what no one seems to want to talk about is the fact that eastern Eu counties like Poland and Lithuania are very hawkish on this conflict. They want to pay back for their defeat at the hands of the soviets during the 2nd world war and subsequent occupation by to soviets.

The pre 1990 Eu countries are not that interested, they want to keep the hostilities manageable and they don't want to risk a war with russia. Countries like France and German have a very comfortable life and why would they sacrifice that for Ukraine.
Why should ANY country have to risk war or sacrifice their security for Ukraine? Ukraine (regime) brought it on themselves. If they hadn't violated the Minsk accords again and again, terrorizing Russian speakers in the Donbas for 8 years on end, then none of this would have happened. But they have...and this is the result. And the US/EU? They supported them throughout their endeavors, thinking they could weaken Russia.

The last one will by pretty bad
@@glenncordova4027 Russia has had months to prepare, and it's hardware is already positioned close by or easily moved by their very extensive rail network
@Olaf Sigurson You obviously haven't been closely following this conflict. The way Ukraine lies is astonishing, partly because all of mainstream media echoes and embellishes their claims with little to no vetting. Does Russia lie? Yes, they lie, but I've found their reports to be much closer to the truth than the stuff coming out of the Ukraine MoD.
@Olaf Sigurson Right, so when Russians claimed soldiers of Snake Island were not killed by them, but captured and they were all alive and well, they lied? No they didn't and they even returned them all back in POW exchange. And it's Ukrainians who pronounced their own men dead prematurely. So no, it's not always one sided, both sides tell lies and truths. Or hide the truths by not saying anything, when that suits them.
@Aditya Chavarkar As long as the “conflict and violence” is not on an EU member’s territory. It would be interesting to hear what the Schulz/Macron/EU rhetoric would be if Russia conducted its‘Special Military Operation’ on the former East Germany.
As an a American infantry veteran I would like to say to Germany we defended your freedoms and it's time to pay back by giving Ukraine more weapons and ammo
The 7 PzH2000 self-propelled howitzers arrived in Ukraine (probably yesterday). Obviously more weapons e.g. 3 M270 MLRS, 30 Gepard SPAAGs, IRIS-T SLM and non-lethal aid will be sent once they’re ready and the Ukrainians know how to use them.
@@HingerlAlois You really need to research numbers. Most generic mainstream news viewers do. How many howitzers in the Russian army, how many in the Ukrainian army (not just western ones, which are in tiny quantities by comparison). How many tanks.... 15-20 minutes of effort on google will show you how absurdly small and strategically irrelevant the quantities of equipment you speak of are.
The Russian media say "57 officers including generals were targeted by Kalibr missile at Shirokaya Dacha in Zaporozhskaya Region", all the Western media say "RAFs claim they killed 60 generals, but it's ridiculous". Do they have translators at DW at all?
Yes, it is unbelievable, but please check the translation. When the Russian MOD makes an announcement, it has to be based on facts. They may not tell you the whole truth but they do not tell lies.
How many M777's you think the US army has? After WW II they neglected artillery relying more on aviation to support their troops. There is not much to send, they can't stay without it because Ukraine is in need now. The same goes for tanks and other heavy weapons. Western heavy weapons stockpiles are not bottomless well. Wake up, people.
Germany should set its eyes on Ukrainian oil and gas instead of Russian oil and gas. That might clear up their perspective. Shorter distance. Slightly lower costs. Prices probably decent. Focus on training and delivery, pushing the Russians out and developing those Ukrainian gas fields. Accelerate a clean power program and convert to electric heat. With a good plan and action, something Germans can be good at, everybody will be warm in the winters ahead. Industry will have the energy it needs. I wouldn't be surprised to find that a lot of Russian money has certain key people sitting on the fence. Those left out of that money need to push the better agenda.
@Anonymous Bosch So when Western statesmen say NATO is a defensive alliance, Russia does not believe that? When Russia says Ukrainian interactions with the West are an existential threat, should Western statesmen believe that? Are both sides lying about their true intentions? Isn't this about money, and more of it, for both sides? Are both sides guilty, or are both sides innocent?
@Anonymous Bosch Prior to invading in February 2022, did Russia provide legal assistance to ethnic Russians in Ukraine with legal complaints against Ukrainians or their government? Were Ukrainian courts non-existent or non-responsive? To what extent did Russia observe the Ukrainian government providing legal assistance to Ukrainians in Russia? Is that not the proper way to address claims of mistreatment?
I thought Zelenskyy was a comedian, he doesn't tell any jokes. Well I guess I take that back, he did say... " I don't need a ride, I need ammo"; and that was pretty good.
I hear many people fuss about heavy weapons and many forget to ask where did all the heavyweapons, tanks, planes pieces of artillery and many more that they and the west prepared for 8yrs for this conflict go? It's as if Ukraine never had anything in its arsenal it will all go the same drain just like the howitzers, switchblades, javilines and the like
It has all been destroyed. Ukraine acually had the second largest army in Europe before 24 february. They are just letting you know very slowly. The western media have been covering this or have been fooled by the Ukrainian regim to milk money and weapons from the west. But the truth is that most of it has been destroyed and the systems that they now send isnt even covering the losses they had from beginning. The soldiers doesnt have the education to maintain the systems and the m777 howitzers have been really badly recieved. They break quickly after short use and the russians find them with their artillery fire search equipment and destroy them because they take time to desemble and move. I heard the bayraktars wasnt so good either because of the russians electric / gps jamming "weapons" The Ukrainians logistic lines are heavily pounded so its not looking good at all for the Ukrainians.
US and Germany demands Ukrainian soldiers to pass live ammo drills with they new systems to let them take home their new toys. This takes some time, but it is happening right now.
No point sending weapons if the UAF doesn’t know how to use them. And their latest want list is ridiculous. 1,000 howitzers? Who has 1,000 Howitzers to spare?

