Western Powers Cut Russia Off From SWIFT | Putin Is Sounding A Lot Like T****
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 май 2024
- The world is so united in opposing Russia's invasion of Ukraine that even famously-neutral Switzerland joined the effort to block access to crucial financial systems like SWIFT, and the whiny response from Vladimir Putin sounds a lot like something America's former president would say. #Colbert #Monologue #Ukraine

When the Swiss feel the need to pick a side, y'all know you F'd up.
If Switzerland suddenly declares war on Russia, oh Putin, ya done goofed up.
Anyway Putin, you’re gonna stand down right? Admit it you bit off more than you can chew. Nike Swoosh, JUST DO IT.
Forget Switzerland, even FIFA have acted…. How far do you have to go for FIFA to respond?????
@@simonfew6509 that’s even more crazy. Funny because Qatar slaves built the stadium that will host the World Cup, but let’s not get into it. And if Russia is out who takes the spot? I will laugh if it’s Greenland.
@@chazztreat8317
Exactly!!!!! FIFA are happy to turn their back on corruption and modern slavery, but think Russia have gone to far….
You have to question your moral position when even FIFA are on the other side
Funny line. But weren't the Swiss the Nazi's bankers?
I'm Swiss and I just want to say that our goverment first didn't want to do anything but faced enorm backlash from the people. Also it's the least amount of things they could do without passively taking russia's side.
Yup. And, that we're still being viewed as 'neutral' is funny but not funny.
I’m loving that it’s the people who are speaking up against Putin’s illegal horror. 🇨🇭🏴🇺🇸🇺🇦
Bravo, ty!
People all over the world are getting Tired of Rich jackoffs writing checks that our poor butts have to pay with our blood and children's futures.
Money talks.
These sanctions is kind of incredible when you think about it. Putin's sole reason for invading Ukraine was because he was upset about and afraid of the consequences of increased integration with the west.
So, literally, the west said "Fine. Here's what _not_ integrating feels like."
You know you’re evil when Switzerland breaks its neutrality.
Feel bad for the people. Civilians always pay for the greed of one person.
But they are the only ones who have a reasonable chance to free the world from Putin.
are you american?
@@FriedrichHerschel not really. they get imprisoned for protesting. we are truly punishing the civilians in hopes that there's a palace coup on the bet that the civilians don't actually get pissed at the world for destroying their life savings
Leave The People out of this.
@@MrPhotodoc Sadly, the people are collateral here. The cutoff keeps Russia from being able to gain funding for their military operations.
Here in Switzerland, the Federal Council was basically bombarded by citizens telling them to impose sanctions, since they’re disgusted by Russia’s actions. This knowing full well that Switzerland makes tons and tons of money off of Russian oligarchs and companies funneling their money through Paradeplatz.
Better late than never - well done, folks.
I am shocked to hear the Swiss Govt took this action. As a result, it will be interesting to see how long Russia can go without the Swiss banks, from what I read it will be a painful death of their economy.
@@HowlingWolf518 and yet the Swiss Bank didn't move a muscle for Palestinians. Yesterday it was us, today its Ukraine, tomorrow till be your nations engulfed by the hate you give.
I'm glad. No offense to the current people living there but Swiss neutrality during WWII and letting the Germans hide their ill gotten gold and art didn't make you look too good morally speaking. Personally I gave them a break because there is nothing to say that Hitler wouldn't have marched into Switzerland and looted it if he didn't get his way, so I don't think it was totally their fault, but like I said it wasn't the best look. This definately makes Switzerland look way more moral.

I can’t imagine what it’s like to be a Russian citizen right now. You’re caught between a dictator and his war on one side but economic disaster brought on by international sanctions on the other.
Hopefully this will be over soon for both Ukraine and Russia.
Being a Russian citizen right now is watching the West going completely off the rails with their mass media hysteria and Russophobia, taking down all principles of law and common sense in an attempt at ostracizing a whole country and its people. Because they want it so bad for the "Russian threat" nonsense to be true. All you know about the Ukrainian crisis is what you've been told second hand, by your media. And you don't actually care about any of it to dig a bit deeper. Don't worry, Russia and the Russians are and will be fine - it's not the first time in history we've been under attack by the West. We can do without new iPhones. It's just so sad to see the whole "civilized" western world turning into ugly gnomes, just like that, in one day. Laughing at common people dealing with sunctions, cancelling people, firing them, excluding them from social and cultural institutes, expelling them from universities, assaulting diplomats, phisically attacking children all over the "civilized" world on the basis of their nationality - Russian. And before you proceed with your trite arguments like "they had it coming" "because Putin is Hitler" - actually read about this conflict first. Preferably past the loud headlines. And yes, hopefully this will be over soon. And so sad this has gone so far, thanks to the US and the EU escalating things.
