Kate is the best host I’ve seen in a long time. Her questions show that she does her homework and she deserves a rise!

Wonderful discussion with General Breedlove. I have to say that Kate is the most knowledgeable and most professional interviewer I have encountered. She is a national treasure!

Thank you Kate for your questions and guests!

Putin must have cut Prigozhin a check for $10 BILLION & told him “this is what you’re going to do.” These guys are all about the money. Little else matters to them.

It's always incredibly illuminating to listen to General Breedlove (and General Hodges) laying out their opinions. Thank you, sir.

Just wanted to say, If I see gen. Breedlove is guest, I am clicking like button immediately.

As a Russian poet Tutchev once said "You can't understand Russia by using logic." 😀

What a privilege to hear Gen. Breedlove.

Wow, the gentleman answering the questions was very clear and concise. I want to hear more of him

The interviewer is so poised and thoughtful. The interviewee is articulate and honest. Plus, he wears an F35 shirt. Very cool!

Kate asks short, relevant questions and it's so refreshing. She gets the best fron her interviewees.

Putin to Shoigu: "I DONT NEED AMMO I NEED A RIDE !!! HURRY!!!!"

An excellent and informative interview. Both parties are commendable for their insightful views and questions. Well done Times Radio. 👍

This Has Been the best Analyst i have heard on this war and great interview

Rostov was and will remain the biggest Russian Victory in the war.

Ukraine needs to come into NATO asap- all these horrible mistakes committed by Germany and France the past must now be corrected. If Ukraine is not in the NATO all the mess will continue!

I really do hope that this man would be an adviser to the Ukraine forces because he is the first man I have heard talking sense about this war And the presenter is the best one I have seen so far 👏👏👏😀😀

Prigozhin has a lot of energy. He is gonna be up to something

I was amazed at the quality of the army uniforms/mobile equipment. Everything was spotless.

We Americans don't know how lucky we are to have such military leadership. I agree with this leader. I have faith in Ukraine and NATO.

Always interesting to hear guys that really really really know what they're talking about.

Bravo (former US General) Phillip Breedlove! Thank you for your clear comments on the situation in Russia and the effect of recent events kn the Ukraine war! I appreciate your clarity and honesty! Thank you Kate Szabo and Times Radio for this fascinating interview! Best wishes - Genevieve Forde Aotearoa Planet Earth

Very well analysed. Thank you Sir!

Good to hear from you Mr. Breedlove. Good to see you here. Hats off. Thanks for your help in "Lucky Town", very much appreciated!

Thank you for your great interviews. You so often asks questions that one wants answered…and Breedlove is always brilliant, specific enough and measured in a respectful manner regarding his opinion.

Kate-thank you for your superb interviews. It's always intriguing to hear what General Breedlove has to say. Well done!

I love when you have General Breedlove on for analysis. 4 ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️ General - Respect!!🎉

Concern is growing over the whereabouts of 3 older russian gentlemen who have not been seen for some time. Vladimir Vladimirovich went missing after making an appearance on national TV. Sergei Kuzhugetovich and Yevgeny Viktorovich were last seen in Rostov-on-Don. Friends and family starting to worry. If you see any of them please contact NAFO.

Prigozhin has agreed to move to Belarus for his defenestration.

President Zelensky shows decent courage , bravery & the personality of a courageous leader… unlike another.

Excellent interview.

General Breedlove should be on the battlefield. Ukraine would surely use him and he could make a big difference.

Fascinating Talk, Many thanks for doing this!!

We sure live in interesting Times...

Thank you 💛 General Sir I appreciate your coverage. Ukraine is playing it close to the chest. Smart. Ty again Sir

Thanks. You always ask your guests the questions I'd like to ask.

Always a good interview with Kate Give us more !!!

I like this general he says it as it is,everything he said is how i seen it

The entire situation had my attention all night long and into Saturday. Putin was strangely quiet for too long.

Thank you for asking questions about the things I wanted to understand. Very interesting interview.

Wagner leader should take a coup all the way to Moscow but now he have to run for the rest of his life..what a pity life 😢😢

Very informative program.

