The fact that war is so profitable is just another sad part of humanity...

Yes but how do poor countries pay for all the sexy hardware?
@@Neil-Aspinall its not the poor countries who are paying major portions. The mpney moves from us treasury to defense contractors accounts but for this transfer to take place without media hassle a war has to happen somewhere where some us ally is attacked so us can use pretext for this one bank transfer.

@@monopalle5768 care to name a few ?, really interested to hearing this 🤔
Regardless of what happens with the war but it has created such an utter chaos and fear among 190+ countries pushing many to buy weapons for defence reasons. When all seek peace simultaneously such an irony.
If it won't be Ukraine buying weapons from US, it will be others for sure fearing for their sovereignty.
@@monopalle5768 Don't think that there's others on his level on the truth spectrum. The only person who came close was the late Serena Shim whom the US government is hush hush about how she died.
Someone who works for one of those 5 military complexes told me. The most powerful tool of protest nowadays is that of which companies & movements we the people support financially. For instance if everyone only bought groceries from farmers markets & mom an pop shops there’d not be a wal mart/Costco existing. It’d be hard for people to adjust at first but in time It’d be better for our society overall.
This has been the case in ALL wars. The arms makers and dealers are always the ones to get rich in the times of war. Not just this war.
As an American , I'm ashamed of my country government and mainstream media. 😅😅
@ Andromeda Emigrate to Russia then!
Ashamed does not do anything. As an American what are you doing about it?
You are not american or you are facing racism in america 🙏
Me too. 💔 Corruption at the top. 😰 Most of us DO NOT support what they are pushing on all of us. We need to call 📞 and be more expressive.

Please forward my reply to Ms. Sharma. Thanks
Do you think Doctors want people to be I'll ? And dentist wish for more tooth decay ? As a journalist, do you wish there are more tragedy and events like wars for you to cover ? If so, what makes you different from them?
We heard that Pro Russian Protesters in Germany are getting Harassed and Discriminated Against ! What's up with that ? What kind of Democracy is that ?
NaZZi lady did you get the rubbles ?
Genocidal War ? Do you know what Genocide means ? You are Dumb enough to believe the Western Media ! Wars Create Death... People get Killed... That is NOT Genocide ! UKRAINE BROUGHT THIS WAR ONTO THEMSELVES ! The US Government CAUSED this War !
They were training Ukrainian Soldiers and ARMING THEM FOR YEARS ! Right on Russia's Border ! What did they think was going to happen ? Should the Russians have ignored that ?
If the Russians were ARMING AND TRAINING Mexican Rebels.... would the American Government just sit there and do Nothing ? Of course not ! And Yes the Ukrainians are Rebels ! Especially the Nazi Azov Battalion Thugs who are Trapped in that Steel Mill ! Hopefully they won't be rescued !
If they didn't throw Viktor Yanokovich out of Power in 2014 in a Coup.... Ukraine Never would have been getting Bombed to Rubble ! They brought this onto themselves ! @ll ll
I’m a U.S. citizen and I love my country, or I should say, I love the concept of what we’re supposed to be. But I recognize what we’ve become and how far we are falling short.
I don’t fault anyone in India (or anywhere else) for being disgusted and not wanting to get involved in the current s&$t show with us.
My country still has many good attributes, but we’ve lost our way. We have blood on our hands, and self-righteously condemn other nations who in many respects are just doing what we did.
Well said.
USA has made its mistakes, supporting Ukraine is not one of them.
@@michaelboano7183 Depends on your definition of support. I don’t support Russia invading and doing the things they’ve done, and ultimately I hope Ukraine can remain sovereign and wear the Russians down until Russia leaves. But I don’t support my country giving them weapons and money. The entire affair is rotten and corrupt. We should have stayed out of it.
Jux taposition like many Americans who have no in depth understanding of world history, u r very wrong. I blame our schools more than I blame u folks who lack the skills and knowledge base to make an informed opinion.
@@michaelboano7183 Oh cut it out with the passive aggressive bull crap! I could have gone after you too but I’m not gonna waste my time on a sanctimonious jacksss! You’re the one that needs to educate yourself. How about some John Mearsheimer. How about the theory of political realism. Just because I don’t agree with you doesn’t mean I haven’t spent laborious hours educating myself on the subject-in fact it’s just the opposite. It’s emotionally motivated fools like yourself that had gotten us in dozens of conflicts that should have never happened. If this thing blows up into an open war between the US and Russia it won’t be me that has blood on their hands.
Every American citizen should see this kind of journalism
The military industrial complex & the pharmaceutical industrial complex never fail to exploit & capitalize on human misery !!!
Exactly the Biden administration is surely helping this criminals get rich and getting richer himself, I guess keeping Americans divided liberals fighting against conservatives so they can't see what's actually going on is a perfect strategy.
Don't call Pharmacy, By doing this you are targeting india..
Pharmacy work for humanity 🇮🇳
That's what The US has been for the past few years ago, but reaching the peak of TRUTH, because it's as of decades ago. We're now in the overlap of them both. The types of parasitic destructive greed with the most hold on The US Federal government. Ironically the issue of abortion is the present MSM distraction away from it all. It's all psychopathically INSANE, as if babies stand a chance against them both, no matter if say that pro life or pro choice.
@@CBS_official. Well the word pharmacy was taken from the Greek word pharmakia which in the Bible this same Greek word pharmakia is translated in Spanish and English as witchcraft, when Jesus said in the book of revelation those that practice witchcraft will not inherit the kingdom of heaven, the Greek word for witchcraft is pharmakia from where we get the word pharmacy. This word pharmakia is in the new testament Bible at least 3 times and it describes witchcraft, adivination and sorcery.
Don't blame pharmaceutical complex. They brings happiness from sufferings. Military always brings chaos to both parties.
INDIA: Please stop the war, both the parties must aim for peace.
USA: No, Lets prolong the war and make billions of dollars and India is not supporting us they are supporting Russia bla bla bla.

