Russia has invaded the Crimean peninsula of Ukraine and taken over its civilian and military infrastructure. Not a shot has been fired so far, but Russia is using its superior force to intimidate Ukrainian troops in an attempt to get them to surrender.
Russia claims it wants to stabilize the situation on the peninsula, which has a large Russian population, but Ukraine's new government regards the move as an occupation of its sovereign territory.

Been rewatching Vice’s past coverage of Ukraine since Russia invaded. I remember watching all of this when it happened and even talking to a Ukrainian who was a penpal at the time. I almost forgot how long this conflict has actually been going on.
It’s surreal
th-cam.com/video/96pR7thVfNA/w-d-xo.html
It’s not a conflict, it’s an attack from Russian side
Hopefully it will end soon when Ukraine surrenders
To be continued has a meaning
It’s crazy to rewatch this and think how many of these Russians and Ukrainian soldiers and civilians are still alive to this point
Alive? Or dead in the war
You are talking nonsense. Why do these people have to die? almost all are alive. Let me remind you that the Russians took the Crimea in a couple of days with almost no losses, in total 2-3 soldiers died there (if you count together with the Ukrainians). And the Crimea was almost not subjected to battles, all these civilians are still alive (with the exception of those who have already died of old age) and the soldiers, most likely, are also almost all alive. Russia does not have as many losses as they tell you on TV, because otherwise there would be a real panic here and everyone would be called up, but I live in Russia and nothing has changed since the beginning of the war, except for the prices of some products. As for the Crimea: It was an exemplary-ideal operation. The Ukrainians realized who they were fighting, how strong Russia was, and asked the Americans to strengthen the Ukrainian army to a very high level. Theoretically, NATO can strengthen the Ukrainian army to the level of the Russian army, but then everyone in the whole world will die.

So ?
No, it didn't. They only gave "non-lethal equipment" whatever would that be till 2022. And disarmed Ukraine for 30 years - forced it to give up nukes and long-range rockets
Ukraine doesn't even have a navy and hasn't received the f16s, they got no Apache helicopters, no long range missiles, 31 tanks from the US. I don't know what you people are smoking.
This is a new type of siege where they stare to each other eyes and the first who blinks looses the base or on the other side they leave.

except for the very few, Crimea wanted to escape the mess that had become Ukraine. Plus, with all the anti-Russian sentiment(literally genocide), only an idiot would chose to remain a part of Ukraine and see what happens. Donbass did that, and behold...
Germany did it quite a bit. Austria, hungry, Czechoslovakia.
@@bobdroidsky225
Donbass did that and got fucked up really deep.
That's because that land wanted to be taken. The Crimea always felt itself to be Russian.
The Ukrainian Colonel at 2:03 , Sergey Ivanovich Storozhenko, born in Kharkiv Oblast 1975 was drafted into the Ukrainian military in 1992 but defected to Russia after this. Now is a Major General serving as Chief of Staff of the Russian 35th Combined army, and has participated in the subsequent invasion of his home nation.
Interesting. I myself wonder what happened to him either dead or alive
The year of birth in 1975 hints to us a little that his home country was the USSR, and he has very little to do with modern pro-Western Ukraine.

