It draws a comparison to the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, suggesting that Ukraine is facing a crisis of confidence while Russia grows more emboldened.Key points include:Western Diplomacy's Limitations: Western diplomats are seeking a favorable deal for Ukraine, but the speaker argues that such a deal does not exist.U.S. Stance Under Trump: Trump and his administration express frustration with Ukraine's leadership, with Trump stating it may be easier to negotiate with Russia. His team emphasizes the need for Ukraine to engage in negotiations rather than continuing a losing battle.Military Realities: The presentation claims Ukraine has suffered 30 months of losses despite receiving extensive Western military aid, making further support appear futile.Russia’s Resilience: Historical examples of Russian military endurance, including WWII, are cited to suggest that Russia will not stop until it achieves its objectives.Strategic Shift: The presentation argues that the West needs to recognize Russia’s determination and adjust its approach accordingly, instead of hoping for a Ukrainian military breakthrough.Overall, the presentation suggests that Ukraine is losing ground, Western efforts are ineffective, and Russia is poised to achieve its war goals through attrition and persistence.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The conversation features Matt Hoh, a former Marine and State Department official, who provides insights into the geopolitical dynamics at play.Key points include:Trump's Perspective on Ukraine-Russia Negotiations: President Trump suggests that negotiating with Russia may be easier than dealing with Ukraine, as Russia holds the upper hand militarily and strategically.Ukraine’s Reluctance to Negotiate: Hoh argues that the Ukrainian government has much to lose from a peace deal, as it risks losing its political power and financial support from the U.S. and Western allies. He compares this situation to the Afghan government’s reliance on U.S. aid.Financial and Industrial Interests: The discussion highlights the role of major financial institutions like BlackRock and the military-industrial complex, which have vested interests in prolonging the war to maintain lucrative contracts.Zelensky’s Missed Opportunity: The conversation criticizes Zelensky for not embracing a strategic minerals deal with the U.S., which could have solidified U.S. investment and support in Ukraine.Withholding U.S. Military Aid: The U.S. administration, under Trump, has paused military aid and intelligence sharing with Ukraine, a move described as a strategic warning to push Ukraine toward negotiations.Overall, the presentation portrays the Ukraine conflict as influenced not just by military factors but also by financial and political interests, with Trump’s administration seeking to push for a settlement while navigating complex geopolitical stakes.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

LIVE from Russia: War Correspondent Johnny Miller
The presentation features journalist Johnny Miller discussing his views on the Ukraine-Russia war, media censorship, and Western policies. He argues that advocating for peace between Europe and Russia has become controversial due to widespread political repression. Miller criticizes NATO and Western governments for fueling the war rather than pursuing diplomatic solutions. He believes Ukraine is losing the conflict and that European interests are suffering.Miller, who has reported from various war zones, initially covered the war from Kyiv but later moved to Russian-controlled territories. He claims that Western media suppresses perspectives that critique NATO's role in the war and that journalists who do so face persecution. Due to his reporting, he sought political asylum in Russia, fearing arrest if he returned to the UK.Miller asserts that Crimea and other Russian-controlled regions are largely pro-Russian and that many residents prefer stability over returning to Ukrainian rule. He describes Russia as a relatively free society despite Western portrayals of it as an authoritarian state. He also suggests that Ukraine will eventually have to cede territory to achieve peace. Lastly, he emphasizes the difficulty of finding work as a journalist promoting better relations with Russia, given the dominant Western media narrative.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Cold Truth: Europe Seeks War w/Russia, not Peace Lt Col Daniel Davis
The presentation argues that while Western leaders claim to seek a "just and lasting peace" in the Russia-Ukraine war, their actions—such as increasing military aid and pushing for massive defense spending—suggest they are preparing for a larger war with Russia. The speaker highlights a growing ideological divide between the West and Russia regarding what peace actually means.Key points include:European Union leaders, including Ursula von der Leyen, have proposed an €800 billion defense plan to "rearm Europe" and strengthen Ukraine.Western leaders, including French President Emmanuel Macron, frame Russia as an ongoing threat, justifying further military escalation.The West's definition of peace seems to involve weakening Russia while strengthening Ukraine, which may prolong the conflict rather than resolve it.Russian officials, including Sergey Lavrov, claim they seek an end to the war but blame the West for fueling the conflict.The speaker critiques Western policymakers for ignoring historical lessons about war, suggesting their strategy could lead to an unwinnable, catastrophic conflict.He compares the current situation to Cold War-era military buildups, warning that continued escalation increases the risk of global war, including nuclear conflict.Overall, the presentation is highly critical of Western policies, portraying them as unrealistic and dangerous, potentially leading to an avoidable and devastating war.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

How Long Can Ukraine Last - Without US Military Aid & Intel?
The presentation discusses the impact of the U.S. halting military aid and intelligence sharing with Ukraine, raising concerns about how long the Ukrainian army can hold out. It highlights that without American support, Ukraine’s military situation could deteriorate rapidly, with estimates suggesting that it could buckle within four months. However, the speaker argues that this might be overly optimistic due to the crucial role of morale in warfare.Former President Trump is portrayed as eager to end the war, viewing it as unwinnable and a distraction from larger geopolitical priorities. His administration has paused aid, and there are no plans to resume it. Trump has engaged in discussions with both Ukraine and Russia, signaling a push toward negotiations. Ukrainian President Zelensky initially resisted but later sent a letter suggesting readiness for talks. However, his subsequent public statements indicated continued reliance on European support and a commitment to military resistance, leading to doubts about his sincerity.The speaker contends that Russia, seeing Ukraine’s declining resources and morale, has no incentive to negotiate and is likely to press forward militarily. European nations are mentioned as continuing to support Ukraine, though their contributions have been inconsistent. The argument concludes that prolonging the conflict without a viable path to victory only results in unnecessary casualties and that Ukraine should recognize when to negotiate rather than persist in a losing battle.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