@@andriyshapovalov8886 Europe and US import more Oil and Gas from Russia. Eu gets more oil and natural gas from Russia more in 6hours that india hardly get in a month. These stupid NATO countries is the reason for the war. This bully Nato countries are reason for inflation in many countries. We have increased 2% from russia but getting 95% of fuel from US nd other OPEC countries. I don't know why this Western countries who always creating problems doesn't close there mouth but dictate other countries to do the shit. Us and its allies sanctioned us in many times in past. West countries are real example of an hypocrite.
Powerful words
"For defense companies to make money, the war must go on" in the name of democracy
Would it be preferable for Ukraine to be conquered and enslaved just to ease your qualms about shareholder capitalism and profits?
Would it be morally superior to have Ukrainians face Russian tanks with Molotov cocktails? Is it worth that so that the manufacturers of Javelin get lower bonuses? Is their profit the biggest evil in this situation?
Or is it Putin trying to colonise Ukraine? A activity that will give him a handsome profit in plunder.
Now I have cogent points to back my believe that corruption was birthed by this sets, they value money than life.
more like stating the obvious... unfortunately, that is an integral part of the human condition & nature, evolutionary speaking we do not compete against other species so we compete against ourselves, she likes bit**ing about the US but what are the alternatives? the Iranian Mullahs? the Russians? war is also a tool for controlling barbarians...
@everyday tenor Missiles of diversity and inclusivity in the name of liberty. The war must go on for the sake of -profit- Democracy!
wait.... INDIA is now SELLING weapons ryt??? I know, cuz we are the ones who bought their BRAHMOS missiles... so, INDIA is also now singing ".. the war must go on..."
Crimes against humanity ! Thank you to journalists who still report truth.
Indeed true!
That's the main reason no peace plan has been made to stop the war in Ukraine. Business first, people later.

why an appointed bureaucrat is the EU chief, who gave her power to make decisions over democratically elected governments of Europe....
Not happy for Indians? The west has always been this way, from colonialism to 2nd world war to middle East wars, this is how it is, There never was a Gandhi or Mandela from the west.

