As Russia's invasion of Ukraine enters its second year, war historian and University of Rochester professor Hein Goemans paints what a potential end to the war could look like. #CNN #News
@@ruslankbr5243 Why state the obvious? But the stupid thing is, that if Russia wanted to stop Ukraine from joining NATO because it would come to close to their borders, then they are failing. Finland and Sweden have since then applied for membership. Even if Sweden is not allowed, Finland will. Thus making the border way longer and Finland have a massive army to defend against the Russians. Nukes are not important. Why? If one goes off we will all die. Some will die fast and they will be the lucky ones, some will survive and die slowly because of radiation, disease, lack of food, lack of water, plunder and killings
@@smek22071975 I think Biden or Macron stated that they will not use nukes if Russia will use it in Ukraine. And you quite don’t understand Ukraine importance for Russia this is not Finland or Sweden. Ukraine consists of territories which were part of Russia and there are as many Russians as Ukrainians in those regions, using these territories as a base for NATO is absolutely does not suit Russian interests. You know that USA stated in 2008 that Ukraine WILL BE member of NATO, how do you think where should Russian naval Sevastopol base should be removed in case of Ukraine NATO membership? That is why Russia annexed Crimea.
Fast forward Feb 2024 - Russia has captured Bakhmut and Avdiivka. Other smaller towns being captured on weekly basis. - Western Aid is dwindling. - Internal friction between Zelensky and military commander. Maybe this war will end not very long.
Why the interview ended so quickly? This guy is the man to make a whole segment with. Very knowledgeable. Someone i would love to sit and talk about this war issue.
Yes, he did not come to the scenario where the citizens come to the conclusion that they are betrayed by NATO, EU, UK, Kolomoisky and Zelenski. That Zelensky promised to make an end to coruption and the troubles in the Donbas, and did neither. That the Minsk 2 accords were much better than this war. That the two "revolutions", the "Orange" one and the "Dignity" one, - sponsord by CIA and US oligarchs, - were done by bad loosers in Presidential elections. That they are much better of by letting tthe pro-Russion parts become independent and stay neutral.
This man either knows nothing at all or he is paid to propagandize and lie to you. You know that, right? He could not have been more wrong. I don’t think he’s ignorant; just a liar.
He has NO idea what he's talking about, does he? First, Russia did guarantee Ukraine security and Ukraine was secured. It was the West/NATO that broke the agreement, that started putting weapons right next to Russian borders and even then Putin warned them repeatedly to come to a negotiated settlement. London, Paris and Washington, as usual, mocked him. 2ndly, this historian says NATO is the only part that can guarantee Ukraine safety. Lol...no it can't. NATO is the ONLY reason why Ukraine has now been bombed and destroyed! It was the US and NATO that repeatedly lied and broke the agreement. And now Russia is winning the war. Ukraine is about to run out of money and it also has not many troops left after so many deaths. Ukraine has already lost. Watch how deceptively the liars of London, Paris, Washington and Zelensky now do a face-saving exercise and come to a negotiated agreement within the next few weeks (which is what Putin was asking for in the first place).
That assessment bombed alright. 14 months on and still no end in sight. The Professor was absolutely on the money. Only it's too serious to joke about.

This is the kind of guy I prefer to listen to for over an hour rather than four minutes. I know that’s not realistic on CNN, but even in a short period of time, the professor made a very sound case.
He made a case for what? He says it’s going on for years and will end in negotiated settlement but problem is Russia isn’t credible, Russia could go after Moldova, or Putin’s death if he loses?
Why? WHAT EVIDENCE do you have that THIS particular historian has ANY more predictive capabilities than ANY OTHER historian on the planet? There's nothing wrong with the guy, or even giving his informed best decision. But the way UNCRITICAL IDIOTS take his PREDICTION OF THE FUTURE about NONDETERMINSTIC EVENTS - what humans will choose to do - as "absolute gospel" destroys your and his credibility.

