You may want to stress that not a single former Soviet satellite state wants to get back to the old status quo and that all the new NATO members pushed into the alliance while there was time.
What about Belarus?
You might want to get in formed that the Russian speaking folks in those country want to be affiliated with Russia. None of those countries are much better off than they were under the USSR. They are all still relatively poor compared to the West.
They are under a dictatorship that need russia to survive what do u expect @@GenXerReacts
@@GenXerReactsI’ll guarantee you that Belarusians don’t want that either. They had HUGE protests against their current dictator, Potato King Lukashenka in 2020. Belarus obviously cracked down hard on the protesters. But yeah, they DON’T want to associate with Putlers ruZZia…
@@GenXerReacts Vlad's puppet.
Estonian here and I want to say that we wanted to be part of NATO. They INCLUDED us, accepted us. "Expanded" sounds wrong,
Yes, that's the difference. Nato is by alliance, neo Soviet is by force. Look at them, all have dictators.
@@bestopinion9257 And Warsaw pact was the only alliance to invade its own members when theyr tried to leave that "soviet paradise"
estonia is nothing you dont have an airforce or navy or tanks if russia invade you are done . or you think that nato will come to your aid ? you think we will die for such small and weak country with no value at all ?
@@timosthomo566 If nato does not defend Estonia, nato falls in Europe. This is Putin's hope. It depends who wins elections in US.
@@bestopinion9257and also on if Macron or his opponent hold up their end of the bargain. Germany too.
Russia can't even get thru Ukraine, what makes you think they'd risk NATO?
At this moment - they can not take NATO.
The question is: If NATO dose not change, will it be this way in the future?
Also: Should NATO start thinking about the Pacific? Personally, i think NATO should integrate Japan and South Korea and reform its treaty in a way, that it reflects that.
Putler!
I don't know what makes them think that, but what makes me believe that he will is both, History and the fact that we have a WEAK US president, Putin is taking advantage.
They couldn't defeat Ukraine in 2022 but they invaded anyway. They will keep risking until they're stopped.
Just like that, when Russia takes what it wants from Ukraine, everything will be fine, NATO is not interested in it.
I've a degree in B.S. and can tell you that Russia is full of it. Just like in the countries in S.A., corruption limits their influence.
Yeah the USA puppet mastering nato didn't have anything to do with it....... invilid
How wise you are 😂
That's what they want you to think
Wait, you can get degrees in it? Is this the setup for a lawyer joke?
Ukraine is near the top of the list on Most Corrupt Countries Index.
Important Note: The US/western powers didn't say "We won't station closer to Russia," they said they wouldn't station units in Eastern Germany after Germany reunified. Neither NATO, nor the USSR, were thinking that the Warsaw pact would dissolve within a few short years so the idea that they would even be considering this to be the deal is absurd.
NATO did not jump at the opportunity to expand - rather they basically declared they'd make it easier to join and the very second that most Warsaw Pact nations were freed from Russian influence they - and the majority of their populations - immediately demanded entry. FFS Poland was even planning on creating its own central-European defense treaty with other nearby nations to resist Russian invasion. Literally everybody wanted independence and NATO was the best way to guarantee Russia wouldn't invade you. Ukraine was one of those, by the way. They literally wrote NATO membership into their constitution at one point, they were so eager to get there.
The problem with this video is that it suggests that Russia, post-USSR, was or even could be a great power. It isn't, and it can't. Not for a very, very long time, at least. Russia lost its prestige and power when it could no longer subjugate nations to its will and has deluded itself into believing nothing has changed despite it being out-competed by *individual US states.*
Quite frankly the whole Ukraine situation is born from Putin lying to his people for so long that he genuinely believed his own lies when told right back to his face, then acted on those lies only to be hit with the cold reality that Russia is not, and will never be, the USSR again.
Putler can believe those lies because nobody will tell him the truth. It's impossible to make good decisions without Facts.
Thank you,. even Gorbachev confirmed that no such promises were made by NATO. It's ridiculous how this channel pushes Putins narrative.
Fantastic analysis. 👏🏻
And probably closer to the truth.
Add into the mix the recent arrests of high ranking military officials and the oligarchs losing money hand over fist.
Also pooootins economy looks shaky.