Germany is out for itself, as usual. Its dependant on Russian gas so will only do enough to stagnate and stall the fight in the hope that Russia will cease hostilities.

I don’t know why Ukraine think m777 would be better than the self propelled piece they already have. M777 is a towed artillery, more importantly, it was designed to be air lifted. Ukraine doesn’t have any Blackhawk to go with that artillery
Americans believe everything American is superior. Like when press talked about the m777s, they insisted they massively outranged everything Soviet...but they only compared it to the D20 and D30 guns, which, while most numerous, are not the only thing in the Ukrainian arsenal. There are two types of howitzers, 152mm calibre, which Ukraine possessed a combined 471 of at the start of the war, which either equaled the M777's range (always quoted with the base-bleed/rocket boosted shells) or bettered it with cheaper conventional ammo. We have received 100 or so m777s and it is doubtful that every shell is the base-bleed high tech kind. Is it really sensible to stop supplying shells for a much greater number of Soviet artillery, which is often just as good, for the sake of demanding aid and helping US corporations? Ukraine should use everything at its disposal. But, you see, the western media tend to be shills for arms companies, as they were for pharma companies the last few years.
Ukraine doesn't need the EU to be wasting its time arguing about whether it can apply for EU membership. It needs heavy weapons and it needs them today.
Why should EU give weapons when Ukraine is one of the most corrupt and racist country in the world before the war. Is image of Ukraine being the good guys is a joke. They are as bad a Russia.
Heavy weapons ? What about bodies to operate them ? I don’t believe the Ukrainian claims they’re overwhelmed with volunteers. I’ve heard the opposite. Many Ukrainian fighters have fled or defected to Russia. We’ve been lied to constantly about this conflict from both sides and the media.
Um, western weapons are returning ... to the West. And that way through "third countries". For example, Javelin, 1 piece, for about $ 30,000. That's a "good price", isn't it?

Attempting to independently verify anything Russia says reminds one of the fable “the boy who cried wolf” or any other story used to illustrate why one should not lie.

(They say that people with sociopathic and other serious personality disorders have arrested development at around the age of 12)
I think recently a ukranian official got removed because all the "mass russian rapes" that were reported were lies. And things like that happened a lota times during this war. So I dont know why are we acting like Russia is lying here.
And Russia is intent on fighting to the last separatist and Belorussian. It's interesting that the breakaway areas are mobilising fully (and being used as cannon fodder, according to Strelkov), that Belarus looks to be on the verge on mobilising, yet Russia is avoiding it.

