Scam
I think the labels for the "Coping Mechanisms" are reversed.
Do you all check your messages on any platform? I asked if you had made your Pacific War series members-only and never received a response
@@drewallen717 there is a community post on youtube. Check it out. We don't have time to answer every message, unfortunately.
I think it’s great this channel is keeping up with the conflict. The short, 3 minute updates the news outlets provide simply aren’t enough. You keep making them and Ill keep watching
Wasn't expecting the Jinjer shout-out that's awesome! "Home Back" is a great song, and it's quite interesting to hear their perspective. Tati is literally, an extremely powerful voice for her people.
They were just here in West Texas!!
You really should reconsider having Masterworks as your sponsor.
Please stop taking scam sponsorships. The money isnt worth your credibility.
I lose respect for any channel that takes that masterwork scam as a sponsor. Obviously they're paying good, but no channel this big is running out of sponsors, so it's selling out for greed. If it was like a small channel and the only sponsor they could find was that it would be more forgivable.
Same. But it's an informative channel so I am still subscribed for now.
Preach it brother.
What makes it a scam?
LOL skip the adds like everyone else
@@Ben..... Skipping the ad doesn't make any less of a scam. Brain much?
I think the whole idea is that neither economy does cope. Ukraine is 100% reliant on western aid, and Russia is 100% reliant on fuel sales while reducing imports for obvious reasons.
The main question then is, what stops sooner, Russian exports or Western money - I would not bet on the continuation of the latter, many elections are incoming, and the populace is not happy.
@@SakiniCZThe West will hold, Russia will scramble.
Biggest risk to Ukraine will be when Russia withdraws.
Crisis over, there is a risk that public interest wanes before private finance takes over. Not likely, but possible.
Russia has walked into a catastrophy; it's pensions will evaporate. The west will be shook, but will not crumble like Russia will. Russian fellow travelers telling us the West will collapse are the same people who told us Europe will freeze. Rusians pensions are going to burn up.
@@SakiniCZ yes, the West is not happy but we also know Ukraine isn't to blame for it.
Russia started the war just like Europe became victim to Nazi Germany 80 years ago. so we can sympathize with the Ukrainian people.
and of all the things in the West to be unhappy about only inflation is really because of the war (all the other things were already there).
and that is only high because we're transitioning from Russian energy to green energy and the blockade of Ukrainian food by Russia.
we could always introduce some extra windfall taxes for companies using this war to line their pockets.
or redirect some of our aid for foreign countries to Ukraine (like from countries that take our money but at the same time act against us)
and because of the decent welfare system in the West the most vulnerable people are taken care of.
@@ChristiaanHW If it only was that simple with inflation, life would be so good. And who will do a windfall tax on the weapons manufacturers? Politicians? Those who ate being paid by those manufacturers? Secretary Austin was on the Raytheon board, and will return there after his term - nobody will do taxes on their wins. Let us talk about the situation after six months or so, or maybe after all the US bond holders begin to sell them by lot... You have a very idealistic view of the situation, good for you, I have a realistic view and it doesn´t look good.
Jinjer's reference reminds me of a phrase by Georges Clemenceau, the French Victory Father when he quotes: "A human is only truly free when he owns a home".
Jinjer. Don't you leave us homeless. What a great way to end this. Thank you

Once again, thank you for this informative content! I follow the news on the war rather closely, and this makes the situation more digestible than the day-to-day grind.
The only downside of this channel is the fact that they are supporting Masterworks... 😢
The only good thing Masterworks is doing is supporting channels like this.
Considering Russia's recent refocus to compensating its soldiers to increase recruitment, I'm curious to see just how far each country can push their warchests.
Ukraine has an unlimited warchest cause the US can just "print" a 100 or 200 billion and it wont affect the dollar at all. Russia is in a bind since it has to sell its resources for a much cheaper price but it can still earn money to buy foreign stuff and is self sufficient when it comes to energy and food. So the war can go for a long time.
...taxpayers
Ukraine does not need to push their warchest, they just rely on US to do that and US war chest is basically bottomless.
@@abderrahimbenmoussa4359 ...bottomless? Have you heard the news from Fitch rating house lately? Might be "bottomless", but the const of borrowing $ will be going high r + the value of the $ will be going lower...so, "bottomless" is relative, + at the end the taxpayer pays for everything without being asked !!