My prayer too. I've written to my congressfolk, but that's just the beginning.
@@elbrujo9507 You can't realistically be condoning Putin's behaviour? We don't have to look at anything the news is telling us - we just have to compare Putin's words to his actions to see that he's wrong. He keeps talking about liberating Donbas, yet he's trying to reduce Kharkiv to rubble. He spoke of this being a peacekeeping mission, then launched a full-scale invasion. He spoke of defending Ukraine's people, then used a weapon of mass destruction (thermobaric missiles) inside of a city. If Ukraine's people are as oppressed as he says, why are they fighting tooth and nail for their country? They're not helping the Russian troops or greeting them with flowers - if they were, you would have taken the country in 48hrs.
Putin keeps refusing to recognise Ukraine as a sovereign nation, able to make its own decisions. He tries to say who they can and can't have alliances with. He wouldn't take any other country telling Russia what they can and can't do, so why is it OK for them to tell Ukraine what to do? If Russia doesn't want Ukraine to join NATO, stop making them feel like they need security assurances from the West. Stop invading them. Every time you take more and more of their land - what do you expect them to do? Place yourself in Ukraine's shoes.
If this was purely Russia vs Ukraine, then the whole world wouldn't be whipped into a frenzy. This frenzy was caused when Putin threatened other nations unconnected to Ukraine (Finland and Sweden) & prepared to nuke us. He blamed the British foreign secretary for that and, whilst she is an idiot, all she said was that if a NATO country is attacked, other members are contractually bound to protect that country. It's the whole point of NATO, it's no secret. Nobody threatened you. But we are reacting because we don't believe Putin will stop at Ukraine. We think he'll keep invading other countries. He keeps lying to us and threatening us - why would we not suspect him?
Russians are good people. You need a better leader - one who actually cares about you. One who won't sacrifice thousands of your troops and cause you all financial hardship for a vanity project.
I hate to have to say this but Putin isn't a dictator as long as he enjoys the support of 3/4ths of his publics support. He's pursuing evil goals and killing his neighbors, but make no mistake about it, his people CHOOSE him as the leader.
@@elbrujo9507 Putin is an ex head of the KGB. We rest our case.
I’m Brazilian. Our Supreme Coward refuses to condemn the Putin regime and to stand up for the Democratic values that the great majority of Brazilians believe in, cited “Brasil’s dependency on Russian fertilizers”.
It makes me sick to my stomach to be governed by such an evil coward who chooses fertilizers instead of the freedom that Ukraine represents to the entire World right now.
Slava Ukraini!
Bolsanaro is a punk
Fertilizers? Sounds like a bunch of bulls*** to me.
You'll be fine. We only just got rid of our coward within the last year or so. Bolsonaro will follow along shortly.
Brazilian president sides with Russian bullshit? Color me brown - sorry I meant surprised.
It's bolsanaro, I'm not surprised one bit
I hope the citizens of Russia get through this okay. Most of them never even wanted this war to begin with and now they are being forced to pay the price as a result.
Sadly they will be the ones who suffer. Putin will destroy their lives and future for his depraved ambitions.
I hope that the writers will also emphasize this instead of making the audience laugh and clap for images of ordinary people not being able to buy bread or losing all their money.
Most? So there are Russian citizens that want this war?
@@whattheschmidt Please remember how much Russia controls it's media and education.
We had a Russian exchange student come to my school in 2009 and he didn't even know that the US, UK, Australia France etc all fought the Nazi's. Their education teaches them that WW2 was won solely by Russians.
Also many Russian maps still display former Soviet countries as being part of Russia. It's an extremely propagandised country.

@Attack on Titan you repeat that number a lot but there's no evidence for it, even on Russian state tv
@Attack on Titan Bubba Dah, Bu boo Doo? I don't come from your planet. Sorry, I'm from E A R T H, you're not making sense, your signal is weeeak....
@Attack on Titan how? First of all if you look at history it’s not the ukranian president that sounds and behaves like hitler. 2nd NATO is a defensive Alliance. So why would putin be afraid of countries joining NATO if he doesn’t plan to attack them that is….
