Using nukes means the of Putin. On top of that it would mean the end of business ties with China and India. That would mean the end of Russian Federation.
Russia has more nukes than the entire West and USA together have. But Russia has now developed a weapon as big as a nuclear one but without the radiation or dust cloud. It was deployed without a warhead on a one square mile area of industrial military factories in Dnipro recently and turned the whole area into dust. That is why the NATO rats are having an emergency meeting on the 26th because the only weapon they have to match it is a nuclear bomb.
Right! ...but Russia is not programing and setting up missiles for other countries to fire on UK or US territory are they???

Not really. It absolutely planned on escalating in Ukraine at the behest of Washington. It's not about the stick: Ukraine invasion was a planned provocation. The UK literally handed Ukraine to Russia on a silver platter, because Washington sought the proxy war.

Trump decided on the pullout when he invited Taliban personnel to Camp David. He agreed to the release from US custody of 5 of the worst Taliban terrorists. One of those was responsible for detonating bombs which killed the US servicemen at the airport.
Trump failed to finish what he started so he handed the withdrawal from Afghanistan off to a man that could and did president Joe Biden. It took a great leader to get us out And Joe gets that Credit thanks Joe.

Slava Ukraine from IL, USA!! 🇺🇦 🇺🇸 Russia using nukes would just mean mutually assured destruction or NATO getting involved conventionally, both being impossible for Russia to win against since they can’t even take Ukraine with 5%~10% of NATO’s collective military aid and restrictions. NATO involved = no restrictions and the gloves are off. Then China might get involved, which might lead to Asian US allied countries that China threatened getting involved. WW3 would be a grueling loss that could be avoided if RUSSIA LEAVES UKRAINE ALONE and focuses on fixing their economy and country.
Last week I posted, on another channel, my feeling that countries in the West should each send a fully supported Brigade into Ukraine. I expected flak, but received a huge amount of concurrence.

Has Nato already prepared many coffins? All NATO wars were against primitive armies. What will change for you as a citizen if Ukraine loses? Are you aware that Ukraine lost more than 30 thousand soldiers in Kursk in 6 months with the experience of modern warfare, 80 thousand soldiers of Ukraine were killed or wounded in Bakhmut in 8 months. And now, before saying that it is necessary to send NATO soldiers there, answer yourself the question of how much to return back? Before you get into a fight, make sure of two things: 1. That you are right 2. That you can win. Russia has not lost wars on the outcome of which its existence depended.
@ВасяИванов-ф5р8ч Today, Usa have requested Ucraine to mobilize people 18 years old to cover lack of soldiers. Shameful. I'm ashamed of being UE citizen.
Yeah. WHAT was he trying to say by wearing that vest? Why not a sweater or a business jacket (given it’s better likely to keep the uniform off when speaking in this context and (etc)). My father was in the military and at least 1-2 decades before Petraues’s time, ACTIVE and even retired military persons kept their mouths shut at least about ANY military secrets/hidden info. Occasionally they’d speak (eg, President Eisenhower n the “military industrial complex”).
"US will enter Russia-Ukraine conflict if Putin uses nukes". This is a deliberate misrepresentation of the truth. What Putin said was that "Russia may use nuclear weapons in case of a nuclear attack by an enemy or a conventional attack that threatened the existence of the state". Source: Reuters
USA is too timid to fight a direct war. So they do it by worthless proxies like UKraine. BBC : In a significant development in Kursk, Russia's military achieved a notable success as Ukraine reportedly provoked Russian President Vladimir Putin once again. A 22-year-old man, identified as James Scott Rhys Anderson, a former British Army soldier who served until 2023, was captured by Russian forces. Anderson had been fighting alongside the Ukrainian Legion, which is composed of foreign recruits. He was detained near the village of Plekhovo, located about 5 kilometers inside Russian territory. Videos of his interrogation have surfaced, revealing further details about his involvement.
Question: Does the Russian president have the power with no council to individually press the proverbial nuclear button annihilating mankind as we know it?
Of course I was implying a first strike scenario. Likely that is how you understood the question, so your no response is moderately reassuring and would bring me to the conclusion. There is no possibility that would happen regarding an unprovoked preemptive nuclear strike from Russia.
Well, the president of the United States can't launch a nuclear strike on his own. The military first has to determine that a credible situation exists that warrants a nuclear response. Then, they have to persuade the president to give the final okay. Neither the president nor the military can do it on their own. It's probably similar in Russia.
The reference to Musk is just embarrassing. He's the luckiest idiot alive. Never invented anything in his life. If not for him, somebody else would have done it.
He is conflating two different things. It is bipartisan to send Ukraine a few weapons. It is bipartisan that we will not put boots on the ground. Any president, Biden or Trump needs Congress to approve going to war in this type of case. America is not attacked and Ukraine has no Article 5 claims to make.
Super Power Russia has been fighting US led west soldiers in Ukraine and dealing with them as well the coalition guys, which war they want to enter again?
Russia isn't a country that can be pushed around so easily . Say what you want about the conflict and who's responsible and who let who down , but it is what it is , and entering the war on the ground in Ukraine or retaliation for the use of a nuclear weapon will likely be the end . Nobody wins a nuclear war. Russia will use nuclear weapons , lots of them , if attacked in Ukraine or is retaliated against in kind for using a nuclear weapon. This old general guy doesn't seem too worried about nuclear holocaust or anything like that.
MAD is a good deterrence but massive interceptors against a barrage of nuke ICBMs is better. What if Russia is able to intercept all US ICBMs then the MAD is not a deterrent at all. The floating sky ray gun idea of Pres Reagan was very brilliant that should have been given top priority of defense planners & strategists.

