I live in Moscow. The correspondent is absolutely right when talking about the connections which the Russian government is making between the Great Patriotic War (1941-1945) and the war Ukraine. However, describing the current situation in Moscow as 'surreal' is exaggerated. Yes, it's expensive to repair a foreign car or to buy a MacBook in nowadays Russia. Yes, there are advertisements for the war. But other aspects of life and the general mood of Russians hasn't changed. They still go to work, go clubbing and do other hobbies. The reporter even uses same depressive music in the background to make it look even more sad where, in fact, it's not that bad. Wish to see less propaganda from BBC as foreigners may have incorrect understanding of the events happening in Moscow.
Agreed. I also live here, and it's clearly a last-ditch propaganda effort. The general mood of the people is "mildly inconvenienced" at best. I only watched because I knew it would be this bad. Lol. Meanwhile, Russian state-funded media is still totally censored in the West while this grandpa here complains so can eat the good pelmeni tonight)
@@wc1937 Yes this story is exaggerated, I've watched lots of videos showing Moscow as normal. But have you considered that you are also being fed propaganda? I'd say life definitely isn't normal for the people in Moscow that don't believe everything the Russian government tells them, I bet they feel isolated and cut off from even their loved ones who are completely deluded. Thoughts?
@@rogan6947 well you can't expect russian media filled with white angels when western media is filled with propaganda, right? Every media has their own propaganda to spread. Moreover, internet is available in russia, so none is isolated, they can surf internet to satisfy their curiosity. Just like how some people are deluded by their govt in western nations obviously there are some people who are deluded by russian govt there.
@@stanstankov9153 I live and Moscow, and in the start of war I supported Ukraine, and said many bad things about our army and leadership in social networks. And I'm all right. During the 15 months of the war in Russia, only 5,000 cases of "discrediting the army" were initiated, of which less than a thousand ended in criminal terms. The rest were fined. Russian social networks are full of Ukrainian bots and provacators, and they are dealt with by the people themselves, not law enforcement agencies.
@@ElaborateTiger I am student, so I am free from army up to 2026. Also, I live in Moscow, and in mobilization scale in Moscow are much lower than in other parts of Russia. People from province are suffering much more. Nearly 400 thousand planned to be drafted to war this spring and summer
@@paulleach3612 I know probably you wouldnt, but people do defend their country without no orders, did you know that? do you think many Ukrainians would not fight if government wouldnt tell them? it would probably be an insurgency war, guerilla war, not regular force like it is now, but they would be fighting. and you would be watching how they get slowly hunted by those Z lowlifes.
@@alexsilent5603 stop dreaming you lowlife scum. Ukraine wont live by the Z pervert rules, do you understand? Z freaks cut heads and balls off for POWs. they are like ISIS but with snow.
I live in Russia and, honestly, it hasn't changed a bit for me in these 14 month. Politicians are stating, soldiers are fighting, the frontline's standing still. The people are working, children are studying, foreigners are judging, everything's just the same. Most people including me are just tired of this neverending something happening in Ukraine. We just don't see any meaning in referencing the war most of the time, because we have no control over it anyway. The propaganda? It's always been there since its creation and it hasn't changed a bit. Nobody cares about "newspeak" or some stupid ideas, for everyone it's a war, not a SMO, but everyone's just staying in the comfort zone, because freaking 14 months have passed and nothing changed for most people. Comments from foreigners on the Internet are mostly unauthentic and unfiting. Like, all these references to 1984 are just not true. It's as if a Russian would call USA 1984, and they would be just as right as you are. Still, it's only natural that foreigners are trying to take part in something they don't understand. There are also people in Russia that want Trump or Biden to win and for some reason care about whatever happens in the USA. I hope the war ends soon, and Ukrainians may experience peace at last.
While you all don’t care your president with his decision stole normal life from my family. Why do I have to suffer from your politicians? Mostly I see zero empathy from Russians. Many say «Ukrainians bomb themselves”. Will never understand Russians. Lack of empathy and complete apathy will get back at you
@@tetianabastyl756 Lol, but Ukr did bomb themselves while its people stood silent and did nothing to help those in the Eastern regions, this is objective truth, and it's why things have escalated to this point. No sympathy given, clown.
Do not forget that in WW2 the Soviet Union invaded Poland alongside Nazi Germany in September 1939. During WW2 they invaded other countries too. The sad part is, they kept those lands for nearly 50 years as "victors and liberators".

