For over two years now, Russia has been waging a full-scale war with Ukraine - a decision that has impacted the county on every level.
In our Russia documentary, we look at the the biggest changes that took place in Russia since the conflict began and specifically at: the Russian military and the state of the army in the Ukraine war, Russian politics, state repressions and the neo-totalitarian shift in Putin’s government, as well as Russia’s ambitions in attempting to change the global world order.
How long can Russia afford this war? What’s the state of the Russian army and can it still beat Ukraine on the battlefield? Can Russia's economy continue to bear the costs of war and what were the biggest changes in Russia’s foreign and domestic policy? In this documentary, OSW experts answer these and other questions about the state of Russia in 2024.

The Soviet Union was always a Russian-dominated empire as demonstrated by the 1968 invasion of Czechslovakia. But even during that era the political allegiances at the highest levels still allowed for a leader to be ousted. Brezhnev was part of a cabal that ousted an aging Khrushchev. There is no such off ramp for Russia today. There are no senior leaders that can oust Putin peacefully. It's more like Bashar Assad's regime in Syria with concentric rings of loyalists whose own position, wealth, and safety are reliant on the leader staying in power.

Now a shift is happening with Artur Ivanov, Acting State Councillor of the RF, being under arrest. It was Shoigu who brought Ivanov to the ministry. Ivanov’s arrest is in no way a fight against corruption - in Russia everyone steals as much as they can. In the Russian system, each official has a separate folder in the FSB, and when a signal comes from above that a person needs to be processed, they take it off the shelf and put it into action. A person working for the Russian government, even if he has palaces, yachts and expensive cars, actually does not possess any of this. It does not belong to him and can be taken away at any moment, and he is sent to prison. His arrest indicates that a serious intra-clan struggle has begun in Putin’s system. Ivanov’s place is very profitable, now the struggle for this place will begin and all the contenders will rush to snitch on each other in the fight for that place. Putin created a system, like any dictator, where he pits everyone against each other. His task is to ensure that no one can unite so much as to become a threat to his own power.

Spot on ! Thats why Putin is so rattled by the recent seizure of Russian 'assets' for Ukraine. Then there's the other fact - almost all of the former soviet states dont want anything further to do with this crap ! - Latvia Estonia Lithuania Poland former Czechoslovakia Kazakhstan and on it goes !!! And those that claim to want to be part of Putins CCCP V2.0 eg Chechnya and Belarus also dont want it but unfortunately have brutal puppet governments in power...

It depends how you look at it. The Soviet Union was a federation of states. Belarus, Ukraine for example had their own Constitutions which changed a few times. At the beginning of the UN, Ukraine even had its own place in the United Nations General Assembly. And the Soviet Leaders were mostly from Russia, bit also from other nationalities within the Soviet Union. The leaders of the Soviet Union came from a variety of nationalities within the USSR. Here are some of the key leaders and their nationalities: 1. Vladimir Lenin (1870-1924) - Russian. Lenin was born in Simbirsk (now Ulyanovsk), Russia. He was the leader of the Bolshevik Revolution and the first head of the Soviet state. 2. Joseph Stalin (1924-1953) - Georgian. Born Ioseb Jughashvili in Gori, Georgia, Stalin became the General Secretary of the Communist Party and later the Premier of the Soviet Union. 3. Nikita Khrushchev (1953-1964) - Ukrainian. Although born in Kalinovka, Russia, Khrushchev spent much of his political career in Ukraine and identified closely with it. 4. Leonid Brezhnev (1964-1982) - Ukrainian. Brezhnev was born in Kamenskoye (now Dnipro), Ukraine. He led the Soviet Union during a period of significant stagnation. 5. Yuri Andropov (1982-1984) - Russian. Andropov was born in Nagutskaya, Russia. Before becoming the General Secretary, he was the head of the KGB. 6. Konstantin Chernenko (1984-1985) - Russian. Chernenko was born in Bolshaya Tes, Russia. His short tenure was marked by continued stagnation. 7. Mikhail Gorbachev (1985-1991) - Russian Gorbachev was born in Privolnoye, Russia. He was the last leader of the Soviet Union, known for his policies of glasnost (openness) and perestroika (restructuring). 8. **Georgy Malenkov** (1953) - Russian. Malenkov briefly succeeded Stalin before being replaced by Khrushchev. 9. **Alexei Kosygin** (1964-1980) - Russian. Kosygin was a significant figure during Brezhnev's era as the Premier of the Soviet Union. These leaders represented the diverse ethnic and national composition of the Soviet Union, although Russians and Ukrainians were the most common. Do not forget that Russian is mainly a bridge language, like English. There are more than 100 different languages in Russia.

Entire Ukraine reserve is 500k, but they deployed 1million troops... whatever, the size was literally more or less equal in the start of the war.... Also not a single Russian in Russian military who fight against Russians... they dont drat from moscow or peterburg, where actual people who you think are Russians (Muscovites) live... they draft from rural areas... ethnic groups who are not russian , even voilunteer Chinese ... I guess to west Russia is one big lump , not a diverse federation of republics (in reality most diverse country in the world ethnically) just like sokme people just say Africa, like it's a country lol...

