Nah bro, Ukraine is just advancing to Kiev and Russia is retreating to Avdiivka XD
Not sure what war (smo) you are watching?? Their is no stalemate in Uker. Russia is winning.🤷♂
This channel is basically MSM except when it comes to Israel/Palestine issue.
Such a victory is called a pyrrhic victory. Hundreds of thousands of dead soldiers, the ruined reputation and contempt of the entire civilized world, an international arrest warrant for a president who is afraid to travel from the country, a new iron curtain with Europe, the enmity of the majority of Ukrainians for several generations to come, the rise of a totalitarian fascist state and thousands of political prisoners, hundreds of thousands young and educated people fleeing the country, the cost of a war in the hundreds of billions of dollars, if not trillions of dollars, all for the control of a few destroyed towns and villages in southeastern Ukraine. This doesn't look like a victory for Russia, but rather a disaster.
Yeah.. winning their "10 day's Special Military Operation -3 days in Kyiv" from last 2 years ✌️😆🤣

I am very surprised at Al Jazeera's one-sided and sometimes propaganda reporting on this conflict throughout. Sometimes it's like listening to BBC or CNN? I'm also curious as to why RT is banned in the West and Al Jazeera isn't? It just doesn't make sense. The depressing and shocking coverage of Gaza by Al Jazeera has exposed the world to the reality of the situation, and in doing so has greatly enhanced its viewership! They could easily limit its availability. Something is afoot... anyone agree?
Agreed. Al Jazeera is horribly biased, has sided with Russia many times and so has its viewers.
It’s pretty ironic given that they fiercely support Palestine during the Israel/Gaza war while Ukraine is fighting for similar values. Geee I wonder why?
Al Jazeera is just like CNN with the exception of what goes on in Gaza
There are simply too many people watching in the west. Banning the channel would cause a huge uproar, and once put under scrutiny it would be incredibly hard to defend a ban with a consistent policy considering how western mainstream media operates. AJ basically use the guidebook of CNN or BBC, if one should be banned they all should.
I'm pretty sure Qatar has good relations with Russia , but Al-Jazeera will self censor to avoid the fate of Russia Today , remember , the Liberal Democrats like Palestine but not Russia . The right likes Russia but usually hates Palestine . Al-Jazeera aims at Liberal Democrats who are secular , they support migrants , anti-racist , more Socialist vs. Capitalist .
why are you surprised?? The US owns the media - especially if it's done in English.
People who think that Ukraine is winning are living in denial. They seek comfort in subjective reality and ignore all the facts
Funny how every pro-russian comment is the same, its almost as if ....🤔🤔🤔
@@cumpanions8105 Bro its over. Its not pro Russia nonsense. I'm no fan of Russia or this invasion but it is what it is. After Avdiivka fell, its been one town after another. The front has collapsed.

Well 2014 was not a full scale of conflict, not until 2022 when the Operation has started officially.

Who started the war exactly?
@@robfl100 NATO expansion despite promising not to. That's what caused the war.
@@wpboddy9165 They never promised not to expand NATO, and countries can agree to join NATO if they want to. NATO is a defensive alliance so Russia has nothing to fear; Russians are just paranoid.
@@wpboddy9165oh no, I can already hear NAFO screaming and running towards you (they still need to finish school homework, so just wait)
It's only a stalemate in terms of position gained. Eventually the able recruits will die off and Ukraine will be left with senior citizens on the frontlines. You can resupply ammo but you can't buy back lives. The lady asks what is the alternative?
The alternative is to negotiate so 2 years later Ukraine isn't a charred battlefield with only women and children picking up the pieces.

Oh yeah, that small town with a prewar population of around 33k people that Russia has been failing up until now to capture? Wow, such gains 🤣
lessons learned from ukraine.
1. american weapons are still better than russias.
2. russian weapons are not obselete with new equipment being modern and adaptive to the battlefield against nato.
3. american weapons are expensive to make and private companies fuel billions to keep beurocracy more corrupt just like medicine and technology .
4. russian factories are state owned and will produce the needs for ammunition vehicles at the fraction of the cost on the best interest of the Russian Federation.
5. West aide is dwindling because from the withdrawal of afghanistan, usa did not withdraw afghanistan for "peace" and "afghan autonomy" but because the US government told private war companies that the money laundering scheme / oligarch party is apperently over because the US economy is at a fragile state.
6. russia's decisive win over ukraine will spark the new beginning of the multipolar world order combined with the issues of multicultural issues occuring in Europe and the USA, social domestic issues and economic dependence from others.
7. President Putin's gem of ukraine will make the next leader after Putin to be more nationalistic and have a seat at the table
There you have it
P.S : in the upcoming years, it is still curious to know if these private war companies whom tanks , helicopters, vehicles carrying the US flag will move offshores "venture" expditions just like our american textiles and fabrics.
This video release a little late.. there are big gains by russia and there is a uprise in ukraine because of martal law mobilization

Peace to Ukraine!
It is stupid to call that a stalemate.....Russia has been reconstructing the new territories and carrying out an attrition of the Ukraine's military, meanwhile Ukraine's indebtedness has been rising significantly.
11:31 Please make a video on how Brexit has turned out!
She asked at the end, what the alternative is? It is peace. Similar to what was before antagonization of the biggest neighbour. Peace will come at the end.
Yeah, but Russia needs to stop antagonizing its neighbours and cut its losses for peace to happen. That's a tall order with Putin at the helm.
11:35
Can we get a video explaining the DRC war and the different groups involved.
What does winning looks like? It wasn’t a matter of if, but when. Is not about the unthinkable, is a matter of the inevitable. Is all that spending worth it that doesn’t comes from them worth it? This could have ended a long time ago.
Winning looks like a big number on the banks acount because all wars are bankers wars
one normal comment, its a shame...
The thing is that, russia isn’t even playing with full Strength. They are going easy on Ukraine otherwise Ukraine would have wiped out a long ago. Russia mission is to change the mindset of Ukraine, and show them true history of these land.
_Russia mission is to change the mindset_ - Well, they certainly achieved that goal. Before the war at least some Ukrainians were supporting Russia, now 99% of Ukrainians are against it and Russia is universally hated.
Yes, it was Russia's plan all along to be in a multi-year war that has cost them billions of dollars and tens of thousands of Russian lives. Putin the grand strategist!
Well, tell us what do you know about their history ? Cuz you seem to be a blockhead :D
You can say the same for NATO , NATO play easy on Russia … so “teaching Ukrainians history” is worth the hundreds of thousands of people that die on both side ? That’s ridiculous… Russia have the biggest country in the world , it could be thriving if it focus its energy on the people and the country instead of endangering the lives of millions
Russia is now literally reliant on North Korea and Iran for missiles.
Thank you
Excellent update on Ukranian situation. Keep it up. Thanks.
The civilian casualty ratio in Gaza is hundreds of times higher than for the conflict in Ukraine. Russia is trying to minimize civilian casualties.

Yes it is a 'trench war', but in a stalled trench war, you measure proportionality through shells fired. Russia fires often 10x the shells a day Ukraine does. That is not a stalemate.

Why didn't Russia attempt to entice Ukraine to join them? There are countries trying to join the European Commonwealth. There was a period when territories tried to join the USA. Both Russia and China could learn from the ideas underlying the European Commonwealth in my opinion.

Rule of thumb for making a war : make a war depend on you own country's power, rather than depending on foreign countries' military aid. If you country's own power is not enough for making a war, then just don't do it.
And who started the war???
