@@ameame32 Presumably the same reason Russia wants to expand west. Whoever expands the farthest has the advantage in a theoretical war. Ironically though, Russia is providing plenty of motivation for said eastern european countries to want to join NATO. After all, that's the reason Russia can get away with attacking them, they're not in NATO.

Honestly, I don’t know what to say. Words can never convey the horrors going on in Ukraine today, and I never expected these events to pass. I began making this video 5 weeks ago and I genuinely was not expecting the invasion to take place a few days ago. Once it did, I struggled with whether or not I should still release this, and ultimately decided that it still offered valuable perspective and went ahead. My heart and full support is with the Ukrainian people, and the Russian people who did not want this war. слава україні!

Good information but a bit slanted towards the Ukrainian side. There is no mention of the fascist elements that took over Ukraine from the 2014 color revolution. There are laws that prevents Russian from being spoken among Ukrainian. If Ukraine consider Crimea part of Ukraine, how can they take away a fresh water for over 2 million residents? Not in the mood? It's a war crime. NATO isn't a pacifist block. It has engaged in invasions after USSR collapsed. I hope the Nebula video is more balanced on why Putin behave the way he does instead of for the glory of the old days. He is trying to protect the best interests of Russian citizens which is why he is popular in Russia.

Many russians have family and friends in Ukraine. Wanna true? After defeat in the Cold War, the USSR broke up into 15 US colonies. And the United States has been pitting us against each other for 30 years. Putin was forced to start a war because Ukraine was planning an attack (NATO had been supplying it with weapons for this since 2014), and there was even talk about nuclear strike. Russia had no other choice. Ukraine is a victim, but of American occupation, not of Russian aggression.

It could never join as Ukraine has its own internal conflict and corruption, so first and foremost- US needs to drop any offers of Ukraine joining NATO. A similar agreement to the Minsk 2 agreement is the best we have to solving this.

The US State Dept (filled with former Eastern European Jewish refugees) and the US military industrial complex who for 30 yrs (since the fall of the Soviet Union) have indulged themselves to expand NATO at all costs, forcing all former Soviet republics to submit themselves with the threat of coups and toppling their Democratically elected governments at will. The latest one being Kazakhstan this January. Earlier in 2014, it was Ukraine. Before that in Georgia. Next on the list is Belarus and Kazakhstan. All in the hopes to encircle Russia, place nukes close to Moscow to counter Russian hyper-sonic delivery capabilities and neutralize Russia military superiority in that region. Unless US/NATO expansion is halted eastward and Russia's security concerns are taken seriously and not dismissed with the usual US arrogance, things will only escalate. US war establishment will keep constantly poking the Russians to enrich their coffers. Putin's rational and measured actions pertain to the Donbass region where the CIA trained (arms supplied) Ukrainian neo-nazi militia are committing genocide against Russian speaking civilians in that region of Ukraine. For 8 yrs, Russia has been pleading with Ukraine to abide by Minsk agreements and no attention was paid to it by Ukrainian puppet government installed by US/Israel and flanked by NATO vassals. Now exhausting all options, Putin has finally drawn a red line and took action to secure the lives of ethnic Russians in the Donbass region. For any concerns regarding unilateral actions by Russia, read the US 'Monroe doctrine' on how it set the stage. Imagine the Russian and China start placing their military assets in Cuba Lain America. The US does everything unilaterally, whenever it pleases and wherever it wants. Does Yugoslavia ring a bell and creating a Kosovo? It will make sense why Russia is always on guard with the constant US expansionism impulse under any pretext. You can fool the western public using misinformation, disinformation, fake news and decades of carefully choreographed Hollywood propaganda from childhood. But facts are facts and it rings louder eventually. US establishment with its usual media propaganda and on the ground CIA operations wanted to make sure that Russia gets dragged into Ukraine and other wars in order to effectively place sanctions on it and cripple the Russian economy so that a weakened Russia can be brought into submission and allow NATO to expand to their borders and eventually into Russia itself to oust Putin, their penultimate enemy before taking on China. While the US global dominance declines rapidly, it will get more and more reckless and desperate to create conflicts everywhere to present itself as the solution. The US dollar hegemony is cracking immensely and the other big powers are getting ready to take action at the appropriate time. Until then, the US will engineer as many new conflicts as possible with its global peers while the situation at home gets worse and worse as the quality of life for ordinary Americans goes down significantly.

