The Putin Files: Antony Blinken 

I have a friend who is vision impaired and I have worked with an association for Blind Folks. The information that I have been provided by Public Media on any of the former Colonial Power's media providers, seems to reflect a Bias that reflects the vast amounts of money dedicated to Endowments that fund production of information by the supposedly "Public Media". Just thought you could be helped by that thought?

How'd you type this?

@@BallyBoy95 magic 🤣

@@BallyBoy95 You need to demonstrate some respect for the rest of humanity......

​@@danielhutchinson6604 I wanted to know how a blind man typed a YT comment... You need to step off your high horse Mr Hutchinson.

Blinken is really clear, where I am in the west, I see what the Russian oligarchs are buying .. they all want safe homes outside Russia. Many E.Europeans do well in the west, I hope the countries can develop in peace and recover like the west after WW2

Bullshit. Everythjng Putin does America does more...american companies are the most corrupt in Africa and middle east

If you think everyone can be rich and every country can be rich you are fooling yourself. Even in wealthy countries the majority of people are just surviving.

Blinker is fluent is French too.

about half of Americans dislike this man so...

@@matthewschiebout7384 People like you are not rational.

@@matthewschiebout7384 nobody can be liked all of the time. You must at one point pick a side. This man and I and many many other choose the side of civilisation. The enemy can stick to Putin as much as they like. His narrative is one that leads to death and destruction.

He is a pos liar

No kidding. So smart for pbs to publish these...

You’ve been listening to the wrong things if you think it’s this one guy. Sorry.

Julia Ioffe's a lot better.

@@Paragon231 and she is an American journalist?

I actually heard nothing really new here. Some were maybe not paying attention when all of this was going on. It seemed obvious that Medvedev was never really running the show nor would he ever.

He's also a diehard neocon, who's responsible for the Ukraine debacle. All he and his senile boss had to do is to remove Ukraine's NATO membership off the table once and for all and stop arming and all other interference. Kiev. is Russia 's birthplace also and Ukraine got greatly aggrandized under Stalin (1945-47) and Ukrainian Khrushchev (1954). Ukrainian and Russian languages are virtually mutually understandable. The conflict between them is like a conflict between brothers, not unlike our Civil War. Blinken and Zelensky are but the progeny of the Bolsheviks.

Boom

And I like what I hear. He's very smart and this is such an enlightening interview.

realistic aproach

@@boogymonster7 he is a neoliberal warmonger, he started both the lybia and syria war.

@@TheBarca1889 I don't know if you know this, but he was only a deputy in the Obama Administration. Hillary Clinton and Obama himself are to blame for those fiasco's. Regardless, in both cases the Obama administration was smart enough to keep American Troops out of those conflicts.

Steven Tolbert, who played Gilbert on the Leave It To Beaver show was once very instrumental in making Frontline such a jewel. He may still be involved with the program.

@@tugger EXACTLY

Anthony blinken is a trader

This interview long before Russia invade Ukraine now it clearly shows why Putin decide to invade Ukraine.

@@MrManny075 If you were watching as the State Department did all they could do for 8 years, you might understand why Russia intervened? The Rhetoric of this nice Jewish Boy seems to sound like Goebbels? But the US spent $50 million taxpayer dollars to provoke Russia.

Clearly a propaganda when in 2014 they said Russia plus Germany combo means big threat for US Nato.

@@ssuwandi3240 The implication of Russia peacefully selling Gas to Europe, appears to leave the US out in the Cold. Nordstream 2 would make Russia capable of selling Europe 70% of the demand for Gas at reasonable prices. The US has available Gas reserves that would provide well over $200 billion in LNG sales annually. When you view the efforts of the US State Department as designed for any other purpose than promoting profits for a small number of Humans, you begin to notice a trend since Eisenhower pointed out the Military Industrial Complex. LBJ was informed that He had pissed away the contents of the US Treasury on Vietnam as a Colony, so His War on Poverty was unable to be funded. So LBJ did not seek another term. Carter claimed recently the USA is operated by an Oligarchy. The proof is staring Americans in the Face, the Propaganda appears to cover the facts. Yellow Cake anyone? Or are you still attempting to understand the Domino Theory?

