- “The Ukrainians aren’t winners, but the Russians sure as hell aren’t winners in that environment.”
Trump and JD Vance “really don’t care” about coordinating the Ukraine plan with American allies but their inaction won't threaten the Poles and the Baltics, says political scientist Ian Bremmer.

NO WAY UKRAINE should give up territory AND people to Russia! Breaking this international law would trigger wars and crises all around the world following Russia´s path. You cannot allow Russia that but deny it any other country and China is just waiting for that to attack Taiwan.
Supporting Ukraine by ALL means WITHOUT any restrictions to defeat Russia is the only way to save Ukraine and secure Europe and the whole world!!!
You are out of your mind !
Also, Ukraine is a sovereign nation and can teach the Ukrainian language and only the Ukrainian language ; it is their right as a free and sovereign nation. What if the USA decides to teach English and only English in their public schools, would Mexico or other Spanish speaking nations attack USA because their people are under attack or feel alienated ? This war has gone on for long enough; people died and families lost loved ones.
Yep, we don't want that. But Ukraine is losing. There may be a point where they make territorial concessions rather than collapsing entirely. Just ask the draft dodgers... Ukrainians don't REALLY want to fight and die for their country. Only very few, and they are beyond exhausted.
@@DmitriyK12 Actually, while Russia is exaggerating on these claims, it's perfectly reasonable to expect tuition in your native language. And quite a large part of Ukrainians speak Russian as a native language. It's not always practical to teach native languages in schools, for example in the US, but there are attempts all over the US to at least increase bilingual teaching, for example in Spanish, French, Navajo or Hawaiian and others.

you can weave any kind of rationalization allowing Russia to keep parts of Ukraine, even calling it an "asymmetric loss for Russia", but the bottom line is that Russia wanted Ukraine's land and they got some.

No that Europe spends more on defence is not because of Trump, but because of the Ukraine war.
True. Increased NATO spending started before Trump. He's had some influence but not as much as people say.
Both Trump and Obama were urging European countries to increase the spending and take Russia as a threat. Obama got politely ignored and Trump got smugly ignored.

Giving Russia Ukrainian territory will not make Ukraine more secure. Ukraine’s security depends on its ability to defend its border against Russia.
if you watched Ben Hodges videos and opinion, there is no point in wining if international law is left broken and a precedent is created. It is important to send the message that might does not make it right. Of course once the territory returned, hostages liberated, reparations paid, investments in Ukraine can take place, integration in EU and Nato will make ireversable the whole. One of the first points on the schedule is secure the border of course.
So?
Being "America first" and isolationist is like withdrawing from the Olympics and still expecting to win the gold.
Dwight Eisenhower wrote; "If in 10 years, all American troops stationed in Europe for national defense purposes have not been returned to the United States,” he wrote of NATO in 1951, “then this whole project will have failed." Thats not isolationist, it's "non-colonial".
no, it is a sane response to decades of failed Western intervention. Why should anyone continue a policy that leads to failure or continue listening to losers who failed in every war for the last 30 years?
Mr. Trump isn't an isolationist. He wasn't his first time in the W.H. and there is no reason to believe he'd be any different today. As for the Olympics? I don't think he tried out for them. Trump isn't a fool. He understands America's place on this Globe. He just loves the USA and so he should, as does J.D. Vance, and frankly, myself too.

The only thing promised, was "assistance.' I think we can safely say the US has done that.
In the US, neither the George H.W. Bush administration nor the Clinton administration was prepared to give a military commitment to Ukraine, and they did not believe the US Senate would ratify an international treaty and so the memorandum was adopted in more limited terms.
Yes we did
Why do you think Russia is suddenly wanting to talk? It's because the tide has turned.

They weren't of any use as Moscow had the launch codes.
@@fatalexception1269 "Launch codes" are just software. Ukrainian engineers are clever enough that they could have disabled the launch codes and written new software for those missiles. "Prior to the German invasion, Ukraine and UIPhT was home to some of the top physicists working on nuclear science in the entire Soviet Union. While the war and German occupation meant that the core effort to develop an atomic bomb would take place in Russia, rather than Ukraine, Ukrainian scientists like F. Lange were involved in the Soviet nuclear complex and had a hand in its success." (Wilson Center)
@@RichardTaylor1630 not quite. It's not software, it's firmware.....research it, its embedded microcode and not a solution unless you replace the hardware.
Ukraine believed America when our ambassadors and leader told them we would protect them when faced with a threat of aggression.
Let's set this record straight: Ukraine declared itself to be a state without nuclear weapons, not to seek possession of, develop or acquire nuclear wespons already in 1990. This was ratified in 1991, by the Ukrainian Rada, when the Soviet Union disintegrated. Yet somehow it took until 1994 to agree to remove the nuclear weapons they had stated wasn't theirs, they didn't control, and thst they did not want. The US state department was so irritated they likened it to blackmail. So let's not fantasize about retaining weapons that weren't theirs.
J D Vance says that he is religious. He says that he doesn't care about the lives of Ukrainian women and children. He shows no mercy for Ukraine. He should understand that what goes around comes around. Vance should know that God will show no mercy on Vance and his family.
Strong words israel.
Firstly do not speak for God - his all encompassing mercy is not for you to endow.
Secondly - there is no God that you can comprehend if you post in this manner.
Thirdly - there is no God!
Vance is an amoral sycophant.
Vance has actually not said that he "doesn't care about the lives of Ukrainian women and children." He just complains about the cost for the USA to protect them. In my view, Vance is persuadable to come around to support for Ukraine as he becomes better educated, just as Mike Johnson did.

