera pointing up towards the Times reporter, it smacks of condescension, which is not a good look. Hamish's camera set up is perfect. The audio on this was good though.
If Ukraine was not shackled, this war would have been over by now. Be strong Ukraine. Be strong.❤🇺🇦🇦🇺
Come on, Russia can mobilize several million soldiers if needed, do you want NATO to send troops?
@@RicardoMartinez-oh9sq Soldiers ? you cannot make people who dont want to be there into soldiers in a few months.
Ukraine + USA - no limits
Slava Ukraine!
Stop saying that you idiots
Why should be times different to 50 years ago?
Really thinking treaty's more worth today?
putin , its nearing time we the sane people of the world, take the kid gloves OFF
Ukraine 🇺🇦 ❤🙏🙏🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
👌💖💯👍UA💙💛✌💯
The whole debate is funny and pointless. Just imagine either Russia or China being crazy enough to challenge the US in space.
The US _cancelled_ Star Wars program before they had any _real_ competition in Earth's orbit, but like any old program, with a little bit of work can be brought back to life.
while we hope that, the facts today re US mil capabilities are literally classified.
Where do live , under a rock.
The Russian bots are very quiet lately!
Only DNC bots ruling
They are now using semi literate bots from 3rd world countries. They are cheaper.

“You can be friends with Russia - it is generous, you can cooperate with Russia - it is honest, you can ask from Russia - it is generous, Russia can be deceived - it is gullible. But you can’t fight with Russia-she’s invincible!” (A.V. Suvorov)
The only question is how can Ukraine make Russia want to stop their war.
By letting them spend some more years at a less than optimal developmental pace. Some oligarchs will have enough, or the pensioners.
@@stream2watch what? Are you nuts? This is propaganda
@@NoelPrendergast "hurr durr" Gee, with such a convincing counter-claim, I guess I will have to agree with... something something.
@@stream2watch what are you talking about?
@@NoelPrendergast Precisely. That is what I am asking. Make a point.
Not sure where your getting your information from. But maybe you should look for more reliable source.
Nice grammar, "Jim"
You are obviously the fountain of all knowledge, an expert of experts.
Russian army spokesman Lootenant General Kuckooshenkov is a very reliable source
It’s nato involvement not Ukraine that’s fuelling this
