- "There's a certain amount of frustration in what we see in what Russia is doing with its troops. It's throwing manpower away."
Russia's increasing loses show the Kremlin's desperation as they fail to move the frontline ahead of US weapons arrival, Gen. Philip Breedlove tells Kate Gerbeau on Frontline.

Incredible guest, speaking decisively and not shying away from criticism of the NATO uninspired approach.
Thanks Times Radio ❤
NATO has no role in the conflict, not even in providing aid. ALL aid is country-to-country.
russia is poking The West everywhere and finding mush where they should be finding steel.
In the USA, Fox News has a built in audience of mush brains which putin and the Kremlin have molded into a crowd who distrust American institutions, American elections and the rule of law, the basis of FASCISM. Putin has trained these Americans to use violence to get what they want politically and former prez 45 to corrupt and control the judiciary in order to consolidate an authoritarian model.
This is fascism 101.
He is talking fact
Uhhh, Uk is not in NATO.
Yeah a fast track into WW3 not very wise in my opinion
The general speaks wisdom. Why are our leaders so weak
I grew up in an age of peace. The soldiers of ww2 were mostly dead, and the war was presented in comic-like movies where heroes don't get a single scratch. We have totally forgotten what war is.
Because they are waiting for people like you to volunteer
Profits to the military industrial complex, who hold the polyticians by their private parts.
Our leaders represent an amalgamation of interests, and the cruel fact is soaring rhetoric can get them votes, but that doesn't override the real security and economic interests. As you see the reactive nature of Washington there is no plan for Ukrainian victory. The simplest explanation is Ukraine is being used as a proxy to weaken Russia.
They believe putler to be psychotic and may just use a nuke. They're doing everything the can to escalate slowly and prevent that.
this retired general is talking a whole load of solid sense .
Really? There are hypersonic missiles on their way to Cuba that are going to be able to take out any base on the eastern US, so when Russia drops a tactical hammer, you then have to decide how to explain to the American people that we need to trade bases and cities for Ukraine. Russia is serious.
You know what? Cuba will have been down this path before and guess what....? Read your history books. The saying 'nothing lasts forever, not even one man's aggression against another and as with a certain leader who showed his aggression against others, there is a finality to all our actions and putin WITH his followers are going to be ridiculed and the finger pointing starts when whatever happens, happens. Judgement comes to us all. Some, much sooner than others
@@davidschlageter5962 8 Zirkon missiles nor 20 Zirkon missiles will not obligarate US capabilities and most of those missiles are conventional warheads. The second he launches a nuclear strike n America trust me the President will not rush to TV to explain to the people "we need to trade bases and cities for Ukraine". US will go to unrestricted war with that "serious Russia" and we will all die.
Putin will not use nuclear weapons unless he wants to govern a wasteland.
@@davidschlageter5962 the same hypersonics missles that russia shot into ukrain and got shot down. Cuba nor Russia is going to fight another war while thier whole army is in unkrain. JFC this the dumbest comment I seen in a long time lol

General Breedlove always lays it on the line. He was Ben Hodges' boss at one time. What a combination that must have been!

absolutely correct - fear as a weapon. we need to stop being afraid of each other and of bully tactics of intimidation. there is a way to fight against bullies, but being scared is not the one.
This is just ret@rded propaganda to keep people pro war. They dont know if we will be in a nuclear war or not, but theyre doing a lot to make sure we will.
Awesome interview! Kate and her distinguished guest share very interesting thoughts on the Ukraine war and more. I cannot help but totally agree with the gentleman on his theories. Make me teary eyed to hear his final opinion on NATO and Ukraine. Ukrainian people do not deserve this for attempting democracy. The West should be 100% behind them. Slava Ukraine!🎉🇺🇦🙏🇨🇦
Wow. Very strong words from General Breedlove, honest and true words. For sixteen years we have failed to react, respond, and each time the aggressor wins more and more. We have to put a solid stopping block, and it needs to be now. In Ukraine.
That's true. The US was always at war with some country for 88% of the time since WW2. It always intervenes in Europe, Latin America, Middle East, South Asia, East Asia.....

It's like complaining that we keep rebuilding after earthquakes and other natural disasters, instead of just giving up.

War is a part of cavemen DNA - you have that cavemen DNA - that's why you keep posting comments defending the cavemen.
You can't help it, just like we have no choice but fight against your cavemen DNA.
Hopefully someone in Washington will remember diplomacy can bear fruit, and agree to withdraw the offer of NATO membership. Unfortunately there are too many weapon sales on the line that the democratic leaders of the West will continue to ignore the majority of their populations that prefer a negotiated end to the war.

