Man, it is so refreshing to see a member of our government have a calm, measured response to questions.
Yeah... and a decent, un-corruptible human-being with an understanding of the pride that comes with being in service to the people of this country.
Body languags shows a nervous snake.
@@tazragames6770 Clearly... you don’t know what you’re talking about. His entire life history doesn’t show anything like that. Grow up and try living a life that is worth something.
@@AngryNotSoOldHippy Yea.................when they let him out of the basement...........he pulls this on worldwide camera: th-cam.com/video/84aQmAd0pQc/w-d-xo.html
Brings a tear in your eye it makes you so proud he's YOUR president!
Refreshing !!! ha ha ! Anthony would open an US ice cream shop in Marioupole !!! it will refresh neo nazi fighters !
Very grateful to the American people for their support to us. Glad Mr Blinken could make it for the show, his role and work during these tough times cannot be overestimated
They are just pretending to help ...Btw where was the world when they were brutally massacring the middle east huh????
My Best wishes for your work Love and Peace to your family !😀
My Kind Regards My Dear I hope w see each other soon !!😀
My appreciation , i read this daily !😀
On behalf of the United States, you’re welcome.
Haha jk hope all is going well for you. 🙏
As a Russian watching the conflict unfold, it's pretty tough to see how the country's going down the drain and so many of my compatriots are happy to be along for the ride. Ukraine might come out of this a prosperous democracy beloved by the world, and Russia and its people a poor pariah state hated by the world
I do believe most people understand the price Russians pay for going against Putin. We all hope for a democratic and prosperous Russia. I’ve heard it took some Germans up to 15 years to comprehend and believe the truth of Hitlers atrocities, let’s hope that those in Russia who believe Putins lies come to their sanity long before that. ❤️
You are not russia you are just a traitor
@@hmmcinerneythey are under Putin for more than twenty years. If they didn't understand till now, they never will.
@@scottspencer6899 The ruble is propped up; it won't last. Other than that, I see you're all for more murdering of elderly folk and raping of little girls.
@@scottspencer6899 keep rooting for the invading war criminals,it says more about what type of person you are than anything else.
It's good when you have signs pointing to the trash.
Thanks.
As a Briton who follows US politics closely, I think Antony Blinken has so far done a very good job so far, and may be the best performing member of the Biden Administration. As he said, Vladimir Putin has so far got exactly the opposite of what he intended and is NATO’s best advertisement in years, a strong reminder why Nato is still necessary.
Nato chicken lost in Afghanistan and blamed my Pakistan army. Turkey does not accept racist Finland and racist Sweden joining. You cannot go against Allah will
Where do you follow US politics?
If you are watching Hollywood pundits like Colbert, or US msm, you no clue what is going on.
Sadly for Nato, it looks like Turkey should go.
The Biden "Administration" is a clown show. Freak of every description. Biden is just one of the Dual Citizens busy to work for the land of the Chosen. Bust most impressive is the guy who calls himself "Rachael" and thinks he is a woman.
@@oldsesalt8496 Turkey’s too important to NATO
My immense respect to Mr. Blinken and sincere gratitude from all the people of Ukraine! You are our true friend! 🤝
I also want to thank all Americans. We really appreciate your support and we will always remember it! 🇺🇦🇺🇲
Ok Nazi.....
What about andriy khlyuvnyuk and pink Floyd?

It's really awesome having respectable and knowledgeable people in government again. Thanks Steven.
Also, Ukraine could regain their economy by selling us their awesome stamps!
Amen
Yeah! Respectable people that fabricate evidence for the Iraq War, sold weapons to ISIS in Libya and Syria, armed and funded the Saudi genocide in Yemen, authorised the drone killings of tens of thousands of innocent civilians, and covered up American war crimes in no less than ELEVEN different countries.
And that doesn't even mention his lobbying work for some of the most evil corporations on the planet.
That's what you mean by "respectable" right?
You have lost your blipping mind.
@Zippy Thekid No need for tickles
Stamps, your kidding. So ignorant of the why and how this war started and how it was so easy to prevent.
