LEX IS GOING TO GET A RUSSIAN HISTORY LESSON FROM PUTIN, THE OLD MAN IS GOING TO TELL HIM HOW THE RUSSIANS CAN CLAIM HALF THE WORLD AND LEX WILL NOT SAY A SINGLE WORD ABOUT IT. :)
Who cares. Most of Lex's audience is pretty free thinking. I don't support the west and it's arming of Ukraine but it doesn't mean I didn't completely appreciate understanding his position and his presentation on the podcast. Don't try to equate anything that might be favorable to Russia as some sort of bot when both sides clearly have their points.
The lack of video of actual combat in Ukraine is wild. I don't mean people shooting at something off camera or some indeterminate video of something exploding.
Do you use X ? Hundreds of videos on there . Also, the soldiers on the front don't exactly have cell phones and have forgotten to snap their family back 😁
This makes no sense. NATO and nuclear weapons in countries surrounding Russia is like Russia going into a military alliance with Mexico and Canada and putting nuclear weapons on the border.
after Ukraine got invaded, natos border moved Nato can be in st peters burg in less than 3 hours now. it was never some bs made up story about ukraine joning nato. Putler tought he would walk and and take with Putler rought the ukranians would back him.
bro the post soviet countries doesn’t like russia because of the aggression from the past, ofc there will be nukes. mexico and canada are friendly with the united states. if russia neighbors have good relations then they wouldn’t had joined nato lol….
I hate it's dubbed lol I prefer hearing their voices speaking Ukrainian or Russian and reading subtitles, it doesn't seem genuine to me listening to an ai
Elensky has no insight into how Putin thinks. Compare their q&a at the Normandy Format meeting; Putin was as usual lightyears ahead of the other leaders.
I dont understand why so many people in America talk shit about Zelensky? He seems like he actually gives a damn about his people and country. He didn't run to the safety of another country at his first opportunity, he stayed and helped his people. Id love America to have a president like him, unlike the two scumbags we just got to pick from.
He is being paid millions of dollars to sign away all the natural resources to the ownership of the US, UK, and France. When this war is over he will fly away to London with his millions of dollars, what remains of Ukraine will be owned by the West. The Uke people will be defeated by the east and their entire wealth robbed by the west for generations to come.
People are naive, don’t do enough research, jump to silly conclusion and fall for conspiracy propaganda. Zelensky is fantastic leader, anybody, ESPECIALLY from USA should be supporting and cheering him on. It’s sad some people are justifying Putin’s war.
He's a cokehead tool of the CIA and nazi Nato...if he cared about his people he'd have signed the Minsk Agreements like his election promise said he would do. Instead he got pwned by Bozo Boris Yawnson into sending his people to devastation.
Ukraine is not a wall against Russia. Is the oposite of that. It has plain acess to Russia and moscow. Thats why for Russia conquering till the river would be important, so it can guarantee nato wont have that easy acess to moscow. The other regions (besides of some other small areas) have too many montains and are difficult to penetrate through ground. For nato, having acess to ukraine is like having acess to greenland too. It offers new ways of countering and surveling russia.
@tl1837 The purpose is to have a block. There is a reason why many countries when invade look for that type of safe zone. Israel is doing that too. Any difficulty you put on your enemy is a win. Look at yemen. Those guys hold for so long, besides of so many brutal attacks from the west, because of how the terrain (lots of mountains) is and the fight culture that got formed because of it. Terrain is important. That was also true in ww2 and one of the factor for the germans losing.
I'm certainly not a huge Trump fan, but I'm also certainly not a weeping progressive who thinks he is equivalent to Hitler. As far as I am concerned, Ukraine is the fulcrum about which Trump's presidency hangs. If he can show he is strong against Putin and in supporting Ukrainian independence, then he can be a success, if not then he cannot.
You can still develop your country without being in the EU. Is China in the EU, is Japan in the EU? Is South Korea in the EU, is UAE in the EU? This guy doesn’t know what his talking about.. Call me a Russian troll or whatever but this Zelenskyy guy doesn’t know or understands his enemies and that is why his losing the war..
My main takeaway from this interview is that Zelenskyy is way less wise and thoughtful than some people portray him to be. After all, he's a comedian who went for elections as a joke. Granted we're hearing a translation, but there are no deep and interesting ideas here.
Putin got 88% and you can WATCH his rallies…some are bigger than trumps…. Zelensky cancelled elections…as of last May he is the official “dictator”, (fighting for “democracy”)…he also prevents ppl from crossing the border, and they have forced conscription where Russia is volunteered military….just SOME differences….all verifiable FACTS
@@aaf1044he hasn’t been the leader since May…that’s when their elections were SUPPOSED to be….but he cancelled them indefinitely “Fighting for Democracy “………….LOL
Nice russian bot spewing russian propaganda about zelensky being a cocaine user (rumor first started by russian politicians).. cocaine users have a habbit of constantly touching their nose, something that zelensky does not do. btw why did Putin kill russian hero Yevgeny Prigozhin? Can any of you russian bots answer that?