Russian Imperial fascist (rashists) five years in a row telling everyone that they will take Kiev in 2 days. LOL! )))
@@AliShuktu 5 years you hear it? Surprisingly, 5 years ago, your president blocked social networks, TV from Russia. Leaving you only false propaganda about the great victories of the Ukrainian army. 5 years you are fighting with "drunken miners," as you called them. After all, about 2 days to capture Kiev, you learned from Ukrainian TV. Kiev for 6 days you can capture! But why? Without the support of the population - it is a waste of time. Then again you have to pay debts for you. Feed you. Pay pensions. Raise the industry that you drank and plundered for 25 years of independence. Stop dreaming. Russia will not capture you. Start working and not jumping in the squares accusing Russia of its troubles. Which you 25 years made a discount on gas, and you also managed to steal it. Let Europe loafers feeds you. But no one will be fed for free for a long time! Europe is not the eldest brother from the east. For the money - pay with land!
@@AliShuktu Why should I lie ?! You're so strange. And why should Europe look for you stolen gas? Europe gets everything in full - because it pays for it. "You" stole it from Russia by sucking out transit pipes. Well, now this shortage of land has ceased and Ukraine will buy gas at market value. Like the Baltic states. Brother - brother, but wallets are separate. About engines, you are “almost” right, it was not easy to start production of your own. in 2020 it is planned to release 200 engines. Motor Sich is on sale, soon this office will have no relation to Ukraine. Maybe it will be Russian or Chinese, no longer important. About the fact that Russia can not do something, you say 25 years. Is this your national sport ?! For a whole year you were told on TV about the Crimean Bridge. Ops, and it was built. And dolphins swim under it and trains run on it, cars ride :). You don’t know about satellites and rockets, because you watch Ukrainian TV. Recently, together with Germany, we launched the SPECTR-RG scientific observatory. Turn off the TV and finish with alcohol.
@@AliShuktu I hasten to please you. You can jump today. It turns out that in Russia they are already making turbines for military ships. You can breathe out and pour yourself a glass of vodka. How did it happen that without producing or selling something for Russia, you own, you create a competitor for yourself in Russia. Another time bringing your economy closer to the economy of the Drochi Do Pota and Wamhuya tribes ?! This should be included in the economics textbooks under the heading "How to destroy the Soviet wealth and stand with an outstretched hand, on the example of Ukraine. Simens, which carried the phone to the winter palace to Tsar Nicholas II, established the production of gas turbines in Russia. But do not be hysterical! Sanctions in action ...

In 1991, it became part of independent Ukraine as the Autonomous Republic of Crimea....well after Russia takes it over I guess its no longer part of Ukraine ;p
***** Check google maps its part of Russia now
***** How was it seized illegaly the people of Crimea voted for joining Russia, then the Russian Duman voted for accepting Crimea into Russia. So the people wanted to belong to Russia why should they then not be allowd to be with Russia?
I'll tell you more, open a history book. All Ukraine is the former territories of the Russian Empire and the Soviet Union. Which were taken Russia. So and so Crimea - Russia.
***** Well as i read stated in an article about the crisis in Ukrain, Russia technicly never invaded Crimea they just moved their soldiers out of the bases that have their leggaly. If you look what happens in Eastern Ukrain now you could argue that Russias move saved many lives becaus the same uprising would have happend in Crimea and if the army of Ukrain started using force near Russian bases the Russian army would have had to answer and it would have lead to a blood bath.

I would like everyone here to study the Creation of "Kosovo" and how hypocritical the West and NATO can be.
Look in the mirror for hypocrisy.
Nice try but Kosovo was created because Milosevic thought ethnic cleansing and genocide was a good way to stay in power and we all saw what that meant in Bosnia. Crimea is already autonomous and Kosovo was not.
Learn the history of Kosovo before you write stuff like this.
Ophelia Kosovo had its autonomy until the early 90s, when the serbs degraded it.
Dennis Ilic Kosovo became a part of Serbia in 1912, before that it was under the Ottoman rule. It always consisted an Albanian majority. In antiquity, the territory of todays Kosovo was called Dardania an ancient Illyrian tribe whose descendants are the Kosovar Albanians. The Slavic tribes (such as: Serbs) came into the balkans together with Avar tribes in the 7th and 8th century. So actualy it doesn't make any sense how could it be always serbian or yugoslavian, when never has the majority within Kosovo been of slavic ancestry. Some serbs may justify Kosovo as theirs by saying that they thought a battle against the ottoman empire in the Battle of Kosovo in the 14th century. But they always forget the mention that within the Serbian army there were also albanians fighting against the invasive turks and they also always tend to forget that the armies of the north (Poland, Hungary etc.) came to help serbia, and they stil lost it.
I usualy don't bother with ultra-nationalist serbs, but when it comes to Kosovoa, its independence was deserved, the Albanians have always demanded independence and they have always suffered under the Yugoslav authorities.
This Ukrainian officer ultimately went over to the side of Russia, while maintaining his rank. I think that he is even already participating in the war