Stephen Colbert truly does the American people a public service by having guests on who hold positions of power in our country, from both sides of the aisle, and asking them important questions and most importantly, _letting_ _them_ _speak_ . We're getting informed, we see another side of these important public figures, and Stephen still keeps it entertaining. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, i know not everyone cares about these matters, but for those of us who unenviably and unduly stress about politics, the news, and global events, Stephen is a godsend, whether one totally agrees with him or not. Be it President Obama or Chris Christie, there's going to be an intelligent, respectful, lively conversation where different viewpoints are heard and discussed, and I think that's so valuable. Obviously this shouldn't be viewed as a news source, but the extra context conversations like these bring is invaluable.
He allows us to laugh about it .
Plus Tony Blinken is hot. 🤩
Oh ..we don't unduly stress about these things.... it's well due stress.
I can’t even listen to his voice any more. He was funny on Comedy Central. I couldn’t be any more disappointed, norm should of got this job.
@@ghdh166. The best part is, you don't have to. If you don't like him don't listen.
As a Ukrainian, I want to thank everyone who supports us during this difficult period. You may not know it, but Ukraine was once a colony of Russia. These were hard bloody dark times. Many people were repressed, millions starved, and the Ukrainian language was suppressed. The secret of our courage is simple - we do not want it to happen again. God bless you all so war will never come to your home. I promise after the war to treat with a drink every American, British, Pole and all other people who supported us, if you come to my city)
As a Russian, i really hope your country will fight back successfully and retake all your territories, i hope this stupid cruel war will end soon, in your favor. I'm glad the whole world is on your side, and everyone is supporting you.
I really wish there was something i could do to help, i took part in protests when there were protests, but now they are all supressed, and protesting alone would be suicidal and useless. And with the majority of Russians believing this propaganda it feels rather hopeless to try to change their minds. I wrote "No war" with a marker in one public place, where i could avoid being detected, but that's about it.
I'm sorry if i'm not doing enough, i'm not sure what i can do and i am scared to be honest. I really hope you will all be okay. Good luck there, you will make it!
@@dinobirb8072 Thank you. I wish there were more people in Russia like you. I hope there will be peace soon, and we will see free independent Ukraine and free democratic Russia.
@@andriyy53 yeah i hope so too!
I live in a city with lots of Ukrainians. The Ukrainian community is selling cabbage rolls and perogies to help the people of Ukraine. As a Canadian, I strongly support Ukraine and have grown to love your country and people. I am proud of my many fellow Canadians who helped train Ukrainian troops and equally proud knowing there are many Canadians there fighting along side of your troops. Glory to Ukraine, God speed to victory, no pity for Russia.
@@zzzubmno2755 thank you! 🙏 ❤️ I hope one day I will visit Canada not as a refugee but like a tourist. I wish you peace and prosperity.
Thank you for this interview, sec. Blinken seems to be a great guy. As Ukraine's neighbor, we appreciate the huge help that US is providing them. Ukrainian people can win this fight, they don't need soldiers, but they need weapons and economic help against fascist russia. Please don't stop helping, it's important not just for Europe but for all free World. We need to show dictators and wannabe dictators that they have no place in 21st century.
My Best wishes for your work Love and Peace to your family !😀
My appreciation , i read this daily !😀
He is a great diplomat and a great and very humble, thoughtful guy. I like Tony a lot.
"I have seen abominable crimes committed by Azov."Back from Ukraine, Adrien Bocquet tells. Interview in French. Subtitles to help you. th-cam.com/video/ZoKnhXnp-Zk/w-d-xo.html
in 17th century small part of moedrn Ukraine peacefully become part of Russian empire.
Ukraine fought away from Poland!
--------
Russian empire / communists gave everything Ukraine had in 1991!
and in 20th century pretty much ukraines ruled USSR (outside Stalin who was georgian)
Antony is very hard working and I like that. He was a great choice for Secretary of State and I am so glad Biden chose him for his job , in Biden’s cabinet.
I am too. He is meant for this role.
Blinken is a good dude. We will roll out the red carpet in Australia if he wants to visit.
He was in Oz a few months ago
Red from the blood of your sworn enemies: the emu’s, as is tradition over there. As is the 21 boomerang salute
We already did. He’s very fond of Australia because (amongst other things) his stepfather was welcomed here as refugee/migrant for a while after WWII.

Just imagine if Trump and Pompeo were still in power. What a nightmare. Love Tony Blinken.
Russia would never have attacked Ukraine if Trump was in office .
