- For the West to be effective nation-states must act quickly and in coordination. Britain’s decisive support for Ukraine makes EU foreign policy look defunct. To discuss how the West has reacted to Putin’s invasion Steven Edginton is joined by the editor of the online site The Article and former Telegraph journalist Daniel Johnson.

Russians retreating forword. Ukrainians advancing backwords. Logic for our times.
These are peak cope. Unreal how deluded these idiots are.
depends on what are his, Putin's, goals and whether he can hold them especially without a popular explosion in his own country.

Putin has 80%+ approval rating at this time.
Inteŕest rate is coming down. The Ruble is strong.
Income from exports is through the roof considering sanctions.
Putin loses now only if he mishandles things desperately.
He might, but is it likely?
Bene: Putin is painting-the-tape.
Base rate interest dropping down to 17% -- sheesh.
Putin has income he can't spend -- rather like a narco-baron.
It now sits, same as box-top coupons, piled up in 'Putin's garage.'
The Ukranians themselves are saying their defensive lines in Donbas are collapsing. What is this guy smoking?
this poor guy smoking weeds....
@@shuibibr not the good kind obviously
Holy crap after listening to this guy I realize he lives in the rarefied air of his own gas cloud.
Mark my words, keep this post, he’s already wrong after just a few days !!
When did the Ukrainian government say that their defensive lines in Donbas are collapsing? Because they aren't actually.
One region.
What happened in Kiev, Chernihiv, Mykolaiv and Kharkiv?
Also in the last 48 hours Ukraine have been pushing closer to Kherson.
Fact is Russia is occupying less Ukraine territory now than a month ago.
And the lends lease weapons havent even arrived yet, Russia is going to get a severe bloody nose over the summer.
this an appalling amount of BS-who is this man?
What has he smoked? He is up in the blue. Totally ignorant to the reality.
He is watching, and contributing to, the version of events presented by Westerrn media, which is totally at odds with reality.
Sorry this man is a lunatic, there is great support for Russian in putin, watching the great celebrations in Moscow of the end of the second world war and the price they payed, they paid, on sky news a hour long documentary on the great patriot war
Just an arrogant member of the establishment
Russia is winning hands down ,which makes a mockery of the caption.Russia should not negotiate just take the land. The guest is really delusional.
He`s in for a shock.
I myself, have NEVER respected Henry Kissinger. The blood on that man's hands is immeasurable.
Kissinger is a butcher and maniac of the worst kind.
And I’m far from being a pasifist.
@@JRBendixen Agreed. Why anyone would speak of respecting Kissinger baffles me. It's like praising Mengela for his experimental prowess
Daniel Johnson should be a chief expert on CNN. He's views on current war are .... PREPOSTEROUS
That’s about right. A shining example of everything wrong in the “journalistic “ community. Well said!
Just seen a video from Patrick Lancaster, after many on The Duran, and these two channels are on a different planet to this one.
Almost every media outlet supports that war. But, with few exceptions, real people in the comment sections do not.
no, exactly the opposite, he is an ideologically charged liar - he did not present a single fact correctly
@@NorfolkSceptic and Lancaster as well as theDuran belong to the real world, jerks like this man Johnson do not
Is this gentleman looking at the same war I'm looking at? Ukraine 'beating' Russia? As someone said below 'what's he smoking?'
News flash: Ukraine is not beating Russia
Oh yeah. It does. Big time. Just a matter of time, baby.
@@AG-gr4fm This war is making Russia stronger is it? It has humiliated and isolated itself by reminding everyone of its rotten corruption.

