- “If Russia loses the war, then whoever replaces Putin is not going to be able to hold onto 11 timezones of nation. Manchuria was only stolen from China 200 years ago. They want Manchuria back and they’re going to get it.”
Diane Francis discusses the fragile relationship between Russia and China, and how "China will pounce" when Putin is replaced.

At this point in time, it would be easier for China to get back the parts of Manchuria Russia took in the not too distant past rather than try to get Taiwan back into the fold.
Except that nobody in Russian Manchuria wants to be anything but part of the Russian Federation. In Taiwan however, a majority thinks of themselves as ethnic Chinese and resistance would likely be weaker.
@@andreasferenczi7613 In fact, only a small number of people in Taiwan consider themselves Chinese. We have resisted China for decades, but now the gap between us and China is too big. Our hope now lies in the United States.
@@andreasferenczi7613 Recent examples have shown us, that the population has no say in this. And I can only hope that the U.S. and "western" countries learned from this lesson and show their full support right away.
@@user-cw4jd8xt2u I don't know all that much about Chinese and Taiwanese identity, but I was under the impression that Taiwanese was seen more as a subset of Chinese than something entirely separate. Up until the early 2000s that seems to have been the dominant viewpoint and I didn't know that had changed. I also wonder how that could even change so dramatically.
Anyhow, I am still confident that the people in the Russian Far-East view themselves as much less Chinese than the Taiwanese.
@andreasferenczi7613 a truly ignorant post lol
Times Radio… please note the interviewer in the title or information. I am a big fan of Kate and the guests she brings. These are the interviews I look for. Thank you!
Yes, who is interviewing who here. I just saw this on my recommended list. I presume Diane Francis is the interviewer but who is she interviewing? Whoever it is, she seems to have a good grasp on everything they are discussing. I like her and would like to know her name and background. I listened but didn't pick up her name and I didn't see it on the transcript. I have a feeling the first part was left off.
Finally an American influencer/political lobbyist admitting that banning TikTok is purely political
@@toolbaggers- I don't think it is purely political at all. TikTok has had a profoundly negative impact on certain aspect of American society. If you are a car owner in American, I'll give you one example. Someone threw up a video on how to steal a catalytic converter from a Kia/Hyundai. Average replacement cost of a catalytic converter parts and labor is more than $1,000. As a result of that video the insurance rate of every car owner increased and the theft of catalytic converters became wide spread. In some cases insurance companies even refuse to insure certain vehicles. That is only one example. There are many more. It has become an industry of pranks for which some people are paid money. Those are the ones who want to keep it.
@@toolbaggers Diane Francis is Canadian.
Anybody who wishes another Islamic state, which Chechnya would be is it separates, is evil. She qualifies.
Very clever person is Kate, never a stumble, never a mistake, always very well rehearsed and to the point.
President Xi be like. "Soon Manchuria will be Chinese again".
Didn't China produce a map recently of China which included Manchuria?
@@franceyneireland1633 Yes China did produce a map of Manchuria and they called Vladivostok by it's original Chinese name Hǎishēnwǎi.

_"Do I graceously wave back?"_
_"No,"_ says the woman, _"the coffin is closed."_
@@larsrons7937 Oh, it 'reminds' you of that, does it? So a made up pathological phantasy of yours 'reminds' you of something that happened in that upside down world of yours..
Chinese have a saying, If you can cheat, cheat….
Not sure how that's working out for them. Their people live even worse than people in russia.
The Chinese (in their no-limit partnership) may also not be aware of a particularly revealing Soviet joke from the late 1960s:
- Comrades! Lenin has opened our eyes!
-Our eyes too.... a little bit (squinting is also customary)
The original in Russian is:
-- Товарищи! Ленин открыл нам глаза!
-- И нам ... цуть цуть/ (А нам не оцень...)
The issues run much deeper than Russia's theft of Outer Manchurian territories in the treaty of Aigun.
Another Chinese saying: "When the toad passes the ox, you better look for the swan eating the lesser fish."
In the book called Factory girls that tells about young women not valued at home were sent to do factory work.
It explains that "everyone" lies to get work, it is foolish to not lie.
Chinese people are the biggest Putin fans at the moment. Wait til Chairman Xi springs the 4D chess move on everyone 😂
"Friendship without limits" is a very ambiguous idea.
It differs slightly from friends with benefits.

