Oh how the lies are starting to show on western influencers, starting to look used up and exasperated from their constant scheming and manipulation of the truth. Hope you've all enjoyed your blood money you bottom feeding manipulated commentators who've never done a days journalism in your lives! Amateur story hour
The "conscripts" are not soldiers. They are mostly teens who doing their required one year of training. They are not in the army. If they were armed soldiers, it is unlikely the Ukrainians could have captured them
What is sad is lying to the people that Ukraine is winning , has a chance to win or even remotely close ! It is criminal really . The people need to know the truth . Ukrainians are losing in all fronts in almost full retreat across the front . They have no troops , no artillery, outnumbered and complete outgunned . Putin wanted negotiations like a year and half ago , not anymore after Kursk incursion
Drip, drip, drip! How on earth can Ukraine dfeat russia with this strategy? Kaputin, befiehl deinen Truppen, die Ukraine sofort zu verlassen und nach russland zuruckzukehren. May Our Lady of Vyshhorod help Ukrainians to achieve a just peace with the return of all its territories, including Crimea. May all Ukrainians who have been injured be healed and may all who have died rest in peace. May those who grieve be comforted. May kaputin be removed from power, along with his sycophants. May God remove Trump off the political stage! May God protect Vuhledar from russia
Is he a reporter or Ukrainian Government spokesman. He is literally just repeating the Govvernment line. Pathetic attempt at journalism
When they tell the tales of kind captivity more will surrender.
There is no negotiating with Putin he eather leaves Ukraine completely even crimea or nothing.
If Russian POWs could only be released if their parents came to collect them and were shown what has been done to Ukraine . . Would that put more pressure on Putin?
Love the show! And I've got a tiny crush on Kate, I must admit 😋
PAY ATTENTION, PUTLER: LAUNCHING NUCLEAR BOMBS AGAINST OTHER COUNTRIES IS LIKE LAUNCHING NUCLEAR BOMBS AGAINST THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION ITSELF. DO YOU UNDERSTAND OR NEED AN EXPLANATION?
Conscripts don't want to die
Really enjoy Kate's interview style and questioning. Very informative and not a bunch of gibberish.
Putin has been Russia's greatest leader ever, it is going to be a downhill slide once he is gone.
A whole generation of Russian men have died in Ukraine for one man"s greed! The Russian people should stand up and stop this madness! How is any of this helping the Russian people! The west will never stop supporting Ukraine! This war can end tomorrow if Putin pulls Russian soldiers out of Ukraine!
Propaganda

Fantasy movie
Hi Kate love your channel , Use to see you years ago on some programs But cannot remember Where Can you where it might of been Many thanks , Stay Safe .

🇬🇧💙🇺🇦
Why is there next to no debate in the West about exactly what terms would be acceptable to end the war? Getting on the same page as Ukraine now would be very helpful before Putin tries to pry us apart by even vaguely offering terms which the anti-Ukraine elements in the West can piggyback on to drive the public already sick of the war against it even more. And with Trump promising to force a settlement should he win, the time is now to figure this out.
Absolutely Amazing the way these Ukrainian Soldiers are So Clever. Bravo! Just think how Fast this War would be Over if they Had Everything They NEED. NO RESTRICTIONS TOO! Glory to Ukraine 🇺🇦🇺🇸❤️
Funny how theyre feeling sorry for themselves now that people from the big cities are being drafted. Theyve been throwing the native Sibearian tribes into the meat grinder/front line with no training since the beginning but now that theyre running out of cannon fodder, theyve got to start drafting actual Russians.