A key trigger was a decree on 10 June by Russia's defence ministry ordering all volunteer detachments - like the Wagner Group - to sign contracts with the government, which would effectively be a takeover of Prigozhin's mercenary troops. Of course this was not taken lightly. A mandatory draft into the Russian military by Wagners men. No thank you. Mercs are much more free than enlisted men. This was no anti-war peace march on to Moscow where Wagner was going to sit outside the Kremlin singing Kumbya and stand up to an unjust horrible war. Quite the opposite, Wagner has been complaining it is being held back from fighting properly in Ukraine. So those that were cheering on this attempted coup are nuts. How would having a bunch of psychopathic mercenaries in charge of nukes be good for anyone? The reason the march on Moscow was halted was because most likely Prigozchin cut a deal and he also knew it was doomed to fail from the start. Lets get serious folks. 90% of the Russian military was going to stay loyal to the Kremlin. And Wagner forces would have been nuked literally to send a message. The Kremlin saw this comming days in advance. How do I know, Because Everbody knew, even the CIA. The Wagner were massing troops and equipment on the Russian border days before the so called coup attempt. So What does Putin do? He gives stand down orders to not start anything with the Wagner group as they move towards Moscow. Obviously some did not get the message, But in the end Prigozchin cuts a deal for himself and his men. There is no devious underlying conspiracy here. No sneaky Belarus plot, no CIA spending billions to buy out Wagner, and no country wide revolt of the common man. So the deal was probably.... Any Wagner merc wishing to stay a free mercenary go to Belarus. That includes you Prigozchin. As for the last wacky conspiracy theory is that Putin is so angry he will track Prigozchin to the ends of the earth to finish him. Putin is too smart to throw away a useful tool like Prigozchin. He now owes Putin his life. For all we know this deal was cut days in advance of this lame coup attempt/protest march just so Prigozchin could save face and flee to Belarus after being responsible for sending thousand to their deaths in what has now become a cluster-f of a war by the Kremlin.

Great interview! Thank you.🇺🇦💝🇺🇸🌻

Prigozhin was sent in exil in Belarus to receive a dewagneritezification treatment on one of the potato kings farm's with new passports, suitcases of dollars and gold bars. Thereafter, he will continue his journey to one of his beloved war torn Africa colonies.

❤ thanks for your professionalism 😊

Good interview both with the presenter and interviewed.

good analyses

I think this whole thing is turning into a nightmare for the Russian people. I'm honestly afraid to think what might happen there in the future, and I'm not living there. For the people there, it's must be getting absolutely terrifying, with horrible, evil madmen playing their ridiculous wargames there, not just in Ukraine, but now also inside their own country.

Thanks for posting.

its fun watching putin melt away

Great questions in this absorbing interview. I wonder what percentage of the Russian public got to hear Prigozhin's remarks on the falsehoods on the lack of reasons for the war, as well as the cheering reception and fond farewell when he left.

There is no way for Putin to end the war in Ukraine without looking fatally weakened. This is not the case for Prigozhin - he could stop the war and still look strong in the eyes of the Russian people. If there is real appetite to end the war in the upper ranks of Russia, this difference will drive events in the coming weeks and months. Prigozhin IS Russia’s off ramp.

Kate is wonderful.

This war was never about WHO was running the Russian military effort. It was always the WHY Russia invaded Ukraine to begin with. As history has taught us, most (if not all) wars of aggression based on lies are doomed to failure...

The general's point that Prighozin turned around due to not getting the support of Russian troops as he moved north is the real reason why this mutiny failed. Kadyrov stayed loyal to Putin and Prighozin realised that his gamble had failed. A colourful day in Russia will assist the Ukrainians no end. Historians will compare this move to Napoleon's gamble when he escaped from Elba. As he moved towards Paris the French army sided with little corporal and we all know what happened a few months later. Prigozhin's St. Helena will be short stay in Belarus with a mysterious "suicide" at the end. Putin's only hope now is a Trump victory in 2024 - can he hold that long?

After downing 7 aircrafts killing all its crews. Prigozhin runs free. Hahaha.. truely demoralizing for Rusia.

Lovely lady...Great interviews keep up the good work Kate 😊

What an excellent interview with fantastic questioning and commentary

If is true that Prighozin made a mistake, then why Putin pardoned him? That doesn't make sense. If Putin knew that Prighozin was not going to make it, he simply should had said"bring it on". But he did the opposite, which leads me to think that Prighozin never wanted the Cremlin.

Don't let the world be destroyed 😢🙏🔱🇺🇦

Great interview, many thanks! 👍👍

Great guest, good interviewer.

Russian bots are like “NATO failed! Coup has been rescheduled!” 😂

I think Kate is my favorite interviewer on this channel. I know when I see her and her background pillows, we will get well thought-out questions and dialogue.

Thank you for a good information.

Thanks, for the interesting interview

What a brilliant interview with a very intelligent man.

God bless Ukraine and Crimea 🙏🇺🇦

Well said sir!

Great interview ....Spot On !