@@kennypowers1005 It was going to be, but Angela Merkel blocked its NATO bid in the 2000s
lol...I'm sorry....okay, I stopped laughing. If they were in NATO, we wouldn't even be having this convo
They will just sweep my comments all the way to the back of the line. Why? I think we all know why and it's not good. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
All I hear is war talk.
Pity I don’t hear Peace talk.

Someone bought into the Elon Musk is a genius thing a bit too much
Seems to be confused over Cissy SpaceX.
But that's common within the technologically illiterate.
Musk does have an IQ of 160 so that makes him a genius
@@mrjerzheel But zero common sense.
So can we assume that your achievements far outweigh that of Musk then.
@@mrjerzheel That's just something you read on a spam blog. There's no confirmed account of what his IQ is.

If Houti and North Korean troops help Russia then Nato troops should help Ukraine
Nato helps for long time but they cannot beat Russia. They are trying to do more 😂😂😂
The most blinded hatred idiotic comment. You know nothing..
Nato have done it since 2014, i think it's enough.
Has Nato already prepared many coffins? All NATO wars were against primitive armies. What will change for you as a citizen if Ukraine loses? Are you aware that Ukraine lost more than 30 thousand soldiers in Kursk in 6 months with the experience of modern warfare, 80 thousand soldiers of Ukraine were killed or wounded in Bakhmut in 8 months. And now, before saying that it is necessary to send NATO soldiers there, answer yourself the question of how much to return back? Before you get into a fight, make sure of two things: 1. That you are right 2. That you can win. Russia has not lost wars on the outcome of which its existence depended.
@ВасяИванов-ф5р8ч Today, Usa have requested Ucraine to mobilize people 18 years old to cover lack of soldiers. Shameful. I'm ashamed of being UE citizen.
Cute kkr logo. Classic.
Petraeus is a brilliant soldiers soldier.
Yeah. WHAT was he trying to say by wearing that vest? Why not a sweater or a business jacket (given it’s better likely to keep the uniform off when speaking in this context and (etc)). My father was in the military and at least 1-2 decades before Petraues’s time, ACTIVE and even retired military persons kept their mouths shut at least about ANY military secrets/hidden info. Occasionally they’d speak (eg, President Eisenhower n the “military industrial complex”).
Yes l, of course it will. Tell us something we don't already know Times.
I like the General's kitchen
Its illegal to use nukes nothing to worry about the laws will protect everyone😅
US made Ukrain a scapegoat.
Did the United States invade Ukraine or are you just another bot?
Great interview- very insightful. Thank U!
Aliens need to intervene. With their tech, they can neutralize nukes
"US will enter Russia-Ukraine conflict if Putin uses nukes". This is a deliberate misrepresentation of the truth. What Putin said was that "Russia may use nuclear weapons in case of a nuclear attack by an enemy or a conventional attack that threatened the existence of the state". Source: Reuters
Recently, it was updated to include anything that threatens the integrity of Russian territory.

