That shows just how smart this lady truly is. And her telling of how advisors had to come up with novel ways of trying to influence him by going on talk shows, since Trump seeing a person "on TV" somehow gave greater weight in his mind than if that same advisor was sitting in front of him in the oval office saying the same things. This is also how Fox News hosts were able to "play" Trump during his entire presidency by influencing him to change policy based on watching their cable TV shows.

She also operates with honesty and integrity. I can't help but view her as a hero. That's rather sad as she only did what a decent person should do. That appears to be in short supply. So many others in positions like hers, where they should have stood up in a timely fashion, waited for a book deal instead. Pogo was right, "we have met the enemy and he is us."
she is the epitome of integrity...someone who should be held up as an example. unfortunately here in America, we seem to prefer the opposite qualities.😪
Agree with you 100 percent. She's intelligent, articulate, eloquent, and honest; traits that so many in Congress now lack, like" Jordan, McCarthy, Cruz, McConnell, Greene, Hawley and the list goes on.
Just finished her book. Her story is remarkable and a salutary lesson on the importance of educational and social opportunity. Sadly, both of which have been badly eroded in recent decades.
@@acustomer7216 Fiona Hill received her higher education at the same time as me, although I was a late starter at 27. There were no tuition fees for students from the UK + a grant generous enough to actually live on (carefully) + easy to find summer work. House of Commons library now says average student owes over $50K, higher than the US.
Dr Hill is an excellent ambassador for the English education system and the Scottish tertiary level. Certainly, postgrad studies in an Ivy League university widened her horizons, but the lady surely represents the best of the encouragement in British schools of critical thinking.
I admire Fiona Hill but "critical thinking" is a meaningless hocus-pocus. It means what you want it to mean. All the antivaxxers who reject the advice of the CDC believe they are thinking critically.
@@cacambo589 The expression "critical thinking" implies to be open to question matters which are not proven empirically or by scientific proof. The shape of the Earth, Pythagoras's Theorem, and the causes of malaria, for example, would not be open to such an educational process. Most people consider Socrates to be the father of critical thinking. The reason I consider such a practice to be important in child development is that it encourages young minds to be self disciplined. One monitors one's own views on a subject, is prepared to be wrong and ready to self-correct. Most importantly, it demands independent study, the development of ways to effectively communicate one's views, and to tackle problems in a non-self centred way. If you think such a phrase is meaningless, then its alternative title is Socratic reasoning. I suggest you might care to look at the findings of Scott Lilienfield on the subject, which are based on John Dewey's original ideas. When, as in better schools in my day, classical philosophy, rhetoric, and the creative arts were each important elements in the curriculum, multiple choice exams didn't exist, and a fine balance was maintained between pure academics, moral/cultural/creative subjects, and physical activity in schools, this holistic approach to learning and child development encouraged multi-faceted young people.
Fiona Hill is so impressive. My goodness, I could imagine her in No. 10 and doing a stellar job. Though I daresay she is too smart to get involved in politics.
Friendly Old Brit. I am a total fan of Hill as she and I come from the same part of the UK. After her first appearance at the impeachment I asked an American cousin how Hill and Vindman had been got so much press for just being open and forthright and her reply was a simple "They haven't been here long enough to get too entrenched". This interview are an absolute gem.
Ms. Hill is one of the best things the UK ever imported, aside from my girlfriend ;-) But Vindman is one of many here, that will never allow themselves to be whisked along on a crazy train of warm fuzzy conspiracy theories that comfort the racist and racist curious among us. More people voted for ANYONE other than You Know Coup every time. Every single time. Vindman came here as a 3 year old, though he has was born in Ukraine and speaks it as a native speaker. He and his brother are exemplary members of our Armed Forces. And he refused to allow the atrocious skullduggery that the twice impeached failed Florida blogger attempted.
I'm not so sure that was an accurate assessment. "Too entrenched" gives the impression of a false equivalence where there is none. In America today, only ONE of its main two parties, the Democrats, is stating and revealing the truth. The Republicans are creating and anti-truth world of "alternative facts", lies, bogus conspiracies and false narratives to keep their supporters in an cult bubble of disinformation. It is brainwashing perfected. Fiona would be Fiona no matter how long she lived in America. Truth is truth, and only one party in America believes in telling the truth today.