And prighozin’s son has taken control of Wagner, I would imagine he’d have some animosity towards poooty for killing his old man.
There’s unfinished business there as well, all these will conspire to give huge problems to daddy pooooty while he hides away, paranoid and scared of his own shadow.
Quite frankly, anyone who looks at OTAN and doesn't see a problem with it, scares me.
The great spy Putin , in 1985 started working to look out and report to the KREMLIN what's going on in the pact ((" Putin failed ")).
What people will forget is just how close they were to actually achieving a swift victory. It was both Ukrainian determination and Russian errors that we got to even see future improvements.
You’re not wrong. I worked as NATO trainer, and was in-country twice.
Most of us gave them 2 weeks max when the war started - they completely blew our expectations away.
But it is almost certain that without the level of corruption and incompetence in the Russian military, they could have easily been at the gates of Kyiv in 3 days, with most major operations wrapped up in 10-14 days.
Consider this: the US and allies had wiped the Iraqi army in 42 days AFTER travelling to the other side of the world… Russia is struggling. Big time. You don’t empty out the prisons, get second rate weapons from N Korea, or mobilize 30 k a month when you’re winning.
Nope we all watched the invasion.
It was a total cluster feck, because it was all based on everything going right, and very dodgy logistics.
America, would have won that.
Better intelligence, better command and control, better flexability in thinking, and better logistics.
Russia is now doing what they do best throwing lots of there poor at the front.
Please, remember for all of us, as we don't care, ok?
No we all watched the invasion.
But the Russians did fuck up.
There entire plan, was based on Ukriane folding.
When Ukraine did not fold, they had no idea what to do.
If it was America, they would have taken the country.
They understand command and control, flexability in thinking, and logistics.
The Russians are doing what they always fall back on, mobilizing the poor and chucking them at the front.
We watched the inavsion. Russia messed up.
There entire plan was based on Ukriane folding, but when Ukraine did not fold , they had no idea what to do next.
There logistcs was a total mess.
They do not have American nohow.
America is better at intelligence, command and control, flexability in thinking, and logistics.
Rusia is now doing what they always do, mobilize the poor and chuck them at the front.
Call it right way it was a pure form of colonialism, Russian occupation of Eastern Europe. People living in the USSR couldn't even go abroad and it was one big prison.
The Ukrainian government closed its borders to all male slaves on the first day of full-scale war. History repeats itself.
I guess prisoners sent first man into space then, lmao. Quit your delusions.
Something most of the people living in old western countries can not comprehend because it is beyond their imagination.

I see so many channels say Russia will close the Suwalki gap. Poland will just make it much wide and erase Kaliningrad in a would say, no more then a few hours. Suwalki gap becomes much wider.
Suwalki Gap was critical while Sweden was Neutral. Now with Finland part of NATO, driving from Helsinki to Petrograd, then south to Tallinn in Estonia becomes viable. And amphibious operations to supply the Baltic States also is an option, rendering the Gap a less than attractive target.
As a Lithuanian I would appreciate a wider border with Poland
@@john-9536 If Russia needs a buffer zone between NATO they can just pull the fuck back.
THey simply can't, in this case Poland has only words.
Krolewiec is being annexed into Poland next week.
This is based on the Will of the people living there. Suwałki gap is less significant since Sweden and Finland accession to NATO.
you are so wrong, all this comunism countries didnt been drag in to NATO by NATO plan to do it, as a citizen of one from this countries I remember it very well how it was, we been dreaming to be there, we been talking all the time that we want leave forced on as pacts with ussr, we want to join NATO so badly and finally we get there.

@@Patrick-el8zs Why would Russia invaded Bulgaria if it removed its troops from here in the first place Bulgarians are much more afraid of Turkish troops who can easily come here
- Russia's GDP is high because of the Russian state is pumping money into the economy. Russian civilian industries are losing their market shares to Chinese companies while they are forced to help the war effort producing military hardware. The moment the war ends Russia's economy is going to tank unless Russia will keep spending its large but limited reserves to buff its industry.
- China is not happy with Russia's invasion and much less the poor performance of the Russian military but like India they will happily accept cheap fuel.
- Russia has already become the weaker partner in trade with China. What Russia should instead fear is China wanting some of its former territories back.