@@danielhutchinson6604 well too bad you're still missing out the other puzzle. China also recently switched to cheaper LNG with Russia. You should know why none of West medias relayed this crucial world RE-Order use case. I guess at least Trump was trying to retreat the large part of overseas investments back to the homebase under his fiscal policies. China was never the enemy, just like Russia. Their getting rid off their own Deepstater on national TV was a positive signal.

These are the guys that do everything. It’s the politicians with all their “interest” where things go wrong.

He's another creep who's became very wealthy benefitting from Bidens foreign policy .

@@bengalbrown2834 US interests are not in the interest of much of the world. In the end he will always follow the party line regardless of his own views.

Everything being discussed during this taping regarding Putin reveals the deep expansive ground work that led to the invasion we are watching today in Ukraine. Why, when, and how did Putin decide to launch war on Ukraine? It didn't begin hours, days, weeks, or months before Putin acted on it. This was a Putin build up that begin many years ago. 😳

And very very manipulative. Hillary Clinton was the laughing stock of the whole European Union at the time. She would charge huge amounts of money for 15 minute meetings when she was Secretary of State. George Sorros was wreaking havoc at the time. And yes she had a hand in the Ukraine. Putin is as crooked as they come but these people are no better.

Putin has already committed genocide by 1999 in Chechnya;(

@@JeepCherokeeful genocide has a very particular meaning and misusing the term devalues it and takes away the ability to discuss the particular gruesomeness of actual genocide, trying to erase an entire race and culture from existence like China is currently doing to just about every non han chinese culture in their territory. You want to criticize the excess force in the second chechen war then go ahead but it is hardly a genocide. Russia was working with Chechen leaders who asked for and appreciated their help in wiping out islamic terrorists led by a Saudi. Russia would have killed every Chechen muslim if their goal was genocide.

The state department staff are usually the most competent. They have real dealings in diplomacy and aren’t blinded by partisan goals.

Except that they are total establishment BS

@@KingMinosxxvi what does establishment mean to you?

@@Shm00ly Establishment obviously means different things in different contexts. Here they are talking directly to secretary of state so it's fairly obvious. The establisment in general you could understand as institutional interests that don't go away. So you might be talking about the penatgon, or the CIA or the Military industrial complex..or you might be talking about families long in power (Nuland, Chaeney, Bush)...or you might be talking about a figure like Biden who (capatain credit card and the democratic architecht of the Iraq war) ....Unfortunately most msm (almost all really) not only in America but in the west has become essentially a megaphone for those entities because they are in bed with larger corporate entities and together they set the line for the media. Maybe you expect more from PBS But if that's the case why wouldn't you expect more from RT. (who by the way have had some of the best journalists in the world working for them)

Think about your statement. I respect it but I think he looks like a blank slate often because he is reading rehearsed lines.

Trump is a trash talker who could not bite and that weakening the US presence. But yeah in zero-sum game, the weakened US is favor by many countries as well.

Trump the disgraced, serial liar is a Putin puppet pushing the Russian agenda ... the ultimate traitor

I think Trump really wants the same narrative to survive as Putin. But he wants the system in the US to change, he wants to sell the US his idea of democracy, which is a plutocracy as in russia.

@@sgstraits7824 Trump was the only one keeping Putin in check. Keeping oil prices low kept Russia weak and poor. Seriously, you know jack shit.

@@dracoboomin6511 sadly you may be right

Ethical🤣

Trump's electoral victory was about Hillary's team's hubris and voter fatigue regarding the Clintons. Biden's electoral victory was a reaction to the chaos that Trump created. Neither Trump or Biden are good for the USA. We, the people, need to vote out all of these old dinosaurs in Congress and get constitutional amendments passed to enact term limits. The Boomer generation needs to retire and give the next generation a chance.

I like Presidents who don't allow the invasion of Ukraine. Unfortunately, your "high esteem" of people because they are accepted in DC orthodoxy doesn't mean much to the rest of the world. Can't wait to see Blinken's "sternly worded letter" when China takes Taiwan under this feckless US regime.

Yeah the Biden years are so much better and as Obama famously said "never under estimate Joe's ability to fuck things up". 😏

He hasn’t done well with negotiations with China

@@Slimjimmagoo you can

And yet they messed it up royaly .....by not supporting the Ukraineans. During Obama's admin Putin danced around him and did pretty much whatever he wanted to do, including lying to his face, which shows just how little respect Putin had for Obama, wars, taking up territories and taking down planes.... with civilians in them....