I enjoy watching / listening to your videos. I commute a couple of hours a day and will set up a playlist in the morning and listen to it throughout the day. When you have a foreign language speaker and just put subtitles under it, that part of the video is useless to me. I skip it. Sometimes I have time to catch it later in the evenings, but more generally, I just don't get to watch / listen to it. Dubbed over speech is a much better solution. Providing the actual foreign language does not make it more authentic. I have to trust your written translations. Please help.

Thank you. This helped me visualize a more wholesome picture of the entire “scene”. What the further dangers to World peace, the World order are and how Putin can cause his little special operation to get more out of his hands than it already is. He has committed himself too far without an exit out of his mess! His age is against him if he thinks he can wear out the West. The logjam in the U.S. Congress was fortunately broken up, which happened after this video was released. That did bring some clarity of what to expect. But so much more lays ahead unfortunately!

Russia's military expansion, the cult of war and the turn toward neo-totalitarian methods of repression, the confrontation with the West and Russia's aim of upending the international order, possible scenarios, and much more are all brilliantly covered. Looking forward to more updates in the future. Well-done, and subscribed.

In this analysis one big factor is not included. To avoid sanctions, companies in "third" countries such as Kazakstan, Turkey and others have seized the opportunity to dramatically increase their trade in critical components required by Russia, which they sell on to Russia... so Russia is not impacted as was hoped by the sanctions. Also, fertilisers and other products are not object of sanctions so Western countries continue to import them as if there was no war... The import of fertilisers and products required for fertilisers have dramatically increased. Russia is used to doing this, ...it was how they survived during the cold war. The West, in my mind, is too naive and Western companies more focussed on profits than "patriotism" also turn a blind eye on sales that they know are benefitting Russia.

From the Polish perspective, the first target to hit, if Ukraine loses the war with Russia, might be a country in the northeast. While that is probable to a high extent, it might also be true that Russia could likely attack a particular country 🇷🇴 in its southwestern neighborhood because Moldova cannot stand in the way. Russia might find its natural borders in the southwest to be along the Carpathian mountains. There is not a whole lot of time left for the West to work harder in building its defense.

War mobilization and the expansion of law enforcement agencies, particularly the Federal Security Service, carries economic risks, as it obliges the government to continue to make expensive payments to these groups even when faced with budgetary challenges. These payments are an economic time bomb: high wages are extremely difficult to reduce, and doing so for the main pillar of Putin’s rule-the army and security forces-is not an option.

Genuine question: You give the casualty number for both parties at 180.000. I'm sure Ukraine is understating its casualties but isn't it still likely that they have fewer casualties than Russia because they don't use the meat grinder tactics and are genuinely on the defensive. I would be most grateful for a response from the makers of the video.

It is worth adding that for every 1 killed, 3 were wounded. So what does 180 losses mean? If killed, then this means +540 thousand wounded. Or is it the total losses of wounded and killed.

Let me tell you what I think. I am by no means a strategist when it comes to military operations. But, I do know how bullies think and operate. I will get to that in a moment. But, let me point out something first. We (the US) doesn't always plan ahead. The 2003 invasion of Iraq is the best example of that. It was a costly and lengthy operation that didn't end well. Compare that with the 1991 well planned Gulf War that decimated Iraq's military in a matter of weeks. Same country, different outcomes based on planning. Now, the US has a plan in place if China invades Taiwan. This plan would send China back to the mainland licking their wounds. I have no doubt it would work because it is well planned. Now I ask, why didn't we have a plan in place when Russia invaded Ukraine? The best we could do is give Ukraine some money, a few weapons, and wish them luck? The US should have had a well publicized plan in place letting Russia know that if they invade any country, it would be a very costly and painful mistake- just as we have warned China against invading Taiwan. That's based on my opening paragraph on how you deal with bullies. The moment Russia invaded Ukraine, we should have made it so costly and painful that Russia would have done an about face. It's too late now. Our unplanned and unorganized response has lead Ukraine to a slow and painful death. Any bold action we take now may escalate into an all out war. Putin already feels emboldened by our half-assed response. Would a swift and painful response in the beginning led to an all out war? I really don't think so. Putin, like any other bully, would have been shocked and caught off guard getting his ass handed to him. I could be wrong. Then again, I am a truck mechanic. Not a war planner

Funny thing is that Americans that are so pro-Taiwanese have this social justice attitude that FREEDOM must be preserved, but blatantly show double standards when it comes to Israel bombing and killing women and children in Gaza. For the millionth time, Taiwan is China's internal problem. You can be damn sure if China absorbs or overtakes Taiwan in the semi-conductor industry, US NATO would'nt give 2 fcks about Taiwan anymore. FYI, my question to you Americans are, how do you accept an administration that prioritizes Ukraine over their own citizens? You do know you pay taxes and you're not getting anything in return? Also you are right, US do not plan ahead, this is because every administration will make short term decisions (with long term consequences) to look good for the upcoming election. This is why I think democracy is flawed, unlike models like Russia/China, that looks far into the future with their global investments and whatnot, the country will strive even after the presidents have left office. Meanwhile democrazy in US, is about constant lobbying, making the ultra rich richer and the gap between the poor and rich is so distant. If you're not aware, your gov prints so much money, your 10 generations after you will still not be able to pay back the money owed. As far as I know, its about 1 trillion USD every 3 months now. And with MORE military spending (DOH), I can say for certain that US will definately not be able to pay it back. So much for having a 'good credit rating'. If the US and EU would just stay in their respective regions and fix domestic problems, and not intervene with issues in Russia/global south, peace can definately be maintained. US brings their freedom and democracy bullsh**t by stealing oil from others and starting wars all over the damn globe. Look in the mirror, US is the Imperial army (using the Star wars reference).