As an American, I have always found it surprising how the euphemistic term 'defense' contractors can go unchallenged to ship weapons of aggression all over the world.
Offense is the best defense. Isn't it?
I strongly suggest you Americans should choose your politicians wisely
We only have 2 chooses in the end.

Ultimate truth. Thank you for this!
Eisenhower's words are so true. War is making a few rich and the rest poor.
Poor or dead
What do you want to happen then? Should the US stop supplying ukraine?
Idealism is easy, reality is a bit more complicated than that though.
War happens because millions of people participate.

Brilliant job Palki Sharma Upadhyay 👍
It is absolute the best reporter this planet has.
You are the top notch Palki!!!
So basically these developed countries will not let other countries prosper....first they destroyed many countries in their quest to become rich and now again they are becoming hindrance to the progress of developing nations.
Yup, many people don't realise this but weapons have some of the biggest profit margins you can imagine... money flows like water once orders start coming in so every now and then something needs to happen around the world for these countries to prosper
You understood precisely the opposite. For decades, European countries lowered their military budget diverting it to other peaceful endeavors. But in the meantime autocratic regimes like China and Russia armed themselves and became more aggressive. Now with the latest events (like Russian aggression, China militarization of South China sea, etc.) once again Europe is forced to use money for military instead of education, health, climate and the like...
Well, the real question is what are you going to do about it?
@@3cosmo EU and USA are the biggest Exporters of Weapons. Currently they are also largest invaders also. They have invaded Afghanisthan, Vietnam, Laos, Cuba, Iraq etc. USA sepnds more than 700 billion dollars on Defence. If you count all top 5 Countries with highest Defence budget then their total defence expenditures is just half of USA expenditure. Now tell me who spend more on Defence. Ist China, Russia or EU and USA🤦♂️🤦♂️🤣🤣
Hate these developed countries, every path for progress will be paved.

@@edwardkantowicz4707 Hey, it's not just India , every person in the world craves for power that leads to violence. Every person is afraid of sickness and death. So by default these industries flourish. I was just saying that's how the world is. Demand and Supply. Not a debate mate. Peace
That is because if you have no weapons, your neighbors could just take everything else, even your children.
@@edwardkantowicz4707 it's not necessarily the weapons or money that's disturbing..but it's the attitude/intent with which they sell...

Thank You WION, in general, Palii, in particular, for your Spot On Reporting! A good reminder to us, Americans, of the wise words of our 34th President, Dwight Eisenhower. A man who understood War better than most. Supreme Allied Commander in WWII, knew this subject better than Every US President since!
Now you know why there are some people in your so called "rich" country who are still homeless. Now you know why your healthcare system is a mess as compared to even some of the developing countries.
Being American, you guys have the responsibility to choose a better leader to not only lead your country but the whole world towards a 'No-More-War-Future'.
I understand what you are saying about U.S. making a large profit in this war. I am just a civilian and I am not profiting from any of this money that is being made here. Nor would I want to have blood money in my hands. I will say though that I am glad that we are sending military aid to Ukraine. Without other countries aid Ukraine would not be able to defend themselves against Putin. We do not want WWlll on this planet, none of us on our Beautiful planet. It breaks my heart with grief for the good people lost both in Ukraine and Russia. Too many Russians have been brainwashed with a sickness. They do not know what they do not know. Compassionate Action is helping and kindness for our fellow humans. Peace Will Come one way or another!
yea yea we are all sad but you will not stand up, as i see it everyone stays seated. good job
Wow. Imagine getting a pragmatic and reasonable perspective on the cost and profits of the war from a media network. In the west its yet unheard of.
You could have got this from your middle-school social studies class.... It's very simplistic and even wrong.... Western democracies don't WANT war. But we will fight the Putins of the world, to prevent rape and theft and genocide. THAT is what we vote for.... It's not like we are making MONEY from fighting russia.... It is COSTLY.
@@monopalle5768 What is "western democracies"? The people? The politicians? The arms industry? Even in one western democracy there are many different forces who want different things for different reasons. Is generalizing all western democracies like that not a little too "simplistic" to be correct?
Besides they are talking about the military industrial complex in America specifically. There is nothing democratic about it and it has little to do with other western countries since even their collective arms industry is still but a fraction of the American.
Ps when was there evert a vote about war or its funding in ANY western nation? I sure didn´t get the memo.