The main problem is that our politicians take credit for promising to help Ukraine, but do not and often cannot not force their own bureaucracies to comply with their promises, enabling their bureaucracies to frustrate the fulfilment of those promises because those bureaucracies have their own agenda, (which inevitably is the Fabian Socialist agenda). Regards, Geoff. Reeks
Hard to agree with this being the main problem. The agenda of the billionaires and multinational companies controlling so much of what is going on in the U.S. and EU have their own crony capitalist "don't rock the boat" agenda. They just wanna continue bribing politicians, to evade paying taxes and have lenient (if any) regulations on the legislation impacting how they can maximize profits. These corporations and billionaires couldn't care less about human lives or "democracy". At this moment a billionaire like Jeff Bezos or Elon Musk, each have a net worth exceeding the state budget of Denmark. Bernard Arnault & family are almost there, and probably have a net worth around 10% of the state budget of France. There are plenty of resources, but they are frozen as being part of a handful of peoples endless greed after power and wealth, detrimental to everybody and everything except for themselves.
Western audience tend to forget that Ukraine was the most equipped and the biggest military in Europe before the war. Ukraine military is bigger than the whole NATO. Russia wiped put most of their weapon depot with no fuss. What makes anyone think than more weapons will make any difference. Russia isn’t your average opponent. Russia is the most powerful military in the world and for the Ukraine’s operation, they only utilized 5% of their military. Europe should not play with fire. If Russia decides to wage war with NATO, NATO is over.
A lot of the equipment is there in surrounding friendly countries, but personnel has to be trained to use these systems first before the can be deployed, these systems are incredibly good but you can't learn how to operate them overnight it takes time.
@@the_grand_tourer what would be the point of that? US service personnel are already stationed in all the frontline NATO countries, teaching somebody used to 21st century technology takes time, let alone those used to using old Soviet weapons systems that are obsolete. Ukraine is currently losing ground very, very slowly as they fight for every inch of their country. By doing so they are both gaining time to train up new personnel, train existing personnel on the new western weapons systems and at the same time degrade the Russian front line military, both in trained personnel and weapons systems. This won't be over very quickly unless Putin is truly dying of cancer, it will take time, one of the reasons the Russians have returned to old fashioned artillery is that all their guided systems use western computer tech and chips and because of the sanctions they can't get any to replace those used, plus Putin will always be forced to keep beck troops and weapons in reserve in case NATO ever do become involved and also China, they might appear pals but there are disputed border areas China would grab if they could.

Its mind boggling to think any weapons are even able to get inside Ukraine and delivered to the areas which need them. Lets hope Ukraine will continue to get the weaponry it needs and is able to obtain it without getting destroyed.
You DO realize NATO is dangerously close to depleting their own stockpile, right? That continuing to throw the massive amount of weapons (it's an insane number) the Ukrainians want is literally impossible because they simply don't have them. They'd be stripped bare and that goes directly against their national security interests.

So you believe Russians should be allowed to withdraw onto their territory and be allowed to resupply, and reinforce, so they can resume their offensive? Without the threat of counter attack by Ukrainian forces? Is Russian territory sacrosanct and Ukrainian territory is up for grab?
I would be careful--Putin said he would not invade Finland--just like he wasn't going to invade Ukraine.
what no one seems to want to talk about is the fact that eastern Eu counties like Poland and Lithuania are very hawkish on this conflict. They want to pay back for their defeat at the hands of the soviets during the 2nd world war and subsequent occupation by to soviets. They all know that as long as Russia exists in it current size, they can never feel safe. The pre 1990 Eu countries are not that interested, they want to keep the hostilities manageable and they don't want to risk a war with russia. Countries like France and German have a very comfortable life and why would they sacrifice that for Ukraine.
Why should ANY country have to risk war or sacrifice their security for Ukraine? Ukraine (regime) brought it on themselves. If they hadn't violated the Minsk accords again and again, terrorizing Russian speakers in the Donbas for 8 years on end, then none of this would have happened. But they have...and this is the result. And the US/EU? They supported them throughout their endeavors, thinking they could weaken Russia.

