- RUSSIA VS UKRAINE - USA IS THE ENEMY, WHY IS UKRAINE FIGHTING A PROXY WAR?
The Russia Ukraine has been going on since February 2022. To understand the cause of this war, one needs to understand the history of Russia and Ukraine and PLO takes us through this.
On this episode of LUMUMBA Explains, he looks into reasons as to why USA is funding Ukraine making this clearly a war between Russia and USA. With the position taken by the USA and NATO, the key question remains is Ukraine President Zelenskyy a puppet of the USA? Why is Ukraine fighting a proxy war? How is USA benefitting from this? There are fears of Russia wanting to expand its wings and invade Europe are rife and Lumumba tells us if there’s need to worry and PLO takes us through this (like mr Putin).

let's make it more popular than Mr Putin's interview)
Tucker Carlson is not a journalist and his interview with Putin does serve the interests of African people. It is better to listen to African discuss their interests instead of watching news spectacles that generate views. Feed the African minds instead of the world's intestine.
the mases are listening. let plo lumumba not hide behind big words. the ordinary joe is listening
I expected to hear of the recent rise in neo nazi funded groups. i expected to hear of ussr and putins ambition for a reunification. What a disservice to yourself prof
I have to contradict you... the West does not want any bridge between Russia and Ukraine... the West offered only one option to Ukraine... either it will be in the EU and cut off all relations with Russia or it will be with Russia
SIr you are a wise man. I appreciate your insight.
Professor, intelligent and God fearing may you live long.
"intelligent and god fearing" is an oxymoronic sentence
This man is a blessing not only to Africa but to the World as a whole! Though we are far apart and we don't know each other, he's one of my best friends! From Tanzania!
Hello from Russia 🇷🇺..thank you..we re brothers and sisters. Is true. Respect prof..Russia 🇷🇺 love Africa..❤❤❤❤❤😊😊
Thanks for being good friend Russia under Soviet union helped us to fought against colonialism
I’m African and I hate Russia government but I love the people
We love you too❤

This man is a God given to open Africa’s eyes and to enlighten Africa
This makes a great deal of sense...these people in the hegemon are no longer concerned about their own people. Not at all. If you look at the level of poverty, homelessness in the u.s., it is astounding. And it is increasing by the day.
Well you made some sense here. But unfortunately some people kept blind eye to that. that is Trying to teach your teacher...
Every country has its challenges and Russia has a lot of poverty in the rural areas. Putin and his buddies have pulled hundreds of billions of dollars away from the people and it shows, AVERAGE monthly salary is less than $600 a month. ( Wikipedia July 2023 ). Do not think Russia is better under the current dictator and thief.
All the wealth ends up with the wealthiest
The homelessness is brought by the illegal immigrants who cannot secure a job for themselves and then the end up on the streets. It is not the Americans who are homeless.
That's because of mental health issues and drugs not poverty
Very good summary Mr. Lumumba.Thank you.
So nice of you
this is the tip of man the world need thank God for bringing this tip of man if the world can have more of this tip of man the world will be a better place for all
Every body who wants to understand why russia invaded ukraine needs to watch the recent tucker carlson and Vladimir putin interview just somedays ago which is breaking internet in Europe and america
This TH-cam Channel stated in their comment to make PLO opinion more more popular than the interview because what Putin says negate what PLO said as PLO is aligns with their political views in Nigeria.
We completely agree with you, we recorded the reaction to this interview, watch it on our channel
Total false, Tucker does what he is best at doing. Propaganda. Why was Fox news fined because of Tucker?. Real known journalist will tell you Tucker is not a journalist. A dictator like Putin to choose Tucker , tells you to rethink.
You call this an Interview? more like a speech I would say. Not one critical question...
It's simple, you dnt have to watch anything..Putin is trying to Eliminate the Ukraine culture and replace with Russian culture because he can..simple
Noo! Nobody,including USA, is urging Ukraine to fight for their country. There's some arrangements/contracts which may prove self defeat at a later stage. It's senseless to rely on neutrality on matters that negatively impact on your right of ownership.
