Jeffrey Sachs Explanation - The Origins of the Ukraine War & The Truth about NATO 

Bowing down to this great personality who dare to speak out the truth. We need people like you. Thank you Sir 🙏 நன்றி ஐயா வணங்குகிறேன் 🙏 - from India

Where has this gentleman been. He seems to be one of very few people who have the guts to speak the truth.

More people need to watch this. I'm tired of being lied to...

Unfortunately, we don't have many of Prof. Jeffrey Sachs in this world. What a shame !!!

Sachs clearly brings to light the importance of how facts paint a clear picture of the truth. We need more people like him in the World 🙏

Как же их мало, кто не боиться говорить правду! Храни их Господь!

Finally someone is telling the truth....

Thanks Professor Sachs for telling us the truth and promote peace

Professor Sachs is needs to continue to speak out to the world. We need him more than ever, as the world has a great chance for the better.

The simple fact every newsmedia had to say "it was unprovoked" means it was very much provoked.

Finally someone telling it like it is. Thx Mr. Sachs.

Thanks for explanation and reminder. I find it sad that this is not pointed out so clearly in western media.

Thank you so much for this enlightening video about the Ukraine war.

Unfortunately, we don't have many Prof. Jeffrey Sachs in this world.

The evil empire will soon come to an end.

Truth is dangerous and more dangerous are the people who speak truth.

Jeffrey you're best of the best . You're honest, well informed and bringing us "true" and I believe that a lot of people didn't knew above these things You've mentioned. Unfortunately for NATO loosing support from a lot of countries because "rudeness" . These countries where long time business partners especially with USA . Now most of them switched sides to China and Russia . In the soon future USA won't be having friends and business partners and will loose NATO members at the end USA will be under sanctions from rest of the World if USA/NATO would change their policy. Worst what could happen that America have their own war between North and South because that way started and will finish that way. I will say "karma" will punish everyone sooner or later.

I have watched things happening in Ukraine since 2014, and Mr. Sachs is right! I am from Romania, and wanted to know what the hell went on in Ukraine since 2008, because they are our northern, misunderstood, neighbours. The Ukrainian Parliament always promoted laws that banned Romanian, Hungarian, and Russian languages in schools, public places, thus acting very non-democratic from start. But EU suddenly started supporting a government that lacked any empathy for it’s minority citizens, things that all other EU countries handle very well. But that’s just one of many aspects. The difference between Ukraine hurting minorities like Hungarians, Romanians etc vs the Russians living in Ukraine is that when it came to Ukraine persecuted Russian, there was a response from Moscow. So the bottom line is, you won’t mess with Russia & Russian and get away with it. Much respect to Putin for that! The U.S. looks to me that is a warmonger, a sneaky player going to countries around the world messing with their internal affairs, but never directly, always making it look like it is the fault of their targets, and then “intervening” and coming into the aid of the proxy country. Of course, this was not the case everywhere, but since the 2000’s this has been going on!

I like many of us remember the Berlin Wall coming down; I was watching it happen on TV here in London......first thing that came to mind was that NATO would now be scaled-down... Clearly it didn't happen.. Everything this gentleman is saying is the complete truth as far as I'm concerned. He's spot on...

May the blessings rain upon those who speaks the truth, but nothing but the truth.

The World needs you Doctor ,have a long and peaceful life amen ❤❤❤

“ the US likes a policy of amnesia rather than a policy of memory”

I feel privileged to have been able to find your unique channel and I am looking forward studying its contents and watching the videos with your informative and educational topics. Greetings from a Hungarian citizen, living in the Netherlands! 🙏🇭🇺🌷🇳🇱

Much gratitude to you prof Sachs for defending the helpless and the meek👍🌻.

Thank you for people like you in this world. God bless

You are amazing biggest fan here 👍👍👍👍👍❤️

A brilliant truth of historical facts.....

He's right that we missed an opportunity in 1990 to help Russia become a democracy., but it's plain stupid to conclude that the USA is responsible for NATO expansion in Eastern europe. NATO membership is based on free choice and was a no brainer for countries being suppressed by USSR for decades. NATO expansion was inevitable. For a well respected person this guy's analysis deeply unimpresses me.

Well said, Jeffrey! Professor Jeffrey is worthy of his title as a distinguished professor and a noble gentleman!! Truth always outshines lies and the truth about Ukraine will emerge soon.

