Ukraine is fighting an existential war. Even if it bends, it won't break. Russia on the other hand has stretched its economy and society so far that it very well might.
Even if Russia 'wins' in the short term, takes control of Ukraine, there are now generations of Ukrainians that are radicalised and will despise Russia and will demand an independent Ukraine. Putin is an old man and will be dead and gone within a decade. The land of Ukraine is here to stay and no one in Ukraine will forget this invasion for many generations to come.
Unfortunately the UN was set up with this idea that important nations of the day like the UK and US and France etc... and the USSR would remain forever as important countries. That was short sighted, very short sighted, it worries me so many diplomats and politicians worldwide can be so wrong despite their knowledge... So Russia as a permanent member of the security council can't be removed.
Russia will have to pay for putin's crimes. Poland will take Kaliningrad Krolowiec and Finland will take back Carelia and china will take half sibir ...putin was catastrophic for russia. A free democratic russia will be after the fall of criminal dictator putin.
How did they manage to do it with a Ukrainian SAM missile? Thats like double evil, making Ukraine hit their own hospital. So there were no military targets around then?
There must be different measures of bravado in Russia. I don't see how bombing a children's hospital and medical clinic makes you look like a winner. Its quite shameful and unbecoming of a civilized nation.
NATO calls this sort of thing 'collateral damage'. It was a phrase cin constant use during the wars in the M.E. especially with Obama's drone program that would hit weddings and funnerals.
Possibly, although from what I've seen, just a commitment of 12 months would probably be enough for Ukraine to grind Russia to a defeat, because as Russias economy is cracking and it's stockpiles grow empty, it'll lose a lot of it's pushing power on the frontlines, esspecially as Ukraine seems to keep chipping away at Russias fleet of glide bomb carrying aircraft (F16s will expedite that massively). After that, Ukraine seems to be on rather solid ground in terms of it's domestic production of stuff like drones, which are effective enough to enable them to hold territory quite well. Combined, if the prediction is accurate (and 18 months is actually on the long end for Russias economy breaking, although it's about on track for running it's stockpiles dry) then Ukraine could probably hold on the remaining 8 months and keep hitting Russias economic stuff during that time. But don't worry, from what I've seen, a lot of Eastern European countries are committed to supplying Ukraine artillery shells for at least 2 years, with production ramping up significantly, which is definitely long enough to grind Russia into giving up all the territory they've stollen.
@CountDuckEgg You would rather let Russia conquer Ukraine so that then Russian imperialist forces continue further west and invade a NATO country so that NATO countries are at full scale war with Russia which will cost a heck of a lot more money and will mean casualties of NATO soldiers? That's a really strange, illogical attitude. Why would you want to spend even more money later on and have NATO casualties and sacrifice Ukraine in the process instead of saving money and lives by stopping Russian forces now in Ukraine? You sound like someone who would refuse to pay to fix a hole in your house even though it's going to cost you much more money later to repair the damage caused when rain and animals go through the hole into your house.

He’s desperate for a ceasefire. That’s why he “offered” Ukraine to end hostilities if they agreed to give up the occupied territories. And when that ridiculous gambit didn’t work, he sent Orban to meet with Zelenskyy.
False. Russia is crushing the Ukrainian military. Ukraine has lost 500,000 dead, Russia less that 80,000. Putin gave them one last chance to negotiate, and it was refused. Now Ukraine will be destroyed and it’s their fault for refusing multiple offers of a peaceful solution by Russia. The next move will be Russia forcing the complete surrender by Ukraine. Russia just passed Japan as the 4th biggest economy in the world and getting stronger. Their military has tripled in size. Russia has always been winning, and now they have won.

Russia had its first 1917 revolution less than three years into WW1. Maybe the Russian people are not willing to put up with this amount of suffering due to a pointless war for a full three years without revolting. Of course it's true that Russia stayed in WW1 after the first revolution but still the second 1917 revolution indicated that the Russian people really start getting upset when a pointless war goes past three years. Maybe that suggests the possibility of a Russian revolution by late next spring if the war is still going on at that point. Another winter of Russians freezing in the dark in their apartments is not going to make them happy.
I used to read Robert Fox in the Independent. A great journalist. Honest, truthful and incisive. Many journalists could learn from him. Pity that many don't.
Not when compared to Biden and Trump - he's 57. I think to be an old man you need to be in your 70s and there are plenty of 70 year olds fitter and sharper than people in their 30s.
I suggest you bust out a calculator. At the current rate, Russia can keep going for hundreds of years... well... if we entirely ignore economic needs for a labor force etc. Anyway, the point is they aren't running out of men anytime soon. They will run out of money long before they run out of people.
You are correct they won't run out of men, however most of the deaths on the russian side consist of actual military personnel and maybe some reserve soldiers.

