Nice to see some people with the psychological depth in reporting on this issue. I completely agree with this entire approach of thinking. We are up against the works of one brain and that brain has the power to annihilate humanity. A lot of times on this planet someone clicks and causes some casualties but the worst is when someone gets hold of some AR15 automatic rifle and walks into a school and shoots kids. If Putin clicks, it's not one AR15 that will be available to him but enough missiles to wipe out humanity multiple times. This scenario we can not afford. Let Putin get away with some negotiated deal, even it's not morally right, and some day he will be dead anyway and a more sane leader will take his role. He can lie through his controlled media to the Russians right now but some day they will know the truth and understand. Germans of today are not defending Hitler and likewise Russians will not defend Putin either eventually.
Thank you for making these videos!
@@Conservator. My pleasure and thank you!
Love the vid.
This may sound flippent, but the Album
'In the Court of the Crimson king'
by King Crimson fits this moment and
Putin to a tee.
Recorded 53 years ago.
Well worth a listen, or at least a reading
of the lyrics.
Thanks.
@@markrymanowski719 thank you I will be listening !!
I'm watching this 7 months after the video was made and this war is not showing any real signs of nearing an end. I have watched and read many other commentators on the conflict and this is the most insightful analysis I've come across so far. Thanks
I am so grateful that John Campbell introduced you to his many subscribers. You have a unique voice that has improved my understanding of the crisis in Ukraine and and Putin’s twisted perspective. Thank you! 💕
Same! Plus, I love music so with this and Vlad's videos on M.E., I feel so blessed to watch them ❤
Claire it's my pleasure! I wish we had better things to talk about on Sunday than out of control authoritarians!
Same here.

@@ellie698 Ellie thank you!
Yeah. Fear. That's what I'm feeling living in Russia. And the isolating sort of one, where every person, even your loved one, could report you to the authorities for saying a wrong word or not supporting the government's actions.
And even scarier is the thing that I don't see a light. It doesn't seem like I will be happy in my lifetime.
I don't see an exit for the people or for me personally.
Don't give up. Your people may yet get a chance to destroy the Kremlin and putin and replace with a democratic representative.
Better come to Ireland. You'd be welcome.
@@richardmoloney689 Is there a way? Maybe some kind of program? Thank you
@@strangecitizen If you're serious, you try to get to any EEA/EU country, thence to Ireland. Political refugee status. I hope you get to Ireland.
Britain put out an announcement that Russians would be welcome. You should claim asylum and get out before Borders close.
I'm so grateful to you Vlad for being such a precious guide in this vicious times. Thank you so much!
My pleasure, I tried to cram in a lot of education content into a sensational topic!
@@VladVexler man I hope this is right because Putin needs to go to jail.
I'm watching this on May 11, and some of Mr Vexler's analysis sheds a lot of light on what has happened in the two months since he said those things. He explains and describes with wonderful clarity and precision, too. Very glad I found this channel.
Thank you Matt!
Absolutely superb commentary on the current situation. I'm Irish, my wife is Russian. My wife refused to watch European news during the first week of the invasion and went back to Moscow where she is now feeling comfortable within the propaganda bubble which she has been willingly subjected to for the last few years.
I am so sorry to hear this.
Sad.
Don’t expect her back anytime soon. I know the mentality. I’m sorry it caused you pain.
Sorry mate
Goodness, 2 more victims of Putin. I'm sorry.
John Campbell did everyone a favour by expanding your audience. There is a lot more to be done as you deserve an audience at least in the hundreds of thousands.
Thank you so much!! The analysis of Russia on this channel - I feel it has filled a gap.
