Thank you guys for great questions and ability to speak up to the global audience. We appreciate all the care you are showing Ukraine and Ukrainian people. ✊🇺🇦 For the context: I am English speaking Ukrainian in the red scarf. No, I am not American. I swear.
@@oOPrettywinxOo yeah, there were a good few comments on here saying something about “Americans doing interview” BS. Thank you for your support, my hopes are the same.
@@dverser that assumption could only come from an American (probably). My English is good too (it sounds weird when I say it myself, but I did study the language up to bachelor's degree level, so it's one of the few things I am confident in). Every single American I have met and talked to didn't believe me at first when I told them I never lived in the US or any other English-speaking country. It's so weird to me haha. I wish I could do more to end this war myself, but all I can do is donate & hope someone stops Putin soon...
@@oOPrettywinxOo hey, heads up! You are doing enough! Everyone is doing their best, the way they can in a place they are. So sending hugs to you as well. War is a tragedy of the world, regardless of the location.
@@np7148 I’be been working in the international environment for over 10 years now, so my accent has vanished over the years, and I spoke English daily while being in Ukraine :) I’m bilingual in Ukrainian and Russian, as well as I can understand Polish, Belarus and Czech quite well.
Kinda defeats the point if Asian Boss continues to mistranslates. Go look at their recent china video and look at how they mistranslated them which completely shifts the narrative.
@@Name-jw4sj They aren’t miss translating on purpose. If you read the replies in the other video you will see that they are short staffed and try to get things up as fast as they can. They themselves were happy with the viewers picking up the mistranslation and correcting it. Although I am defending them, they are still at fault and should always double check their work. But just know they aren’t doing this maliciously to change the narrative.
@@Name-jw4sj i hope you know there isn’t exact translations between languages such as Chinese. If we used more specific translations it would sound weird in English so they make it more different in exchange to understand it
too few samples, even the Russia guy with relatives from Donetsk did not mention the 2014 coup, ban on Russian language, or the civil war ongoing over 8 years which is probably why his relatives support the intervention viewers could not be expected to understand the conflict without such geopolitical context, sob stories could lead to no resolution true consensus would require convergence of input from millions, via Meldd
@@markusmeldre yea well we condemn countries like China for making Chinese "mandatory to learn" for ethnic minorities, yet Ukraine does it to ethnic Russians then burn protestors alive and we say Glory to Ukraine and sent weapons to kill more protestors/rebels for years now there is so much complexity here, like the Ukrainian closure of water supply to Crimea and the new oil reserves discovered in Ukrainian territory, which are all important to understanding the cause of this conflict, as well as eventual resolution Asian Boss needs to go beyond sob stories to create common understanding
@@rabbitsforyang8273 Yeah, and you should had mentioned then that 2014 was also a Russia's fault: first annexation of Crimea, and then provoking pro-Russian unrest in Odessa, Kharkiv, and Donbas. Btw, unrest in Kharkiv was calmed, and have you heard any reports of anti-Russian behaviors? I don't think so. While unrest in Donbas turned into a civil war by arrival of Girkin and his armed troops.The 2013 coup in Ukraine is a Ukranian business, why would Russia need to interfere? Maybe because Putin thought that he can command who should be in power in Ukraine?
@@rabbitsforyang8273 For real, there is so much context missing from the coverage of this conflict but people think interviews like this is "balanced". Suddenly people have bleeding hearts for the Ukrainians but they didn't have any sympathy for the Ukrainians living in Donbass who were getting bombed by their own government.13,000 people have died since 2014. The Ukrainian government said these are paid Russian seperatists. Those deaths include old women, little kids, and you can google the photos from the bombing, there are ordinary people who died on their way to get groceries. That's not even mentioning that this whole thing started because US funded to coup the elected government in 2014. The pro-US "Ukrainian" activists burned 31 anti-government protestors alive by trapping them in a building and setting it on fire. Where is the justice for all those have been murdered for 8 years?
"Putin is not Russia, and he is the worst representation that Russia could get" - this is a really ironic moment for a country's leadership, and a real unfortunate one.
He represents an ideal that ended 30 years ago, sadly there's grey, greedy Russians that live longer than 30... They still exist in vast numbers, old, opinionated and deluded... They would say, just like me!
@@bogdanplumb5007 nice to have a sensible comment, I agree, it is impossible for anyone born PRE iron curtain to understand or know how to deal with it. The last 30 years was an attempt to allow them freedom to adapt their gov't. Instead they cont'd while the youth had what they didn't. THe young generation grew with eyes of a free world, what they didn't realise was their leaders were licking their wounds from the past and they will never heal, not then, not now. The world moved on for the 70 years that the corrupt sapped what little opportunity was left in the people and they came out. And one has to say it, they were all supported by other greedy people around the world. There is no one race that is pure, we all have our poor, our corrupt and we have our righteous and civil serving people. Blame or finger pointing only perpetuates the crimes, a united people however, you are not. There must be countless people too ashamed to admit the past or the present and prefer to survive without their free speech, and their voices are cut.