Thank you Professor Sachs for this video & for telling the truth to the world. How I wish there were more Americans like you. God bless you. Best wishes from Australia 🇦🇺

Thank you Dr. Sachs for your work. Not only is it great to hear sensible, true things being said. It is also really supportive in times like these when your head is spinning among tons of lies and hysteria

This man Mr Sachs needs to be Protected at all cost . It will be the US Govt who will try to put a stop to this man's TRUTH.

@ Jeffrey Sach's: You are correct. Bravo!!! 👏

A brilliant professor and an amazing sincere person! I always watch whenever I can.

Thank You very much for this open, honestly and reasonable speech, Mr.Sachs. Respect!!! I hope Your speech will find it’s way to White house.

True speaking thank you

Jeffrey Sacks is briljant! Hy is so slim en eerbaar!

To all haters: it's called critical thinking, not support to Russia, China or other. Sadly critical thinking is becoming rare in the contemporary world which is totally brainwashed by the unending promise of limitless happiness through consumerism.

A good summary of the causes of this conflict. Since this video was made obviously Japan has continued to buy Russian oil & last month (March 2023) Russian oil export receipts returned to pre-war levels. By the way, the EU also continues to buy Russian oil & LPG, at a premium price, through Indian & Chinese middlemen. In refineries in those countries, Russian product is mixed with product from other producers &, hey presto, it's no longer "Russian" oil or gas, so not subject to sanctions. Where there's a will, there's a way!

Thanks Mr Sachs, excellent presentation that clarifies the reality of unipolar domination.

The truth needs to be heard.Thank you.

In order to understand what preceeded the Russian / Ukraine, a person has to do their own research and seek information from independent reliable sources. An Indian newscaster provided excellent advice. She recommended ignoring advice from involved parties and only accept news announcements from objective unbiased news agencies.

Do continue with your warnings and historical reports. Prevention is better than cure. We say NO TO WAR! My grandchildren will not go to war!

I feel sorry for the people who believed that puppet Zelensky is a hero.

Thanks for the enlightment

Thanks for the enlightenment.

He saying is absolutely right.

Gorbachev was so foolish to believe the oral promise made by the West not for NATO expand to the East.

Thank you for the truth. Many people know, many people have been there, but are unable to prove.

Thank you Professor for always standing by the truth . This for sure is the beginning of the end and total collapse of this evil empire.

Perfectly right ❤

Thank you for speaking the truth 🙏 we know who the tyrant is long time,

Thank you 🙏 for speaking the truth beyond the popular disinformation that is so replete in the media of all kinds today 🙏 please continue the good work sir!🙏 I was expecting 1000s of support comments on this video 😮 where the the truth seekers ?!

On point information

You know I appreciate your bravery and professionalism in time of war on revealing the truth to whole world. Thankyou I believe your work will not go in vain and to ultimately help our world be war free from Naziism and nato and democratic neocons that disrespect humanity. I believe we're closer to acheiving peace through clear minded diplomacy and truth to bring about world peace is achievable today.

You are a great man the population is getting more enlightened by your lectures.

thats the real truth we know thank you proffessor for coming out ith this true story

Thank you and keep the info coming! 👍

I've hit the jackpot, found a gold channel, subscribed

Thank-you

Long life, Jeffrey ❤

Very interesting indeed!!🤔🤔🇬🇧

Excellent summation.

The content of this video by Jeffry Sachs is undermined by the "artsy" production. The gravitas of his knowledge on the subject, as he lays out should really be presented without artsy indulgence.

Hes telling the truth

This analysis is insightful, Professor, and I concur with your perspective. However, it seems to overlook the will of the people in those nations. The times have changed significantly since 30 years ago. If these countries desire to join the EU and/or NATO, their wishes should be paramount, regardless of the perspectives or desires of other nations.

Jeffrey for president 🇺🇸

If Jeffrey Sachs wants to explain, he should start with his own role in the disastrous economic mess in Russia in the 90s. He helped with the "restructuring" that caused enormous pain to Russians and led directly to the annointing of the dictator Putin.

Respect sir. For telling the true..

Thank you Sir . That is a big time propaganda and the dummies fall for it. And justifying their evil plans and doing. Thank you Sir . Well said ..

So much knowledge

I wish American people watch your program Mr. Sachs

Correction UKRAIN war started planing on 1993 by USA

Thanks for the info

For such a time as this, has God used you for the purpose.Amen

Always wary of people wanting to tell me the Truth...

