As a sidenote, your esteemed Guest pronounced "Bewegungskrieg" very well. Far better than most not versed in German. I can also recommend the Ukrainian historian Serhii Plokhy for more interesting facts about the deep history of the conflict.
That was a tour de force by Ajay Shah. Absolutely awesome. Best Seen Unseen episode ever for sure. It also helps that Amit Verma spoke minimally in this episode :P
Thank you so much for seeing what we see. It’s not just about Ukraine! It’s about large imperial countries taking over small countries who can’t defend themselves. These imperial empires crash their enemies, bomb agriculture and any energy. To cripple the civilians so they give up. It’s sad. 😢
Amazing episode without the propaganda noise that’s impossible to filter through completely. It would be of great value if we can have a similar deep dive into the current Israel- Palestine conflict
Threatening NATO Summits During the 90s and 00s, the Russian Elites were all hyperventilating to see NATO creep towards the Russian border in 4 tranches. And it was not as if Russia had been defeated and overrun at the end of the Cold War. They had taken an internal decision to step back and opt out of being a military state. And it was in good faith and good faith was expected in return. And good faith was promised as well to allay Russian strategic fears. And then the West started backtracking and cornering Russia. The facts are all there. The Russian strategists were screaming about it throughout the 90s and 00s. Forget the Russians, all US ambassadors to Russia, like William Burns, all the top US military strategists like George Keenan were warning how dangerous a step that betrayal.. that NATO imperialist advance was going to be. And how Ukraine was the ultimate red line after Gorbachev had been promised that NATO would not advance even an inch. Does that sound like Russia apologists to you? It was a bullying advance which kept advancing relentlessly. On and on. Even at last late step was Russia expected to sit paralyzed and mute?? One must be clear that this war has been Europe's choice! But what choice really.. under American Deep State's unbearable pressures. With the 2014 coup in Ukraine conducted and managed by Victoria Nuland ( her viral video) which was a hugely major tectonic shift.. taking Ukraine out of a Russia-friendly orbit to a West-friendly and hysterically anti-Russia identity. It was a silent revolution.. where suddenly Ukraine turned from Russia's bulwark against aggressive NATO advances into a battering ram for the West to be used against the Russians. Just as the Mujahideen were so helpful for the US in bringing down the Russians in Afghanistan in the 80s. Fighting through a proxy without suffering a scratch.. the best way to fight. Just as the Pakis employ it against India..