Well he does, but I think he had to say some things in order to get on CNN, which tend to obscure the situation. First of all, while NATO cannot trust Russia, it is clear Russia cannot trust NATO either. It is obvious that the revolution or coup in 2014, changed NATO and Russia's thinking. And while excuses can be made, pretending that the overthrow made no difference, they are ridiculous. Agreements were broken on both sides. But most importantly, Russia fully expected Ukraine to vote pro-Russian. That was why the USSR put Crimea with Ukraine in 1954. To make it more Russian. It was essentially Soviet gerrymandering. Disavowing the large, and very probably majority Russian and pro-Russian people in the claimed territory of Ukraine is nonsense. The idea that Russia is trying to conquer Ukraine is risible; so is the idea that Putin will abandon over 10 million people that are Russian citizens and consider themselves Russian, with no desire to be at war with Russia at a minimum. There is at least one area (Crimea) where these people make up a sizeable majority. The real miscalculation in the war is with NATO. The politicians really thought that Russia was weak and that they could bully Russia into letting go of Ukraine entirely. This was a way of NATO using their vastly superior military to impose on Russia, without a direct war that might trigger a global or nuclear war. As it turns out, a combination of the inefficiency of a proxy war, and the unexpected strength of Russia's relatively low-tech army, has surprised NATO. NATO also somehow miscalculated the strategic and commercial importance of Crimea and Eastern Ukraine to Russia, and failed to appreciate how much the Russian people would support Putin in retrieving it, once it stopped respecting democracy. Russia's miscalculation was the strength of Ukrainian nationalism and the feeling of ownership Ukraine has for the historically Russian territories. They feel that these areas were "given" to Ukraine as a nation and they have every right to kick the Russians out. However, he is correct. The only solution now is a negotiated settlement, and that has to start at a minimum with Crimea conceded to Russia. However, I fear that the USA and NATO need Russian war reparations in order to pay for the war, preferably paid in oil. I don't think there is any way NATO and the USA, can afford to stop the fighting, concede any territory to Russia, and still have the money to rebuild Ukraine and avoid a financial collapse. NATO has put itself in a position that they can't afford anything other than an unconditional surrender by the Russians, and that, as Goemans correctly IMO points out, is historically very unlikely.
@@jeffsuter344 How so? The headline reads "Historian predicts how Russia's war in Ukraine might end?" He never told us that. Did I miss something? He told us several things which would never be acceptable to each side; all of which we knew, so what is his prediction? Enlighten me.