Why does one journalist interviewing another merit an hour of my time?
Ever heard hitchens being interviewed?
It's going to be embarressing when the Ukraine military collapses soon......
They're getting hammered.
Yes, it will be so great soon, when that undisciplined rabble will fall apart in front of our glorious army and we will return home crowned in glory.
- Both sides, September 1914.
And then he'll move onto the Baltic States, Poland, Bulgaria, Romania, Czech and Slovakia and, of course, the old Eastern Germany!
didn't they say that 5 months and 27 days ago (ie finish in 3 days). Like I said, Ukraine may not be winning but they surely are giving them hell.
Someone want to tell this guy Russia is winning? These 'people' live in a parallel universe.
@@KASPA-KEY they are rebuilding mariopol right now. They destroyed Grozny and rebuilt it even better than it had been and now the Chechens are some of the most loyal to Moscow. Russia has been taking more and more ground every day. In what universe is that losing?

Your comment is even more brilliant than the "brilliant" remarks of the interviewee. Russia is moving forward both militarily in Ukraine but also economically despite the "crushing" sanctions of the US and its vassals and doormats. So, truly Russia is "losing".
Another rich man who would not be affected by gas/oil and food shortages so quite happy to cut off supplies with winter only 6 months away
not bothered by endless immigration and white on white crime by royals, police or courts.....all very odd....
What’s going on? 👀 What world are they living in. This is crazy town.
I listened for 5 minutes and realized he knows absolutely nothing about the reality of the world.
In which reality are Ukraine beating Russia?
So what do when Putin decides Ukraine isn't enough and goes for the next former USSR country like the Bsltic States, Romania or Bulgaria?
Russia is retreating further into Ukrainian lines. Russia has no more missles, no more troops, running out of tanks. Except for the fact they havent even used 1/8 th of their full capability. 🤣🤣
This lie of Russia losing has a limit, like when Putin is having a vodka in Kiev, wtf are they going to say, ooops, never saw that coming
Got a reliable citation for this amazing insight no one else has?
Umm, T64's been used they must really want to keep the good stuff back.
@@turningpoint4238 They use the old tanks to secure the large territory (20% of Ukraine - a good half of England) gained.

Fine example of an alternative universe
what is wrong with this opinion?
@@gordonrobertson272 Nothing wrong with it Gordon. But I'm afraid it is far from the reality on the ground.
This guy lives in a parallel universe or thinks we are all stupid.
Daniel is unaware that Europe was importing met coal from Russia for the purposes of keeping its blast furnaces running.
Only a trivial amount of steam coal came from Russia. Met coal is so expensive that no-one ever uses it to raise steam.
As you'd expect, the average talking-head conflates the two. Greens didn't object much to met coal because its critical -- and all in all -- minor.
Met coal is also known as coking coal -- and the deposits of met coal in the Donbass are what makes it so industrially important -- going back a century.
Mariupol was a Steel City -- same as Pittsburgh or Gorky/ Nizhny Novgorod or Essen.
A good point, much misunderstood.
Thankyou, I did not understand the coal dependence before.
Or Newcastle or Woolongong !
Our journalists should be ashamed of themselves. I can't believe I've listened to an hour of absolute lies. I want my hour back! It's time the UK focused on the UK
The best journalist’s opinion I have heard so far. The best hour I’ve spent in the last 3 months. And please don’t try to insult me. I’m an American citizen woman who’d grown up in the USSR/Ukraine, with Jewish background (speaking of a thick skin).

