Ukraine is not Switzerland, we dont have moutains on all sides that can result in insanely harsh conditions for atackers and turn their logistics Into absolute hell. We also dont have all the money in the world. We are like Poland - flat land on all sides, easy to roll tanks across. No firmly strong economy, and powerful country with many resources on the border. Countries like this should have backup/nukes/other guarantees.
Absolutely tragic, what’s happening over there. Wish we could do something to help, but most who even know just don’t care. Stay safe, war can’t last forever.
As a Syrian, I tell you that the lives of Syrians have become hell because of this war. This war has also resulted in the displacement of millions of innocent Syrians outside their homeland, and because Syrians in Syria are suffering because of the low income rate and the collapsed economy (1 dollar = 14,000 Syrian pounds). 💔
its even sadder realising that the countries who start this war (europe and US) first fund the weapons, then when syrians flee to safer countries (those EXACT countries) they say "refugee bad!!!"
War has changed. It's no longer about nations, ideologies, or ethnicity. It's an endless series of proxy battles fought by mercenaries and machines. War - and its consumption of life - has become a well-oiled machine. War has changed. ID-tagged soldiers carry ID-tagged weapons, use ID-tagged gear. Nanomachines inside their bodies enhance and regulate their abilities. Genetic control. Information control. Emotion control. Battlefiled control. Everything is monitored and kept under control. War has changed. The age of deterrence has become the age of control...All in the name of averting catastrophe from weapons of mass destruction. And he who controls the battlefield...controls history. War has changed. When the battlefield is under total control...War becomes routine.

Ukraine war isn’t a typical example of proxy war. It is a local theatre of a global conflict between the American and Chinese blocks. The Russians have their troops “on the ground”, so to call it a proxy war you have to assume that 🇷🇺 acts only as a proxy for 🇨🇳, in a similar way 🇺🇦 is for the West. It is evolving in that direction and of course 🇷🇺 is the weaker partner, but we are not there yet.
Some example of cold wars 1. Korean war 2. Vietnam war 3. Kosovo independence 4.syrian civil war 5. Yemen civil war 6. Iraq iran war 7. Soviet afghan war 8 israel iran war 9. Ukraine war 10. Indo pak war (Bangladesh liberation)
what do you mean only in winter? Winter is the most difficult season to fight in. Most old wars therefore were fought in the summer when logistics and feeding troops was easier.
Ukraine in my opinion isn't exactly a proxy war because it's more closer to what the allies did to support each other. We don't say America fought a proxy war in UK against 1940s Germany.
I see your point but only if you look at it from 2022 onward. Its a proxy war still. The US has been fighting over influence of Ukraine with Russia for over a decade. Ukraine is yet another victim of two superpowers fighting over control of them.
Proxy wars never ended , ask the middle east about that , america had one terrorist attack and acted like it was the first to have sucj a thing but people don't know what poor countries suffered , Algeria had terrorist attacks where they raid a village cut people's heads and kill babies without any reason and no one knows who where they , Tunisia had the same things and there's a huge number of terrorism no one talks about them because those who sent them are the ones to control the media and decide what's considered terrorism .

@@bachvandals3259Emirates also are bad and hypocrite, Saudi is our only allie, they only support the Yemeni government not militias like those two, we don't want UAE or Iran in Yemen, Saudi has been our only friend, houthi came in power in 2015 took the capital Sana by force with the help of Iran, since then our lives has been a hell more than what we had before 2015, then the real Yemeni government requested help from Saudis, since then they have been giving aid to Yemeni's today 3 million Yemeni live in Saudi Arabia, they are building hospitals and schools in our country, they have been giving us water and electricity, if UAE and Iran love us, I want to see them aiding Yemen only 1 percent of what Saudi's are giving us, I want to see them helping us and host us in their country if they really support us.
This is the exact reason ive told people we keep funding Ukraine. The US doesn't want to fight Russia directly and feels what Russia is doing is wrong so we are funding another country to fight that battle
THIS! What is the solution, trying to find a solution is difficult. Our international laws cannot prevent nor control these type of wars. Additionally, there are layers to these proxy-wars that even may supported by 3rd and 4th countries. The only price will be paid by blood of the victim country...