• After the collapse of the USSR, Ukraine received 52 million people, 604 thousand km2, access to the Black Sea, the largest commercial fleet, 15 nuclear reactors, and leading enterprises in the space, aviation, automotive and shipbuilding industries. The largest enterprises of the military-industrial complex remained in Ukraine: shipyards for the construction of aircraft carriers and hovercraft, the production of the largest military transport aircraft, ballistic missile assembly plants, the production of helicopter and ship engines, and a leading tank building plant. • The largest oil and gas pipelines in Europe and the world equipped with the largest underground gas storage facilities were laid through the territory of Ukraine. • In addition to all of the above, 176 ICBMs (130 SS-19s and 46 SS-24s), 43 strategic bombers (23 Tu-95s and 20 Tu-160s), 241 tactical bombers (90 Tu-16s, 70 Tu -22, 81 Tu-22M), 20 Il-78 aircraft for aerial refueling, 245 Su-24 front-line bombers, 80 modernized MiG-25 heavy interceptors and 260 MiG-29 and Su-27 fighters, more than 1,000 air-to-air cruise missiles basing and 5,000 nuclear warheads. This would still be the third nuclear capability in the world, exceeding the combined capabilities of France, Britain, China, India and Pakistan. Add to this 5,500 tanks, 5,800 infantry fighting vehicles and armored personnel carriers, 1,700 aircraft and 500 helicopters. How would Mr.Goemans, being a professinal historian, explain the state in which Ukraine is finding itself right now, given the above?
The problem with intellectuals is that they intellectualise. As far as his claim that wars don’t usually end in victory for one side and defeat for the other is about as wrong as you can be.
@@kylint7683 the most important thing, which he of course is not able to say is that this war was a long-term american deep government project. First step was to make ukrainians hate russians, raise new generation, who will be grown up in hate to russians, set pro-western government in Ukraine. Next step is to make instigate Putin to start war invasion through agents (treasoners, who still sit in russian government and sabotage to make sure Russia won't win ) and making threats of placing NATOs military bases in Ukraine, the main goal is redistribution of ecomonical sphere of influence , making money on killing people in Russia & Ukraine, the more and the longer the war will go on, the more benefits America will get
*CNN* 🌎☮️ Putin will *NOT* allow Russia to lose, he will not back down. Sadly, I can see Ukraine surrendering to Russia in the long run. I think it’s inevitable.
Then you need to stop watching propaganda, bud. Every bit of it was either a lie or him just guessing wildly (and he knows this; I don’t believe he’s dumb).
Former deputy head of the Russian president's office Vladislav Surkov said that he worked on the Minsk agreements under the assumption that they should not be implemented
Really? As a Dutchman, I am glad that he is teaching in the USA. He really thinks that Putler has the possibility to liberate Moldova? How!? This professor discredited himself as far as I am concerned. Besides this, he didn't say anything new or interesting.
@@dougveganparadisebuilder5808 Did he say Putin has the ability to “liberate” Moldova? No, he said that Putin may _try_ to invade Moldova as a way to sell the war to Russians at home as a victory (and therefore “justify” the tremendous loss of life). If the professor is correct that Putin faces death if Russia loses, it’s rational and makes perfect sense that he’d consider all options to allow him to claim “victory”.
This is not a war, this is called special military operation AKA Russian Aggression. An example of war is two or more countries fighting each other by bringing their army into each other's land territory. Ukraine is not taking its army to Moscow or invade Moscow. WW II was a war because Germany brought their Army to other territories and fight England, France and others then US brought their Army to Germany and Japan, and Japan to Pearl Harbor. That's why it was called a "war". I called this a Land Grabbing through military force by invasion. Ukraine is simply defending a territory and is not declaring war against Russia. A boxing match is like a war because two opponents agreed on a fight. A burglary or rape is like an invasion. Consensual f*ucking is sex. Again, this is not a war.
... defending your values? ... you mean you want your nation to be the most CORRUPT nation in the galaxy instead of Ukraine? ... hmmmmm ... what a goal!!! ...
However, the professor failed to acknowledge the ageing European continent. The projected age of Ukraine in 2025 is 42.8 years. An ageing population is detrimental to war.
@@teenahweenah2608 The only end to war is the end of aggression...Russia is the aggressor state here. Age has no bearing on it....only the will to survive. Ukraine isn't interested in you bleeding hearts, that want to try and force your opinions on them, they are interested in a lasting peace only...for them and all around them for them to survive. For that to happen, then Russia must be broken up into smaller manageable independent states, rather than left as the Great Russian empire, the soviet Union or the Russian federation. The name changed regularly in History, to counter the historical memories, but the actions remained the same through each period.....mass destruction, war and complete obedience to the master race. Why are they like this, simply because they are built on the slav`s..... the slave people who have a burning desire to turn the table on the rest of the world. This is turning into a war to protect Ukraine and will grow to include the EU and or NATO as a means to protect the future for what you claim....an end to war. Heroyam Slava Ukraini!

"...war provides information..." Such a straightforward statement (amongst others) from him. Realistic or deeply embedded regional security and sovereignty concerns appear to always have been a legitimate enough reason to go to war, sooner or later.
It's a fascinating thought, believing that Putin was terrified of Ukraine suddenly invading Russia. And worse, perhaps NATO nations like Canada sending their armed forces to join in the NATO support for that unprovoked attack. It's clear why Putin had such enormous regional security and sovereignty concerns faced with a threat to Russia like that. Same as in Georgia and Chechnya previously, apparently.
@@AirborneMOC031 The idea that Ukraine would invade Russia is preposterous. No, this is a war of choice driven by greed, misplaced pride and nostalgia for faded glory.
@@jasonlatour3403 it was engraved in the Ukrainian constitution that they would retake Crimean peninsula. So seeing Ukraine being armed and trained by NATO Putin made a decision to intervene before Ukraine gets stronger to attempt retaking the Crimea.
@@jasonlatour3403 You might want to try reading what I wrote again, before whining about what I wrote.

Well, not wishing to support nor oppose the viewpoints expressed under this thread, all I can suggest is that most people love a good old scrap (often to the death or the bitter end), especially in so far as it pertains to ideas or belief regarding religion, race, territory, perceived identity, perceived justice or just plain old fear of missing out on something or somebody.