Я родилась и всю жизнь живу в РФ. Я люблю свою страну и мне есть за что сказать ей спасибо. Я ходила в детский сад и школу бесплатно, я выучилась в лучшем ВУЗе страны бесплатно, хотя я не гений, сейчас я работаю не официально, но при этом я обращаюсь к врачу и прохожу обследования тоже абсолютно бесплатно. Конечно, в моей стране есть проблемы, но я не знаю стран где бы их не было, поэтому не надо делать выводы за всех.
"If my son's didn't want war, there wouldn't be any"... (edit. quick quiz) please use google or another tool to look up the parasite that wrote this beautiful statement. Typical!!
@Jim English The US should reflect upon it's own war crimes against innocent civilians during it's so-called "war on terror". Those deaths far exceed in number anything experienced in Ukraine.
This a great street interview from the citizens of both countries. Though, they might not be in their countries while the tension happened they are still aware of what is the real thing. It is commendable that they both acknowledged various news sources and still managed to establish a nonpartisan stance. I hope this video could spread to lessen the misinformations dispersed to the international citizens. Good job, Asian Boss!
@Paulo Sotto Mayor your really eating every word Putin feeds you?! Your also saying the United States of America started this?? Your effing crazy!! America doesnt start wars, they finish them or fail trying. If America wanted to start a war, there wouldn't be a war. The country would be wiped off the map!! They are not going to do that or they already would. Educate yourself on America's military capabilities that are public knowledge, its frightening! They could blow up the world in minutes! Not to mention classified new technology that we don't know about so STFU!
Foreigners even russians living in South Korea basically are pro-West and anti-Russia. If they were pro-Russia they won't choose South Korea to live which ins USA's puppet. I mean these russians in this video are not credible, because all their thought is pro-West and anti-Russia for years, absolutely not neutral. And they also easy being brainwashed by south koreans friends who are of course following US media and propaganda (South Korean media copy-paste US media). Asian Boss can go in China, right ? Go ask Russians living in China, it will be different.
@@contrelegouvernement Hi, I appreciate your reply for my comment. I am not sure if you are pertaining to my statement above but as far as I know they are chosen to participate because they are liable and involved, being the citizen of the country. In addition, there are many versions of truth: the truth for you, the truth for me, and the real truth. We should not validate nor invalidate their opinion as per they are speaking from their own point of view, like whay you might be doing when writing your comment. Lastly, all we have to do as concern citizen stay educated and hope for the best and may peace prevail. 🙂
Thank you for making those interviews, this is so precious and important. I'm also thrilled that you took my comment into consideration on making a video on this conflict, you guys are awesome.
The quality of content shown by Asian Boss shows us clearly the difference between working out of passion VS working just for status or plain cash. Not that these are unfair reasons, but, the undying commitment with the truth.. Is simply awe inspiring.
Если у вас(**Русских**) осталось хоть что-то человеческое, не нужно говорить что это *не ваша война.* Вы жители России и ответственность за развязную войну несёте коллективно и каждый лично. Ваша пассивная позиция согласия привела к тому что происходит в **Украине**. Перестаньте бояться и поймите что это ваш исторический долг - **показать свою позицию**. Ваш Президент это **ваше лицо**, с таким лицом **Вы **не когда не будете прощены всем **миром**. Мир вокруг вас изменился, и жить в изоляции это ваш выбор, если не проявите свою гражданскую позицию. **Слава Украине**, и жителем этой страны! Победа за правдой!
i never doubted the quality of content from Asian Boss. As a media worker myself, i noticed that the journalist speaks both Russian and Ukrainian, i'm just wondering would she secretly select the content before hand it over to Stephen since the language barrier exists?
if any of the interviewees are reading this, thank you for being so honest and sharing your thoughts. particularly to the russians who spoke so candidly about their disapproval and disgust of this war. may the ukrainian people know peace and safety soon. stay strong.
Расскажите у Вас есть сейчас отвращение к агрессии Израиля к Палестине сейчас? А была, когда было вторжение в Ирак, там около 1.5 миллиона погибших и развал в бывшем процветающей страны? А сейчас природные богатства качаются коллективным Западом. Вы говорите о стыде жителям напавших на Ирак стран?
5 civilians dead in South Russian city due to Ukrainian missile attack. 5 houses completely destroyed. Attack targeted civilians. Evacuations continue in nearby towns and hamlets,
меня бесят люди, говорящие, что русский народ должен отвечать за произошедшее на украине. тогда скажите мне, а какого хуя не обвиняют американский народ за нападение арабских стран? почему какие-то страны разделены на святых, а другие на никчёмных? а ведь ещё американцы топят за толерантность, но по отношению к русским, арабам и китайцам я её не вижу.
Amazing interview! I'm from Poland, we're closely working with Ukraine now, have over million of refugees already, helping however we can, and for the first time ever I'm actually proud of my country. We're donate money, food, toys, clothes etc give our own homes and find jobs for thise people and I'm so glad they can finde some peace and help in here. And I can confirm taht the confusion and amount of fake news is huge. Even here in Poland we're a target of lots of fake news and cyber attacks every day. Countries taht are not involved or far away from this conflict don't realize how insane this situation is, how much propaganda, chaosz fake news and fear there is. Honestly, I know everyone has their own opinions, but please listen first to the people who are actually involved and experience this and have credible sources and knowledge about the situation. We're already well aware and couscous about fake news, but it spreads around the world, to the places that often have no experience with it and it's very dangerous. So listen only to the reliable sources, don't spread misinformation, don't donate to some random organizations, don't post in social media random facts or videos, it's a live or death situation for those people, so have some respect.
You are doing very good job Poland. And thankyou very much for helping Indian students and other nationals during this tough time. We are very grateful to you Poland 🙏 lots of love from India 🇮🇳❤️
@@CK_channell I've heard about Indian students escaping through Poland 🙌 so glad they managed to do that, can't imagine how stressful it must have been.
@@Aloszka7 yeah... they are evacuating through Poland, Romania, Hungary, Slovakia. We are very grateful for your support and help🙏 here in India, student's parents are very scared, they are crying and praying for safety of their children. We are here in India also praying for Ukrainians. Hope so this war will end soon🙏🥺🥺 War is not the solution of any problem.
@@CK_channell We hope so too 🙌 War is never a solution. I hope everyone return home safe. It's a very difficult situation, and I know Poland isn't perfect and there might be some incidents, but considering that all this help is done by volunteers, private businesses, organizations and individuals is incredible. Our government haven't done anything, it's all organized by citizens, so it's pretty incredible how it all worked out.
@@Aloszka7 we understand this that no country is perfect... India is not perfect too. So don't worry dear we are not misunderstanding you and we love Poland, polish people, polish culture and all. There is a policy that India follows- Vasudhaiva kutumbkam which means this whole earth is our home. Infact We all are one.😊
Please don't feel bad, Asian Boss, for not being in the countries yourselves. Protect your own safety, because you can't work unless you are safe and healthy. This was more than enough!
South korea itself get into hot water because it declared itself member of non-bloc countries association. But acted as 1st/western bloc. And asian boss' based in S. Korea
Hello! You can watch the reports of an American journalist, his name is Patrick Lancaster. For example, his video on youtube dated June 26, 2022: First Look Into Russian Controlled Kharkiv Region Ukraine (Special Report) - «Как обстоят дела в контролируемой Россией Харьковской области Украины (специальный репортаж)». There he interviews people who are on the territory of Ukraine, Kharkiv region. Approximately, as in this video, under which I am writing a comment. There is also a very good BBC report from 2014 - года «Why do some Ukrainians want to be part of Russia? BBC News» - interviews with people living in Ukraine near the border with Russia.
@@ekate_rina_rina Well, I'm literally a Ukrainian from this region. Absolute majority does not want to have any deal with russia. Only some crazy ass enjoyers of USSR past, it's a very marginalized group of people which btw russia always using in their media to justify the occupation.
It is true that ordinary Russians are being victimized and Ukrainians are being murdered. This is such a painful situation for all of us on the planet where peace is yearned for by most of us. When this is over I wish for stability and prosperity for everyone,
@Sven Andersson I think the large majority of people are able to separate between government and the people, and are also able to separate between the part of the population who support the government and the part of the population that doesn't. So yeah, OBVIOUSLY there are SOME normal everyday Russian people who have something to do with the invasion. Don't be stupid. BUT, there are OTHERS who don't. Furthermore, just because there are SOME who support their government invading Ukraine, doesn't mean that they are bad people or that the deserve to have their life savings ruined. The majority of Russians who support the war are still good people, and are victims of their government's decision, even if they support that decision. God, I despise emotional people like you who intentionally ask baiting questions designed to start hateful arguments. Pipe down.
@Sven Andersson Sven, when faced with Siberia or what little is left on offer, one can understand. I speak of modern Siberia too. There's still the demographic of MIA grey pre iron curtain that's at his mercy on welfare. It's an ugly old regime and it's time to take it's head off... Talking and dealing with it just proved to be a fatal error UA is wearing now.
We love how year by year haters have to "declare" Karl Marx dead ... (and Soviet, Socialism, Communism as well) As long as capitalism is still around ... as long as there is exploitation of the labour class ... Marxist will remain relevant ... Downfall of capitalism ... rich remain richer and poor even poorer ! You see this during every economic crisis, Marx's books see higher sales. "... the end of goal of communist is socialist ..." Karl Marx World of the Workers, Unite ! Long Live Spiritual of Marxism !
@@lucasharvey8990 what the difference whether good or bad people is trying to help? Would you care about his/her background? So here the only way for Ukraine to survive - is to make enemy's life as harder as possible.

That's one of the reasons mass folks don't want to see a negotiation. At the end of the negotiation the leaders on both side will shake hands and walk away
@@manofsesame3024 Not really, many times if they see its a useless war and theirs sons are dying for no reason at all they'll ask for negotiations. At the end of the day people will want to live a normal life instead of a life filled with bloodshed especially for a war they see it doesn't matter anymore.
The war will end. But I don't think Zelensky will shake Putin's hand. He will never forgive Putin for all the destruction in Ukraine, and all the deaths of the Ukranians, and also of the Russian young men who didn't want to fight in a war. Zelensky said that Putin used the young Russian soldiers like a train conductor uses wood pieces, throwing them into the fire for his machine. And Putin will never shake the hand of the heroic Ukranian president who stayed with his people and humiliated Putin's military and Putin's ego.
@@taligordin-kaviani1569 Zelensky is the last one to talk about heroism when he's a zionist dog. I'm not with Putin either he shall end up in hellfire where he belongs.
when you attack in modern warfare you need 7:1 ratio to win. 500k Germans in WW2 attacked Kyev and lost 100k man to capture it. Russia has 300k manpower on an nation with 48M people whos now climate and weather make it hard for the tanks to move because of the mud. Ukraine will win this, especially if they get airplanes, if they get them now they gonna get back all possible including Crimea. Its amazing how Russia is doing bad, but this shows that the command is afraid to tell Putin whats in the Real Time, noone gives bad news to dictators. Its sad that someone gave Putin a chance to have his finger around nuclear button to make the world in danger, includin me and you gentleman, nuclear war its just the end of the planet.
@@hannesRSA Women and children are. man cant leave borders. In a month u gonna have like 20M, okay lets just say 10M man inside Ukraine, even if Russia gets Kyiev, they cant hold and control it, cus clearly gerila warfare and revolts will happen. Russia is smart to avoid cities, but sooner or later they need to enter, Putin cant withdraw. Every day death comes and people want revange, horrible crimes will happen on both sides, but its a matter since Ukraine is defending iteslf, by God and by law they gonna be forgiven.
You guys should make a new channel called European Boss, that way you can cover news beyond Asia and maybe even making interviews in countries like Ukraine.
I am a so called "Spätaussiedler". It means that my ancestors did come from Germany to imperial russia to work for Katherina the great and stayed there till the late 20th century. I came to germany in 1998. We speak russian and we cook russian because we got a lot of culture from there in our family. Now in germany people does start to hate me for my roots. They discriminate me because for the government and for the people Putin equals all russian ethnicities. That is insane and sad. But what makes me sad more as a half slavic man is, that no matter what slavic country that originated from the rus, no matter if russia, poland or Ukraine, the leaders there do allow propaganda against the other slavic ethnicities. I refuse to hate polish or Ukraine people because some government tells me. And i hope people from poland and Ukraine also refuse to hate us. We are slavic brothers and sisters. We should be one big family...