Yes you are absolutely right. You are looking at this through a different lens. The MSM has lots of retired generals and admirals who also can contribute an important perspective but people with your background and insight are very thin I the ground. Ideally someone like Amanpour will interview you so that your perspective gets shared with more people. So far, at least on English speaking media there is previous little on the various players in Putin's court, and you are the first I have heard mention their kids - which is an ignored vector of influence - as is Putin's own family. We need to think about the possibility of the use of chemical weapons. The false flag possibility, the reaction of defenders and of the Russian people if they are used on a Ukrainian city. Personally I can't see the wholesale use of chemical weapons as it would just be too disgusting, but I can see them as a terrorist weapon designed to have a terror impact way in excess of any impact. How would that go down with the Russian population? Another question is the idea of using Chechen and or Syrian mercenaries.
I know it's not your specialisation but do you have any thoughts on the use of tariffs (maybe characterised as a reparations tax ) instead of an oil embargo? The idea is that a tariff of say $50/ bll of Russian oil might end up being derived from the economic rent extracted by Russia, rather than just jack up the price of oil (and thus blow back in the west).
@@spiffingbooks8028 What if there was a 'tactical' chemical weapons strike on Russian troops ?
They could then be returned to Russia for treatment and rehabilitation and their experiences could be splashed across the news for the whole of Russia to see how they were attacked with chemical weapons ! This wouldn't be too difficult to implement since they are allowing their weapons and mortars to be taken by the Ukraine resistance.
@@ianc4901 Sadly I suspect this is one type of false flag operation that may well be being considered. Bringing it up at the UN may well be the precursor as pointed out (even) by the Albanian Ambassador to the UN. It would do a lot to sure up domestic support for the war and could also be used as potential pretext for China to come to Russia's aid and supply missiles and other things they are short of.
So many things to praise about your videos but the fact that you appear to speak in almost one single take without a fixed script (I’m sure you have notes) is something I respect greatly. I can tell you’re more interested in the material than the attention. Bravo.
Thanks so much!! I was used to public speaking, but not speaking to camera (I still use an iPhone).
Excellent analysis! Your channel is an excellent way to sift through the volume of media to better understand this situation. Thanks for your good work!
My pleasure.
Hilarious trolling
Bring back the Romanovs.
Thanks for another thoughtful and educational analysis. By the way I also appreciate the extra work you have been putting into the production quality. The videos seem more fluent as a result, you are presenting these complex ideas just as lucidly as before but they move faster it seems. Anyway, you're doing great and valuable work, we all appreciate it very much.
Thank you so much for saying this. I really appreciate it and still have much to learn!
@@VladVexler 100% Great job!
@@FindLiberty thank you!
I am Canadian. While I do not speak for all Canadians, I personally was never taught about the Soviet Union or Russia. The only time they talked about Russia was in seventh-grade history when it was about Natives crossing over to Canada. I am glad I found your channel to learn more about the past, present, and future.
Indians
@@hoodatdondar2664 Yes, we have way too many Indians here.
"Couch wars.." Excellent phrase!
I appreciate you stratified the groups of objections. It helps us understand and predict what groups will do in reaction to the coming events (financial strain vs moral outcry).
You are brilliant in painting the big picture for anyone who struggles to understand what is actually going on in Russia. Thank you!
This whole series is amazing. Many thanks for all your hard work!
Thank you so much Rebecca!
Vlad, I've thought many times recently about the situation with Russia, more often than not coming to many of the same conclusions. Personally, I think you are bang on the money in everything I have so far viewed on your channel. You have a great talent for this kind of analysis and deliver your conclusions in a clear and convincing manner. If only you were advising our government at the moment because I believe they are desperately in need of somebody with your insight and common sense. Please keep on publishing these videos. We need calm, measured analytical content on this subject more than ever just lately. All the best to you and thank you for your time and trouble in creating and running this excellent channel.
Same here. Have followed the rise of Putin from the beginning. Am 61 years old, had grandparents and my mother that were under the Nazi's in France. I started seeing a long time ago all the things leading to many of these events. Learned many inside information from your videos. Joining the dots ...I remember a Russian writer living in France...that talked about how Putin mimics people he engaged in. Thought that was super interesting....I can't remember his name right now. He had an excellent analysis of Putin....joining many of your information. Please continue the information and videos. Enjoy them really very much ..