1 - some wars did not end at a negotiating table. 2 - The Russian army can be defeated in Ukraine, can collapse if morale is low and logistical flows are harassed
@@solderdesolderlol, the GLSDBs are going to thoroughly check the logistic chains, while the Russians are using up their offensive potential for derisory territorial conquests! We can see the result in Vuhledar and Avdiivka ! While thousands of Ukrainians are being trained and equipment is being accumulated, Bradley, Marder, Stryker, Bastion, new Ceasars, new T-72....
1. Very very few post fall of Berlin when a nuclear power is involved as a belligerent, the only one I can think of is the South Africa bush war. Yeah that's right, Ukraine was not the only country in history to give up their nukes. 2. I'm not going to say this is impossible, but I will say it's improbable. To disrupt their logistical flows means bombing targets in and behind the Urals. The Ukrainians don't possess this capability and most likely won't be given these capabilities. Furthermore, even if Ukraine is very well equipped with perfect logistics, they will run out of manpower before the Russians. Total Ukrainian victory would likely only occur in the case of Russian government collapse.... there are zero indicators that this will occur. We've tried sanctions, yet their economy grows slightly still this year.... their debt to GDP is a fraction of our own, and their foreign currency reserves are holding, as is the value of their currency. Russians, as a people, do not overthrow governments that offer relative stability in economic terms.

This man is wrong on many points. Targeting civilians has worked in several wars . We did it ourselves against Japan. And war is not the gathering of information. War is most times a means of getting a country to agree to a negotiation or compromise that the country previously wouldn’t budge on. Negotiations and compromise are easiest at the end of war because only war makes it clear and undisputed which power sits in a position of dominance during negotiation.

"We're still here ... We are not going anywhere." ~ Native Americans 😔
Native Americans: Our Native American population in our motherland, the Continent of America before the European Colonizers arrived, was around 15 millions, while the European population in their motherland, the Continent of Europe was around 25 millions.
Today, Native American population is 15 million, while the European population, in the Continents of America + Europe, is a staggering 'TWO BILLIONS'! A shocking sad truth. 😔

Do you blame Asians for way more transmitted disease deaths?

This guy is nothing more than another Fake News, globalist shill. His lies are now on the record.
Well he does, but I think he had to say some things in order to get on CNN, which tend to obscure the situation.
First of all, while NATO cannot trust Russia, it is clear Russia cannot trust NATO either. It is obvious that the revolution or coup in 2014, changed NATO and Russia's thinking. And while excuses can be made, pretending that the overthrow made no difference, they are ridiculous. Agreements were broken on both sides. But most importantly, Russia fully expected Ukraine to vote pro-Russian. That was why the USSR put Crimea with Ukraine in 1954. To make it more Russian. It was essentially Soviet gerrymandering.
Disavowing the large, and very probably majority Russian and pro-Russian people in the claimed territory of Ukraine is nonsense. The idea that Russia is trying to conquer Ukraine is risible; so is the idea that Putin will abandon over 10 million people that are Russian citizens and consider themselves Russian, with no desire to be at war with Russia at a minimum. There is at least one area (Crimea) where these people make up a sizeable majority.
The real miscalculation in the war is with NATO. The politicians really thought that Russia was weak and that they could bully Russia into letting go of Ukraine entirely. This was a way of NATO using their vastly superior military to impose on Russia, without a direct war that might trigger a global or nuclear war. As it turns out, a combination of the inefficiency of a proxy war, and the unexpected strength of Russia's relatively low-tech army, has surprised NATO.
NATO also somehow miscalculated the strategic and commercial importance of Crimea and Eastern Ukraine to Russia, and failed to appreciate how much the Russian people would support Putin in retrieving it, once it stopped respecting democracy. Russia's miscalculation was the strength of Ukrainian nationalism and the feeling of ownership Ukraine has for the historically Russian territories. They feel that these areas were "given" to Ukraine as a nation and they have every right to kick the Russians out.
However, he is correct. The only solution now is a negotiated settlement, and that has to start at a minimum with Crimea conceded to Russia. However, I fear that the USA and NATO need Russian war reparations in order to pay for the war, preferably paid in oil. I don't think there is any way NATO and the USA, can afford to stop the fighting, concede any territory to Russia, and still have the money to rebuild Ukraine and avoid a financial collapse. NATO has put itself in a position that they can't afford anything other than an unconditional surrender by the Russians, and that, as Goemans correctly IMO points out, is historically very unlikely.
Very insightful. Thank you.
Why don’t say that Palestine suffers! They don’t care!

