Kaliningrad: Putin's Exclave I ARTE.tv Documentary 

Por qué tan envidiosos ? La grandeza de Rusia provoca envidia a los países sin recursos 🤔. Por eso quieren apropiarse de su gas,de su fertilizante , su petróleo y minerales?? Europa saqueadora

YOU TRADE LIES BRICS DESTROYED AMERICAN ECONOMY THIS WHY AMERICAN DOLLAR SUFFER RUSSIA IS PART OFF BRICS NASIONS

Kaliningrad/Konigsburger is German and should return to Germany , Russians should stop their imperialism and start focusing their energy on modernizing their vast country rather than stealing more territories from neighboring countries.....

The Russians dont close their nation. They intensified cooperation with china, india and many parts of africa. Poor western propaganda Arte. Ukraine is suffering for this narrative.

why don't you talk about the "digital ruble".. "they" had to be kicked off swift so they can use.. FEDnow is america's... "one world currency, cashless, track everything".. D- score

no terrorussia - no problems for neighbors!

Of course they are brainwashed. Poland wants all eastern poland before ww2 and according to prometheus plan to divide russia , exploit it and rule over ancient lithuanian polish commonwealth. Exactly what nazis wanted in ww2.

Brainwashing is mixing everything with politics just to tout how moral an institution is. Where's the morality in banning art, sports, etc. of people who didn't chose to start a war?

United we stand against the Russian aggression, Lithuania has accomplished a lot like Ukraine after the independence, oligarchy in Russia stuffs their pockets and Russian people don’t seem to understand that they been rapped by its dictator.

how much for a property there? 😅

Yes, absolutelly ... In such case here 0:59 nobody was fooled .. Furthermore the population of Eastern Prussia and even most of Germany today was Slavic but the border moved eastwards all the way to Kaliningrad

I hope the issue get resolved sometime, either they seperate from russia and or merge with one of the three countries just so we have the russian headache gone from our back garden.

Good luck western ego chump.

Don't you worry - nobody will ever let you have Kaliningrad, not a chance in hell. Or Lithuania or Germany either. Germany wisely doesn't even discuss the subject. "Weapons are on display in WWII museums, not in the city centers". - of course, because Poland lost. Your government ran away abandoning the army and the people. There is little to be proud of. "we are not occupiers. We never had any colonies and we haven’t occupied others nations forcibly". Yes, you did, occupy other nations, that is. Not every successfully and usually not for long but you did. May a give you just one example, the Poland's aggression again the Soviet Russia in 1919 that resulted in Polish occupation of the Western Ukraine and Belorussia. You don't know anything about your own history, do you?

Lithuania or Germany have no right to take over Kaliningrad, it is Russian territory.

Yeah it's like saying America has never been an aggressor ah!

All, liberated from Nazis by USSR!

Poland, the Baltics and Finland were defensive acts since all countries were to either fall victim to Nazi Germany or become their allies. Czechoslovakia and Hungary must be seen in the context of the Cold War The US did the same in Vietnam and had plans for Italy in case the Communists win the elections. Chechnya was a Russian Republic and after the first war it became a lawless country without a working judcial system, healthcare, schools or police. Georgia started the war by bombarding South Ossetia.

And what about the US? Since independence they have fought over 200 wars with an estimated 5 to 6 million civilian deaths and is that normal?

You are right better stay away dont make trouble with russ. Lithuania smart doesnt want kaliningrad later after given .. they will take back later like crimea .. even if you dont support or against them the consequences could happen like ukraine .

Lithuania didn't really have an offer in Soviet times.

Absolutely. Fortunately/Unfortunately for those who took the effort to understand war, money & nature from works like Sun Wu's Art of War, Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations & Carl Sagan's Vision of Humanity, s/he/they will realise there exist many who will seek profits/opportunities from this crisis. This may explain why many elites/experts from states like US, China, EU, India, UK, Russia, AU, Brazil, etc. groups like IMF, WHO, UNP, RSF, ICC, WFP, TSB, POG, etc. & firms like Apple, Tencent, Samsung, Nestle, Loreal, Tata, Sony, Siemens, etc. are already making their moves in the cyber/shadow space.

@Ian Sacks That's a very interesting observation.

@Ian Sacks Spot on. But at least in the US you can still say you are against the war, and you can move and get a better job, right?

Instead it's a Island of Liberty than the majority of Humanity supports. NATO tried to isolate Russia, all they managed to do was prove how isolated the West is from the rest of the world.