Russia signed international treaties with ukraine 🇺🇦 to accept their borders and help them defend them in exchange for them deactivating all their nuclear weapons.
Putin annexed sovereign states before and somehow got away with it. Looks like now he crossed a line
When you’re too corrupt for FIFA you know you’re too corrupt
😂
After two teams outright refused to play, international pressure, and finally realizing the entire event was going to be a wash (along with their kickbacks) if they didn't kick out the problem nation's team.
More a stopped clock situation.
That just leaves the IOC at the top of that… pile
They weren't too corrupt for FIFA. It's just that they couldn't find any team willing to play against Russians. Single team football matches tend to be rather boring and not very attractive to the sponsors.
@@tha8baller IOC actually actually acted very fast this time. They had no reason to stall. Next olympics are two years away and for better or worse, this must have been resolved by then.
I think it's really important to note that all frustrations, anger and jokes should be solely directed at Putin and not the citizens of Russia. Unfortunately, all of those sanctions hurt the innocent more than anyone else. Hopefully those sanctions will force the citizens of Russia to channel their anger towards their evil president for destroying their lives.
Very true, but how else would one hurt putin
But then Putin will hurt the protestors by jailing them and maybe worse.
@@orangeziggy348 Only so long as he can pay his forces. Dictators are usually disposed when they can’t provide for their key backers and troops.
That's a very admirable way of seeing it, but sadly it's a tad naive. History has taught us that the surest way to bring a country to its knees is to cripple the supply chains. Stop the flow of industry and commerce, and disrupt the pattern of regular society. It's been thought that action of this type will break the spirit of the population, but we know that doesn't happen in reality, but what does happen is that the country gets broken financially. This has already happened once in that part of the world - America effectively won the Cold War because they eventually broke the USSR financially by outspending them. So it absolutely works.
The other outcome which can happen (and it looks like a distinct possibility this time) is that the population becomes so disgruntled that they rise up against the leaders and overthrow them. The Russian Revolution wasn't that long ago, don't forget. This conflict could be brought to an end if the Russian people decide they've had enough. If that looks like it's on the cards, the Western powers will put the screws on really hard at the high levels, and at the same time western agents will operate at ground level to agitate and aid the Russian populace in secret to accelerate the process.
It doesn't even have to be wartime either - remember the sanctions and bans against South Africa because of apartheid? The people of that country were affected terribly by being cut off from the world, but it eventually broke the country financially and the regime fell, much to the delight of the people who did not agree with the ideology of their own government (after the apartheid regime fell they chose a black man as their President, so that proves it pretty well). South Africa is now a western democracy, so the tactic definitely works.
@@woopimagpie nuclear power changes everything. If Rusia fall they will burn the world because they have nothing to loose. They already said it, and sadly they are not joking. That game of cornering a wild animal is super dangerous and could end up very bad.
I wish the Russian people didn’t have to suffer for the actions of one man, but bottom line I hope it pushes them even harder to rebel against Putin.
Many still see it as just Russia countering NATO presence and expansion in Eastern Europe. They will learn to understand the situation with sanctions.
It might mean a bloody coup, but I do wish they were encouraged to find an effective means to remove Putin. Let him rant off in some isolated castle - or better, put him the same cell with DJT.
@@gs7828 Not really just that many people in neutral countries around the world just learn another example of western hypocrisy. By them cutting swift, it is the beginning of the end for western financial domination.
Not only that the dedollarization initiatives are only just the beginning, by the end USA will not be able to just print money and will probably default on its mountain of debt when the world see the dollar is useless.
@@abcddef2112 The biggest economic axis is the atlantic one, between Europe and the US. The second biggest one is between the West and China. As you can see, Russia is not in the equation and depends much more on trade and resources sent to Europe.

Prayers for the innocent Russian people.
The Russian people are not the enemy. I have known many Russian people who were wonderful people in my time when I was a missionary and lived in Europe. But Putin has gone too far and these sanctions should be enough to motivate the good people of Russia to act and depose him. Hopefully they can do so without getting hurt. But Putin has got to go.
@Attack on Titan oh I see Russian propaganda getting involved. Well you can save your breath. The entire world sees what's really happening. The entire world is shifting and eventually there will be no home on this planet for Putin or his useful idiots. I suggest that you give up your campaign of lies. Nobody is buying it.

@Attack on Titan
No one's buying your bullish, comrade.
