The East and South region in Ukraine asked Putin for help and voted to be coming a part of Russia. Nato is a war organisation that doesnt work for peace.
Lex is nothing more than a Russian shill. He insists on using Russian, ignores the key points Zelensky raised, and is only chasing views. He’s sold himself out for his next interview with Putin. This guy is a complete joke.

@@Killspec This isn't about "hating on Lex" or being against peace - it's about recognizing that vague platitudes about peace while ignoring war crimes enable further aggression. When Zelensky raised documented issues of kidnapped children, bombed civilians, and violated international agreements, Lex responded with philosophical musings instead of addressing these realities. Real peace isn't built by ignoring atrocities or speaking the invader's language while sidestepping evidence of war crimes. Peace comes through strength, accountability, and confronting uncomfortable truths - not providing diplomatic cover for an aggressor's actions. If you want peace, start by demanding Russia ends its unprovoked invasion, withdraws to Ukraine's internationally recognized 1991 borders, and stops targeting civilians. Real peace means restoring Ukraine's sovereignty, returning kidnapped children, and holding war criminals accountable. Anything less isn't pursuing peace - it's enabling continued aggression through silence.
Different cultures, different countries. There are more guns in the US than there are citizens. while I’m here though, how come on google maps I see Soviet Union propaganda still in small villages on the Ukraine side? One post office I seen had a Soviet propaganda mural inside the lobby. One town had a sign type thing with Soviet lettering and symbols. I’m genuinely curious. There is clearly still some areas of Ukraine that show Soviet sympathies lol
Imagine your neighbor said he would never put a fence onto your property, but every year he moves it one foot further onto your yard until he's at your window. This is how the Russians feel.
@@bottledwater4484Ukraine was/is not a fence, and never did encroach on foreign territory. Too bad about the fence analogy though - If Ukraine was in NATO, lots of russian and Ukrainian lives would have been spared, because Russia would never invade. They feel wrong.
Exactly. You're disgusting Lex. Pandering to this mass murdering, utter grifter a pawmn of the globalist ghouls, trying to manifest their disgusting one world order. Rusdia has a sovereign right to exist. We Americans have been extorted by endless war and 57 failed regime changes. Our globalist government has turned us into tax slaves. Iver $1 TRILLION has been stolen by US politicians and intelligence and given to Project Ukraine since 2010. And you soft ball and try to convince E Trump to keep funding and kicking. FU both!
There could be peace if Putin realises that his fight is futile. Ukrainians will not surrender and besides weapons Ukraine are the superior force. They are the greater fighters and Putin knows this. It's why he has North Koreans dying for him on the battlefield in Kursk. Look into actual fighting tactics and you'll see Ukrainian troops are much more superior on the battlefield. Putin just doesn't know how to save face and is counting on Trump to dig him out of this hole.
@@diamondplatinum3157 ukrainians are fighting for themselves, for their freedom, for the safety of their families, not for the president. But nice try.
No denying lex is out of touched with history etc. Glad Ukraine have strong leader with intelligent and character. Rooting/pray for trump to side Ukraine survival Minsk agreement must be kept.
I feel so sorry for Zelynsky, that man loves his country and he's dealing with something that no democratic country should ever deal with and yet his nation doesn't receive the same type of support that other nations do when him and his country morally deserves the upmost support, they've fought so damned hard...these people deserve to win!
What are you saying?this is not the first war you know?there has never been any war in history where a side has received so much support.militarily or financially.maybe you can say Israel but I don't think it's the same level.the truth is Ukraine wouldn't be in existence if not for nato allies support.over 30 strongest countries in the world militarily and economically.to say otherwise won't help Ukraine
@@mariojaime9910 where did you read this B.S from? Fighting the Russians is overwhelmingly a popular move in Ukraine lmfao. Sit safe on your computer now.