@@abderrahimbenmoussa4359 that will stop when Trump or Vivek wins US presidency, they no longer want the US to waste money on Europe.
It is truly Prigover 😔
Thank you for another educational episode. I don't know much about how economic policy shifts during warfare in general, but I would enjoy additional episodes on the topic. As a final note, as always, may this war end soon.
God be with you out there everybody. ✝️
Love the content as usual, the regular masterworks ads put a bad taste in my mouth though. I know the channel has to eat, but i just wish there were less ethically grey sponsors Kings and Generals could pick up...
Why don't you donate then
Are you guys going to so à serie about the economy of different kingdoms and empires in history , that would be insane !! Love your video as always
Thanks for your video, it's awesome to watch your video dude
"Head of the central bank of Russia plans to keep interest rates low to control inflation." As someone with a limited knowledge of economics....isn't that going to have the opposite effect? By increasing the money supply you increase inflation. Was that something she had said or where did that idea come from?
Iirc , their central increased interest rates about 3.5%.
The narrator misspoke
I really love these videos but I haven't heard much about the continuing Pacific Theater series for a month. I hope it will be back soon!
They moved that series to be available only for Members. The declining views were hurting the entire channel with the algorithm.
Awesome as always
Very informative. Thank you.
Man I hope the Internet lasts long enough to grow this period in hindsight. We have an unprecedented opportunity to see a wide variety of opinions with so many.... openly expressed ideas
“There is no instance of a nation benefitting from prolonged warfare.”

@@Proph3t3N there aren't any proxy war at the time that he was still alive so by war then he meant Direct War
The US did.
Thank you for the video
Thank you for this!
Nicely informative video
Keep it coming!
I don't think this video really covered either countries' transition to war economy. A pie chart on public spending comparing current and pre war in percentages and absolute terms would be a good place to start, it can lead into what services are being cut and where most of the dollars go. A similar chart on public finances should inform on changes to tax base and new sources of finance. It is unfortunate I am no better informed after watching the video.
Oppression and repression are two words we often use interchangeably, assuming them to have similar meanings. However, there is a distinct difference between oppression and repression. Oppression is usually done by one group of people to another group, whereas repression can be something one does to one’s own desires and impulses.
In other words, you're using the wrong word there.
repression
noun
re·pres·sion ri-ˈpre-shən
Synonyms of repression
1
a
: the action or process of repressing : the state of being repressed
repression of unpopular opinions
b
: an instance of repressing
racial repressions
2
a
: a mental process by which distressing thoughts, memories, or impulses that may give rise to anxiety are excluded from consciousness and left to operate in the unconscious
b
: an item so excluded
Fantastic video
Both war economies can probably last longer then the war itself, so political and military developments will decide.
Some experts state the realistic chance of the war taking another few years, into 2026 as theoretical maximum efforts will be reached when improving the war engine.
Excellent video.
I love you guys. I'm totally gonna be a patron once I start getting paychecks again lol
They just killed Prigozhin. Can't wait for the next video!
+50 points for mentioning Jinjer! What an epic band!
Please stop pushing Masterworks - a really shady business.
There's a reason you don't hear your broker pushing investments in stocks down an individual investor's throat - it's illegal to do so (see Wolf of Wall Street as well ... decent movie). That doesn't apply, sadly, to paintings.
The description of Medvedev is hilarious.😁
Isnt masterworks a scam?
nice choice of soundtrack for this one
loved it!
Russia going down:
-Economy
-Population
-War
-People out the window
-Currency
-Moskva warship (flagship)
-space craft
🤣😂
Russia have allready won. They are self sufficent while Ukraine live on charity. It is unsustainable in The long run.
@@napoleon7107there so self sufficient they have to get drones and ammunition from Iran and North Korea, had to use a PMC to take a bombed out wasteland after 10 months of shelling, and now make cars with out ADS breaks or airbags because the west pulled all their trade deals out…..