Hey! I used to help compile and edit reports that were sent to this guy, among others. I was on the staff at USASAC and we sent quarterly reports on all the foreign military sales and training programs in every region. Never met him, just remember his name being on a distribution list I maintained lol

Fantastic / balanced commentary on what’s going on in this horrible war 👍👍👍

great interview and it's not rushed or interrupted

Phil always speaks sense, I always listen to this man.

they are just waiting for F16 . please hyrry up!

Prigozhin has been playing a long game for many months already. This man used to lie all the time, even in things that were obvious. But for many months now he has been very careful about telling the truth, He's picked the specific truths that he was going to say, cherry pick them, but he has not been lying. I always saw that as a significant symptom, something that told me he was starting to play a political long game against the other court members of the Kremlin. This was also to cement his hold on not just his own troops but those who had interacted with it. What failed as the general has said, is that he did not get any support from any military units or commanders, nor did he politically get any support from any of the higher-ups in the Kremlin. He probably overstepped but too early, because of his temper. I think his move was always going to happen, but had he not given into his temper, he might have had more success by waiting a little more time. On the other hand he probably felt forced to do what he did, because he feels, and I think rightly, that people in the Kremlin even if not the boss himself, were attempting to assassinate him. This is what I think finally pushed him over. But I think he's still playing the long game, by evidenced on the deal he made that protects those who went with him, while at the same time giving him a modicum of safety in exile. I'm not sure he made the right choice in the last bit, but, he might not have had any other palatable choices to make as far as his own safety is concerned

Deep respect for Ukraine.

Times Radio: invite the General back again.

Criminals rise to the top of leadership, and good men talk about them .....Im not referring to this guest but observing how our world is lousy with rude, crude, belligerent power hungry psychopaths

We have already seen how the 2nd most powerful army in the world turned to be the 2nd in Ukraine. Now we also know that the former mediocre KGB-officer is as strong as Nikolai II on the spring of 1917. Looks like there´s going to be "fun" like in 1918-1921 or at least like in the 1990s. Good news to Ukraine and the civilised world.

An excellent interview, sir.

Excellent interview / analysist. Listen up, NATO.

Well if we take him at face value it was just Collective Action at work in bargaining for better working conditions. 😂

If Prigozhin is not being tortured or already dead, then the Tooth fairy is real.

good job, Kate

General Breedlove is spot on. Another great interview by Kate Szabo. Many thanks

House of cards bro. .. Russia's a paper tiger

Prigozhin was applauded by citizens for his battlefield exploits not because of his coup

Thanks.

Sage comments 👍🏻

Prigozhin's criticisms were ALWAYS aimed at Putin. It was politic to direct the charges at Shoigu and Gerasimov, but they, after all, were commanded by Putin. Only by attacking the underlings and humoring the boss was Prigozhin able to be seen on state television (thus gaining public support and establishing himself as a strongman, tough and smart. He may be pushed aside (for how long?) but the damage to Putin has been done; no longer a strong leader or brilliant strategist, but a weakened, ordinary man.

Zelenski has written his name into history books forever.

Great interview

Keep up the good work in interviewing these people Kate jebow (sorry for the spelling) I like your interviews, very very good...Oh I like you too 😊😘

Prigozhin folded his inside straight when called by Gerasimov; so the erstwhile black knight realized his limited reach, giving Putin ostensible, though pyrrhic victory over said aborted putsch. Putin is weaked still; and, if he remembers his Machiavelli will do the necessary cruelty quickly.

Hypothesis: Rasputin & Progozhin plotted this together. Progozhin's retirement plan and Rasputin flushes out those that are not loyal to him. Just a thought.

Good points… excellent guest

People think too much in terms of Putin as some absolute monarch. Putin isn't just Putin. It is the KGB gang that repositioned him from Dresden to Leningrad, then to Moscow. The senior figures behind that are no more, but we've been left their subordinates: Putin and his comrades, like Patrushev etc. These are the worst of the worst from the old KGB, in every respect: fanaticism, paranoia, corruption, and murderous personality. And this gang is just dealing the cards among themselves, to see how they can best prepare for Putin's succession without their corrupt and authoritarian power system unravelling, without power change. Therefore, they eliminate or keep at bay opposition figures like Nemtsov, Navalny, Kara-Murza, etc., while popular support that is lost by Putin gets diverted to fake "opposition" figures such as late Zirinovsky or, today, Prigogin. This way, whenever the time comes to replace Putin, some other gang member will be crowned, and business as usual will resume. Possibly going even further than Putin could or felt necessary, in terms of tyranny and fascism.