Fiona led a masterclass with her testimony, max scores from me across the board, which was all that more memorable because of her accent and now legendary gravitas.
I remember her testimony at the impeachment inquiry. I was hanging on her every word. Especially when she said that her focus was diplomacy while Rudy was on a personal errand from POTUS.
Thank goodness for civil servants like Fiona. Unfortunately, far fewer are drawn to service these days especially after the backlash over the last few years.
…which has been the point of the far right since the Reagan years: chip away at the effectiveness of government, then point to that ineffectiveness as proof that the “deep state” needs to be further dismantled.
You seriously went through eight years of George Bush Junior without being ashamed? You realize the guy is a massive war criminal, and that even Obama overthrew Libya. CLinton was the first president to dismantle the world governing system by saying they were unilaterally going into bosnia, and since then every military effort has been without UN authorization. In other words destabilizing the world order and creating the american empire. The eighties under Reagan were even uglier, and before that the uglier it got.
Fiona Hill doesn't BS around. She has answers and always backs it up with her reasons. She is so very well in tune with human nature and the human psyche. Thumbs up for Fiona Hill!👍
@Nadeer John That's it? Just an accusation without any reason to back up your statement? After all that I've said about how Fiona backs up her responses and what do you do? You prove me right and people like you will never even be a 10th of a person that she is.
Fiona stood tallest throughout Russian collusion talks. We need more straight-talking types like her in high places, don't care what party affiliation.
Fiona Hill is so shocking, so refreshing to listen to in stark contrast to a backdrop of political nonsesnce, hypocrisy, lies, and deceit. What a treasure!
Awesome she is. She's America's TREASURE. hoping she'll still be around for the next generation to teach and/or in OFFICE by her or in another administration.
What an extraordinary woman Fiona Hill is; she seems to really know her subject and i was impressed by her ability to speak diplomatically about these concerning global issues. She is very factual without ever mixing in her personal opinions or feelings. She also looks better than ever. She looks like she finally got a little R&R and sun !
Miss Hill, so knowledgeable in her field. I'm surprised her testimony didn't put trump away. But with the Republicans being in charge, it's no wonder the impeachments didn't do what we'd hoped.
Public opinion and outrage is what drives political decisions. Republicans knew that Americans could care less about accountability and they were right.
I realize that Trump asking zelensky to open up an investigation into the Biden political corruption that went on in Ukraine would certainly upset the Democrats. And Fiona Hill was involved in that up to her eyeballs. The partisan hack who worries about what to wear in front of the TV cameras
Her testimony was an important piece of the historical record of the Trump years and his part of the Putin-Ukraine mess. It actually becomes more compelling with time, not a waste because the impeachment failed.
I think there were a lot of people who were reassured to see Hill testifying. Even if you disagreed with her, it could not be denied that were some level-headed people in government who were there to advise in a truly professional capacity.
Fiona reassured me that there was at least one ADULT watching Russia and understanding what they were seeing despite 45 being Putin's prime agent in the USA.
@Mark Johnson I do hope you’re actually getting paid for saying silly things. It would be abhorrent to think you’re here wasting your life trolling for nothing.
It made a great difference to see her in front of Congress answering questions regarding something that was not clear because of all those that were attempting to frame what became the attempt to overthrow our democracy. Thanks to those that have the real integrity to actually tell the truth in public. Thanks to all those that will not be bullied.
I’ve worked mostly outside the USA . On my first overseas assignment I was very surprised by the different interpretations of the USA from my previous views. I learned that I didn’t know everything and that other people have legitimate opinions that
Thanks for sharing this talk with Fiona Hill. I love how straightforward and practical she is. I hope she sticks around and continues to spread her particular version of honest diplomacy.
I thought it was an extraordinary and great act of bravery. You got to be one of the check and balances our forefathers envisioned. Nobody was standing up to Pewtin and the useful idiot in the Whitehouse at the time. Kudos Fiona Hill