well to me... it all goes down to one thing..it breaks my heart how innocent lives suffered the most here. My prayers that peacefulness may reign in these countries🙏
The half Russian half Ukrainian guy has it the worst because he probably doesn't know how he should feel about all of this making it very mentally frustrating.
To be honest as a none Russia/Ukrainian or a Westerner, I can see both sides being valid including his Ukraine and Russia relatives who I am sure have their own reasons why they agree with disagree but none of em asked for it.
He shouldn't be feeling. Instead he should be thinking. One tyrant 3,000 miles away is no worse nor better than 3,000 tyrants 1 mile away. Plenty of people alive today still remember when they were a single country too. People blew 9/11 out of proportion. They blew covid out of proportion. They're doing the same here. The world has become overly emotional children. The bulk of their problems and yours come from your feelings and inability to grow up.
Still, there surroundings might have affected them since South Korea is the US' ally, imagine if they justified the war, what would happen to them or the way their colleagues look at them in SK, Asian Boss might get different opinions from Russians in China.
I think that the ones who would speak up would be the ones that share the similar view as the commonly accepted view. Still, i am sure everyone wants a peaceful outcome, thats for sure
@@ancienttime6307 Many of S Korean are against the war and criticize Putin. Some of them understand Putin's concern. Nothing will happen even though you are for Putin. S Korea is a democracy country.
Thanks for all interviewees for their words and courage. Respect and love to Asianboss team for their sincere effort to capture voices from real people
Asian Boss thank you for doing this interview. It's always important to hear views from both sides, not from experts or politicians, but from people who are affected by this war. Like one of the interviewee mentioned, anything Russian will be sanctioned. I'm from NYC, there are many Russia and Ukrainian businesses here. I also have Ukrainian and Russia friends but there's no animosity between them. One of my Jewish Russian friend owns a store and people have avoided buying from them despite his family fleeing Russia in the 70s. I understand that people are angry and want to blame someone, but it's definitely wrong to ostracize Russians who have nothing to do with the war. We still haven't learned from history. This definitely feels like what happened to Japanese Americans back in WWII.

На данный момент большинство обычных русских не чувствует влияние санкций за исключением того, что есть рост цен из-за курса валют, но пока он не критичен. За границей, конечно, это иначе. Как минимум люди не могут пользоваться своими банковскими картами, не могут как раньше летать домой и обратно. Зачастую люди, которые живут за границей владеют бизнесом связанным с РФ и, конечно, они чувствуют сложности в связи с санкциями.
@@superVeronichka Это неправда, и я не знаю, почему вы пишете подобные вещи. Мне кажется, вы живете не в Москве и поэтому не осознаете всего масштаба проблем. Москва первой почувствовала на себе все это, потому что большая часть зарубежных компаний базируется здесь. Но у меня есть несколько друзей, которые потеряли рабочие места или финансирование, потому что это были филиалы иностранных компаний. Моя мама работает в фирме, большей частью функционирующей на импорте и экспорте, и если вы считаете, что рост курса валют некритичен, то вы очень сильно заблуждаетесь. Моя подруга нуждается в зарубежных лекарствах и периодическом обследовании, которое она теперь не может получить, потому что больше эти лекарства в страну не поставляют, и данные аппараты в России не производятся. Некоторые предприятия уже перестают работать, потому что нет сырья или запчастей для оборудования. И это только то, что я знаю от близких мне людей, а какое количество всего я еще не вижу - большой вопрос. Экономические санкции точно так же убивают людей, просто это происходит медленнее и не так явно. Если это вы считаете "большинство обычных русских не чувствует влияние санкций", то мне не о чем с вами говорить.
If those Russians are in South Korea, an American colony, obviously they must say they are against the war otherwise they will be criticized by the people that hosted them
Як українка, я не можу бачити цих російських людей, які кажуть, що в цій війні можна вийти ОБОМ країнам переможцями. Найтупіше що можна було сказати. Після майже шести місяців цього жаху, їм аби попоїсти в МакДональдсі і виставити себе такими самими жертвами. Вся їх історія була вкрадена, всі досягнення, які вони «заслужили» були лише перекрученими, переробленими речами з заходу і навіть зараз вони «втомилися» від засудження. Вони кажуть, що люди не винні, поки ці ж самі люди ДОБРОВОЛЬНО пішли на наші землі, щоб розкрасти дома та пожитки, які народ зберігав у своїх домах у Бучі та Гостомелі. Вони ґвалтували жінок і вбивали дітей. І після цього вони жертви?

Russian people should go on the streets fighting and only ukrainines dying and fight! From Poland it is so clear to see - we fighted too for our freedom and most of Russian are ok with gouvernemebt and how oppositions is killed, and how it works for 20 years for ex. Where are mass protest? Nowhere

The girl in the interview said that you can get to the jail for up to 20 years for just calling this hell with a word staring with W. And that’s just a top of the iceberg.
@@dnb8835 Russian people protest every day. Children, adults, even older people who saw war of 1939-1945 with their own eyes. Thousands of people get arrested every time. But unfortunately protests in our country don’t work despite the fact we have ‘democratic regime’. Our government makes new laws against us each day like you can get arrested just for saying “war” instead of “special operation”, we can’t donate to people in Ukraine because it is concidered “state treason”, 15 years in prison for spreading “fake” information about everything that’s happening. But who decides which info is true and which is fake? Of course our government. It is harder to breath for ordinary Russian people, who don’t even want this war. We believe in better and try to do everything we can, despite the government who tries to silent our voices 🙏🇺🇦
The Russian guy who quoted his Ukrainian friend.... "We did not start this ..... We cannot end this .... Only the leaders can end this..." This is the summary of this tragic situation. For political goals, the common man suffers. Prayers for the common people of Russia & Ukraine, whether in their country or out 🙏 Thank you Asian Boss for another fantastic report. God Bless the whole team with good health & mind to keep us on the rational unbiased road always 🙏
Russian people should do the same as Poles who fighted for freedom - protest and fighting. Being silent it is like support goubevrmbet who kill children, elders, adults. Where are mass protest! ? We see mass queues for McDonald closing shops while so close children elders Adults civils dying watching their country and historical places , infrastructure was destroyed
Slavic culture is beautiful. Russians and Ukrainians shouldn't be at war. My heart and condolences go out to any Ukrainian or Russian that are suffering the burden and tragedy of this conflict, including those that made a risky, yet selfless maneuver to stand up against the mad man Putin. Putin is the stain and the worst representation of Russia, its people, culture, and identity. I hope this war will end soon so that the sun will rise on a free, safe, and prosperous Ukraine and a free, democratic, safe, honest, and prosperous Russia - never again infested with corrupt, pompous, oppressive, power-hungry, bloodthirsty, war-mongering, and fear-mongering despots.

Russians are not Slavic but mix 180+, mostly non-Slavic ethnicities from all over the Eurasian Moscow colonies, and yes, these non-Slavic Russians speak a Slavic-like language, frequently somehow. If you look at Russian KIA(killed in action) at war in Ukraine, they are primarily Russian Mongols like Kalmyk and Buriats; Russian Turks like Tatar, Chuvash, Bashkir, Nogay, Yakut, etc.; Russian Finno-Ugric like Mary, Mordva, Udmurt, Karelian, Erzia, Moksha, Sobyane, etc.; Russians Caucasians like Ingush, Chechens, Avar, Dargin, Lak, Lezgian and etc.; Russians from far North-East Asia like Chukcha, Nivkh, Koryak, Evenk, etc.; plus more than 60 000 Russian mercenaries pulled from all over the world like China, India, Nepal, Shri Lanka, Siera Leone, Yemen, Somalia, Cuba, Venezuela, Nicaragua, Syria, Livia, CAR, Tajikistan, etc.

I don't agree with war. but I see a lot of Korean policeman in the background and I'm wondering if this interview is taking from an anti war protest. if so I think the Asian Boss should point it out at the begining of the video that it is not a street interview they normally do.
they did tho, at the beginning... do you expect them to stand on the street and ask everybody passing by if theyre from the ukraine or russia? a demo or protest is a logical place to find people to interview. both sides tend to show up, given they interviewed russians with differing opinions/news sources.
@@oreides No they didn't. They should say so if they truely interviewed people from a protest and let the viewers decide whether the interview is biased compare to a street interview.
To the Russians that are being victimized or feeling isolated I stand with you... Stay strong! the government policies are not the citizens policies. It is so sad to see abroad Ukrainians speaking about their relatives or family members still in Ukraine. Tragic to know that this is all due to a battle of ideologies
it's possible some or even many people still in ukraine refuse to leave... leaving your homeland due to war is never easy, even in the direst of situations.
it is so funny that people can even compare between Russia sanction and the war in Ukraine . Russian wont die if they cant eat McDonald but Ukraine people are dying from bullets and bomb.
Chinese People are gonna feel the same effect IF the Chinese Government pulls a similar stunt like what Putin did to Ukraine regarding the invasion. As a Chinese American, even I feel that it may also affect me, even if I am not a Chinese Citizen. But I can sympathize with many Russian Nationals who feel this way, even to Russian Americans as well.