USA GDP is 23:39 trillion dollars but it has 31 trillion dollars in debt, the ratio gdp-debt is way over 100%

Simple answer my friend - Donald Trump’s infatuation with Putin.

Agreed.

You can count on Blinkon to not make America great again.

@@philiphorner31 You're entitled to your opinion. However, I believe Blinken's bridge-building approach has given the United States a much stronger strategic partnership with the world which allowed us to use incredible leverage in the current conflict. Now, with a united US and EU we can even tell China today: "you help Russia, we are going to shut you off too." This is only possible with a strong alliance that has 50% of world GDP as compared to China's 15%. It's hard to mess around when you're dealing with numbers.

i thought you guys asked the PORN LAWYER to run OH WHOOPS

Yea! Blinker for president

Biden reversed EVERYTHING Trump was doing, that's certain not "destiny". Unless "Destiny" is code for Joe.

Keep watching. It’s unlikely that ukraine will win.

@@currentaf8455 i guess putin played his cards well. he will win once more and the US will be the one falling down in the world ranks

I believe trump was made the same way-chaos and destruction but not smart as Putin.

He wants more than Ukraine, put it that way. There's another interview with one of his past economic advisers: spooky!

@@rickmacdonald5575 Russians hate Blinken and ridicule him as much as possible, which says a lot ( I tell it as a native Russian speaker who can read their shit )

I don't know. He seems so well versed that he should have prevented this. You can view his intelligence a ton of different ways. He's been thinking about today for a long time and he never thought about how to deescalate? I don't like that.

Where are we now? I struggle to think about how we got here. Mr Blinken is a person who may be able to solve this problem. It is a problem. Good luck.

How did Tony respond to the "talking to" he got from the Chinese? Like a wimp.

@@johnduarte1428 talk is cheap

I disagree. Blinken knows his shit for sure. But I don’t think he’s reaching his potential at all. Up till this point he’s just been somewhat mediocre.

Do you get distracted by STRING ?

@@mrttripz3236 well, considering that 5 years ago he has given a complete round up of what Putin wants (and does today as we speak) I think that stands far higher on any list of skills than mediocre

Putin's rules have been his own since 1999. He just dropped the veil

@@neilcarvalho8349 because of the same reasons all authoritarians fail - the reign of terror - makes certain that there is so much corruption- burying problems - that eventually the system fails on itself . A lot of that Military equipment has not been maintained properly - and is now failing when needed . No telling how much corruption plays a part - you know it wouldnt take much for a general to sell off - parts or falsify maintenance being done for some kickbacks . It is how these guys always fail - the Greeks call it Hubris

Now he sounds like a Profitt NOW - he saw RasPutler through unto the future!

Plus for Putin: generally, the more of his opponents who leave the country, the better. Minuses for Putin: their departure probably means a loss of productive talent and will intensify economic decline; some number of them will work to oppose him in ways that being abroad makes easier and more effective.

That number has significantly gone up since your comment lol

It doesn't work that way with modern dictators. When their population faces and economic crisis, the dictator will play the besieged fortress card and blame the "adversaries" for the crisis - and get the population even more consolidated around him. Especially his brainwashed military forces. Modern Russia can rot for decades like that.

Yup, somehow Blinken just skips how Putin's destroyed the private and independent media in Russia, how he established absolute control over the internal control, elections, etc. But at the same time he said they knew who Putin was, how liberal background he has coming from St. Petersburg. Laughable, if not the happening of the ongoing invasion and other terrorist acts on Putin's command. In my opinion just shows, how western politicians just does not understood Putin from the beginning, how they wanted to see bright future of Russia-West relations. Those politicians and leaders were manipulated, didn't try enough to stop him and now we have another tragedy ongoing in Ukraine because of this. Pretty shameful.

Masha Gessen - IMHO waste of time Julia Ioffe, and Vladimir Kara-Murza - both amazing, sharp and enlightening I recommend also interview with Yevgenia Albats.

William Burns interview also interesting.

Blinken stupid? I would say it’s more like dumber than a box of hammers. He sounds more like a warrior and a diplomat. NATO expansion is the cause of this whole thing and Blinken had a hand in that expansion so you can thank Mr. Blinken and Mr. Biden for the war in Ukraine, and possibly for the end of civilization altogether when Putin launches his nukes.