Very insightful guest, very informative interview. This video is part of a longer one from yesterday, I recommend it:
"Times Radio - Putin faces threat from the East if he fails in Ukraine | Diane Francis"
Useful presentation, indeed! Thanks
Why would the guest have a higher volume (louder) than the host. Sort it out.
I'm relieved that it's just not me struggling to hear Times Radio. Just recently Times Radio presenters have consistently been barely audible, which is both disappointing and frustrating.
My thoughts exactly.
The host is using a mic….the guest is room audio. It could have been fixed in post for sure, but calm down. Lol
How refreshing.. A very knowledgeable person.
I once heard a Chinese commentator who said that lying was not only acceptable in business in China but expected. 'Nuff said.
you heard Mike pompeo say" we lie, we cheat ,we steal" . A random chinese commentator i dont know and irrelevant , but an US official?
U heard
Source trust me bro
Superb reporting from both!
The chinese look after themselves,no one else.
They will use Russia's situation to thier advantage but if a better deal from the Americans came along they would jump ship in an instant.
Trolls seem to be trembling at this prospect of China revisiting the Amur Annexation. They are overactive amongst the Comments. Francis highlighted a long simmering issue for Chinese culture, espec since the 1858 Treaty of Aigun. Worth watching!
I remember Diane from her early columns in the Toronto Sun. Diane is always worth listening to.
A Blunt Assessment and the Truth !
LOL, the truth? Nonsense! The truth is that almost all those minorities are 100% loyal to the Russian Federation. I know someone from Vladivostok, she wouldn't in her wildest dreams think of herself as anything but Russian and certainly would resist as much as possible against becoming part of China. What Francis is talking about is pure fantasy!
If you expect the truth from TR your delusional.
Excellent interview as always, but what happened to Kate's sound level? I had to turn my speaker volume to max! Please sort this for the next, eagerly awaited video. Keep up the food work!
Thank you...I appreciate your thoughtful commentary.
They already have moved - there are thousands of Chinese farmers moving into the far east of Russia.... It's going to be like Tibet in the not too distant future.
Oh well 🤷♂️
This woman is spot on. Chechnya and Belarus are ready to move on.

She has no clue...

There must be a lot of people in Belarus, particularly the young,looking across into the Baltic states and Poland wondering why they are still behind an iron curtain that came down 30 years ago
This woman talks sense.
Correction: Non-sense.
Show me a single person from Vladivostok, who thinks his/her city should rather be part of China than Russia. The same with all the ethnic minorities in the Russian Federation. Almost all of them are 100% loyal to the Russian Federation.
You mean nonsense
I agree. It's part of a longer video from yesterday: "Putin faces threat from the East if he fails in Ukraine | Diane Francis"
Not really. Most of these minority regions are 40-60% ethnic Russian by design.
She is delusional
Russian oil and gas revenues are dropping which will hurt their war effort.
Russia is the 5th biggest economy in the world in PPP. Their economy will grow by 3% this year. They're raking in millions daily from Oil and Gas. 80% of the Planet is backing Russia against the criminals In NATO. Russia is making huge deals and gaining influence in Africa, Latin America and Asia.
Gas - yes, oil - no.
Nah. Actual fact Russia projected economic growth this year for Russia is 3.2% and is the biggest economy in Europe by ppp calculations. Oil and gas revenue is going to grow with new trade routes and pipelines and infrastructure and manufacturing is going gangbusters. It is factually the USA and Europe that is crashing not Russia. Without the War Industry the USA can't survive ... that is why the USA. is factually the Evil Empire. Delusional thinking is not going to change any of that.
Russian economy the strongest in Europe.
@@stevemitchell1454 LOL now you are really trolling here.
please sort your sound out Times Radio!
I just hope Xi doesn't scream "Taipei in THREE DAYS!" like putin did about Kyiv. Kinda made russia into a bit of a joke
Putin said that only in some people's dreams.
The joke is on those who repeat such lies 🙄
Just that it was then chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley, who said that. Putin was talking about being prepared for several years of war right from the start. It is ridiculous how so many people could be brainwashed into believing the exact opposite of the truth.
@@wilvanveen3290 Pootin's subordinates and lap dogs said it.........and Pootin didn't push back against it in statements he made after the fact.
@Yak-ry7of You listen to Russian media??
The sound level differential between host and guest is way off.
Why is the host of Times Radio voice so low? Very annoying!
Totally agree; a simple error, easily fixed, that spoils a great interview.
okay I'm not usually a huge fan of times thumbnails, but this one was ✨gold ✨
This guest is good. Thanks!
Actually, china is classified as a near-peer competitor, while russia is classified as an adversary.
Stop buying Chinese stuff,Learn to make it ourselves.
I would love to, but it’s very difficult to do as a consumer. The west need to be strategic about this and either impose tolls or to help homegrown companies to flourish. At the moment we see quite the opposite. Germany is practically shutting it self down.
Wish we could but expensive healthcare and unions can make it tough to go all American made.
Western companies have made lots of money by using cheap Chinese labour. Everything is made in China and it would be very hard to find something with no Chinese parts in it.