@Olaf Sigurson Right, so when Russians claimed soldiers of Snake Island were not killed by them, but captured and they were all alive and well, they lied? No they didn't and they even returned them all back in POW exchange. And it's Ukrainians who pronounced their own men dead prematurely. So no, it's not always one sided, both sides tell lies and truths. Or hide the truths by not saying anything, when that suits them.

The amounts of heavy weapons is nowhere near sufficient the amount Ukraine needs in this war. They need hundreds and hundreds of M777’s and HIMARS.
They don't need that many, but definitely more.
@TheFastAndThe Dead ....True but they are being trained first.
@TheFastAndThe Dead...maybe, but it just proves NATO was just trying to arm Ukraine to defend themselves. Not be a threat to Russia.
They don't need weapons, they need to surrender before it's too late.
How many M777's you think the US army has? After WW II they neglected artillery relying more on aviation to support their troops. There is not much to send, they can't stay without it because Ukraine is in need now. The same goes for tanks and other heavy weapons. Western heavy weapons stockpiles are not bottomless well. Wake up, people.
Western artillery and armaments are months late....
Germany should set its eyes on Ukrainian oil and gas instead of Russian oil and gas. That might clear up their perspective. Shorter distance. Slightly lower costs. Prices probably decent. Focus on training and delivery, pushing the Russians out and developing those Ukrainian gas fields. Accelerate a clean power program and convert to electric heat. With a good plan and action, something Germans can be good at, everybody will be warm in the winters ahead. Industry will have the energy it needs. I wouldn't be surprised to find that a lot of Russian money has certain key people sitting on the fence. Those left out of that money need to push the better agenda.
@Anonymous Bosch Think the oil and gas is what Russia is really after? Getting the people out of the way?
@Anonymous Bosch So when Western statesmen say NATO is a defensive alliance, Russia does not believe that? When Russia says Ukrainian interactions with the West are an existential threat, should Western statesmen believe that? Are both sides lying about their true intentions? Isn't this about money, and more of it, for both sides? Are both sides guilty, or are both sides innocent?
@Anonymous Bosch Prior to invading in February 2022, did Russia provide legal assistance to ethnic Russians in Ukraine with legal complaints against Ukrainians or their government? Were Ukrainian courts non-existent or non-responsive? To what extent did Russia observe the Ukrainian government providing legal assistance to Ukrainians in Russia? Is that not the proper way to address claims of mistreatment?
I thought Zelenskyy was a comedian, he doesn't tell any jokes.
Well I guess I take that back,

" I don't need a ride, I need ammo"; and that was pretty good.

It has all been destroyed. Ukraine acually had the second largest army in Europe before 24 february.
They are just letting you know very slowly.
The western media have been covering this or have been fooled by the Ukrainian regim to milk money and weapons from the west.
But the truth is that most of it has been destroyed and the systems that they now send isnt even covering the losses they had from beginning.
The soldiers doesnt have the education to maintain the systems and the m777 howitzers have been really badly recieved.
They break quickly after short use and the russians find them with their artillery fire search equipment and destroy them because they take time to desemble and move.

I don’t know why Ukraine think m777 would be better than the self propelled piece they already have. M777 is a towed artillery, more importantly, it was designed to be air lifted. Ukraine doesn’t have any Blackhawk to go with that artillery
Americans believe everything American is superior. Like when press talked about the m777s, they insisted they massively outranged everything Soviet...but they only compared it to the D20 and D30 guns, which, while most numerous, are not the only thing in the Ukrainian arsenal. There are two types of howitzers, 152mm calibre, which Ukraine possessed a combined 471 of at the start of the war, which either equaled the M777's range (always quoted with the base-bleed/rocket boosted shells) or bettered it with cheaper conventional ammo. We have received 100 or so m777s and it is doubtful that every shell is the base-bleed high tech kind. Is it really sensible to stop supplying shells for a much greater number of Soviet artillery, which is often just as good, for the sake of demanding aid and helping US corporations? Ukraine should use everything at its disposal. But, you see, the western media tend to be shills for arms companies, as they were for pharma companies the last few years.
Ukraine doesn't need the EU to be wasting its time arguing about whether it can apply for EU membership. It needs heavy weapons and it needs them today.
Why should EU give weapons when Ukraine is one of the most corrupt and racist country in the world before the war. Is image of Ukraine being the good guys is a joke. They are as bad a Russia.
Heavy weapons ? What about bodies to operate them ? I don’t believe the Ukrainian claims they’re overwhelmed with volunteers. I’ve heard the opposite. Many Ukrainian fighters have fled or defected to Russia. We’ve been lied to constantly about this conflict from both sides and the media.