- No, civ industry isn't losing market share
- China isn't happy with military solution, but is ok with conflict as it's just one piece in "West" losing it's grip globally. Military shoed rather good performance, showing how "west" doesn't have answers to dominate battlefield.
- Russia only gained influence, not only China, but but globally with countires tired of US cheating rules bullsht. There is no interest for China in hard-to-get and hard-to-develop Russian territories, there is MUCH more interest for them in East-Asia, it's damn obvious.
Dude, what's that nonsense?
China may invade Russia and Ukraine :p
Well, that is WHY Putin was talking with Bill Clinton of becalming a NATO member way back then but Clinton's boys turned him down.

@@tyllerboomgaarden7344 the only one who is laughing and cringing at the same time here is you. i've admitted that the author has to name it's content properly. nobody knows what's russia's TRUE MOTIVE here except putin. i don't know, you don't know, guy in the video doesn't know, biden, macron... nobody knows. it's author's thought and nothing more
There's no way, in an all out NATO/Russian war, would Nato allow themselves to get bottle-necked in that 60 mile stretch between Kaliningrad and Belarus. NATO would just take over Kaliningrad.
Even if Russian managed to block the Swalki gap the 3 Baltic states can still be supplied from Sweden and Finland.
It's Königsberg, not Kalinigrad.
Or should I say Królewic, since that city is Poland's problem now.
Now that Sweden has officially joined NATO, this is a speedbump in terms of naval and land power. Russia has no chance of retaining this land mass or its comparatively insignificant sea power.
Completely wrong, NATO expands because new states wish to join not the other way around.
maybe there a reason for new states are joining!
US simply bullies the states to join under threats and creating us vs them mentality. Its all about money, US has been involved in far more invasions in the last decade than russians in their whole existance as a state. Yet they are the bad guys. We killed 2 million Iraqies under the false premise of nuclear weapons that they never had. You want to say something even remotely as evil that russia did? Dont get swallowed by propoganda do your research.
@@aliendoggy1reason called "russia likes to behave like a cartoon villain"
NATO's expansion wasn't part of a NATO "plan"...when the USSR collapsed, there were debates over whether or not NATO was even needed. NATO doesn't really recruit new members...they didn't invite, say, Sweden or Finland to join. Yes, they built friendly relationships with them, but they left the question of NATO membership up to the nations involved.
The growth of NATO is a reflection of how Russia has treated its neighbors, not some infiltration plot by Western powers.
@@aliendoggy1Yup. And that reason is called: "we have the russians as neighbours" 😅
Talk Talk Talk and no answer to Putin's endgame 👎
It's not that NATO "had a plan" to include former Warsaw-bloc countries. These countries wanted NATO-membership. And they have every right to make their own choices, as does Ukraine.
Yes, they do have every right to join NATO.. but they also should be prepared to bear all the consequences of their choice, given that Russia considers that as a threat. Liberty comes not without a price to be paid.
@@user-hp1uj7pp3o And yet there is no consequence. No NATO country have ever been invaded by Russia and no NATO country have ever invaded Russia.
@@user-hp1uj7pp3o It is an excuse for Russa, It is not a threat. Blaming others for joining Nato is like blaming a victim for calling the police. Nato would never invade Russia. Nato stops Russia from invading her Nato member neigbors.
@@Blanka1100 unfortunately, this kind of belittling and ignoring Russia's concerns, and the continued beefing up of the NATO's club has led to tragic consequences. Many people have to die for freedom to do so.
@@user-hp1uj7pp3o Russia's concerns? You mean Russia's excuses to invade her neighbor? Putin hates Nato because he can invade non Nato Ukrane only. Russia has never been a friendly neighbor, wth or without Nato and never cared for Eastern Europeans, their concerns, their rights, their agenda so Russia herself must stop demanding and looking for excuses because Eastern Europe moves on long time ago, left Russsia behind and owes Russia nothing. If it was about Nato, why didn't he invade Poland. Lithuania or why didn't he care when Finalnd and Sweden joined? Because he wants Ukraine and Nato is simply another excuse. Ukraine is not even Nato member and had no chance to join, had no will to join before 2014. If Russia was a good neighbor, there would be no need to join. Putin wants Ukraine, he does not even consider it to be a real country. Nato has nothing to do with it.