Yup that tone of voice is deliberate. It creates tension as if it's a very dangerous place. He's a good propagandist with many years of practice. The BBC is the best at brainwashing gullible people who never question their narrative. Find other sources outside of NATO to compare notes
Although it is indeed a very nice style to report events in Russia. He still holds that slightly biased opinion, especially during interviews with governmental officials (Mr. Lavrov), was quite rude at parts.
The fact that they've already put it in their "hall of victory" (nice newspeak there), is mind-blowing. It's such an excellent example of why history needs to be constantly evaluated and reexamined, to make sure that truth is the priority.
Yes, this is too musc as for me (live in Moscow). But I also sadly surprised that Zelensky renamed Victory Day to Europe Day. It looks like he's letting us know that Ukraine was among the losers in WWII.
@@Pfromm007 Россия тоже европейская страна, но отменять великий праздник как для российского так и для украинского народа, только потому что его отмечают русские - глупо. Праздник создан, чтобы почтить память погибших солдат, которые подарили нам жизнь, если бы не они нас бы и скорее всего вас бы тоже не было. Вклад каждой страны сражавшейся против нацистов важен. Ведь было очень много украинцев, которые внесли огромный вклад в защиту советских территорий. Но поймите, действия не только украинцев, но и других стран, по типу "внесём памятники, потому что это русские" неправильные, ведь некоторые страны начали существовать только после развала СССР, многим странам помог СССР во второй мировой, ведь многие страны не могли больше месяца сопротивляться Гитлеру, а сейчас снос памятников великих людей, спасших их страны - тупость.

This war between Russia and Ukraine is so unnecessary so many inncoent people have lost their lives and what for? The pain, suffering, food shortages and massive depression just heartbreaking for the innocent people in Russia and Ukraine
Yep - tell it to those who were winding up this war for last 2 decades (if I remember right it was not Russia who changed power in Ukraine twice - back in 2004 and in 2014 :) ), didn't stop Ukraine attacking Donbass for 8 years (more like Germany and France) and continues to wind up the hatred (see Steve Rosenberg reports :) ).
It wasn’t the west you can’t blame them for this one the only time the west caused Russia to invade a country was Georgia and that’s it the only time it happened. The Ukraine war is a war solely started by Putin and his cronies and that’s it nobody to blame for this except them
I made friends with a Russian tourist when I travelled to HongKong just 2 days ago. Even if we’re strangers we explored HK together and it was fun. I flew back to Cebu and he flew to Korea. Russian people are awesome!!
sighh did they? did they really? what is the point of spreading this crap? It was not in "alliance" with the nazis. It was a part of a demarcation agreement between the 2 blocs which was meant to ensure that they kept their distance from each other. So when the Germans broke that pact by invading Poland, the Soviets responded in kind to control the territory that they had ceded to Poland after the Polish-Russo war and which housed Ukrainians and Belarussians who were basically Soviets. Either you're uneducated or a troll.
Well, a lot of people in the West don't know that Russia started WW2 together with Germany. (Just google Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact). Hitler attached from the West, Russia from the East, in September 1939. Only 2 years later, after Hitler betrayed Stalin, Russia reluctantly joined the Allies. In fact, any ne who studies history knows Russia has been one of the biggest aggressors in human history - not Germany.
I live in Moscow right now and life just as usual. At least we still have our values and tradions. But NEW normal for EU and Britain is that in school boys can use girls bathrooms now and that parents do not have a say in changing gender of their 6 year old child. So stop your BS stories. Also I see that British reporter can walk around Moscow and is not baned from Russia at the same time EU and Britain are banning Russian reporters all the time. So just be grateful that we allow you to work from our country and stop your BS
Oh yeah - everything is fine alright! What a joke. When your only true allies are China, North Korea and Iran, and the rest of the world considers you criminals, it’s not going well. The country will be paying the price for decades because of Putin’s war

Carolyn that's a very naive statement. The loss of the lives of a group of men man with weapons running at your home trying to kill you and your family is not something to mourn. The Ukrainians have been attacked in their own homes, have a think about how you'd react if that happened to you. You are equating evil people dying with good people dying.

