What Russia wants is de-stabilization of the West, and Trump was a guarantor of that. I have to laugh out loudly every time someone claims that "Russia had never invaded Ukraine when Trump was a President". In addition I could also mention a lot of things that Trump promised but didn´t keep. Trump also reminded me very much of Putin: Always screaming "Fake News" when he saw FACTS presented that he didn´t like.

The Economist is a great magazine and she is the head of it. I highly recommend it. When you first start reading it you can get the impression it's a little bit what Americans would call "republican" economically -- and she hit that a few times with "free markets" and so forth but once you read it over time you get a clearer and deeper picture of what it represents. They also write their articles anonymously so there is none of the "following your favorite pundit" sort of thing that we fall into in the US. It can also be very funny and biting in the classic British style of humor which is very sly. It also covers the world in a very proportional way. Can't speak highly enough about it. And, yeah, she's some sort of ideal . . .

Everyone knows the truth. The inability to look in the mirror is the mental health crisis of the ages. When the layman is fed bias from the media, then later finds out "oh, sorry Iraq had no WMDs"...it's no wonder they are pissed. The solution needs to not just be "even if there's a bit of truth, the world is much better off embracing western values"...it should be "there is a lot of truth, we need to change drastically, so that there is no hypocracy, and the world which we espouse is fact not fiction". This is the answer. Not "well, emerging countries are still better off in our hypocritical world, than in a dictatorship"

All right, I think this was the most relevant conversation I've seen in a while, especially the middle part. Many countries are backing Russia or just sitting on the fence, waiting to see what will happen, and I've also seen many characterizing the war in Ukraine as a conflict between Russia and the entire West. However, we can clearly see that Russia offers no better alternative to the current global order, instead they offer the promises of the same old Cold War era standoff, with the arms race, global paranoia, economic isolationism, saber rattling, and frequent diplomatic crises, much more intense then any of it was since the Cold War. The western system is far from perfect, it is often hypocritical and allows for double standards in international relations, but the alternative offered here is pure self interest, countries with powerful armies bullying those that can't defend themselves, full state control of the press, and crackdowns on the freedom of assembly. In my mind, democracies provide at least a chance for improvement, via elections, civil engagement, and free discourse, while dictatorships can only be undone by revolutions or coups which always leave a country worse off then it was before. Rehashing failed historical political systems is never the correct path.

The real power is in the people. The average Russian wants the same thing the average American wants. All we can do is continue to be the squeaky wheel and slowly, like a rock in a stream, change the course of mankind.

@@ayethein7681 I do not think the arguments of Zelensky are criticism. He rather uses very strong arguments in a very extreme negotiation. If he knows we can not do certain things, it is a very professional negotiation strategy to ask for it anyway. Additionally, he can not stop asking for it because it would not be obvious to his own people why he does not ask. I think in speeches to other governments, he plays these cards quite openly. He makes the impossible requests in a somewhat formal way, and changes to much deeper emotional involvement before he continues. He is basically a more professional politician than we are used to. Actually, I did not see his arguments as criticism even in his speech to the German Bundestag Parliament. When he talks about Germany buying large amounts of Russian gas in very harsh terms, everybody in the room knows he is just factually right. It is not that he explains something new. You would not do that in most negotiations because it never gets as serious as this. He got standing ovations of the Parliament after that speech. Slava Ukraini!

Well said Ann, these are points I so very often raise when discussing geopolitics, particularly with those who have been 'educated' (indoctrinated) by the post-modern revisionist anti-Western education system. Australians were indeed so very blessed to have had so many hard working Vietnamese people come to our country, albeit in the most difficult of circumstances, who were absolutely determined to create better lives for themselves and their families. People, who like your own self, were experientially most very aware of the threat of autocratic regimes to individual endeavour as well as collective self-determination. Thank-you for what you have contributed by becoming citizens of this our great country Australia.