The money not only flows to the pockets of the defense contractors, it also flows to the American media and the politicians !
That would be Wion and yes politicians that are invested in Defense contracts however I don't think the current conflict is effecting how much they are going to earn. Defense contractors sold weapons before this and they will continue to sell weapons after it's over and Wion will find other stories to cover after this is over.
If the money does not flow to the politicians, the US government would have already made a peace deal for Ukraine.

It's so sad that every country needs to spend so much on defence arsenals keeping important needs of people aside just because of the greed for power by some countries.
Yea. These weapons are basically killing machines. Real stupid but Putler, SiJin, Kim thats what they want. Flattening the territory n occupy the other country with killing machines. Total scary yet its reality now.
Are you kidding? Britain destroyed and enslaved a much more advanced Indian culture because Britain had developed better weapons at that time. To fight with animals you need weapons. Wake up and face the truth, there will be always nasty and greedy people in the world. You cannot fight criminals and terrorists with Nonviolence and veganism.
Once the heads of these snakes get bitten off. Their will be peace on earth and no need for their weapons anymore! May God bless protect and guide us all as we walk through this valley of darkness I pray Amen Read your Bible Revelations tells you everything. Get on the right path that will lead you to heaven. Their are two paths we can take as we walk this earth. ALL religions have one thing in common that is OUR ONE CREATOR. Those that are in control of this earth believe they are Gods.

The U.S. regime's wholesome strategy is very palatable, easy, plain and simple. As long as chaos and instabilities remain within others, we remain undivided and stable to thrive. With this modus operandi they set their plans into motion around the globe.
Flaunting their shields of *'Democracy', 'Human rights'* and *'Freedom'* they chanted and marched into the fields, but only tears, agonies and destructions were the yields.
Yes, a major portion of people in the world are still innocent, naive, gullible and impressionable. As long as there are those who could be corrupted and bought, great opportunities present itself.
_' “Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste, and a divided household falls. And if Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand?" '_
~ *Luke 11:17-18*
Regardless of what happens with the war but it has created such an utter chaos and fear among 190+ countries pushing many to buy weapons for defence reasons. When all seek peace simultaneously such an irony.
If it won't be Ukraine buying weapons from US, it will be others for sure fearing for their sovereignty.

you have earned my sincere respect! Imagine if we had true journalists here in america that reported the truth, the people would know our leader better.
wake up, they are working against your country
You rightly said. The military industrial complex have one moto.
The wars must go on.
Except it's Putin that started an invasion of another country this time.
Palki Sharma Upadhyay you are surely a blessing to your husband and family.
We know this but well done on this report, it hits you straight between the eyes
Nothing more to add. She covered everything to perfection. 🙏🏾👍🏾
It is so refreshing to hear a rational, truthful analysis. Thank you
She did not say anything new nor gave any solution.
Not like India gives away weapons for free.
@@andriyshapovalov8886 Well , it's not duty of High standard Indian journalist to preach solution for the mess your countries create in past and present , obviously in future too. She enlighten the people what's really going on backscreen of war machinery too and for your little brain knowledge my country didn't supply any weapons for free to get benefited from it.
@@bharatha6568 as well as she is quiet that EU is trying to REDUCE import of Russian energy while India is INCREASING the share of Russian oil for its internal market as well as profiting from selling it outside.
Indian moral standards was never high, no doubt about that.
Exactly & we must share this to maximum!
@@andriyshapovalov8886 Is supplying weapons to Ukraine the best solution? God help if you believe it.
You are amazingly enlightened 🙏
Such an excellent truthful news reporter. My 'go to' , hear the truth.
"Soldiers who fight & lay down lives for pride for themselves, their units & nations, must also know of the knaves who create and profit from these wars"