Journalists tend to break authoritarian country laws in order to get reports, journalists are not allowed to visit Xinjiang province, yet some journalists made reports there, stating lies to Chinese that they are just tourists.
Is it necessary to use that kind of music? As a Russian I’m proud of every soldier who’s risking his life in this war and as not eligible for military service civilian I do what I can to help those on the frontlines. Why the Americans are allowed to be proud of their military, why the French are allowed to be proud of their military but we’re not? They all wage unjust wars to expend their country’s influence. But when we do that we are the villains. There are a lot of problems in Russia but these are our own problems we don’t need the West’s help.

Poor Russian's, sometimes I feel bad for them but when I think of Ukraine I get over it pretty quick. Glory to Ukraine, glory to democracy.
I have not watched this video and I do not think I will... but one question is crossing my mind: how come a BBC reporter is filming in Russia and no Russian one seems is allowed to do that in the west? The west started censoring Russian tv programs like Russia Today or Russian talk shows. The Russian governenment threatened to do the same... conclusion: such videos should not be possible. If the reporter lives in Moscow, for sure there are Russian ones living in Europe... why the hell simply not stop this hypocrisy and let people get informed by both sides? Propaganda from both sides for sure, but then watchers will decide or find out on their own where the truth lies!
as a russian, I can say that nothing has changed. the only annoying thing is that we cannot pay with our cards in the shops of foreign countries. old brands (specialising on clothes and food) have new names, but they’re doing the same work and we do not really feel it on ourselves. like, who is going to die bc “coca-cola” is being called “coolcola”, lmao? new generations of people (generally) do not care about it and keep living as usual-

2:40 - In the Russian propagandists' defense, the war is Ukraine is indeed like WWII, except that instead of Hitler (and Stalin) marching into Poland and the Sudetenland, Russia marched into Ukraine. They have it backwards, but the comparison is apt.

Some Russians say they call it a "special operation " because the war hasn't even begun yet. Meaning no nukes and deaths in the hundred thousands yet. Scary.
The Majority of the Russian people have been filled with too much fear due to deaths , and imprisonment at every attempted uprising.

Germany did not go to war with Poland alone. It was Germany and the Soviet Union together. Just a well-known fact that is overlooked because it does not fit with the description of the winners of World War II. Nazi Germany and the communist USSR unleashed World War II in a secret pact, while Poland and other European countries fell victim to aggression. 1939-1940 The USSR with Germany attacks Poland, executing officers, then throwing off bombing cities in Finland. They occupy Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Bessarabia and deported the local population. And only the Germans attacked Moscow, made the communists from the same fascists into the main victims of the war.

Reportedly he has been kept in solitary confinement for up to 23 hours a day which has severely affected his health. Reported in the I Newspaper "John Shipton described the treatment of his son, who is currently imprisoned in London’s top security prison Belmarsh, as “sordid and hysterical”. In an interview with the Press Association, Mr Shipton said it was “extraordinary” that his son was being held in such harsh prison conditions, adding that his health was deteriorating. “The only people who are breaking the law are the UK Government and the Crown Prosecution Service,” he said. “He is being subjected to every sort of torment,” he said. '‘Distressing’
Well said, I was going to make a similar point until I read your post. I have listened to many of Rosenberg's reports from Russia, they are highly partial and smack of Russophobia, and of course speak to the official BBC 'news' narrative which is now just propaganda. Rosenberg has been spouting anti Russian stuff for years from inside Russia, but appears to be able to do so quite freely.
Russian are forgetting that in WW2, the US supplied with equipment and supplies for the war to russia trough Alaska. Without the US supply provided, the russian COULD NOT defeat the Germans. Where would Russia get materials for war? Out of their rear end? That is why stalingrad was able to outlast the Germans.

Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. “Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds. “Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the Universe, are challenged by this point of pale light. Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity, in all this vastness, there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves.” -Sagan
But RuZZia still needs more land!---They have pretty well destroyed theirs and need fresh land to destroy!---They suffer terribly by being SURROUNDED by other countries---problem is, whenever they attack and take a neighbouring country--another country pops up on its new border!---It's an endless cycle!
Steve Rosenberg is one of the very few English journalists who is highly fluent in Russian and his interviews with dictators are remarkable. The interview with creep Boreshenko stands out. Steve's knowledge and ability must piss off Putin a great deal however, even the Russian leadership respect Steve's understanding of Russia and Russian culture. This video is viewed accurately by the west and also by Russia who see what they want to see. Its that ability that makes Steve's interviews and commentary so informative, even to Putin sacrificial lambs for the slaughter.
Oh my god. You are really brainwashed by western media if you still believe in dictators. This is just your media shows others dictators, but think about your system, you even can't do anything with expensive monarchy when they spent a lot of money just for coronation while your economy goes down.
Steve is a "propagandist", not journalist. I never saw really insightful stories or interviews from him - usually they are a week or so old and usually, being exposed to both side, I can tell more than he does. As mentioned above - when he tries to manipulate country leader they usually quickly put him in his proper place.
I just copied another comment So Poland is also evil for taking part of Czechoslovakia allying Hitler in 1938? Btw, if you were Stalin in 1939: 1) would you let him capture entire Poland (to have huge frontline with Hitler later) 2) attack him and his best army in the world immediately (that would be hard to explain to Russians later) 3) or took part of Poland to get extra buffer zone between you and Germany (and twice as short frontline)
Your experiences... it is very cute. But nothing has really changed in Russia, Russians live, work and enjoy life. About the same as the Americans during the war in Yugoslavia, Iraq, Syria, Libya.
Britain: "We're going to have a coronation, and celebrate the goodness of man and public service. Our king is the defender of the poor and downtrodden, and we stand up for these values." Russia: "We're going to drive tanks through through the streets and threaten the world! Kyiv in three days!"
I'm living in the middle of Russia and definitly can say that nothing changed for most of people after 1 year of war. Almost nothing. And as I can see from my side people bacame more peacefully and less aggressive to Ukraine and other "western" world. Hope war will over soon.
I live in Moscow. The correspondent is absolutely right when talking about the connections which the Russian government is making between the Great Patriotic War (1941-1945) and the war Ukraine. However, describing the current situation in Moscow as 'surreal' is exaggerated. Yes, it's expensive to repair a foreign car or to buy a MacBook in nowadays Russia. Yes, there are advertisements for the war. But other aspects of life and the general mood of Russians hasn't changed. They still go to work, go clubbing and do other hobbies. The reporter even uses same depressive music in the background to make it look even more sad where, in fact, it's not that bad. Wish to see less propaganda from BBC as foreigners may have incorrect understanding of the events happening in Moscow.
Agreed. I also live here, and it's clearly a last-ditch propaganda effort. The general mood of the people is "mildly inconvenienced" at best. I only watched because I knew it would be this bad. Lol. Meanwhile, Russian state-funded media is still totally censored in the West while this grandpa here complains so can eat the good pelmeni tonight)
Will never understand Russians. Lack of empathy and complete political apathy will get back at you

@@wc1937 Yes this story is exaggerated, I've watched lots of videos showing Moscow as normal. But have you considered that you are also being fed propaganda? I'd say life definitely isn't normal for the people in Moscow that don't believe everything the Russian government tells them, I bet they feel isolated and cut off from even their loved ones who are completely deluded. Thoughts?
@@rogan6947 well you can't expect russian media filled with white angels when western media is filled with propaganda, right? Every media has their own propaganda to spread. Moreover, internet is available in russia, so none is isolated, they can surf internet to satisfy their curiosity. Just like how some people are deluded by their govt in western nations obviously there are some people who are deluded by russian govt there.

As an average Moscow resident, I can say that my life hasn’t changed at all.
Can you say something bad about the army on social medias ?
@@stanstankov9153 I live and Moscow, and in the start of war I supported Ukraine, and said many bad things about our army and leadership in social networks. And I'm all right. During the 15 months of the war in Russia, only 5,000 cases of "discrediting the army" were initiated, of which less than a thousand ended in criminal terms. The rest were fined. Russian social networks are full of Ukrainian bots and provacators, and they are dealt with by the people themselves, not law enforcement agencies.

