I like this guy. He speaks the truth.
@Blackdiamond
And your not a fake 🤡 that’s for sure.
Propaganda CNN🥱
Given his once privileged position within putins mafia outfit I can’t help but feel an element of sour grapes here.
Middle-aged men, barely able to hold a rifle and then sent off to the frontline with a day’s training or less. Russia’s contempt for its own citizens/soldiers is unbelievable.
@Michael Bassano 🤦♂️
@Phillip Jacobson and then they head out to train further in their MLS’s so it’s extensive training.
@eggs panda Russians rarely smile. I used to work for, getting him to laugh was like pulling teeth. 😂😂😂
@Tom Sexton umm all righty then…
BRAVO!!!!
Putin’s dream of reestablishing the Soviet Union appears to be a catastrophic failure.
Why don’t you keep your sarcastic comments to yourself.You are not contribution anything . . . even less than I am contributing by calling you out on this.
Idk if he wants a new USSR or a new Russian Empire.
@mary shaffer everything?

So many will be dancing 💃

This is why we here in the US have Trumpistas.
@BuIIetBiII 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂, i have seen this comment on numerous comment section
Something trump supporters need to read!
Have to agree with Voltaire; We have a current example – Trump and Jan 6 insurrectionists; And historically – I can think of Mohammad and early Muslims

Read what he says about Russian failure to resist tyranny. Of course he is not representative of Russian culture which is why the “real” Russians sent him to Gulag along with millions who didn’t come back…
Trump’s little “genius” is getting clowned on the battlefield.🤣😂
Whoever is called “a genius” by Trump well….is hardly a genius to begin with.
@VICTORY AND FREEDOM fools die for want of wisdom.
@P G Why would Putin install a madman at the head of a country that has 2000 nuclear missiles pointed at Russia?
The sad irony is that no one threatened Russia. This is a disaster of its own making!
🇺🇸🇺🇦🇺🇸
@mark chisnall Do you know what a Coup is force is exactly what it is .
@mark chisnall Ah corruption right you are !
@SilverSurfer yes no one threatened russia

@sinnieleeonUtube hey why are you not mobilized in Ukraine yet? Oh that’s right you ran away from the draft
@Jean m What a stupid assumption ?? I’m neither Russian nor Ukrainian.
His wardrobe is made up entirely of green T shirts, surely he has more than one colour.
Listen to everything he said. Putin looks at politicians that want to negotiate as Weak
Weakness makes Bully’s more aggressive
Yes. Point made currently by our leniency here in America- unacceptable tfg and minions ongoing behavior= Must Stop Now!!
What is that is exactly what you want? You want the bully to think that he is stronger than he is. So that when he strikes you are justified in beating him senseless.
That’s why I’ve been aggressive since day1
Nah, weakness makes for a Democrat.
After watching the documentary about Ukraine’s 2014 revolution unarmed protesters vs armed soldiers. I knew Putin could not overcome the free people of Ukraine.
Ukraine you are on the right side of history.
@Matthew Matthew it’s freedom fighters vs soldiers that don’t know why they are there. History has shown that is a losing equation.
Are you referring to Maidan? Organised and paid for by you know who?
@Donnie Kraus really? Ae you referring to the time when they burned civillians live in Odessa? Sick sense of humour you have.
@Robert Lee game ?
@DevInDenver 23 The world will never know
The very fact that the question is being asked makes Putin a valid target on behalf of all civilization itself.
The dark side is strong with that one.
oddly more countries around the planet are not in favor of america. Kinda funny that.
@C K I think that Putin will be taken out on the inside anyway without any foreign Governments action, it’s just a matter of time.
This oligarch says the decision by the Russian government to charge him with corruption was ”politically motivated” after he began promoting reforms. A more accurate way to look at it is that the other oligarchs are NOT charged with corruption for political reasons: their cooperation with and abetting of Putin.
@Игорь слава ВСУ!
Right. A clean blameless honest oligarch.
@Lorenz Cassidy or nowichock flavoured vodka
This is why it is called Russian roulette and Vladimir Putin knows it all too well.
Whoever offs that fool will be immortalized by the people and probably win a Nobel Peace Prize 😄
🤣🤣🤣
Really, this is no time for incertain prognostication ,it’s time for action and accountability 😎

Vladimir Putin consulted with a fortune teller. He asked:
“How long will I live?”
The psychic replied: “I cannot tell that but I do know you will die on a Ukrainian holiday.”
“Which holiday?” Putin asked.
“Whichever day you die will be an Ukrainian holiday.”
very funny.
🙌😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😆😂🤣🥰
Good one
Very much enjoy Fareed’s GPS. He asks good questions and hosts very knowledgeable folks. Almost never miss his shows.
Plus, after asking the pertinent question, he shuts up and lets his guest respond in full.
Bruce Lee once said, never underestimate your opponent. Hitler in 1944 felt what Putin feels right now, nervous and regrets. You can’t always get what you want.
Well said
Brilliant interview. Excellent questions and answers–very thought provoking, especially concerning likely short term and long term outcomes. Huge respect to Mikhail Khodorkovsky and Fareed Zakaria. I wouldn’t want to play chess against either of them.
слава советской армии!!

Really good interview. This man is risking his life by speaking out in his book and on TV. His most useful information is about how the other oligarchs are likely to take Russia’s continued failure in this illegal attack on Ukraine.
