      Russia is convincing itself more and more that it's succeeding while the rest of us clearly observe that they are failing. Nature abhors a vacuum. At some point their bubble of delusion has to pop. As long as Ukraine keeps taking out oil refineries, this process will accelerate. It's a winning strategy.

    Let's not forget that per Putin's decree Ukrainian passports are declared invalid in the occupied territories after June 30. Ukrainians who haven't accepted a Russian passport by then will be considered stateless and illegal aliens in their own country. Given that not long ago Russian commanders told their soldiers to never even speak to the local population without explicit order because the locals allegedly report "everything" to the Ukrainian troops, it is safe to assume a large portion of the population in the occupied territories is strongly opposed to the invaders. It worries me a lot to see practically nobody here in the west talking about this. Are we again sitting on our hands, hoping that nothing will happen, waiting until thousands (or many more) Ukrainians are being deported to some "filtration camps" in Siberia?

    • @WatjehtEuchditan
      @WatjehtEuchditan Před měsícem

      I forgot to write this: The prospects for Ukrainian men in these territories are truly terrifying. They could accept the Russian passport, only to be sent directly to the front to fight as "meat" in suicide missions against their own people. This is not purely speculation, Putin has done it already at the very beginning of the invasion when he announced the general mobilization in the newly annexed "people's republics". If they refuse the Russian citizenship, who knows what's going to happen to them. Or they could try to flee westwards - but for that they would have to cross the front line, scorched earth, minefields and what not included. And likely the Russians trying to prevent them from reaching free Ukraine, so that's probably not really an option. Absolutely horrifying. Oh and Putin already declared his intention to repopulate Mariupol with 300.000 Russians. It seems this creep really wants to be remembered as a second Stalin.
      Man I hope this is just me being paranoid...

      It is safe to assume a large percentage of that population will be liquidated and go through much worse before the end too. But, “oh no, their next leader might be worse” or “oh no will other kleptocrats bank with us less if we transfer the frozen profits from Russian interest?” (not even the frozen funds). Pathetic.

    • @The_ZeroLine
      @The_ZeroLine Před měsícem +13

      The only way the West even gets away with the frozen money thing is because politicians say “well it’s very complicated” (a transparent deflection), b) the media helps them out by spending more time on “the risks” of doing it then the endless reasons it should have already been done and c) the media and public seem to forget about it between each of the “decisions” which are like “a commission is studying how we could do it” or “we must determine how it can be used.” It’s all so infuriating and pathetic.

    Ukraine is much stronger now than it was in 2014, militarily, economically, institutionally, and in terms of its national identity. If Russia had conducted a full-scale invasion in 2014, Ukraine's allies would probably have been more active but Ukraine would have been much less able to resist. On the other hand, Belarus and the Russian public would have been much more resistant to the invasion back then, too, so maybe it doesn't matter.

    Thanks for doing this piece, Georgijs.
    As an old man who grew up with the threat of Russia as an aggressor with Nukes from the late ‘50s onwards, who met younger people who had made it out of the Soviet sphere and who told me about the Kremlin’s views of the West, I have always kept a sideways eye on how they did their business and how they constantly infiltrated and created unrest on the global stage.
    Provoking uprisings here and there, using propaganda to destabilise societies, arming small separatist groups, creating doubt and pointing the finger of guilt at whoever they chose to weaken at any given time.
    This has always been their playbook but the increase in saturation of the media space that the WWW has made possible has turbocharged their ability to manipulate entire populations in a way that was never possible previously.
    I completely agree with the ISW’s report and it’s conclusions.
    The one way to resolve the problem that Russia represents as a nation is to offer no option but for them to withdraw in the face of overwhelming opposition.
    That and to say “EFF YOU” to their agents of chaos at every single opportunity.
    I try to do my part, algorithm notwithstanding. I hope that the many others that I see doing the same will also continue to do so. It is a small thing but never as necessary as it is now.

With a small addition that this time the adversary has gone down a strict (szcizo)fascist route and are allied with all autocracies similar to pre-WW2 Germany. With a global info-war propaganda that would make Goebbels proud indeed this time.
      I suggest to watch channel Ryan McBeth (Programming), especially the livestream of today (31/3) for insight how the latter works. And your own domestic documentary "Against all enemies", out two days ago.

In November I'll vote for Biden. I disagree with him on many things and normally I would vote for a third party candidate if I don't really like either party's candidate. But in my lifetime a third party candidate has never won the presidency. I won't waste my vote this year.

    I thank you Georgijs for taking the time to sort through articles and presenting them to us. I mostly watch Ukraine focused videos these days, many of them. Usually 10 to 15 a day. But I know you explain thing in simple terms. You follow experts so we don't have to. So when you post a 50 minute video, I know it will be well worth MY time to watch it.
    And the community that's grown around Ukraine Matters is amazing. I spend lots of time reading comments and I see many from your community in several others I follow.
    I've seen how the misinformation affects people. I see trolls spreading pootin's talking points, sowing doubts, and dividing the west, maybe especially the US. I deal with it daily. This article gives me more insight into how to deal with it. Please keep doing what you're doing. I'll keep spreading the word.

    Excellent paper! That said, I tend to disagree on one point: the European strong tendency to stop the fighting even at a high cost is less a russian narrative, it's more a genuine conclusion of WWII, kind of proven by 70 years of peace. The mistake here is to not recognize that this strategy doesn't work with Putin. Not at all.

    What a BRILLIANT Article and talk. Just loved it for it's comprehensiveness, and clarity, and perfect understanding. This is an article that needs to be translated into many languages, and aggressively disseminate this info, not only to decision makers, but to even spend large amounts of money to every media network to carry it to the people in every country, by not just broadcasting, but more, by debates, talks, seminars, in society, in colleges, everywhere. A significant effort being taken to communicate this well-rounded clarity even to the lowest common denominator.

    If someone lives and breathes a subject for months on end (and are intelligent + have good judgement), they’re more qualified to speak on a topic than say a former ambassador or general who is barely paying attention to the war. And the latter are often asked for opinions on the war.
    BTW, tons of people have been saying the same thing about Russia’s information operation. So, I don’t think you needed to cite the ISW to prove that this opinion was valid.