@@nobodyherepal3292 Yes they by thoose drones using their ownmoney. NO lones or charity. As to The rest. You must be a sheep to keep reguegutating anything The media here in The west tells you. Ukraine have lost around 400 000 dead to Russias 45 000. It is not sustainable. By this point you just prolonging The suffering of young ukrainians. Somalia have a greater chance of being The richest nation on earth by next year Then Ukraine have of winning this war. It is over. The faster people like you realise that you have been lied to The faster can we The people put a stop to The unesecary suffering and save what is left of ukraine
Nice video, congratulations as always to the "@Kings and Generals", but a minor criticism: since when do the sociologists' opinion count on as economic expertise?!
Excellent
0:05 Ah bup bup bup! You forgot to call it "Russia's unprovoked invasion of Ukraine"
good job :)
Awesome call out by Jinger and by K&G for using it.
Jinjer is an awesome band.. been a fan for years!
On the increase in Ukrainian debt, this was also experienced by the British during WW2. Its unavoidable because the damaged Ukrainian economy cant pay for the weapons and public services slone.
I'm again getting distracted by wrongly located cities on the map. It's better than the revolution video, but still some mistakes (Luhanks, Bachmut) manage to creep through.
Love this
Keep sponsoring Masterworks, and people will keep downvoting your videos.
Thanks
I think K&G should have touched on the natural gas exports and how it's being used as a political weapon. But great and informative video!
Great video as always. Can you guys maybe do something about the Egyptian Ottoman wars (1831) and (1839) ?
Which map projection do you use? East-West distances look soooo stretched
Interesting.
Ukraine’s economy is cashing checks from other economies.
cost is not just humanitarian and financial for people.. but ecological to ,few things can leave regions poisoned for decades like industrial war
I saw ginger with Disturbed recently, they're awesome! I hope they get their home back!
A view on ongoing conflict from different perspective
Guys, please stop pushing masterworks. Most investment professionals agree that it's very scummy.
Please do a video on the Afghanistan conflict
Keep seeing videos proclaiming that this and so countries economy is collapsing or crashing. Economies can go for a long time before they completely halt and often there are revolts before this actually happens. Predicting the breaking points will be challenging.
We know how they cope now but will you make a video about how they seethe and mald?
Babe! Wake up! The new Kings and Generals just dropped!
Hats off to Kings and Generals for remaining a reliable source of information and insight unlike multiple other Western-based channels after the war on Ukraine, and I must say that complimenting Mevedev for his dancing prowess while disregarding Zelensky's Piano skills, even if unfair, spiced up the video in the end.
Maybe next time they should include input from sources other than Ukrainian...considering how in Ukraine they are not allowed to speak against their government or express any pro-russian views.
It would also be helpful if you didn't vilify Russia...that way you can debate other side of the story instead of immediately dismissing it as propaganda.
Perun said something pretty fitting in his video about war economies. "War economies work until they don't."
Best example is Germany. Nazi Germany managed a war economy for years without any new foreign reserves coming in. At the start, every time the Germans conquered another country, they went into that country's central bank and took all the foreign reserves. That stopped after 1941
Masterworks is a known scam, please dont hurt your credibility in the name of a quick buck.
Masterworks is a con. Don't fall for it.
Russia being the most sanctioned country? Thought it was North Korea with the highest number
I'm amazed that the collapsing ruble wasn't brought up. The ruble has lost 40% of it's value in the last year.
Next video
@@KingsandGenerals Can you go into detail in that video, what policies the Russians used to control the ruble that caused it's value to skyrocket at the start of the war and how many of these policies are still in place as it's collapsing?
I’ve been told by someone high up in the Kremlin that Russia has decided to Drop the Z symbol, and are opting for the L
Lukashenko is the new Czar?
@@Edax_Royeaux he’s certainly Pulling Putins strings…
L ... from 'Losers'?
so wait, Russia has annexed the DPR and LPR as land but Ukraine is still footing the bill for it and suffering the economics? :\
A great video. Is there any chance you could join Nebula?
They should invite us, it is invitation only
Just putting sanctions in place ist not enough, one need a continuous effort to make them working. As always very stuff from K&G. Keep going guys!
Why, the mighty dollar versus the rooble 😂 my wonderful chums.
Its going to devolve into Gold and Grain shipments. Old school.
How do low interest rates help to control inflation? Would the opposite not be true?
