      He's actually gotten to the root of the problem. Ultimately its domestic politics that people care about. You can scare people for a time by fabricating an external enemy like Ukranian Nazis or Nato. Eventually however people will get tired of being scared of NATO and they'll be more concerned with why there is no hot water in their house and that their pension isn't enough to live on.

      Yes, there are reasonable and decent human beings in Russia, however there's numerous problems:
      1. They are a minority...as smart people always are in every country.
      2. The majority is uneducated and full of frustration = easy pray for propaganda = brain washed
      3. All of them have been "apoliticized" for all of their lives. Those who'd like to change things, are too afraid or demoralized already.
      So as much as I hope that these folks will make a change when it's needed most, I'm pretty sure they will just apathetically watch everything go to sh*t.

    Being from Russia and having relatives on both sides of the conflict is, really hard. Sadly, I have relatives that are Azov and multiple in Russian Army. I live in the States now and am upset that both my brother and sister are dead because of this conflict. I really hope people realize Russians are not bad people neither, are Ukrainians. Maybe, different ideology and views but we are all people. Ukraine has been separate from Russia for thirty year and earned their independence. This Operation has killed many good people on both sides. This Operation became personal when my sister and brother died. Forgive me for my English, but I hope people understand I have no ill feeling towards anyone. Enough blood has been spilled on our soils. If old men running the country and world would fight their own wars there wouldn't be any.

I have read that both Finland and Sweden are providing humanitarian aid and weapons to Ukraine, but I don't know how much, and I don't know how far they would go, if the conflict in Ukraine escalates. It's also an intriguing idea to consider if Finland and/or Sweden would engage directly to defend a NATO country before they actually join NATO. It remains to be seen (but actually I hope never to find out), if NATO or CSTO would really react in unity if under attack by a serious opponent.

    I’m a Finn and have some Russian friends. Our relationship hasn’t changed. As we could see in this interview, there are some stupid ones, some afraid ones and some very understanding ones. As in all countries. The problem is never the people. It’s always bad leadership.
    The Russian people has been misled and frankly lied to in decades. If you live in a country that feed you this propaganda year after year, it’s obvious it will affect your believes. Those fortunate to have internet and a possibility to search different news from around the world will know better.
    That’s a reminder to all of us. Never trust your own countries news as the absolute truth. That goes for me too.

Now of course, I can’t guarantee you what this guy considers “necessary” to be reasonable, but also you can’t tell anyone that what he considers necessary is inadequate and would result in reason-less military action.
      There are always two options in a dispute, compromise or takeover. One is done by talking and negotiating, the other is done by killing and controlling. When two stubborn parties collide, the violent way is bound to rule. So I’d say you’re right about ignorance, greed and lack of empathy being the cause of most violent action, but claiming it to be intolerable is very idealistic to say the least.

    Deep down they regard it as an occupational forces. A foreign entity, a terrorist group that has forcefully taken the power and holds the entire country hostage.
    Even those who go out of their way to support every initiative of the government - I feel that they want to serve, to be useful to the power that can crush them in one go.
    When you're taken hostage, you do everything that the terrorist says, just to stay alive. When your country is under the foreign rule, you cooperate with the occupants, just to save yourself and your family.

They can rally a mob and burn a man for thinking to much or loot some Palace of the maniacs of its gold and gems.. But they cannot organise and soon fall back to drinking in their filthy huts.. And then there is the oppressed masses who inside yearn for civility but with such companions they cannot quite touch it... The genius Russians never can have power.. Because they are ernest in their persutes of science or art or such.. So it's left to the fools and the maniacs... Or genius maniacs... Even worse.. Or maniac fools.. Also dastardly.. And the apathetic ones.. They can NEVER have power. A strong maniac would just strike them down "SILENCE SHEEP!" such is Russians lot...

    1420 is an excellent channel. Speaking as an old guy, well, 30+ years after the fall of the Berlin Wall / Iron Curtain and the USSR and until two months ago:
    - Former Soviet block countries (mostly) and Russia elected democratic governments
    - Former Soviet block countries (mostly) and Russia enjoy freedoms of press, assembly, speech
    - Former Soviet clock countries (mostly) and Russia enjoy vastly improved economic conditions from Soviet days
    - NATO did not threaten Russia one inch
    Now, thanks to their leader and his small ring of sycophants:
    - Worst death to civilians and young soldiers since WWII / Stalin
    - Russian citizens often now give guarded answers for fear of imprisonment
    - Russian free press is eliminated
    - Russia faces unprecedented sanctions from nearly every country
    - Russia has lost most customers for its products
    - NATO has expanded based on fear of further Russian invasions of free countries

      And on the other hand, with an open and free system and scrupulous rule of law, Russia would invade Europe…by purchasing it with the immense riches they would soon have. Russia is poised to be an wild success, wealthier than Germany maybe, but is held back by its system of government. I worry that they (generally) are born to be ruled, preferring to live under a strict 'dad' instead of being adults.

      You have to realize that this youtube channel is still atleast partially bound by the Russian governments interests, even if its allowed to exist without restrictions it is still in Russias best interest to make these videos as positive towards the general Russian peoples as possible.
      And therefore its also important for the creators of this channel to maintain that perspective, regardless of the interviews being genuine or not.