@@thinkerly1 oh darn, I take it all back
Money talk, bullshit walk, he talks according to what he was paid.
I dont see Ukraine beating Russia. I see the opposite, Russia keeps gaining territory.
Word. I don't get what are they trying to achieve with these optimistic lies. My people died 30 years ago to have democracy and truth
I see the same and very worry about it.
The more cities that fall to Russia, the more they report Ukraine is winning. Most bizarre propaganda since chemical Alli was on national t.v in Iraq calmy stating there was no invasion whilst American tanks were moving in the background
Your views very limited. Do not fear. Wait until the newest tranche of advanced weapons arrive and are deployed. The Ukrainians have proven to be very facile with whatever they have at hand. Currently, Russian artillery outreaches Ukrainians weapons. That will soon change. They are giving up territory as necessary to preserve their lives until they have integrated the new weapons.
@@briandbeaudin9166 😅 "Dude stop embarrassing yourself"
I hope Ukraine won’t humiliate Mr. Johnson and bleed their last blood to fulfill his wish, beat Putin. I think the reporter should do a follow up interview in 3 months and I wish hear more insights from Mr. Daniel Johnson.
It is not something that Ukraine is capable of doing
Well it’s months later and yes a follow up would be nice as it seems Ukraine is close to defeat,Europe will be short on gas to heat their homes and many will have to endure freezing temperatures this winter.
Putin will not budge on this one .
He feels backed into a corner and will do anything to send a message to the west.
China and India are now closer to Russian than the west.
There seems to be a disconnect from reality by these pundits. What planet are they currently on?
@@rottenrobbie66 I am sure our request for a follow up interview will fall on deaf ears, they moved on, even if they do it, they will talk about how desperate Putin is and that's why he fired two missiles into Poland, that's how desperate Putin is!
Propaganda 101.
Russia is Winning and has been Winning since day 1 of this military operation.
The most polite thing that can be said about this guy is he hasn't done his homework. 🙄
:D :D :D

