Russia’s Military Buildup Around Ukraine: What Satellite Images Reveal | WSJ 

Well this aged well.

I still remember the days of the "war on terror" when they were saying "country vs country warfare would be a thing of the past"

I hope the situation between them will be better!

No - war in Ukraine - the people of Ukraine deserve a better life Нет - لا- حرب في أوكرانيا - الشعب أوكرانيا يستحق حياة افضل войне в Украине - народ Украины достоин лучшей жизни 🙏🙏🙏🦚🦚

Great picture of Jean Luc Picard on the analysts wall!

Correction: The Iskander-M has a range of 500km easily and is not very likely to be armed with a nuclear warhead because the missile is only a 1 stage system so you can’t really attach a nuclear warhead unless you take apart the entire missile.

A war would be devastating. Please fight eachother with words online, but don't kill.

‘’Courage taught me no matter how bad a crisis gets ... any sound investment will eventually pay off." - Carlos Slim Helu

Why ask Putin 'are you planning to invade?" When clearly the question asked should be "Have you planned to invade?"

Not just military tents. That’s an aid station

It's literally satellite photos of a Russian base in Russia.

اخيرا ...حرب بعيدة عن الشرق الاوسط

1:57 are we gonna ignore that Picard portrait in his background, unless it's some famous prince or general I'm mistaking for

Why are you failing to note the occupied zone in eastern Ukraine?

Welp. Better get my WWIII gear out of the bunker...........

Hopefully we get Emily✨ involved

Did they use blacksky to get these satalite images

Great analysis. One question, no ulterior motive: Why dont you show the NATO's military forces on the map? I mean... to get an objective overview of the situation.

Thank you for definiing the word multidirectional...

Am i the only one who sees the painting of Patrick Stewart in uniform at 3:57 on the wall of one of the corresponeldents?

Just let them fight it out the US doesnt need another war

Do people still take the words coming out from the pentagon seriously? Iraq, Libya, Syria, Afghanistan, now Ukraine....

interesting.. I hate to think where this is going my optimism is wearing thin..🤔

Why this feels like a WW3 Video Game

Why NATO still exits?

Am I the only one or does it not make sense for them to invade at this point in time? It seems like a psychological tactic and training exercise in the event Russia ever was to invade again or protect it's border with Europe

The music in the back ground is Psychic TV PEAK HOUR.

I am simple please tell me why sharing and helping your neighbors on a global scale is not an option ..too much greed amongst the wealthy seems to start wars 🌷

This time it appears to be real in position rather intention. So in the event of attack position will be important or otherwise they serve their purpose... intention: either way based on situation keep prepared

for a President who has been in Politics for nearly 50 years you would think he would have been able to help broker a peace deal.

Please Do The Same With Belloruss

If there is war, peace will follow...

O hey... 800 military basses round the world

Same experts that say Iraq has weapons of mass destruction 😂😂😂 you lot can’t help yourselves can you

So it begins

When Rocky IV is suggested. I worry!

one side is moving into position for war, the other side knows this but only wants to talk.

Romania just sitting there like: 😅

im trying to find this from google earth not seeing it

Interesting

Russia historically hardly uses soft power such as sanctions and geopolitical alliance building/maneuvering. Russia historically gets what it wants through military force aka hard power. The Soviets did it all the time, with Afghanistan, and eastern Europe. Now modern day Russia uses hard power when they invaded Georigia, Annexed Crimea, and instigated and funded civil war in Ukraine for the past 8 years. Russia only understands hard power, and we should have responded in the only language Russia can understand. As soon as Russia started placing troops on the border of Ukraine, America should've placed troops in Ukraine as well. Russia knows they'd lose a conventional war against NATO, invading would mean nuclear war which russia wont risk

The US should stop playing the innocent. Its getting boring...

Is that Jean Luc Picard in the portrait @ 1:57 ???

Props, most of them .

There are also tanks in the country of Moldova on the East missing on the map

Why western media isn't showing how nato forces are deployed along the Russian border

We don't have a chance

Why is this being narrated by a TikTok vlogger?

Stop it just stop it, out of anyone Russia is supposed to be there, but NATO isn't so why don't you explain how NATO violated time and time again moving into areas it doesn't belong in

Look at those maps,how close Russia is putting it's country to NATO's bases

Fake News, this is the satellite image of Canada's Karine Convoy. 😂😂

nah...

Seeing this video now is interesting It unveils many things about mainstream media

In a perfect world this issue wouldn't have escalated. NATO was formed to counter USSR. But NATO still flexes it's muscles, even though USSR is long dead (officially). It would have been wise to take Russia in the NATO after the fall of USSR. I'm not saying that what Putin is doing is right. I have three words for this "Cuban Missile Crisis". How is it different from that? It is always in the best interest to engage diplomatically rather that engaging on the fronts!

Show us ukraine forces buildup near russian border 🤔🤔🤔🤔

Ask the Arabs and their children about the horrors of war Iraq - Syria - Libya - Palestine - Yemen and the peoples of Africa.

