      David and team I’ve been watching your videos since you started in 2019.
      You always produce great content and even though I did study some areas of the Cold War in the mid nineties at university I still find out something new in every video you make.
      Thank you all for your hard work and quality content 👍
      Also a while back some criticised David and he addressed those comments, took note and improved from v good to bloody great imo 😊

    We don't talk enough about the Qazaqs and the Soviet dissidents, I never even heard of the Asharshylyk, the 1986 replacement of the first secretary by a Russian and the protests that went with it. I even barely heard of Zukholov, so seeing his evolution as an anti-nuclear activist was really interesting.

    Hello David, I love your channel and have watched it for several months. Great job you are doing! I was born in the USSR (not that far from Semipalatinsk) and witnessed many of these things with my eyes, but I still could learn new facts from your videos. That would be absolutely fantastic if you pay a bit more attention to pronouncing key toponyms and surnames. With all respect to the fact that it is impossible for a non-native speaker to fully comprehend correct intonation, please at least pay attention to where the stress goes. It is killing my ears to hear how you say "Saharov" in a way as if he has something to do with the Sahara desert. The stress in his surname goes on the first vowel. The same way as in many English words. Same for Glasnost. Thank you a lot!

    Regarding the legacy of Semipalatinsk, I'd like to add a good note and a message of hope, not just to Kazakhstan, but to mankind as a whole: There has been an effort to free mankind from nuclear weapons and one of the manisfestations of that is the development of so-called "zones free of nuclear weapons", they are established by treaties, which usually are signed in places that bear a symbolic weight in the fight for de-nuclearization. Central Asia has become a zone free of nuclear weapons in the 2000s, throught the "Semipalatinks treaty". The choice of the city is self-explanatory.
    For the record: Antartica (since the 50s), Latin America (60s), Oceania-Pacific (80s, a continent that suffered greatly under western powers' nuclear tests), South East Asia and Africa (both in the 90s) are also zones free of nuclear weapons. As a matter of fact, the whole southern hemisphere, half of planet Earth, is a zone free of nuclear weapons since the 90s (it only takes you to add up all the regions up to Africa and you'll see).

    It is very interesting to say the least that the producers chose to spell it as ‘Kazakhstan’ in the title but spell it consistently as ‘Qazaqstan’ (the decolonized, native way of pronouncing the country name) in the subtitles.
    I assume this has to do with the fact that in English and other languages, the Russian name for it is far more popular and thus, has more search results.

    And the US and UK literally smashed Pacific Ocean atolls between them in this process...I suppose they were tiny and insignificant, so it was alright anyway, eh??

    • @bizbe4465
      @bizbe4465 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Yeah considering the atolls were evacuated and mostly uninhabited aside from a select few islands. These select few islands were military bases/research labs.
      This area of khazakstan was only a few hundred kilometers away from a large population of people. One does not equal the other.

    • @bizbe4465
      @bizbe4465 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      There is no "only" America dropped the bomb knowing it would kill thousands. The USSR dropped nukes knowing it would kill thousands. North Korea dropped nukes knowing they would kill thousands.
      America's was only different in that it was used this way in a war. Where as the USSR and North Korea dropped bombs right next to villages and towns.

    If you look at the nuclear tests on a map compared to the us , you will notice that the Soviet Union actually spread out their tests over the country unlike the west wich nuked islands .

    • @bizbe4465
      @bizbe4465 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Yeah the US generally chose very unpopulated areas. Some cases beg to differ. But by in large America was more responsible with their testing than the USSR was.

    It would have been helpful to put the word "Semipalatinsk" on the map next to the location. Or, you could have said, "indicated by the red area on the map here." It also would have been helpful to put the word "Semipalatinsk" on screen instead of just saying it. The map making on this channel definitely is on a much lower level compared to your sister channel.