Thanks prof for your brilliant ideas.people need to understand the route cause of this war.
Profound!!!
Exellent Speech ! We send Greetings from Czech Republic Bless up ! PEACE
Ahhh proff .......is this you?
It is quite unfortunate to witness the actions of your previous self. It seems that the colonialist mindset is driven by a desire for dominance rather than seeking genuine peace. It is disheartening to note that Putin has compelled neighboring countries to join NATO, which only exacerbates tensions. This situation reminds me of a new proverb: when a fool initiates a war, they often find themselves unable to bring it to a satisfactory conclusion.
Dr. Lumumba, is a very clever and inteligent man, but as an African politician born in the 19's he is still being a comunist thinker, every country and people has the right to decide what the best way and the best partner. Neutrality in Switzerland was not emposed, was free decision.
@rosarioneto17 then allow every country to have nuks as they wish
Bravo Lumumba!
- such a God-given knowledge & wisdom we all need to hear!
America’s pride goes before a fall! - the country has never learned the lesson from the past’s mistakes; still rather create hatred, division, terror, extreme! Fear God! - His Wrath will come upon evil doers!
Could you condemned Russian invasion of Ukraine Hon. Prof.
How true is your statement,and how can one dictate the wish of others as if he is incharge.
True 100 percent!
Thanks to PLO Lumumba for this analysis. How come this has se few views?
Coz Westerners and its co hate to hear the truth. When I watch or listen to this, they pretend as if nothing happened
What a knolegable man fro African soil lv u prf lumumba frm malawi
You are off the scale real love
Great prophet and professor.
Always professing.
Totally disagree. I have seen the pain and devastation of this horrible war. You cannot describe anything over Ukraine. They have chosen their path. Leave them alone rather than yap out of ignorance.
Very encourageable
I pray every body will hear this truet,and understand.thank you lumumbal.
Sir mulumba, for the first time, i disagree with you, sir.
Just because of your love for propaganda from the west and unwillingness to listen to the other party and get your facts right.

I buy your idea professor, but I wonder if the Ukrainian leaders will be willing to do this
very true plo
Well said Africa African love this voice
If Putin wants neutrality, then where comes this idea of annexation of Ukrainian territories?
This side of the story too must be explained .
Very good PLO! THANKS
Thank you too!
Why start the war when you need freedom
That's true our father long lives
There is a reason why Ukraine fight, for independence. Kenya of all countries should know what it means to be independent and why you fight to decide your own future. Any African country or peoples backing Russia misunderstand the situation. Ukraine will be free of Russian tyranny.
You must be so proud of your dumbness
Educate us on the reason then
@@Beex848 The reason why Kenya fought for independence or the reason why Ukraine is doing the same thing against an aggressive invader?
Ukraine is a pawn & its citizens will realise that Russia or NATO aren't in a rush to end the war.Soon Ukraine will have more ammunition but no soldiers.Russian economy is steady & NATO countries are it's biggest trade partners.
Great Prof. You left out Crimea which was the first catalyst.
Speaking the truth ,is the fact
The professor has said it well. ❤
With all due respect Mr. Lumumba, you are wrong regarding the war in Ukraine! Frictions between Ukraine and Russia are deeply entrenched in the history of the two countries. Ukraine and Russia were almost going to war over territorial disputes as early as 1994 and from then onwards Russia sought to infiltrate and weaken Ukraine from within. You are blaming President Zelensky for the war, yet he came to power in 2019 when the war with Russia had been going on since 2014. The reason President Zelensky was pushing to join NATO is because Russia had been occupying Ukraine's territories of Crimea, Lugansk and Donesk since 2014 and threatened conquer more territory. The more Russia occupies Ukraine' territory, the more the latter clamour's to join NATO. You are saying that Ukraine should not join EU and NATO, why not? All Ukraine's neighbours like Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Hungary joined EU and NATO, why not Ukraine? These countries have joined EU and NATO because these organisations are attractive. There are benefits that come with membership of EU and NATO. Ukrainians are observing and comparing their living standards and those of their immediate neighbours that are in NATO and EU and they see a big difference. As a major power, Russia should have used other tools to maintain their influence in Ukraine other than threat and coercion. Russia can for example peacefully attract neighbours otherwise brutal force will force her neighbours to run to NATO.