Здравствуйте,я могу говорить по-китайски как в Германии так и в Италии.Большинство наших СМИ и тайваньских репортажей подчеркивает,что русский Путин выступал против вступления Украины в НАТО из-за энергии и земли,поэтому он вторгся в Украину,что редко упоминается.Нарушение и притеснение этнических Русские на Донбассе. Они относятся к России как к двустороннему стандарту. Кроме того,молодым россиянам легко промывают мозги западные СМИ,поддерживают так называемую демократию и свободу,и игнорируют факт войны.Ошибки обеих сторон.Президент Украины думал,что с помощью США и НАТО ,они разгромят Россию.Политики не будут считать жизнь и смерть простых людей. Первоначально завершение Beixi Line 2 имело много преимуществ для Германии, но это также то, чего не хотят видеть Соединенные Штаты. Так спровоцируйте Украину на провокацию России, что в итоге приведет к войне. В итоге в Интернете почти не упоминалось о США. Просто продолжайте обвинять Россию.

Thank you so much, Asian Boss, for this very interesting exchange of points of view. Maybe diplomacy seems too far now but I keep hoping in a diplomatic solution as soon as possible, otherwise things might get out of hand.
🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯 and now what? It is no out of hand?our neigbour country dies, children, adults, elders whole cities, businesses, infrastructure is destroyed ! I would do the same fight! Now in Poland we help as much we can. In Russia society is worry about Adidas and McDonald and their own money 🤯 where are mass protest like in communist time in Poland? If you are some you agree to what your government do
"Things might get out of hand"? You have more than TWO MILLION refugees already, thousands of casualties, russians shelling cities and hospitals, what do you call that, a little bit out of hand? Not fully out of hand?
@@ThaMobstarr cool, I missed that somehow. That said, there’s probably not much risk for any Russians voicing their opinions either way here. South Korea is a free country, and it’s unlikely the Russian government is going to try to find some random Russians in South Korea. Putin’s too busy invading Ukraine and bombing hospitals.
You interviewed people from both sides, which is nice, but they all shared the same opinion and ideology. It would be more interesting to hear what people who disagree with this opinion have to say. And not only Russians, there are also people in Ukraine who will disagree with what have been said in this interview.
Hello! You can watch the reports of an American journalist, his name is Patrick Lancaster. For example, his video on youtube dated June 26, 2022: First Look Into Russian Controlled Kharkiv Region Ukraine (Special Report) - «Как обстоят дела в контролируемой Россией Харьковской области Украины (специальный репортаж)». There he interviews people who are on the territory of Ukraine, Kharkiv region. Also neutral, as in this video, under which I am writing a comment. There is also a very good BBC report from 2014 - года «Why do some Ukrainians want to be part of Russia? BBC News» - interviews with people living in Ukraine near the border with Russia. View from both sides of the conflict.
Its interesting that most of ukrainian people speaks russian. I know both russian and english. And i can say that translation is not so understandable for english speakin people. I mean that translation is correct but the meaning of phrases is not so correct. Video is good. It was interesting to hear a regular people opinion. (and i am russian)
To be honest if you're interviewing people at a demonstration you are not gonna get representitive opinions from these people. They are all saying the same with other words.
@@irodeker can you tell me who is surrounded Donbas? Who shot Malaysian airplane with innocent people on Ukraine? You’re just a kreml propaganda, don’t even try to discuss about something on Ukraine, shut your mouth
Glad to see there are some comprehensive discussion rather than a unilateral condemnation. "It's a substantial geopolitical issue in which Ukraine got trapped" 4:21, very well said.
Its not geopolitical, study it a bit and you will see. Baltic states are already in NATO, they dont need Ukraine if they want to aim at Russia. Putin even made it clear that hes up to the Czar times, that means Alaska should be back to Russia too. Putin needs a war, thats how he got in power. Study why Jelcin made from the shades Putin president, study the first Chechnya war and the ''terrorist'' attack in Moscow, whom the muslims are blamed not FSB. I spended so much thous days about this topic cus I have friends in Russia as well in Ukraine, and Im from Bosnia and Herzegovina who had war 30 years ago. At the bitter end, Moscow today is not bombed, its Ukraine by Russias led Putin, he has nukes, only Russians can stop him but since they support him and he is a de facto dictator, hardly this gonna end so soon. Since this, everyone wants join NATO and EU, its not that they are expanding as everyone wants to get away from Moscow, just as it was during the collapse of the Warshaw pact. GDP or Russia is almost like the state of Texas, Bangladesh has more population than Russia, Russia is the biggest country in the world and had border wars with every country including China many times. Its not about NATO, what u people think ? That nuking a capital city makes it a target no. Putin could buy elections in Ukraine in 2014, but the western pact gave more money, Ukraine never had any fair elections, same as Russia and Belaruss. But Ukraine gave lgbt rights, women where seen on presidental elections.
@@Jopa955 this is a geopolitical issue. You are confusing geopolitics with war. Putin doesn't fear war with NATO. Russia NATO war will never happen because of the nukes. Putin, being the one in power, doesn't want western influence in politics of Russia(or of its neighbour countries). While Russia GDP might be low, they have huge resources. Its interesting to see how Putin will handle the sanctions. Iran did fairly well, Russia is in much better position than Iran was. Will this mark the end of Russia as a threat to the western interests or will it grow bigger, we'll have to wait and see. If Putin could somehow unite Russia, India and China using this conflict, it will create a new age in world order for better or worse. Every single country in this conflict have made terrible decisions so far escalating it more and more. Ukrainian citizens are the biggest losers in this war with almost nothing to gain. EU countries(Germany and Italy specially) will lose a lot too. US and China are the clear winners.
@@GTX311 The point really is… Russia did not invade Ukraine… Putin‘s army invaded Ukraine. During World War II the Japanese imperial army invaded China… Not Japanese citizens. It will work too it’s the Nazis that were held responsible for atrocities and Germany paid the price. I sincerely hope history treats this is Putin‘s war and no Russian aggression against their brothers. Even Russians who support the war heaven fed a narrative, as you can clearly see from this video that makes it hard not to support it.
This interview asked good questions as always. It is sad to see both side of people did not agree with the war but the war still happened. But it also showed how ordinary people are blind to what was happening in the past and what their politicians have done. From the answers of Ukrainian s it is clear that this war is inevitable. It is really a tragedy.
That is an odd conclusion to come to based on any of the answers of both Russian & Ukrainians interviewed. The exact opposite is true, that this war was indeed avoidable and not inevitable. Perhaps that is what you meant and it's a mistranslation because no other conclusion is possible.