Tell us what he was wrong about instead of puffing hot air.
@@Rittmester where do we begin HAHAHA
Madness!!!!!
My word this got embarassing. Even BEFORE we got to "so strong has Boris' leadership been; so convincing for most people". I feel dirty even typing that.
We shouldn't be negotiating while Russia occupies large territories of Ukraine, we should negotiate after it occupies even more lol. What a time to be alive when this dude is considered an expert.
It's all one continent
@@keelyevans4695 and?
he didn't say that
This so-called expert is an obvious lost liberal fool in denial believing fake news from CNN and BBC
He was quoting a German view which he considers to be false, basically considering other people's ideas but then proving them wrong - as Matt Cable says below, "He didn't say that". It's called fair and balanced discussion, and it's very important.
Russia isn't losing wtf,how could it,there advancing everyday zelenksy be a man and pull your troops out,get to the peace table
Real men don't back down!
And Russia's already lost much more that it can possibly gain. One man's folly.
Rarely I hear so crazy approach. Hopefully the European leaders doesn't take advice for such fools.
European leaders are crazy.
Troll?
How can Ukraine continue something which hasn't been started yet?
crazzy...
This man is mad.
Calling Mr Putin a loser... Poor DJ; he is a comedian, albeit not funny; more like an aspiring standup comedian in cheap bars, where nobody finds his jokes funny.
Daniel Johnson's speech misses the fact that Russia is winning this war overwhelmingly. I dont know where is getting the Koolaid
Russia may have strategic and tactical gains , but it will never win the war.
@Christina Evans not journalists, though, they are novelists.
crazzy guy...
Putin has lost. Deal with it.
The last arrow in his quiver is his artillery arm.
The American MLRS eats howitzers for breakfast. That's explicitly what it was designed to do.
When first used, (1991), the MLRS destroyed entire artillery brigades with a single volley.
Adjacent brigades, witnessing, fled -- officers, first.
The MLRS out ranges ALL Russian artillery... including rocket artillery.
He should have taken kool-aid from Jim Jones.
That’s a big if!
If my mom had balls she would have been my dad.
That’s a big if!
I like the interview.
Agree with majority.
However it looks to me like Russia are achieving, what they set out to achieve. I know this comment will be disliked.
Let's hope for peace asap. War is evil and it's the young working and middle class that die.
The Russians are winning and the Ukrainian army is on the verge of collapse.
Whatever lies Western leaders and mainstream media want to put out,
that’s the reality of the situation.
Western interference has achieved little apart from prolonging the conflict, thus increasing the destruction of Ukraine and the number of lives lost on both sides.
A decisive Russian victory is now inevitable and having been forced to expend far more in blood and treasure than they were anticipating, the Russians will take far more than they were originally planning too.
I suspect they’ll annexe the whole of Eastern Ukraine, the entire Black sea coast and turn what’s left of the country into a demilitarised client state.
Yeah, Russia revised it's objectives then adopted new tactics. It's learned through early mistakes, just as it did during WWII. Sadly I think it will prevail and Putin wont stop until Putin has what he wants.
I liked it! 😀 I don't think this gentleman is looking at the same war I'm looking at.
Well, if Ukraine had the weapons it needed that wouldn’t have happened. That’s the central point of this interview pretty much. So hopefully we can reverse the damage like we did in Kiev area. We will win if most western leaders act like Boris in regards to Ukraine. 🇺🇦💛🇬🇧
The merkan led we$+ (nato) have been the aggressors in UKR since before 2014. (Puts in) has turned the tables on the marionette leaders. They're noses are growing.
Haha I'm gonna watch this in a month.
I am - and Russia is looking worse and worse every day,
Really? As for me- better then EU or US
The EU showed its mettle during the Balkan war, which went on for five years right on the doorstep of the EU which chose paralysis rather then live up to its stated ambitions.
@Anonymous Bosch and then serbia had to commit genocide...
I think a pretty core part of the EU's founding ambitions was to prevent WWIII from breaking out in Europe.
@Anonymous Bosch that's horse manure and nothing to do with the OP's post.
@Einherjar DK Better we had free trade and border movement and not bog down everyone with detailed rules and regulations which just make burecrats rich and stop small business from innovating and making and supplying goods and services..
The EU showed it's mettle by bleating "save us, America", and guilting Bill Clinton into the war. "No boots on the ground" was the only way he could convince Congress to pay for it.
If Ukraine continues beating Russia?? Peak delusion.
I don't understand how people can think Russia is losing. It's really weird.
Yes, if this bloke is a representation of British middle class opinion, then great disappointment beckons. Although given his analysis of the German Green Party, its entirely possible that he's completely bonkers.
@@Fanakapan222 He is living in a fantasy world
They watch the news.
Russia is maybe winning in some aspects on the battlefield but it has already lost the war. It has lost the war the moment civilized world came together. Sanctions take time but they will bite hard. Russia will not be able to take care of their own people let alone support and rebuild the annexed territories. People will wake up and start asking questions when their living standard drops enough. Some countries that currently support this war, particularly some African countries, will change their stance as soon as food shortages start.
@@hhKJgf1M8a0rzt8hP Objectively sanctions have completely failed. China and India are buying Russian oil, Europe is still buying Russian gas (in Roubles), The Rouble is higher against the dollar and the Euro than it was at the start of this, Their inflation spiked initially but has now gone back to normal and they have actually just cut interest rates.
What has happened is that the west has been shown to be a paper tiger. Russia has plenty of fertiliser, oil, gas, food and will be exporting it while we have shortages and huge inflation. I'm English and don't like it but that is the reality.
And for this guy to say China is splitting from Russia is frankly delusional, they just held joint military operations over the East China Sea and Sea of Japan, sending joint bomber formations. The Wester press are frankly living in a fantasy world at this point.
In the UK we free press....we just tell them what they can and can't say or write or say
What this man is talking about? Ukraine beating Russia? Is he just part of western propaganda, or he is just senile?I have a hard time to understand where is coming from?
It's magical thinking.
This is what I want to be true, so this is what is true.
Pathetic, really.
This channel doesn't have any content
Our occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan were perpetual failures, despite the initial invasions having been successful. Nearly everyone involved kept getting re-elected or re-appointed to prominent positions. Our destruction of Libya had disastrous consequences that can also be regarded as a failure. Nearly everyone involved got re-elected or re-appointed to prominent positions. The senators, the house of reps, the cabinet members, the presidents, the Vice President. Probably some pentagon higher-ups.
Back in the day the war in Vietnam was a lot of fun. We stopped that one. Time to put a national coalition together again.
That one went on for at least twenty years. America had varying degrees of involvement. And managed to bomb Laos and Cambodia a lot.
@@macrosense And just think of all the weapons development that took place, exciting isn't it !!!
I detect some sarcasm in your comment. (I guess promotions are the way to go in order to conceal or disguise failure).
The degree of arrogant cynical certainty in these posts, that has metastasized in what formerly was a thinking progressivism, is lazy and obnoxious. It is absurd for these clowns to claim the anti war victories of the 1960-70s as their pwn.
Does it ever occur to Brits that the reason the Anglosphere is out of step with the rational members of the EU is that it is mesmerized by propaganda, weighed down by faded glory and completely out of touch with reality?
Not really. Since the people pushing this stuff are in no way British or American patriots, they are neocon globalists. Actual British, American, Canadian etc nationalists are overwhelmingly opposed to this war.
no it occurs to us the other way VDL " we are backing ukraine" EU 100billion euros paid to russia 2 billion to ukraine , if thats a friend who wants an enemy
This guy actually is putting sense to a lot of what is happening now with Ukraine. 👍👍👍
I was just thinking that...and 6 months ago. Impressive.
Is D. Johnson living in a parallel univers?
5 months on from this, would be interesting to have follow up.
I agree with him on some of this. But, how the heck can this guy ADMIRE Henry Kissinger, an actual war criminal? How does that endorsement not disqualify his opinion by default?
No. Any opinion of his should be evaluated on its merits, not your virtue-signalling. On Ukraine, he's completely right. On other things, Cambodia for instance, he was disastrously wrong.
@@davidwright8432
It's doubtful he's virtue signaling. Kissinger is a war criminal and no one should use him as a reference for anything.
ANYONE WHO ADMIRES HENRY KISSENGER IS GUARANTEED TO END UP AS A CRITIC OF JEWS IN EVERY SENSE. SEND THE ASHKENAZI JEWS BACK TO SIBERIA, KHAZARIA.
Fully endorse this comment
A lot of people admired Henry Kissing etc. He was an impressive mind for many years. He seems to have gone off the deep end.