Biden looks weak to the whole world .
NK is back at war with us again THX Biden for taking us 10 steps backwards.
I love how people say this won't happen under Trump and it's true, under Trump this would not have happened because Ukraine would not have a friend to turn too and Putin could have slowly strangled Ukraine into submission. As much as I dont think Biden is great, he relit the torch of hope and democracy and make the US a becon of righteousness and self determination.
I was thinking the same. Blinken is an articulate, intelligent person who is handling this situation well. Had it been left to the other two, there would be a bigger mess and Russia would be moving into the rest of Europe.
@@Kimberly-dt4ko An articulate, intelligent war criminal you mean
This evil prick has committed atrocities in more countries than either Pompeo or Trump could find on a map. It's not even close as to which is worse by any conceivable metric other than "Is mean to people he doesn't like"
I love Stephen. He's a great comedian and he is a terrific interviewer. He's so intelligent that he asks all the right questions.
Copy/paste these two titles on TH-cam to see what's really going on in Ukraine:
1. "Donbass Under Fire. Life in the Donetsk Republic under bombs | Dig Deep Documentary"
2. "Ukraine Donbass: Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow Documentary"
Listen to the cadence of Blinken's speech pattern, I hear Pete Buttegig, bright, articulate and punchy.
Nothing but respect for Ukraine! Standing up to a bully!
Better make sure to also vote against our own bully in the midterms cause that's not only helping America but also Ukraine. 💙
As a Russian-American who went through the collapse of the USSR I am feeling a sense of déjà vu. How the heck we are getting one dictator after another? What's wrong with us?
Once a nation falls into the trap of authoritarian rule, it's very hard to get out. Putin uses every evil trick in the book to maintain power. His attempts to further his dominion beyond the borders of Russia seem to go often unpunished by the free world. Very disturbing situation.
The Russian people are very good fighters, but they don't know how to fight there dictators for there freedom, this unfortunately is there biggest downfall and the Russian suffer greatly from this throughout history. It's time for Russia to be truly free.
It seems russian people are not able to fight much for their democracy and crave someone with a strong hand. At least those who were left after communist leaders murdered or imprisoned everyone who stood up and the rest fled. Only the simple, weak and drunk people remain and they are fine with dictators as long as they promise them food and alcohol.
Russia could have been a great country after the collapse of the USSR. It'd easily have been integrated into NATO, but NATO was built to protect democracy and Russia has never been a democracy and the leaders never wanted it to be. There was always conflicts as Russia unfortunately never wanted to let go of countries that wanted to breakaway from it. e.g Kosovo, Chechnya, Georgia, support Assad in Syria, supporting terrorist groups in Africa. I wish someone like Navalny comes to power and make Russia great and fights against corruption, defend freedom of speech and press.
It took the French three Napoleons to figure out
Thank you, The Late Show, for inviting Mr Blinken, and thanks Secretary Blinken for an interview. Great job!
What an epic and refreshing difference is our current Secretary of State to our former phony doughboy.
read the "Protocols"...and you will understand exactly whats Blinken work is...(that protocols are fake???...read it first...then tell me)...
All that money taken from the oligarchs needs to be retained to rebuild Ukraine. Sell the yachts, rebuild homes , businesses, government buildings,schools and parks!
Will they do that to help from American billioners to help Iraq people also Lybia,Vietnam,Yugoslavia...Just saying you think Americans dont leave disaster behind...but know you know white people fight each other so it matters...Who cares about Arabs 🤨
That was the bill that Biden put in the package for Ukraine that Ran Paul held up!
I dont know why anyone is shocked that people defending their homes are beating a force that doesnt really want to be there or know what they are fighting for.
One side has everything to lose and the other has nothing to gain, we have seen this play out time and again through history and it rarely goes well for the invading force.
He should have looked at UK in Northern Ireland and check how very much the English based British parliament wanted to cut them off for decades. A long brutal occupation wasting resources is the very best Putin could hope for.
Because guns, tanks and bombs dont care if you want to fight or not, they do the same damage. I served 3 years in the navy, believe me what i say that you dont need to know or care who you kill and why when dropping bombs.
Yes, indeed like the Palestinians.
@@waryaawariiri1812 unfortunately that's an example of failure.
