The West is on the Path of Self-Destruction | Nicolai N. Petro 

Free Julian Assange, never forget.

N. Petro: "Everyone can see that the President of the United States is deteriorating physically and is probably on the verge of senility. Anybody can see that! Yet we have major American television programs, personalities and networks who say: "no, no, the opposite is true... the opposite is true". And people look at this, and they say: 'this doesn't make any sense" and they turn it off. 💯

Russia did not invade Ukraine. Russia is liberating independent republics in the Donbas region.

Russians are great chess players ...and good fighters too❤❤❤

What an excellent talk. I love it how Nima gets great guests, asks the right questions, and listens without interupting.

Nima is the best interviewer on YT He asked to Pepe Escobar what would happen if BRICS add Palestine to their bloc. Brilliant 🤩

You’re on a roll Nima!!!

As a French, I can say that Mr Petro is absolutly right about what's going on in Europe, in general and in France in particular. We have a man, here, François Asselineau, who's trying to make French people to understand the reality but it is very difficult, because of recent history and of the French medias. Thank you for this interview.

1:00:57 That final statement, that the US doesn't just *have* a military-industrial complex, it *is* a military-industrial complex, reminds me of the symbolism towards the end of the 2001 videogame, Metal Gear Solid 2. The main character is running around a large marine decontamination facility called "The Big Shell", established approximately 30 kilometers offshore from Manhattan. He's looking for a dangerous new weapon called "Arsenal". He later is told that he's actually "standing in it", because the entire facility is just meant to camouflage it. A related theme is later developed, where the main character has the shocking epiphany that everything about the way he's been socialized, educated and informed from childhood onward is all part of the process of state manipulation for political and military purposes. He then has to reflect on what it means to him to live for his own purpose.

Nicolai N. Petro is, together with Glenn Diessen, Michael Hudson, Ernst Wolff, Grace Blakeley and Joti Brar on my "Top Tier Analysts"- List. Very nice interview.

I remember the 1960s and 1970s, as a young student and teacher in India, the US sent us books, provided research funding and supplied much-needed grain. In other words, it used soft power to build and maintain support. Of course, it also established military alliances, and, yet, we had a positive view of the US. As a Canadian citizen, getting close to 80, I don't hold that view. Today, the US leadership has given up on soft power, become militaristic and, most importantly, is comprised of people who are arrogant, callous and dishonest, but also ignorant, pretty stupid and self-absorbed. Despite repeated defeats including and since Korea and Vietnam, they persist is following the same failed course.

The ownership group has been in charge of Europe for a long time. "First, we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin." They did. That was a century ago. You know who they are... Keeve was a recent speedbump. They took Babylondon centuries ago. They took Moscow and lost it. They won't get it back. Europa: The Last Battle.

US is a military complex but I think it's more financial than industrial. I think the financing and economics is the point, not the purpose.

What an insightful, intelligent analysis from Petro. Why can’t we have people like him manage our affairs?? Why do we have to have all of these power hungry dimwits in the west??

When You are Bent on Ruling The World, there is No Compromise!

A clear non-rambling analysis thank you great show once again

Great guest! Hope to see more in the furure.

'GREAT !' 😎👍

Good afternoon from Brasilia-Brazil!

Thanks for monitoring my comment YT

Excellent presentation.

Most excellent show.

It's gotten to the point where we can't even believe what we see with our own eyes!

Good Afternoon from Ontario Canada 🇨🇦

I listened to the entire interview, and was surprised this professor outlined how things will unfold in Ukraine to the point where he had everything figured out. Sadly we know predictions rarely match actual outcomes.

Great video Nima R Alkhorshid

Thank you Nima! Love your work. Greetings from Holland 🌷

This genleman illustrates in a perfect manner the incompetence of the main part of our scolars. How do you want to have educated students with these kind of professors????

Thank diversity for our problems.

Hitler rode in on the trust of centrists, Where has this ever been different!?! Inviting extremists to the table as active observers is one thing, but giving them power normalizes extremism

Amen🙏🏻

so much common sense, but way above the heads of power/money obsessed majority of western states and governments........and entertainment dominated populations at large

No offence guys but this is like listening to the argument about the arrangement of the deckchairs on the Titanic

As Petro pointed out Europeans, especially Finland, Sweden, Estonia, Lithuania, Poland and Latvia are all calling for Ukraine to return to colonial status.

Key word is claim!

I am still stunned the EU is conducting such a self-sacrificing hostile policy toward Russia and China. Then I heard they used to flog drowned swimmers because swimming was illegal. Such a ridiculous way of thinking would naturally prevent adaptation. The result in the current situation is self-impoverishment.

Pointless for me to point out that genuine negotitations are completely out of the question. Putin knows this, hence talk of Odessa being Russian etc. My point - only a new Ukrainian governent, not Azov type, but one understanding there can be no negotiations is capable of negotiating with Russia ! (Russell's Paradox perhaps). Such a government can only exist after Russia has destroyed Ukrainian military and infrastructure and imposed its own government (the one it's not going to negotiate with!) Sounds twisted perhaps but less so than how current opposing forces could get within million miles of negotiations. Negotiation is something proposed by well meaning liberals on RU-vid channels in line with endings to greek tragedies where an ending appeared out of nowhere and needed no logic to end the play.

political human will make choice of government for other people; can separate from with divine will unity central authority, each person follow God's leadership

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO NOOOOOOOOOOOOO NOOOOOOOOOOOOO

How likely are NATO and Ukraine sitting down to have a dialogue with Russia now?

On the Path ? I would say it hit the wall some time ago.

Most people that I know do not any longer blame Russia, this man is talking BS

🙏🏿🌹 YHVH...be with you!!! 🌹🙏🏿

Once upon a time, America produced most of what the world consumed. That was before the economic rise of South Korea, Japan & China. Now it seems, all America produces that the world wants are movies & weapons.

Sorry Mr Petro, most Europeans, and I suspect Americans, don't gaf about what's happening in Ukraine (although they should!) most are far more worried about their safety, and the effect on their standard of living, and society, of the importation of 1000s of black African men (into Europe), and those crossing US's southern border

Please stop asking the same questions to every guest. Its not very useful or interesting to simply note the small differences between their perspectives. It might be better to select different questions for various guests based on their field of expertise.

Kiev in threeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee days 😂😂😂

This guy?! An intellectual lightweight with no legitimate sources or capacity to analyze data? Thanks but no thanks.

Political Scientist ??? LOL !!!!!

The ouroboros of aWARerica is clearly stated in their local actions which totally matches their forien policies 🤮 🪱 #RatSnake ✅

A great look at why I am buying Bitcoin. The dollar is toilet paper. Nayib Bukele is doing quite well in El Salvador.
