'Russia's gamble has not paid off' as Ukraine hits command post and coveted SU-57 jet |George Barros 

Imagine losing your navy to a country with no navy and being a "superpower" that can't establish air superiority against a country that barely has an air force.

I like this presenter. Speaks clearly and poses concise questions.🇺🇦🇩🇪🇬🇧

We come from the Ukraine and we are a determined people that do not know how to fail.We make good friends but terrible enemies. Russia picked the wrong culture to dominate and expect that they would ever give up.

Also enjoy watching Soloyov going beserk on his show when he can't even visit any of his many homes abroad. The guy is going insane by his own hand.

this guy is sharp

Very interesting interview. What I find amazing is how the Ukrainian military has adapted to use such a wide selection of different Western weaponry and tech, while using it alongside older Soviet equipment too. This is a testament to their dedication and ingenuity. Even Prighozin remarked on this ability, as it is a lot more difficult than it might seem. NATO troops have to cross train for years just to get used to each other's weapons. The Ukrainians started from scratch and have had to get used to everything from Tanks and IFVS to Planes, Artillery and sophisticated air defence systems. Incredible accomplishment.

It is better to say Moldova was occupied by the Soviet Union just like Ukraine, instead of saying it was a part of it. Soviet Union wasn't an Union, it was Russian Empire v. 2.0.

I like this guy, he's with ISW I think. He's very knowledgeable, straight forward, & up-to-date with his information.

This was really first class. Required listening. George Barrros superb.

Russians shouldn't play Russian roulette, apparently.

Kudos to the Ukraine navy!!

So. Ukraine launched three subsonic drones from someplace in Ukrainian controlled airspace where it crossed over 370 miles of Russian controlled airspace and the most heavily militarized area on the planet covered by what is supposed to be the most sophisticated integrated air defense network in human history. When they got to their target, they destroyed at least one and perhaps two of Putin's bespoke "fifth generation" SU-57 fighters as they lay on their heavily guarded airbase. At this point, the Ukrainians are just trolling. This would be like someone smuggling 40 kilos of methamphetamine through a TSA checkpoint.... in the belly of a live Beluga whale.

So I am confused. Is it normal or not normal to struggle against a nation you border for 3 years with no oblasts secured. A navy torn in half and 500k K.I.A. All by the poorest nation in Europe.

Damn the timidity of the US administration

Oh no russian trolls slept in and are late to the party. Time to dock their pay.

Russia is the most vulnerable country in europe. Thwir land is too large for them to maintain. Truly if Ukrain is allowed to use western weapon as it seem good to them without restriction Putin sould have gone by now.

George Barros gives what would normally be a highly paid briefing to powerful people and I am gald to listen in.

All these experts talk about Russia making gains as if they were guderian tanks in Poland. They have gained 25 kilometers at the most. At this rate they will be in Kiev in 10 years

He speaks well and makes sense

I'm sure there are many retired American f-16 pilots who are willing to fly for Ukraine, I did see at least one video interview of just that.

Once again the entire Rushn' military proves itself to be a complete and utter joke.😂

I have so many additional questions I would love to get Mr. Barros' opinions on. I hope he will become a more frequent guest.

You know your army is a joke when you have to pay people to claim you're winning a war when you aren't. Rusha' is a joke😂😂😂

The Russians have a “capable Air Force?” We thought they had a capable Navy also!

Allies need to ramp up training programs, no doubt.

The US must remove all weapons restrictions

Very informative. Could listen to this for hours.

Ukraine should never have given up their Nukes to those Russian AHs. .

This is the Best Ukraine Info.

the reality : Moscow horde´s war record :- 1856 defeated by Britain and France 1905 defeated by Japan 1917 defeated by Germany 1920 defeated by Poland, Finland, Estonia and all Baltic states 1939 defeated by Finland 1969 defeated by China 1989 defeated by Afghanistan 1989 defeated in the Cold War. 1996 defeated by Chechnya 2022 defeated by Ukraine WW2 won USA/Britain , meanwhile Stalin's officers were shot or sent to the Gulags. Millions went to the Gulags, including Solzhenitsyn Moscow's only victories come from invading smaller countries :- a) Hungary 1956 b) Czechoslovakia 1968 c) Moldova 1992 d) Georgia 2008.

Barros is new to me. He seems to really know what he's talking about.

If Ukraine just targets the Russian rail system, would this not stop virtually all Russian actions to a large extent. ?

Excellent stuff - articulate and informative

Really appreciate Alex (+Times) & George for this analysis. All the best.

Good interview,

Excellent interview

Putin goes KaPUT?

great conversation. Thanks

I like this George guy. I can’t but think we’re getting it pretty straight.

Excellent analysis

At the current loss rate, when will Vlad The Failure run out of armour and artillery?

Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦 ♥️

I am so impressed with Ukraine. They are determined people. They are beating a Country who is considered a SUPERPOWER in the world. It is a honor to support such a country.

Russian ships have gone to Cuba to pick up a hold full of combat pedal cycles for the front line

Putin has said he never has any intentions to attack a NATO country but he also said he was not going to attack Ukraine, so your cred is not so good Mr Putin

Good conversation 👌

Russia forms a new Army Group: Army Group Clown. This groups consists of 4 three ring circuses with at least 40 elephants and 600 donkeys. LOL

Every single expert interviewed on this channel has the same message. Russia is losing. Putin is finished. Total victory is around the corner. Just hope this week it becomes true.

