Full Stavridis, Yovanovitch, McFull: ‘This Is Not Just About Ukrainian Freedom’
Yeah, the whole world is changing now.
I’m praying for all the people of Ukraine and it doesn’t matter what happens in the end Putin will not come back from this.
If the Ukranians are going to be decimated, like the movie “Planet of the Apes” the Ukranians should bomb all the nuclear reactors!!!
If you want to see a great interview you should watch the interview done by an BBC with Polands President Andrej Duda.
The Polish President said that Polands public opinion is against handing over those fighter jets!
Ukrainians are on there own with this administration. Experts here believe so, listen closely. It is the here and now that matters.
Spitfires won the Battle of Britain.
As russia stated there are weapons of mass destructions, wouldn’t it be smart to say: “Ok, let blue-helms check it? China – what do oyu think about a non flight zone. not that accedently a labor gets hit?” or something like that?
Good Guests – thank you! However, I gotta say – it’s time to replace Chuck – he has become really irritating (IMO).
Rovin’ gambler, he was very bored
Tryin’ to create a next world war
He found a promoter who nearly fell off the floor
“I never did engage in this kind of thing before
But yeah, I think it can be very easily done”
“We’ll just put some bleachers out in the sun
Have it on Highway 61”
You all talk the b.s. and are safe but can’t do something to stop the war so shut the f up and eat salt jeprone God bless America be safe.
Its about the military industrial complex making money at the expense of regular people.
America is just as evil
You’re right, it’s not about Ukrainian freedom, it’s about taking advantage of the situation and punish the whole world with sanctions that worsen the problem and reaping the benefits. Putin’s war is localized but the economic war affects everyone.
Ukraine flag 🇺🇦
Putin is toying with US and NATO minds when he suggests chem / nuke options, he doesn’t want to turn Ukraine against Russia forever – it’s just a provocation to give him an excuse for what he’s doing as NATO rattles sables. Ukraine will suffer, but the more they suffer the more Putin loses. As long as the US and NATO keep their cool and wait this out to become a drawn out guerilla war, and not engage in all out WW3. It’s do or die for Putin now, he will say anything to turn things in his favor. But not actually do it. He knows that would be instant suicide for not just him, but all of Russia. Stay calm and help the Ukraine in a covert manner.
THE BIGGEST PROBLEM OF VLADIMIR PUTIN, IS HIS PARANOIA.
Pray for the conversion of Russia to the immaculate heart of Mary. .. .
THE BIGGEST THREAT OF THE HUMANITY, IS NOT THE NUCLEAR 💣 BOMB. BUT, HIS MAKER😎
Get FOX NOT to be Pro-Russia and Benedict Donald Trump to condemn Putin. Both will NEVER happen because of Russia $$$. Let’s Go, Might Joe!
Ukraine is just a pawn for USA to install democracy there and win USA elections in mid term
Ukraine wouldn’t help Julian Assange or Edward Snowden, but they say they want freedom? 😂😂😂😂
The people you refer are accused of espionage, last time I checked spying on the government is a crime
You guys will all march us into nuclear war.
If you are a small person and want to get richer, your only option is to earn more resources. If we are talking on a national scale, then the second option appears here – to make everyone poorer. The easiest way is to unleash a war in other countries or their neighbors. Give weapons to the weak, shout about democracy, scare with fakes – your population will always appreciate, support and not check. All this will shift the balance of resources in your favor. This is the main aggressive path of the United States of America on the way to world hegemony. The war in Ukraine has been going on since 2014, when the armed forces of Ukraine first organized a blockade of ITS population in the city of Donetsk, and then artillery and aircraft bombed them for 8 years. 13,000 died for simply speaking Russian. I understand that this war is beneficial to you, but think about it. Check my words.
more antimissile battery ?????
Chuck Todd…always looking for the negative spin😉
Nuclear nuclear nuclear for the white privilleges.
what have you given us besides taking every thing from us.what advantage ?bombing and air restraint What a generation of liars. and workers of iniquity.
Bring Mother Russia to her knees before she does it to you
There is nothing else to bomb you have destroy everything already .Go get the money for your white privilege cousin Business Advancement you lost already by taking covid out of BA.You have war our bodies with your weapons of war for 5 years no media coverage.Now you come get the money such money out of us.What a shame
how about our personal security we send our children to school you destroy them tell the truth.