@@Brejamlyn I know for a fact ur not only not in Ukraine, but also don't speak to anyone in Ukraine, otherwise you wouldn't make such a stupid statement. The only Ukrainians who's pro-war, are the ones outside of their country. As matter a fact, they become more patriotic the further they get from there.
@@bottledwater4484 Yevgeny Prigozhin had massive troll farms posting pro-russian comments everywhere. I suppose there are Ukrainian, Chinese, North Korean bots: is just that Russian bots are always too blatant.
@@echo-trip-1Hitler said the same thing about the countries he invaded. Do you think they were having a good time? What about all the germans who opposed him? You are just as naive as Lex. This interview was an eye opener.
You do realize this is all NATO's fault.. right? via the United States? AND Trump has supported this claim? If Putin established military on the States borders i.e, Mexico, then the States would probably do the EXACT same thing as Putin against Russia. This is a war on the basis of balance of power. It's not even Ukraine's battle.
The delusion is that Lex thinks that Trump and Musk are seriously interesteed in bringing about a peace in Ukraine. I was take aback at Lex's praise for them. I find them despicable.
Lex discusses the matter of the interpretation in the first 7 min of the full interview. This is very good information going into the conversation. In person interpretation was used with multiple languages.
@@fathergvdas long as he doesn't drag the USA into war with Russia than I don't care.... Either way they have already received a ton of money and munitions from the USA. Ukraine should appreciate the USA either way. We helped them but they couldn't help themselves to make peace with Russia. At this point hold them back but never attack the Russian "motherland". Make peace with Trump & Putin. Zelesky is too weak, he needs trump in the meeting
100%, except not that great - because it’s so obvious. Even with his background in entertainment: it should have better prepared him for this. Oh well. Needed more leather chaps stripper heel dance practice. It happens. This is C level acting.
He seems pretty clear eyed about what is sustainable and what isn't for Ukraine. The attitude from the host about "coming together" is bizarrely conciliatory to you know who 🙄.....wonder if I'm missing something in his translation.
yeah he straight up lied in the beginning of the interview. He posted two parts of this interview. One video was 3 hrs and then there is this one. he lied in the 3 hrs one
Nah, this made me completely lost respect for him. This is a 10 year old year olds sort of logic. If a leader of a country decides to compare another world leader to a Harry Potter villain, it shows just how unfit they are. I want the best for Ukraine, but Zelensky is not the man who is going to bring that. He is harming Ukraine and Ukrainians..
It's funny how Lex dresses like a President every day even though he's a Podcaster, and Zelenskyy dresses like a Podcaster every day even though he's a President.
In Ukraine there is a word "pidzhaki" or suits is a negative term. It explains someone acting like he is elite, puting form over purpose. He can walk around in his underwear as long as he fulfills his duties. And his duty in this situation is to provide the country with weapons and means to repel aggression.
You are insensitive to what this man is dealing with...a lesser man would be in an insane asylum by now. He's dealt with horrible atrocities against his countrymen and simply wants peace... Ukraine was ATTACKED and INVADED by Russia. Ukraine didn't start this fight, they're simply defending themselves and I can relate to that!
I really feel for Zelenskyy for having to negotiate with Trump. Trump has zero values or principles. He’s ignorant of the complexities of Putin’s desires and strategies. He’s purely transactional, reducing everything to a business deal measured by money. So many Ukrainians have fought their hearts out for freedom and autonomy. Zelenskyy has more character and integrity in his little finger than Trump ever had. Putin was bred KGB. He knows how to manipulate.
Good: Security Guarantee. In fact, I've given you a detailed checklist of issues that you should embrace to make the security, and set the tone for the rest of world as it pertains to how many weapons, and what types of weapons.
The former. For example, its not OK for me to go to another country with a group of people buy some land and then say we want our land to belong to our originating country. Thats not how it works. Thats why i dony agree with israeli settlements in the west bank even though i generally agree for israels right to exist.
Thank you Lex for doing this. Please educate the people who are being fooled and lied to about what has been and is happening in Ukraine. Glory to the people and the heroes.
