Beyond promises: thirty years since the Budapest Memorandum
A group of distinguished experts explore the historical context of the Budapest Memorandum, the question of the efficacy of the security guarantees offered at the time, and consider what this legacy means for Ukraine’s security strategy, as well as the broader implications for global nuclear non-proliferation. 10 Dec 2024. Online.
On 5 December 1994, Ukraine, along with the US, the UK, and Russia, signed the Budapest Memorandum, a landmark agreement in which Ukraine agreed to relinquish its nuclear arsenal - the third-largest in the world - in exchange for security assurances and recognition of its sovereignty and borders. Thirty years later, amid ongoing Russian aggression, the Memorandum’s impact remains a subject of intense debate.

Due to nato morons escalation Russia has opened new Sumi and Harkov fronts to advance to Denper river to create wide buffer zone at north as created at south
Thank you MPT never to old to lean new things
Murder of Poles by Western Ukrainians in Galicia and Murder of Jews assisted by nationalistic Ukrainians in operation Reinhardt 1941 2 .Holocaust with bullet s .
There were tactical nuclear weapons on Ukrainian land that were not "controlled" by moscow, it was not just ICBM's. I really dislike the framing that it was all controlled by moscow. Ukraine could and should have their own nuclear weapons.

people have no idea how bad this was. The jewish holocaust is nothing compared to this, ive seen old videos from the 90s, a russian guard said the camps lined the river in that region "like beads on a necklace"
What great stories! Even Hitchens has an appearance. I want to see the film and everything else Andrea made asap.
Bravo Maestra !

The knowledge of those crimes against humanity need to be spread far and wide. I have known about it most of my life, but my voice is not strong enough to be heard.
gorgeous thighs
The real reason for this war was the foundation of Israel. Without all the carnage the Jewish bankers could never have founded a Jewish state
I got it. People in comments want to make Ukraine responsible for everything. Very convenient to beat the weakest, to make us the worst, because we overreacted sometimes and made bad decisions. Why don’t you blame Italy, for example? Or Slovakia? Why can’t I read anything about Hungary? Why don’t you remind Japan that it was nazzi ally from the beginning? Hypocrites. Yes, Ukrainians collaborated with Germans. For how long? Ukrainians killed Jews? Yes, so did the Poles and others. Are the Ukrainians the word because of Babyn Yar? So why than don’t you call the Poles like that? Let me remind you where the most “famous” camp was situated. Once again, hypocrites

The Tragedy of Ukraine by Nikolai Petro. Provides a much more balanced recent and 20th century history. Petro has no axe to grind or narrative to further.
Thanks.
So is this the "woke version" of history?
Another way to say it is that the Nazis needed a breadbasket. The Nazis needed rich farmland. And they wanted room to expand.
Thank you greatly for preparing this video❤ Also, from the bottom of my heart, I thank Prof. Finnin for his work on this topic
Thank you so much for telling true story about Ukraine.
Remember Bandera. 😁
Remember Pilsudskyi
@@ІринаМілошевськаThere was a voluntary political and military union of the Kingdom of Poland and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. There has never been anything called "Ukraine".
I love the logic: 1.5 million Kasachs died because of bad weather. But 4 million ukrainians died at same time COMPLETELY due to "Stalins Will" 😂
Xi Jinping and CCP do the same. They distorted Chinese history to fit their need. (CCP is not even Chinese. It was from Soviet.)

Mental gymnastics of the highest order.
If the Nazi Germany had only wanted Ukraine, well they had it. Why would they be fighting all the way in Stalingrad, St Petersburg, towards Moscow or any of that? They also needed oil. Romanian oil wasn't enough. They wanted Baku, too. If it hadn't been for the attempt to reach the Caspian oil, and the necessity for doing so, the Nazi Germany would have easily annexed Ukraine and then turtled against Moscow. They could have then slowly starved the Russians in the subsequent 20 years. Or there would have been a revolution again. It wasn't so much the Stalingrad that did Germans in. It was the hasty and necessary reach over the Caucasus for oil. Otherwise, they would have stopped after taking Rostov.
Let me just say no.

tHaNks dR jadE ! 😂 ‘King’s college indirectly invests £2.2 million in arms and defence and has increased its shares in the industry in recent years, despite its reputation for being Cambridge’s ‘progressive’ college, Varsity can reveal. Freedom of information requests showed the College’s £349m of assets to include shares in over fifty arms companies, held mostly via investments in a range of index tracker funds. As of March 2023, the college indirectly invested over £2,206,000 in companies like Lockheed Martin, Korea Aerospace, and BAE Systems.’
Very helpful on so many levels. Thank you!
Wonderful! I was inspired.
I started watching this yesterday and finished today, March 9, 2024. Very important topics. My father married my mother after he graduated from Officer Candidate School and while he was in tank school. He went off to fight in Italy and was wounded at Anzio. He survived the war. My parents began making a family. I was the second of four boys. Around the time that I was nine years old in the fourth grade, the impact of the war began to take its toll on our family. My father’s mental health deteriorated, he no longer worked, my mother who had a high school education had to figure out how to hold the family together. Daddy was in the mental section of a veterans hospital receiving electroshock therapy. As difficult as this was, it is incomparable to women veterans coming home. Excellent that this conversation is taking place. For my father, there were no conversations. We children were not told anything. Figuring out what to tell the children. How to talk to the children will be hard, but it must be done.
Thank you.
As I am a resident of the United States, I am unable to access the BBC conversation. Perhaps someone will find a way to upload it to TH-cam. Thank you all for this.