@B: If you respect her, then pls don't call her a "lady" -- that noun is a HUGE prison cell for women, with its implications of demure, acquiescent behavior. She's a woman or a person. Tx.
I'm currently appreciating"There is Nothing for You Here" for its clarity and honesty while untangling complex issues. She has a wonderful gift of connecting her personal stories with the larger currents of international concern. Her comparisons between Putin and Trump are substantial.
Thank you. That was a delightful interview. I am a Rust Belt woman who was born to a poor family, and I made my way to a successful career in Manhattan. I identify with much of what Fiona Hill had to say about the difficulties of overcoming class and sexism.
I said this from the very beginning that Trump treated the Government like his own personal business and as the CEO he didn't have to listen to anyone but himself. Even had he listened to others he took credit for it. Never met a man who is smarter than anyone else in any field than himself. A man who has lived in an ivory tower his whole life going from one party to another and never even succeeding at any business endeavor he went after except a reality show that had followers that are basically still following him. This is not the credentials for a President, especially one who follows and admires men in the world who are oppressing their countries and people. Dictators. We do not need a dictator in the USA. If the republicans have their way we will become a third world country. Think before you vote in November.

Fiona Hill's comments on Putin make sense to me. The West is playing a game of chess with Putin; but Putin is playing a game of high-stakes poker. The West needs to take cues from the game theory.
@@mstar7520 Psychological aspects are crucial in variants of the game theory. For example, a saber-rattling is a form of testing the opposition. When Putin amassed his troops around Ukraine's border, Putin was testing the West on how far it would go to protect Ukraine. A proper response would have been a display of equal force (e.g., putting NATO troops in Ukraine). This most likely would have prevented the war.
@@toddgrady7119 The issue is about the NATO's expansion. There is a strong case that the NATO and the US were reckless. The ultimate blame falls on Russia, however. One can't get shoot someone and argue that he had to defend himself against that someone -IF that someone didn't commit any violence. Really, what is the excuse for killing civilians and children? Also, if you examine Putin's actions since he came to power - it looks like containing the NATO was just an excuse (perhaps even to himself) to actualize his his ambition. The bottom line is that he wanted Ukraine regardless of the NAO.
@@davidchung1697 Ugh, not the “NATO expansion is to blame” rationalization again. Let’s be clear about something: Russia was going to try to swallow up Ukraine no matter what. It’s a problem that goes all the way back to the 90’s, well before Bush opened the possibility for Ukraine.
One of the great and lasting strengths of all forms of self-government over all monarchies is that forms of autocracy are based on inheritance and/or forceful grasp of power, not on personal attributes and character. So, it's the luck of the draw. Every now and then a monarch inherits a throne who actually has some exceptional qualities that benefit their subjects for a decade, or so. Then a death, or a coup ends the brief period of stability and chaos rules again. Fiona Hill is an example of someone with outstanding attributes and integrity rising in govt through exceptional performance and experience to a position where she rendered an invaluable service to the lives of many hundreds of millions of people in America, Britain, and Europe.
Great job both. Dr Hill, it's also beyond brilliant to see people that sound a bit like me in positions of authority, being listened to, and heeded. I'm showing this interview to my daughter and nieces.
Okay she is a northerner - down to earth, intelligent, tough, and above all honest and morally sound! Way to go Fiona Hill you are a credit to yourself and your back ground!
I love her when she said Putin perceived America as weak. Of course he did the Obama Biden Administration drove our military into the dirt 4/8 years. He didn't make a peep when Trump was president.
I found this interview with Fiona Hill to be particularly interesting in three ways: one, her insights into Trump’s narcissism; the inherent misogyny against which she, as an accomplished woman, was forced to navigate against within the system (and especially within the framework of the Trump administration); and, three, her expertise as an analyst of the dynamic of Putin’s policies and Russian behavior geopolitically. It should go without saying that her insights into policy with Russia and Putin’s impact upon geopolitics were superb. It is telling to me that it doesn’t go without saying; rather, that I feel compelled to contextualize it in the framework of Trumpian misogyny to somehow give that due credence.
Fiona Hill's book is a great account of a tragic time. I may disagree with some things but I have the utmost respect for her. She is a living example of how public spending on education is not an expense, it is an investment. We need more dedicated public servants like her.
Could you imagine if we had a Fiona Hill for president instead of Donald Trump? I don’t think Putin would have dared to invade Ukraine if the US had that kind of strong clear leadership. She is of course brilliant. I was awed when I saw her on C-SPAN during the first impeachment. The fact that the Republicans could not find it in their heart of hearts to impeach Trump after her testimony, showed a profound depth of dishonesty. Fiona Hill, you have my deepest respect. The integrity you’ve shown in your Career Of public service will stand as an example to our better selves for a long time.
0:12 [Fiona Hill] "distinctive with her strong Northern English accent." Hmm... for you Americans, it may sound strong, but speaking as an English man, I think her accent is perfectly normal.
"It showed people that the system was there." F. Hill My point and journey exactly! He didn't have go to jail but the system held him accountable. And it MUST, otherwise, why bother with laws if they apply to some but not others based on social standing, race, country of birth, gender, social class, occupation... etc...
I look to the day when intelligent, educated, experienced Fiona will move into the drivers seat (political office) from just an advisory role. How she keeps a clear view of everything going on in the 'world game' (like Monopoly!) is hard to fathom! I'd vote for her on a heartbeat with what I know about her.
I doubt she'd ever run. Usually principled people who work in civil service or non political positions in the government stay far away from politics. She's amazing & I hope her mind is once again helping our country against the authoritarian/fascist influences that are threatening American democracy.
Notice how all the courageous whistleblowers and truth tellers are now out of the system? Notice how the corrupt lowers are still there? Very concerning for the future. Thank you Fiona for you courage and moral decency!
"My mother's a midwife" that is to say focused, competent at an essential moment in human existence when everybody else is stressed, maybe not sure what to do next. Lovely image of someone rooted at the most basic level and flighty at another very important level.