The persons point is a fair one tho.
@@mrblonde1264 Yep, Vietnam would be a better example.
So good to have the U.S. helping Ukraine. 🇺🇦 They needed help and we were there to minimize the harm from the #MonsterPutin .
Holding my breath for US empire to minimise harm from #MonsterZionism in Palestine
@@africanscholar5786 - Yeah, the people in Palestine need help too.
I've been a fan of this guy from the first interview I seen him in.
The US have been using nato to expand towards Russia border. Satan plan, but Allah is the best of planner. NATO getting smashed out of Afghanistan is only the start of the racist west decline. Russia and the miracle of Moses will destroy the racist 🌊☄️🌪
He's a great and humble person and a very professional and thoughtful diplomat. Definitely an asset.
What a refreshing change from the Former-Guy's toady, Pompeo!
Antony Blinken is a knowledgeable class act. Especially in comparison to Mike Pompeo. Mike Pompeo is appearing on Russian State Run TV. On a lighter note. He has the best hair.
Anthony Blinken has expanded his diplomatic portfolio to include comedy and Colbert and did it with finesse. What a combination 😍!
Anthony Blinken as you’re seeing him tonight.... is the same man he’s always been. Strong, decent, compassionate, wise and multitalented. And you’re right... Stephen handled his appearance with such clever finesse to reveal the man as he is.
The best material for comedy is the truth, jus’ sayin’
My Best wishes for your work Love and Peace to your family !😀
My Kind Regards My Dear I hope w see each other soon !!😀
My appreciation , i read this daily !😀
Antony Blinken, sir, you have this Brit's deep thanks and admiration.
I want to ask the Secretary if we can stop sending money to Israel now....
$38 Billion over 10 yrs approved by Obama admin but that was basically renewing a previously approved "aid package" to Isreal the oppressor. It's just rote
I have never been so proud to be a descendant of Ukraine. Fight the good fight, brothers and sisters! The United States stands with you.

I was so confused when I began listening to this but at first couldn't figure out why.
I figured it about about a minute in: this is what competence sounds like. SoS Blinken is thoughtful, transparent, honest, calm, respectful, other adjectives I can't think of because let's be honest I'm an American and we don't exactly grammar well.
The way the previous administration carried themselves, from the president, who we somehow elected and likely will again, to all those in his orbit, was with unearned bravado and arrogance with seemingly no idea what they were doing. Ha seemingly. The continued utterances of "Trust me," and "We'll let you know," was unnerving, frustrating, infuriating, etc etc etc.
Obviously Blinken isn't completely open and didn't share a great number of details, but damnit this was great to listen to.
@@Maria-dj6lm Thank you for pushing Russian propaganda.
@@Maria-dj6lm You wanna tell me I want war? Go to the Esper interview video and come back and tell me I want war.
Americans are also currently banning books, critical thinking, maths and, for a significant minority, science is an anathema.
To an outsider, the state of the American Union still looks very perilous.
The country, from which this outsider hails, has a crop of political leaders that look to #45’s for inspiration.
We certainly get the leaders we deserve.
Best of luck in the midterms.
@@fatimamirza2100 I don't disagree with you, and I hope my comment didn't make it seem like I agree with everything this administration is doing. I don't. It's just nice to hear somebody who is competent and not openly hostile to reality.
@@pdxcorgidad Oh, I concur. Unfortunately, like you intimated, this capable governance is likely short-lived.
Mike Pompeo was mostly busy doing Jared’s bidding - holder no Qatar to ransom - or quizzing competent journalists on their knowledge of the world map.
So yes refreshing, however fleeting.
“Sovereign, independent Ukraine is going to be around a lot longer than Vladimir Putin is on the scene.” Well said, Secretary Blinken.
I believe him. The people of Ukraine held on to their dream of freedom in spite of Katherine the (not so) Great, her successor czars, Buonaparte, Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, Stalin again, Krushchev, Brezhnev, Andropov, Chernenko, and Gorbachev. That dream will not die in spite of what Putin tries to do. Like a trampled bush, it will spring up again from its roots, and now, because of Putin, its roots are spread all across the world.
Totally! Especially if rumours of putins cancer are true!