Might get scary in Kiev. Hold on to your latte cup to prevent it from spilling.
It's very unlikely for generals to meet in one location 🤦...you see that's why reporters should stick to reporting and not give opinions on things they have no clue about.
They're reporting on Russian claims.
Are you saying it's common that countries will put 50 generals in the same room?
Please don’t tell me that you actually think that 50 generals would gather in one place. That’s absurd.
@@Thetequilashooter1 near the frontline at that!
I doubt they would need to meet in such large numbers , when they can have a secure computerized meeting.
Normally when a Comedian makes jokes others laugh. Ironically NATO, instead of laughing they believe those.😂😂😂😂
🤡🇷🇺🤡
Germany, your government is an embarrassment to those nations that ARE getting more heavy weapons into Ukraine ! Who's side are you really on ???
Germany and France need to pull their weight and contribute to the western war effort and come out from under the US Blanket
The main problem is that our politicians take credit for promising to help Ukraine, but do not and often cannot not force their own bureaucracies to comply with their promises, enabling their bureaucracies to frustrate the fulfilment of those promises because those bureaucracies have their own agenda, (which inevitably is the Fabian Socialist agenda).

Hard to agree with this being the main problem. The agenda of the billionaires and multinational companies controlling so much of what is going on in the U.S. and EU have their own crony capitalist "don't rock the boat" agenda. They just wanna continue bribing politicians, to evade paying taxes and have lenient (if any) regulations on the legislation impacting how they can maximize profits. These corporations and billionaires couldn't care less about human lives or "democracy". At this moment a billionaire like Jeff Bezos or Elon Musk, each have a net worth exceeding the state budget of Denmark. Bernard Arnault & family are almost there, and probably have a net worth around 10% of the state budget of France. There are plenty of resources, but they are frozen as being part of a handful of peoples endless greed after power and wealth, detrimental to everybody and everything except for themselves.
Western audience tend to forget that Ukraine was the most equipped and the biggest military in Europe before the war. Ukraine military is bigger than the whole NATO. Russia wiped put most of their weapon depot with no fuss. What makes anyone think than more weapons will make any difference. Russia isn’t your average opponent. Russia is the most powerful military in the world and for the Ukraine’s operation, they only utilized 5% of their military. Europe should not play with fire. If Russia decides to wage war with NATO, NATO is over.
Promises delivered in time to matter is what counts.
Ukraine lost the second russia intervened in thier civil war, any weapons sent delays the inevitable and costs ukrainian lives
-z-
A lot of the equipment is there in surrounding friendly countries, but personnel has to be trained to use these systems first before the can be deployed, these systems are incredibly good but you can't learn how to operate them overnight it takes time.
And there is no way none Ukrainian operators i.e. Polish, can be caught ... it'd open the door to Russian aggression towards Europe.
@@the_grand_tourer what would be the point of that? US service personnel are already stationed in all the frontline NATO countries, teaching somebody used to 21st century technology takes time, let alone those used to using old Soviet weapons systems that are obsolete. Ukraine is currently losing ground very, very slowly as they fight for every inch of their country. By doing so they are both gaining time to train up new personnel, train existing personnel on the new western weapons systems and at the same time degrade the Russian front line military, both in trained personnel and weapons systems. This won't be over very quickly unless Putin is truly dying of cancer, it will take time, one of the reasons the Russians have returned to old fashioned artillery is that all their guided systems use western computer tech and chips and because of the sanctions they can't get any to replace those used, plus Putin will always be forced to keep beck troops and weapons in reserve in case NATO ever do become involved and also China, they might appear pals but there are disputed border areas China would grab if they could.
@Jrs Ah yeah ... the American world perspective, if it ain't happening in America it ain't happening anywhere !!
@@oldbonesbushcraftrodjackso474 they take time to train someone who understands the same language, when they speak a differant language then you have to teach them to both speak English and read English as all the controls are surprisingly in English, and it all takes time.