We are watching history in the making
لطفاً زیر نویس فارسی هم اضافه کنید
Please add Persian subtitles for all videos
Maratha empire Shivaji history please make video
Keep interest rates low to combat inflation?
There are few incorrect things in the video
Firstly - Akhmetov's media empire wasn't nationalised. He closed it because Ukraine channel joining national TV marathon made it lose a lot of money because there were no advertisements
Second - Kagarlitsky is not a dissident. He was cooperating with FSB for a long time and now this finally backfired. Hope he rots in prison
Ukraine has help, Russia isn't coping
So sick of ads
You're doing a million dollar job. Keep it up. This is the way
Wars Swallow Gold Like A Pit In The Earth

Not a fan of the new editing style ... way too much happening on the screen and repition of what's being said in text format
More then nine years!
Feat. Perun? 😅
Edit: I love how you used the Masterworks ad break to sneak in class warfare 😂
I wish you'd avoiding terms like "shock doctrine neoliberalism", even though you might be in the ball park as to what is implied to some degree, this is a needlessly political viewpoint which hardly is subscribed to from the general audience. To articulate something more factual and neutrally charged shouldn't be too difficult. The fact that someone propagates this term does not mean its legitimate.
“Bio political imperialism” academics really take the piss. It’s just called imperialism mate
Can u make a vid on the pakistan afghanistan war of 1961
Recommendaing speculative assets in the arts is higly irresponsible. Its an extremely volatile and high risk environement and should not be partnered with. I am quite surprised that your team accepted them as a sponser.
Wait, did you just call 12% interest rate low? I fear what constitute high then.
Human short supply. Guns without men is war waste
Impoverishment and poverty! What a combo. The old 🥊 1-1 knockout
What effect would secondary sanctions have from the west on the west, on Russia and on other parties? Example they sanction countries who help Russia dodging sanctions...
probably the same like what happened to Syria where supporters of the country get sanctioned, nations just find loopholes through those sanctions or they simply find a way to help their economy regardless. It'll have an effect of course but it depends on the west if Ukraine matters enough over other countries. You don't want them to exactly fall to or rely on China too.
Ukraine gets a lot of financial help from EU , NATO and other countries like Japan for example while Russia is saving a lot of money by promising the conscripts a good paycheck and when they die their death is not even reported so they don't really have to pay as long as the solider is MIA and not KIA
reportedly quite a lot of ukrainian soldiers or mercenaries did not receive paychecks either, be it intentional or rampant corruption.
@@ZubaFixtrust me bro
@@ZubaFix
Reportedly by whom?
Lol, source: Trust the orc trolls.
🤺🤷😂
@@ZubaFixand yet they keep fighting and taking back more land?
Instead of, you know, marching on Kyiv to make demands?
**like Wagner literally did to Russia not even 2 months ago?**
Ukraine has actually increased their tax income and also the number of millionaires has increased by a significant margin during the war. It's not really an indicator of economic growth but more of a "wave of patriotism" as people have actually started filing their taxes properly. Pre-war economic figures for Ukraine were always affected by a rather sizeable "shadow economy" that had persisted in the country due to corruption. This is actually good news.
And not to forget: enormous pilfering of western aid. Don’t forget Ukraine is still a corrupt country. Numerous reports of equipment “disappearing” on its way to the front. - it doesn’t mean they deserve an invasion though, nor that the aid should stop. Just that the aid is not as efficient as it could be.
Really....ya think the shadow economy gave itself up in this time of war and chaos, and ouy of patriotism started filing taxes? Lol.... if there are more billio airs, therr are also more destitute. War is a racket, and some are getting rich off it. Im sure the shadow economy is bigger than ever
Dude half of the country has left, Ukrainian rich has booked Turkish hotels everywhere and I'm talking about one country. And you're giving us hope that taxpayers has increased, I've a news for you "there are no taxes without economy"
"the number of millionaires had increased during the war" How? why?
the increase in tax, I could understand. but how did the amount of millionaire increases if half of the country is wrecked by war and the citizens are fleeing out of the country en masse (which means the rich and middle-class ones who can afford it would do it first) ?.
it doesnt make sense.
You should be performing in comedy shows with such conclusions😅