Ruzzia now has more submarines than when they started the war on Ukraine. Be it they are a new modern type of sleeping seabed vessels that were formerly used for on-surface activities. 🤣
I never realized how much of a part China has played in the Russian invasion.
Because it isn't, China is largest trading partner with lots of countries not just Russia.
@@ruifenghuang1029 Its time to know what it led to.
Meeting with them right before pretty much speaks for itself.
it is not up to trump for the US to withdraw from NATO, it has to go through congress, which they definitely reject to do
No, but he could do what Charles DeGaulle did by saying that while we may choose to honor Article 5, we will not do so within the NATO combined command.
As far as I remember Russia help was the main reason why Germany lost the war. Twice a European power tried to invade Russia, and failed. Putin is aware of that. This days the treat comes in the form of NATO. Blackrock owns large parts of fertile Ukraine, and that is not a Russian amalgamate. We are the aggressors, he did not commit an act of ecological terrorism, by blowing the Nord Stream pipeline, Norway, Holland and Germany know who did but like the three monkeys say nothing. Putin has no interest in the rest of Europe. Russia is big enough as it is, but he will not accept the risk of a third invasion by any European country led by the US.
Trump will never come back, if so he have to stay in Russia, his homeland..Shit.

Ukraine need to get it's land back and isolate Russia until it pays for rebuild.
Come, help, or weakling?
Ukraine is Russia
There are so many biases in this presentation. Eastern Europe has not been admitted to nato. Russia is a tiny economy and chinas vasal. The security of Poland alls for Russian military withdrawal beyond the Urals.
NATO bombed South Eastern Europe without the consent of UN security council using deployed uranium bombs.
The USA can't leave NATO even with Trump as president. What Trump did is actually smart. He's made Europe imagine NATO without it, forcing Europe to take military spending seriously.
Bunch a nonsense since all he did was make sure the rats of nato paid their fair share to strengthen them. And god was he right. Bless you
He could have made the US leave NATO at anytime he wanted. He can't now because they put in a law forbidding a President from withdrawing from NATO. What he could instead is simply send all of our forces back home and only leave a small contingent.
@@TheRealBillBobThere isn’t any new Law. The Constitution isn’t new and the Constitution states that The President Alone does not determine treaties and alliances, that duty is with The Senate.
@@AdrianFahrenheitTepes There is a new law. It was passed back in December or November. Secondly, The President only needs the Senate to enter into a treaty, not to form alliances or agreements. And there is nothing in the Constitution that stops him from pulling out of Treaties by himself. Jesus, do some research and stop getting your education from RUclipsrs. 🙄🙄
No, what he did was making every country on the planet allied with the US realising the US is not reliable and that they should start their own nuclear weapons programs. Trump did the world a disfavour and pretty much made the US's strategy since WW2 turn to dust in a single speech.
It wasn't exactly only because of the dissolution of the USSR, it was also seeing Russia continually invading its neighbors that "NATO expanded". Which also requires those countries to *want* to join and apply to join of their own accord and how they feel about their safety by joining or not.
Its NATO motive not Russia motive.

Well put together, good information and beautiful scenery of cities. Much appreciated.
"As the only Russian port on the Baltic sea" ---> Russia has four ports on the Baltic Sea- St. Petersburg, Kaliningrad, Primorsk, and Ust-Luga.
RuZZia also has the most land on earth, and still, the generations will hate every one of it's citizen.
Primorsk is basically a suburb of Petrograd/Leningrad. So is Ust-Luga. Most people would count those ports as all part of the same complex.
@THORSEN907 lel nope
Not all ports can take and support military ships.
@@skywillfindyou The distance between Helsinki, Finland and Tallin, Estonia is only 50 miles (about 80km). That is easily within range of shore-based artillery. It is so easy to cut off Petrograd from the rest of the Baltic.
Ah, Putin. The Nazi hater that acts just like Nazis. How ironic
Correct!
Your absolutely right
I think it isn't fair to say Putin the president of Russia is a Nazi.
Comparison to Nazis: The comparison of any modern political figure to Nazis is a serious and contentious allegation. The term "Nazi" specifically refers to members of the National Socialist German Workers' Party, led by Adolf Hitler, responsible for the atrocities of World War II, including the Holocaust.