Putin knew that #wsj will make a video analysis on it so he arrenged all this just to show off. 😂😂

I do not understand what these people from the west trying to say...Russia is not allowed to have troops in their own country or ?

those satelite images looks like a junkyard for me (kappa)

Its all about creating an arms race and selling weapons.....

To defeat Russia in a war would be disastrous to the whole world sir.

Can someone tell me why this conflict started again?

Peace ✌ not War, hate to see people get hurt or worse anywhere in the world. Payers

Reminds me of the Second Gulf War, where the US doctored images of Iraqi troops amassing near the Saudi border

Younger guy needs to up his books in the background game- the old guy is whooping him #ShelvesOnShelves

Russian needs to diversify its industry, manufacturing, etc.I believe they still rely on what they perceive as proven Soviet ways in a world that is moving way too fast.

Never believe these "experts"

The fact that those bases have always been there and that the President of Ukraine himself along with many other Ukrainian citizens said that a war is unlikely to occur makes this even more funny 🤣

It's US disrupting the region, not Russia. All of Russia's actions are reaction to US provocation.

Maybe the U.S. should build up and move his forces in Alaska?

Colin Powell had 'maps' too...

That is on Russian soil, not around Ukraine. Show us a satellite image of US troops all around the world to see who is the aggressor.

I'm surprised the facts are not delivered as fancy 3D-rendered Graphics in a Powerpoint Slide at the UN Security Council?

Oil at $100 a barrel its a business move

Russia does not attack like the US does. Hence the misunderstanding of the pundits in the west.

É impossível de acreditar que ainda há guerras…

The Prize Would Be Control Of The Black Sea Watch The Southern Front

is that Picard?

We the people. Are more concerned about our southern border.. We are sick of the WAR GAMES.

Everybody suddenly " forgot " the putsh of 2014 yet, a putsh isnt a little stuff

USA caused the original dispute and loaned Ukraine money to buy their own US armaments! Now they have lent Ukraine more money to buy more out of date armaments from the USA. USA do not want Europe to buy gas from Russia and delayed the installation of Nord Stream 2, because USA wanted to sell Europe its liquified gas at twice the price. (There are insufficient tankers or ports to provide all the gas Europe needs!) As a result, Russia increased sales of gas to China leaving Europe out in the cold and causing the price increase of gas worldwide! Then with all the silly war games around Russia's borders and now 100,000 troops on their borders, what do you expect Russia to do but to amass troops on their side? USA have started so many false wars since the second world war, won none and destroyed so many of the countries they invaded! USA needs to stop believing 007 films depicting Russia as the dangerous warmongers. 007 films need to concentrate in future as USA being the bad country. USA needs to worry about China since they are taking the world over by stealth! So could Russia be helping China to amass everyone's troops and armaments around Russia so China has a free hand to invade elsewhere! Boris annoyed Russia so much with his 'friends' from USA by sending troops and armaments for silly war games around Russia for months and supported the USA's attempt to slow down the Nord Stream 2 so much, that Russia sold excess gas to China. This is a major cause of the hike in gas/electricity prices! Boris you are an idiot. One day, we might have a government that is sensible enough to realise that the planet works better with international trade cooperation. Does Boris believe all the block buster films including the 007 films which portray Russia as a warmongering nation? USA start all the wars, destroy the countries they attack and loan the countries money to destroy them economically and then sell them their out of date armaments. USA is dragging us down, they are not friends of the UK! By whose authority has UK sent any troops/armaments etc to Ukraine? UK taxpayers money to threaten Russia that are not even threatening us but could Nuke us because of the UK government action!

I can see that Belarus is very suspicious.

War is horror, when will we learn? Sit & negotiate! Everyone pray.

wsj has own satellite to take photo which you don't find in google maps

US needs to stay out of it, Russia can and should do what they want, the US would not like Russian bases in the Bahamas or Mexico is the same here, Russia is not telling the US to give Texas back to Mexico.

civilians pretending they know other countries miliitary ops

its pointless for either of the sides to declare a war, no ones gonna benefit.

Dear ,,,western i have a question "where is iraqi nuke ?"

If war breaks out between the US and Russia, it is not only in air or sea, or land fight but it is also in space, satellites against satellites, or warplanes that go beyond the earth's atmosphere destroying enemy's satellites.

Notting will happen..

The problem with policy is honesty?

Russia: we don't want conflict. Ukraine: we don't want conflict. USA: No, you want.

American hypocrisy.

Phillip Karber is president of the Potomac Foundation and an adjunct assistant professor at Georgetown University, Washington, D.C. A former Marine, he worked with Gen. Donn Starry and the U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Command on Lessons Learned from the 1973 Yom Kippur War, and served as strategy adviser to former Secretary of Defense Caspar Weinberger. Not known as an expert on Russia.

America can build military bases around the world, but Russia can not build a military building in its own territory to protect their own country? When the Cuba crisis happened what is the USA's reaction? But When NATO want to take Ukrain and set missiles there, Russian reaction is understanding!

Any chance you can show where all the USA military bases around the world are. Perspective is important.

The most stupid thinks is to listen people from foundation because they represent the people who give more 💰!

War is Very Good for Business

Horrifying.

Military complex of US again active.....sell them weapons Yankees