These are ex pats though. The Russians in particular are living outside of the influence of Russian propaganda so will have a different outlooks from Russians living in Russia.
To admit that the information your given could be wrong and that a meaningfull discussion could End this war... I respect you russians a Lot, especially if you share that sentiment. I hope peace can someday be enjoyed by everyone.
one man? the authorities of Ukraine and the United States are to blame! the Minsk agreements were not fulfilled and continued to kill people in the Donbass
1:58 You have cut a part without subtitles, where he's saying "In order to protect the citizens of the DPR and LPR" Why? Even TH-cam subs are showing that in translation. Asian boss - are trying to hide that or what? Because with hiding this fact about DPR and LNR, Russian goverment position will be much more - pointless...
already many ordinary Russians are facing difficulties due to current happening, its not surprising that most interviewed said similar things. Would have been great if opinions of other side was also included. Korea itself has probably the highest experience of dealing and balancing relationship with world powers.
I'm sorry, but this statement that "people are suffering on both sides" is kinda offending for me to hear. one thing that your money isn't avaliable for you to freely use it and completely other thing is when you get a missile in your appartment/house. these two things are absolutely incomparable. if you think that Ukrainians don't have trouble with money these days, you're wrong. A LOT of people have lost their jobs due to this war, and because of the battles in southern and eastern regions of Ukraine (which means there's no way to transport foods and stuff from that regions to other) the prices in stores skyrocketed. Salesman from ocupated territories are forbidden to sell their products in Kyjiw or anywhere else so they MUST throw away the goods they have planted and harvested... I totally understand that many Russians really don't support this barbarism, but there are also people (what frightens me the most - there are women among them), who are being supportive of the situation and even encourage Russian soldiers (their husbands, brothers, sons etc) to kill and rape women/NEWBORN children and even men.... I just hope this nightmare ends as quickly and as less painful as possible.....
Well, they need to show that the Russians are against Putin, so they take the very 2% of the liberal opposition in Russia that were against Putin before. This is a search for a solution already knowing the answer.
I know a lot of Russian expats in my country, and in my experience their views tend to differ pretty drastically from Russians in Russia. It must be different in Korea because most of these people gave some very balanced and well thought out opinions. Great content Asian Boss, I subscribed!
This was caused by NATO expansion, the existence of Neo Nazis and the killing of ethnic Russians in Donetsk and Lugansk is just a small factor compared to the threat of Ukraine becoming NATO for Russia.
All pathetic excuses. Invading one of the largest countries in the world, completely destroying it and massacring it's population can never be justified, no matter how big a threat NATO expansion is. Besides, Ukraine isn't even a part of NATO.
@@OliCM3 @Oliver Craner It is not one of the largest countries on the world. 1. Ukraine was massacring ethnic Russians within Ukraine for 8 years, search it up. 2. Russia is not massacring it's population, that's western propaganda. There are so many holes in the western narrative that you can pick apart with some critical thinking 3. No one is saying it's justified, it's horrible, but we must all understand that it was provoked by NATO expansion to Russia's doorsteps. Russia is reacting exactly how USA reacted during the Cuban missile crisis. It is undeniable that this is caused by the threat of NATO expansion, which was created against Russia... 4. Joining NATO is written into Ukraine's constitution, so it is inevitable that it will continue trying to join and maybe join NATO. This is a big nono for Russia, understandably due to national security issues. The invasion is not right, but there is a reason behind it, and it all points towards NATO expansion and American interference in foreign affairs
@@builtbyenvyx 1. Such a tiny proportion, totally insignificant. Besides, how does invading the whole Country help? 2. It's not Western propaganda, its literally all coverage other than Russian state media. 3. Utter rubbish. How does Countries joining NATO make invading Ukraine the answer? 4. The very reason Ukraine and other Countries want to join NATO is because of Russian aggression. All Putin has done is burn more bridges and increase the threat against Russia. Are you Russian? Do you think Russians are safer with Ukraine being invaded? Do you really think all the footage of mass graves, demolished towns, countless accounts from civilians, intercepted Russian radio conversations are all fake? With all the lies Putin has told, all the people who end up dead or arrested who oppose him, do you really believe what he's telling Russia?
Yes he invaded Ukraine to block nato expansion and now Finland and Sweden want to join nato, and what will be Ukraine after the war will get closer anyway to the west. Genius move.
Almost everyone in this video had such well thought out answers and acknowledged the nuances of all this. Its amazing to see people be so well thought out about all this.
No, there are no nuances. Russia has become a facist totalitarian terrorist state straight from Orwell's book. It could not stand having democratic Ukraine as a neighbour, so it decided to kill its neighbour.

not to judge but wouldnt the opinions be skewed when everyone you interviewed was at some rally for Ukraine? Seems like youd get only anti-putin russians and obviously pro-west Ukrainians
You got a point but I bet it would be hard to find Ukrainians that aren't pro west given that one of them is helping the Ukrainians in all sorts of ways and the other shoots them through the head.
I loved the Stop War sign someone had in the background. I feel so sorry for everyone in this war, especially those being oppressed and killed. The Russian people are not to blame for this - its the Russian authorities. I pray for peace for all, this war to end asap and for Ukraine to be left to rule herself once more
I agree but don't forget that still most of the Russian people do support the war and stand behind Putin, the only Russians who are victims are those who are against the war.
About Putin lovers. Dont worry about sanctions, culture and living standard, while your leader conduct a special military operation in Ukraine, civilized world is conducting a special economical operation. Nothing to worry, is just a small operation, nobody is killed or dies, no buildings or factories are bombed, no occupation or war ... No need to live in shelters and have access to most trusted information about successful military operation (some bad peoples around the world it call - war, invasion, occupation, genocide, ...).
I'm from Russia. To be honest I haven't seen or heard any person here who supports Putin's invasion. Probably the only people who do, are those from self-proclaimed republics in Ukraine. I'm deeply sorry and my heart is bleeding for people of Ukraine. 💔
Russia and the Russian people gave birth to this misunderstanding called Putin. When they were able to kill people in other countries with impunity, they were fine with it! Now they are crying that they have no money, but no one is shooting and killing them in the streets. Should they tolerate it, or should only Ukrainians suffer? If they have no money, they'd better start working on their own country, instead of destroying other peoples. Believe me, the Russians would not feel sorry for you.
@@1988kcmo the thing is the west also have their own propaganda, neither side are telling the whole story to their respective citizens. both withheld informations or straightup lied to their teeth about somethings so in order to truly understand how people think about this issue we need viewpoints from people under western influence and also under the eastern bloc influence. the truth is always somewhere in the middle when it comes to this kind of thing
@@1988kcmo the fact that western media seems to gloss over the fact that NATO countries does indeed have to house US weapons and if (honestly its a matter of when) Ukraine joined the NATO then it will host US weapons directly near the borders of Russia. the borders between Russia and Ukraine is strategically hard to defend and having NATO weaponry placed there would absolutely place Russia in a very unfavorable situations. It doesn't justify the horrible atrocities Russia committed against the Ukrainians but can you be surprised when a man went insane when he literally live his life waking up and sleeping with a gun pointed into his head all the time?

I wonder whether these guys have learned what USA have done to Cuba from "Cuba Missile Crisis" which happend more than 50 years ago. The war will do harm to both sides, but the war is also the only way to solve the conflict when no one wants to listen to each other.
It's time for people to cancel politicians and vote for the kind of policy that we want and how we want our tax money to be spent. I'm sure if both Russians and Ukraine people get to vote there won't be this war.
@@bsbdptsd Yes I know, but that's the direction the world should take. No more corruption on a government level since people will be their own government. No more big companies controlling the market. Could you imagine?
That's exactly the point. Russia isn't a democracy. We cannot trust a government that isn't democratic. At all. And sometimes we can't even trust the people living in a undemocratic regime simply because they could've been brainwashed without even knowing
Vote ? It doesn't work that way in Russia. We have a corrupt government . As stated in the video, if you have something against the government, you can go to jail for 15 years. Like Navalny, the main Russian oppositionist
@@ankushds7018 Yes, what I mean is, there should be no more government. The people will become their own government, public servant could draft out policy but it would have to be us who approve them.

too few samples, even the Russia guy with relatives from Donetsk did not mention the 2014 coup, ban on Russian language, or the civil war ongoing over 8 years which is probably why his relatives support the intervention

@@rabbitsforyang8273 Yeah, and you should had mentioned then that 2014 was also a Russia's fault: first annexation of Crimea, and then provoking pro-Russian unrest in Odessa, Kharkiv, and Donbas.

While unrest in Donbas turned into a civil war by arrival of Girkin and his armed troops.The 2013 coup in Ukraine is a Ukranian business, why would Russia need to interfere? Maybe because Putin thought that he can command who should be in power in Ukraine?
@@rabbitsforyang8273 For real, there is so much context missing from the coverage of this conflict but people think interviews like this is "balanced". Suddenly people have bleeding hearts for the Ukrainians but they didn't have any sympathy for the Ukrainians living in Donbass who were getting bombed by their own government.13,000 people have died since 2014. The Ukrainian government said these are paid Russian seperatists. Those deaths include old women, little kids, and you can google the photos from the bombing, there are ordinary people who died on their way to get groceries. That's not even mentioning that this whole thing started because US funded to coup the elected government in 2014. The pro-US "Ukrainian" activists burned 31 anti-government protestors alive by trapping them in a building and setting it on fire. Where is the justice for all those have been murdered for 8 years?

