    Giving Ukraine everything it needs to win this war and Ukrainian integration into the EU and NATO is the west’s best self defense.
  • @Max-mm9xl
    Western should help Ukraine much more!!!🇺🇦

    Tell that to the spineless politicians that. They seem to find excuses left and right for not sending the promised F16's.

    The West needs to find a way to reach deep into Russia and tell the Russian people what Putin is doing to their sons, brothers, and father's that are never coming home!

    Putin loves Gas and Oil and Ukraine is sitting on massive reserves ( recently discovered ) and one of the main areas is under Bakhmut hence his determination to hold that area hoping a new border agreement would leave him with the mineral rites , likewise Snake Island was a target for the same reason. So many lives lost and maimed for Putin's greed.

    32:35 It's our ability to process rare earth metals cost effectively. The fact China has been willing to do a great deal of environmental damage and workers health to maintain dominance.

    An isolated leader of a country sacking Generals and lying to the people as the economy falls apart was 1945 Germany aswell. :face-orange-raised-eyebrow::face-orange-raised-eyebrow::face-orange-raised-eyebrow::face-orange-raised-eyebrow::face-orange-raised-eyebrow::face-orange-raised-eyebrow:

    This wasc shown at the same time that Ukraine admitted to a strategic loss. The non-Ukrainian leader always says they want to recover all Ukrainian land (to give to Black Rock). Best way is to go forward not backwards. But best of all is to save lives

    I remember when Ronald Reagan spoke of introducing the 'Star Wars' defence programme. Maybe it was a bluff but it was one of the major factors contributing to the demise of the Soviet Union. The Soviets realised they were too weak to compete with America in another round of the arms race. I am sure if America now said we are going to step up our aid massively to Ukraine in a real show show of force and determination, Russia would be forced to backdown and pull out of Ukraine and this horrific, criminal war of aggression would be over in very short order. The only thing Russia will ever understand is strength and a fist to the face.

    I like listening to this general. His views and arguments really interesting and making a lot of sense.