Dirty being doing the thing that NATO was created for? Preventing Russia from expanding into Europe. Whether you like NATO or not they techically are just doing what they were made for, just here they are using Ukraine to prevent them. Its not like Russia isnt using Proxy wars as well. Russia is just as dirty as NATO
@@Nazar_MelnykIf one follows the news for a longer period of time the patterns are clear, and though not fully evident in the video, such a belief does align
The annoying thing is that NATO could knock the RF out for decades, if it brought its full might in Ukraine now, as its clear the RF is very much weaker than it claimed.
The conflict around Taiwan, if it keeps escalating, will make every war going on right now look like your average Tuesday. That's where the powder keg is.
I wouldn’t say Ukraine qualifies as a proxy war at all. It’s collective self defence, the right to which is enshrined in the UN charter. If Belarus had attacked Ukraine, bolstered by Russia, we would be closer to the term.
It actually is a proxy war,Nato is using Ukraine to wound Russia without actually engaging Russia with their own troops which qualifys this as a proxy war
"NATO is fighting Russia in Ukraine". It's crazy how Ukranians never thought about defending themselves against a Russian invasion until NATO decided to step in. Why dont other countries have their own agencies??
Exactly bravo in 2014 when poroshenko came to power (a neo not see and pro nato president) the country became more connected to bandera because of him and the government so blame him for Crimea invasion and his policies
Yes really. Plus what these russian bots / trolls don't understand is that most westerns will do anything to prevent a Russian neo empire No matter the cost Ukraine will win
Its a short. It is a marketing short for the upcoming video he mentioned to hook people in with a simplified version of what he will talk about (unless the vid is equally oversimplified, we will judge then)
True. Those are two very different situations, when you have civil war going on in the country & foreign countries choose sides to back or when your country is under invasion & you ask a foreign countries to help you to fight the invasion as it's in case of Ukraine. NATO didnt push it's help, the help was asked.
I mean, it’s still a proxy war in the sense that the war and support of Ukraine supports natos interest of weakening Russia and discouraging further Russian aggression and expansion. Also despite what media and propaganda would have you believe, proxy doesn’t explicitly mean puppet. Hamas for example is a proxy of Iran but still largely acts independently, following Tehran’s orders far less than most of the other militias they support like Hezbollah
Are you uneducated or ignorant? USA organized a coup in Russia with the intention of installing a puppet to create a proxy war against Russia. Before the war, your own racist whyt nazi countries spoke about nazis operating in Ukraine. Now you want to come and deny it while defending your fellow nazis
The Russian-Ukraine war is not a proxy war. WW2 was also not a proxy war even though the USA sent massive amounts of weapons to the UK before they too got attacked.
The wars are not the same. Russia attacked Ukraine after NATO did some acts of clear provocation (trying to expand which would threaten Russia), the Russia attacked in an act of defense.
@@spheleleNgubane-i4w I‘m not going into detail how idiotic this statement truly is. Just ask yourself why Russia started an invasion in a country that was nowhere near joining NATO and didn’t move a finger when two neighbours (Finland and Sweden) actually applied for and joined NATO afterwards. Russia is not scared of an invasion. No one needs to be scared of an invasion if you process a nuclear arsenal like Russia. They want territory and the west is helping Ukraine defend itself. It’s not a proxy war against Russia, we’d all be happy if they just retreated from Ukrainian land.