@@nevadak3424 YES! 🇺🇦

I love the casual arena for such important dialogue; well done for each man, and encouraging messages from SecState
"The first casualty of war is truth."
wow that means what ever form of state russians ever had they have been in war all the time.
Wow a highly qualified diplomat.
Slava Ukraine!!! 🌻🌻🌻🌻 Bless Secretary Blinken.💙
STOP SPLITTING THESE INTERVIEWS UP INTO MULTIPLE VIDEOS!!
What an intelligent and articulate man. Thank God he is in charge of the department.
I think the Democratic Party could use someone like Antony Blinken as a Presidential candidate one day.
Mayor Pete... There's your chance.
He’d make a groovy president
@@darinz7182 I agree he’d be a brilliant candidate too. The problem is America is too uptight and immature to elect a gay president. One day ….
@@canoegirl6335 I agree completely.
This guy Blinken is fabulous!!! Congratulations, America! (Does anybody know what Winken and Nod are up to?)
You can find their story on TH-cam. I was using it at work. 😂
“Back in the 19 hundreds”! Blinker makes it sound so long ago. That would make so many of my possessions valuable.
he said _back in the 1990s_ and was probably referring to 1997
I like this guy! Probably one of the best Biden picks.
Steve is bringing valuable perspective and information to younger people who normally don't watch the news. He adds tinges of sarcastic humor to keep them interested. Not a substitute for news but the story gets out.
He is a cathofascist prick. It is known where he and his family lives - so they can get the experience Russians were forced through because of the German s and Ukrainians.
This really is a turning point in modern history. President Putin has absolutely underestimated the will of free nations to stay free and not to follow neither his orders nor opinions on politics. That is good news!
iraq syria afganistan vietnam war??
what are you ? 10 years old?
Fascinating. It's great to have Blinken on, bc people need to know.
May God Richly Bless The People of The United States for their generous hearts !!! May God Bless The People of Ukraine for their courage !!! SLAVA UKRAINI !!!
I think Millions of Iraqis, Afghans and Lybians would disagree with you. But I guess their don’t matter since they are not blonde people with blue eyes.
What makes you thank God is involved with this War? “. . .“In the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed. And this kingdom will not be passed on to any other people. It will crush and put an end to all these kingdoms, and it alone will stand forever,” - Da 2:44 *Notice what gets destroyed and what takes its place?*
To hell with the US which so generously carpet bombed Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria and Libya. More and more people in this world are getting tired of your evil, warmongering country!
The thing is !! You can measure height, weight and count money by the numbers !! However YOU CAN NOT measure the will of the heart and the Ukraine Military Forces they're giving the world a masterclass in what the will of the heart can do and accomplish !!
@Vanghost careful there Grammer Nazi. Putin might come for you next.
@Vanghost Neither does your mama !!
Putin is such a nostalgic autocrat, he thinks longingly of the early 1930s when Stalin oversaw the starvation of 3.3 million people in Ukraine.
Living on past glory.
@@TheRealDeal130 barbarism is glorious?
Antony Blinkin is bad ass. He knows his job.
Hell yeah!
Blinken > Pompeo
Blinken sounds better than ever. Thanks!
Russia asked to join NATO in the 1990 and was told NO
Why does Blinken lie ?
Blinken is smart and articulate and informative and Cole bear is smart to have him on the show
Thank you america for welcoming Sweden to the alliance and giving protection through the whole process. It's getting a bit too hairy in this part of the world to be on our own.
and what about Turkey? That's a problem
@@henrimatisse7481 It is indeed a problem for direct membership, if Turkey would let us talk to them eventually, im sure it could be resolved since basically USA and the rest of EU has the same view about YPG not being a terrorist organization, we don't differ from the rest of the alliance about this. I have a sneaking suspicion this could result in turkey leaving the alliance. But regardless i think this move strengthens the cooperation between NATO and Sweden even if the time for us to become members looks like a long ordeal. It will secure the whole baltic region significantly since we would plan it together.
The Russians didn’t join NATO after Putin was told what would have to change for their application to be successful.
You know; small things like be a democracy with at least a minimum of checks and balances, and agree to not resolve border disputes by force, and so on.
Putin, already a tyrant with near absolute power over a kleptocracy he created, and designs on his neighbours to resurrect Russian empire, was having none of that. If memory serves, he thought Russia’s chances of joining didn’t sound too hopeful.
did Putin order the assassination of Gaddafi?