Now to Kaliningrad: Germany does not want that city back in a million years. Germany is not an imperial power anymore. IT does not invade other territories, like Russia does. There is absolutely nothing to gain for Germany, beside a corrupt and run-down Russian city, that would need billions over billions to turn it into a somewhat functional place.

It’s honestly pathetic and humiliating for Russia, supposedly a great power.

Russians love taking all WWII USSR glory but keep forgetting they were Hitler's ally till 1941 and attacked Poland on 17th of september 1939. Their memory is very selective.

@@Blanka1100m Poland was Hitler's ally until 1939, and it preyed on Czechoslovakia together with Hitler, taking Ostrova for itself. It is not easy to understand why Hitler attacked Poland rather than sticking to the original plan of attacking the URSS together with Poland and the West. Part of it is Stalin's offer to tacitly back Hitler. That offer did not make Stalin an ally of Hitler (as the Molotov visit showed in late 1940). Churchill and others recognized this immediately. Stalin already expressed the idea in his geometry speech of early 1939 "we will not get the chestnuts out of the fire on Britain"s behalf". In other words, "Dear Britain, you got Hitler into Czechoslovakia against our will, so now defend Poland on your own."

Why did UK Veto an Independent investigation at the UN? AFU admitted that they shelled the place constantly during the entire time it was occupied by the Russians... I guess Ukrainian shells are magic and only kill Russians. Why was they press not allowed in the city for 4 days after Russians left yet all the "bodies" were still in place And we have the sattelite images of the main street with no bodies the day after Russians withdrew and then bodies laying in the street 3 days later. Then in the best military operation Ukraine has carried out in the entire war, an army of western - pro UKR journalists were marched through the theatre/streets.

@@sisyphusvasilias3943 On the contrary, satellite imagery DOES show the bodies while the Russians were present, and in the locations where they were subsequently found.

@@sisyphusvasilias3943 Point by point rebuttal: 1) The UN ALREADY has an independent investigation on Bucha. Russia's attempt to open 'another' serves no good purpose. Sort of like trump declaring a supposed independent investigation based on Giuliani's narrative 2) Yes, Ukrainians shelled Bucha. But, the bodies that were found died of bullet wounds, not shrapnel or being blown to bits 3a) I don't know about when the press was allowed, and when it was safe to allow them. Cite a source to substantiate that it was 4 days after the last Russians left and whether or not the town was booby trapped. 3b) OF COURSE the bodies were left in place. That is REQUISITE for investigating a crime scene. Had they been moved, you would cite that as suspect too. From a forensic perspective, a crime scene is NOT disturbed until the investigation is complete. A forensic expert can determine if they died where they lay or were moved after death, identify other wounds, such as signs of torture, determine quite accurately WHEN the person died 4) Your assertion that satellite imagery does not show the bodies while Russians were present is FALSE. twitter.com/i/events/1511068159691960325?lang=en www.france24.com/en/live-news/20220404-satellite-images-show-bodies-in-bucha-for-weeks-rebutting-moscow-claim www.themoscowtimes.com/2022/04/05/satellite-images-show-bodies-in-bucha-for-weeks-rebutting-moscow-claim-a77211 5) OF COURSE the journalists are supportive of Ukraine, just at journalists on the Russian side are pro Russian.

Well, Russia is not a Communist state at all you need to understand that, government uses Soviet past only in context of "great Russian history" and "great Victory" in order to help military propoganda. But in all other directions communists blamed in Russia like in EU and USA for freedom of word, tyranny, civil war etc. We have anti-communist propoganda even in our schools so we government uses it only in cases where they need it. Also we have real Marxist communists(that are not the ones that sits in Duma -our parliament) of course they dont support war, capitalism, and current regime. But it's a not a big group, and those are blamed by governmental "communists" and government as well as in your narions and government call them traitors, agents of America (as well as in GB and America they are called agents of Russia). Ah, and you asked how we see difference in nazims and all this shit, well most government supporters just saw Ukrainian nazis(thar really are in Ukraine) and believe that we fighting like in ww2 against nazims, the thing that we have same nationalists in every moment of our policy and government they don't care they believe in they country, and the Marxist communists saying like: " capitalism is always lead to facizm due to each country when have curtain level of income starts to use other countries and became a rival to the other great countries on market, and that leads to tensions and that leads to war (I'm trying to say about whole theory in one message there are more arguments)". So the difference they see not in tyranny or democracy but in production and earnings separation way in fasizm and capitalism they don't care about poor and education and other shit unless it makes you money. So Marxists and Leninists doesn't care if regime democratic or tyranny they look over market, and also they blame our government like: " we are the same country as Ukraine, we have oligarchs, we have free market, we have corruption, we have nationalists, so why the f are we fighting, we need to denationalize our country before do it with others (now you understand why are they called traitor's by those who support official government)

@@Antoniolavoisier1 Although I agree with you that not everyone supports this "Special military operation" nonsense. Especially with the long prolong war. Just out of curious, do you view Stalin as Fascist or Marxist?

