Ukraine Atrikes Another Russian Base — Mariana Budjeryn
🎬 Times Radio | 8/18/2022 | ⏱️ 11’37”span / 240K views
"Ukrainians are targeting Russian ammunition depots, air bases and various command and control centres, they're being targeted, hit and destroyed." — Mariana Budjeryn discusses the spate of attacks on Russian occupied Ukraine and the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant.
Comment By Kurt Callaghan: Love the patriotism and fighting spirit of the Ukrainians. Would be awesome if we cared when other countries are subjected to wars of aggression.
Comment By SpicyAl3000: We do — turns out a lot of people don't want us involved in their countries though, there to help against a common enemy or not. Ironically, Ukraine would absolutely welcome any and all Western help, and make great use of said help. But agreed, being universally nice is good :)
Andre Savard: If a burglar would occupy your house, would you accept to negociate the right to stay in your house in some parts the burglar would allow you to stay? Negociation to legitimize what Russia is doing would pave the way to more "military operation" from Russia.
andrew: The only way to scare away the burglar is to do like a convenient store owner will do, pull out your own gun and fight back till they run away or die.
Scott Davis: Ukraine hits Russian military bases and ammo depots; Russia hits Ukrainian civilian infrastructure.
Mark Bezeredi: Exactly. One would assume that if the Russians were capable of doing similar operations, they would. So their only capability is to fire unguided munitions at a city.
Bernard Warr: I noticed Russia attacks shop malls and homes, Ukraine attacks Military bases and Ammunition store’s?
Emilia Teerds - de Jonge: Why are people so inpatient for ending this war, while Ukraine is still in the disadvantage? It’s only 6 month give the Ukrainian the chance to Win. So please give them the weapon’s to fight this evil!
Robin Claassen: There are a couple of qualitative differences between the attacks on Ukraine by Russia since 2014, and other wars since World War 2:
1. It's an attack on a democracy.
2. It's an attack by one country with the purpose of conquering territory form another country.
Both of those are huge violations of international norms than make this war exceptional. Were we to allow Russia to be successful in its aims in this war, we would be allowing a breakdown of the international rules-based order?
Robin Claassen: We'd be going back to a 19th Century system in which more powerful countries were allowed to impose their wills on less powerful countries. That's not a world that anyone wants to go back to. That's what makes this war so important and exceptional, and requires that we all to come Ukraine's defense. The attack on Ukraine is an attack on all free peoples.
William Neacy: Every day that goes by is another day the strength and capabilities of the Ukrainian armed forces grows. The opposite is true on the Russian side. Assuming Western support continues to ramp up as it has, there's only one way this thing ends. I think it may happen a lot faster than people think.
Harbin Tiger: The Russians fight like it is 1945, the Ukrainians like it is 2022.
Philip Dunne: Crimea is occupied territory... less than a minute in and already the distinctions are being misrepresented.
yllib lee: The worst for Russia would be a full retreat caused by Ukraine, no control just fleeing soldiers
Esra Erimez: Slava Ukraine. A way out of this is for Russia to get out of Ukraine.