They must know it but their politicians and other leaders seems to play like superheroes.
Once you enlist, the brain washing starts, so they don’t slant a chance!

Soldiers are supposed to work for nation and its residents but now it is more about politics than the services. Actual soldiers never come and praise any government and try to make a govt looks good. They don't want thier recognition just to server and for the people who love these soldiers will never shout and cry on the online channel or media, they will keep you in the heart. Not like some of armed forces big faces.
Yes and they pay wages to people who pay taxes, so the Gov, can build schools and hospitals. Funny that.
Eisenhower..... A great man with character... Need leadership like that today in the world.. all we have is war mongering
This war is NOT about Russia .. It's about .. money.
Thank you !!
Palki Sharma made me fall in love with this Channel. Could you also give an insight of Russia/Putin's claims on the conflict. We hardly see much of their media reporting. Before the war, i admired putin as a president until now. I recently researched 2014 archieves about the Azov batallion and its described by USA congress and Ukraine as militia with neo-nazi and white supremacy ideologies. Its spokesperson also admits that it recruits neo nazi militias. Could this be the "denazification" that Putin was talking about?
Yes, exactly.
@Isaac Kasoma
I used to full in love with Palki and Wion. I used to believe that Zelensky was Nazi. But after many many research and reading and hearing from Ukrianian, they are not as wion and some media. I suggest you to find out more with an open minded.
@@san209nha9 quite clear that you need to research more. The Azov thing is real as is the US & NATO's role in precipitating the conflict between Russia & Ukraine.
@@san209nha9 kindly look the tweet made by nato on women's day of Ukrainian military .... there you would clearly see nazi sign on the dress of Ukraine military
The tweet was made by nato themselves
Please forward my reply to Ms. Sharma. Thanks
"Because for defense companies to make money, the war must go on. "
Rich people like myself, we make WAY more from peace... But the poor and evil people like putin will TAKE what we have if we do not defend it.
all true well said
Well said
I remember my professor's word in September last year. He was sure US is going to start a large scale war either near Balkan region or in Arabic hemisphere (North Africa and Middle East) because of proximity to Russia. According to him, It is absolutely necessary for US to make sure there is no long term peace because it runs on Oil and Wars. If there is no war, there will be shift in American mindset and market which they can't afford. But instead of involving themselves US have started proxy war yet again. And we know how US proxy wars end with creating long term instability.
So you are saying that the US should fold its arms and look on while bullies like Putin kick smaller countries like ukraine in the stomach. Who's going to defend smaller countries. India? No wonder you Indians have sided with Putin. In a way America has maintained the balance.
Your professor seems to have a few things kinda right but very mixed up.
@@lostpony4885 lol
@@lostpony4885 which ones are mixed up
Except Putin started this war.
WION is the best source of world news unbiased, Palki ❤, You deserve more respect.
She "forgot" to mention that India is surviving China only thanks to Russian weapons ...
@@centurione6489 Good Joke..
India's Old weapons are russian..
New weapons are Made in india..
India is surviving bcz of our soliders & Money economy.. Not bcz of russian weapons, Otherwise You see all weapons got destoyed in war
Hey girl ☺️
FACTS
They are still biased towards India... but still unbiased compared to CNN/FOX
I love this woman! She is just perfect and her information as well!!! Thank you!
The obvious is, Yes of course war is horrible. But sometimes a country must fight back. Then, it is good the defending country has an arms manufacturer available, and those workers have a right to make a fair profit.
Palki Sharma is the best journalist. Can't miss even one day of her program.
If India had chosen sides the World War iii would have been started..But all thanks to Indian Government for being neutral... Proud Indian 🇮🇳
Yes all because India can get cheap oil from Russia. You should be ashamed of the Indian position.
@@derekarnold3665 Kiddo your country is buying more
@@derekarnold3665lol you should discuss that with your masters
@@derekarnold3665 we are not ashamed we are proud of our position we do what is most beneficial for us