It won't be easy to do...like he said, if the leaders truly love their country they'll need to put aside their bitterness for each other and consider the consequences for not doing anything about it...Ottawa Canada
Russian gas (and Russian energy in general) has been the most expensive, self-harming endeavor by Europe in this century because it enabled autocracy in its biggest threat: Russia. Had they diversified energy (instead of closing down Nuclear and even coal), Putin would have been deterrent more effectively. The result of relying on Russian Energy is this: War is back on European soil.
I admire lex for trying to get through to him but he is standing up trying to defend and protect the people that has lost everything to someone who thought he was a threat
Our proposal is that America steals Russian money and that they will receive it from us without any problems and then give it back to America for weapons. We are not asking for a gift. I think the poor guy is not aware of what he is saying 😂
@@h2didenkov the KGB has a psy-op technique called mis information. A KGB officer who kills journalists is telling you not to trust a democratically elected by the people leader.
Lol a crook? You do realize, well I guess you don't, but that our very own Pentagon fails a 1 billion dollar audit every year for the past 6'ish or so years. Nearly 1 BILLION dollars are GONE!!!! No one bats an eye, Congress does nothing and you talk about crooks? Perhaps you should specify which crook guild you are referring to and why it's relevant. Ah yes, here's the copy paste for ya "The U.S. Department of Defense confirmed on Friday that the Pentagon failed its seventh consecutive audit and failed to give a full account for its $824 billion budget." YOU'RE SERIOUSLY WORRIED ABOUT Z BEING A CROOK? WTF BRO
The little squat, jewish comedian with sexy dancing skills is truly the last bulwhark between Freedom and the cartoonishly evil, moustache twirling, world-ending villain-of-the-month. And pay no attention to the little biolabs behind the curtain.
Actually Russia is ranked the number one most corrupt country. Ukraine was number two, but under Zelensky it has made leaps and bounds in rooting it out. An argument can even be made that the corruption stemmed from Russian puppet politicians that were abound in Ukraine until recently.
Thats just cause your view of him is tainted by sino-russian propaganda. Both countries are paying billions of dollars to warp people like you. And unfortunately you will never get pulled out of it.
The money we gave to this guy and his military basically telling the American people you have no say where the taxpayer money goes , I'm not watching this
Most of that money never leaves the USA and goes straight back into the economy...besides the usa caused all this by making the Ukraine give up their nukes on the promise of economic help and protection...
It was very very insulting for Lex to keep telling Zelenskyy that he wants peace...AS IF...Zelenskyy does not. It is his country and people that have being shattered and ravaged.---he wants *peace* more than Lex is clearly capable of comprehending. It was insulting on another level. Most of us expect that Trump is going to coerce/pressure Zelenskyy into agreeing to giving up some of his country FOR PEACE. Make Zelenskyy look bad if he doesn't agree...make him look like he is the one who doesn't care about peace!!! Many of us think that Trump is going to make sure that Putin gains something from this horrific war of greed and aggression. Zelenskyy would have to lose something substantial AND THAT IS WRONG. That is probably trump's "way" for peace...... But as Zelenskyy wisely said... there are possibilities... yes, a whole range of possibilities, some good, some very bad. I'm sure Zelenskyy knows well that there is a very good chance trump will work for Putin's benefit, and will pressure Zelenskyy to concede to some things Putin wants. Notice that Zelenskyy keeps saying he *hopes* trump will be on Ukraine's *side*...translation...(the right side)...and he is not necessarily expecting that. Hope is the key word. Zelenskyy is obviously a very smart man!!!