It's people like Breedlove and Ben Hodges that have me keep faith in the US there are still sane people over there.
What concerns me is when will the US start listening to them, if ever.
mention one thing that Hodges has been correct about during the past 2 years... absolutely nothing. Hodges is a delusional idiot.
More like the Europe needs to wake up. You guys are strong and do not need America.
If you haven't noticed, the world is getting worse. Russia is not even a big fish.
Yes sure, but the all problem is neither Breedlove or Ben Hodges are in command. Wish they with be.
I would hate to meet the insane ones.
I have the same opinion as you - greetings from Germany.
Well said, Gen. Breedlove. I wish the Biden Administration would listen to you and Gen. Hodges. Unfortunately, Biden is being advised by Jake Sullivan, who does not have the military experience that the Generals have. Sad.
This cowardly hyper-cautious behavior is normal for the Democrat Party who have always been gutless and normally I would say the Republicans would easily resolve the problem but the Republican Party has been hijacked by Trump and his moronic MAGA clan so Europe is going to have to step up next year.
Well said, I completely agree with you.
The important thing is that the policies are changing. Granted the changes are too slow for most who support Ukraine,but the trends have been
towards granting Ukraine better and better kit and more freedom to use that kit to the greatest military advantage. I suspect the most decisive
point of the war where it comes to international support for Ukraine will be this November with the US elections.
Re-elect Biden and the gloves will fully come off. Elect Trump,and the aid will get cut off to force a peace deal favaorable to Russia. Its that simple.
@@TheLAGopher There is always a chance Trump will come around, I have to believe that because it’s looking more and more likely that he will win. Even if he doesn’t the combined EU countries have the same GDP as America and they will very likely step up and give Ukraine the necessary weapons as it becomes more and more evident what a Russian victory would mean for Europe.
Don’t forget the political arena matters also. Western leaders have to worry about elections. Putin does not.
As much as we all might agree from a military and moral perspective, leaders that present a “hard belly” without a successful corresponding political message is going to potentially lose to a party/candidate that will actively help Putin.
For example, the US has a long history of isolationist movements and Biden’s opposition is steeped in this tradition. The US hasn’t been attacked, so it is much more difficult to unify.
The US is on the verge of being controlled by a Putin-style autocrat. Trump has said he would purge the military commanders (along with the rest of the civil service) and order the military to be deployed domestically. To do that, he would have to recall troops from around the world.
Given those stakes I’m sure you can understand caution…especially when Biden’s campaign is looking pretty good at the moment.
Ten years ago Australia asked NATO countries for support for foreign peace keeping troops in Ukraine. No country stepped up. Two years ago, Australia was alone in allowing Ukraine to use donated weapons and munitions wherever it wanted.
There’s an intellectual deficit in NATO that can’t comprehend outcomes until they’re blindingly obvious. It’s taken 500000 deaths and 5000000 refugees for NATO to respond in a decisive way. So the question is, what changes are needed for NATO to be a force that can react before a crisis, rather than after a crisis, because it f the Australians can see the inevitable before others can, then there is a chronic lack of fortitude, resolve and intelligence in Europe.
I have come to loathe the diplomatic/academic careerists. The experts have been wrong so many times.
Russia has to leave Ukraine immediately! No conditions, no reservations, just leave.
And pay reparations and face justice

He is absolutely right with the comparison to D-Day. Today we celebrate the 80th anniversary of June 6th 1944. However, we are still acting like cowards.
Loved the veteran - Zelensky moment, might have been a media moment but you cannot make a D-Day veteran tell what you want him.

You are so correct, the delay have cost Ukraine and NATO billions of dollars and thousands of lives including women and children.
It seems to me that experienced military leaders such as Gen. Breedlove are much more sensible and pragmatic when it comes to dealing with the types of problems we are facing compared to our politicians.
General Breedlove is nothing short of brilliant and captivating to listen to and learn from. Greetings from Sweden. *Kudos to the great general Breedlove.*
Allowing Russia to fire into Ukraine from Russian territory was madness. Just like allowing Russia to invade Ukraine in 2014. If an aggressor can get away with loot, he becomes even more aggressive.

The two generals you mention here are more concerned with deciding up front if the fight is worth fighting and if so, taking all necessary steps to win. This is opposed to general Milley who wanted to understand his white privilege and said Afghanistan was ready to stand on its own.
@@HanzShaoPing Your gibberish is complete nonsense.