@@spheleleNgubane-i4w so you invade the country that was pretty dedicated to staying neutral. seems it didnt work too well for putin because now most ukrainians are in support of joining nato whereas previously they were not.
where are the F 35s and long range missiles, Apache helicopters? where are the NATO troops? If NATO were fighting Russia a conventional war Putin would have lost long ago. HIMARS are almost 40 year old tech.
NATO is not fighting a proxy war in Ukraine. It certainly has interests in the region and thus is supporting the Ukraine to defend itself, but that’s not what a proxy war is. In fact, it’s a very Russian narrative to call it a “proxy war”.
I agree Russia is cringe and authoritarian and should lose, but let's not kid ourselves, the West was encircling it. I think Russia is on the wrong side of history but their reaction is logical and expected from a fascist cleptocracy.
@@mateusnicolinibezerra9757 every action can be rationalized. That doesn’t mean that the rationale is true, though. It’s not “circling in” when neighbor countries are distancing themselves from Russia, due to a bad common history and now present. Russia’s recent actions gave NATO again a purpose. In the early 2000s the alliance had almost become obsolete, and now Russia made it again more relevant than ever before.
@@georghauer7811 I mean, the USA sponsored anti Russian opposition and was spreading anti Russian propaganda for a century already. For example Nuland admitted that the USA spent 6 billion dollars to "boost democracy in Ukraine". Obviously Russia didn't want to have 40 million Nazis at their borders again
"A proxy war is characterised by a direct, long-term, geopolitical relationship between the third-party sponsor states and their client states and non-state clients,[2] thus the political sponsorship becomes military sponsorship when the third-party powers fund the soldiers and their matériel to equip the belligerent proxy-army to launch and fight and sustain a war to victory, and government power.[2] The relationship between sponsors and proxies can be characterized by principal-agent problems whereby the sponsor may be unable to control the actions of the proxy" - that's a definition mate. Just because your media told you to care about Ukraine more than about other 20 wars across the globe - doesn't mean it's not a proxy
If you count economic and weapon support as having a proxy, even "peaceful" countries like Germany have more proxies than Iran. It's just that these weapon markets are not very well known by the average citizen.
lol search the war in donbass and analyze it, america support kiev regime and russia support donbass uprising or seperates donetsk & luhansk. learn west bot
@@MINDBLOWING_YT-v1c it is a conflict between 2 nation states simple as that. You are sipping on Russian propaganda if you think that the donbass secessionists weren't funded by the Kremlin from the start. anyway regardless of what happened before the war is now between Russia and Ukraine. Ask the Ukrainians if they wanna be a part of Russia now and you will see that there is no civil war amongst them.
Well there are two sides to every war. Ukraine conflict is a power struggle between Russia who wants to build their empire and nato who wants to surround Russia so that they can cause ethnic and political conflict in Russia and prevent Russian hegemony while maintaining their own hegemony
How is ukraine a proxy war, it's a war between russia and Ukraine russia has no proxy. Its like calling ww2 q Proxy war between the US and Germany (till the declaration of war) because we armed the allies
Man, that does not seem fair for the peace seeking people like me in smaller countries. If Americans do not see what the world truly is and get better, we gonna learn the hard way.
War is also a business. People in the government, and the corporations that make the weapons, are the ones that win with a proxy war.
And the people caught in the crossfire lose.
The ones who make money from the business of war are taking advantage of the situation and NOT the reason for it.