@@KPPO200 well, i think that's the hardest question for russian communists. Because regular national patriots support him(for the same purpose as support red flag over this operation not as ideas support but as contribution to historical national pride he won Hitler, etc). But left community in Russia is very different they support and criticise different ussr regimes and leaders, most of us comes to thoughts that Stalins actions was inevitable but he was Marxist other think that he ruined some Lenin ideas and is not real communist, just tyran that taken power. Let me explain, first ones say that his actions were necessary because you know country was at civil war between liberals and communists (both sides taken bloody actions and if you not use hard measures to promote citizens for war and your opponent does you will simply lose war and there be a lot of blood but your blood and your comrades), also there were anarchists over Ukraine that were acting like gang, Germany fighting as ww1 opponent, alies making they sieges over north, east and south and many others that forced him to this actions. The same reasons Stalin supporters provide for other crimes like we had weak nonindustrial country after civil war and party cleaning/national departures/grain management was needed to avoid revolts, cities destabilisation and to prepare for next war, so they say he did everything to protect people. The guys who blame him say you know what arguments he lead country to hunger, killed democracy (may be you don't know but communists stay for democratic government like parliament and its leader), killed many people and was just fighting for the power not any ideas. If you asked personally my opinion i think it's in the middle of both, i dont think he cared only about his power because he wasn't use it for his own prosperity he just used power to arrange country he had good and awful achievements but his rule definitely was not Marxist as it was not even close to democratic and i think not facist because he didn't want to capture world market, make industrial colonies from poor countries, he cared about education, medicine, working spaces for all nations in USSR i think he was militaristic socialist tyrann that's best description of course i agree that he made crimes but i don't know what to say you how to avoid them, because if other party in civil war wins(central government) they'd kill as much people... It's very easy to criticise politics years past they rule when you see all the results.

@@KPPO200 also i suppose i need to explain why are communists connect capitalism with facizm. It's not the way west contries use it(only in a half) west countries mostly say about freedom of word, press and democracy difference between facizm and not facizm. i already mentioned that they idea is that when any country became great power it begans to influence the world in its own interests it may be like America that say about international law(and of course use it only in own interests invading countries, forcing poor countries to produce only law quality goods like their colonies, and when they need it they don't care about press, free market, etc), but also i haven't mentioned that when it cames to so called national interests free market countries come to governmental capitalism they can nationalise any industry they think is important for country or to make ruler of it industry oligarchs and even make war or sanctionize other countries to protect its own industry. So nazi Germany and facist Italy used this very strict governmental capitalism communists say, they could invade countries for the same reasons to get resources for their own people, not to help nations they invade (build schools, plants, educate people, etc that's for the word is the way communists explain their invasions if America came to Afghanistan and just established democratic leadership, also for some reason huge amounts of heroin started to come to "free market" from Afghanistan, the USSR wanted to build civil infrastructure and of course to establish communist leadership).

The soviets did not outlaw languages. Russia, no matter how autocratic, has been a country in which many nationalities survived for centuries. That distinguishes Russia not only from nazis but also from most central and western Europeans.

The Russia army is taking it easy in Ukraine they havent even mobolized their reserves yet and the expedititionary force in Ukraine is only a 1/4 of its contract soldiers force.

Because he's not a professional solder or a "kontraktnik".

When/ if at some point they could break free from Kremlin propaganda I believe they could integrate themselves more in the region, it would really be interesting to see Kalinigrad as an independent nation. Furthermore Russia would shorten their borders with NATO with about 500 km's, that should make Kremlin happy. I hope they will achieve independence some day (first of all, they must want it themselves, I'm not so sure they want it yet).