Removal of all lying and paid off corrupt Democrats, clean house of the same elements in Republican party and bring back integrity and honor to public service by removing all the liars that have clearly been shown to be so in our courts of law.
The Clintons, put them in jail already! But you are right about one thing, loss of our democracy and stability will in fact happen if they continue to hold power. We will be lucky to survive the next 2 years. This is the full court press to take down our country now by those feeding the new game plan to Biden. He isn't even smart enough to make this country fail this quickly all by himself.
Fiona Hill is well informed, observant, as well thinks & speaks clearly how that those informations & observations translates in the real world.
She also operates with honesty and integrity. I can't help but view her as a hero. That's rather sad as she only did what a decent person should do. That appears to be in short supply. So many others in positions like hers, where they should have stood up in a timely fashion, waited for a book deal instead.
Pogo was right, "we have met the enemy and he is us."
she is the epitome of integrity...someone who should be held up as an example. unfortunately here in America, we seem to prefer the opposite qualities.😪
Fiona is an American hero! She has not been thanked enough.
She's an international hero: let's not limit her range or impact.
@Chamber Muses thank you. You are correct.
Agree with you 100 percent. She's intelligent, articulate, eloquent, and honest; traits that so many in Congress now lack, like" Jordan, McCarthy, Cruz, McConnell, Greene, Hawley and the list goes on.
@@jamesirwin8917 Agree with you but would have been nice if you listed a few Dems on that list.

Fiona Hill, truly someone to look up to. She is one of my hero's.
Mine too.

(It's 'heroes.') 😉
I know this is trivial but her quote,"Weirdness in real time" sums up an entire administration perfectly! I loved it to pieces. One of so many gems.
Ah Fiona Hill. What a Breath of Fresh Air she is. Thanks a million. Widhing you the BEST because YOU DESERVE THE BEST.
She’s brilliant! So much respect for her forthright manner.
A role model!