Men the you are right absolute Putin need to be stopped.
Russia using foreign weapons but somehow Ukraine can’t???
Jake Sullivan was also in the Obama administration, and when Putin annexed Crimea and part of Donbas, the US sent Ukraine MREs food kits.
No wonder Putin is so emboldened.
I don't know, they don't have much range but those MREs were pretty deadly.
Sullivan reminds me of John Kerry. Watch: after he loses his job, he'll cycle into the Atlantic Council then land in Stanford--oops, wouldn't pass the DEI test.
As always, General Breedlove is absolutely spot on.
This man is a gentleman and a scholar, he knows his stuff. Respect.
A stark contrast to the former Colonel Douglas McGregor who spell only anti-NATO pro-MAGA propaganda.
One of the best voices in this war.
Very good interview. I agree that the Western governments have allowed the war in Ukraine to become some 'problem' that is going on beyond our horizon. Actually, it is kind of questionable moral ground to have them fight our war, just giving them enough weapons to not lose the war, whilst they are putting the dead military, men, women and children while we bask in the bright sun of our coveted liberties. Sometimes I just feel ashamed that our leaders are using Ukraine and its people as a shield for our relatively cheaply bought safety, while this may also prove to be a just a false sense of safety.
It should not be our war and should not be involved or over there.
Thank you for your clarity General!! Most people all over the world understand this necessity but only the politicians are acting like imbeciles. Peace and much love for your support. SLAVA UKRAINI!! God bless.
The government has really called things more difficult for its citizens, and we can't sit back and bear all the consequences of the bad governance. It's obvious we are headed for inflation,it is always the poor who take the hit.

It's foolish as Gen Hodges said to try to shoot down the arrows when you should be attacking the archer.
Ukraine is a much smaller country than Russia, and they have been fighting this war with one hand behind their back.
Really? Ukraine has received half a Trillion quid of Economic, Humanitarian and Military aid the last 11 Years.

Europe has a short memory. All you need to remember is who planted the flag over the Reichstag. Russians have a sense of justice in their genes. The Europeans will realize that they were doing something wrong only when they see Russian tanks in their windows. Ukraine is the historical lands of the Russian Empire, which Russia is forced to return back. Ukraine is a sphere of Russia's geopolitical interests, period.
It may be dangerous but I think the time has come for NATO to send Mr. Putin a really stiff letter...
NATO has no role in this, and hasn't sent a single NATO bullet or NATO staff to Ukraine that I am aware of. ALL aid is strictly country-to-country. It's important to remember that, because the fact that NATO isn't involved shoots down any Putin claim that he's fighting NATO. Remember NATO stood by as the USSR a55raped Czechoslovakia and Hungary, despite being directly across the border. NATO presents zero threat to Russia, and as soon as you start saying it should, you're actually making Putin's crazy talk TRUE.

Actually even 5 years earlier, when Putin (2003) started the escalation by building the dam in the street of Kerch towards the island of Kossa Tusla (between Russia and Ukraine, belonging to Crimea and thus Ukraine) without prior talks with Ukraine. Even then, Kyiv understood that Russia was trying to redraw the borders between Russia and Ukraine.

Bravo, General Breedlove. As a Ukrainian American, having been doing everything I can to support Ukraine since 2014, I salute you.
I don’t get why the Russian population puts up with a casualty rate of 1000 a day. Pick any western country, tell the people of that country they lost 1000 men in a single day and you’ll get anger & screaming beyond belief, never mind losing 500k soldiers in the past 2,5 years.
Where is your evidence Russia has 1000 casualties a day? Next thing you'll tell me is Ukraine has 0
They're not angry hurting suffering enough YET history of being submissive😢
Casualties numbers include more than deaths. They include dead, wounded, illness, desertion, etc. Death rates are a lot lower and large swaths of Russian troops include mercenaries and prisoners. Further, many of the sources of these totals are very clearly biased towards Ukraine. I’m no fan of Russia and want them to lose, but headline numbers like these are thrown out there more for propaganda purposes.
In Bashkorstostan, a prominent government critique wants conscription to stop "we have no beef with Ukraine". He is now in jail.
You need to understand the following: The Russian government does not care because they are racists and most soldiers come from the Turkic and Asian republics. See Kadhyrov's Tchetchenes. There is little conscription in Russia, and most of it comes from the countryside, far from the big urban centres (Moscow, St Petersbourg etc). My ex (I was living in Eastern Europe, 1976/1977) was conscripted in Afghanistan. His experience was awful. Some Russian soldiers died, not in battle, but through sheer incompetence.
This is why there is no big co-ordinated protest yet.
Because they think they're winning
Remember the scene in Shindlers List where Goeth is laughing at Shindler when he proposes to get waterhoses for the train wagons and then looks at him with astoundment as he spends all of that energy trying to be nice to other humans?
This is how Putin thinks about people as well, the average life of a "lower human" (even a countryman) has so little value that getting them water on a hot day as they're dying from thirst seems silly.
as always, words of great wisdom
Great to hear the truth spoken without fear
There's constant restraints placed on Ukraine by Western leaders, but I don't hear them ever saying Ukraine should strike harder anywhere. How discouraging. 😮
At the same time they will not be BARBARIC, the ussr used Ukraine to invade and conquer Western Europe , Ukraine will have the means to RETALIATE to the Kremlin's use of nukes . ("DONT") .
Well, in 1st place why Ukraine should listen to others? Isn't it free country?