WHAT YOU ARE SAYING IS THE TRUTH, IF SOME PILOTS FROM OTHER COUNTRIES WILL HELP UKRAINE,

Why is Russia being permitted to decimate civilian non combatant’s in the Ukraine and Ukraine is not permitted to retaliate in like? Why is Ukraine being punished and limited in this way. They are not the aggressors.

Su-57: only 22 operational copies. (Sorry: 21).

There must be a reason Ukraine is not hitting rushas energy infrastructure.

Excellent piece. Thanks.

This was a Great in-depth look at what is actually involved in this criminal act that PUTIN has led RUSSIA into this unjust war😡 I've subscribed 💪✅ PRAYING FOR UKRAINE 💪

❤Ukrainian ❤

Putler would go broke in 5 minutes in Las Vegas.

Honest question, why would ukraine expend valuable long range precision munitions on putting craters in runways? Can't they be patched in a day or so? That's a lot of firepower for 24 hours respite. There must be better strategic targets than runways :o

the ruzzians know they can always create effects on the ground as long as those effects are achievable - huge cargo 200 for example. Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦 from 🇦🇺

Russian military are leaving Crimea, not certain what's happening with the civilians.

Moscow next

Not just pilots and airframes are essential but ground crews are critical in keeping the planes in thr air.

Pressing "volunteers" out of every institution was also the force generation model used for the Afghanistan adventure during the 80's.

Anyone know why they always seem to play a chunk of the middle of the interview at the beginning? That’s not how RU-vid works? Feels disrespectful of my time.

Putler loses again, he’s so like his chum donald with all the losing.

Times Radio is my source for proper news [may my rebellious ancestors of 1774 forgive me], far better than the usual choice in The States of Right-Wing Propaganda and edutainment channels. Times radio is one of the best on the net because it is not completely focused on one topic as some otherwise excellent internet sources are. The presenters are well prepared and are able to push for explanation or challenge questionable assertions. One show, and one presenter are famous for grilling interviewees with intensity! Keep up the good work!

We must see the economic, technological and military “power” of Russia in perspective. Russia is indeed a huge country in square km, but only has (a declining) 144 million inhabitants (Mexico 128 million, Japan 123 million). This is about 30% of USA or Eurozone. The GDP of Russia however is only 4% of the GDP of the Eurozone + USA, this is equal to the GDP of the small countries Belgium + Netherlands. And less than the GDP of the state of California. Relatively (per capita) the GDP of Russia is very low. Beside that the economy of Russia has signs of a 3th world economy. Half of the income is coming from oil & gas. Based on this, Russia isn’t a world power. And for sure, it isn’t a economic power. This is the reason they can’t build up and maintain a big army. The army they have is far beyond normal proportions in relation to their GDP. This hurts their budgets and prosperity permanently. In this perspective, Russia is just a dictatorship with a huge superiority complex and dangerous megalomaniac dreams. The path they chose shall be and will be their downfall.

Ukraine is slowly eliminating the Russian radar defence systems and will be in a good position to unleash air power later in the year?

Facinating interview

The Ukrainian's have certainly shown how to fight against a conventional force... What should we take away?

Now wait, is everyone forgetting about the A 50 and the fighter jets destroyed on russian territory by us Patriot missiles? I guess so, no mention. Get informed experts please.

3 day invasion 😅😅😅😅

Funny thing is it might not pay off for us, putin just might press the button

SCALP fired from a Mirage at 40,000ft would have serious reach into Russia.

Because "one person" is sick, half the world suffers !!

For starters, the Russians do not gamble. On top of that, their armaments seem to work whereas NATO equipment is underperforming, viz. withdrawal of Leopard, Challenger and Abrams tanks.

Putin is becoming quite laughable. When I first heard of the SU-57 I just went into this huge laugh before realizing this is not meant to be funny with such destruction and lives lost.

Mirage will be able to fore Scalp/Storm Shadow, Hammer glide bombs and perhaps even Meteor long-range air-to-air

Aid was delayed thanks to Trump.

War should be illegal

Who is in control of the Zaporizhzhya power station?

Why can't they use contract pilots or pilots and ground crew employed through a PMC ??

George Soros always has a substantial and well-informed insight into the current state of the Ukraine war. This interview is right up with his best! Thanks for the post.

It’s crazy that you all believe this propaganda 😂

Why do they continue to keep valuable millitary equipment in Crimea where it can be hit with western weapons without restrictions?

' it won't happen overnight, but it will happen'.

It is still a bit questionable how long Russia can keep recruiting volunteers. The recruitment payments are skyrocketing, when they started that crypto-mobilization they paid about 200,000 rubles to someone who agreed to sign up and now you can see 1.5-1.6 million rubles. And it is not that ruble fell 8 times.

🇺🇦❤💪👍🇬🇧👍💪❤🇺🇦

Let's hope Putin, never finds, a Georgy Zhukov, 🤞🤞🤞

Why is the expert only mentioning pilots getting training in US, they are also getting trained in UK and Denmark.

Wise men say, only fools Rush In. . .

gotta be a monster to win

what's the latest on Vovchansk ?

Peace.......Peace.......Peace.......Anyone. Sit down and come to an agreement.

@ListenToTimesRadio You need to show us on the MAP where each of the places talked about ARE, WHEN you mention them.

Thanks for this. I love your coverage of ukraine. Your politics are definitely left wing and insane but hey war coverage is solid

time is not on our side its on his

Significant operational reserves? They may have reserves but what are they ?

Excellent coverage….guy looks like Johnny Depp. 👀

George Barros is getting better at talking about this war. He's less reserved. More pointed in his opinions. Calling the Russians out a bit more. Good.

I thought the 'hititng the SU57' story turned out to be nonsense.
