Putin ‘discombobulated’ by Ukraine’s Kursk incursion | Sir Simon Mayall

- “The best form of defence is attack and that’s exactly what the Ukrainians are doing, which is really discombobulating the Russians.”
Putin was “not expecting” Ukraine’s advance into Kursk, made possible through the use of NATO tanks, says Lieutenant General Sir Simon Mayall.

These are no longer British tanks. After giving the tanks to Ukraine they are ukrainian tanks and Ukraine should be able to use them as they want. By the way, I find Carols questions terrible
I, too, find her questions terrible, but you've got it wrong about the weapons. Sure, they got the weapons in their hands, but Ukraine is 100% dependent on our continued support. If we say "you can only use our weapons in this specific way" and they ignore these conditions, we would immediately cancel any further support, thus ensuring Ukraine's end. Also, don't forget that a tank is only as good as its logistics (remember the 50 km column of tanks heading towards Kiew?) - spare parts, ammo. A tank does very little without those.
She’s being a bit of a female dog.
@@amogorkon I do not like this woman, at times she sounds like "You did not ask for my permission on behalf of the UK to use the tanks in Russia"?
I sometimes thinks she is just Anti-Ukraine.
Carol needs to interview people about their pastry shops or something of that calibre. She is totally devoid of sense when the topic is war.
#micdrop
What a dumb question right at the beginning. By every meaningful definition of the words “defensive” and “offensive”, everything Ukraine does in this war is defensive. They are the ones being attacked after all.
Ukraine is showing that counter- offense is the best defense. But counter-offense into Russia with NATO tanks will be used by Russia to recruit faster.
"Attack is the best form of defense" was the right answer to the weak doubts of the interviewer. It reminds me of the French quotation (possibly Voltaire, I'll have to check!) "Attention! Ce chien est bien méchant. Quand on l'attaque, il se défend!"
Thank you for putting my thoughts into words
Америка уз помоћ својих западних савезника, већ деценијама, врши агресије на многе независне државе широм света. Украјина је постала амерички савезник у експанзионистичким циљевима. Када се приближила опасност Русија је реаговала. Помињете границу Украјине. Ниједној нападнутој држави од стране Америке нису помогле границе. Само пропагандисти и дебили могу ово доводити у питање и пласирати свом глупом народу.
Who is that objectionable woman?
she is simply ridiculous. Typical of Putin little music...
What is with this unnecessarily argumentative lady? Geez
Shes kind of doing her job ?
@@rickarnold6704 BADLY!
Russia invades ukraine and then ukraine isn't allowed to attack back in russia. that is madness. ukraine should have the right to use weapons how they see fit and according the rules of war. also its maybe their only chance to get a stronger position in peace talks.
I wonder why this reporters are pushing this narrative and not for supporting more Ukraine?
What is this “strong position”? In the capture of several small villages?
@@maestro6458 the orcs will find out.
@@maestro6458around 100 villages now and Russia's tactics mean that when they get them back they will be devastated.
@@generalinformation4386 Why not 10,000?
There are not even 30 villages in this area and a population of several thousand people. These villages have no strategic significance.
It is British made, but it is definitely 100% Ukrainian Men and Women...your point is only meant to get a rise from the right.
What is wrong with this woman! War is war! She is asking this military expert questions as if it were a dinner party in Surbiton.
Yeah, she's useless. I can't understand how she's allowed to keep her job. I've not seen one interview she's done where she's been a good interviewer or even been able to field intelligent questions.
Russia now is to losing ground in Donetsk as well. Not good for my russia lol. Slava Ukraine from RUSSIA
haha ... is this a house wife they asked
British broadcasters are calm and measured. When they write, the Murdoch press (The Times) writes very unstably. (Edit, typo: Times)
Why Surbiton? 😂
Cringeworthy questions of cowardice.
My German made car does not belong to Germany. It belongs to me. Same with Ukrainian British made tanks. And why do we even care anyway? Isn't it clear that Russia is no longer a nuclear power? They would have nuked someone long ago if they had any that work. Fortunately for the world, two decades worth of maintenance funding for their nuclear arsenal has been stolen, just like everything else, and they can't find one that will work. This is so obvious at this point we can stop all this escalation fear. The war is and will always be a conventional war.
Probably not for that reason.... but yes, I don't think Russia has the wim to use them. I think Biden had a talk with Putin and Xi. They said you wouldn't. He said, "Don't try me...
😂😂😂
If Russia were not a nuclear power, some neighbors would immediately attack it. But they don’t do this precisely because of their nuclear status
😄😄😀😀😀
Oligarch's traded ruzzian army/state capabilities for Mediterranean villas and yachts.
@@maestro6458 really? That's why all states that are not nuclear powers are all attacking each other's?