Thank you for your views to help us understand where all of this is coming from and how it might pan out.
My pleasure my pleasure my pleasure!
Amazing insight, thx. In a world that more and more confuses information with opinion your channel keeps making sense :) And what terrifying times are these… Keep up with the awesome work !
Thanks so much. I am using a controversial title to cram in lots of insight about authoritarianism, Russia, and politics!
It’s a pity if not tragic even what’s going on. It seems the west is on a gung-ho about this… No strategy just intellectually deficient politics in soap opera style increments :) keep it up and thank you!
@@Noneatall246 what would you do differently?
@@michellebrown4903 Try deescalate. The rhetoric used by western media first and now our politicians is 5th grade posturing/ bashing. Keep the red lines but come across as trying to understand both sides because we also have given Russia many opportunities to see invasion of other countries as a way into a problem and our record speaks for itself…
Unfortunately Putin has decided to move in and with it will come consequences. Maybe this decision by him is what Russia needed to finally get rid of Putin. He’s doing pretty badly after all… Regardless of what happens with Putin going or not the cat is out of the bag and with it many more opportunities to effectively deal with his regime in a safer way for the whole world. At the moment it’s extremely dangerous to proceed this way if not at all too late already.
In any case, doing everything to keep nuclear Armageddon off the menu.
Anyway just my two cents..
@@VladVexler Controversial but surely on the mind of many governments around the world. This is the sort of analysis Ronin Farrow warned wS being lost from the US state department. People who knew likely implications and effects of what can be seen happening. And what you say us still valid in July 2022
Crikey. Ive just watched several hours of you back to back. What a great channel. Ive been hoovering everything i can on the Ukraine situation for months, and this is gold standard.
Thank you again Vlad - here's to hoping the change does happen. Hope you have a good day 🖤
Thank you!!
Thank you. Mr. Vexler -- this is all so scary, and I don't feel that I can trust the news. I'm very grateful for your effort.
My pleasure.
Very interesting, thanks for the update, always look forward to your videos 👌
Thank YOU!
Great Vid Vlad, scary as the situation is, better to be informed. 🙏 😣
Thanks so much!
great insight, really enjoying this
I think it is important to look at the situation from as many angles as possible-to think outside the proverbial box. Vlad's vid on Russia insane wars is excellent. Thank you for this perspective.
Pleasure!
A very nuanced analysis. I'm not an expert on Russia, but there seems to be a lot of common sense here. This is unfortunate for everybody as this paints a grim view of the future. As someone who doesn't want to live in a grimdark future, I hope you are wrong while cynically fearing you to be correct.
Hope to be wrong
"A very nuanced analysis" Hahaha!
Good observations. Vlad has a keen eye to see behind the curtains and this channel deserves a lot more views.
Great job Vlad. I just hope we're still around to be able to
study this (sub-chapter of other global events) 03:42.
Many many thanks to this informative analysis Vlad!
Heather dear thank you!
i personally don't see this end well. He has had years to prepare his inner circle at all essential positions. I feel sorry for the Ukrainians and the Russian citizens, they are the victims of the King Putin.
The odds of a coup are small, but for the first time in Putin's reign real! I am of course heavily leaning on the topic as an excuse to educate the audience about Russia, authoritarianism - and subtly, what it means for us here to sustain our democracies.
@@VladVexler I do really appreciate your input about Russia. It's analitical and I feel it's also right to the point. Keep creating more videos on the topic. You're one of the few sources that offer objective information.
Vlad your interpretation of current events in Russia is persuasive and your expressiveness makes your narrative even more effective.
Entertainment and wisdom don't usually go together.
Keep at it.
I like how if you keep following the recommended video at the end every time, you just go in a circle. well played!