• After the collapse of the USSR, Ukraine received 52 million people, 604 thousand km2, access to the Black Sea, the largest commercial fleet, 15 nuclear reactors, and leading enterprises in the space, aviation, automotive and shipbuilding industries. The largest enterprises of the military-industrial complex remained in Ukraine: shipyards for the construction of aircraft carriers and hovercraft, the production of the largest military transport aircraft, ballistic missile assembly plants, the production of helicopter and ship engines, and a leading tank building plant.
• The largest oil and gas pipelines in Europe and the world equipped with the largest underground gas storage facilities were laid through the territory of Ukraine.
• In addition to all of the above, 176 ICBMs (130 SS-19s and 46 SS-24s), 43 strategic bombers (23 Tu-95s and 20 Tu-160s), 241 tactical bombers (90 Tu-16s, 70 Tu -22, 81 Tu-22M), 20 Il-78 aircraft for aerial refueling, 245 Su-24 front-line bombers, 80 modernized MiG-25 heavy interceptors and 260 MiG-29 and Su-27 fighters, more than 1,000 air-to-air cruise missiles basing and 5,000 nuclear warheads. This would still be the third nuclear capability in the world, exceeding the combined capabilities of France, Britain, China, India and Pakistan. Add to this 5,500 tanks, 5,800 infantry fighting vehicles and armored personnel carriers, 1,700 aircraft and 500 helicopters.

The problem with intellectuals is that they intellectualise. As far as his claim that wars don’t usually end in victory for one side and defeat for the other is about as wrong as you can be.
There needs to be a WAY longer interview with this man.
He isn’t saying things CNN wants him to say. 😂
@@kylint7683 the most important thing, which he of course is not able to say is that this war was a long-term american deep government project. First step was to make ukrainians hate russians, raise new generation, who will be grown up in hate to russians, set pro-western government in Ukraine. Next step is to make instigate Putin to start war invasion through agents (treasoners, who still sit in russian government and sabotage to make sure Russia won't win ) and making threats of placing NATOs military bases in Ukraine, the main goal is redistribution of ecomonical sphere of influence , making money on killing people in Russia & Ukraine, the more and the longer the war will go on, the more benefits America will get

Putin will *NOT* allow Russia to lose, he will not back down. Sadly, I can see Ukraine surrendering to Russia in the long run. I think it’s inevitable.
Putin's defeat is inevitable because Europe will not tolerate another USSR, with or without the US.
Most sense I've heard since this war started.
Yes, I was getting interested during the later part of the conversation but unfortunately, it got cut ...please add more of it.
Best explanation of the current situation I have heard to date.
Then you need to stop watching propaganda, bud. Every bit of it was either a lie or him just guessing wildly (and he knows this; I don’t believe he’s dumb).
It wasn't Putin that didn't it was Ukraine and the U S. that didn't. They are the ones that didn't stuck to the Minsk Accord.
Former deputy head of the Russian president's office Vladislav Surkov said that he worked on the Minsk agreements under the assumption that they should not be implemented
Very good analysis, wishing to hear from the professor more often.
He didn’t tell how the war will end CNN is biased
Really? As a Dutchman, I am glad that he is teaching in the USA. He really thinks that Putler has the possibility to liberate Moldova? How!? This professor discredited himself as far as I am concerned. Besides this, he didn't say anything new or interesting.
@@dougveganparadisebuilder5808 Did he say Putin has the ability to “liberate” Moldova? No, he said that Putin may _try_ to invade Moldova as a way to sell the war to Russians at home as a victory (and therefore “justify” the tremendous loss of life).
If the professor is correct that Putin faces death if Russia loses, it’s rational and makes perfect sense that he’d consider all options to allow him to claim “victory”.

This is not a war, this is called special military operation AKA Russian Aggression.
An example of war is two or more countries fighting each other by bringing their army into each other's land territory. Ukraine is not taking its army to Moscow or invade Moscow.
WW II was a war because Germany brought their Army to other territories and fight England, France and others then US brought their Army to Germany and Japan, and Japan to Pearl Harbor. That's why it was called a "war".
I called this a Land Grabbing through military force by invasion.
Ukraine is simply defending a territory and is not declaring war against Russia.
A boxing match is like a war because two opponents agreed on a fight. A burglary or rape is like an invasion. Consensual f*ucking is sex.
Again, this is not a war.