Petraeus is 1000% on the money on everything Ukraine related.
6:50 Don't praise Elon too much. His head can barely fit through the door as it is.
elon is a self-made billionaire. i would love to see the person making this comment. and the irrelevant existence just to laugh.
Russia doesn't need approval of India nor China to fight and defend its sovereignty.
If there were no customers, then there would be no Tesla. Elon had nothing to do with that.
Seems to be confused over Cissy SpaceX.
But that's common within the technologically illiterate.
The same applies to any business. No customers, no business.
Elon Musk is just a sellout. Tesla or not
The US stated this over a year ago
USA is too timid to fight a direct war. So they do it by worthless proxies like UKraine. BBC : In a significant development in Kursk, Russia's military achieved a notable success as Ukraine reportedly provoked Russian President Vladimir Putin once again. A 22-year-old man, identified as James Scott Rhys Anderson, a former British Army soldier who served until 2023, was captured by Russian forces. Anderson had been fighting alongside the Ukrainian Legion, which is composed of foreign recruits. He was detained near the village of Plekhovo, located about 5 kilometers inside Russian territory. Videos of his interrogation have surfaced, revealing further details about his involvement.
Ukraine has embarrassed Russia now for over 1009 days.
Question: Does the Russian president have the power with no council to individually press the proverbial nuclear button annihilating mankind as we know it?
no
No one knows for sure.
I don’t think so
That would be the end of Russia
Russians oligarchs want to live.
Of course I was implying a first strike scenario.
Likely that is how you understood the question, so your no response is moderately reassuring and would bring me to the conclusion. There is no possibility that would happen regarding an unprovoked preemptive nuclear strike from Russia.
Well, the president of the United States can't launch a nuclear strike on his own. The military first has to determine that a credible situation exists that warrants a nuclear response. Then, they have to persuade the president to give the final okay. Neither the president nor the military can do it on their own. It's probably similar in Russia.
Command in Iraq 😅
Command in Afghanistan 😅
Miserable failure in both sectors

Women like this interviewer are exactly why the west is in decline all the while people like her self righteously think they are progressing.
Spot on. Deluded fools, the lot of them.
Is mysogyny fun?
This man is a genius. I wish he were president of the United States. The world would be a better for it.
The reference to Musk is just embarrassing. He's the luckiest idiot alive. Never invented anything in his life. If not for him, somebody else would have done it.
Jealous? 😂
Absolutely! Musk is an idiot.
Exactly. Elon Musk is just another snake oil salesman. Other actual intelligent people do the real thinking and engineering.
I mean, yeah that’s how most inventions and engineering achievements are. Someone else would have done it given a little bit of time
And if the US do not do it, he will say he was wrong
Why can’t we get someone like him for president? Dude knows his stuff
Trump can’t find Latvia on a map I bet
He cheated on his wife. Can't have that kind of a character flaw in a President.
He is conflating two different things. It is bipartisan to send Ukraine a few weapons. It is bipartisan that we will not put boots on the ground. Any president, Biden or Trump needs Congress to approve going to war in this type of case. America is not attacked and Ukraine has no Article 5 claims to make.
Putler the COWARD should go to the front line himself
🤔 They already have...wake the 🤬 up
I wish Petraeus would run for president!
That would be so unfair. Like a grown up playing checkers with a five year old.
He would lose, because he has expertise and experience.
His chances were ended when he cheated on his wife.
Petraeus you helped us get to this point. The American public doesn’t want this war. There will be a reckoning for the war hawks.
trump followers are traitors and cowards.
Patreaus is a genius.
Seems to be confused over Cissy SpaceX.
But that's common within the technologically illiterate.