They got about 18 months left he says. They said similar statements at the start if the war. How about making it so i can see a doctor in under a month in canada instead of starting ww3.
Everyone with a bit of brains knows that if Europe shows its muscles again and in unity nontheless, the world bleeds. Very few people in the Old World are truly into that.
I've always enjoyed Times Radio's authoritative commentary on Ukraine, however, I switched off when I saw Adam Boulton. If I told you what I thought of him, the comment would be deleted by U tube.
Perhaps but his information about Trump is outdated. The US media is making Trump look like a winner but he's more of a whiner and losing quickly. Biden has appeared in public 18 times in the last few weeks. Trump has held "rallies" to sparse crowds who tend to leave after a few minutes because all he does is talk about himself and how badly he was treated. I have yet to hear one good thing he intends to do for the American people.
For a country to be proud of the fact that they bombed a children’s hospital is truly saying something. I mean, I wouldn’t expect anything less from the same people that called invading the country that they invaded over two years ago a special military operation and said it would only take 10 days, but Ukraine still standing after two years the desperation is truly showing for Russia. Rest in peace to all of those poor victims, and may Ukraine have justice for them and everyone else the Russians have brutally murdered and their needless conquest for land that was never Russias to begin with
Question please. Ukraine has control over its air space, that been the same as any other country. Therefore has it not the legal right to protect the same by inviting outside agents to launch missiles into its own airspace from outside it's borderline?.
Yeah, he is speaking from someone that has live a life of privilege and safety. The Ukrainian people don't have the luxury of just giving up. They know what awaits them if they allow Russians to take control of their country.
By God we need to rebuild our armed services! We’re so busy selling stuff around the world that we’ve mistaken that for capability. We need personnel and top of the line vehicles and hardware, urgently!
Two and a half. The chairwoman of the central bank confirmed it. High interest rates/inflation. Low foreign investment/ Severe labor shortages. It's always the economy which lets down your ambitions.
Well Until Both Ukraine and Russia get to the peace table then this war will amount casualties for years to come, and neither side will run out of equipment and men needed Ukraine will get US Troops and Russia will get Chinese Troops. 50 years later it will still be broadcast here
If ukraine does not prevail what does it mean? It means, that even with all the American and Western arms, America and it's allies cannot defeat Russia. God help us !. At least I can speak a little Russian.
Occupancy is not free. Each time a cost is paid, the governed become either less willing to support or more hostile toward the current regime. Despite two years, Russia has yet to demonstrate a capability to conduct a coherent plan of action able to gain significant territory. Ultimately these cost have already relegated Russia from a first tier power (though they really were not initially). It has destroyed the future of its arms export industry - removed the ability to obtain full market price for resources and decimated an already extremely small demographic cohort. From a pure "power play" perspective, this move was a decade too early, but some leaders want to see results in their lifetime, so here we are. And even if successful, the gain of territory does not materially improve their future, just ensures the seeds of a future civil war because if there was not an Ukrainian identity in the past (which is a false assertion), there is one now as a result of the war. And future occupancy will always come with a fight for a solid decade to come. When a country starts a war it cannot finish - it is indeed going terribly badly.
@opieg7333 It will be extremely terribly bad to believe war casualties are only one-sided. Those pushing and feeding Ukraine to extinction sleep very soundly in their bed 1000s of miles away. Do not forget Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan, and the whole of Central America. These, too, were made to believe they were being driven to better way of life instead of total apocalypse.
Its obvious that the Biden administration has promised weapons systems BUT has slow walked actual delivery. That's because Democrats want a negotiation solution not a war winner solution.
I do not agree with a lot of what was said here, Particularly about China attacking Taiwan by 2027 And also Re Trump been reelected As well as his view on Ukraind cracking. Hmmmmm

They got about 18 months left he says. They said similar statements at the start if the war. How about making it so i can see a doctor in under a month in canada instead of starting ww3.
Heard all this before and Russia are still attacking.
Everyone is flexing their muscles other than Europe and the USA. Is it any wonder we are were we are. Will this Labour party step up to the plate?.
Everyone with a bit of brains knows that if Europe shows its muscles again and in unity nontheless, the world bleeds. Very few people in the Old World are truly into that.
😂😂😂😂😂 Oh, really? 🤓🤓🤓🤓
Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦
I've always enjoyed Times Radio's authoritative commentary on Ukraine, however, I switched off when I saw Adam Boulton. If I told you what I thought of him, the comment would be deleted by U tube.
Fox has got it. He understands the situation as well as anyone does.
Perhaps but his information about Trump is outdated. The US media is making Trump look like a winner but he's more of a whiner and losing quickly. Biden has appeared in public 18 times in the last few weeks. Trump has held "rallies" to sparse crowds who tend to leave after a few minutes because all he does is talk about himself and how badly he was treated. I have yet to hear one good thing he intends to do for the American people.