@@paulleach3612 I know probably you wouldnt, but people do defend their country without no orders, did you know that? do you think many Ukrainians would not fight if government wouldnt tell them? it would probably be an insurgency war, guerilla war, not regular force like it is now, but they would be fighting. and you would be watching how they get slowly hunted by those Z lowlifes.
@@alexsilent5603 stop dreaming you lowlife scum. Ukraine wont live by the Z pervert rules, do you understand? Z freaks cut heads and balls off for POWs. they are like ISIS but with snow.
I live in Russia and, honestly, it hasn't changed a bit for me in these 14 month. Politicians are stating, soldiers are fighting, the frontline's standing still. The people are working, children are studying, foreigners are judging, everything's just the same. Most people including me are just tired of this neverending something happening in Ukraine. We just don't see any meaning in referencing the war most of the time, because we have no control over it anyway. The propaganda? It's always been there since its creation and it hasn't changed a bit. Nobody cares about "newspeak" or some stupid ideas, for everyone it's a war, not a SMO, but everyone's just staying in the comfort zone, because freaking 14 months have passed and nothing changed for most people.
Comments from foreigners on the Internet are mostly unauthentic and unfiting. Like, all these references to 1984 are just not true. It's as if a Russian would call USA 1984, and they would be just as right as you are. Still, it's only natural that foreigners are trying to take part in something they don't understand. There are also people in Russia that want Trump or Biden to win and for some reason care about whatever happens in the USA. I hope the war ends soon, and Ukrainians may experience peace at last.
Same, I live in the UK.

Yes, this is too musc as for me (live in Moscow). But I also sadly surprised that Zelensky renamed Victory Day to Europe Day. It looks like he's letting us know that Ukraine was among the losers in WWII.
@@chloris6349 Ukraine is European.
@@Pfromm007 Россия тоже европейская страна, но отменять великий праздник как для российского так и для украинского народа, только потому что его отмечают русские - глупо.

Yep - tell it to those who were winding up this war for last 2 decades (if I remember right it was not Russia who changed power in Ukraine twice - back in 2004 and in 2014 :) ), didn't stop Ukraine attacking Donbass for 8 years (more like Germany and France) and continues to wind up the hatred (see Steve Rosenberg reports :) ).
what for? This is a matter of honor and a matter of blood feud.
It wasn’t the west you can’t blame them for this one the only time the west caused Russia to invade a country was Georgia and that’s it the only time it happened. The Ukraine war is a war solely started by Putin and his cronies and that’s it nobody to blame for this except them

Of course they won't. It doesn't suit their narrative
the probably do not mention Finland either, these "liberators"
sighh did they? did they really? what is the point of spreading this crap? It was not in "alliance" with the nazis. It was a part of a demarcation agreement between the 2 blocs which was meant to ensure that they kept their distance from each other. So when the Germans broke that pact by invading Poland, the Soviets responded in kind to control the territory that they had ceded to Poland after the Polish-Russo war and which housed Ukrainians and Belarussians who were basically Soviets. Either you're uneducated or a troll.
Well, a lot of people in the West don't know that Russia started WW2 together with Germany. (Just google Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact). Hitler attached from the West, Russia from the East, in September 1939. Only 2 years later, after Hitler betrayed Stalin, Russia reluctantly joined the Allies. In fact, any ne who studies history knows Russia has been one of the biggest aggressors in human history - not Germany.
Why didn't the Western allies declare war on BOTH NAZI GERMANY & USSR then?
I live in Moscow right now and life just as usual. At least we still have our values and tradions.

Germany did not go to war with Poland alone. It was Germany and the Soviet Union together. Just a well-known fact that is overlooked because it does not fit with the description of the winners of World War II. Nazi Germany and the communist USSR unleashed World War II in a secret pact, while Poland and other European countries fell victim to aggression.
1939-1940 The USSR with Germany attacks Poland, executing officers, then throwing off bombing cities in Finland.
They occupy Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Bessarabia and deported the local population.
And only the Germans attacked Moscow, made the communists from the same fascists into the main victims of the war.