I agree! If we fail to help Ukraine with all our might NOW, we we will have to meet Putin's vicious hordes in Finland, Poland or the Baltic states in the near future. Our wishy-washy leaders seem to prefer appeasement to Putin, even cowering before him rather than taking a stand to stop him HERE and NOW, at a time when his armed forces have been temporarily brought to heel by the Ukrainians. The alternative is to waffle on and then have to repeat the ordeal on the battlefields of the aforementioned nations in a few years, fighting an all-out WW3.

Thank you, Zanny and all involved, both for your superb interview with President Zelenskyy, and for this discussion. I found the interview truly fascinating and as you say, his authenticity shines through. I'm not surprised he doesn't rehearse his presentations as it's so clear they come from an unshakeable core. So often we see world leaders talking about patriotism, we rarely see them demonstrating it without trying, and without trappings, whilst looking the world in the eye. And he is, as you say, channelling the spirit of 44 million people. Being their public face. Both their leader, and very much one of them. The cruelty and callousness meted out against the people of his country is devastating for those of us watching outside. What it must feel like to the Ukrainian people, and to President Zelenskyy, facing this 24/7, I can scarely imagine. It is a privilege to watch someone emerge on to the world stage who is such a powerful and passionate advocate for his country, and who embodies its spirit so strongly. It is just such a heartwrenching shame that his country and its people have to suffer so much for us to see it. We owe him and his people a huge debt of gratitude, for fighting so bravely for what so many of us take for granted, for showing the world fearlessly and viscerally what it costs to defend freedom, and for reminding us what love of country really is. Not plastic patriotism, but blood and bone loyalty to each other, to the land, and to their ancestors.

This was one of the best interviews / commentaries I have watched so far. Living in Brazil and demonstration my support for Ukraine and the west in Brazil raises many eyebrows. And when you ask these people why the disapproval, the answers vary: 1 - we are a small dog in a Pitbull fight; 2 - we sell a lot of stuff to China and Russia and the US and Europe compete unfairly with us in the international markets, 3 - the west is arrogant and mistreats us, so that is why it is better to associate with the BRICS which treat us as equals, 4 - the US needs no excuse or approval to invade sovereign countries, and when they do come up with excuses, they are generally lame excuses, 5 - the US has a history of double-crossing their allies. Did so in Iraq, Afghanistan, Central and South America, you name it, 6 - the US would rather spend trillions of dollars in useless wars than to invest that capital in the betterment of infrastructure, educations etc in allied nations. I usually counter with: 1 - would we be better off in a world ruled by China or Russia ? The answer is invariably no. 2 - the fact that we are a small dog derives from the fact that the US or the west didn't "help" us or is it the consequence of poor governments fraught with corruption, bad decisions, systemic lack of investment in infrastructure, lack of massive investment in education, not opening our borders to free trade, not reforming our legislation to curb expenditure with politicians and the public sector, not modernizing our tributary laws, not promoting inclusive institutions, and a number of other points that are frankly in our power to do ? the answer is also predictable. Don't think there aren't people in developing nations that do not realize what a gift it is to live in a system that has the US as a superpower and the west as their allies. In these countries there are also plenty of people frustrated with the way their governments work and that know in which direction we should steer decisions. Alas, it takes time and our lives are too short. The west could and should help, especially with the example and with understanding, but also by changing diplomatic attitudes and opening up markets to the products of the developing world. Even if one-sided.