@@acreguy3156 Thanks for the update!
@@robinstevenson6690 Glad to help, Robin 👍.
Russia doing terribly badly? Really?
Where is all your information coming from. = The Kremlin ?
8:38 Why do we have to watch an old man drinking?
For a country to be proud of the fact that they bombed a children’s hospital is truly saying something. I mean, I wouldn’t expect anything less from the same people that called invading the country that they invaded over two years ago a special military operation and said it would only take 10 days, but Ukraine still standing after two years the desperation is truly showing for Russia. Rest in peace to all of those poor victims, and may Ukraine have justice for them and everyone else the Russians have brutally murdered and their needless conquest for land that was never Russias to begin with
Question please. Ukraine has control over its air space, that been the same as any other country. Therefore has it not the legal right to protect the same by inviting outside agents to launch missiles into its own airspace from outside it's borderline?.
Doesn't understamd the situation if he thi ks Ukraine will break.
Yeah, he is speaking from someone that has live a life of privilege and safety. The Ukrainian people don't have the luxury of just giving up. They know what awaits them if they allow Russians to take control of their country.
Chamberlain is still hovering in the UK
Russia never had a chance.
By God we need to rebuild our armed services! We’re so busy selling stuff around the world that we’ve mistaken that for capability. We need personnel and top of the line vehicles and hardware, urgently!
Russia cant carry on like this forever but these people know absolutely nothing more than anyone else does...
Russia has been doing bad for how many years now?
Ukraine: Help! I’m winning!
Two and a half. The chairwoman of the central bank confirmed it. High interest rates/inflation. Low foreign investment/ Severe labor shortages. It's always the economy which lets down your ambitions.
@@stephenhill545 Really? Because I'm seeing the complete opposite. I'm also looking at nonbiased sources.
You know what im done there is nothing that can ne said
What does Labour`s win mean for Ukraine?Will they be getting more support from the UK or less?
Same.
What are his credentials? What’s his pedigree? He has a way of weaving an odd propagandistic tale that I find disquieting.
Starmer, in my opinion is a very weak man. What has he done whilst in opposition. Zero😮
Not as bad as Ukraine 😅
Well Until Both Ukraine and Russia get to the peace table then this war will amount casualties for years to come, and neither side will run out of equipment and men needed Ukraine will get US Troops and Russia will get Chinese Troops. 50 years later it will still be broadcast here
Were is the aid.f16 s time to get thumb out of your arss NOTO😡
f16s don't fly themselves you know, what do you want NATO to do?
Seems Russia has been defeating NATO in Ukraine terribly badly for the last couple of years.
If ukraine does not prevail what does it mean? It means, that even with all the American and Western arms, America and it's allies cannot defeat Russia. God help us !. At least I can speak a little Russian.
Terribly badly but occupies 30% of Ukraine's territory.
Occupancy is not free. Each time a cost is paid, the governed become either less willing to support or more hostile toward the current regime. Despite two years, Russia has yet to demonstrate a capability to conduct a coherent plan of action able to gain significant territory. Ultimately these cost have already relegated Russia from a first tier power (though they really were not initially). It has destroyed the future of its arms export industry - removed the ability to obtain full market price for resources and decimated an already extremely small demographic cohort. From a pure "power play" perspective, this move was a decade too early, but some leaders want to see results in their lifetime, so here we are. And even if successful, the gain of territory does not materially improve their future, just ensures the seeds of a future civil war because if there was not an Ukrainian identity in the past (which is a false assertion), there is one now as a result of the war. And future occupancy will always come with a fight for a solid decade to come. When a country starts a war it cannot finish - it is indeed going terribly badly.
@opieg7333
It will be extremely terribly bad to believe war casualties are only one-sided. Those pushing and feeding Ukraine to extinction sleep very soundly in their bed 1000s of miles away. Do not forget Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan, and the whole of Central America. These, too, were made to believe they were being driven to better way of life instead of total apocalypse.
This war will be won and lost by economic factors. As the cold war was.
The copium in this comment section is hilarious
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You’ve been saying this for years. It still isn’t true.
Ukraine ❤👍👍
That Biden comment is just ridiculous.
Its obvious that the Biden administration has promised weapons systems BUT has slow walked actual delivery. That's because Democrats want a negotiation solution not a war winner solution.
I do not agree with a lot of what was said here,
Particularly about China attacking Taiwan by 2027
And also Re Trump been reelected
As well as his view on Ukraind cracking.
Hmmmmm
Straight propaganda
💪🇺🇦🤝🇫🇷👏👊
🇩🇰
Robert Fox, just another in a long line of Russian appeasers, this mans has past his usefulness.🙃
yup...if you're going to talk on the radio, be sure to maintain poor posture and keep covering your mouth with your fingers as you speak.