and Eisenhower was a general in WW2. A man who knew what he was saying.
Not one corporate media site in the US would ever say this. Thank you.
Because this is BS. Ukrainians need weapons and need it now. Ukraine isn't going to capture Moscow or kill Putin. The weapons are required to stop the Russian aggression as soon as possible.
Eisenhower's speech originally said "congressional-military-industrial-complex," but the words were changed.
Another American, General Smedley Butler, wrote a book called, War is a Racket, in which he discussed all the companies that benefited from wars in which he served.
you missed mentioning the most important point by Smedley Butler
So you are suggesting that none should benefit from making a product, employing your own countrymen, paying taxes from the whole process, including procurement/manufacturing the base materials from contracted materials created by contractors who also employ fellow Americans who also pay taxes, have pensions, buy homes, food, cars etc... to produce a product that is in strict compliance to a contract issues by an elected government, who is demanded to protect the people of its nation?
.
It is your own laws that state, every company in America MUST make a profit.... You now think this is fat cats getting rich on misery?
.
What keeps the costs so high? Huge losses in R&D of all the competing companies that try to comply with the very strict design parameters of the contracts. All the checks carried out at every stage. Secrecy requirements. Security that not only protects infiltration of actual aggressors, cyber thieves, communications, product testing etc etc... but also vetting staff at all levels on a constant basis.... so you want these companies to all work for free?
.
I have personally had actual experience in this field and made some money and lost a lot, simply because you have to be ingenious in design, abilities and skill, and almost 99% of the time, the cheapest. There is no given in this field, I have won contracts and delivered a product against much larger companies, and lost as well. Deny me a living and employing others, who all pay our taxes, win or loose, demand that I must make a profit in the process BY LAW but deny me a revenue.... and I would walk away.