Understanding Putin's Actions: Vladimir Putin, the President of Russia, has been a polarizing figure on the international stage due to his policies and actions, particularly in relation to Ukraine, Crimea, and Syria. However, comparing his actions to those of the Nazis requires a clear examination of historical facts and contexts.
Historical Accuracy: While there are valid concerns about Putin's authoritarian tendencies and aggressive foreign policy, it's important to distinguish between modern geopolitical disputes and the systematic genocide and crimes against humanity committed by the Nazis during World War II.
NATO doesn't expand toward ruzzia. It's a defence organization that countries choose to join. Why? For defence against ruzzian aggression. Why should ruzzia have a problem with that? Answer: It limits ruzzia's invasion options... Ukraine being one of the few options left.
Agree totaly. Every country who runs by Undemocratic regime have no future alone, need spyes in all areas to find news...Poor China, poor Russia, etc.
and if Ukraine have joined nato , they would have installed military bases on Russia borders... so why Russia should allow this???
will the USA accept that china or russia build military base on its borders?
Why then nato didnt accept Russia when they asked? Probably nato already planner to invade Russia and rob all the resources
Why don't NATO and E U call it quits and keep supporting Ukraine?!😂
Russia doesn't see the US and Nato as agressors, but obstacles in invading other countries, this video on a general level makes several questionable claims and there are some factual errors as well
who does India ally with? russia china or the us?
Men who are NOT, display of there power like Putin.

05:58 Kaliningrad is not the only russian port on the baltic sea!
They also have St. Petersburg but Kaliningrad rarely freezes during winter. This is the main reason why the Russians annexed it after WW II.
Russia has a huge land mass but very little access to the oceans. All of it´s commercial ports can easily be blocked by foreign powers.
This is Russia´s worst strategic weakness.
@@hermes7587 With a more accurate point: "[...] a very little access to the oceans via warm sea ports." Not if the Russian Navy or the Soviet were that formidable or notable (if we take out all the blunders such as Tsushima and the trip of the Baltic Fleet there; the accident of the Kursk; or the Admiral Kuznetsov carrier, that tends to burn down regularly).
@@hermes7587 "This is Russia´s worst strategic weakness."
Russia's worst strategic weakness is the incompetence of it's military leaders. If you use soldiers like ammo, every war is more or less a loss.

@@skywillfindyou No, Ukraine need to be a member of NATO when Russia is thrown out of the country. Russia can become a territory and not a state.
A few years ago I talked to a Russian citizen. He tell me that Putin wanted all the territories that were once part of the Soviet Union and Alaska. Back then I didn't put to much credit in his words. Now I know he was absolutely right.
US cannot leave NATO without congressional approval.
US airpower would stop the Russians cold, NATO aircraft added would have 9 to 1 advantage
Possibly yes, but if that ever happens it would be then full nuclear shit. And no one wins then...
Indeed. It is said that the largest air force in the world in the US Air Force and the second largest Air Force is the US Navy. The US would wipe the floor with Russia in air power alone.
The Ukraine has shown how useless air power is in an environment that is saturated with AD weapons.
The Russian still have huge amounts of SAM systems.
@@hermes7587 The Russians don't have anything that can get a firing solution on an F22 or F35. This has been shown time and time again by Isreal.
With a country that only has 4th Gen fighters ( like Russia ) what you say is mostly accurate.
I don't know why that the world can't get along . I'm surprised that people in this world would bomb each other. We need to stop the destruction of the world and we need to get along. There is only one world and we need to save it.
It should be noted by Russia that the numbers game that it is playing in Ukraine would be tilted heavily in the US favor. The US population is more than two times the size of the Russian population and the US economy and production capacity is immeasurably larger than Russia's. The war of attrition scenario would be untenable for Russia against the US.
Yet
1) there is huge logictic gap for US to Ukraie compared to Russia
2) US only plans to increase it's ammo production, and this plan is still LESS then Russia already produce
3) When comparing economies one should consider what is real, physical economy. Russia has much more of it in economy by % compared to US, where stock market bubbles make many things to appear much more valuable then they are. But material-wise Russia is a able to produce a LOT. Think about USSR, how it was able to compete with all military production? Other republics then Russia? Look at them now, how much heavy industry is there? Not much. Role for this was Russia, so it still come to Russia.