I would question the statement that, “Nothing suggests that the Russians are suffering from a shortage of equipment, men or any shell hunger.” The fact that T55 tanks are being committed to offensive operations, average daily shell usage is one sixth of what it was in 2022 and Russian prisoners are being taken on the frontline eight days after enlistment, suggests the opposite. The opacity and probable mendacity of Russian government finance reporting means that we cannot gauge the impact of the war on the economy and state finances. It is highly unlikely that 40% of state funding can be directed to the state security system without either adversely affecting the financing of other state institutions or drastically impacting the sovereign wealth fund. This documentary makes no reference to the recent impact of Ukrainian drones on the Russian domestic oil refinery industry, which will almost certain result in fuel shortages and further inflationary pressures. Also the assessment that Russia feels it is getting the upper hand against Ukraine takes no account of the recent assertion by Macron that France will ensure that Russia will not prevail and that the 1991 borders will be restored.

By signing the Budapest Memorandum (5 Dec 1994) Russia agreed to the following: 1. Respect the signatory's independence and sovereignty in the existing borders. 2. Refrain from the threat or the use of force against the signatory. 3. Refrain from economic coercion designed to subordinate to their own interest the exercise by the signatory of the rights inherent in its sovereignty and thus to secure advantages of any kind. 4. Seek immediate Security Council action to provide assistance to the signatory if they "should become a victim of an act of aggression or an object of a threat of aggression in which nuclear weapons are used". 5. Refrain from the use of nuclear arms against the signatory. 6. Consult with one another if questions arise regarding those commitments.

Following Tito’s death in 1980, leaders such as Slobodan Milosevic rose to power and took advantage of the weakening state by utilising Serbian ultra-nationalism to fan the flames of conflict throughout the various neighbouring countries. As the rise of nationalism grew, Slovenia followed by Croatia voted for independence and broke away from Yugoslavia by 1991. On 29th February, and 1st March 1992 a referendum on independence was held in Bosnia. 99.7% of the those who voted declared “yes” and thus Independence was declared on 3rd March 1992. As Bosnian Serb political leadership boycotted the independence, the Serbian forces attacked Bosnia leading to four years of brutal ethnic cleansing, genocide, and crimes against humanity all up until 1995 when the Dayton Agreement was signed.

Let's say Russia is producing 2k tanks per year. How many 500$ drones would be needed to destroy these tanks? 5 times more? 10 times more? Let's say 50 drones are needed to destroy one tank, that would be 25k$ per tank. Multiply with 2000 and that equals 50 mil $. Peanuts for Ukraine as long as it can keep up with air defense and manpower. Tank and infantry attacks without air dominance do not work in today's drone wars. Both sides experienced it with disastrous results.

No ways 50 drones to take out one tank.......stop being ignorant, one drone is enough to destroy however 3 seemingly is the maximum to be used in one tank.

@@avuazahc1966 You are failing to see my point. My calculation is referring to 50 drones just to make a point of the fact that doesn't matter how many tanks are produced, 500$ drones will destroy them at a competitive price. And calling someone ignorant while you can't understand what are you reading is saying something about you.

What happens when the Russians run out of money to pay for enlistment bonuses? Russia is seriously diluting the value of it's currency keeping up this facade that it's business as usual for the Russian people. They keep throwing money around as if nothing's wrong while their economy continues to shrink and costs of living increase. This can't go on forever, eventuality they're going to run out of road and end up in a hyperinflation crisis.

Norwegian Chief of Defense, General Eirik Kristoffersen, revealed that Russia has dramatically reduced its military presence on the border with NATO member Norway. “Vladimir Putin knows very well that NATO is not a threat against Russia,” commented Kristoffersen. “If he believed we were threatening Russia, he couldn’t have moved all his troops to Ukraine.”

What are you even talking about... IF Ruzzia wins in Ukraine (they never will, not ever), then they are right at the border of NATO. If Ruzzia loses, and it most definitely will, Ukraine will immediately join NATO (or the EU at the very least, which is also an automatic Article 5 inclusion) and Ruzzia will be right at the border of NATO. So, no matter what happens, Ruzzia will end up right at the border of NATO. So now what :) Will he then attack NATO and seal his fate? If he even gets to live that long, to see that happen in the first place.

Sounds like a strategy. First we have a lot of Russians go live in another country. In a couple of decades these Russians call for independency and ask Russia to liberate them from the Nazi country they live in.