As someone says below "what is the matter with this interviewer". She raises problems and blocks but has a complete inability to think of solutions. Thankfully the interviewee comes up with sophisticated answers. Who cares what the Russians think, They have lost all rights for anyone to care what equipment is used against them after we have all seen evidence of their tortures, massacres of civilians in Bucha etc. One wonders if the interviewer has totally forgotten all of these events. Those of us that follow the war in detail on Telegram etc, have certainly not.
Carol fawning over Donald Trump is bad enough but this is simply nauseating , she’s a disgrace
Should she fawn over Kamalla like the rest of the media?
If Trump was President, I doubt that this war would have ever occurred. Same with the middle east.
Amen !
@conalldoorley4863 If Trump was President, I doubt there would be a war in Ukraine. Or the middle east.
It is plain to see you do not know how journalism works. (sigh). I shall explain. If the person being interviewed is left leaning, you take a right position in your questions, and vice versa.
If the person interviewed is for Ukraine, you introduce the Russian perspective, and if they are pro-Russia, you ask questions from a western perspective. If a journalist does not take a contrary position, they can't draw out good explanations for the viewer. Then you end up with a Fox or Newsmax propaganda style of fake journalism that tRump loves.
So to sum up, she is NOT pro Russia nor fawning over tRump, she is getting the interviewed person to explain his position to we the viewers. Just as she should.
She’s parroting Russian talking points. Stop.
Her questions allow the counter-arguments to Russia's propaganda to be elaborated, so that's a good thing.
The issue is not the questions she asks, but the answers he gives to those "Russian talking points". That's how journalism works.
She's asking questions.
I'm starting to think she has an oligarch influence in her tone.
She is taking cues from Marjorie Traitor Greene in the US.
Terrible interviewer. Questions are poorly leading and she doesn’t understand what a dynamic defense is.
Perhaps she made it too easy for the guest. However, she also swiftly refuted and ridiculed the "student debate" strawman argument.
That Russian interviewer has a surprisingly good British accent! Couldn't stomach more than a minute of this interview.
Good answers though
This woman should go live in Kursk
I live in Kursk, need toilet
No, Moscow
So What! If Russia doesn’t want tanks on their soil they should get out of Ukraine.
But then Ukraine will join NATO
@lg2058
Ukraine was likely 20 years from joining NATO Prior to Putrids invasion. The majority of Ukrainians weren't really for joining NATO.
Now the vast majority want to.
This was never about Ukraine joining NATO.
It's always been about Putrids dream of reconstituting the ruZZian empire.
A statement of Putrid when the Soviet Union collapsed.
In his eyes, the greatest catastrophe in history.
He's quite the Drama Queen.
@@lg2058 So what?
@@lg2058 and? When did a non NATO country get to dictate NATO membership?
@@stevenmitchell5499 2022?
This interviewer is asking idiotic questions! 🤯
"Maybe we should have voted on it before Ukraine did it's super secret invasion of Kirsk" she's an idiot.
She can't help it.
She doesn’t get it or she is being deliberately obtuse.
Most western MSM are like this.
1000% Listened to her a few times. She's in it for entertainment purposes and needs to be sent home!
Ukraine is not using British Tanks. They were given to the Ukrainian Army. There should be no restrictions on Ukraine. Politician have no role on a battlefield. Generals must be able to do what they must do. Are there risks? I hate that question. of course there are risks, it's a war.
They are not British tanks. They are owed by Ukraine.
Does she just ask one question in 27 ways! Painful.
She is having problems getting the answer that she wants.
Those are Ukrainian tanks, just happened to be made in GB.
Many here in russia, we are to laughing at our own army now
Exactly
@@supersardonic1179 Russia is joke now though, not taken seriously by any country, Ukrainian can use any tank they wish🤭
There are f sixteens working as well very few know this🤫
@supersardonic1179 does the maker of your car put limits on where it can be used? The concept that the manufacturer retains some rights is absurd.
Well duh. Everyone knows that.
Sack that woman. Why is she just sying the stuff putin would want her to parrot?
WHY IS SHE SUPPORTING RUSSIA ?????
She always sounds pro russian ,, I dont like her ,
Boomer, loves Farage and Robinson, too.
SLAVA UKRAINE 🇺🇦 💙💛💙💛💙💛🇨🇦
🇺🇦🏴🇺🇦✌️
Ridiculous. Ukraine isnt borrowing the tanks.
This is the cheapest way to degrade the power that is constantly threatening the west WITHOUT any threat to NATO service members. And Russia can stop ANY time it wants. It will never get this cheap again.
Wow, that one woman was pretty terrible. Like New York Post terrible. .
Woah! To be compared to The NY Post is the highest insult. 💯
Putin has made no effort to de-escalate this so i totally agree with Sir Simon...we have to increase support to Ukraine and be prepared to become directly involved to re-establish peace in Europe
Who's side is she on ???