I'm afraid it could lead to civil war in parts of russian ex-empire as there are cities in east europe that seek revenge for gaining political freedom without monetary gains that was promised by the their leaders. Crooks and liers that wish to build utopia with religious zealots for example, but are minority nationally in poland for one instance. People like these also exist in countries like usa, but extremes are more socially accessible in parts of poland that wish to gain independence or make sure rationalists are never in control of law making. Soviet union and warsaw pact fucked alot of nations and people are still divided along religious fundamentalists and normal people, who have too much communistic ideals and opinions left to this day. Your "intelligencia" is seriously fucked up still and it will take decades for relatable left wing to be in existence. Until then you have to deal with possibility of your democracy ending without bloodshed like it did in other part of eastern europe like belarus, who I assume had real democratic possibilities in -91 and before. Talking about poland that has autocratic dictatorship in place and freedom of speech is curse word throws by socially conservative. Fixable but will take landslides to even get past possibility of being made unviable by socially conservative judges.

People talk a lot about some russian region suddenly declaring inderpendence. I'm not here to say if it'll make this region better or worse, I'll just say it's not possible under current conditons, nor was it possible 8 months ago. 1)Most of the population is russian. 2)There haven't been any actual mass protests. ( And even if there were - Kremlin wouldn't care. Kremlin wouldn't just let it go.) 3)They don't have their own developed econmy. 4) How do you even image Kaliningrad getting independence? Do you think Russia will politely ask if people living there want Kaliningrad to be its own country, and then Russia as democratic country (which it isn't) will gave Kaliningrad the independence they wished for?

depends on the perspective.

That's how propaganda works.

That's the beauty and genius of western propaganda, equal those of hollywood productions, it really makes you believe in all the lies from the west. People of Kaliningrad loyal to their country, and rightly so, is viewed as propaganda, as though they should be loyal to USA or UK :) Meanwhile US, UK have both been land grabbing throughout their entire existence (grabbing multiple continents even) and yet saw fit to condemn others, you really couldn't make this up.

Oh, shut up!

Kaliningrad District is a very underinvested and neglected part of Russia, treated as a great base for nuclear weapons and that's it, nothing more. The possibility of shopping in Poland, before the border was closed, was highly appreciated there ... But you are not right. In fact this area is very similar to most provincial Russia, in many places it is even worse (70% of Russians have no modern WC, 40% put sewage into the gutter under the windows or pour them through the window or balcony. Kaliningrad inherited at least the sewage system from the Germans).

Russia is a vast country, and even you've traveled to a small nation like Brunei Darussalam, you will find the same situations where you can never find ultra modern facilities in the districts far from the main city where you can find people living there are happy as though that time is always on their side. Good luck chump! 😅

Well it is so but the Russia se this as a war crime so what they do now is very dangerous if they attack they wil sure be wiped of the map so i would be careful if i was Russia here! And we wil obelirate the whole Kalingrad in 1 hour and Russia in 1 day or so, so i would relakse and do nothing.

Russia is getting stronger, there will be no collapse.

@@jacleena One thing to consider is that everything collapses, it is only a question of time. A second is that "collapse" does not mean it is destroyed. It can mean destruction, such as the Roman empire, but usually it only means that its current form changes. An example from current times is the USSR. While there are no guarantees that Russia will collapse it holds several of the signs; massive popular support of the elite and war means that the elite must deliver. This is how over-extension begins. In the case of Russia over-extension came quickly due to internal corruption of military funds for upkeep. The fallout of this alone is enough to begin internal purges and thus infighting. I would give Russia no more then a decade in its current form.

@@GnosticAtheist I would give the European Union no more than a decade in its current form.

@@lukasnummer1 That sounds like a pipe dream. While I would enjoy it, I do not see the collapse of the EU likely. However, the central powers want to expand it to have "tiers" of membership, so in a sense you are right. As a side note, I am not from the EU, I am Norwegian.

Y they could call it P-russia. But it will never come true sadly, Imperator Putler will never let this happen. And also most people in Kaliningrad don't want independence, why would they if they are all Russian. But what surprises me is they live surrounded by Poland and Lithuania, some of them on border could even travel relatively easy to Lithuania or Poland, and at least use to have right to transit Lithuania to get to Russia and back by car before the war. So people should see how Lithuania or Poland improved after leaving Russia influence, I'm kind a surprised they don't want it for they own region.

War is too expensive an undertaking for it to be over "ideals" - it is, and has always been, over resources. In earlier days it would be land (farmland) but theses days it is most often over fossil fuel or rare minerals. Yes, the leaders SAY it is to bring "democracy", "freedom" or to "eliminate" undesired political views but that is merely a way of glossing over the real reasons, a justification of the expense and loss of life.