I guess he thought of the last sentences: " Nazi Germany attacked SU, but now Russia attacked Ukraine". This sentence gives you the impression Russia just attacked Ukraine because Russia is evil and wants to conquere Ukraine. And neglects the facts that Ukraine wanted to join a military alliance which sees Russia as an enemy. By the way there were constant fights in Donbas for years before the official starting day of this horrible war. So I guess he thought something like this. Each coin has two sides. Even if you do not mention the other.

Let's be honest with yourself. You can't care less about any other war or any other country. The only reason you're obsessed with this one is Russia.
Even the way they present the WW2 era in that museum is completely shocking and gamifying the tragedy that occurred where millions lost their lives. Growing up in western europe, somberly visiting memorial centres in former concentration camps, seeing this 3D light show spectacle is in such unbelievably poor taste that I could vomit if I was actually there.
25 million Russian lost they lives during WW2, nobody should forget that.
Because Russians saved you, not vice versa
@@chebysh8047 what does that have to do with displaying appropriate respect for the tragedy and lives lost? Soviet POV received some of the worst treatment in nazi concentration camps, millions of Soviet soldiers died, millions of people in the Soviet Union starved to death in that time or were killed in gulags, yet this display treats it all with the gravitas and reflection of an ego-shooter game. No matter how necessary or righteous your cause in a war is -and the USSR was no innocent noble hero in this, going splitsies on Poland with the nazis, expanding their own authoritarian regime across eastern europe -it's still a tragedy that they found themselves in that situation at all and it's beyond shocking that one has to once again explain to people that there is no "glory" in war, like it's 1914 and the lessons of the 20th century were all for nothing...
@@Felsenkeks I agree with you. And this is how this war is treated in Russia. Every family has its hero grandfather. Everyone understands that it’s a tragedy, however it’s also a victory day.

Australian journalist Julian Assange has been locked up for over 4 years in maximum security prison Belmarsh without trial by the UK government. Reportedly he has been kept in solitary confinement for up to 23 hours a day which has severely affected his health.
Reported in the I Newspaper "John Shipton described the treatment of his son, who is currently imprisoned in London’s top security prison Belmarsh, as “sordid and hysterical”.
In an interview with the Press Association, Mr Shipton said it was “extraordinary” that his son was being held in such harsh prison conditions, adding that his health was deteriorating.
“The only people who are breaking the law are the UK Government and the Crown Prosecution Service,” he said. “He is being subjected to every sort of torment,” he said.

Steve's knowledge and ability must piss off Putin a great deal however, even the Russian leadership respect Steve's understanding of Russia and Russian culture.
This video is viewed accurately by the west and also by Russia who see what they want to see.
Its that ability that makes Steve's interviews and commentary so informative, even to Putin sacrificial lambs for the slaughter.
he's Jewish, he's doing what it's expected, Einstein
Oh my god. You are really brainwashed by western media if you still believe in dictators. This is just your media shows others dictators, but think about your system, you even can't do anything with expensive monarchy when they spent a lot of money just for coronation while your economy goes down.
Steve is a "propagandist", not journalist. I never saw really insightful stories or interviews from him - usually they are a week or so old and usually, being exposed to both side, I can tell more than he does. As mentioned above - when he tries to manipulate country leader they usually quickly put him in his proper place.

WW2 started when Brits DECLARED war on Germany.
Italy DECLARED war on England.
I just copied another comment
So Poland is also evil for taking part of Czechoslovakia allying Hitler in 1938?
Btw, if you were Stalin in 1939:
1) would you let him capture entire Poland (to have huge frontline with Hitler later)
2) attack him and his best army in the world immediately (that would be hard to explain to Russians later)
3) or took part of Poland to get extra buffer zone between you and Germany (and twice as short frontline)
Your experiences... it is very cute. But nothing has really changed in Russia, Russians live, work and enjoy life. About the same as the Americans during the war in Yugoslavia, Iraq, Syria, Libya.
Britain: "We're going to have a coronation, and celebrate the goodness of man and public service. Our king is the defender of the poor and downtrodden, and we stand up for these values."