Hers and she is intent on pushing her agenda.
@@generalinformation4386 intent on pushing Putin's agenda
More like she is just very "anti Ukrainian".
Carole is a scary journalist and too worried about Russia than Ukraine this is sad.
I am Russian and she is more pro russian than *ME.* 😵
It wasn't Carole Walker (the female interviewer) who was the problem; rather the female interviewee (whoever she was) answering the questions in the second part of the video was the one placing limits on the use of western weapons.
@dpelpal is not that people hate Russian is the regime that causing this problems, because Putin is a dictator.
she bot of the Kremlin.
You would think that a british person would understand the importance of supporting a fellow democracy win a war when a fascist bully comes for them. An amazing number of cowards have been revealed by this war.
This woman would complain if Ukraine started eating British apple pies in Russia.
To Moscow
That's why this man is a Sir. and great interview. Sadly, the same thing can't be said for the interviewer. Talk radio needs to send her home! What kind of questioning is this?
Sir Simon doesn't let Miss Carol pass her pro-Russian arguments. And she is SO upset!
So true ! Painful listening to her nonsense
You got that reversed. When she argued for Storm Shadows to be used against Russia, he pushed back.
To call Times Radio pro-Russia, is a very trumpian accusation.
@@martythemartian99 I called just her pro-Russian. I am not the first one.
@@sailormoon5760 So you are not the first troll. Good for you.🤣
@@martythemartian99 thats doesn't make sense, TRump is for Putin ! why would Trump accuse this interviewer ? however, I didn't say Times Radio, I said this woman, she's awful interviewer, dumb questions poorly presenting and with a way of delivering that sounds hysterical sometimes ;)
Shades of Abysinia and Spain in the 1930's. Do not tie the Ukrainians hands behind their backs .
This woman is really obnoxious.
She is indeed
Carole needs to watch Russian propaganda shows. If anything they are cooling their bombastic tone.
It's questions like this that got us into this mess
She's asking 'worried mother' questions. C'mon!
I'm sorry she's a bit wussy.
She's a Suspect
The Times nick name once was "The Thunderer" now it should be Putin's Poodle.
Everything can’t be a debate, you would never make a decision. Ridiculous
How many range rovers, bentleys and rolls royces are driving in Moscow? Sack this Carol! She is detrimental to Times Radio!
President Biden, please drop the restrictions and let Ukraine win, finally
british kit was to used under the international rules of law in warfare. other countries are the ones lagging.
Putins 3 day special evacuation of Kursk
i keep hearing the ww2 references. yet one says how Stalin purposely starved millions to death in Ukraine for their 'greater good' even though it was and is one the most fertile farming regions in Europe. its sad some western media will still make excuses or at least not give the full facts
My father was a child in Ukraine that suffered terribly under Stalin rule. You can probably guess where my loyalties lie.
Why is this pro-Russian interviewer on Times Radio?
Because they need balance.
These Times Radio hosts really don’t seem to like Ukraine taking the fight to Russia. Why is that?
The ukrainians also using russian-made equipment and armor and artillery
How is possible to have such low qualified journalists?They even don't know how to ask a question?
She is awful. It is funny how he says "Carol."
60% kursh oblast evacuation notice is alot of russians talking about putins failed war
Russia army now is world's joke🤣
Putin will put the evacuated people to extremely remote areas. The last thing he wants is witnesses to speak about what a massive failure his government caused.
+his is jus+ be(ause eu is ou+ o|-_ y

Why is so many people questioning the use of Western equipment on the battlefeild ,have they forgotten that Russia supplied Vietnam its equipment for 10 years along with china ...Americans supplied Afghanistan Stinger missiles to use against Russia in Afghan war in 80's ,Russian weapons in sevaral conflicts in Africa and terrorist organisations all over the globe ,It is only now we see American arms apearing to all over the globe now to its interest's.What goes around ,comes around ....
why are you still worried about westrn material going into russia...these host are still ignorant come on mate.
Sir Simon Mayall has a lot of patience. That lady!!☝🏼🤯
Carol.. you are nit listening..!!
Ukraine has every right to pound the enemy whichever way they want.
Get through your head that russia attacked them fir no good reason, and putins wish is not reason at all. He is a criminal.
What you should be saying and asking is what else can we do to keep Ukraine moving forward.
So quit being combative about whats right.
She tries to question everything without having any idea herself. These are the typical intellectual questions that sound better than they are.
Slava Ukraine!!! 🇺🇦🇺🇸🇺🇦🇺🇸🇺🇦
Instead of asking the general some strategic questions of real military importance, we instead get a series of hand-wringing (and frankly dumb) questions about provoking Russia. Russian land ceased to be sacrosanct and inviolable the minute they invaded Ukraine in 2014 and then again in February 2022.