This Gentleman is Africa's Most Educated and Brilliant Mind
Sadly so😢
Thank you Prof for sharing your well-informed perspective, meticulously as always!
Many thanks!
THEE ALFA HOUSE: the professor Patrick Lumumbar forgot to mention that Russia, USA, UK, etc. guaranteed the territorial integrity and independence of Ukraine provided she gave up her nuclear weapons! Ukraine gave up their weapons and the Russians decided to attack Ukraine. The destruction of the people and the property of Ukraine must be accounted for! jtsdrd, USA
Ukraine violated the agreement and went ahead to associate too much with Western countries and encouraged NATO encroachment to Soviet cleavage of countries Ukraine being one creating existential to threat Russia the bedrock of socialism and communism a threat to NATO and Western capitalist hegemonies under pretended barner of democracy and conditioning cleavage countries as dictatorial without figuring it's America and Britain and allies who true dictators and they fodder in president Zelenky's political stupidity.

Where is democracy in Ukraine? No where, it's now plagued with totalitarian and dictatorial country enjoying power under martial law, most dissenting voices have been banished including other instruments and institutions of power. Robert Cooper wrote a different approach about international politics which largely supports the strength of hegemonic countries like America to create and alter historical dimensions of world affairs by putting the ignorant on collision course of banishment and annihilation.
There's dishonesty deeply guiding Putin's apologism
I have never seen such level of dishonesty lately
Do you think Russia attacking Ukraine was then the best way of stopping Ukraine from joining NATO...?
Ukraine applied for NATO membership in September 2022 after Russia invaded Ukraine the second time.
We are tired off West influence in Africa it's time for us to choose Russia and China they our choice....Big support to Russian 🇿🇦
You comment like a true slave. You have a long way to go.
It time to make are own road not the west or east, this thing of following world power not work
we need to have our own way, let's create strong self-governing nations, how long will we follow them all, they want to benefit from us, no one is good😊
First of all there isn't objectivity in analysis on Ukraine 🇺🇦 Russia 🇷🇺 conflict. According to u Russia didn't breach any terms of the agreement with NATO. Annexing Crimea in 2014 what was it?
In any case, no country should invade a sovereign nation unless threatened. Russia didn't have to invade Ukraine.
No one should invade other country ,if agreed sure some African countries are going to be swallowed
Russia was responding to a treaty signed that NATO won't go beyond former Soviet nations
Can you recall the 1960s Cuban crisis? Was it rumored that US was ready to sink the island because of Russia military presence ? What is wrong with Russia being apprehensive and insisting that Ukraine remains neutral? I was mesmerized by Frederick Taylor capitalism I am abhorred by the current dirty and war like capitalism.
@@festusmburu337after 2014 Ukraine cannot remain neutral
@@KurashigeSir254there no such treaty it was talked about but no formal treaty was ever signed
If zelensky could take this important advice, I think this war btn Ukraine and Russia shall end very soon.
You’ve lost me with basically saying that it’s ok for all of the former Soviet states to remain a satellite of Russia…..a satellite of Putin. 🤨
For someone who was against what colonialism did to Africa he finds nothing wrong with what Russia is doing to former Soviet bloc of countries sees nothing wrong with them being satellite states to Russia. The man is under Putin's pockets

How can Putin want peace while invading others? What are you talking about Prof?