@mumi Babo You don't send regulars to besiege and affect the takeover (likely ordered to be bloodless) while having them function as soldiers of no nation. If you have specially-trained troops then that's what you use them for.
@@lynxyt_194 He's right dumbass...
Thank you vice, I had no idea what's going on with those both countries till you uploaded the video. Keep the videos, I really like them all. You are one of my fav youtube channels atm!
Do you live under a rock? Or is it that you like to kiss the feet of VICE?
I would not trust any news source.. Most of it is opinions backed up by facts but never all of them and never full story. This is game of politicians and all they want to do is make you agree with them.
Vice news never had a better end card "To be continued" :)
I was on crimea on 2012 it was looks like abandoned,then I came back at 2018 it was looks perfectly nice
You stupid lier you cant enter crimea, only if u are russian u can. moron...
@@fstrelok2580 and I also asked a few people who lived there about situation they said that with Russia they more comfy
U called me a lier without any evidence but my story not about a great Russia which is touch’s u cuz u r Ukrainian or Russia nvm-my story is just sharing to other people around the world my story
Only God knows the truth.
Your fact doesnt cancel fact what Crimea was annexed by Russia in 2014. Слава Украине!
@@user-gf5ow5qu5w well it states that Crimea ''majority russian'' is better off now. Means Ukrainians were fucking Crimra Up
ah yes much development Russia is so developed.
This was when VICE used to be good. I used to have so much respect for VICE when it focused on getting down to the grit of the situation, and this is probably the best example of it. Now a days it seems that VICE has lost its purpose and is only a ghost of what it used to be...
U mind elaborating
@Marshmallow Man paid by the CIA
This is because at that time the US had little to no interest in what was going on in Ukraine. Now, the US and NATO are practically fighting a proxy war in Ukraine, and they are not going to let journalists report anything that harm their interest.
like when vice made some good docu on azov
@Jawan Bakhat Cheema That's completely unrelated. Vice just reports dogshit now, regardless. They posted photos of an entire bullet casing stuck in a fence claiming it was a bullet shot at them. They're just not good journalists anymore.
Can we please take a moment to appreciate the underappreciated legend 03:28.
Respect to those women singing. Takes courage to stand between two groups of opposed armed men and sing to try to bring down tensions.

BREAKING NEWS: Russia invades Russia without invading
Russians inviades with invading
Viktor S Russia drives into a place with guns: causes a civil war during a civil war
BREAKING NEWS: Russian commented about Russia without commenting
BREAKING NEWS: Russia invades a sovereign nation, sends arms to separatists and shells it's neighbours with artillery. Russia even manages to indirectly down a civilian airliner in the process. Then russia pretends to be the victim and says it's justified in its aggression. Putin is a fucking thug.
@Dennis Bakker educate me please
Probably some of the finest reporting of this conflict is this Russian Roulette series.
"Step aside", the audacity to order anybody around when you invaded his home.
I can't believe people in Ukraine are killing each other over their opinion on the Russian occupation while here in America, the hardest question anyone has is "should I take another selfie?"
....Well should I take another selfie....?
Seperta Zen Take a selfie of your ass
IPlayScaryGames And it seems like that the general public agrees with me, only a stupid American would want to take a selfie while other people are dying. Now go somewhere else to troll, and stalk
afg96 you just took the words right out of the mouth. seriously, I could not have said that better.
afg96 Yeah, you're right. But funny thing is I wasn't stalking you I just randomly came across you.
Wow, such brave reporting. I love when he try's to talk to the soldier.