Bremmer starts off with the premise that there is no scenario in which Ukraine can win back all its territory and moves from that to say a deal has to be done with Russia - which itself is based on the premise that some sort of lasting deal can be done with Russia on the basis that Russia will think it has paid "asymmetrically" to get what it already has of Ukraine. There are three assumptions there and I don't think any of them are correct.
I believe you are right!
Ukraine isn't begging for help; we just demand justice! In 1991, we were the second-largest holder of nuclear weapons and sacrificed our own safety for global security. We have an agreement signed by an American President that obliges the USA to protect our borders and keep our people safe. And yet, we are far from safe now... 😢

I find this view to be short sighted. Firstly, Trump agrees with Putin that the EU needs to be minimised/ neutralised. Both of them want this to happen at any cost to the peoples of Europe. Secondly, any failure to help Ukraine to "win" plays straight into Putins gradualist ratchetting takeover of the whole former USSR. It isn't a question of Russia "not winning". It's a question of Ukraine not losing. And Ukraine will never stop retaking Crimea, whatever the interviewee feels is "one of those things that happen".
Absolutely. What seems to be lacking in all these 'views' is what the Ukrainians want to happen with their country. It's up to them what they will accept- not us, not NATO and not the USA. They will not, ever, cede territory to Russia, even if they have to fight with sticks.
The sensible view now is for Russia to be granted the land it feels to be rightfully its own, and for the slightly smaller Ukraine to obtain the democratic freedom it apparently wants.
I agree. Agreements to help defend what is left of Ukraine won't be worth the paper they are written on if previous agreements are anything to go by. Few in Eastern Europe will feel reassured, and Russian interference in the political narrative of Europe will continue.
The price in Russia is being paid by the average person and until they, or the Oligarchs, have had enough of Putin's regime this imperialist expansion will continue, in Europe, in Africa and in the Middle East.
Russia is on the verge of losing this war. They are running out of the equipment to wage war. Within a year or two, their ability to wage war will be exhausted, and their economy will be in shreds. If we want to end this quickly, we should supply the Ukrainians with the equipment they need in the quantities they need and stop putting restrictions on how they should use it. Do that and Russia will cease to be a problem for several generations.

Trump looks at Nato membership like a membership dues to Mar a Lago golf club. That money is a PLEDGE on a percentage of a country's GDP that is allocated to defense spending, 2%. It isn't mandatory. What the US has over there in Nato countries isn't costing anymore than what it would cost if the US forces were in the US.
The land the bases are on is provided by the host county, rent-free. The troops get paid wherever they are. The equipment has to be maintained wherever it is. The training costs are the same wherever they take place.
The "riding" on the coattails is pure BS. The US troops being there act as a deterrence to Russia. He can't force a country to spend more of their money (budget) on defense. It is after all their money.
This is a cloying attempt to try and make appeasement look reasonable.

@@sonofsomerset1695 they're being slaughtered to occupy land they have no chance of holding.
@@sonofsomerset1695 you can't honestly believe that.
@@tomw.6757 I can, because I can my information from credible sources, not propaganda media like the Times.
@@sonofsomerset1695 so where are u Ivan cheering for genocydal war criminals ? did you get your Lada and potatoes ? toilet ?
NO, Russia can't have more than they had when they started the invasion in 2014.
The Trump Derangement Syndrome continues on Times Radio
You not very bright are you!!!
@@humphreybradley3060 Just because you dont know and/or cant handle the truth, doesnt make other people that are more aware than you, dumb.
I haven't heard from Vance or Trump saying they would stop all support to Ukraine. I don't necessarily think these fellows know the truth.
So much heroic talk from Times Radio but the war goes on.
That heroic talk from Russia 1 tv: We will take Kyiv in just three days. Ha ha 😂 🤣 😆 😄 😅
Dogs are barking but caravan goes on.
Ohhhhh the extent to which Times will go in order to cope... it is hilarious...
Not very bright are you!
@@humphreybradley3060 brighter than you, my dear NAFO fanboy...
Bizarre statement. Imagine if you lived a life where you had to express yourself like an adult. It would be interesting to see if you'd manage.
This will isolate the US from the world
Why do you keep deleting my comments
Freedom of expression should rule, provided common courtesy is respected, however bots and trolls could be removed🙏
@@WellbeingToPeace I said Russia lost the moment they invaded, and they deleted it?
@@WellbeingToPeace 👍
YTs comments have been broken, even more, the last two days. People are really fed up about it. I believe they have switched to AI moderation, and it is not working properly
@@rmdomainer9042 It is not working since many months. The threatening comments continue to be generated. Keeping screenshots🙏
no mention that europes total spend on Ukraine when you include economic and refugee support is a multiple of the US total spend
Ukraine has asked for military support from Europe, not "refugee" support. Thats a red herring claim.
@@icu17siberiathey need both. They need money to keep their economy going
Scary times...

You're talking poopoo
We NATO including United States must stick with Ukraine it's necessary
Saying Trump will want credit for a stronger NATO is a bit like a robber saying, “I threatened that place so much they bought cameras.”