@@skywillfindyou Yet, The US is second to none in logistics around the world. Economicly and manufacturing wise, Russia would ve absolutely stomped into the ground.
Russia primarily uses nuclear threats to deter the US. Why? Because if the US gave Ukraine everything it needed, Russia would lose the war.
You underestimate what the US is capable of in logistics. Russian command knows better and you can see it in the fear they show every time the US anouces a new aid package.
@@skywillfindyou the US is not at war. I think you can't even imagine the disparity of power between the US and the russia. Furthermore, US have powerful allies with advanved industries they could quickly convert to produce military equippement. The only chance the russia have is through its despecable "hybrid warfare".
@@skywillfindyou There isn't a huge logistics gap, and the fact that you believe that means you're completely uninformed about the absolutely staggering state of US logistics.
US doesn't need to increase its ammo production a significant amount because it, like most Western nations, just buys ammo from the countries that produce it more cheaply than it is to purchase.
Russia's economy is in shambles. It was buoyed by exports of, essentially, really basic materials that other countries refined into something useful. Now most of the nations it exports to are gone.
Meanwhile the US has uninterrupted trade, no restrictions on who it can trade with or what deal it can make, and has a vastly superior economy to the point where individual states produce more than Russia in its entirety.
As far as stock markets go? Russia prevented (perhaps still do) people from selling on the stock market so that it would remain stable. The government literally said "we can't have a bust or an economic downturn because you're not allowed the freedom to try to escape a sinking ship." When those people then said "well now we're massively in debt due to you," the Russian government said "that's fine, nobody will collect on the debt for a few years," which all just lead to their economy doing worse and worse as they prolong the inevitable. Russia busted several times (China too) - you just don't hear about it because they try to hide it by government fiat.
The USSR wasn't able to compete in military production, by the way. They effectively had the subjugated industries of a dozen countries they'd invaded working under them, producing as much as they like. Then it turned out they couldn't compete with the US in terms of aircraft so they instead opted for anti-aircraft measures instead - much cheaper. Even then they *still* bankrupted themselves trying to compete with the US. Just goes to show that a planned economy based around subjugating people isn't as efficient as just letting people do more or less what they want within regulations.
Honestly you should brush up on your history. Or stop taking jobs that require you to lie for Russia. Y'know, one or the other.
the fact that there is nukes makes all other aspects dont matter since if russia existence is threatened then they will use nukes and USA will respond with nukes and the world will end.
So if the USSR was a "Union this means the deal was struck with "all the members of that union" not Russia alone. When the union collapsed, the previous "members" who technically were as much part of the USSR as Russia, made the decision to join NATO and leave the previous corruption right? Russia has no claim to anything, if it was a "Union" of "republics".
There's not a snowballs in hell chance of Russia attacking NATO.
Eastern Europe is Belarus and Ukraine not Poland. Get the simple things right already.
Poland is eastern europe. Pretty much all countries that was behind the iron curtain are seen as "eastern" in Europe.
it is eastern-central. all terms of direction are relative. not sure why you felt the need to try nitpicking something so trivial
China and Russia claiming the US is the cause of instability. Let’s ask their neighbors about that one 😂😂😂
Seriously? Have you any idea of how many democratically elected governments America has overthrown, in the last 70 years, with either a economical or military coup …. Sanctions here weapons there, millions dead….for what exactly? Russia and China may again be a threat in the future, Merica is still a threat now
Who are their neighbors you want to ask? Cambodia? Vietnam? Laos? You aren't very bright

235 waryears of 248 years of its existence says all you need to know who is the real aggressor in this world.
NATO's expansion wasn't part of a NATO "plan"...when the USSR collapsed, there were debates over whether or not NATO was even needed. NATO doesn't really recruit new members...they didn't invite, say, Sweden or Finland to join. Yes, they built friendly relationships with them, but they left the question of NATO membership up to the nations involved.
The growth of NATO is a reflection of how Russia has treated its neighbors, not some infiltration plot by Western powers.
In 18:07 you accidentally changed the capitals of Poland and Estonia to each other
The present Russia is a terrorist-regime and with less than 144 mio inhabitant ( which will be under 133 in 2050) the country is no longer a "a great country".
If not for the nuclear weapons noone would even listing to Kreml.
In fact there a nearly the same number of people living in eastern Europe than there is in present Russia.