Can anyone see the size of that 'IF'. In the West we are brilliant at punditry - it makes us feel as though we are actually doing something.
If my aunty had testicles she would be my uncle.. ..
Clueless guy doesn't know that 75% of Russians support the war and the fact that they would take anything short of annexing Ukraine as a humiliation. Next time, ask someone in the know.
Fully agreed...
But but.. Western media says that Russian forces are being decimated and running back to the border for the last 3 months , they say that 90% of Russia wants putin out of office and are against the war !
They better prepare for the humiliation then.
@@RazorMouth don't dream. It's a hybrid war between Russia and the West. Ukraine will be liberated from Western occupation.

I’m from Dk and we align with the US, Germany, the north and France in that order.
But Germany has been a complete disaster on Russia politics and Germany keeps failing. So German/DK relations will be ajusted.
Russian TV keep on threatening that they Will wage war on a number of countries and stated Berlin Will be conquered by Them in the near future.
And yet The giant German weapons production firms has been held back by their politicians.
It’s a fail of gigantic proportions.
German weaponsproduction alone could beat Russia alone. Yet Germany has wasted a year doing absolutely nothing confronted with open threats to Its security.
I can keep on going, on the negative side. So let me end This with saying. Germany faced with a gas crisis constructed a large LNG harbor in under a year. Imagine What it could do if their weapons production was set free.
Germany want even pay for it themselves, countries like Denmark, Holland and other would willingly share some of the cost.
Its only German Will that is needed.

The Russian Army is a joke. It took them 4 years to take Chechnya when their weapons were in better shape and the government was infinitely more corrupt. They can’t produce any more modern weapons and they are going through those they have at a stagger rate. Russia invaded Finland with 750,000 troops and lost 375,000 when Finland had 3.5 million citizens. They fought to an effective draw. Russia invaded Ukraine with 180,000 troops.