I'm a citizen of the USA and know that you re attempting to paint with a broad brush.
The people I've encountered have a variety of opinions on any given topic.
The USA has its share of fools just like any other nation, but it also has its share of people wro who are intelligent and wise enough to render your statement inaccurate.
The EU Politicians said as like dogs barking
Germany needs to step up
Every other country has delivered heavy wepaons, UK, USA, France, Spain, Netherlands.
The sooner the west helps Ukraine to win the sooner the war will end and we can all get back to normal.
OIl, Gas, grain, inflation.
Helps Ukraine defeating Russia?! Really now... For Russia this is special military operation despite the large scale of it, they do not deploy and use even 1% of the fire power on their disposal. On other hand the commodities that you mention and used by EU are coming mainly from errr... Russia, the enemy of which you want to supply with heavy weapons so they can kill as many russians as they can. All of this sounds quite schizophrenic to me excuse my french.
Even if Zelensky wants to talk peace, his Master, the US regime will not allow it.
Actually he requested a meeting with Putin even suggested letting Donetsk go. Putin refused. So reality is something different and you really do need to get facts correct.
Meanwhile, do you know what's really going on in China?
Zelensky is referring to Lithuania blocking the Kaliningrad train and Russia possibly lashing out against Lithuania.
The only thing i know about Lithuania is that it's one of a few countries that recognizes Taiwan so go ahead, proceed.
Oh, Russia's gonna invade?
On one hand, more lives beyond Ukraine can be lost.
On the other hand, can they really afford a second front?
Well that wud be lashing out against NATO, so WW3.. Unlikely at this stage
russia will invade Lithuania after russia annexes Ukraine.
@@Steven-fv8xw with what army xD must bribg the cavalry back then....
So NATO can now enter the war?
Its mind boggling to think any weapons are even able to get inside Ukraine and delivered to the areas which need them. Lets hope Ukraine will continue to get the weaponry it needs and is able to obtain it without getting destroyed.
We see the weapons in action every day. Obviously they make it to the front.
You DO realize NATO is dangerously close to depleting their own stockpile, right? That continuing to throw the massive amount of weapons (it's an insane number) the Ukrainians want is literally impossible because they simply don't have them. They'd be stripped bare and that goes directly against their national security interests. Please, check the laundry list Ukraine is asking for...it's ridiculous, it's impossible, NATO cannot meet their demands.
Please give them what they need. Putin the murderer HAS to be stopped.
What could possibly happen to helmets promised by Germany that still in Germany? Russia can't do anything against Scholtz' promises because they are bulletproof.
They get western weapons and use but they end up being destroyed. That’s a number one target towards Russia and bombardment everything that is still standing
Is Germany making wild claims of support?
In what way is this war solving humanity problems?
The Russian soldier must go through very severe training. They have to be prepared to face any Ukrainian women or children they encounter.
Of course, when cowards use human shield.
Remember the Iraqi children with AKs?
Bit like the US snipers killing women and children, rot helcopter gunships killing journalists, hellfire missle strikes on a wedding party killing 100 in Afghan, etc etc.
The US is the ultimate killer of WOmen and children.
Julian Assange has exposed the cowardly US army/Air force and its targeting pf civillians.
Remember in Syria it was Russian/Iranian grunts who destroyed ISIS as the US were incapable(for that read cant fight man to man)
Zelensky funny news reporter 🤣😄😂
🤡
Ukraine will never ever drive Russia 🇷🇺 out of Ukraine, There will be no more Ukraine left.
I just read about 100 comments. No one mentions the shameful absence of UN!!!!!!!
Zelensky is a dangerous madman