Russia today still houses more than 160 different kind of people.
Not all of them are kind of the present terrorregime in Kreml!
So it is necessary to stop the present aggression from Kreml once for all.
To accept the the nonsens of daydreams from the former KGB-officer Putin is bullshit.
So true!
Oh get over yourself.
@@jelena7440 Ivanka, be calm. You will soon be free from your dictator. There is a special bullet wearing his name.
Bit of a fairy tale that leads to more death. The first thing we loose in war is truth.
This could be a future proving ground for robotics.
I think your missing the fact that NATO at first didn't really want to incorporate any ex soviet states into itself, but had its hand forced by those ex soviet states which were doing everything in their power to join.
I mean Poland even threatened to make its own nukes if it wasn't allowed in, before undertaking a major political campaign to get into NATO.
Russia does not have the power to beat Ukraine 😂They make themselves sound stupid when threatening Nato 😂
NATO promised NOT to expand East??? 🤣 Can you show me a document, a treaty or an agreement that says that? You are repeating Kremlin BS here
Of course he does. NATO is per definition unable to reach agreements or make "promises" because it is not legitimate entity speaking or deciding for itself. It is not a country.
But even if it were possible: promises couldn't have been made to Russian Federation because RF didn't existed 1990. And promises made to USSR would be not valid because there is no such country anymore, We don't make promises to Ancient Rome or Byzantium because they don't exist. Like USSR.
And last but not least: even if we assume that Russia is a legal successor of USSR - so is Ukraine. And I don't think Ukraine has objections
At the time it was talked about. Thats it. No agreement and nothing official. Certainly nothing ever written down on paper.
Bringing something up in an discussion, is not the same as "making a promise" 😅.
Its complete BS on the part of the russians.
And how would that "promise" have even worked?
The Warsaw pact was still a thing at the time and NATO only gets new members through applications from said countries trying to join in the first place 🙈
At the 6:47 mark, the flags are mixed up. The top screen is Lithuania, while the bottom is Estonia.
And at 18:10, they are mixing up Estonia and Poland...
It would have been nice if the video had incorporated a discussion of the Budapest Memorandum where Ukraine gave up its nuclear weapons under promises of security from US, UK and Russia.
Ah Distorted truth. Combined with BS and lies.
On both sides probably! "defo ftomAdolf Putin.
Russia's end game is a neutral or puppet state between Russia and NATO.
That was their goal, but it is now beyond their grasp.
They still have Belarus and let's face it; Hungary is also in the Russia camp.
Belgorod People's Republic ✊️
@@omfug7148 Belarus only protects Russia from the Lithuania. Ukraine is a buffer from 4 NATO countries. And it would give Russia the pipelines.
If your country borders Russia neutrality is pure utopia. Russia would pay a visit to such a country sooner or later.
The scenario which is being outlined in this video is far beyond the Russian Federation's present abilities.
Let's make one thing clear - Sovereign Natation States request (ask) to join Nato and the EU. No other Nation has a veto on their acceptance other than those already in those two alliances & union.
To act like modern Russia and Putin - it would be acceptable for the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland to invade Eire (or The Republic of the nation of Ireland) once again), or many other independent Nation States.
Eire is Gaelic for Ireland, Its the Republic of Ireland (ROI) not whatever name u made up, ROI is in the EU so your point is mute. Overall a total pish take try again
Or - Russia and its allies want to place theirnukes on Cuba, for example. Theusa cannot stand in the way and say that it threatens their security. This is Cuba's right and will and this must be accepted! What about that?
When talking about majornuclearweapons countries, their security and red lines must also be accepted. How hard can it be to understand??
A stream of drivel from an AI video.
i didn't recognize the explanation regarding NATO expansion, I'll have to look into that.
There is no Nato expansion. Simply border countries always decides which part of the world they'd like to be: western or russian one. And yeah all chooses western because it means not being a colony. Nobody nudges them, the choise is clear and obvious in every particular case. Simply compare two neighboring countries Belarus and Lithuania. Where do you think it's better? Which of them has self determination and which is a puppet state where local dictator hugs russian nuclear warhead sleeps on russian money loans and keeping regime running with support of russian special forces?