This a great street interview from the citizens of both countries. Though, they might not be in their countries while the tension happened they are still aware of what is the real thing. It is commendable that they both acknowledged various news sources and still managed to establish a nonpartisan stance. I hope this video could spread to lessen the misinformations dispersed to the international citizens. Good job, Asian Boss!
Russia should take over racist Ukraine and Nato slave
@Paulo Sotto Mayor your really eating every word Putin feeds you?! Your also saying the United States of America started this?? Your effing crazy!! America doesnt start wars, they finish them or fail trying. If America wanted to start a war, there wouldn't be a war. The country would be wiped off the map!! They are not going to do that or they already would. Educate yourself on America's military capabilities that are public knowledge, its frightening! They could blow up the world in minutes! Not to mention classified new technology that we don't know about so STFU!
Foreigners even russians living in South Korea basically are pro-West and anti-Russia. If they were pro-Russia they won't choose South Korea to live which ins USA's puppet. I mean these russians in this video are not credible, because all their thought is pro-West and anti-Russia for years, absolutely not neutral. And they also easy being brainwashed by south koreans friends who are of course following US media and propaganda (South Korean media copy-paste US media). Asian Boss can go in China, right ? Go ask Russians living in China, it will be different.
@@contrelegouvernement Hi, I appreciate your reply for my comment. I am not sure if you are pertaining to my statement above but as far as I know they are chosen to participate because they are liable and involved, being the citizen of the country. In addition, there are many versions of truth: the truth for you, the truth for me, and the real truth. We should not validate nor invalidate their opinion as per they are speaking from their own point of view, like whay you might be doing when writing your comment. Lastly, all we have to do as concern citizen stay educated and hope for the best and may peace prevail. 🙂
Great reply both to Paolo as to the video. Respect
2:18 he was my Russian teacher several years ago. Good to see him still living here in South Korea.
He's a good teacher may be. But doesn't understand anything in political situation between Russia and Ukraine
Honestly, he doesn't look like a teacher. Maybe that's a person who looks like him?
Thank you for making those interviews, this is so precious and important. I'm also thrilled that you took my comment into consideration on making a video on this conflict, you guys are awesome.
The quality of content shown by Asian Boss shows us clearly the difference between working out of passion VS working just for status or plain cash.
Not that these are unfair reasons, but, the undying commitment with the truth.. Is simply awe inspiring.

Если у вас(**Русских**) осталось хоть что-то человеческое, не нужно говорить что это *не ваша война.* Вы жители России и ответственность за развязную войну несёте коллективно и каждый лично. Ваша пассивная позиция согласия привела к тому что происходит в **Украине**. Перестаньте бояться и поймите что это ваш исторический долг - **показать свою позицию**. Ваш Президент это **ваше лицо**, с таким лицом **Вы **не когда не будете прощены всем **миром**. Мир вокруг вас изменился, и жить в изоляции это ваш выбор, если не проявите свою гражданскую позицию.
**Слава Украине**, и жителем этой страны! Победа за правдой!
i never doubted the quality of content from Asian Boss. As a media worker myself, i noticed that the journalist speaks both Russian and Ukrainian, i'm just wondering would she secretly select the content before hand it over to Stephen since the language barrier exists?
I'm surprised that Asian Boss cover this theme, but they did it very well. I'm amazed with the quality of the content.
lets be honest here, everyone was waiting for this
if any of the interviewees are reading this, thank you for being so honest and sharing your thoughts. particularly to the russians who spoke so candidly about their disapproval and disgust of this war. may the ukrainian people know peace and safety soon. stay strong.
Asian boss is South Korean CNN. I dont believe half of these "russians" were in fact russians.

Ukraine could have chosen peace and saftey by implementing the Minsk Agreements, that they had already signed. Instead they chose war.

Amazing interview! I'm from Poland, we're closely working with Ukraine now, have over million of refugees already, helping however we can, and for the first time ever I'm actually proud of my country. We're donate money, food, toys, clothes etc give our own homes and find jobs for thise people and I'm so glad they can finde some peace and help in here.
And I can confirm taht the confusion and amount of fake news is huge. Even here in Poland we're a target of lots of fake news and cyber attacks every day. Countries taht are not involved or far away from this conflict don't realize how insane this situation is, how much propaganda, chaosz fake news and fear there is.
Honestly, I know everyone has their own opinions, but please listen first to the people who are actually involved and experience this and have credible sources and knowledge about the situation. We're already well aware and couscous about fake news, but it spreads around the world, to the places that often have no experience with it and it's very dangerous. So listen only to the reliable sources, don't spread misinformation, don't donate to some random organizations, don't post in social media random facts or videos, it's a live or death situation for those people, so have some respect.
You are doing very good job Poland. And thankyou very much for helping Indian students and other nationals during this tough time. We are very grateful to you Poland 🙏 lots of love from India 🇮🇳❤️
@@CK_channell I've heard about Indian students escaping through Poland 🙌 so glad they managed to do that, can't imagine how stressful it must have been.
@@Aloszka7 yeah... they are evacuating through Poland, Romania, Hungary, Slovakia. We are very grateful for your support and help🙏 here in India, student's parents are very scared, they are crying and praying for safety of their children. We are here in India also praying for Ukrainians. Hope so this war will end soon🙏🥺🥺 War is not the solution of any problem.
@@CK_channell We hope so too 🙌 War is never a solution. I hope everyone return home safe. It's a very difficult situation, and I know Poland isn't perfect and there might be some incidents, but considering that all this help is done by volunteers, private businesses, organizations and individuals is incredible. Our government haven't done anything, it's all organized by citizens, so it's pretty incredible how it all worked out.
@@Aloszka7 we understand this that no country is perfect... India is not perfect too. So don't worry dear we are not misunderstanding you and we love Poland, polish people, polish culture and all. There is a policy that India follows- Vasudhaiva kutumbkam which means this whole earth is our home.
Infact We all are one.😊
Please don't feel bad, Asian Boss, for not being in the countries yourselves. Protect your own safety, because you can't work unless you are safe and healthy. This was more than enough!

I love that Asian boss seems to be as neutral as possible. How biased/fake most news is nowadays makes me sick so this is a breath of fresh air.
indeed, neutral is the firmest stance
There is nothing fake about the war in Ukraine it’s literally live for the world to see
South korea itself get into hot water because it declared itself member of non-bloc countries association. But acted as 1st/western bloc. And asian boss' based in S. Korea
You forgot a month ago asian boss comment section was filled with Indian bots
should you always stay neutral, find the average of two situations?
Governments mess up while it's always the citizens who suffer 😡
It's not just some "conflict". It's an occupation, an invasion. Please do not use that word.
Hello! You can watch the reports of an American journalist, his name is Patrick Lancaster.

@@ekate_rina_rina Well, I'm literally a Ukrainian from this region. Absolute majority does not want to have any deal with russia. Only some crazy ass enjoyers of USSR past, it's a very marginalized group of people which btw russia always using in their media to justify the occupation.
It is true that ordinary Russians are being victimized and Ukrainians are being murdered. This is such a painful situation for all of us on the planet where peace is yearned for by most of us. When this is over I wish for stability and prosperity for everyone,
@Sven Andersson I think the large majority of people are able to separate between government and the people, and are also able to separate between the part of the population who support the government and the part of the population that doesn't.
So yeah, OBVIOUSLY there are SOME normal everyday Russian people who have something to do with the invasion. Don't be stupid. BUT, there are OTHERS who don't. Furthermore, just because there are SOME who support their government invading Ukraine, doesn't mean that they are bad people or that the deserve to have their life savings ruined. The majority of Russians who support the war are still good people, and are victims of their government's decision, even if they support that decision.
God, I despise emotional people like you who intentionally ask baiting questions designed to start hateful arguments. Pipe down.
@Sven Andersson Sven, when faced with Siberia or what little is left on offer, one can understand. I speak of modern Siberia too.
There's still the demographic of MIA grey pre iron curtain that's at his mercy on welfare.

The war will end. But I don't think Zelensky will shake Putin's hand. He will never forgive Putin for all the destruction in Ukraine, and all the deaths of the Ukranians, and also of the Russian young men who didn't want to fight in a war. Zelensky said that Putin used the young Russian soldiers like a train conductor uses wood pieces, throwing them into the fire for his machine.
And Putin will never shake the hand of the heroic Ukranian president who stayed with his people and humiliated Putin's military and Putin's ego.

Now, this is a real journalism.... You showed us from both sides.... Thank you, Asian Boss!
Tbh it's amazing that Ukraine is holding their own atm well done Asian boss
when you attack in modern warfare you need 7:1 ratio to win. 500k Germans in WW2 attacked Kyev and lost 100k man to capture it. Russia has 300k manpower on an nation with 48M people whos now climate and weather make it hard for the tanks to move because of the mud. Ukraine will win this, especially if they get airplanes, if they get them now they gonna get back all possible including Crimea. Its amazing how Russia is doing bad, but this shows that the command is afraid to tell Putin whats in the Real Time, noone gives bad news to dictators. Its sad that someone gave Putin a chance to have his finger around nuclear button to make the world in danger, includin me and you gentleman, nuclear war its just the end of the planet.
They're definitely not holding their own, they're being violently attacked and fleeing, what do you mean?