Portugal was literally a fascist dictatorship when they were admitted to NATO. So, gonna call bullshit on that one
Putin asked then NATO leader George Robertson during his leadership (1999-2003): "when are you going to invite us to join NATO?" To which Robertson replied: "well, we don't invite people to join NATO, they apply to join NATO."
Putin's answer to that was: "well, we're not standing in line with countries that don't matter."
The Russian hubris was in full swing then, already.
and a damn good Secretary of State, too
Blinken is an awesome Secretary of State proud to have him with us.
Let's defend WOMEN the way we help defend UKRAINE: let the woman decide if she wants a future with children or not.
I guess supplying women with Howitzers and Javelins might just do it.
I'm saying it. Out of anyone I hear out of the present administration Anthony Blinken would make an excellent president.
Whitehouse/Porter.
I pray for Ukrainian people 🙏 who are enduring this aggression..really
So what's the strategy for ending this war as soon as possible? That's right there isn't one.
He is a great guy! Love his speeches!
I understand that discontent is getting stronger, criticism is getting louder in Russia. Maybe the Russian people will come around soon and send their leader(s) packing. I hear Siberia is nice this time of the year.
Yep I hear that too, plus it's spring so the wolves are out and about, mabye vlad can play with the puppies!
I wish the USA weren't such hypocrites when it comes to foreign policy. Hawaii has expressed an interest in reverting to an independent nation, again. Why hasn't that been addressed before pointing the finger at Russia for wanting to continue with the Soviet Union? I doubt the US would be very happy if Hawaii seceded as Ukraine has. To Putin, this is still a fight for national unity.
Very very true, I feel really sorry for the Hawaiian people..
The whole Pope Francis bit shows that this man is such an amazing negotiator!
I think one of the big failings of this interview was Secretary Blinken did not lay out why the American people need to care about the war in Ukraine. The reasons are very real and very meaningful. The cost of grain will skyrocket, poor countries will start starving The cost of what they sell with skyrocket, cost of oil will skyrocket, the cost of computer chips with skyrocket, the cost of high-tech machinery and thus low tech machinery will skyrocket if Russia gains control over Ukraine. It is an incredibly important geo strategic country in terms of resources. Those resources directly affect the American consumer.
Even if you don't care about Ukraine from a humanitarian perspective, God forbid, at the very least, you should understand that it has a material effect on your life.
Well said, although I support Ukraine because they are a sovereign nation expelling an invader. But the economic reality is exactly as you say. Ukraine is the source of many things folks don't even think of....like sunflower seeds for oil and as a condiment to salad. Why do I know this? Because very often now there are no sunnies in the bulk sections because of this conflict. Sunnies are one thing and I could do without them forever and would trade them in a heartbeat for the safety and security of the Ukrainian people.
The major receiver of grain from Ukraine is Africa and people that are against Ukraine defending themselves are generally people that care nothing for Africa too.
Thanks Антоша Блинкен for your support for Ukraine!
Kazakhstan is also greatful to You!
Who is fueling the conflict/ war?
👍👍 Thank you, Antony Blinken, for doing a great job at this very challenging time. And, Jon Batiste, what's with the weird entrance music?
He probably wanted something jazzy.
Batiste is not there. Louis is taking leadership.
Batiste is out with Covid, and has an upcoming project, so may or may not get back to LSSC in the interim. Louis Cato is leading the band.
No wonder. Thanks everyone!
Everyone thought that the war in Ukraine would be lost after three or four days. We also thought the Afghan army would be able to hold off the Taliban for at least a week. Wrong on both accounts.
Going back 3 months on Google, I can't see anyone who said that. The Russians didn't. Who did?
Some people just deserve to be conquered.
"Everyone" did not think it'd be over in 3 to 4 days, the vast majority of people who have no experience in war, did
Translation: the military industrial complex is happy.
Thanks from Ukraine 🇺🇦
When International diplomacy is essentially a staring contest...Blinken may be the most ironic SOS in history. Slava.
Is there a reason he doesn't just use his initial?
A. Blinken
For the very reason your comment implied, I guess. 🤷♀️
It took me a minute. But that's funny.
