‘You were given the choice between war and dishonour. You chose dishonour, and you will have war.’ – Winston Churchill
@Sir Airili They actually do, and they are voicing it here right on YouTube and other social media platforms. YOU chose not to listen to those opinions.
We pray for Ukraine..who needs a no fly Zone , Stop being afraid of this Bully.. Come on NATO get a backbone.
@Steven Torrey The context of the quote is Chamberlain’s appeasement policy towards another military power that was swallowing smaller countries one by one. If you can’t see a simple analogy here, I can’t help you much.
@Lagun And the Churchill quote is irrelevant and inappropriate in this context.
Just attacking another country is a crime. Lying to justify an attack is a crime.
@Prskalo je poput kise biden coward trump is the man who should be there this wouldn’t happen

What about Iraq, Somalia, Libya, Afghanistan, Panama to name a few?
The cowardice of this administration is God smacking.
The refuse to call Putin a war criminal and still allow Russian oil imports that fund these war crimes. Shame on you Biden administration shame on you.
You are no different than the previously corrupt administrations that do not stand up for freedom and only stand up for filling you pockets👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿
We pray for Ukraine..who needs a no fly Zone , Stop being afraid of this Bully.. Come on NATO get a backbone.

@Willy Julianto Power to Navalny, your Russian free press falls under Kremlin pressure, people can’t protest in your streets without going to jail, You are not free. Putin Russians are baby killers and Putin Russia will fail. It is a shame what you are doing, attack a country with no provocation is disgusting and immoral, We see who you are, keeping lying to yourself so you can sleep at night and you will not succeed.
Why not apologize to the people of the Donbass region who were killed by the Ukrainians in the last eight years! Why do you believe in the Western media! Why! You people who have never seen the real situation are judging people here!
@Biden Sucks fu
RIP to all the bravest people who sacrificed their lives defending Ukraine 🇺🇦.

Russians` news are blocked. But…ordinary people should know the truth.
• In connection with the concern expressed by Emmanuel Macron about ensuring the safety of nuclear power plants on the territory of Ukraine, Vladimir Putin informed in detail about the provocation staged by Ukrainian radicals in the area of the Zaporozhye NPP with the involvement of a Ukrainian sabotage group.
On March 4, at about two o’clock in the morning, while patrolling the protected area adjacent to the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant, a mobile patrol of the Rosgvardiya was attacked by a Ukrainian sabotage group. Heavy small arms fire was opened on the servicemen of the Rosgvardiya from the windows of several floors of the training complex located outside the power plant. The firing points of the Ukrainian saboteurs in the building of the training complex were suppressed by the return fire of the Russian patrol. Leaving the building, a Ukrainian sabotage group set fire to the training building.
Putin said that attempts to blame the incident on Russian troops is an element of “cynical propaganda.” According to him, the physical and nuclear safety of the plant is now under the control of Russia. The Russian armed forces also control the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. All this is done in order to exclude the possibility of Ukrainian neo-Nazis or terrorists organizing provocations fraught with catastrophic consequences.
• Militants of the Ukrainian nationalist unit “Azov” shot a column of civilians trying to leave Mariupol along the humanitarian corridor of the M23 highway in the direction of Novoazovsk, provided by Russia. In Kharkiv and Sumy, as well as in the Volnovakha and Mariupol directions, nationalists are preventing the evacuation of civilians to safe places. Radicals threaten residents with physical violence, they have imposed a curfew, and mined exits from settlements. Ukrainian nationalists took the entire Ukrainian people hostage and use civilians as human shields. FAKE PATRIOTISM. FAKE HEROES.
• During the special operation, Russian troops received documents confirming the fact that Ukraine has created biological weapons components, confirming the participation of the United States in the development of Ukrainian bioweapons based on especially dangerous pathogens of plague, anthrax, tularemia, cholera and other deadly diseases.
The facts of the Kiev regime’s emergency cleanup of traces of a military biological program funded by the US Department of Defense implemented in Ukraine on the day of the start of Russia’s special military operation on February 24, 2022 were also revealed. In total, there were 11 biological laboratories on the territory of Ukraine. We remind you that the coronavirus epidemic began with a leak from one of these biological laboratories located in Wuhan.
• The special services of the United States and NATO countries called Russians who cooperate with Russian diplomats for “some conversations.” In some NATO countries – the United States, Poland, the Baltic states – including the special services of these countries called for some conversations, approached at airports, found out the list of contacts of people who interacted on an absolutely normal open basis with our diplomats.
Also, the special services put pressure on Russian people living abroad and residents of Russia who conduct business or have non-mobility in Europe and other US-controlled countries or deposits in Western or American banks. They are being blackmailed and urged to speak out against Russia.
What can we say about ordinary people, when many countries are now under pressure.
Bribery and blackmail are a favorite means of the American special services.
• About half of the gold and foreign exchange reserves of the Central Bank of Russia, which is more than $ 140 billion, have been sanctioned and blocked in Western countries — these are the estimates of EU officials. These funds were placed in European and American securities. Western states refused to fulfill their financial obligations to Russia. In particular, they froze money and bonds from the gold and foreign exchange reserves of the Russian Federation. Why do you block our money? Are you just thieves?
The massive hypocrisy of the USA and west by allowing Israel to commit war crimes daily against Palestinians yet are doing backflips about Russia on Ukraine 🤦🏻♂️. Disgusting
Joe Biden wasn’t even in office a year before he got us involved in another Clinton/Bush/Obama war. Lesson: Neo-Libs are awful human beings.
I liked his answers earlier in the conflict but these all feel like non-answers. He might as well just have answered “we’re working on it,” to every question.
I get that NATO can’t make any committal moves in Ukraine and, as much as it sucks, I don’t disagree but that shouldn’t stop NATO allies from being firm and absolute in what they are capable of doing. What is happening is unjust, there is no way to spin that, and holding back on what is possible shouldn’t factor in.