Thank you so much for the detailed explanations of the mindset behind Russian societal mechanisms. It would be interesting to study the people who have fled Russia's forced conscription, to see how long they need to accept that they've been manipulated by a conman.
Loving your commentary - you have such deep thinking about what is going on in our world. I am Australian and as you can imagine my world here at home is so removed from Europe. I really really appreciate your channel.
Australia is a wonderful place to be now! Given the nuclear risk! Did you tell me in another comment where you are in Aus?
@@VladVexler I am in Melbourne so not quite as far south as you can get - but not far from it :) a lot of the time living here can feel isolated from the rest of the world which has its advantages and disadvantages- at the moment it definitely feels like an advantage :)
I just found your channel today and Iam astounded by your deep understanding of Russia, Putin and the current world situation.,,,Thank you
It’s my pleasure. I am in a way not talking about Putin at all, but about what it means to keep or lose a democracy, our crisis of trust etc
Came across you just an hour ago, you were in algorithm and you spoke the most sense, I'm now subbed and bingen your videos...thanks for you view, its a rare sight in this day and age
Thank you - and I am truly sorry that in so many ways people feel starved of quality discourse!
Excellent video! My take from it is that a coup against Putin is pretty unlikely, which is depressing. The only chance I see is that the Russian losses in Ukraine might become so extreme that a large proportion of the rank and file military just refuse to continue, whatever the coercion. In which case, the military campaign would collapse, leading to Putin being regarded as failure - and failed leaders in Russia are unlikely to survive for long,
How many losses will break the camel's back? Who knows. At the time of writing there are at *least* 60,000 Russian troops out of action (dead, wounded, captured, surrendered or deserted) - based on British intelligence estimates of 15,000 dead and an assumed 3:1 ratio of wounded to dead. The Ukrainian figures - 22,000 dead - would put the total figure of those troops now out of action at 88,000, but this is likely to be an exaggeration.
However, I suspect the Ukrainian figures to be somewhat more accurate than the British estimates, so if we split the difference, we arrive at 74,000 now out of action.
Certainly Putin is afraid of the Russian people knowing the true scale of losses, which is why almost news about these is suppressed in various ways inside Russia.
Best we can all do is make coup against our current governments. Because if Putin gets removed then our politicians will become dictators. Not all, but most of them. Our governments should have people who knows how to think with their head, they should be really educated and smart people. The one who understand both sides and are not pro eastern or pro western. The ones who want to make better life standars for their people. The ones who want to race in economy and not military equipment. Also there shouldn't be presidents because they seemike they have more power than government
@@luka1608 Your comment is nonsense. The situation in Ukraine is crystal clear: Putin's fascist gangster-regime has invaded an independent nation, caused mass destruction, murdered thousands of civilians, tortured many and committed mass-rapes. There will be no peace there until the Russian troops are defeated and thrown out.
Hopefully mothers and wives will protest in significant numbers ASAP.
I hope his over through is soon. One man is causing so much heartache.
You can see, the odds are against us here.
@@VladVexler Hi Vlad, when you say that the ‘odds are against us here’ do you mean the Russians or the West? Thanks
Thank you Vlad, greetings from Poland.
You’re so Informative. Maybe the most understandable when it comes to these subjects. I’m grateful to the amazing effort you put into your channel. ✨
Jane thank you!
In describing the reaction of "the 90%" of the Russian people he also described America during Vietnam.
In a way Russia's relationship with all of it's history is like the US relationship with Vietnam. A screwed up relationship one hasn't processed at all.
I could listen to you for hours...
Thank you so much!
That was fascinating and very informative! I'm going to check out your other vids.
Thank you!! I wish this video could be more optimistic.
@@VladVexler Sugarcoating the situation would be counterproductive. Your analysis is first-rate and greatly appreciated.
I am wondering, however, what influence foreign powers might have on Russia's trajectory and the fate of the world. Putin is clearly a threat to all living things. How does the world best deal with this paranoid & destructive head of state who has his fingers on the nuclear buttons?