Had Europe stood with Croatia and Bosnia 1991-1995 as it stands with Ukraine now, instead to encourage Greater-Serbian lies about Jasenovac (which was a bad place but far, far from what Serbs are saying), firstly:
Putin would have more respect for the West and NATO and probably wouldn't dare to commit this lunacy;
Secondly: there would not be Russian allies in Serbia and Bosnia now, threatening NATO southern flank.
Yes.

The term Special Military Operation does mean a huge difference from calling it a War. That is the Russian law aspect.
True. It means no levée en masse. Putin dreads pulling that lever.
Looks an awful lot like war to me.
@@blueberry-ri7eb I think the main reason is that if it is officially called a war that's a legal force majeure meaning that any contract or agreement can become void. They are trying to prevent chaos.
Right, people act as if it's some ridiculous thing, but the US has done the same thing, because declaring war requires speciifc legal mechanisms to play out. That's why the Korean War was called a "police action" for example.
It's hard to know which wishes more harm on the EU, Russia or the UK.
I think that would be the EU elites!
Russia.
Both
Not hard at all. The British "elites" have always looked down their noses at continentals and wish only harm on other European countries. Russia on the other hand has always tragically looked up to Europeans and look at the good it did them.
Steven Edginton is one of the UK’s most knowledgeable, articulate, balanced and impressive journalists of his generation. I foresee him becoming a household name, attracting the sort of respect which few reporters could hope for. Another Hitchens, although more a Peter Hitchens rather than a Christopher.
Hear, hear. And this format is great for him. One hour, so he can ask his questions and then let his guests speak.
@Anthony Morris Could I suggest that with HMG having created a 'Stand with Ukraine' frenzy in order to cover mishandling of the so called pandemic, with its attendant fiscal disaster, that this fellow Edginton is merely laying the foundations for a British 'Dolchstoßlegende' ? Having put too many eggs into its support the Ukraine pudding, the government will now spin the idea that it could have worked, but those dastardly and cowardly Europeans put the spoke in.
@@Fanakapan222 My view (as an Australian, not a Brit) is that Boris Johnson did the right thing in arming Ukraine to the teeth, and thereby shaming the United States and the rest of Europe into following suit. I don’t know what domestic political motives he had for doing the right thing, but, even if his motives were shabby, that does not make it any less the right thing to have done.
However, that said, the explanation which I find more convincing (albeit from a very considerable distance) is that Boris fancies himself as something of a Churchillian figure in geopolitics, and did precisely what Churchill would have done if he - rather than Neville Chamberlain - has been Premier at the time of the Munich appeasement.
Either way, to suggest that Johnson is in cahoots with Edginton to fabricate an excuse for failure - even at a time when the prospect of failure is a vey long way off - is Machiavellian in the extreme.
In other words, and to quote Noel Coward, my response to your conspiracy theory is that there may well be “less to this than meets the eye”.
"continues" one can't continue something that didn't even started in the first place, Ukraine is losing LMAO
what are they going to report when Ukraine surrenders. It's like Theresa May saying Brexit is on the way. We are going to find out at some point its nonsense, how bizarre
Two comments are shadow banned
The guests is one of the best I’ve seen. Totally agree on everything.
🤡🌍🐑
There are a lot here who don't. But I like it.
This is Hollywood
Go Brendon!
This man lives in different dimension ,
Coko land
57:30 If he is extraordinary impressed by that... I am convinced that is the parallel dimension he is living, the lows of physics and common sense are just a bit different than ours.
2 months ago part of Daniel Johnson comments could be called speculations and even dismissed by a sceptical as wishful thinking. Right now we can really appreciate the insight and the deepness of his analysis.
What a load of nonsense criticing Germany for doing business with Russia . Look at how the UK banks accommodated so many Oligarchs and help them launder their ill gotten gains from Russia.
IF. A BIG IF.
Back to reality, what is happening?
It’s a subtle approach to disinformation though
Continues to beat Russia?? Is this worth listening to because that's not what's happening.
watch?v=tPLxoVhSOsw&t=137s It is not Hollywood!
The delusion of the British media... Sad thing is , many still believe them..
