Absolutely love the podcast. I listen to it daily for news and analysis on the war in Ukraine and for historical/political perspective. Listening from Linville Falls, located in the mountains of Western North Carolina, United States.
The French are behind the Poles and Germans and the Germans have many US soldiers. Hence France is protected. France also has nuclear weapons and is a big ally in terms of business for Russia. The French are just being d1cks. They want to prove they're important but they're not. South Africa had nuclear weapons too. And probably better ones than the French. We in central Europe and former Warsaw Pact will remember how France sees our existential interests and this will sour relations into the future. Oh and yes, give the French Se'y council seat to Japan.
Bit like with the german cowards ... " we got 2000 brilliantly engineeered tanks but ...... Oh La La .... would never actually conceive of them to be DEPLOYED anywhere " . Feiglinge
@@barbarcreighton6726 The Germans are not cowards. They will happily sh-t on Poland, the country they destroyed in 1939 way more than the Soviet Union, but it's business with Russia and China which is the German view.
I was thinking that myself. "Completely perverted" by the Russians - I would suggest that the perversion is on the part the Telegraph "reporters" Moreover, this reporting seems to be here only because there is no good news from the front.
@@markb8468 No, the western countries only mentioned that Russian may do. However, there has been no statement from the Russian government that they were going to nuke anyone. They did make the statement that if Russia (the country) was threaten by a foreign power they reserved the right to do so. This is also the stand of any country with a nuclear arsenal.
The difference between Stalin's USSR and the western allies is that Stalin would have enthusiastically joined Hitler in conquest and horrific crimes if only Hitler would have gone for that. The western allies never would have entertained anything like that. Also the 400,000+ trucks and 10s of thousands of tanks and other vehicles and aircraft sent to the USSR by the west turned Stalin's 19th century foot army into a mechanized force able to compete with German forces - if not for that the Germans would have ran circles around Soviet forces.
Hitler and Stalin started out as partners in splitting Poland. Only Hitler's treachery that later created his downfall kept Stalin from being his partner.
@@tubthump Stalin churned out thousands of tanks from factories that only existed because lend lease arms turned the tide in time to crank up indigenous production - The first ships full of arms left for the port of Murmansk only weeks after the German invasion of their former ally.

Excellent choice for today's guest speaker. Germany and France are absolutely vital as a center of continental gravity and insights into both populations views are fascinating.
Yes.... the Russian army is advancing forward ...nearly two kilometers in the past three months. Wow ! And they've only lost over 10K soldiers in doing so.
Slow but steady wins the race... Destruction of the Ukrainian military is one of the three primary objectives and that is exactly what has been happening over the last few months (hence the nervous panic in the west to dramatically escalate weapons transfers). - Russia has a far superior artillery fire rate of 10 times that of the Ukrainians: circa 60,000 rounds a day. With the obvious corresponding consequences...
Historically the Russians have never regarded the lives of their soldiers as important. After the war they memorialize and beat their chests in their cult of sacrifice. They have yet figured out how to stay out of needless wars.
Hopefully a greater Korean arms presence in Europe will rob France of some of their arms profits. And if the UK pulls out of airbus in favour of Boeing, then that will be a glorius moment for the French.
Natalia gave examples that show Russia becoming a totalitarian state. I will add another example mentioned by an exiled Russian journalist recently. In 2015 a couple had an FSB agent as a guest. They sent some pictures to their relations in Latvia and mentioned that fact. They have both been found guilty of divulging state secrets and sentenced to 12 and 13 years in a harsh prison.
Please cite the court case and names of these victims. Anecdotal stories without any citations are worse than the street gossip that it resembles, as it furthers the neocon bloodlust for world war by deepening the propagandistic mind formation of those who will become cannon fodder for the elite, as so many poor Ukrainians already have become.
Meanwhile...In announcing a spectacular failure of epic proportions, the IMF... yes that IMF.... forecasts an Expansion of the Russian Economy in 2023. .. the prospects are even better for 2024. While,..... according to the IMF... the uk is in a recession. ... with bleak prospects in 2024. ... lolzlolzlolzl.....