Yes he has humanity and emotional empathy. Putin lacks these things because he's a psychopathic narcissist. A Narcissist cares not at all for other people as a person; they only matters inasmuch as what they can do for the narcissist. other people are viewed as objects. It is very hard for normal, caring people to understand this and because of that, they often think they can reach the narcissist. They cannot. A narcissist cannot be reached with empathy and you cannot appeal to his good graces. He is capable of neither. Emotional empathy is not in their orientation to the world at all an that trigger is not there inside them. For people with normal functioning empathy the knowledge they are hurting someone would be enough to stop the behavior because it's coming from someone who already has normally-functioning empathy. If a person has normally-functioning empathy, that is all it would take. The knowledge they are hurting another person would trigger an emotional reaction that would create a behavioral response: This happens because that person has normally-functioning empathy, so the information that they are hurting another person has emotional meaning for them. If someone does not have normal empathy, that information often does not mean anything to them. Without empathy to give this information emotional meaning, it does not become understanding. It's just information with no emotional meaning or value. It will not create a reaction that pushes this person to stop their behavior. Just knowing you are hurting someone else is not enough. You have to actually care about that in order for this information to make you want to stop. Without empathy, you will not care and therefore, you will not stop unless you are forced to do so by some external reason. Narcissists are empty vessels with nothing pushing them onward through life but the desire for more and a pathological jealousy of and anger toward anybody they perceive as having something they don't. They are human wrecking balls bent on destroying themselves and everyone else they can . They are mimics, they are chameleons. What they are not are people who value human life. Thhe best way to know who someone really is, is by observing their actions. their true motivations will always come through their actions in the end or they wouldn't get what they want. They are a true and accurate mimic, but don't be fooled. Narcissists are truly handicapped and crippled human beings in that regard: they have no real feelings at all for anyone other than themselves. psychopaths are narcissists are very good manipulators and it's easy to see why many buy into their charming false person, A mask of humanity that this person has had decades to perfect. it's all a lie. there is no meaningful Humanity in these people. What you're seeing is a very clever mimic and your own humanity reflected back at you . it is not real. That's why never ignore, excuse away, rationalise and justify reality and someones blatant actions in favor of their own misguided idea that this person seems like an okay guy . It s letting feelings override their common sense and intellectual understanding.

He really is the Leader Ukraine needed at this time, perhaps even for the rest of the free world also.

This FACT , opposes the Ukrainian lie that the referendum in Donbasses was a fake election ran by the Russians. IF Russia went through all that trouble to have a fake election in Donbasses, then they would rubber stamp the process of annexing Donbasses. But the opposite happened. The Russian parliament had a debate and voted against it .. So the FACTS suggest that the Donbass referendum was REAL , and that Russia does NOT want the Donbasses. THE ACCUSTION from Ukraine and NATO that the Donbasses referendum was a "fake" rigged election, has NO PROOF to support it. It is a baseless accusation .

So the war needs to end but both sides have made good progress and I don't think Russia is to blame , Ukraine should send a delegation to Moscow or Poland to end the war , than they can work on returning POW's and they can reopen embassies

Zelenzky is authentic, genuine, brave, the right man for the moment! Very well said Zanny. You have lots of statements that rings back, and I hope that Russians wil listen to that, too. Yes, the west has a double standard, hypocrite, and not practicing what it preaches, but between the west and Russia, we are in a better world with the west leading, not usurping territories, not butchering people, not lying to its citizen, not respecting sovereignty. .. and these are taken for granted.

The West would do well to live up to it's version of the sermon Reagan made a poorly contrived allusion too; the Shining City on the Hill is a goal, an achievement not ever quite accomplished- and ever greater and continuing desire to become better tomorrow than you are today. Reagan made it sound like we were the Shining City- BS! FR

@Jen Jones Quote some sources or stfu. Saying such about any US POTUS who takes campaign donations from Jewish sources would be both more believable and very possibly true based on later actions. Vlad Putin and his consort, Father Kiril wouldn't be of any interest to Talmudics or other Jews- Jewish migration from Russia to Israel has been a continuous stream from the end of WW2 to the present. This isn't even a "likely" conspiracy- it' is a bald faced lie int he face of decades of facts. FR

no she does not,, She presents the false fictional propaganda of western society's exceptionalism and hypocrisy . She is the living embodiment of unwitting racist white supremacy and western exceptionalism , who SINCERLY believes ALL the lies that she was raised on ! She is a functionally racist white supremacist , because her core beliefs are the false justifications of white supremacy and western exceptionalism . She exposes herself by her repeated use of the words: "If it were true" "even IF there was some semblance of truth" To describe things that are 100% verifiably true