Who invaded libya,iraq,afaghanstan just to mention but a few?Who gave them the moral authority of overseeing the rest?We want a bipolar world,simple.Every black person should know who are for front in the fermentation of the hatred,greed,chaos or deprivation of africa resources.
In as much as I respect this professor, his view or opinion here is a carry over of his sceptical views of the West thinking Russia is better because it has not colonized Africa.
Ukraine was not seeking to join NATO but the EU. Ukraine's joining EU is for economics reason not military. Hence, Russia militarily took Crimea. This is what led Ukraine seeking cover by joining NATO.
This professor should not have his judgement clouded by his mistrust/hate for the Weat.
I am an African.
You too the talk rubbisн
Educate yourself about geopolitics. In 2008 nato opened it bothers for Ukraine to join. It's not hard to find that.

EluPee people, we know you.
N de wo o.
I think Russia had already violated many agreements prior to 2022. The attack on Georgia 🇬🇪, Crimea, and eastern Ukraine.
I think every country has the right to choose who they want to affiliate with.
I think this is what we all want as Africans, to have the power and right to choose who we partner with.
Also, I believe Mr. Putin is an authoritarian and colonialist.
As an African, I'm appalled at the support we render to a country seeking to colonise another country yet we still cry over what we went through.
You might be right from your point of view but you should understand the geo politics,NATO wanted to do to Putin and Russia what they did to Gaddafi,they wanted to provoke Russia through Ukraine,cause Russia is an alternative to different Govt's(eg Syria,the sahel etc) when it comes to defence which the west(USA) sees as a threat
Fantastic p.l.o. Lumumba 😅
This professor has no knowledge of the conflict. Very biased position of view. He needs to research what happened before and what led to the war. It is absurd that he commented on things that he knows nothing about.
Can you tell us what caused this problem?
You have to chart the history of the two countries after independence from 1991 and you will see the divergence. This professor has no knowledge of it. I lived there.
Empty head everywhere. Keep writing rubbish.....
@71minister The professor has no knowledge of the conflict, and you have all the knowledge of it, right? Instead of making an unsubstantiated allegation about the professor you should just point to which part he's wrong with supporting data .
You also seem to have no or less knowledge about the slavs and their history.
Marrying to any woman is ones choice not buy another person or nabour.
You are defending Russia but what you are not telling us is what you think of the legitimate needs of the Ukrainian people. It's all about the interest of Russia and USA. What are the rights of the small countries like Ukraine? Russia has fought with all her neighbors who don't want to be her satellite. What a wonderful neighbor! Please be objective and make another podcast.
You ignorant only too quick to accuse,ignorance is not bliss,check putin latest interview with tucker,then you will see things from eagle point of view not these ignorant sentences
This is what is called the burden of being neighbour to superpower.
The entire southern American people suffered for their geopolitical location. So the best way to avoid war and stay safe is be neutral. Ukraine should have learned from geopolitics history.
It is not a matter of defending Russia. It is simply a matter of being objective, and seeing reality as it is. No country is going to allow another country's decision to jeopardize their security. The US would never in a million years allow Mexico to host a Chinese or Russian military base. Now why would Russia accept Ukraine to threaten their very survival by joining NATO? That would very be acceptable. That should have been common sense to you Ukrainians.
He is very objective. What are USA and European mercenaries doing in Ukraine?
@@Kenya10-n5l Except there are no American or European mercy’s in Ukraine.
Africa stand with Russia always...... 🇿🇦 S AFRICA
its always better when analysis are balanced and not one sided
3 mins into the video and all that is being said is like America is the devil and Russia is a saint, and so many facts are ignored
1. how can Zelensky be a us puppet when he was democratically elected
2. in February 2008 about 58% of Ukrainians voted to join NATO because of Russia's aggression
3. if Russia is so peaceful with its neighbors, why are all its neighbors rushing to join NATO, even the non aligned countries
4. in 2014 Russia attacked Ukraine and captured Crimea, was that USA's fault too ?