I hope we have more of Sir Simon Mayall on this channel and less of the host.
So his word for the day is discombobulated
This particular interviewer asks really a single question, all over again, in all her interviews: "I am terrified of Putin, you should be as well, aren't you?". Fortunately she is much better at picking up interviewees than at questioning.
❤ Ukrainians ❤
GOD bless this man saying the fact
I applaud this interviewee..... He word slapped this coward radio news anchor right back in her place. Lol the student debate line of response was epic.
Lieutenant General Sir Simon Mayall. Thank you for your expert knowledge. and sense. This is a fight for democracy and freedom that we all enjoy so much. Ukraine is making all the sacrifices after all.
What is wrong with this woman? Playing devils advocate for the audience I hope.
Wonder who’s side she’s on .
“Are there risks here”?! Russia is using arms from Iran, China, & North Korea. Were there risks to them in doing that?! Stop linking sources of arms to the actual countries doing the fighting. Is this host joking, ignorant, or mad?! Ukraine should do whatever they want, including taking Russian land to later trade it back for the Donbas & Crimea. FML, this lady.
Totally worthless discussion. Those are Ukraine's tanks and equipment now, so stop with the silliness, Ukraine is fighting for its life the best it can. The only country and military that is not a bunch of pansies are the Ukrainian military. Europe and UK need to quit bumbling and fumbling around, wake up and help Ukraine save its country and Europe in the process. Or they will guaranty they will be fighting Russia in the future minus the existence of the Baltic States.
Is this the lady that inserted another syllable into 'Bakhmut'?
This woman is not a good interviewer at all. Every interview she does is an exercise in puerile questioning of a knowledgable guests. Hopeless.
This lady helps the auto deterrence narrative that has hampered the solution to this agression and caused thousands of casualties because the conflict goes on and on
Really we are having this discussion while Russia does what it has done. Really!
With Australian and British troops training Ukraines special forces. I quote: "Most of us would like be beside them and doing some fighting too." A poll was conducted in Australian biggest Army base, and 78% said they would like to be given a leave of absence and want to fight in Ukraine. No shortage of volunteers. 40% of the Ukraine Foreign Legion are British troops and they are in the Kursh invasion.
You cannot win a war by chucking stones from the sidelines. There are five Russian air bases that Ukraine wants to make inoperable and thats what they are doing.
,👍 Sir Simon
Russia was defending Kursk with thoughts and prayers
Is Carol auditioning for RT? Lt. Gen Simon Mayall got a little annoyed with her line of questioning. I fully agree with Lt. Gen Ben Hodges - it's not a British Challenger tank, it's a Ukraine Challenger tank. What's with all this worry about russia's Red Lines. As we've seen, they don't exist.
If Russia doesn’t want the horns, stop messing with the bull.
My guess is that parking your tanks on your neighbours lawn is often considered 'offensive'. Why did Russia not understand this?
Spot on Sir
Why is the interviewer parroting russian propaganda?
Why is Time Radio trying to incite panic about Ukraine defending itself?
The ministry of defence said it was ok so stop lying.
Is this lady for real ?? Some of the dumbest questions and comments I heard recently
Ukraine's special operation has been a rousing success......sowing panic with local residents who jam the highways..........slowing Russian reinforcements.
There are no russian reinforcements lol
But not for the Islington twitterati as represented by the ancient interviewer.
The origin of manufacture does not constitute ownership. Following this logic, your car belongs to the company that made it. Are they liable if you get in an auto-accident? Imagine Ford tells you once you buy your car "You cannot use it to go shopping" hahaha
These people who ask the worse questions ..are there risks?.. All combat actions have risks??? Geesh!!
Sir Simon is absolutely right
Carol sounds like Neville Chamberlain.
shes like a medieval pacifist. "We'll tolerate being under siege, but we won't chase you away"
i cant stand this interviewer..
This lady is confused by the word 'defense'. Ukraine IS defending itself with this operation.
In the middle of every night, Czar Nicholas II whispers something in putin's ear ...and immediately Putin wakes up in a cold sweat..
She should go live in Moscow.
'I love this interview. Nice job of putting Carol in her place!
Mayall is talking nonsense. This is not the 20th Century. Airbases within russian territory allow russia to launch devastating bomb attacks against civilian targets in Ukraine as well as on front line troops and settlements in Ukraine. Defence starts by disabling those airfields, weapon stocks and planes, all located safely in russia.
That he sees land battles in Kursk as bneing of little military significance, and therefore suitable for the use of western weaponry, shows only that he has no grasp of the conflict. Glad he is retired!
Stand with Ukraine! 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
Thank you
These "rules" used to handcuff Ukrainia are ridiculous!
