Yes!!! All in, this dilly dallying is costing lives & creating unneeded devasation. "It's not a marathon" sums it up so well. Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦💙💛✨🌻✨💛💙🇺🇦

Excellent, as always.

Thanks for another interesting interview .

Great work, as always guys. Great info put together as a whole. Very rare and great quality.

Fabulous discussion with Mr Keatinge, I’ll surely need to watch this Silicon Curtain episode a few more times! Thank You! 🇺🇦🔱$$🔱🇺🇦

Tom Keatinge was clear headed and well spoken. Good interview.

Fantastic speaker 👍

Thank you

Excellent discussion as always! 🇺🇦✌️

In regards to the question on the effect of Brexit around 36:00-37:00. Unfortunately it has only weakened the UK and divided Europe, much to the delight of Putin. We should start on the path to rejoining the EU with all haste to repair the damage Brexit has done.

We should think a step further. That Putin chosed an economist as an war minister must not mean Russia plans an infinite war. It also could mean the West should think he has endless recources or he simply want somebody without a network in the military to avoid another mutiny.

Professor Jeffrey Sonnenfeld had a very brief but highly popular appearance on your show and you proposed to invite him back. When will that be?

The notion that Russian assets are somehow protected by international law while Russia breaks every international law up to committing warcrimes is mind boggling.

Comment like and subscribe? Very well! A small price to pay for the best there is..please keep on Master Fink! Chapeau for highlighting with your characteristic insight the deep darkness possessing our enemy..Slava Ukraine! x

🇬🇧❤🇺🇦

👍

Happy Independence Day from across the pond. 😂 I am still laughing that your PM from California called for election on July 4th.

Interesting conversation. The Chinese bond issues targeting Russian investment/repayment is speculation I have heard of lately. It fits. I see Xi, the CCP, and other internal interests inflicting a thousand cuts to heal humiliations. Can you say 海參崴 ?

Would the Orcs admit defeat if they were pushed out of Moscow. Probably not if Putin was still alive.

The yanks gave Moscow eight years of practice after ‘14 with minimal sanctions (while Berlin rewarded moscow) continuing the practice

I thought the delivery of more air defence to Ukraine was exactly because to protect the future rebuilding projects. But it seems that i was wrong in thinking that there was a strategy behind this

Non governmental assets of oligarchs must far transcend 300 billion in gov assets. Maybe after the first week of November US can tighten legislation further and head in on a trillion or so. I suspect a lot of these assets truly are in Russia. Also, a multi national governmental research and prosecution team with plenary powers and lots of money freezing, seizing and litigating ill gotten gains. Temporarily seizing assets is absolutely a no brainer. Look at WWII. Ukraine is Russia’s Poland, 1939.

I'm your broken record....the west does not want to defeat russia. All the discussions in the world will not change this, but its interesting to hear them and they mostly confirm my view - so thank you!

Giving Ukraine everything it needs to win this war and Ukrainian integration into the EU and NATO is the west’s best self defense.

Sunak strengths were not fairly explored. Maybe he didn’t think he should explore them? Don’t know. He lost. But he was good at rallying and putting in what we could. Maybe it is too scary for voters to be so committed to helping Ukraine so the politician keep quiet

Why not use block chain technology to ensure integrity and accountability in Ukraine (....and elsewhere)?

The UN is a better lever, if the impostor the representatives of an impostor were not being enabled to stop it.

This gentleman is talking sense. There's no point in reconstruction unless Ukraine wins. And Ukraine can not win. So, there's no point.

I always thought it would happen because i plan it,don't wait to get robbed by a stranger,well hell im 53 and im still learning,sometimes you need to change the deck c,,,,not the hand.

Ah good old global community. 1.4 1.3 billion people of the west

Let's face it, rasputin is the new version of bin laden, the anti Democrat western tyrant of modern age

This is one of those videos that will not age well...