I am a so called "Spätaussiedler". It means that my ancestors did come from Germany to imperial russia to work for Katherina the great and stayed there till the late 20th century. I came to germany in 1998.
We speak russian and we cook russian because we got a lot of culture from there in our family.
Now in germany people does start to hate me for my roots. They discriminate me because for the government and for the people Putin equals all russian ethnicities. That is insane and sad.
But what makes me sad more as a half slavic man is, that no matter what slavic country that originated from the rus, no matter if russia, poland or Ukraine, the leaders there do allow propaganda against the other slavic ethnicities. I refuse to hate polish or Ukraine people because some government tells me. And i hope people from poland and Ukraine also refuse to hate us. We are slavic brothers and sisters. We should be one big family...

well to me... it all goes down to one thing..it breaks my heart how innocent lives suffered the most here. My prayers that peacefulness may reign in these countries🙏
The half Russian half Ukrainian guy has it the worst because he probably doesn't know how he should feel about all of this making it very mentally frustrating.
To be honest as a none Russia/Ukrainian or a Westerner, I can see both sides being valid including his Ukraine and Russia relatives who I am sure have their own reasons why they agree with disagree but none of em asked for it.
Russia and Ukraine are brother nations.. There is a huge percentage of russians with Ukrainian relatives.
How he should feel?🤯 omg as a Pole I can assure you it is very easy here to know what
He shouldn't be feeling. Instead he should be thinking. One tyrant 3,000 miles away is no worse nor better than 3,000 tyrants 1 mile away. Plenty of people alive today still remember when they were a single country too. People blew 9/11 out of proportion. They blew covid out of proportion. They're doing the same here. The world has become overly emotional children. The bulk of their problems and yours come from your feelings and inability to grow up.
The 2 halves are hating each other in the same body.

Thanks for all interviewees for their words and courage. Respect and love to Asianboss team for their sincere effort to capture voices from real people
Asian Boss thank you for doing this interview. It's always important to hear views from both sides, not from experts or politicians, but from people who are affected by this war. Like one of the interviewee mentioned, anything Russian will be sanctioned. I'm from NYC, there are many Russia and Ukrainian businesses here. I also have Ukrainian and Russia friends but there's no animosity between them. One of my Jewish Russian friend owns a store and people have avoided buying from them despite his family fleeing Russia in the 70s. I understand that people are angry and want to blame someone, but it's definitely wrong to ostracize Russians who have nothing to do with the war. We still haven't learned from history. This definitely feels like what happened to Japanese Americans back in WWII.
True, it's like blaming someone for slavery just because their skin is white. We love all good people.

На данный момент большинство обычных русских не чувствует влияние санкций за исключением того, что есть рост цен из-за курса валют, но пока он не критичен.
За границей, конечно, это иначе. Как минимум люди не могут пользоваться своими банковскими картами, не могут как раньше летать домой и обратно. Зачастую люди, которые живут за границей владеют бизнесом связанным с РФ и, конечно, они чувствуют сложности в связи с санкциями.
@@superVeronichka Это неправда, и я не знаю, почему вы пишете подобные вещи. Мне кажется, вы живете не в Москве и поэтому не осознаете всего масштаба проблем. Москва первой почувствовала на себе все это, потому что большая часть зарубежных компаний базируется здесь. Но у меня есть несколько друзей, которые потеряли рабочие места или финансирование, потому что это были филиалы иностранных компаний. Моя мама работает в фирме, большей частью функционирующей на импорте и экспорте, и если вы считаете, что рост курса валют некритичен, то вы очень сильно заблуждаетесь. Моя подруга нуждается в зарубежных лекарствах и периодическом обследовании, которое она теперь не может получить, потому что больше эти лекарства в страну не поставляют, и данные аппараты в России не производятся. Некоторые предприятия уже перестают работать, потому что нет сырья или запчастей для оборудования. И это только то, что я знаю от близких мне людей, а какое количество всего я еще не вижу - большой вопрос.

Our government makes new laws against us each day like you can get arrested just for saying “war” instead of “special operation”, we can’t donate to people in Ukraine because it is concidered “state treason”, 15 years in prison for spreading “fake” information about everything that’s happening. But who decides which info is true and which is fake? Of course our government. It is harder to breath for ordinary Russian people, who don’t even want this war.

Slavic culture is beautiful. Russians and Ukrainians shouldn't be at war. My heart and condolences go out to any Ukrainian or Russian that are suffering the burden and tragedy of this conflict, including those that made a risky, yet selfless maneuver to stand up against the mad man Putin.

Russians are not Slavic but mix 180+, mostly non-Slavic ethnicities from all over the Eurasian Moscow colonies, and yes, these non-Slavic Russians speak a Slavic-like language, frequently somehow. If you look at Russian KIA(killed in action) at war in Ukraine, they are primarily Russian Mongols like Kalmyk and Buriats; Russian Turks like Tatar, Chuvash, Bashkir, Nogay, Yakut, etc.; Russian Finno-Ugric like Mary, Mordva, Udmurt, Karelian, Erzia, Moksha, Sobyane, etc.; Russians Caucasians like Ingush, Chechens, Avar, Dargin, Lak, Lezgian and etc.; Russians from far North-East Asia like Chukcha, Nivkh, Koryak, Evenk, etc.; plus more than 60 000 Russian mercenaries pulled from all over the world like China, India, Nepal, Shri Lanka, Siera Leone, Yemen, Somalia, Cuba, Venezuela, Nicaragua, Syria, Livia, CAR, Tajikistan, etc.

I don't agree with war. but I see a lot of Korean policeman in the background and I'm wondering if this interview is taking from an anti war protest. if so I think the Asian Boss should point it out at the begining of the video that it is not a street interview they normally do.
they did tho, at the beginning... do you expect them to stand on the street and ask everybody passing by if theyre from the ukraine or russia? a demo or protest is a logical place to find people to interview. both sides tend to show up, given they interviewed russians with differing opinions/news sources.

To the Russians that are being victimized or feeling isolated I stand with you... Stay strong! the government policies are not the citizens policies. It is so sad to see abroad Ukrainians speaking about their relatives or family members still in Ukraine. Tragic to know that this is all due to a battle of ideologies
it's possible some or even many people still in ukraine refuse to leave... leaving your homeland due to war is never easy, even in the direst of situations.
At least their families are not being blown to pieces as we speak.
it is so funny that people can even compare between Russia sanction and the war in Ukraine . Russian wont die if they cant eat McDonald but Ukraine people are dying from bullets and bomb.
What Russia did to Ukraine was disgusting

As a Chinese American, even I feel that it may also affect me, even if I am not a Chinese Citizen.

Здравствуйте,я могу говорить по-китайски как в Германии так и в Италии.Большинство наших СМИ и тайваньских репортажей подчеркивает,что русский Путин выступал против вступления Украины в НАТО из-за энергии и земли,поэтому он вторгся в Украину,что редко упоминается.Нарушение и притеснение этнических Русские на Донбассе. Они относятся к России как к двустороннему стандарту. Кроме того,молодым россиянам легко промывают мозги западные СМИ,поддерживают так называемую демократию и свободу,и игнорируют факт войны.Ошибки обеих сторон.Президент Украины думал,что с помощью США и НАТО ,они разгромят Россию.Политики не будут считать жизнь и смерть простых людей. Первоначально завершение Beixi Line 2 имело много преимуществ для Германии, но это также то, чего не хотят видеть Соединенные Штаты. Так спровоцируйте Украину на провокацию России, что в итоге приведет к войне. В итоге в Интернете почти не упоминалось о США. Просто продолжайте обвинять Россию. Единственные победители в этой войне - США, а проигравшие - Россия, Украина и Евросоюз. Вы, русские, должны рассказать людям мира больше о двух сторонах этой войны.

