*About the Ukraine situation
I’d normally resubmit with a title mistake like that, but reddit video took ages to process this, so I’ll leave it.
Was expecting to see him *actually tackle* the ambassador…. And yet I still walked away completely satisfied! When they try to hide and justify their actions it’s amazing to see journalists like this giving these cowards no quarter!
“An ambassador is an honest gentleman sent to lie abroad for the good of his country.”
“Ambassador Yuri Filatov, Ambassador of Russia to Ireland for the moment at least.”
I agree, I don’t want Ireland to be associated with a nation diplomatically, when it is feigning to acknowledge the needless murdering of others.
Solid piece from RTÉ News have to say. And that anchors second home run interview of late.
Expel all things Putin related – and let’s start at home.
Fair play RTE. I don’t think anyone’s looking for Russia’s perspective but seeing the ambassador put his foot in it on national television is only going to increase our solidarity with Ukraine.
The ambassador clearly did not expect to get a grilling like that and it was fantastic to see. Fair play and keep it up!
Edited for typo, clarity, then again to put in this edit note.
This slack jawed propagandist ambassador is sending young Russians to die for rich the Russian friends of Putin and himself. Why would good Russians die for this tool ?
David was brilliant here I actually really like him speaking no matter what you think of RTE he’s always been good. The little shake of the head at the end and the look of disgust on his face. Little dig too ambassador “for the moment at least”.
Worth it for the last lines alone “Why shouldn’t the Irish gov. expel you?” “Well eh.. that’s a good question..”
I wish rte presenters could be this forceful with our politicians too. Actually did a good job for once
Thanks OP. Heard that shite-bag deny russian plans to invade a few weeks back. Was like a child lying about stealing sweets he was that brazen. Out ta fuck
Emotional question?? Innocent people are fucking dying, you piece of shit! I mean what did I expect? But I hate people like these, who try to diminish the gravity of situation by acting like it’s not a big deal, and we’re the fools for caring about it. Doesn’t matter if they’re being genuine or not
Fuck this piece of garbage
He needs to be thrown out already
He’s trying so hard to read Putin’s speech you can see him squinting his eyes
“Please try your best”
“….okeh”
I love how while the guy is in the process of lying you can hear the host flipping to the page relating to the specific lie and it’s freaking HILARIOUS.
Russian starts lieing and all you hear is agressive flipping then “Ah but see this right here you said exactly this. On this day at this exact time HMMMMMM? So is that now a lie?” And he still tries to lie. He couldnt form a single point without it being disproven.
Unbelievable interviewer. Fair play to him. I’d love to see this get big on Reddit.
Finally a reason to pay for the TV license.
Wow, that last question! The whole interview actually. Bravo to this news guy, I wish they all were like that, what a hero.
Loved the part when he said “the war, uh, uh, uh fuck I wasn’t supposed to call it that, happened
“Will you let me explain some basic facts?”
“Please, try your best.”
Absolute zinger!
>Please, try your best

‘Why should our government entertain your position while you’re an apologist to slaughter’
‘Well it’s a good question…’
Jesus H Christ what a response
“An apologist for slaughter”. Hitting some home truths.