You are good sir. A relief to listen to somebody who is on track with his personality. 🙏
A very good and interesting analysis!
Thanks so much!
Fantastic video's!. I would like to add an alternative thought though: not everything seems to follow logic. There's this inkling... here's a man fighting a 20th century war in the 21st century. As a result, I wouldn't be surprised if things go down the drain much quicker for Putin than our logic - however great - dictates.
Stumbled across your channel. Intelligent, logical - if scary - analysis. Subscribed. Thanks for your efforts in helping us through the minefield of information.
Oh my pleasure! And welcome!
you have a fantastic way of talking and an astonishingly accurate view of the situation... considering how long ago this was uploaded....
Thank you, glad it brought value.
Thank you Vlad.. once again, you widen my thinking with yet different and very interesting (and unique to me) perspectives.
My pleasure Michelle. I tried to use this topic as a way of getting people to think about authoritarianism, democracy, and what it means for things to be top down, or bottom up. All essential for us to sustain our own democracies!
Can’t believe Vlad only has this amount of subscribers come on people wake up and realise this guy is so smart and yet you don’t have to be an intellectual to grasp what he is saying , listen to this man and gain knowledge
Yet another rilliant video mate, top job!! You put things across really well and it's always very interesting to listen to.
Thank you!
Excellent and informative! Thank you Vlad!
My great pleasure!
Dear Vlad, your analysis are great and I can listen for hours to it. Make it more long form, an hour, two hours. You have so much to share. I also would like to hear your opinion about China in this and their (I think) opportunity to act as peacebroker. Now all communication lines to Putin are broken, should we put our hope on China. It could give them great PR (what they want) and they may be the last line of reason to Putin. What are your thoughts? Am I terribly naive?
I would like to vote for an hour-long discussion, too, please!
I disagree. Keep these videos the length you're doing now. You'll loose viewers if you if they get too long.
This is an excellent analysis of the issue, contrary to many Western analyses which declare Putin going nuts.
He is a bit, but that too needs to be explained. What’s not OK is the ‘he’s mad’ which stops thought and explanation.
This is excellent Vlad, thank you.
Thank you!!
Fantastic content. Thank you...
Excellent breakdown. You really seem to understand the lay of the Russian landscape
My pleasure. Lessons here for us in our democracies.
The video I was hoping you'd make. Very interesting, Vlad, thank you.
Any comment on the conclusion from the latest Mark Felton video, that Russia is now run by ex-KGB so it would be hard to remove him and you might not like who you get if you do.

Brilliant understanding & analysis ! I could not tear myself away from your videos...I only just discovered your site !
Thank you! There is also a second channel called Clips with original content.
Excellent video, two questions:
-what is the difference between today's Russians and 1917 Russians? What has to happen to get the population to similar emotions as 1917?
-if there is a regime change how the new regime can justify to the population? Especially if it happens after the 85% feels the pain of the sanctions?
Your answers are here! ruclips.net/video/ZFD1p4Oq7pE/видео.html

Excellent analysis. I wonder if Putin is ill ? Some neurologists in our local hospital thought he had a degenerative neurological condition based on what they saw of his behaviour. His body language sometimes suggests hopelessness. Is he dying? Might steroid use or illness explain the change in decision making along with the extreme lengths to avoid infection he goes to, if he has serious co-morbidities ?
If that is true, this is bad news. Dying people have nothing to lose....

Thank you so very much Vlad. I enjoy how you think.
Brilliant !!!!! Thank you, Vlad.