5. EU is funding Ukraine and is also trying to get Ukraine to join EU, is that the USA's fault too?
neither USA nor Russia is a saint
its always best to present all the facts and leave it to the viewers, other than stating a narrative
1. he was said to be a puppet of oligarh named Kolomojskij at the beginning. but it's quite easy to re-hire an initially corrupt person given that you have as much of money, as US does.
2. which Russian aggression against Ukraine happened at 2008?
3. because in they do not, NATO inspires a coup d'etat until they do. History of Ukraine's 2 "Maidans" just proofs that.
4. absolutely. before USA and personaly Mrs. Nuland inspired a coup d'etat, Ukraine had a democratically elected Russian-firendly regime, so Russia had no plans to capture anything.
5. what is EU? with UK left and France being flooded with internal problems, it has only 1 serious powerhouse which is Germany, an USA sattelite, where the Chancellor's phone is tapped by American intelligence services and USA military bases with more tens of thousands of soldiers are around the whole country. Do they do something other than US tell them to do?
we're in Russia are not saints and never pretend to be, but your "facts" are cheap. Try better!
So naive.
1. Easily. Do you remember his election program? He probably don't. Slava Cocaine.
2. Which aggression in 2008, remind us please.Ukraine was buying a Russian gas for special low price, is THAT an agression? Maybe groth UA nationalists were real agression?
3. To scare, to buy, to brainwash. Choose one.
4. The Central Committee paid for all Ukrainian Maidans since 2004. The separatists were strongly supported by Victoria Nuland, Chris Murphy, John McCain, Guido Westerwelle, Catherine Ashton, Frans Timmermans, Jacek Protasevich, Linas Linkevicius and others. Nuland's direct speech confirms the millions of dollars listed. Your Russophobia was bought with guts, you guys still haven't figured it out?
6. USA is funding Ukrain[inian] war with Russia so does EU as a mindless puppet.
Europe for Europeans Russia is gonna save Europe again
Long live Putin Russia 🇷🇺
Your speaking style reflects the influence of the three-minute explanation you mentioned. It's crucial to distinguish between voluntary actions and those compelled by specific circumstances. Approximately 90% of Russia's actions can be attributed to provocations by the USA. Consider the extensive involvement of the USA with countries worldwide; it prompts reflection on their intentions. Have you observed Russia engaging in provocations in North America?
U are watching CNN too much
This is the most ridiculous analysis I’ve ever heard from Prof. So Ukraine should not join EU to improve the standard of living of her people because of what Russia will say? You said Russia needs just assurance that Ukraine won’t join NATO? Are you aware that because Russia already annexed Crimea many years ago, that makes Ukraine ineligible for NATO membership?, because NATO cannot admit any country with a territorial dispute?….As someone who follows you, I am disappointed with this talking points which is not based on facts and logic. Putin knew that to prevent any country from joining NATO, all he needed to do, was to occupy parts of those countries as he did in Georgia and later on in Crimea and Eastern Ukraine. So, there was no reason for a full invasion of Ukraine because by annexing Crimea, he knew Ukraine was not eligible for NATO membership. Prof we expect logic from you and not illogical Russian talking points void of logic.
The Constitution of Ukraine, happily left with all the Soviet wealth, stipulates that it is a Neutral state. Crimea tried to jump off Ukraine according UA Constitution issues since 1996 and succeed after 2014 coup realizing they had enough of UA idiots. So shut up.
Once Ukraine joins EU the Nato will bring their missiles n that would b a direct threat to Russia that is un negotiable. US wount allow Russia as well to put their missiles in Cuba
Just because you don't agree with professor doesn't invalidate his point. Your reasoning is flawed. Too much CNN and Western propaganda news has limited people's thinking capacity
Long sentence put full of petty ignorance,you know nothing
Prof this time is wrong.
I disagree with you on this one prof. Russia invaded Ukraine's Crimea and others even long before NATO talk. The question is that has Russia been a peaceful state to his neighbors ?