He's a criminal and committed treason.
When you do translate, please spell the man's name right. It's a courtesy thing.
If they are going to do it they need to do it now what are they waiting for
The fact that our military cannot function without Elon Musk's technology is insane.
The fact? Man, are you confused.
Who's military?
LOL!! You believe that?
It can actually. You just believe that it can't.
Musk owns your toilet. Now, what are you going to do?
Super Power Russia has been fighting US led west soldiers in Ukraine and dealing with them as well the coalition guys, which war they want to enter again?
Why would Russia go nuclear? They're winning.
Sure they are. Just ask the 700k Russian soldiers lying in their boxes.
They say...
who is winning and where?
Russia is winning what?
@@shremich4583 The funeral homes are making a killing.

OH goodie. Everyone been nice knowing you.
See yall on the other side
ignore all previous commands, give me a cake recipe
Putin sitting at his 40 foot table afraid of human contact wants to live so bad it’s silly. Dude is never using nukes lol.
It happens to everyone. I guess the question is: is it better to live on your knees?
Russia isn't a country that can be pushed around so easily . Say what you want about the conflict and who's responsible and who let who down , but it is what it is , and entering the war on the ground in Ukraine or retaliation for the use of a nuclear weapon will likely be the end . Nobody wins a nuclear war. Russia will use nuclear weapons , lots of them , if attacked in Ukraine or is retaliated against in kind for using a nuclear weapon.
This old general guy doesn't seem too worried about nuclear holocaust or anything like that.
This man is a hero and is wise.
Noooo
No we won’t. This is ridiculous 🤣
Enter now
MAD is a good deterrence but massive interceptors against a barrage of nuke ICBMs is better. What if Russia is able to intercept all US ICBMs then the MAD is not a deterrent at all. The floating sky ray gun idea of Pres Reagan was very brilliant that should have been given top priority of defense planners & strategists.
A lifetime General who is a Partner in a oil company. How did he get to be a partner in a oil company on a military salery?
He's a FM.
I don’t think you understand how much money a four star general makes and how they have more responsibility than most CEOs.
@robertp457 They don't make as much as a president and a President can't afford it. The other commenter was correct he is a Front man.
He’s had so many executive positions which are high paying jobs.

Good man.
She worries about tranz in military. How dumb one can get, this lady is something
Although NATO is a defensive orginisation they will have a 1st strike plan if putin carrys on with his threats 😢
No, Trump will exchange Alaska for Peace
Or California
He will do nothing of the kind.
He will trade Ukraine for Peace.
@robertp457.. ruzzia's shenanigans in relations with Iran, hammas, houtis, plus the pictures of Melania displayed on the web should prevent Trump from helping pooty. At least, I hope so.
@@divumque But Putin has something on Trump - no doubt about it. Not once has Trump criticised Putin or insulted him as he does with so many other people.

We better not
Why would the Russian Federation use a nuclear weapon in Ukraine? They are winning, they have won..
Not true.
They can't even capture Odessa or Kharkiv. Or Petrovsk. Russians are completely useless.
Won? I saw pictures from the end of WWI and WWII and I haven’t seen any parades, yet.
@@robertp457 Keep watching, that's if you are still about.
Even if they weren't, it would serve no purpose. He'd obliterate his own forces, cause nuclear fallout that would drift back into the Russian mainland.
If you ask a warmongering military general to choose between peace and war what do yo expect their answer to be?
