  4. Putin allies need to study their alliance with Russia. They’ve seen how weak is their master especially the BRICK squad😂

  6. This should give Xi some reconsideration when it comes to Taiwan. Same with Trump should he win in November & wants do his own SMO into Mexico.

  11. If Generalissimo Putin had been one of his generals , then he would have been dismissed a long time ago, Putin is totally incompetent and this offensive has taken him completely by surprise. What a fool??

  17. The west media trying so hard to avoid the truth that Russia is really dealing with Ukraine… Trying so hard to make us not to believe any story we hear from Russia dealing with Ukraine soldiers

  20. Is amazing how Putin acts like a cry baby when Ukraine does anything similar with what Russia is doing for almost 3 years…

  23. NATO is not a defensive alliance. They illegally bombed Yugoslavia (direct violation of the UN Charter). We must never forget what they did to Afghanistan, Libya, Iraq, Syria etc…

  34. Now? The Ukraine debacle is an embarrassment to Putin Now? It has been an embarrassment to
    Putin since he thought about doing it, but then he went on to cement himself in history as the
    worst national leader of the 21st century. Putin had purple paint splattered all over him by the third
    day of his "special military operation."

  35. Need help ukarain ❤❤❤❤❤❤ ❤❤❤❤ is a good one for me to get a job in the future and I need to get a new job in the next few months so I can get my money back and get my money out of the way so I can pay my bills and get

  36. Ukraine has learned war well! It "controls the engagement," i.e., it can chose to begin or disengage at will….. . Disciplined fighters will consistently cut through and defeat larger enemy units. And it appears that there are not Ukraine's equal all the way to Moscow.

  37. i wonder if the West truly cares about Ukraine or they just hate Russia. it reminds me of Vietnam. why fight USA when u can proxy war them? why fight Russia when u can proxy war them?

  38. This is what happens When a leader of a Country Decides to make his OWN PERSONAL WAR A PERSONAL ASPIRATION and is putting his own IMAGE and REPUTATION the foremost importance WHILE PUTTING NO INTEREST IN THE RUSSIAN POPULATION. In other words PUTIN IS MISMANAGING RUSSIA REALLY BADLY

  40. lol western media never tells the truths. Russia keeps advancing for the DOnbas and Kusrks has not military point whatsoever.

  44. This is bigger then most think, Russia will and is relocating troops from the front to fight back in Kursk which will leave a weak spot to open a new front into Russia.

  47. Well once you know what it is about you will understand. So we secretly created the North Silk route, which goes from London to Japan by rail, and the business opportunities for the free trade zone between Europe and Asia is at the Russian border. Where to put it has been difficult but we seem to be seeing it now. So shock and awe indeed but any time you create something like this, you get land speculation, so we work in secret and get things done very quickly to prevent that.
    It will create the largest trading block in the world. The largest in history.
    And we also need a bridge from Russia to Japan since luxury rail for the wealthy is also half of this huge megaproject. And it is already open and running and starting to boom in Asia.