US went Vietnam what happens US went Iraq what happens US went Syria what happens US went Afghanistan what happens US went Libya what happens In total a very big 0.00 Same thing happens with Ukrain
In ten years time Ukraine will, thanks to support and investments from the west as well as a real diversified and true market economy, be doing much better than Russia (wich is absolutely imploding) with a far higher GDP per capita. I believe we will talk about ”the Ukrainian economic wonder”, just like we did in regards to Germany after WW2. (Partly thanks to the Marshall plan)
In 2001, President George W. Bush famously looked Russian President Vladimir Putin in the eye and peered into his soul. Now, it seems, President Obama is trying to get inside Putin’s head.
Ukraine is the only former Soviet Republic that's GDP is still lower than it was in 1991 when the USSR broke up.
Meanwhile the ruble is already back to where it was when the Russians invaded.
But sure dude, solid prediction 🙄
@@00SmileTime00 keep trying to reassure yourself, bud. Even McDonald’s is altogether closing shop over there.
Sure… Russia is booming right now. 🤡
@@00SmileTime00 Yeah, about that Moscow stock exchange. Is it open yet?
@@janellie1985 junk food n bad for health.
I used to like to use things like Google Earth to look at the world. I don’t do that so much anymore because viewing Ukraine would show miles of rubble and bodies on the ground. Slava Ukraini.
What a lie
NATO is a defensive alliance
>bombs yugoslavia
>bombs libya
I salute the Brave Ukrainian soldiers and to all Ukrainians in their fight for the freedom of the world because I don't believe Russia will stop at Ukraine. Slava Ukraine.
Copy/paste these two titles on TH-cam to see what's really going on in Ukraine:
1. "Donbass Under Fire. Life in the Donetsk Republic under bombs | Dig Deep Documentary"
2. "Ukraine Donbass: Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow Documentary"
This gentleman could be a future USA president, he has what it takes...just throwing my thoughts out There.
That’s a Great Thought!
Actually, don't invite Russia to be part of NATO, instead, invite North Korea and China to be part of NATO, and watch Putin's anger burn like a dry leaf 🍃 🍂
you are crazy to say that. do you really want nuclear war? do you really think Putin will not do everything till the very end? but it will be end for all of us
Steven, a great follow up question would have been, how is that different from a proxy war?
"what is remarkable is when you look at this situation, President Putin has managed to precipitate everything he tried to prevent"
He's the rockstar of the Biden Admin for me :-)
It’s very Interesting to see an administration official receive over all praise. Blinkin seems like a decent person.
He's an employee that does what he's told. Watch how Congress treats him at Budget Hearing.

Thanks you, Mr Blinken
i would love to see Sweden and Finland join NATO but at the moment Turkey is blocking their bid to join which is worrying.
Just know this dear Americans and all other countries, each of you who supports Ukraine now, will always be a welcome guest in my home❤️❤️❤️
“It’s not a proxy war”
America too busy giving military equipments to Ukraine rather sorting out there crap in America🤦♀️
I hope we support our Kurdish brothers and sisters. If we have I'm out of line.
Black & Brown folk like us have to get to the back of the queue. White people are dying
I love him ,very handsome man!
"One country trying to decide what the other country wants, not them" coming from a US politician is quite the hypocrite soundbite no? I am all in favor for how the world is supporting Ukraine, but the US could use these events to have some introspection on what happened before.
Preach!! God I thought I was the only one...
The US is deeply divided, uneducated, and insular. It's not capable of any serious introspection. It's really hard to predict where the US will go as this is almost entirely dependent on the internal evolution of its society. Outside pressure will do little as there is highly concerted efforts to resist any outside influence.
Russia is as bad as the USA. They are meddling in Africa and done all sorts in the Middle East
We have a phrase in the UK . Pot meet kettle
Which fits in well with the Russia v USA argument
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
@@chriswatson7965 I can't argue some of your points. There are some in the US who are educated and try to look at things in a global context. From the outside I'm sure there is concern about being involved in anything with the US after the craziness of the last administration and its threat to try again. I can tell you that the majority of the people do not want to return to that place ever again. Unfortunately, the framers of our Constitution set up a system that gives more power to the minority of voters. Therefore, the return of Putin's puppet is a fear we have as well. I know that makes it difficult for other nations to trust us.
Thanks from Ukraine!💛💛💙💙