@ra9097
@ra9097 3 месяца назад
A very stupid and superficial analysis. Especially when you consider that its main focus is on mineral reserves in Ukraine, but the level of these reserves is hundreds of times lower than Russia already has. And no analysis is needed here. There is a simple and well-known expression - "NATO's expansion to the east." Ukraine's withdrawal from the USSR was declared with guarantees of non-accession to NATO. And at the first talks in Istanbul, Russia had only one condition - not joining NATO. At that time, there was no question of annexing new territories to Russia (except for Crimea, which had long been annexed). The language factor is generally ignored. But most of the population of Ukraine spoke Russian. But the author prefers primitive fantasies about shale gas, the profitability of which is generally questionable. Especially when the country has the largest reserves of normal gas in the world.

But the "end of history" never actually occurred because neoliberal policy adoption has been lackluster at best in Asia since they were given time to watch its failure in South America. What we're seeing now has very little to do with military or colonial expansion, but instead resource management as a consequence of western interference during the maidan revolution. Had that never occurred, Russia and Ukraine would have likely reached equitable deals on gas exploration ages ago.

@@TropicalPriest the USSR never fell. It only transformed. And it transformed into something horrific, with even more blatant lies, with outrageous hypocrisy on display. Putin is a former KGB agent and a lot of his gang mates can be traced back to USSR. The dictatorship never left, Russian people never had a chance to voice their opinion and be heard. '91 started a mad dash to the finish line (which was indicated by the presidency/how hard you can squeeze the public after it got the taste of freedom), this is when the true nature of elites became very apparent. Putin won, whether by being lucky or purposefully getting close to Eltsin, it doesn't really matter now. The man holds the entire country hostage for over 20 years, strips it of everything valuable, plays the emperor: just as he was taught under the sickle and hammer. He will NEVER do or propose a productive or peaceful solution to a problem, because he was brought up by a language of violence and power.

Ложь. Причины войны в имперском поведении Запада. После распада СССР Россия стремилась объединиться с Западом на равных условиях, но Россию Запад отверг. Более того, стал расширять НАТО на Восток к границам России, хотя обещал этого не делать. Расширение НАТО сопровождалось распространением военной инфраструктуры на восток, а после 2014 года была сделана ставка либо на присоединение Украины к Североатлантическому альянсу, либо на размещение на ее территории военной инфраструктуры США и их ближайших союзников. При этом НАТО как институт создает колоссальную иллюзию безнаказанности у младших союзников альянса (а это все члены блока, кроме Соединенных Штатов), что сильно ограничивает дипломатические возможности самих американцев. Это геостратегическая сторона вопроса. Запад организовывал свержение неугодных ему режимов в соседних с Россией странах с целью ослабления влияния России. Запад препятствовал передачи России современных технологий, сотрудничал в бизнесе на неравных условиях. Россия для стран Запада - это третьесортная страна, с которой не стоит считаться. Про Грузию тоже ложь. Война в Грузии началась с нападения Грузии на неподконтрольные им регионы (это уже доказано на международном уровне) и только после этого Россия ввела свои войска. До этого Запад много лет вооружал Грузию, готовя к военному конфликту с Россией. Все это видео одна ложь, как и вся политика Западных стран

На Западе таких ооочень много, поскольку образование в среднем там хуже, чем в России. Подобные ролики красиво и правдоподобненько сняты, только несут вот эту ложь их западной пропаганды. На самом деле основной рупор управления миром находится в США, которые посадили все западные страны на иглу своих кредитов, практически все высшие эшелоны власти в странах Европы - марионетки США, безропотно выполняющие их волю. А там где нет марионеток, они очень быстро организуются путем гос. переворотов. В США есть две элиты - либеральная (текущая) и консервативная. Либеральная (глобалистская) элита там давно у власти, и их цель - развалить Россию, поживиться за счёт её ресурсов, договариваться они не хотели и не хотят. Консервативная элита как раз за рациональный подход, выгодные сделки, за то, чтобы договариваться с Россией и признать её положение в современном мире. Обе элиты против России, но вторая более сдержанна и рациональна, и с уважением относится к противнику, способна идти на переговоры, если это будет выгодно. И вот сейчас внутри самих США идёт борьба этих двух элит, и чем она закончится мы не знаем.. Может быть всё, что угодно, вплоть до гражданской войны. Финансовые возможности США не безграничны, гос.долг достиг невероятных размеров, кризис внутри страны нарастает.. Я думаю, если они хотят избежать катастрофы, то в итоге им всё же придётся поменять курс и договариваться на равных. Подобных оболванивающих роликов по итогу тоже станет в разы меньше.