OMG! Putin with Trumpy's voice. Oh, wow. That was pure gold. :D
I love watching Ukranians become the heroes in their own story. The underdogs fighting back against the mighty imperialist invaders, and seeing the world's admiration for them. I'm rooting for them, thinking of them, and praying that Zelensky and his countrymen and women will come through this safely and that putin doesn't nuke anybody. At the same time, I feel sad that the brown people of the Middle East and Gulf regions defending their land and people are not seen in the same light by the West when they're forced to fight back against imperialism. It's a terrible, sick double standard we clearly have in the West. Brown people who are the underdogs are not less than or less deserving of our praise and support and we Americans need to realize that it's bad when our country and our allies do imperialism and invasion too.
Ok. I get your point and sympathize. But what country in the Middle East except Yemen had to fight against a foreign power in the last two decades? Against a foreign power with deep cultural ties to most of Europe that have existed for several centuries. With very strong economic ties which have also made Europe partly complicit in tolerating Putin's ongoing aggression. Unlike a lot of of the Middle East Ukraine is also more of a liberal democracy. I don't think the situations are really that comparable.
I am not so sure I was rooting for the Taliban as an underdog against US imperialism. A lot of countries in the Middle East while being victims of historical imperialism also colonize their own ethnic minorities and the most prominent war in Syria is not one of foreign aggression but an internal civil war. And keep in mind that Putin was a major factor in keeping the Assad regime in Syria alive. The West should have hit Russia harder back then but from an International Law stand point Russia's position was a bit better in Syria than it was in Ukraine. Supporting an autocratic regime in a civil war is not the same as invading a foreign, sovereign country.
The case is a bit more complicated than "brown people racism"
I REAAALLLLLY hope Putin sees that final clip because I think we all know what an intolerable idiot Putin thought Trump was, but they really are more similar than he can see.
Calling Trump an intolerable idiot is an insult to intolerable idiots.
Over the years, I have become somewhat jaded due to humanity's indifference towards one another. What is going on with Ukrain is awful but it is nice to see that there is an outpouring of support from people pretty much worldwide.
Clue: once you realize the FABELS we've been fed about how the world works, the APPROPRIATE target for your impulse to change things will come clear: Yourself. Make yourself into the very best expression you can think of, and not that much will confuse you, ever again.

You know you have kicked a financial hornet's nest when abruptly everyone is running to the bank.
O.M.G that bit at the end....classic!!!!😅🤣😂😉😋😎👏🙌👌👍🎉
Love you Stephen Colbert!!!
STAY STRONG 💪 UKRAINE ‼️
THE WORLD 🌍 IS BEHIND YOU ‼️

That wasn't a tangerine dream, it was a nectarine nightmare!
😂😂😂😂
I was told we wouldn't have to hear T**** here anymore.
This is how it's done, stare the terror in the face and make them look as ridiculous as they are, tear them off those pedistools they love to stand on and take their power away by talking about what's really happening.
I tip my imaginary head to you and your writers, we need satire just as much as everything else in times like these, keep shining the light on it like you with the compassionate humor and clarity that probably doesn't just get me through the rough waves of life, sometimes laughing is the only way to get through.
He really lost it and as much as that scares me it might just be the chance to take him down for good and there's so much relief in that if you've been aware of the threat level all along and witnessing the unity and bravery, the kindness, people becoming aware of the values under threat and using their voices and realizing just how much power they hold and seeing open boarders is an amazing message to dictators that they want kill the human desire for freedom and peace as much as they may try.
Just IMAGINE if we had 45 as president rn….I’d literally be scared for my life. All praise to Ukraine, and all praise to all the competent world leaders working to make sure as many people on Earth get to see at least one more day
Putin would be in eastern Germany by now if 45 had been re-elected....
Unless they did him a favour though... /s
He’d probably help Russia take over Ukraine. He was already trying to dismantle NATO and withholding aid money to Ukraine.
tRump would have marched in troops with Russia .. ✌️
@azotyric I wouldn’t have put it past him. Let’s just hope that we have passed the stupidest point in American political history. If we aren’t careful, we’ll have someone like Ron DeSantis (Florida governor who is responsible for 10,000’s of deaths in my home state, because of his TERRIBLY stupid mask and vaccine policies that he hoped would win 45’s favor) be next in line. STOP WAR STOP STUPIDITY. Vote. And if you would, get DeSantis out of my state.