Listen.. lex is not wrong. Sometimes you need to negotiate and make hard decisions to have peace. It's easy for zelensky to fight a war he is not fighting or any of his loved ones on the front lines. Do you realize how many of Ukraine young generation are dying everyday?? They need to end this war and compromise. Also people in the west are tired of funding a war that's just killing a bunch of young men and making a bunch of widows and fatherless children!! They need to come to terms and end this bs ASAP
Lunatic? So the other guy that crossed a border illegally, sends cruise missiles onto children's hospitals and maternity wards out of frustration of only gaining 47km of ground in Donbas in the past 3 years of his "2 months to Kyiv" SMO is totally not a lunatic...
I'm sorry I'm a little short, however, 1. Never say Putin will not stop the War. 2. The First thing you should always say is that we are looking for talks, we are looking for negotiations.
LEX ... It will be difficult to negotiate with POO.tin if we dont play Pretend ... Pretend POO.tin isnt a Mass Murdering Thug whose word has any worth whatsoever ... Pretend a Pschopath can Love anything ..LOL
i think a lot of you don't understand what type of personality regarding Slavic people we are, this is going to be a very difficult thing because by nature we tend to rather die for something then give it up we don't value conditions and deals, we stick to them because its the right thing to do but hate formality in general. and this guy Lex Fridman is a typical American child that doesn't really understand what type of people he is "dealing with" because he is not experiencing real life and conditions that people in real life do.
Botsky. Is that right? not the people and families that have been slaughtered unjustly in Ukraine? the most U.S peasants have to worry about is their saturated fat intake. 🤣

Lex we don't have the original audio in this clip. Any chance this can be fixed?
Zelinsky isnt a president since May when hes period had gone out and ever since hes a dictator. He doesnt want any new election to vote again.
The East and South region in Ukraine asked Putin for help and voted to be coming a part of Russia.
Nato is a war organisation that doesnt work for peace.
Trump doesnt support war and there for not Nato any more.
USA isnt that military strong anymore but Russia is the moust powerful military today.
Lex is nothing more than a Russian shill. He insists on using Russian, ignores the key points Zelensky raised, and is only chasing views. He’s sold himself out for his next interview with Putin. This guy is a complete joke.

20:09 Ha!🤣😂🤣 Still and ever the vaudeville comedian!
The amount of trolls in the comment section
A lot of russian bots here.
Just because people don't agree with funding the Ukraine war doesn't mean they are bots.
Yea crazy
Its sad
People that disagree = trolls.
The guy is delusional.....I think hes living in fairy land....
No, just reading his script.
You are insensitive to what this man is dealing with...a lesser man would be in an insane asylum by now. He's dealt with horrible atrocities against his countrymen and simply wants peace... Ukraine was ATTACKED and INVADED by Russia. Ukraine didn't start this fight, they're simply defending themselves and I can relate to that!
Sure Comrade.
@@gazpine you are delusional if you don't see the tyranny demonstrated by Russia!
you're delooloo
Slava Ukraini!
This comment section is clown🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
I think Lex stays awake at night hoping for his Chamberline moment of waving a piece of paper in the air while saying "Peace in our time"!
I really feel for Zelenskyy for having to negotiate with Trump. Trump has zero values or principles. He’s ignorant of the complexities of Putin’s desires and strategies. He’s purely transactional, reducing everything to a business deal measured by money. So many Ukrainians have fought their hearts out for freedom and autonomy. Zelenskyy has more character and integrity in his little finger than Trump ever had. Putin was bred KGB. He knows how to manipulate.
Good: Security Guarantee. In fact, I've given you a detailed checklist of issues that you should embrace to make the security, and set the tone for the rest of world as it pertains to how many weapons, and what types of weapons.
Sovereignty of nations Vs. the right of peoples to self-determination
The former. For example, its not OK for me to go to another country with a group of people buy some land and then say we want our land to belong to our originating country. Thats not how it works. Thats why i dony agree with israeli settlements in the west bank even though i generally agree for israels right to exist.
@@ThaDonJsuan Congratulations then, you just figured the world out I suppose.
@marceaucouve6427 ???
I don't want my American tax money going to Ukraine, saying that, God Bless Zalensky and all of Ukraine. Keep fighting!