*New here* - watched the previous vid and this was an apt follow on. My hope is that there is a functioning, intelligent and autonomous chain of command between Putin and that red button. There was one during the Cuban missile crisis but regardless, ONE refusal to act on an 'illegal order' could spark a chain reaction - not a nuclear one but one that prevents planetary disaster, if not extinction. My hope is that that could embolden others to contain and isolate Putin, if emasculation and decapitation (metaphorically!) is not possible. The Chinese regime could play a significant part in this through back channels. Escalation is not in their immediate interests. I believe that they are a little embarrassed and irritated with Putin's misadventure and biting off more than he can chew. China's Xi is looking forward to the Centenary of the Chinese Communist Party, his anointment (confirmation?) as President for Life and to be recognised as a significant political, and not just economic, power on the global stage. China is strong on a long view and more prepared to bide its time. Putin in this context, is the errant younger cousin who is caught up in a bar brawl and pleading for help. They own the bar, possibly the brewery and don't welcome the publicity. It's bad for business.
I’d prefer non metaphorical!
There's most definitely a chain of command between him and nukes, and i'm pretty sure the whoever is qualified to operate a nuke is sane enough to know it should never be done.
I hope they get rid of him..
Only if some of the conditions fall into place . . .
Oh dear…6 months after this video…and you were right Vlad!! YOU WERE RIGHT VLAD!! I am watching many of your videos again. I am so grateful to you. Keep up the great work and THANK YOU!! I live in Latvija and the fear here is rising. How do you have such insight? Thank you again. And SLAVA UKRAINE 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦✌️✌️✌️✌️🌏🌏🌏
Thank you, Vlad.
Great work! Thx.
Thank you very much for the insights. You really bring some new thinking into the equation!
If ONLY we had such a thrilling and engaging history teacher at school!!!
The big wide eyes and the glorious cultured tones - replete with the precision rolled "R" s and the rich and voluptuous voiced fricatives - that's the "s" in "pleasure" to you and me - are a soundscape and delivery mechanism for the narrative as sumptuous as high Mediaeval embroidery👍❤🤣
As for the Byzantine intricacies of the Russian court - an entirely appropriate and fitting descriptor of the Politburo and truly as correct analogy as there ever was - we are led by the hand with broad strokes, as if viewing a tapestry. We can keep the full perspective in view, with just momentary pauses for a brief look at a small jewel of particular sparkle - in the form of an individual, department, or group - that illuminates the scene completely.
Mr Vexler, I am unsure of your story, but I love it! Almost as much as "Pikovaya Dama" - I'm sure Pushkin's is good, but I'm referring to Tchaikovsky's🤣🤣❤💃💃💃 Your (former) country really is as batshit crrrraaaazy as that demented opera 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣❤❤❤
I found your channel about 3 videos ago, Vlad. 'Really interesting to hear the clarity in your presentation. Also.... I was born in UK speaking English. My command of my own language is not as good as yours !
Excellent analysis with available info and very interesting.
Thank you for addressing my question from the previous video in the very beginning of the new one 🍻
Still want to discuss it with you Marko! The problem with evidence is that you need a picture of the regime that's accurate. I've done 4 videos on it, but I still don't think I have quite conveyed the picture. You basically have to taste it, or to be with people who have. Now of course the regime has changed so fast that things we said a few weeks ago are false. That two week gap between one kind of society and another is such a powerful lesson for Western democracies. How fast things slip.
@@VladVexler True, things can change rapidly these days. But more than this power dynamics, I'm more concerned about the large group of Russian population that bite onto the imperialistic/idealistic argument and get emotional and angry if challenged. These can include millions of Putin supporters regardless of what happens in the following weeks/months. Devouted followers, if you will, to use a religious terminology. Driven not by fear of Putin but by hate towards West.
@@markoslavicek I think the key technical challenge now, not my area, is to get good information to millions of Russians. The regime still haven’t shut RUclips because they are a bit concerned that may be too rapid and abrupt. 100 million Russians use RUclips.
Excellent! Appreciate your clarity.
Thank you!
This has aged well...
Now I have to binge all of your posts for context, timeline, etc.
I hope you're satisfied. 😁
Very informative, especially for those in the wider international community who are not as conversant with Russian politics and the zeitgeist.thankyou.