Just finished her book. Her story is remarkable and a salutary lesson on the importance of educational and social opportunity. Sadly, both of which have been badly eroded in recent decades.
She received her bachelors and masters degrees in the UK where the cost of higher education makes it within reach.
I just requested Fiona Hill's book from my local library (several "holds" ahead of me).
Vague, please explain.
@@haroldplante8287 Explain what?
@@acustomer7216 Fiona Hill received her higher education at the same time as me, although I was a late starter at 27. There were no tuition fees for students from the UK + a grant generous enough to actually live on (carefully) + easy to find summer work. House of Commons library now says average student owes over $50K, higher than the US.
Dr Hill is an excellent ambassador for the English education system and the Scottish tertiary level. Certainly, postgrad studies in an Ivy League university widened her horizons, but the lady surely represents the best of the encouragement in British schools of critical thinking.
greetings: she studied HARD .
I admire Fiona Hill but "critical thinking" is a meaningless hocus-pocus. It means what you want it to mean. All the antivaxxers who reject the advice of the CDC believe they are thinking critically.
@@cacambo589 The expression "critical thinking" implies to be open to question matters which are not proven empirically or by scientific proof. The shape of the Earth, Pythagoras's Theorem, and the causes of malaria, for example, would not be open to such an educational process. Most people consider Socrates to be the father of critical thinking. The reason I consider such a practice to be important in child development is that it encourages young minds to be self disciplined. One monitors one's own views on a subject, is prepared to be wrong and ready to self-correct. Most importantly, it demands independent study, the development of ways to effectively communicate one's views, and to tackle problems in a non-self centred way. If you think such a phrase is meaningless, then its alternative title is Socratic reasoning. I suggest you might care to look at the findings of Scott Lilienfield on the subject, which are based on John Dewey's original ideas.
When, as in better schools in my day, classical philosophy, rhetoric, and the creative arts were each important elements in the curriculum, multiple choice exams didn't exist, and a fine balance was maintained between pure academics, moral/cultural/creative subjects, and physical activity in schools, this holistic approach to learning and child development encouraged multi-faceted young people.
Can you spare us some? We have a deficit!
@@eric2500 Well, my US cousin, at least it is encouraging that some, like you, recognise the problem. 🤔
Fiona Hill is so impressive. My goodness, I could imagine her in No. 10 and doing a stellar job. Though I daresay she is too smart to get involved in politics.
...She could cut BoJo to shreds, I think, and well-deserved. Are you going to steal her back from us🇺🇸?
she is way way too smart for the politicians anywhere
Amen to that .
However it is so sad she is not .
I dream of a government or party with Fiona at the helm and Eddie izzard as her num 2
She’s great a slinging BS… that’s for sure.
That's exactly what's wrong with the GOP that I left. The dummies and Political hacks are in charge.
Friendly Old Brit. I am a total fan of Hill as she and I come from the same part of the UK. After her first appearance at the impeachment I asked an American cousin how Hill and Vindman had been got so much press for just being open and forthright and her reply was a simple "They haven't been here long enough to get too entrenched".
This interview are an absolute gem.
Vindman came to the US as a 3-year-old.
Ms. Hill is one of the best things the UK ever imported, aside from my girlfriend ;-) But Vindman is one of many here, that will never allow themselves to be whisked along on a crazy train of warm fuzzy conspiracy theories that comfort the racist and racist curious among us. More people voted for ANYONE other than You Know Coup every time. Every single time.
Vindman came here as a 3 year old, though he has was born in Ukraine and speaks it as a native speaker. He and his brother are exemplary members of our Armed Forces. And he refused to allow the atrocious skullduggery that the twice impeached failed Florida blogger attempted.
Your cousin was wrong. They both have been here long enough to get entrenched. They just haven’t let their ego take lead over their integrity.
Yes, that as well !
I'm not so sure that was an accurate assessment. "Too entrenched" gives the impression of a false equivalence where there is none. In America today, only ONE of its main two parties, the Democrats, is stating and revealing the truth. The Republicans are creating and anti-truth world of "alternative facts", lies, bogus conspiracies and false narratives to keep their supporters in an cult bubble of disinformation. It is brainwashing perfected. Fiona would be Fiona no matter how long she lived in America. Truth is truth, and only one party in America believes in telling the truth today.
Fiona Hill talks a lot of sense. Always a pleasure to listen to what she has to say.
Especially when you are in total agreement with her sludge.
Fiona led a masterclass with her testimony, max scores from me across the board, which was all that more memorable because of her accent and now legendary gravitas.
I remember her testimony at the impeachment inquiry. I was hanging on her every word. Especially when she said that her focus was diplomacy while Rudy was on a personal errand from POTUS.
Thank goodness for civil servants like Fiona. Unfortunately, far fewer are drawn to service these days especially after the backlash over the last few years.
She was involved in this up to her eyeballs when the Biden family was extorting money out of Ukraine.
…which has been the point of the far right since the Reagan years: chip away at the effectiveness of government, then point to that ineffectiveness as proof that the “deep state” needs to be further dismantled.
I’ve been ashamed of being American since election night 2016.
Let’s all please vote the shame out of our government offices.
🇺🇸
😹
well put!
You seriously went through eight years of George Bush Junior without being ashamed? You realize the guy is a massive war criminal, and that even Obama overthrew Libya. CLinton was the first president to dismantle the world governing system by saying they were unilaterally going into bosnia, and since then every military effort has been without UN authorization. In other words destabilizing the world order and creating the american empire. The eighties under Reagan were even uglier, and before that the uglier it got.
Fiona Hill doesn't BS around. She has answers and always backs it up with her reasons. She is so very well in tune with human nature and the human psyche. Thumbs up for Fiona Hill!👍
@Nadeer John That's it? Just an accusation without any reason to back up your statement? After all that I've said about how Fiona backs up her responses and what do you do? You prove me right and people like you will never even be a 10th of a person that she is.