Bet you didn’t have a problem with the trillions the Bush wars wasted on people who wouldn’t fight for themselves like the Ukrainians are.
It stays mainly in the us, at arms manofacturers
80%+ stays in US and pays for manufacturing and updating weapons while the older stockpile is going to Ukraine. This is win win
Clearly you didn't watch the interview or understand that we don't send money to Ukraine.
The US is the only one gaining on this war.
Thank you Lex for doing this. Please educate the people who are being fooled and lied to about what has been and is happening in Ukraine. Glory to the people and the heroes.
It won't be easy to do...like he said, if the leaders truly love their country they'll need to put aside their bitterness for each other and consider the consequences for not doing anything about it...Ottawa Canada
Great interview
How are they doing the translation so quickly and in realtime? Is it edited or?
AI
Good interview lex 👍
What a disappointment, I thought Lex surely is a smart guy? But he turned out to be a useful idiot.
American gas and oil is not cheaper than russian
I think he's too dumb to factor in shipping costs.
Russian gas (and Russian energy in general) has been the most expensive, self-harming endeavor by Europe in this century because it enabled autocracy in its biggest threat: Russia. Had they diversified energy (instead of closing down Nuclear and even coal), Putin would have been deterrent more effectively. The result of relying on Russian Energy is this: War is back on European soil.
@@RenzoTravelsTheEarthcleaner, who cares if 1.5-2x cost oh well
Obviously it’s gonna be cheaper now because they can’t sell it. And are being taken advantage of by India and China because of sanctions
It is 4 times more expensive. Ask Europeans and all those European factories that had to close.
He’s got issues…
Yes his country was attacked by Russia. You have issues between your ears. There is nothing there.
What humanitarian spirit is he talking about? I hope the podcast will not be used for propaganda to alter reality.

I admire lex for trying to get through to him but he is standing up trying to defend and protect the people that has lost everything to someone who thought he was a threat
Zelenskyy makes alot of sense .
Hahahahaha😂😂😂
Our proposal is that America steals Russian money and that they will receive it from us without any problems and then give it back to America for weapons. We are not asking for a gift.
I think the poor guy is not aware of what he is saying 😂
How does he make even any sense on this planet? 🤷🏻♂️🤔

Z is a little crook and should lose this war
no he's not and your an idiot
Lol a crook? You do realize, well I guess you don't, but that our very own Pentagon fails a 1 billion dollar audit every year for the past 6'ish or so years. Nearly 1 BILLION dollars are GONE!!!! No one bats an eye, Congress does nothing and you talk about crooks? Perhaps you should specify which crook guild you are referring to and why it's relevant. Ah yes, here's the copy paste for ya "The U.S. Department of Defense confirmed on Friday that the Pentagon failed its seventh consecutive audit and failed to give a full account for its $824 billion budget." YOU'RE SERIOUSLY WORRIED ABOUT Z BEING A CROOK? WTF BRO

And pay no attention to the little biolabs behind the curtain.
And you are a little troll. You should lose your keyboard.
ok comrad
Zelensky really sounds like a ridiculous person in this whole interview….his gov is known to be the most corrupt in the world
Yup. He's the most corrupt leader Ukraine has ever had.
He manages to say a whole lot of nothing after a long-winded reply. Was not expecting it to be so glaring.
Actually Russia is ranked the number one most corrupt country. Ukraine was number two, but under Zelensky it has made leaps and bounds in rooting it out. An argument can even be made that the corruption stemmed from Russian puppet politicians that were abound in Ukraine until recently.
@@trels203You’ll hear what your idiotic brain wants to. You have a ridiculous false narrative in your head that you’ll never break with.
Thats just cause your view of him is tainted by sino-russian propaganda. Both countries are paying billions of dollars to warp people like you. And unfortunately you will never get pulled out of it.
Did he ask about the Boris Johnson visit and why Zel withdrew from the peace-accord immediately following this?