Thanks Professor for your unbiased,factual and fearless speech.

Big fan of Sachs. Why can’t there be more voices like his?

Prof Sach in my opinion Ukraine is a sovereign country n Russia should hav respected that, if Russia feels they want to fight a war why don't they someone thier own size eg the USA or Nato why did Putin decide to take on Ukraine because he knows Ukraine is far weaker militarily. It's a shame.

True story.

Sadly only 101k people watch this, a lot of people out there still being ignorant, instead of seeking truth they comparing which country have military dominance. Their mind is rotting by entertainment nowadays.

This needs to be re-posted as a new video. I think people after watching this nightmare for as long as we all have our still confused about the backstory. And how we got to this point and we know it could’ve been avoided. I’m the same age as you Jeffrey and have been an antiwar activist since junior high school. I remember being a little kid in grammar school when we had to airy drills because “the Russians are coming the Russians are coming” indoctrinating us with propaganda at a very early age. Intuitively I even knew back then but it didn’t ring is truth. And recounting truthful history has proven that. In the 80s I was an anti-nukes activist and was very involved in that movement being an adult by then and thought with the Gorbachev agreement the world would be safe but just like our treaties with the Native Americans we never honor them once they don’t serve us anymore. No one has more blood on your hands than the United States of America. I’m ashamed of our behavior on a daily basis whether it’s historical or current. The arrogance and the bullying that the US has done over the years is an obvious pattern that can’t be ignored. Just like you say if you follow the timeline the US is really to blame for all of this that’s happening right now aside from the past transgressions that put us into illegal wars And financed coups and other wars. Just like all the blood we have in our hands in Syria right now that nobody wants to talk about. We have to acknowledge that we are the biggest warmongers on the planet even though we only represent about 4.2% of the population.

Refreshing to see someone translating what the Russian state TV is saying. Thanks Comrade . 🖖

Countries ask to join NATO not the other way around. Georgia wanted to join in 2006 so Putin created a climate a situation for an excuse to invade. The war started in Ukraine because Yanukovich went against parliament and refused to sign the agreement to go to Europe and wanted a deal with Putin. There was a popular protest created through social media culminating in the Maidan when over 100 people were killed. Yanukovich fled to Moscow to escape impeachment. The only part America played was to appeal for a peaceful transfer of power. America was supposed to guarantee Ukraine's sovereignty under the Budapest Memorandum. When Putin sent his men to Crimea and the Donbas in retaliation for losing his puppet. America and the rest of the world did nothing. This man has totally swallowed the Russian propaganda

Another great analysis by professor Sachs

Well said Spread the word

Bravo!

All the new NATO members asked to join, that should tell you everything !

So many many many times i wrote literally this video in my comments on RU-vid, and everybody said the worst things to me. Soon or later the truth comes out it’s unavoidable.

Some of us know Ukraine started this in 2014. I can't understand why the EU,NATO etc accepted the racist behaviour from Ukraine

Well said. One could add that East Germany was to be a "buffer zone" as the agreement was no (foreign) military bases in that part of reunited Germany

Gorbachev collapsed the USSR because it had already collapsed, from Chernobyl to Afghanistan.

If you guys don’t know this is “DEMOCRACY AT ITBEST”

Excellent mind

Thank you for speaking out in support of peace Prof Sachs. This war can & should end through negotiations.

Well said

Bravo Sir J. Bravo. May the yunas bless you and Long live Amen Amen 👍🙏🌍 Amen

the fundamental problem in all this is the fact that it is not NATO that expands, but other countries that want to join NATO structures for security against russia. let's just look at which countries joined NATO after the collapse of the USSR, mostly countries that gained independence from the communists Before the war that Russia started, economic ties between Russia and Germany were huge... in fact, Germany became dependent on Russia for raw materials, which after February 2022 was a very big problem for Germany. Justifying the invasion of another country with the expansion of NATO is another flawed argument of Russia. like the food crisis. recently, even putin claimed that he was defending ukraine against a polish invasion. nonsense. He contradicts himself with every statement he makes Unfortunately, we have a perfect example that a country that could be a significant economy in the world was destroyed by its leader, who has the illusion of his greatness. I only feel sorry for the society whose only fault is passivity for the dictatorship

Question is: How cam we stop this conflict?

Congrats sir. Thank you for your honesty. It’s really hard to be real and honest this “democratic” days.