The French need to be more on board of team Ukraine their stance on it sounds disturbing to say the least. It must be their bougie lifestyle and can't be bothered with it.
France is behind Germany and Poland. Germany is full of Americans. France can be friendly with Russia and make good business with them. Ergo they care so little. We in central Europe need to remember this and in the future avoid doing business with France. We're already getting Korea to get a foothold in Europe for the arms industry. That will reduce the French arms exports. And I hope they lay off a good few French Putinistas.
Sad just by the likes and views on the video. Putin is at least half right so far. The West is going to lose interest in Ukraine even with fantastic coverage like this. I think what he fails to anticipate is that public interest and continued financial and military assistance will not falter. He will have to turn public opinion against Ukraine to accomplish that goal. Not likely to ever happen.
How pathetic does Sunak sound c/f the BoJo (and previously Truss) quote(s)? "Oooh, oooh, he's upset global energy markets! He's not playing by the rules! How dare he!" No moral condemnation of the aggression, the propaganda lies, the war crimes, no commitment to the vision of Ukraine as the next free Slavic democracy, to leading Europe in funding it, just some weak statement that global energy markets have been upset. It's terrible the power Putin was ceded over Western energy supplies, but markets and market participants adapt. Poland had foresight and built a LNG import terminal (& gassification plant, presumably) at Świnoujście (at least). Germany were caught out, but then moved to build three (?) LNG receiving terminals in quick order and global energy prices are reverting (slowly but steadily) to the norm. The Telegraph's view of Sunak's lack of commitment is told to us by the quote they chose.
100k Russian losses but no figure for Ukrainian losses. Russian mobilisation but no mention of Ukrainian mobilisations. Seems a bit one-sided. A bit of objectivity would improve your broadcast
"Stripping soldiers of thier weapons", let's spin it further, maybe the honour guard had to send all thier weapons to the front. Or maybe that Putin enjoys so much support that he does not have to worry about being attacked. Maybe it is not Putin but a body double hence no need to protect. Maybe if your "journalist" asked the Putin's press corp, she might have go an "official" answer. I like the spin answers better however.
Imagine mounting the guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington without their ceremonial arms. No; this was Putin and a Putin who is completely unwilling to take the slightest chance that someone will treat him as he has treated others who are no longer among the living.
Are u crazy Ukraine's the MOST TRANSPARENT about their losses..and the first to report! ruzzia just lies and says 'everything great success!' while literally leaving their masses of dead bodies in piles..
There are some but they are wild guesses. They're also wild guesses on the Russian losses. Some sources suggest that many Ukrainians are dying as a result of Wagner artillery coordinated with drones.
@@evolassunglasses4673 Small point but Ursula van de Leyen said Ukraine has lost 100,000 OFFICERS not TROOPS. She probably meant TROOPS, but then again she propably knew the correct word because she was Germany's defense minister (until she was kicked out)