@@ТатьянаЧ-ж4ш You're as influential as a Russian vote count
@@joanndeck4315 nope, no you're not, you're a Russian bot
Keep the dialogue going,there needs a platform.
I wanna see a psychological side by side comparison of trump and Zelenskyy
Both big talkers….anyone who’s been around a bullshitter recognizes it …exhausting word salad and nonsense
The lack of video of actual combat in Ukraine is wild. I don't mean people shooting at something off camera or some indeterminate video of something exploding.
What about the recent video with a knife fight?
Do you use X ? Hundreds of videos on there . Also, the soldiers on the front don't exactly have cell phones and have forgotten to snap their family back 😁
plenty on Reddit ;)
Waiting for interview with Putin
Nurply 🎉❤
можете не ждать
go watch the interview with tucker. It would be all the same all over again, why do you need another one
@@SpaceMarine113Tucker was soft and didn’t challenge anything he said
Neither did Lex.@@Canaduck9561
This makes no sense. NATO and nuclear weapons in countries surrounding Russia is like Russia going into a military alliance with Mexico and Canada and putting nuclear weapons on the border.
Ok, now tell me which countries surrounding Russia have nuclear weapons stationed in them...
after Ukraine got invaded, natos border moved Nato can be in st peters burg in less than 3 hours now. it was never some bs made up story about ukraine joning nato. Putler tought he would walk and and take with Putler rought the ukranians would back him.
@Matsen76 nuclear-capable weapons - Poland, despite the trties.
Holy shit people are so unbelievably stupid. hahaha if you don't know shit about Geo politics just keep your damn mouth shut.

I assume, my bad, that every single person watching Lex's channel can read. Why THIS? Love from Poland.
I personally listened to this during my long commute drive, so I appreciate the translation.
It's to experience Zelenskyy having trouble forming sentences in Ukrainian...
Why is it dubbed?
they did the interview in ukranian. AI used to replicate his voice
@@dommtu Good. I can read. His voice matters.
I hate it's dubbed lol I prefer hearing their voices speaking Ukrainian or Russian and reading subtitles, it doesn't seem genuine to me listening to an ai

Ukraine is a Nazi regime.
Agreed
Back to moscow
You’re full of crap, any nation would be blessed to have a leader such as Zelensky. Victory to 🇺🇦

Hail Zelenzky
5:51 💯
Time to make a deal, Zelenskyy…gravy train stops January 20th.
nationalist tries to explain how multinational countries exist be like
ww3
My main takeaway from this interview is that Zelenskyy is way less wise and thoughtful than some people portray him to be. After all, he's a comedian who went for elections as a joke.
Granted we're hearing a translation, but there are no deep and interesting ideas here.
I couldn’t agree more!
Nice try russian bots🫠
A former actor come comedian who was elected with 73% of the vote of the Ukrainian people.
How so? He answered every question concisely, with facts , multiple languages, what “ideas” shall you propose in his shoes?
Putin got 88% and you can WATCH his rallies…some are bigger than trumps….
Zelensky cancelled elections…as of last May he is the official “dictator”, (fighting for “democracy”)…he also prevents ppl from crossing the border, and they have forced conscription where Russia is volunteered military….just SOME differences….all verifiable FACTS
All I can say is that Putin is not a drug addict
How could you possibly know that?
@thowl7065 Well we have no proof that Bitler played his baby grand with his Pppppppeenis
He's just a mass murdering despot.
@@thowl7065Right, what an unbelievably stupid thing to say!
Putin is drugged up on power.
I don't trust the guy.
Too bad, because he’s a fantastic leader.

Putin is not
@seanh4841 🤣😂🤣😂🤣 please 🙄

Nice russian bot spewing russian propaganda about zelensky being a cocaine user (rumor first started by russian politicians)..

btw why did Putin kill russian hero Yevgeny Prigozhin? Can any of you russian bots answer that?
@@seanh4841no, Putin is not…correct. This guy sounded like he was telling a tale at some bar….VERY unprofessional
Damn I'm pro russia but he almost changed my mind...
What was exactly what he said that almost changed your mind? Just curious?
The murder, rape and kidnap of women and children didn’t change your mind, mate?
I'd love to hear why on earth you would be pro-russian? Outside of propaganda there is little to no reason
@@Calebe428There plenty of reasons. Ukraine started the war after the coup of 2014, and now they are pushing for ww3 just to save their asses.