Dear VICE, please resume this series
Там "Зодьдатен"за решеткой ограды, прям с мольбой смотрят "Заберите нас с собой")))
Its weird seeing the first dispatch and thinking during than that nothing would happen to the extent it is at today.
+Chris Moore What's even more stunning is that Pooty thought he'd get away with it all, and the world wouldn't notice! He screwed up, badly. Not the best tactician, that Pooty.
But if you think about it, he in some way got away with it too an extent (i.e. taking crimea).
He stole Crimea, that's true. But do you think the world looks at it as legit? Or does he just look like a creepy dictator, doing what dictators do? I recently visited southern Russia, and even the people there think the cost of sanctions and international isolation was too high.
Agh, I feel like more than 75% of the people watching this are idiots, did you even read up on how in the 1950s Russia's premier was drunk and gave Crimea to the ukies by accident? Did you ever read up on how around 90% of Crimea wanted to go with Russia? For fck's sake, are you really that stupid to believe whatever you hear on this shitty news channel?
Zee Utuber : hahahahahaha! Where did you hear THAT?
Krushchev was neither drunk nor reckless when he ceded control of Crimea to the Ukrainian SSR. You see, during WW2, Crimea was cut off from the Moscow to Sevastopol supply line, and consequently thousands of Crimeans died of starvation. Honestly it was just bad planning by the central government, another famine. So after the war, Ukraine was still producing almost all the grain in the Soviet Union, and Krushchev dictated to the Ukrainians that we were now in control of feeding these poor indigent Crimeans. In 1954, this was a huge burden for us, and we were not happy to have these added mouths to feed. But within 3 years, all of Crimea was well fed and much happier. And consequently Krushchev looked like a genius for this move.
The time for anyone to complain about Ukraine owning Crimea was back in Feb. 1954, not now! We rehabilitated this poor, starving province and put it back on its feet. Now of course, its a gem that everyone wants. But who actually DESERVES to own Crimea? The country with the legal title to it, of course.............and that's Ukraine!
This history lesson was brought to you by a former Soviet citizen, now a Ukrainian citizen, who actually knows the history better than anyone..............because I lived it.
Not many people know this has been going on for so long
3:35 the soldier just moon walked lmao
Oh god, that true
Russia- Invaders Ukraine and takes over ..
Ukrainian military - *am I a joke to you?
@Toby Peters LOL 😂
Russian military is far better then them anyways in terms of size, strength and strategy.
The Russian would answer Yes.