This is mostly about Russia wanting to control its former colonies and feeling weak as many of them drift away from Russia. Russia has seen its territory and influence shrink to its smallest in centuries. NATO is a defense pact and would never attack Russia in an offensive attack (when has a nuclear nation attacked another nuclear nation?). NATO would only fight for defensive purposes. Russias concern is that it cannot use force or the threat of force to control/influence any nation if it’s part of NATO. That is why he fears any former Soviet colony joining NATO Since it means Russia will have lost almost all influence and control over it. Furthermore, many Russians including Putin (confirmed it in the speech when the invasion started) have a belief that Ukraine belongs to Russia or the Russian people. So it is even a bigger interest of Russia to control Ukraine thus prevent it from joining NATO or EU.

For Europe, energy independence is just not feasible. If Europe as a whole started building nuclear power plants (the fastest, cheapest way to get off fossil fuels), the demand for uranium would boom. Kazakhstan is one of the biggest exporters of uranium and is also another ex-Soviet Union country. If Europe went truly green (solar energy for example) they would still need to import the materials to build large scale solar panel fields and the demand for these materials would be so high that basically it would be the new oil. There's just no winning for Europe. There's a reason why historically Europe has been at war in one way or another for the majority of its history - lack or imbalance of resources.

They used that call during the second world war, when shot Soviet soldiers and support Hitler. Next. Shale gas is one of the reason but not like you say it. Shale gas there are rest of the world but why Europe does not extract it? Because it does not safe in ecological terms. But Ukrainian government had choice: do this (side EU, who interested in this) and just side with Russia and get extremely low price of gas. Yanukovich chose Russia, but the EU supported the pro-west revolution. But it was not only pro-west, it's anti-russian. And Russian there is not about country, it's about nation. Why: because Ukraine is international region of USSR. People in Donetsk and people in Lviv even speak different languages. And people from Donetsk, Lugansk, Crimea region supported old government you call "pro-russian". When EU and USA supports their anti-russian revolution like in Libya what this people do? Yes, they separate from Ukraine back to Russia. When you say "Russia occupied" you call people which decide to return to Russia occupied, but country which cut them water you call the country under Russian aggression, really? This is the reason why we are dying at war. Because you think it's okay, it's only Russia needs oil and you agree with support of Ukrainian regime and they believe they can attack Crimea and Donbass region. Crimea is Russia. I work in Crimea, they are my friends and my family. But you, you think you are so kind by writing nazi calls and thinking it's okay when someone do ecological disaster for people who "occupied" by country who helps them. You think it's okay to write about horrors in Ukraine and nothing about horrors in donbass region. And you may think I'm trying to blame you. No, you are trying to be objective, I see it, but you see the situation from far and you even don't know "слава Украине" is nazi call. But how you see it shows why we really must to stop nato. And yes, we don't know the war. Why? Because we are dying to and our cities bombed too. If you wanna peace just say no need to support the war.

The whole strategic essence of Ukraine and Crimea is here: 16:38 - 17:03 (except Natural Resources) Keep in mind that 6 countries (+ Abkhazia) have access to the Black Sea. Of these, three countries are members of NATO, and two more countries want to join. + ships of either the US Navy or the British Navy regularly loom in the Black Sea. Russia really wants to send them home. History shows that when the Ottoman Empire owned Crimea, it dominated it. And Russia does not want NATO domination in the Black Sea.