Unfortunately it looks like the Ukrainians don't want to fight. In the month of January Ukraine issued 202,000 draft notices. However only 82,000 showed up or were arrested for training. I hope Dom and Francis do a show on the draft problems and associated low moral. Perhaps Dom and Francis could get together with other journalists and do something to boost moral in the Ukraine?
Yeah we don't want to look at unsavoury aspects of Ukrains situation, like conscription officers forcing old men and young boys into the backs of vans. Better to shine a light on Russia and see how we can spin things to look bad in Russia.
Morale not moral. Moral is a value of ethics, but morale is the fighting spirit. Ukrainians are fighting because if they weren't your Russian colleagues would have taken the whole country by now.
Leopard 1 tanks from 1960 with 105 mm guns will make great memorial sites all across Ukraine. Doubling the amount of ukrainians being trained to go back to Ukraine to be slaughtered by the most powerful ground army on the planet is nothing to be proud of..
Against a russian BMP it will work. A old T72 Version it will also work but i would not throw to not a newer T72 Version or more advanced Russian Tank.
I love how these guys talk about the myths of propagating heroism in the Soviet Union and then turn around and propogate the myth of the ghost of Kiev and other Ukrainian nonsense 😂 It seems facts don't matter for either side, but the hypocrisy flies right over the heads of the British
Both Russian and Ukrainian losses are w.a.g. Unfortunately, I think Ukrainian losses are probably dramatically underreported, given how badly things are going for them in the Solidar/Bakhmut area. It looks as if Ukraine needs more machine guns and soldiers on the front line, along with better combined drone and artillery use against Wagner, and better officers.
It's funny about Bakhmut, the Russians have been trying to take it for well over half a year, and there it still is. Wagner just hasn't been all that effective at anything other than turning Russian Prisoners into Russian Corpses.
@@dancahill9585 I wish that were true, but I am skeptical because Ukr. has gradually lost ground to Wagner for 4+ months and is about to lose the roads/rail/rivers/mines at Bakhmut/Soledar. Ukr. got Kherson and gained ground toward Izyum, but failed to prevent the Russians from escaping with most of their men and gear. We've been hearing for months that Ukr. was going to kill 3:1 Russians by resisting offensives and that Ukr. was waiting for the ground to freeze before using its own (hundreds of tanks per the Oryx site that all news outlets cited) tanks and making offensives, so why is Ukr. retreating from Wagner and is the ground frozen yet? Ukr. needs to be better than this; it doesn't help to make excuses or for UK/USA allies to lie to ourselves.
Especially when this reportage is about Ukraine. I suppose the English could not resist the dig. Maybe we shall see some xenophopic remarks about the other European countries soon - I am looking forward to it...
@@roll-outcommanders6520 why would the lady reporter, Anne-Elise Moutet, play a part in raising anti-French xenophobia when she's French? A British newspaper's blogging team reached out to an English-speaking French reporter to seek an explanation of the French establishment's mentality and why they think they can negotiate with Putin.
Actually British media are also stoking up anti germanism. We are looking for the bosom of America. And Germans are now starting to unravel the pipeline, the Media are attacking the Germans. All very amusing.

Omaha Beach. A place where thousands of real heroes gave their lives in the fight against fascism. These heroes, Americans and Englishmen, and their feat are forever inscribed in history. People won't forget them. But they were forgotten by Joe Biden, who supports the fascists who seized power in Ukraine, sending them American missiles and tanks to help them. Boris Johnson, who thanks Biden for helping the new fascists, also does not remember the names of the heroes. The memory of the heroes of the past, of their great sacrifice, is destroyed by Olaf Scholz, who sends German tanks with crosses to the war with Russia. Again... But people remember June 6, 1944. We all have to remember. If we want to live to see this day.

Appalling unconvincing spin by your Russian correspondent. RO far more plausible until he joins the spin.

I would like to thank the EU for the open borders idea. Putin and Biden love it. But they are not allies, scratching my head
Makes a change to crank up the old Franco-xenophobia when the Russo-xenophobia gets stale.
Especially when this reportage is about Ukraine. I suppose the English could not resist the dig. Maybe we shall see some xenophopic remarks about the other European countries soon - I am looking forward to it...
@@roll-outcommanders6520 The lady making this report is French. Why would she be Franco-xenophobic?
@@roverboat2503 Because it is the Telegraph not the reporter, silly.
@@roll-outcommanders6520 why would the lady reporter, Anne-Elise Moutet, play a part in raising anti-French xenophobia when she's French?
A British newspaper's blogging team reached out to an English-speaking French reporter to seek an explanation of the French establishment's mentality and why they think they can negotiate with Putin.
Actually British media are also stoking up anti germanism. We are looking for the bosom of America. And Germans are now starting to unravel the pipeline, the Media are attacking the Germans. All very amusing.

Cable news is loaded with that stuff, and Susan has no objection to that, just don't mention coof, or unknown virus from unspecified origin, or lady blue
Omaha Beach. A place where thousands of real heroes gave their lives in the fight against fascism. These heroes, Americans and Englishmen, and their feat are forever inscribed in history. People won't forget them. But they were forgotten by Joe Biden, who supports the fascists who seized power in Ukraine, sending them American missiles and tanks to help them. Boris Johnson, who thanks Biden for helping the new fascists, also does not remember the names of the heroes. The memory of the heroes of the past, of their great sacrifice, is destroyed by Olaf Scholz, who sends German tanks with crosses to the war with Russia. Again... But people remember June 6, 1944. We all have to remember. If we want to live to see this day.

What a load of hog wash. Read a book but please don’t ever write one.
Nonsense - but Putin will love it BTW FDR, Mussolini, and Stalin were known as the charismatic Collectivists before the war
Pretty bizarre post.