I agree. We in the West have done ourselves no good when we have supported dictators when it gave us access to oil and conducted regime changes against the popular vote of the people in various nations around the world but on this occasion the West must help Ukraine destroy Russia militarily in Ukraine so that it cannot succeed in this invasion. Sovereign nations and their borders must be respected and nations that break those rules must pay reparations. It benefits everyone if we can maintain a rules based order and give everyone the expectation that their goods and services can be sold around the world in the most fair and competitive marketplace that we can create under those rules. That can give lasting dignity and an increasing equality of opportunity to families in every nation.

Fabulous interview. So much ground was covered, and the issues were addressed clearly and in a balanced way. Great to hear a personal account of Volodomyr Zelenzky. It’s unusual that a “politician” is acting as a human being first, but accepting his role as a leader with such intelligence, determination and just pure grit. I have been so proud of how the Ukrainians have fought, tooth and nail, to stall and repel Russia, despite the overwhelming odds. They are an inspiration to us all.

My heart goes out of President Zelensky and the Ukranian people. Hoping they will receive the support they need for this to be over as quickly and peacefully as possible. Double standards are real. People in emerging countries don't believe in the model of the west, because it has failed us so much. We live in poverty while others get immensely rich and appear to either ignore or not care about our lives.

The Third World is better off now than it has ever been. Why? Primary support from the developed world. Famine used to regularly ravage the world and tens or hundreds of millions would regularly die of starvation. The Western world has developed the methods of feeding the 7 billion people who now exist. Without those methods billions of those people wouldn’t exist. Can it get better yes it can, but the Third World can’t expect the 1st world to do everything for them. Unlike the 1st world you have been given a template for development if you choose to follow it is up to you. Japan, South Korea, and now China have all followed it and how have they prospered?

After 19 years since the beginning of the invasion of Iraq, has the West forgotten this war? The Iraq war is said to have resulted in 1 million deaths the difference is russia have weapons of mass destruction A message to the future generations never make russia feel threatened the difference between "looking dangerous" and "being dangerous".Russia describes military doctrine as defensive military doctrine. With regard to nuclear weapons specifically, Russia reserves the right to use nuclear weapons: in response to the use of nuclear and other types of weapons of mass destruction against it or its allies,in case of aggression against Russia with the use of conventional weapons when the very existence of the state is threatened

0:07 , that is insane writing skills , the guy is writing super fast without looking !!! The sanctions imposed on Russia are the wrong policy , we should remove these sanctions , this war has been escalating since 2014 and we can't just blame Russia for this war the war needs to end but imposing sanctions is immoral I voted for Biden but I think sanctions are the wrong policy the sanctions we imposed on Cuba and Iran were a disaster and I'm generally opposed to sanctions and I think imposing sanctions on Russia is the wrong policy I voted for Biden and I think his doing a great but we need a long term plan were we remove sanctions on nations like Russia or Iran or Cuba and we focus on our domestic issues , sanctions on other nations that we impose have achieved nothing substantial , and if it has I've not noticed it because we are paying 7 dollars a gallon , we need to worry about our own economy and we should remain neutral , we need oil from Russia and Europe also needs Russian oil , our sanctions have achieved nothing in the last 30 years Ukraine and Russia have both made good progress in peace talks , they are more than capable of reaching a peace deal . both sides were close to a peace deal but Ukraine is refusing to give control of Mariupol to Russia , Russia could return Mariupol to Ukraine as a show of good will but Russia will probably take control of Donetsk and Luhansk because these two cities support Putin and they have been trying to join Russia since the 1980's . So the war needs to end but both sides have made good progress and I don't think Russia is to blame , Ukraine should send a delegation to Moscow or Poland to end the war , than they can work on returning POW's and they can reopen embassies