It's a shame that the people who have the real power are all the same. They do not care and want more for themselves and very little for anyone else.
This greed for more power and resources will lead to destruction of whole mankind if this keeps going.
@@bachvandals3259Emirates also are bad and hypocrite, Saudi is our only allie, they only support the Yemeni government not militias like those two, we don't want UAE or Iran in Yemen, Saudi has been our only friend, houthi came in power in 2015 took the capital Sana by force with the help of Iran, since then our lives has been a hell more than what we had before 2015, then the real Yemeni government requested help from Saudis, since then they have been giving aid to Yemeni's today 3 million Yemeni live in Saudi Arabia, they are building hospitals and schools in our country, they have been giving us water and electricity, if UAE and Iran love us, I want to see them aiding Yemen only 1 percent of what Saudi's are giving us, I want to see them helping us and host us in their country if they really support us.
This is the exact reason ive told people we keep funding Ukraine. The US doesn't want to fight Russia directly and feels what Russia is doing is wrong so we are funding another country to fight that battle
THIS! What is the solution, trying to find a solution is difficult. Our international laws cannot prevent nor control these type of wars.
Additionally, there are layers to these proxy-wars that even may supported by 3rd and 4th countries.

I hope someday you realize how naïve this ideology is.
@bloodmoon5744 wishful thinking is not naive obviously you're never been in the military and nor have you been in a war
Glad to see a video about this educating people about how dirty NATO really is.
Dirty being doing the thing that NATO was created for? Preventing Russia from expanding into Europe. Whether you like NATO or not they techically are just doing what they were made for, just here they are using Ukraine to prevent them. Its not like Russia isnt using Proxy wars as well. Russia is just as dirty as NATO
And what "dirty action" did NATO commence, that were mentioned in this video?
NATO isn't even in the Ukraine war, equipment yeah, soldiers no.... Russia getting curb stomped by Ukrainian soldiers.they just can't admit it
@@Nazar_MelnykIf one follows the news for a longer period of time the patterns are clear, and though not fully evident in the video, such a belief does align
Russia invaded Ukraine
The annoying thing is that NATO could knock the RF out for decades, if it brought its full might in Ukraine now, as its clear the RF is very much weaker than it claimed.
It also happened in the past

The conflict around Taiwan, if it keeps escalating, will make every war going on right now look like your average Tuesday. That's where the powder keg is.
I wouldn’t say Ukraine qualifies as a proxy war at all. It’s collective self defence, the right to which is enshrined in the UN charter. If Belarus had attacked Ukraine, bolstered by Russia, we would be closer to the term.
It actually is a proxy war,Nato is using Ukraine to wound Russia without actually engaging Russia with their own troops which qualifys this as a proxy war
"NATO is fighting Russia in Ukraine".
It's crazy how Ukranians never thought about defending themselves against a Russian invasion until NATO decided to step in. Why dont other countries have their own agencies??
Exactly bravo in 2014 when poroshenko came to power (a neo not see and pro nato president) the country became more connected to bandera because of him and the government so blame him for Crimea invasion and his policies

@@l-e-v-117 ok but atleast he must have mentioned words like ideological differences, geopolitical strategy, resource control, etc
True. Those are two very different situations, when you have civil war going on in the country & foreign countries choose sides to back or when your country is under invasion & you ask a foreign countries to help you to fight the invasion as it's in case of Ukraine. NATO didnt push it's help, the help was asked.
Not really
Correction: Russia is fighting NATO through Ukraine. Russia planned this war, not NATO.
Nope. It fights ukraine. Causenit wants its land
Johnny, are you ready to enlist? We need you on the front lines
which frontlines?
Can’t wait for Proxy Wars over Proxy Wars over Proxy Wars (that are over proxy wars forever)!
NATO is helping Ukraine defending its borders against Russia!
I mean, it’s still a proxy war in the sense that the war and support of Ukraine supports natos interest of weakening Russia and discouraging further Russian aggression and expansion. Also despite what media and propaganda would have you believe, proxy doesn’t explicitly mean puppet. Hamas for example is a proxy of Iran but still largely acts independently, following Tehran’s orders far less than most of the other militias they support like Hezbollah
Absolutely. Ukraine is begging for our help. That's a big difference vs. Vietnam for example.
still a proxy war
Let's be fcking real here, you and I know damn well that NATO also sees the war in Ukraine as a convenient point to hollow out Russia.

Could you analyze it from an international banking system POV.
He is right......are we talking about what he is referencing too.......😊
NATO is not fighting Russia. NATO is supporting a country defending itself against the Russian aggression.
Are you uneducated or ignorant? USA organized a coup in Russia with the intention of installing a puppet to create a proxy war against Russia. Before the war, your own racist whyt nazi countries spoke about nazis operating in Ukraine. Now you want to come and deny it while defending your fellow nazis
That's a proxy war.
That is what a proxy war is, you nailed that definition.
@@GodSaveTheUnitedStates not really cause only one side is Proxy and its not the aggressor.
@@tyribrew7709 clearly you don’t know the definition yourself
Proxy governments fighting religious wars while we watch space ships on our phones.
For the US, WW2 was a proxy war until 1941…
Proxy wars need an outside power supporting it on both sides tho…
Hey this is why our inflations so high. They cold store our cash or debit funds in accounts that don’t let the money get recirculated.
The Russian-Ukraine war is not a proxy war. WW2 was also not a proxy war even though the USA sent massive amounts of weapons to the UK before they too got attacked.
The wars are not the same. Russia attacked Ukraine after NATO did some acts of clear provocation (trying to expand which would threaten Russia), the Russia attacked in an act of defense.
@@spheleleNgubane-i4w I‘m not going into detail how idiotic this statement truly is. Just ask yourself why Russia started an invasion in a country that was nowhere near joining NATO and didn’t move a finger when two neighbours (Finland and Sweden) actually applied for and joined NATO afterwards.
Russia is not scared of an invasion. No one needs to be scared of an invasion if you process a nuclear arsenal like Russia. They want territory and the west is helping Ukraine defend itself. It’s not a proxy war against Russia, we’d all be happy if they just retreated from Ukrainian land.
@@spheleleNgubane-i4w so you invade the country that was pretty dedicated to staying neutral. seems it didnt work too well for putin because now most ukrainians are in support of joining nato whereas previously they were not.
@@meesamkhan4767 Ukraine was not dedicated to staying neutral, they wanted to join NATO.
@@spheleleNgubane-i4w polls conducted in ukraine pre-2014 as well as before 2022 say otherwise 😊