21:20 You mixed up photos buddy hahhaha
Actually, you (guys in comments) should pay attention to Alexandr Dughin’s(he’s a main russia’s ideologist) book of 1997 “Foundations of Geopolitics”. I swear after reading it u will completely understand russian’s geopolitical strategy. The book “predicts”(or rather it’s not a prediction, but part of strategy)a war with Ukraine and future russia’s wars.
UPD: Yeah, this book is kind of “Mein Kampf” but russian.
No, it doesn't have anything in common with "mein kampf"
@@skywillfindyou yes, you know, nazi and national bolcheviks are the same
Russia: all former Warsaw pact states, should stop arming themselves..
Poland: NUKES, WE WANT NUKES!
Baltics: Poland, count us in!
As Pole, I wouldn’t be more glad when Russians are pissed.
Last almost 35 years, are longest period of Polish independence since 200 years, by whom we lost independence every time? Yup Russians.
We really like our independence, and we’ll defend it.
What independence are you talking about? You are a vassal and must fulfill the master's orders. If you don't believe me - try it! Do something your master doesn't like and then you'll see how much "Independence" you really have. It`s time to wake up!
I know this is a bit challenging but I don't believe Putin wanted to invade Ukraine at all. I think if the situation had been entirely up to him he much rather would have continued with Yanukovych exactly the way it was. I think that’s an important realization.
Love your stuff.

@@DacianRider They have *thousands* of nuclear ICBM's, although Putin would have to have approval from at least two other high Russian officials to initiate an actual launch. Personnel further down the chain of command at the nuclear missile bases may or may not follow orders to launch.

How about a new country of Konigsberg. Free of marxists or nazis, just a brand new country of free people?
They have political forces there trying to get ridd of Russia. If Russia fails in Ukraine it is possible they lose Köningsberg too.
Russia cant even advance in ukraine!! And their ground army is shot. Get real!!
I know they haven't taken much ground in the last six months . Very slow almost nothing .
Get real yourself. Whole Western world supplied, trained Ukraine. And it it came to the point where they STRUGGLE to provide help, they don't have that amout of production, they try to buy off everything they can form global military market for this.
And now Russia and Ukraine have most experienced armies for modern war, but Ukraine army is severely bled out.
How Russia managed with western forces combined there, mercenaries, tech, weapons... is rather amazing, they only made mistake at the begginning.
😂😂 u jest, surely u jest😂😂
Russia has advanced and is now winning the war after a bad start. Not a popular fact.
Nonsense
Its never Russia vs Ukraine
Its Russia vs NATO & U$
Then Putin allowed himself to be played with ?.
Poland actually blackmailed the US to get into NATO.
First
Do you want a star?
So how come Ukraine need more aid and lost over 600000 soldiers and nato are in Ukraine and Russia are winning
Anyone who thinks that a war can be won in two weeks has never actually fought a near peer conflict. ALL true wars last for no fewer than three.
Real question: How many lies fit in a sentence?
No actual war lasted less than two years. The idea from many that they can last a mere two to three months was blatantly ignorant of world history.
This is something that all european states neighbouring russia were saying for the last 30years: "there's nothing russia hates more than independent neighbors".
Mate they've been in Ukraine for two years, hardly a Blitzkrieg war, how long do you think it will take them to conquer Europe, a century?
According to The Telegraph, the UK mercenary, Harry Gregg, whom the former Prime Minister in 2022 sweet talked into fighting alongside the Ukrainian Armed Forces, committed suicide upon his return home - and a day after his birthday.
It is reported that Gregg was found dead hanged in his home.

Russia economy is expanding because of war footing. The gains will be short term and will cause long term problems as th3 goods being produced won’t be sold and instead destroyed. It’s diminishing returns in simple terms. Inflation will explode but not reported.

Superb reporting
BIG misconception at around 18:00 . A lot of countries did not shifted away from russia. They were forced into this alliance by decisions that were made at Yalta Conference in 1945. The events of the late 1980s and early 1990s were the moment when the Soviet Union weakened so much that it was unable to keep an eye on these countries.
This video has helped me understand the European/Russian current events. All the more REASON 4TRUMP!
13:20 If you through enormous amounts of money on your war industry, of course the economy growths.
This russ ukriane war can last forever since Russia is right on the border and even if they get kicked out they can return agian and make like a 20 mile buffer zone