When people are indecents because of their ignorance.....
It's factual and there are thousands of pictures and videos to prove it:
-The AZOV army have nazi signs on their uniforms.
-Zelensky is a nazi
-he put in place a policy to persecute russian speaking people in east-Ukraine since 2014. The ukrainian army was bombing civilians mothers and children, was raping young women and was killing men under the order of the Ukrainian governement.
All of those exactions are documented BUT censored in the western world.
It's not all and I think the truth will not be possible to cover: Each russian soldier captured by the AZOV army is asked if he is an officer or not.
If he's not, he takes a bullet in the knee.
If he is officer, he takes a bullet in the head.
Lucky for Russia, there are NO WOMAN on the front line. I can't imagine their fate once captured.
Even if they're restrained and have surrender.
If Ukraine loose the war, they won't be able to control the narrative as it the privilege of the winner and all their crime against humanity will not be possible to censored. And they commited a lot of them.
If Ukraine loose, the whole world will know that USA helped nazis to persecute russian speaking people and I wish them good luck after that. They are loosing more and more allies the more years goes. Only 40 countries are allied with USA, most of them are submitted and have loose all their sovereignty like west-Europ.
If you knew who indecent you were by asking this question, you would not ask it at all. Because it means a nazi government is totally acceptable for you, a nazi policy is acceptable for you, the persecution of a part of the people is acceptable for you.
I leave you with your concious and hope you manage to sleep well despite your country standing by nazis and making profits thanks to them.
USA did worse in Iraq. have you forgot it ? And because of that, Poutine could not be condemned by any court for crime against humanity as long as George W Bush will not be condemned for worse.
Anyway.... Wasn't it in Ukraine that Biden Jr has been caught in the affair of his laptop ? It seems, no ? Sorry but I don't believe in coincidences.
The reason is simple: Russia and China refuse the globalization USA wants and both are obstacles to take down by any means as soon as possible. The meaning chosen for Russia is ukrainian nationalism (nazis).
The meaning chosen for Syria were Al Nostra and Al Qaida (terrorists groups). Hilary Clinton's hacked mailbox revealed it: the "rebels" in Syria fought with the same guns used to kill Khadafi in Lybia and they have been given by USA.
The meaning chosen in Afghanistan to fight against the soviet union is talibans.
Once and for all: USA loves democraty because it's the easiest system to corrupt. Corruption was enough to submit Europ but it won't work with Rusia and China. As it didn't work in the Middle-East AT ALL and it's the reason why Saddham Hussein has been murdered. Since then, more people have died than during the whole reign of Hussein. USA needed to make an example to what happen when capitalism doesn't get what it want.
If USA really cared about all the people all over the world, the Third-world people would not be kept in total misrey and poverty for the profits of capitalism. Don't pretend your country want the peace in the world, it want to colonize the whole world and it thinks this way the world will be in peace. In other words, your country is led by an utopia.
@@gillesgrindel7985 You show such ignorance and clearly did not read, then apply an educated process of understanding before calling that knowledge... I am not here to educate you in reality, if you want to rant about your OWN opinion, why not start your own thread and stop trolling others.
Your comments that I do not believe others should benefit from etc etc... is absolute nonsense... and in fact the opposite.... try reading again....
You will not see this type of analysis in us mainstream media. Great work 👏 👍🏾
As an American I like this unbiased western news💯
How true it is. Arms Business is a dangerous thing.
Congratulations WION for 6M subs, hope to see you at 10M+ with your honest and unbiased reportage
Isn’t it a fact that the Vietnam war was kept going because certain people were becoming richer by the hour suppling weapons and helicopters?
Im sure heroin or opium was the benefactor during that time..
Eisenhower's words were a prophetic warning that echoes throughout the world now, and haunts us with every passing day and night.
He was a great man who knew what war was and the cost of war!!! Not only in lives but also in what it takes in resources that could be used for the betterment of of mankind rather than the destruction of mankind!!! Wake up!!! Before It's too late!!!
Since the beginning of the Ukraine-Russia war, Europe has had to bear the immediate consequences, with the refugee, energy and economic crises coming one after another. While the United States, as the main culprit, benefits from it.
Russia invaded, they are the main culprit. All the other nonsense about NATO expansion are excuses, Russia did not oppose NATO expansion 20 years ago when Poland was added. Estonia was added and Russia did nothing. Russia made an agreement with Ukraine to respect their sovereignty, but instead invaded them in 2014 breaking their agreement and pushing Ukraine towards NATO.
That is how smart axx vs stupid axx.
True. 😀
True. EU must stop supporting US intentions. US is creating Energy and Food Crisis all over the world.
The US made Russia attack Ukraine?
I absolutely love your reporting. And truthfully, after week 2, I said: "Why isn't this over already?...follow the money." So the question remains: how to stop this insanity?
We all know what will stop the insanity but not how to stop.. because the system is filled with greedy people
That would be up to Russia. They started this for evil reasons.
@everyday tenor Much at stake, you think he would?
NATO should stop expanding.
The basic reason why this is possible is the petrodollar; if the US need money for weapons, they simply print it. The petrodollar must fall!
Thank you for this information! very good report!
Words so true.
Thank you Palki and the WION team for shedding light in the corners where other news outlets want to keep in the shadow. I have been waiting for these 3rd partys to have the camera turned on them after about 2 weeks into this conflict.
Ukraine actually needs even more weapons. God bless the USA and Slava Ukraine!