Agree mostly but here in America any D or R replacement candidate might do better in Swing states and with independent voters or minorities or women voters or Hispanics? I😮I

Why are the eu and Britain still buying Russian gas

Comment for the algorithm

Looking forward to the EU & UK to adopt and enforce the level of sanctions the United States has imposed to punish Russia for its aggression against the Ukraine! Quit being so two faced and do the right things!!

Thank you, Jonathan. Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦

Lo

The junkyard dogs keep barking and the wagon keeps rolling 😂

a comment section full of mindless automatons...

Are you fit and kit ready or will the Russian Orks use your basement

We just don’t think we ourselves are at war with Russia. We’re not in a war. Even if Ukraine is

“Russia doesn’t care about international law & norms”. 😂😂😂 The emperor is naked. Look in the mirror.

Silicon curtain. Why don’t you do Israel?

poachers-turned-gamekeepers is too British a phrase for your audience, most of whom are aren't British. I am Canadian, but I know what it means, as my grandfather was a gamekeeper.

Just as expected, this speaker didn’t recognize the fact that the sanctions have failed, but instead called for doubling down on said failing sanctions. If you want to know about why they failed, listen to Chichvarkin (Russian businessman who fled to London 15 years ago). But in a nutshell: 1. These sanctions are the first in history which didn’t target the country’s exports, but instead targeted imports. Case in point, when they sanctioned Iraq and Iran, they banned all oil exports. Meanwhile, Russia is free to export as much oil, gas, grain, fertilizer, and timber, as people are willing to buy. And people are willing to buy them, including westerners. Needless to say, the Russian government is making bank. Enough bank for them to buy whatever they need. 2. Sanctioning imports to Russia. You wouldn’t need to do this if you would have put an embargo on their exports, as they wouldn’t have any money to buy foreign goods. 3. Barring Russians from the west. Chichvarkin puts a LOT of emphasis on this. But this guy here totally misses the point. The fact that various Londongrads existed actually hurt Putin, because the drivers of the Russian economy could park their money away from his control. Now, that has gone out of the window, and capital flight from Russia almost impossible. Meaning that money made in Russia, stays in Russia, and works towards the war effort. Compounding this is the fact that it is nearly impossible for Russians to immigrate to the west, transferring their capital. Take a successful businessman, engineer, IT professional, etc. A lot of them wanted to move to the west after the war started. However, they have difficulties getting visas, registering businesses, opening bank accounts, etc. If they want to move to the west, their only option is to leave everything in Russia, flee as a refugee, and start from scratch somewhere in Europe, working odd jobs just to barely get buy. In fact, a lot of them went through this and decided to move back. Imagine going from making $150k+/year to bagging groceries at a Walmart. The result? Most of them ended up staying or returning to Russia, and they are now contributing to the Russian economy, either directly or indirectly fueling the war effort. Therefore, it is the western sanctions that prevented a capital flight as well as a brain drain. Why am I so fixated on Chichvarkin? There is a quote he made, “The West basically put up an iron curtain, preventing anything from leaving Russia and coming to the west, while at the same time throwing large sums of money over that curtain”. On top of that, he noted that apart from the occasional lip service, the west rarely engages with the Russian opposition. For example, they didn’t facilitate the creation of a government-in-exile. This is why he, as am I, are convinced that the west not only wants to keep an open door with Putin, but they would prefer to deal with him than anyone else on matters regarding Russia. And this makes sense as for 22 years, they have been reliably doing business with him. They don’t care about “democracy” or “freedom”. All western leaders have ever cared about is a reliable flow of goods and capital. Saudi Arabia is another good example of this. They can turn their opposition into minced meat (literally), but as long as the oil flows for a good price, nobody cares. Furthermore, and you can hate on me all you want, I am 99% sure that Russia will win this war. Not because they are powerful or anything, but because judging by their actions, the leaders of the west don’t want a Ukrainian victory. Nor is the western public for that matter. The speaker brought up secondary sanctions. And yes, combined with an embargo on exports from Russia, it will probably work. But nobody is going to do that because it will tank the western economies. Nobody in power is going to sign off on such a thing, as it means losing the next elections.

Keep ignoring BRICS+