Exactly putin is testing how far he can go and he wont stop unless nato talks more in his language. They need to firmly draw lines and threathen back thats what putin needs to hear. Its like knowing you can steal someones wallet and never be caught for it, a lot of people will do it and this is no different. This is putins mentality and the us and especially europe need to understand that and be more human like in their responses
Whilst all these politicians talk, people are dying. Whole families killed in the streets. All we hear is blah, blah, blah.
The term “war crimes” has always puzzled me. As far as I’m concerned war IS a crime. Defense is not a crime but offense is. No exceptions.
@Bebop Papadopoulos Oh Sure, France was so pissed that the allies invaded Normandy…. What were you saying about a shitty comparison?
Its a war, I think it can be assumed there are different perspectives. Most people accept that, YOU use it to muddy the waters.
@Bryan Which is why in my example I used both the invasion of Normandy AND the invasion of Iraq. Interesting you only point out one of those.
@Bebop Papadopoulos Fine, your Iraq comparison is shitty too.. happy?
I cant be expected to point out EVERY misguided statement that you make. Its a matter of volume/time.
@Bryan And you have 124 comments on this channel. Don’t use time or effort as your excuse not to go into to detail… you’ve clearly got plenty of both.
Finland: ‘I favor joining NATO’
Russia: ‘there will be military and political consequences’
Finland: ‘I’m even more in favor of joining NATO’
@mountain dweller They have co-operated with in different ways with NATO for decades such as renting out airstrips etc, that is not the same as becoming members. And it makes sense participating in an artic excercise considering their location.
Exactly
We pray for Ukraine..who needs a no fly Zone , Stop being afraid of this Bully.. Come on NATO get a backbone.
@Jessica Andersson Sure, i met a a few from AMF 1 when I served with the old NATO quick reaction force (ACE) on our winter deployments to Norway
@UKRAINE STRONG and Russia will throw Atom Bomb on Ukraine and and the rest in reply.
Condolences to all the families and friends who`ve lost loved ones in this horrible war.

@Yar Miller valid sources for this, please? IE Not misinformation but credible sources with validation.
@Yar Miller lying troll 👈
HE IS AN BRAVE MAN.
It’s not economic sanctions, it’s “special economic conditions”
its being a pariah in a global world, misbehave, and get scorched earth economic treatment, we have to live and build together, not invade a country cause you are embarrassed by the freedom of its people and its economic success
@Bimmer Fan Ukraine’s economic success?🤣🤣🤣you’re serious? Ukraine is the poorest country in Europe
Russia: I take your country and people
Finland: we will protect ourselves
Russia: you are being unreasonable
The little boy walking by himself crying breaks my heart…
@WE THE PEOPLE’S NEWS No one is telling me how to think or what to feel. Not sure how you came to that conclusion.
Yeh lol, they’ve filmed it that way to make you feel a certain way. His family is probably 2 feet off camera. Not saying don’t have compassion, just be aware that these news outlets do manipulate.
@hans Don’t under estimate a lunatic. But with that said…I agree…call his bluff.
@Heosphoros But you don’t know that for sure…you are speculating.
@America The images do and they are purposely selected and edited. Some times they are even staged. What about the 10,000 the government of Ukraine killed over the past few years though they signed a cease fire agreement. Do those break your heart too? I know CNN didn’t show you those funny how that works. Doesn’t make them any less dead though. There is more to this than those reading off a script given to them by their masters are showing you.
the moment they invaded they were committing war crimes … everything they have done since is the same as Japan’s “day in infamy” …. an unannounced, cowardly attack on both military and civilian targets on a non-belligerent neighbour/country
Like George W Bush too. He needs to be held accountable!
This is nice war crimes start with US then Israel.
You got this right .
My heart broke for the child crying walking alone
This is horrible,My heart goes out to the civilians!!!😭💔🇺🇦🙏

Fantastic quote! Ima use it
Republicans would have Exxon Mobile
wow that guy managed to not confirm anything the reporter asked by replying to questions not asked.
He is trying his level best not escalate the situation further. It cannot be that he is quoted out of context later
“Are they committing war crimes?”
“No worries, we’re documenting everything.”
7:06 This poor little guy is making the case all by himself. Heartbreaking.