Ok, I almost DIED when Stephen brought old Tangerine Palpatine's voice out of retirement!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
my favourite was the ""super callous fragile racist sexist nazi POTUS"
Nah palpatine would be Soros and Vader the current pants shitter in office
It good to see countries work together
5:00 That felt like the weirdly comforting return of an old friend.
Many innocent lives lost men, women and children killed by the monster in question is also being praised by the former monster.
Humanity.
At a white supremacist rally no less
And cheered on by practically the entire GQP base at CPAC. Even Marco Rubio is tweeting Condemnation of Putin's invasion and he is a STOUT Trumper. Even the open racist US Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas has condemned Putin but refused to do the same to Trump. And Cotton is also a staunch Trumper.
@Mr. chicano both.
I stand with Ukraine! ♥️♥️🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇸🇺🇸
You know Stephen is serious if he brought back "the impression".
I love this guy. Greetings from Spain.
I've been listening to a lot of news coming out of Europe lately. And I keep finding myself interchanging Trump for Putin each time Putins name is mentioned. It continues to be alarming how each are similar.
Yeah, this whole war basically demystified Putin - everyone thought he was a real life Bond villain, a Machiavellian genius. Turns out he's just another petty bully who just had more experience on the job than some other assholes.
Except Putin isn't a moron.
I've always called Drumpf Putin's "sheath" for a reason... I mean, based on his mean-spirited (to put it lightly) actions, he doesn't need that big of one, but still.
give ur graphics dept a raise lol truptin was epic
This whole incident does raise the big question on what happens when all our credit cards and forms of payment are centralized and something bad happens to them
These are the times when I wish a Tom Cruise-Mission Impossible-type character would actually exist to just quietly take the bad guy out without a trace.
when t**** is sent to solitary they will call him "toad in the hole"
The regular people fighting in Ukraine have some balls I hope one day to have
So do their grandmas.
The clang of their giant brass balls has been heard around the world. Slava Ulraini!
Same
Audey: Hope for this: that the people of the world have had enough of this kind of behavior among the leaders of the world. Then you won't need balls except to procreate, which is what they were made for.
The Ukrainian people have the balls most Republicans WISH they had.
You deserve every award they make for just this alone. I literally spat out food laughing.
You know you are on the Wrong side when Switzerland goes against you!!
You know you f’d up if not only Switzerland but also FIFA takes a side against you 😂
When FIFA feel brave enough to act, you know that you done f**ked up….
And UEFA.
@@simonfew6509 When Switzerland feels brave enough to stand up, pick a side and freeze Russian Swiss bank accounts, you fucked up "bigly" as Trump once said.
its called double standars and being servants of the western elites. Thatsd why they choose to remain "apolitical" only is the US ,NATO or Israel are the ones waging war
Screw Putin
It's the people that are always hurt!
Hey! Those knives are handy! Greets from Zurich ;-)
Putin, sounding just like the orange loser, was phenomenal. You have some of the greatest writers ever… although they didn’t actually write the words…but the delivery was incredible.
Stephen and his writers always surpass themselves when facing an attrocity.
Honestly, that's the best time to watch Colbert. Each clip lifts you a little more out of the darkness.
yea, you can really feel they don't give a shit about these people in line. They need to top the level of sociopathy every night. it's tough shit.
@@siddbastard Trying to discredit anybody who criticizes Putin? Sounds familiar. You are an enabler and as such responsible death and destruction in the Ukraine. Exactly like the Germans were in World War ll. Think about it.
The people who are not responsible are paying the price.
Stephen Colbert for president. Incredibly talented.
I get people are applauding the slow Russian economic collapse, but we've got to remember there are real people over there who are against the war and their livelihoods being destroyed because of a leader they don't want or trust.
Putin’s fault
I guess you should think of a way to get
Putin out of the way,
so the rest of the world can go on with their lives.
Absolutely
@@liviadix1433 the "Ides of March" comes to mind, now,.... if we can just find someone to cast as Brutus....
At some point they voted for it.
5:01 LOL. This alone was worth it, the whole monologue is pure gold!
..... No one seems to want to mention how absolutely upside down & horrific this situation would have been
had Drumpf somehow stayed in office.
This is a point that historians will consume themselves with & YOU lived through it....barely.
The world is with you Ukraine. You are all in my prayers.✌🏽🇺🇦
Ukraine deserves everything they need, the Ukrainians are fighting at the front of the free world! 💪💪✊✊
and what about all the deaths from ukrainian nazi in Ukraine last 8 years?
True dat.