You interviewed people from both sides, which is nice, but they all shared the same opinion and ideology. It would be more interesting to hear what people who disagree with this opinion have to say. And not only Russians, there are also people in Ukraine who will disagree with what have been said in this interview.
You are so right
Its harder to find crazy ppl though
Hello! You can watch the reports of an American journalist, his name is Patrick Lancaster. For example, his video on youtube dated June 26, 2022: First Look Into Russian Controlled Kharkiv Region Ukraine (Special Report) - «Как обстоят дела в контролируемой Россией Харьковской области Украины (специальный репортаж)».
There he interviews people who are on the territory of Ukraine, Kharkiv region. Also neutral, as in this video, under which I am writing a comment.
There is also a very good BBC report from 2014 - года «Why do some Ukrainians want to be part of Russia? BBC News» - interviews with people living in Ukraine near the border with Russia. View from both sides of the conflict.
@@imarryday we already found one, you apparently
@@ekate_rina_rina Patrick Lancaster is Kremlin propaganda tho.
Its interesting that most of ukrainian people speaks russian. I know both russian and english. And i can say that translation is not so understandable for english speakin people. I mean that translation is correct but the meaning of phrases is not so correct. Video is good. It was interesting to hear a regular people opinion. (and i am russian)
To be honest if you're interviewing people at a demonstration you are not gonna get representitive opinions from these people. They are all saying the same with other words.
Then they can also scrap every of their interviews in China since they are monitored
Agreed.
Absolutely biased
@@irodeker can you tell me who is surrounded Donbas? Who shot Malaysian airplane with innocent people on Ukraine? You’re just a kreml propaganda, don’t even try to discuss about something on Ukraine, shut your mouth
It’s really up to the editor’s opinion though. They can use different editing to show their own view.
Glad to see there are some comprehensive discussion rather than a unilateral condemnation.
"It's a substantial geopolitical issue in which Ukraine got trapped" 4:21, very well said.
Its not geopolitical, study it a bit and you will see. Baltic states are already in NATO, they dont need Ukraine if they want to aim at Russia. Putin even made it clear that hes up to the Czar times, that means Alaska should be back to Russia too. Putin needs a war, thats how he got in power. Study why Jelcin made from the shades Putin president, study the first Chechnya war and the ''terrorist'' attack in Moscow, whom the muslims are blamed not FSB. I spended so much thous days about this topic cus I have friends in Russia as well in Ukraine, and Im from Bosnia and Herzegovina who had war 30 years ago. At the bitter end, Moscow today is not bombed, its Ukraine by Russias led Putin, he has nukes, only Russians can stop him but since they support him and he is a de facto dictator, hardly this gonna end so soon. Since this, everyone wants join NATO and EU, its not that they are expanding as everyone wants to get away from Moscow, just as it was during the collapse of the Warshaw pact. GDP or Russia is almost like the state of Texas, Bangladesh has more population than Russia, Russia is the biggest country in the world and had border wars with every country including China many times. Its not about NATO, what u people think ? That nuking a capital city makes it a target no. Putin could buy elections in Ukraine in 2014, but the western pact gave more money, Ukraine never had any fair elections, same as Russia and Belaruss. But Ukraine gave lgbt rights, women where seen on presidental elections.
I’m surprised more people didn’t say that in the interview. It’s all geopolitics and the return of great power politics (the cause of the war).
Excuses. Russia should never have invaded Ukraine.
@@Jopa955 this is a geopolitical issue. You are confusing geopolitics with war. Putin doesn't fear war with NATO. Russia NATO war will never happen because of the nukes. Putin, being the one in power, doesn't want western influence in politics of Russia(or of its neighbour countries).
While Russia GDP might be low, they have huge resources. Its interesting to see how Putin will handle the sanctions. Iran did fairly well, Russia is in much better position than Iran was. Will this mark the end of Russia as a threat to the western interests or will it grow bigger, we'll have to wait and see. If Putin could somehow unite Russia, India and China using this conflict, it will create a new age in world order for better or worse.
Every single country in this conflict have made terrible decisions so far escalating it more and more. Ukrainian citizens are the biggest losers in this war with almost nothing to gain. EU countries(Germany and Italy specially) will lose a lot too. US and China are the clear winners.
@@GTX311 The point really is… Russia did not invade Ukraine… Putin‘s army invaded Ukraine. During World War II the Japanese imperial army invaded China… Not Japanese citizens. It will work too it’s the Nazis that were held responsible for atrocities and Germany paid the price.
I sincerely hope history treats this is Putin‘s war and no Russian aggression against their brothers. Even Russians who support the war heaven fed a narrative, as you can clearly see from this video that makes it hard not to support it.
Nothing gives me more hope than the love and support of peace from the world right now .. hope we continue this
Good to see that the Russians on here are so sane.
This interview asked good questions as always. It is sad to see both side of people did not agree with the war but the war still happened. But it also showed how ordinary people are blind to what was happening in the past and what their politicians have done. From the answers of Ukrainian s it is clear that this war is inevitable. It is really a tragedy.
That is an odd conclusion to come to based on any of the answers of both Russian & Ukrainians interviewed. The exact opposite is true, that this war was indeed avoidable and not inevitable. Perhaps that is what you meant and it's a mistranslation because no other conclusion is possible.

What an awful situation for people of both countries
already many ordinary Russians are facing difficulties due to current happening, its not surprising that most interviewed said similar things. Would have been great if opinions of other side was also included.
Korea itself has probably the highest experience of dealing and balancing relationship with world powers.
10:06 "They Had Us In the First Half, I'm not gonna lie." All of these people interviewed in this video are gold. I'm crying.
I'm sorry, but this statement that "people are suffering on both sides" is kinda offending for me to hear.
one thing that your money isn't avaliable for you to freely use it and completely other thing is when you get a missile in your appartment/house. these two things are absolutely incomparable.
if you think that Ukrainians don't have trouble with money these days, you're wrong. A LOT of people have lost their jobs due to this war, and because of the battles in southern and eastern regions of Ukraine (which means there's no way to transport foods and stuff from that regions to other) the prices in stores skyrocketed. Salesman from ocupated territories are forbidden to sell their products in Kyjiw or anywhere else so they MUST throw away the goods they have planted and harvested...
I totally understand that many Russians really don't support this barbarism, but there are also people (what frightens me the most - there are women among them), who are being supportive of the situation and even encourage Russian soldiers (their husbands, brothers, sons etc) to kill and rape women/NEWBORN children and even men....
I just hope this nightmare ends as quickly and as less painful as possible.....
Asking russian people at a pro ukranian protest really defeats the whole purpose of the video.
Well, they need to show that the Russians are against Putin, so they take the very 2% of the liberal opposition in Russia that were against Putin before. This is a search for a solution already knowing the answer.

This was caused by NATO expansion, the existence of Neo Nazis and the killing of ethnic Russians in Donetsk and Lugansk is just a small factor compared to the threat of Ukraine becoming NATO for Russia.
All pathetic excuses. Invading one of the largest countries in the world, completely destroying it and massacring it's population can never be justified, no matter how big a threat NATO expansion is. Besides, Ukraine isn't even a part of NATO.
@@OliCM3 @Oliver Craner It is not one of the largest countries on the world.
1. Ukraine was massacring ethnic Russians within Ukraine for 8 years, search it up.
2. Russia is not massacring it's population, that's western propaganda. There are so many holes in the western narrative that you can pick apart with some critical thinking
3. No one is saying it's justified, it's horrible, but we must all understand that it was provoked by NATO expansion to Russia's doorsteps. Russia is reacting exactly how USA reacted during the Cuban missile crisis. It is undeniable that this is caused by the threat of NATO expansion, which was created against Russia...
4. Joining NATO is written into Ukraine's constitution, so it is inevitable that it will continue trying to join and maybe join NATO. This is a big nono for Russia, understandably due to national security issues. The invasion is not right, but there is a reason behind it, and it all points towards NATO expansion and American interference in foreign affairs

1. Such a tiny proportion, totally insignificant. Besides, how does invading the whole Country help?
2. It's not Western propaganda, its literally all coverage other than Russian state media.
3. Utter rubbish. How does Countries joining NATO make invading Ukraine the answer?
4. The very reason Ukraine and other Countries want to join NATO is because of Russian aggression. All Putin has done is burn more bridges and increase the threat against Russia.
Are you Russian? Do you think Russians are safer with Ukraine being invaded?
Do you really think all the footage of mass graves, demolished towns, countless accounts from civilians, intercepted Russian radio conversations are all fake? With all the lies Putin has told, all the people who end up dead or arrested who oppose him, do you really believe what he's telling Russia?
Yes he invaded Ukraine to block nato expansion and now Finland and Sweden want to join nato, and what will be Ukraine after the war will get closer anyway to the west. Genius move.
Almost everyone in this video had such well thought out answers and acknowledged the nuances of all this. Its amazing to see people be so well thought out about all this.

About Putin lovers. Dont worry about sanctions, culture and living standard, while your leader conduct a special military operation in Ukraine, civilized world is conducting a special economical operation.

"Putin is not Russia" That really hit me. What a beautiful thing to say.
Russia and the Russian people gave birth to this misunderstanding called Putin. When they were able to kill people in other countries with impunity, they were fine with it! Now they are crying that they have no money, but no one is shooting and killing them in the streets. Should they tolerate it, or should only Ukrainians suffer? If they have no money, they'd better start working on their own country, instead of destroying other peoples. Believe me, the Russians would not feel sorry for you.