It is important to understand that Russia is not acting for its own financial gain. Look at it from a different perspective, we are ready to sacrifice both people, who are few, and the system, exchanging Communism for Capitalism, just to avoid war. Russia stands for the development of humanity, and many countries understand this - Africa, China, Brazil, India, Saudi Arabia, etc. Look at Libya before the civil war and after, is someone going to help it stop the conflict and start developing? For some reason, America is not engaged in ending civil wars, most likely because it itself is actively engaged in internal confrontation and has contradictions.

Ибо объективностью тут и не пахнет. Как и попытками рассмотреть ситуацию с обеих сторон, проанализировать, разобраться. С таким набором клише в голове, можно просто сказать, что Россия - это все про зло и все плохое, а вот НАТО - это про добро и все хорошее. Не буду перечислять тут ляпы и откровенные неточности, но здравомыслящего зрителя должны были насторожить такие моменты, как "добрые" Шелл и Эксон, которые так стремились помочь Украине развить добычу ресурсов. Еще бы сказал, что на благотворительных началах. Про Бурисму и ее стейкхолдеров забыл почему-то упомянуть. Ну а риторика про то, что НАТО, само собой, отвергло предложение России на отказ от продвижения на восток, ибо, Россия - это же про плохое, а НАТО за мир и процветание....

Polish civils are very determined to help. In cities and villages near to the border pepole are even using their own cars to deliver supplies for Ukrainian pepole. Also we help in more creative ways, for example public railway (PKP) organized special transport for wounded Ukrainians to take them to our hospitals and gave Ukrainians free tickets, so they don't have to pay a cent for evacuation. I also really admire determination and bravery of Ukrainian pepole. Many Ukrainians traveled to Poland to work here. Many of them immediately returned to defend their homeland immediately after invasion begun. They chose this even when they could safely wait out the invasion.

Finally, a neutral and unhysterical examination of the issue, something that is apparently beyond mainstream media these days. Thank you for that. Not sure I believe a video about the Russia/Georgia war would get demonetised though.

Yeah, I liked the video a lot, but that condescending segue into monetisation left a bad taste.

You can't have that in the media, otherwise people won't be as supportive of any possible aggression towards Russia. Doesn't mean that what Russia is doing is right, but it becomes more understandable in the eyes of people, leading to more apathy.

That was a subtle and clever transition to the advertising part trying to convince the viewers to subscribe to the other "pay - to - view" provider...it wouldn't be demonetized or anything... it's just "go there, pay the fee if you want to see more"...

Sadly, this is biased. Just MSM is so much more biased that if you aren't aware of all the facts, this looks unbiased.

@@somedominik9036 Plus it really does makes sense when you look into it geopolitically. There's no guarantee that the relations between the West and Moscow would ever warm. Western presidents have always vilified communist leaders such as Putin and Xi. Due to the cold relationships between the countries this video shows why its a huge vulnerability for Russia to lose Ukraine to the West. First if Ukraine really does find those natural resources (such as natural gas and oil) they could directly cripple Russia's economy by being a rival alternative to the rest of Europe. Second, after crippling Russia's economy in the event of a land war the West will have an easier time mobilizing their armies to cut-off Moscow from its Natural Resources (oil specifically) then proceed to destroying their capital via a very flat and easily maneuverable terrain. This was the only video to finally let me realize why Moscow has repeatedly been worried about Ukraine joining NATO. Yes, war is never the answer but I'm perplexed as to why this vulnerability or concern of Russia did not seem to be taken much into consideration.

2014. Massive protests in Ukraine. A new president has been selected. New laws have been establised, most of them are russophobic. Everyone against the revolt is being burned alive in the house of trade unions, Odessa (14th of May). Neonazi soldiers are continuing to terrorize Lugansk and Donetsk for 8 years. 13,3k people have died. Nazist groups blackmail everyone who's against the new government. Poroshenko, as the new leader, completely approves of it. Zelensky, the current president, did nothing to stop it. It's not just about the NATO invitation. Fascism has been restored. The corrupt ukrainian leadership got to rule the country through blood and constant screams of the families they destroyed. This isn't war. Putin, after 8 years of watching innocent people bleed to death from the shattered glass, finally takes action. I can't believe that almost the entire world has sympathy for Ukraine, but not for the regions they continued to drop bombs on. This is sick. I have no hate towards these people. I only feel sadness for them.