It is more correct to say that Russia is fighting with NATO in Ukraine. Don’t think that NATO really needs this conflict.
I was also reacting on the way he said that
Yeah ok. NATO is an abstract body. Ukraine is on the border with Russia. So no, his original line was the correct way to draw it.
where are the F 35s and long range missiles, Apache helicopters? where are the NATO troops? If NATO were fighting Russia a conventional war Putin would have lost long ago. HIMARS are almost 40 year old tech.
@@someyoutuber99 If NATO is an abstract body to you, look it up, it's very well defined!
extremely naive
Do countries send soldiers in a proxy war
Ukrain isn't a proxy war though. Russia is litterally in ukrain
So?
So was the USA in Vietnam. Ukraine can also be labeled a proxy war
Cold war 2: electric boogaloo
NATO is not fighting a proxy war in Ukraine. It certainly has interests in the region and thus is supporting the Ukraine to defend itself, but that’s not what a proxy war is. In fact, it’s a very Russian narrative to call it a “proxy war”.
I agree Russia is cringe and authoritarian and should lose, but let's not kid ourselves, the West was encircling it. I think Russia is on the wrong side of history but their reaction is logical and expected from a fascist cleptocracy.
@@mateusnicolinibezerra9757 every action can be rationalized. That doesn’t mean that the rationale is true, though. It’s not “circling in” when neighbor countries are distancing themselves from Russia, due to a bad common history and now present. Russia’s recent actions gave NATO again a purpose. In the early 2000s the alliance had almost become obsolete, and now Russia made it again more relevant than ever before.
lol
@@georghauer7811 I mean, the USA sponsored anti Russian opposition and was spreading anti Russian propaganda for a century already. For example Nuland admitted that the USA spent 6 billion dollars to "boost democracy in Ukraine". Obviously Russia didn't want to have 40 million Nazis at their borders again
"A proxy war is characterised by a direct, long-term, geopolitical relationship between the third-party sponsor states and their client states and non-state clients,[2] thus the political sponsorship becomes military sponsorship when the third-party powers fund the soldiers and their matériel to equip the belligerent proxy-army to launch and fight and sustain a war to victory, and government power.[2]
The relationship between sponsors and proxies can be characterized by principal-agent problems whereby the sponsor may be unable to control the actions of the proxy" - that's a definition mate. Just because your media told you to care about Ukraine more than about other 20 wars across the globe - doesn't mean it's not a proxy
WW2: The wars that would end all non proxy wars
Iran has the most proxies in the eorld
USA joined the chat
Nope
USA and Russia are wayyy ahead of Iran.
If you count economic and weapon support as having a proxy, even "peaceful" countries like Germany have more proxies than Iran. It's just that these weapon markets are not very well known by the average citizen.
The "Cold War" was only cold for the main perpetrators - not so cold for their victims.
Ukraine is not a proxy war because Russia is fighting against Ukraine directly. It also isn't a civil war which most proxy wars are...
NATO vs Russia is the proxy war

@@MINDBLOWING_YT-v1c it is a conflict between 2 nation states simple as that. You are sipping on Russian propaganda if you think that the donbass secessionists weren't funded by the Kremlin from the start. anyway regardless of what happened before the war is now between Russia and Ukraine.

NO! Misleading. NATO is helping Ukraine defending its borders, not attacking Russia

Well there are two sides to every war. Ukraine conflict is a power struggle between Russia who wants to build their empire and nato who wants to surround Russia so that they can cause ethnic and political conflict in Russia and prevent Russian hegemony while maintaining their own hegemony