Many thanks Kate, again a really interesting and relevant update - we never have to worry about any strange bias once you are on air 🙏
Fair game .. I love this guy he is up to speed and his opinion is a death sentence for Russia .
Well, I would ask the same question asked of George Herbert Walker Bush in the first Iraq war: What wool you do if you win? Better minds then realized that a weak Sadam was better than no Sadam. Veterans came back with stories. History has proven upsetting the apple cart unleashed chaos that still has the potential to unleash WWIII. It is very hard to keep a lid on it; but I would say that the reason that ‘the decision has not been made’ is that the political leaders know (or at least think) that the American people would not accept it. It took Pearl Harbor to bring America into WWII, it will take a similar existential threat to support the kind of decision General Breedlove advocates, in my opinion.
You are correct, in my opinion. US leaders and EU leaders cynically are using the people of Ukraine to badly damage the Russian army. They hope that it may take Russia ten years to reconstitute and train its best units. That makes Western leaders feel good.
They have hurt themselves far more than ten years
US interest is keeping it in Ukraine and not escalate the war to a point that Russia might threaten US with nukes. Germany is doing exactly what the US tell them, Most of the other European countries want to defeat Russia asap.This will eventually lead to a European defense Force to balance the power in NATO and protect European interest with or without the US.
Most of the world is stepping away from the American dollar reserve currency . They are sick and tired of the hypocrisy and hegemony.
I mean they aren't really even the BRICS countries are still using a majority USD. BRICS is really just a scam to try to shift financial dominance to China it's a poor alternative, it will be the same issues just with a different face.
Tell that to the run on Russian banks dufus.
The Table Mountain Housing Finance Model had no interest associated with loans or savings. Watch You Tube “Money Creation and Society” video and go to 1hour 30 minutes to see exactly how money is created!
Well said.
We also need to remember that Ukranian soldiers ARE Ukranian civilians (who joined up). They're Doctors, Teachers, Office workers, Factory workers, Builders, Engineers, Designers, Fathers, Mothers, Husbands, Wives, Brothers and Sisters and so on. So many weren't Soldiers before this latest stage of the war began. They could be you or your loved ones if this is allowed to go on. I agree that weakness encourages Putin, but I don't think you can compare D-Day to Ukraine, the difference is the threat of escalation to a nuclear conflict, which could have extreme consequences.
Completely disagree. The biggest single threat to the west is its fear and self-limitation. Russia fully realizes this and fully exploits it. THIS MUST STOP.
A sobering assessment of the present situation of western thinking and inaction to date by General Breedlove. Always good to hear what he thinks.
Time to end it. Time to defeat Russia and force them to politically reorganize with laws; democracy and rights. It is time for serfdom to end.

Thank you for your service General ! We Americans and NATO nations were very fortunate to have you at the helm for all those years. Thank you sir! 🇺🇸🇺🇦
Great Mr. Breedlove! 🙏
Putin has said he's fighting NATO and the west. We need to let Ukraine then use the NATO arsenal or it makes NATO look very 1980s. We are at war without the troops. We have a slim window of opportunity before we have to put weapons and people out there.
I think most people are laughing at the Rushn' military. They're a bit of a joke to most people
NATO doesn't have an arsenal. No NATO aid has been given to Ukraine. ALL aid to Ukraine has been on a country-to-country basis. The important distinction is that if you call this "NATO aid" then one could wonder what would happen if, say, Trump disbands NATO. If it's country-to-country aid, then it is clear that disbanding NATO has no effect--and may even INCREASE the bilateral aid.
Thank you General Breedlove for having the courage to share your opinion on the Ukraine war very insightful. I was a child when my father was stationed at SHAPE Belgium and know the importance of NATO. However it is only as good as it’s leadership. I pray to God they know what the stakes are that we are dealing with.
Brilliant interview, thank you Sir.
I think Hodges and Breedlove should be coerced to return to public service in some capacity.
Perhaps they’d prefer to enjoy their retirement !!!!
Excellent!
The end of this video brought me to tears because it's true . We live in freedom and safety when others only a few hundreds miles away die for all the reasons he stated . Powerful and amazing interview
YOU AND HODGES ARE THE BEST
Gloves are off good about time
I didn't realize Louie C.K. was an international policy expert 😅
bro I like searched for this comment, I clicked on the video because I thought Louie C.K. is gonna talk about the war xD
Does anyone else get the impression that these rules of engagement (political limitations to targets) are a lot like those we used in Vietnam ...?
And that went well
Fascinating and insightful interview. Bravo!!

Frankly speaking cowardness makes them decide not to use their weapons in attacking directly in Russia Land !!!
They were demoralized by Putin's intimidation words !!!
Kate, this interview was outstanding!
Very interesting, very good interview, totally clear outlook on what is and what can and possibly will happen