For that to happen, then Russia must be broken up into smaller manageable independent states, rather than left as the Great Russian empire, the soviet Union or the Russian federation.

Facts on CNN?😂😂😂😂😂
"...war provides information..." Such a straightforward statement (amongst others) from him. Realistic or deeply embedded regional security and sovereignty concerns appear to always have been a legitimate enough reason to go to war, sooner or later.
It's a fascinating thought, believing that Putin was terrified of Ukraine suddenly invading Russia. And worse, perhaps NATO nations like Canada sending their armed forces to join in the NATO support for that unprovoked attack. It's clear why Putin had such enormous regional security and sovereignty concerns faced with a threat to Russia like that.
Same as in Georgia and Chechnya previously, apparently.
@@AirborneMOC031 The idea that Ukraine would invade Russia is preposterous. No, this is a war of choice driven by greed, misplaced pride and nostalgia for faded glory.
@@jasonlatour3403 it was engraved in the Ukrainian constitution that they would retake Crimean peninsula. So seeing Ukraine being armed and trained by NATO Putin made a decision to intervene before Ukraine gets stronger to attempt retaking the Crimea.
@@jasonlatour3403 You might want to try reading what I wrote again, before whining about what I wrote. I essentially posted what you're now repeating: the idea that Putin actually feared invasion from Ukraine with NATO nations like Canada sending their troops to fight a land war across Russia is indeed ridiculous.
But... thanks for coming out.
Well, not wishing to support nor oppose the viewpoints expressed under this thread, all I can suggest is that most people love a good old scrap (often to the death or the bitter end), especially in so far as it pertains to ideas or belief regarding religion, race, territory, perceived identity, perceived justice or just plain old fear of missing out on something or somebody.

While thousands of Ukrainians are being trained and equipment is being accumulated, Bradley, Marder, Stryker, Bastion, new Ceasars, new T-72....
@@chrisrobert5252 you will see, Ukraine can't win
1. Very very few post fall of Berlin when a nuclear power is involved as a belligerent, the only one I can think of is the South Africa bush war. Yeah that's right, Ukraine was not the only country in history to give up their nukes.
2. I'm not going to say this is impossible, but I will say it's improbable. To disrupt their logistical flows means bombing targets in and behind the Urals. The Ukrainians don't possess this capability and most likely won't be given these capabilities. Furthermore, even if Ukraine is very well equipped with perfect logistics, they will run out of manpower before the Russians. Total Ukrainian victory would likely only occur in the case of Russian government collapse.... there are zero indicators that this will occur. We've tried sanctions, yet their economy grows slightly still this year.... their debt to GDP is a fraction of our own, and their foreign currency reserves are holding, as is the value of their currency. Russians, as a people, do not overthrow governments that offer relative stability in economic terms.
Lots can happen. But that's of the most unlikely
CNN host wanted to imply that CNN time was precious; but in reality, the outstanding performance of the guest speaker showed the contrary - the guest's time was more precious.
He looks exactly like i imagined.
Watching from afar.History has shown time and time again what happens to evil Dictators.
This time footage must be in 3D, and in high resolution.
In the past, these evil dictators didn’t have Life threatening weapons on standby, by the thousands. This guy could end civilization, or so they say. Really hope I’m wrong tho

@@isaacgloria9963 So, you are not among those invited to the underground bunkers, are you? Fifteen years and everything will be normal on the surface: clean air and water, normal atmosphere....and no other humans or dictators. AI robots will ensure all pockets of enemy resistance are eliminated, just like in the prophecies.
He is a great war analyst. God bless him for saying the truth.
This man is wrong on many points. Targeting civilians has worked in several wars . We did it ourselves against Japan. And war is not the gathering of information. War is most times a means of getting a country to agree to a negotiation or compromise that the country previously wouldn’t budge on. Negotiations and compromise are easiest at the end of war because only war makes it clear and undisputed which power sits in a position of dominance during negotiation.
I would not be surprised that it's going to go on for years