The greatest salesman in the world!
The money we gave to this guy and his military basically telling the American people you have no say where the taxpayer money goes , I'm not watching this
Most of that money never leaves the USA and goes straight back into the economy...besides the usa caused all this by making the Ukraine give up their nukes on the promise of economic help and protection...
you have no say regardless of the war, you’re mad at the wrong guy
You not paying taxes aswell so why you should have something to say.
Yeah, don't watch anything you disagree with. Stay stupid.
@@fathergvdthats a Russian troll
what a WEF puppet throwing his own into the meat grinder....
Brainwashed by sino-russian propaganda. Or you're a bot.
It was very very insulting for Lex to keep telling Zelenskyy that he wants peace...AS IF...Zelenskyy does not. It is his country and people that have being shattered and ravaged.---he wants *peace* more than Lex is clearly capable of comprehending. It was insulting on another level.
Most of us expect that Trump is going to coerce/pressure Zelenskyy into agreeing to giving up some of his country FOR PEACE. Make Zelenskyy look bad if he doesn't agree...make him look like he is the one who doesn't care about peace!!! Many of us think that Trump is going to make sure that Putin gains something from this horrific war of greed and aggression.
Zelenskyy would have to lose something substantial AND THAT IS WRONG. That is probably trump's "way" for peace...... But as Zelenskyy wisely said... there are possibilities... yes, a whole range of possibilities, some good, some very bad.
I'm sure Zelenskyy knows well that there is a very good chance trump will work for Putin's benefit, and will pressure Zelenskyy to concede to some things Putin wants.
Notice that Zelenskyy keeps saying he *hopes* trump will be on Ukraine's *side*...translation...(the right side)...and he is not necessarily expecting that. Hope is the key word. Zelenskyy is obviously a very smart man!!!
Listen.. lex is not wrong. Sometimes you need to negotiate and make hard decisions to have peace. It's easy for zelensky to fight a war he is not fighting or any of his loved ones on the front lines. Do you realize how many of Ukraine young generation are dying everyday?? They need to end this war and compromise. Also people in the west are tired of funding a war that's just killing a bunch of young men and making a bunch of widows and fatherless children!! They need to come to terms and end this bs ASAP
Z doesn’t want peace he wants weapons, power and cash…

You should do a fashion episode with Z and Jolani.
Lex lost credibility on this one. He didn't ask this lunatic any tough questions.
What tough questions are there to ask you brainwashed muppet?
He's being berated for being a kremlin agent by most pro Ukraninans here, people really live in different realities.
Great point
Russian? Yes!
Lunatic? So the other guy that crossed a border illegally, sends cruise missiles onto children's hospitals and maternity wards out of frustration of only gaining 47km of ground in Donbas in the past 3 years of his "2 months to Kyiv" SMO is totally not a lunatic...
The irony listening to a person of "power " speaking about their tiny little circle how they forget about the other 9 billion of us who see and hear.
The irony is you.
@leoh2502 I know, see you on the battle ground dude. Cheers
I'm sorry I'm a little short, however, 1. Never say Putin will not stop the War. 2. The First thing you should always say is that we are looking for talks, we are looking for negotiations.
Zelensky explained him all the matter sufficiently. I hope that it woke up Lex from his dreaming
Russia NEEDS JESUS
LEX ... It will be difficult to negotiate with POO.tin if we dont play Pretend ... Pretend POO.tin isnt a Mass Murdering Thug whose word has any worth whatsoever ... Pretend a Pschopath can Love anything ..LOL
i think a lot of you don't understand what type of personality regarding Slavic people we are, this is going to be a very difficult thing because by nature we tend to rather die for something then give it up we don't value conditions and deals, we stick to them because its the right thing to do but hate formality in general. and this guy Lex Fridman is a typical American child that doesn't really understand what type of people he is "dealing with" because he is not experiencing real life and conditions that people in real life do.
What a weird spot to cut on.