Best analysis I have seen.

as Mexico gets Texas and California back.
Germany will get Danzig back too of course. Who

Very Interesting.
I appreciate the interview, but why are the recording levels low compared to YT's adverts, and why is the interviewer so much quieter again than the guest?
I really like Diane Francis' commentary, no problem with volume
Let’s hope that China wants those regions more than they want Taiwan.
Taiwan is part of China.
That's what the west wants
Safer bet for china
What China wants to do may not necessarily be the same as what we want China to do
Its all about natural wealth resources
Shame on Putin
Compared with Biden and Netanyahu Putin is a saint. How many foreign nations has Russia invaded ,destroyed all the infrastructure, left deadly poison behind and slaughtered millions since 1945. Count the numbers and compare that with Russia. I guarantee the USA has committed 10 times the crimes. Start with the US taking sides in the Greek Civil war. Thousands were sent into exile . Then quickly move on to Korea. Millions murdered ,the country ruined. I could go on. Let me know when you have done the maths. Shame on YOU.
At least all this military hoopla demonstrates that western weaponry is the real deal.
Excellent interview (which means interviewer and interviewee). On my sound system their volumes were very different so I had to adjust it at each exchange unfortunately.
Propaganda
Educational thanks
It might be also a completely opposite situation, where China is actually pulling the strings behind the scenes. You don’t know for sure…
And it might be a totally different situation, where the population of the collective west is being systematically lied to in a way that puts Lord Haw Haw to shame
La faiblesse du vassal russe n'en est que plus humiliante et fâcheuse pour son avenir! Et depuis le début de la guerre en Ukraine, je connaissais ce scénario et les conséquences sur la russie en décadence et corruption. Le "stratège" putin a complétement foiré et son peuple va le lui faire savoir, pire que la chute de l'URSS.

A great interview, but Kate, your voice sounded very quiet for some reason - maybe mic problem? The woman being interviewed was really knowledgeable.
What's with the _really_ low audio volume of this video?
Lets compare the reception Yellen and Blinken got with the greetings Putin will get when he visits in may.
Note to the interviewer: Please turn up the level on your mic. You are faint sounding, your subject is loud. Very annoying.
Volume problems in this interview, the interviewer is almost inaudible.

Great interview. However, interviewer's voice volume is barely audible. Fortunately Diane Francis voice level is higher.

I like these short vids but find the repetition of part of the item as click bait very irritating
I agree. I think they do it because it is basically meant for radio broadcast.

Bad situation to Occidental!. Many believe it is easy!.
Leaders of many western countries think that they have not advanced enough, however they do not realize that the invaders had a year to mine and fortify themselves, they have the courage and high morale to achieve victory.

Pathetic attempt at journalism. Practically satire.
Audio balance between host & guest is terrible. Not a watchable video.

Manchuria should be its own state right???
I am sure when China goes in the following referendum will declare their independence!
Once again western countries double standards
not really. China needs to play by the rules or lose access to markets.
please even out your audio levels!!
Absolutly correct, Russian regions have stated from the start that this war is Moscow's war so they have distanced themselves from it as they knew they would be picked on to supply the cannon fodder
More wishfully thinking. Like Russia has run out of ammo, men, tanks, etc etc etc. The kind of nonsense they have been spouting for the mast 2 years.
Hillarious Kate😂😂😂

China will let the West defeat Russia and let the West re-colonize China.