What an extraordinary woman Fiona Hill is; she seems to really know her subject and i was impressed by her ability to speak diplomatically about these concerning global issues. She is very factual without ever mixing in her personal opinions or feelings. She also looks better than ever. She looks like she finally got a little R&R and sun !
Outstanding Lady, we are so lucky to have Dr. Hill in America.
Miss Hill, so knowledgeable in her field. I'm surprised her testimony didn't put trump away. But with the Republicans being in charge, it's no wonder the impeachments didn't do what we'd hoped.
Public opinion and outrage is what drives political decisions. Republicans knew that Americans
could care less about accountability and they were right.
I realize that Trump asking zelensky to open up an investigation into the Biden political corruption that went on in Ukraine would certainly upset the Democrats. And Fiona Hill was involved in that up to her eyeballs. The partisan hack who worries about what to wear in front of the TV cameras
Put Trump away for what exactly? Just curious.
The most telling comment by Dr. Hill: "If you were called Secretary of State, or Secretary of Defense, you were just a glorified secretary".
Unless you were a woman and then you were just a secretary.
Excellent interview of an amazing woman.
I really enjoy listening to Fiona Hill. She is very down to earth and matter of fact.
Her testimony was an important piece of the historical record of the Trump years and his part of the Putin-Ukraine mess. It actually becomes more compelling with time, not a waste because the impeachment failed.
Yes, it was very important for us all to hear you!!! Thank you Fiona!!! It was a huge deal!!
I think there were a lot of people who were reassured to see Hill testifying.
Even if you disagreed with her, it could not be denied that were some level-headed people in government who were there to advise in a truly professional capacity.
Fiona reassured me that there was at least one ADULT watching Russia and understanding what they were seeing despite 45 being Putin's prime agent in the USA.

The only disappointing aspect of this interview was that it was only 23 minutes long. Very interesting lady with a wonderful story.
@B: If you respect her, then pls don't call her a "lady" -- that noun is a HUGE prison cell for women, with its implications of demure, acquiescent behavior. She's a woman or a person. Tx.

You, on the other hand…
I'm currently appreciating"There is Nothing for You Here" for its clarity and honesty while untangling complex issues. She has a wonderful gift of connecting her personal stories with the larger currents of international concern. Her comparisons between Putin and Trump are substantial.
Thank you. That was a delightful interview. I am a Rust Belt woman who was born to a poor family, and I made my way to a successful career in Manhattan. I identify with much of what Fiona Hill had to say about the difficulties of overcoming class and sexism.
I said this from the very beginning that Trump treated the Government like his own personal business and as the CEO he didn't have to listen to anyone but himself. Even had he listened to others he took credit for it. Never met a man who is smarter than anyone else in any field than himself. A man who has lived in an ivory tower his whole life going from one party to another and never even succeeding at any business endeavor he went after except a reality show that had followers that are basically still following him. This is not the credentials for a President, especially one who follows and admires men in the world who are oppressing their countries and people. Dictators. We do not need a dictator in the USA. If the republicans have their way we will become a third world country. Think before you vote in November.
Thank you Ms Hill for taking the stand you took to speak truth to power. You are/were a ray of sunshine during the dark days of the Trump days.