Egypt,can be Member of NATO.
offcourse de Dr. Pio Lumumba!
Any person that studies history or international relations will know the cause of this war and the forces behind it. Thank you my Prof ❤
Donald Trump mi say . America China, Russia must work together to bring peace to the world
❤👍
No we have heard Mr Erik say they should recolonise Africa and latin america just as you predicted a few months ago.
So you don't want Ukraine to join NATO so that Russia can attack it anytime Putin wants and so that when Putin attacks the fight ends quickly? You are very wrong in my opinion
Very interesting and more has learnt, hope we will change the stand on these wars.But a woe is in Africa because we don't have our own choice of political, education, industry,economic and many ambitions we are the victims.But most presidents are Professors and PhDs mm why are they fooled by the Mr presidents.African leaders open your eyes than just following these people who attracts you to be their side and make you more worth than before and result to poverty of your citizens.
But European and US must keep away from Africa now it's the time
Y do they have to keep away???..when we can't govern ourselves,manage our resources, financial dependents, illiterate and uncivilized
Proff remember Crimea how Crimea was annexed.Demostrations allover Ukraine civilians demanding the president to sign EU application application
What happened in 2014 war?
I like this person
I have respected your messages but this time I strongly disagree with u because u sound more bias. Do u remember the Budapest agreement that required Ukraine to give up its nuclear problems for security guarantees? Do u also know that Ukraine is sovereign state? U have lost my respect. Are u saying u will allow your neighbours interest over yours? Then your country is doomed.
World leaders understand the history and try to act in truth way which can bring peace between Russia and Ukraine
Truth is good
Africa must fix internal issues and play the cards right
Leader vote by western money and citizens are puppet
As USA to do the same
This learned son of Kenyan soil makes us proud. His words are music to the ears of many Africans. One way or another, we will end neocolonialism
The power of knowing history
Several problems with professors view on what actually went down. This war had it's roots back in 2014, well before NATO was even in the picture. The actions of Russia in the Donbass and Crimea in 2014 after the euromaidan would have had any country very clearly looking westwards towards NATO for security guarantees against the Russians and this in hindsight would have prevented the current bloodbath being witnessed in Ukraine. And just before the war, Zelensky himself went on record pledging not to pursue a NATO membership yet Putin still invaded. This is not about Russia's security or buffer zone between it and NATO. This is about Russia pretending to be a super power with it's own sphere of influence that it has sole access to. Ukraine is a sovereign state that should be allowed to decide it's own future, and they chose the more prosperous west. The good prof forgets to mention too that the United States tried to de-escalate for a very long time, they didn't send weapons to Ukraine until the onset of the war and actually together with Germany and the UK refused to admit Ukraine into NATO so as not to anger Russia. Russia can stop this war whenever it chooses, they are the ones that have troops in another country and can pull them out as well. However, historically, there's Czar Nicholas's shadow looming over Putin and he too is stuck. The EU cannot back down from aiding Ukraine because then Russia will be at their border, and they are a country you can't rely on to stick to a treaty. Couple that with the grandiose thought that they're still a great power in the way Soviet Union was and you have a military problem at your border should Ukraine fall. Russia is in decline, not an emerging power. It's demographics are in shambles, it's economy stagnant and heavily reliant on exporting natural resources and they have nukes. That's just about it all. And last, the Ukrainians, the Poles, the Czech, the Hungarians and the Baltics all have lived under the Russians in the Soviet days. They are not mad to vigorously refuse to be under the Russians ever again. Acquiescing to a tyrant's demand today will be akin to what the British did in 1938 and allowed the annexation of Austria and part of Czechoslovakia called Sudenteland. It is the same playbook but this time with nukes in play.
Those who know history know truth.
History is one thing but there was no legal binding agreement. Secondly regardless of history would you pick the EU as a partner for life or a dictator and thief? Ukraine has the right to choose and did.