Нет оккупации Украины!!! Нет вторжения в Украину!!! Ибо Крым не Украина и за 22 года ею не стал!!!
А ты думаешь у солдатов не болело сердце когда они видели их братьев из Беркута в огне и под обстрелом? Украинцы били служащий на страну, они дали клятву. А этих попросила Россиия сотрудничать. Что они по твоему должны были ответить?
Maxim Maletsky Беркут и честь мундира теперь синонимы. Читай мой пост внимательно.
Правильно он не Украина так что мы его забираем)
@@mikhailkovalenko2333 идиот Крым был Украиной даже по официальным данным России и подписанным между Россией и Украиной договорам . крымский "Беркут" давал присягу Украине и перебежал на ту сторону - "честь мундира" :))))))
@@balian736 видимо ты еще мал и глуп, раз не видишь очевидное. крымский Беркут давал присягу защищать закон и порядок, и он с честью выполнил свою клятву
I remember waking up every day watching these videos back in 2014...
I had no idea this would be the kindle for WW3.
Calm down. No WW3. Just a provocation. Cost to NATO and EU will be huge financially. Putin knows he can’t go toe to toe with NATO and win, nor can he pay the price of a Ukraine invasion in blood and treasure.
@@dolphin069 lets just hope you are right
@@dolphin069 quite alot has changed since we last spoke. Did your views on this change at all?
@@Emma__Smith yeah. Depressing as it gets. Didn’t appreciate Putins mental state in all this. The ravings of a strong man leader who has lost his people and has no where else to go. This is why we ditch them after ten years maximum. I guess we squeeze the oligarchy until their balls bleed and they end him. So many western politicians took so much russian money and it now it shows. Any other way and there will be a huge loss of life.
Major gag after seeing your 🇺🇦🤮
2014- Completely chill military occupation
2022- Violent military occupation
I honestly didn't expect things to escalate the way it did
@Sickotato I meant "chill" as in minimal violence. In terms of the ongoing military occupation of Ukrainian territories, this was hardly violent in comparison to other military occupation.
Russia wants all of Ukraine not just a small area!
They steal land, just look at Georgia and Moldova.
Если кто ещё не понял - наши войска являются гарантом неприкосновенности Крыма до его юридического отделения в федеративную часть(Украины). Хотели бы захватить - давно захватили, ещё на первой волне про-российских протестов, тут цель другая, и я её поддерживаю: не допустить развала, стычек с заезжими провокаторами и антироссийского правительства на исконно русской земле с русским же населением.
1 Наша армия сама может крым защитить.
2 Русские нах там не нужны.
3 Не существует никаких агрессоров в украине кроме русских окупантов.
Viktor M
1. Ваша армия подчиняется новому правительству и априори не может защитить от него.
2. Русские "там" живут-поживают с 1783 года если чё.
3. Мыслишь по средневековому. Сейчас вся война перешла на уровень полит технологий. Политически Украину буквально рвут на тряпки ЕС и США, русские войска - гарант независимости самоопределения жителей Крыма - в большинстве этнических русских.
Ken32 Вы знаете, что вас не поддержала ни одна страна? Все признали это агрессией, даже ваши самые близкие союзники. В Крыму был полный порядок, пока ваши войска не пришли. Это настолько абсурдно заявлять, что они пришли навести порядок, что злости не хватает. У нас нет анти-российских настроений, только против Кремля, не путайте. Только в новом правительстве четыре человека выходца из России, а пример министр еврей по национальности. Вы жертва пропаганды.
В следствии этой неадекватности грядет развал вашей экономики. Вы и представить не можете какой пиздец грядет, из-за истерики вашего президента.
Ken32 Назовите хоть одну страну. То, что вы пишите - заблуждение. Поясняю: парламент у нас легитимный, в этом сомнений быть не может - парламент голосует за конституцию образца 2004 года - в парламенте голосуют за новую кандидатуру премьер-министра - премьер-министр в рамках полномочий новой конституции формирует кабинет министров - в парламенте голосуют за исполняющего обязанности президента - на 25 мая объявляются президентские выборы. В чем не легитимность?
Бандеровцы и профашисты - это ярлыки и возможно предмет дискуссии, приведите пару аргументов. Вы слабо понимаете украинские реалии и пишите стандартную пропагандистскую версию. Я могу описать хронологию и мотивы протестов, как участник событий. Так же вы слабо представляете насколько вовлечённой во все процессы была российская сторона.
Про ТС и ЕС, опять же это предмет дискуссии. По сути ТС Украине ничего не дает: в отличии от Белоруссии и Казахстана, Украина является членом ВТО и членом зоны свободной торговли СНД. Поэтому я вообще слабо понимаю зачем Украине ТС.
С вашей стороны произошла типичная интервенция и «мародерство». В страну в которой скоро случится дефолт, после очень непростой и для многих противоречивой победы - Путин, как шакал пришел, похоже, чтобы сделать тут территорию хаоса, как Приднестровье.
Без жертв потому что мы не собираемся стрелять в наших братьев и вестись на провокации. Ваши военные, которые кстати скрывают свою принадлежность к России, нагло захватывают военные базы - провоцируя конфликт. Это абхазский сценарий - вам нужен повод для войны, чтобы мы первые выстрелили.
И мое мнение не изменится, если будет нужно снова выходить - я выйду. Все это долгий и сложный оздоровительный процесс, который нужно пережить на пути цивилизованного государства. И, никто вас не обвиняет, просто - сьебитесь.
O Jack
Это не пропагандистская версия, это моё мнение со стороны. Дай Бог вам здоровья, цивилизации и правды.

Man, you gotta love this reporter.
Insane to watch this back now and know what has happened between then and now
justice happened, people are happy
Injustice occured, Russian did have no right to invade Ukraines crimea
US does not have the right to invade Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, Batman and the rest of the world.
It was Russia's land their men died there and just because a leader gave it to them doesn't mean anything. Russia has that land for memory and for respect Ukraine has it for more buildings.
So now Iraq, Afganistan, Syria and rest of the world is part of US territory?