Fiona Hill always hits home runs, the statement “It didn’t work.” Is vacuous! The point was and is the truth was presented. 💁
Vacuous?
@@garryferrington811 it’s an adjective meaning mindless so hmmm.
Except 60 judges - many Trump appointed - disagreed
Fiona Hill's comments on Putin make sense to me. The West is playing a game of chess with Putin; but Putin is playing a game of high-stakes poker. The West needs to take cues from the game theory.
In game theory we assume people are rational actors, and many are saying that the losses Putin is incurring in this war show him to be irrational.
@@mstar7520 Psychological aspects are crucial in variants of the game theory.
For example, a saber-rattling is a form of testing the opposition. When Putin amassed his troops around Ukraine's border, Putin was testing the West on how far it would go to protect Ukraine. A proper response would have been a display of equal force (e.g., putting NATO troops in Ukraine). This most likely would have prevented the war.
Check out the Pope's web site where he calls out the US and NATO for starting the war in Ukraine it is really eye opening.
@@toddgrady7119 The issue is about the NATO's expansion. There is a strong case that the NATO and the US were reckless.
The ultimate blame falls on Russia, however. One can't get shoot someone and argue that he had to defend himself against that someone -IF that someone didn't commit any violence. Really, what is the excuse for killing civilians and children?
Also, if you examine Putin's actions since he came to power - it looks like containing the NATO was just an excuse (perhaps even to himself) to actualize his his ambition. The bottom line is that he wanted Ukraine regardless of the NAO.
@@davidchung1697 Ugh, not the “NATO expansion is to blame” rationalization again.
Let’s be clear about something: Russia was going to try to swallow up Ukraine no matter what. It’s a problem that goes all the way back to the 90’s, well before Bush opened the possibility for Ukraine.
One of the great and lasting strengths of all forms of self-government over all monarchies is that forms of autocracy are based on inheritance and/or forceful grasp of power, not on personal attributes and character. So, it's the luck of the draw. Every now and then a monarch inherits a throne who actually has some exceptional qualities that benefit their subjects for a decade, or so. Then a death, or a coup ends the brief period of stability and chaos rules again.
Fiona Hill is an example of someone with outstanding attributes and integrity rising in govt through exceptional performance and experience to a position where she rendered an invaluable service to the lives of many hundreds of millions of people in America, Britain, and Europe.
Fiona and colonel Vindeman are true hero’s. Ty for your sacrifice and persistence in smashing the trump regime.
Great job both. Dr Hill, it's also beyond brilliant to see people that sound a bit like me in positions of authority, being listened to, and heeded. I'm showing this interview to my daughter and nieces.

@@3dsmaxrocks699 You are proof that not all that gibbers is gold.
I found this interview with Fiona Hill to be particularly interesting in three ways: one, her insights into Trump’s narcissism; the inherent misogyny against which she, as an accomplished woman, was forced to navigate against within the system (and especially within the framework of the Trump administration); and, three, her expertise as an analyst of the dynamic of Putin’s policies and Russian behavior geopolitically.
It should go without saying that her insights into policy with Russia and Putin’s impact upon geopolitics were superb. It is telling to me that it doesn’t go without saying; rather, that I feel compelled to contextualize it in the framework of Trumpian misogyny to somehow give that due credence.
"What he is doing has GLOBAL consequences" - we saw that for ourselves in the worst way possible. The worst. More children's lives upside down.

putin bully's with heating oil and gas . Now wants Ukraine to get their food
Fiona Hill's book is a great account of a tragic time. I may disagree with some things but I have the utmost respect for her. She is a living example of how public spending on education is not an expense, it is an investment. We need more dedicated public servants like her.
Could you imagine if we had a Fiona Hill for president instead of Donald Trump? I don’t think Putin would have dared to invade Ukraine if the US had that kind of strong clear leadership.
She is of course brilliant. I was awed when I saw her on C-SPAN during the first impeachment. The fact that the Republicans could not find it in their heart of hearts to impeach Trump after her testimony, showed a profound depth of dishonesty.
Fiona Hill, you have my deepest respect. The integrity you’ve shown in your Career Of public service will stand as an example to our better selves for a long time.
Couldn't get better guys. Fiona you always instruct us on our baffling lives.
Fiona Hill describes a world robbed of formal education for all.
The neocons had very formal schooling. Big problem.
0:12 [Fiona Hill] "distinctive with her strong Northern English accent." Hmm... for you Americans, it may sound strong, but speaking as an English man, I think her accent is perfectly normal.
"It showed people that the system was there." F. Hill
My point and journey exactly! He didn't have go to jail but the system held him accountable. And it MUST, otherwise, why bother with laws if they apply to some but not others based on social standing, race, country of birth, gender, social class, occupation... etc...
"Accountable?" Like he cared?
The criminal con-man Trump SHOULD go to jail. Lock Him Up !!!
Fiona Hill makes me proud to be an American. An immigrant granting us her intelligence and knowledge even though born in a different land
I look to the day when intelligent, educated, experienced Fiona will move into the drivers seat (political office) from just an advisory role. How she keeps a clear view of everything going on in the 'world game' (like Monopoly!) is hard to fathom! I'd vote for her on a heartbeat with what I know about her.
That would be great. I'd contribute to her campaign.
I doubt she'd ever run. Usually principled people who work in civil service or non political positions in the government stay far away from politics.