No, it couldn't be that way 'cause fascist Germany had to pay Soviet people for all the atrocities it had commited in the USSR during the War. And to tell the truth, the compensation was too worthless compared with what they had done to our country.

@@swacks7960 Me too. And that's great :)

I think you should interview people of Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Palestine, Libya or the homeless people of USA. You have no idea what sadness is.

Do you really think Russians are low educated people? So YOU are bad educated. Maybe you prefer Ukrainian propaganda? They are great myth makers. For example, they say Ukrainians are the oldest nation in the world, it is 128 thousand years old. More than that, Ukrainians founded Troy and Christ and Atilla were Ukrainians. ) You can find it in their History textbooks.

The US is more communist than Russia has been since the dismantling of the USSR in 1991.

She means nothing unfortunately. We had communism in slovakia and 30 years after people will behave same. Not even realising that most of that communism was payed by petro dollar...

@@jacleena Well, then let's clear up what communism actually means? (because Russia is actually not a communist state) Communism is a form, where everybody should have more or less the same good life and people share things. And the leaders make sure, that things and goods arrive the people and no one enriches themself. But this is 100% NOT the case in Russia ! They stuck in "socialism" which is the form before you might reach communism..and that is when only a handful of people hold all the wealth from a country in order to redistribute it..but thatsecond part they forgot about and literally exploitng their own people. And in order to make them not realising it, you have to isolate that country from inside and build up a complete fake news world where you blame the west for the miss fortune in the own country so the the local people won't stand up against their regime. And that is what Putin and his gangster clan execute in perfection. I hope that educated you a bit more! Moral out of the story is: Communism can NEVER exist as long we humans are just humans and can fail, mean can be cruel and corrupt! I don't say the west is perfect but If I can choose between a corrupt west where I can at least still somehow vote , have free speech and get wealthy or chave to live under a corrupt regime which locks everybody down or kills oppositions and you have nothing in your fridge while the leaders own several hundred million dollar yarcht..I chose the west ;)))))

@@user-qy5io4ke9e I certainly wouldn't say that all Russians are uneducated.

And the Russians where NOT able to develope their own nuclear bomb..nope, they had to steal it from the west. Look, what does Russia really develop today? Planes? half of them crashing...chips? nope, any other hightec material..nope..they reduced themself to an commodity country and rely heavily on the west and China for any advanced technology .that's all what a failed state under gangsters like Putin can become..it started with Stalin...

And did you know that Poland looses better territory after second war, more and better than they got from germany , all taken by taken by USSR . And another thing, territory is not given by God or Engels but taken by sword at war. Germany looses this war and looses territory. That happens over and over from beginning of human race, every piece of ground is taken from someone by force. This territories for last 1000 years been in Germans, Czech, Swedes and Polish hands many times. Important is who has it now, today.

Как странно, что вы обливались слезами по изгнанным жителям бывшего Кенигсберга, а не по рекам крови советских людей , которые были пролиты в СССР во время войны... Этот город перешёл к СССР реше иями Постдамской и Ялтинской конференций в 1945 году по итогам Великой Отечественной (по-вашему, Второй Мировой) войны. Агрессор (то есть, фашистская Германия), вопреки своим ожиданиям, потерпел поражение, и совершенно естественно, что какие-то его территории должны были отойти стране-победительнице, то есть СССР. Ещё спасибо должны сказать, что так мало взяли. Это не покрывает и сотой доли тех потерь, которые понесла наша страна в этой кровавой войне.

Эти жители легко отделались - их всего лишь отпустили на "материк" - в Германию. Не расстреляли, не сожгли, как поступали их соотечественники с жителями нашей страны. Не угнали в рабство. А ведь они тоже орали "Хайль Гитлер!", как и все остальные, и если фашистская Германия в итоге напала на СССР, то в этом есть часть и их вины... Поистине наш народ слишком великодушен. Вели бы наши себя с ними, как фашисты с нами, - больше бы уважали. А мы вечно мечем бисер перед свиньями, вот они и борзеют. И вообще не надо было нашим войскам уходить из Польши, ГДР, Болгарии и пр. И воссоединять Германию было ошибкой. Пока стояли там наши - мы были "друзьями". Можно и без кавычек - было полно певцов и артистов из Польши, Чехословакии, ГДР, которые прекрасно относились к нашей стране и приезжали к нам, Барбара Брыльска, Анна Герман, Карел Готт - это только так, навскидку...А стоило уйти - тут же пришли туда американцы, и мы из друзей сразу стали " агрессорами"...Запад не понимает доброты, он уважает только СИЛУ.