I agree with a no fly zone because Putin will stop at nothing.
Russia is suffering dearly from Bidens sanctions! Just like the MSM told us! See for yourself!
https://youtu.be/Xb8wmcavFPs
The white person says “we the liberal, democratic world” in short they are truly a racist people…
Here’s how the Russian people are suffering from Biden’s so-called sanctions. So how does this compare to Biden’s America. See for yourself. https://youtu.be/Xb8wmcavFPs
I don’t think I’m alone when I say I don’t want an other World War I honestly think standing back will bring just that Russia is sending soldiers from other countries why can’t every other country allow soldiers to be called in by Ukraine. Seeing how innocent people and kids are suffering is heartbreaking 😔
Due to a group having no actual legal liaisons to the other. Officially, NATO has no bones in this fight but for the sake of the free world and democracy we do need to be help.
I agree. This is about the Ukraine, Canada, Australia Europe, UE, USA that Putin’s said enemies of communism labeled as NAZISM. Wake up world. Xi Jinping & Putin dreamt of totalitarian regime in the world
Investing in crypto now should be in every wise individuals list, in some months time you’ll be ecstatic with the decision you made today.*
Really y’all know him? I even thought I’m the only one he has helped walk through the fears and falls of trading
Yes I can believe that, I got victory with him, I was so sad after receiving the first try knowing I invested so low with fear😓😫
I’m so happy for taking the bold step in working and investing $2000 with Mr LEO FREDDY after a week I received $6468 to my bank
Seen a lot of story about him, he must be honest and for people to talk this good about him
Marcella Wtf has that got to do with this you must be a broker
Please pray when you remember Pres Zelensky, his military & volunteers all over the world. All the countries supporting Ukraine. Let’s pray for peace, justice, courage and safety for all of them. May GOD in HEAVEN EMBRACE ALL OF THEM. IN JESUS’ NAME. AMEN
Kyan’s: ‼️🇺🇸❤️ I have just given you a MILLION likes for your Profound, Healing, and so Helpful comment LOVE, ‼️🇺🇸❤️🇺🇦🆘😭🇧🇬💔🆘🙏
I believe this is Putin’s smokescreen.He’s using Ukraine as chum to bate and/or force the US into a war, even on a small scale defending Ukraine so, that Putin can make a big deal about it & provoke an even larger war.
Spare no expense arming Ukraine
Stop The Steal – Don’t let Trumps steal our Democracy and make us like Russia!
NY DA Brag is corrupt …. he just dismissed the case against Trump. Our government is infiltrated at all levels with Trumpist. I fear for the lives of other DA still working the cases.
Support for Trumpism is a support for Putin. Lock Trump up and support freedom!
DOJ Garland has promised to hold Trump insurrectionist accountable.
Democracy will FAIL if Trump doesn’t get indicted!
no major arrest for seditious conspiracy leaders. The disgraced former president Trump, Trumps chief of staff and a gang of congressional members in the House and Senate who continue to conspired to undermine American democracy.
ww want accountability for the following –
1. meadows doesnt appear in front of commission that is contempt of congress….why doj wont arrest him is unethical. he didn’t appear, what more evidence is needed? !!……DOJ Failed
2. “hang mike pence”…criminal threat……DOJ Failed
3. offering pardons… witness tampering……DOJ Failed
4. inciting violence Jan 6 ……DOJ Failed
5. ToiletGate – trump destroyed government documents and took secret documents home after losing his job! see presidential records act for details of the law he violated.
6. interfering with elections……DOJ Failed
7. contempt of congress……DOJ Failed
8. fake electors ……DOJ Failed
9. kelly ward and spouse and others, impersonating as government electors even after Barr and Pence said one could not do that……DOJ Failed
10. Jeffrey Clark – co-conspirator for trying to weaponized the department of justice to overturn the election
11. Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act applies to what Trump did.
By summer time, Georgia is entering phase 2 of their prosecution efforts for election interference…… how slow. The earliest arrests will take place is towards the end of the year? !!
12. also, what about enforcing the 14th amendment of the Constitution of the United States? get rid of Cawthorn under section 3 of the 14th Amendment
13. muller prosecution……DOJ Failed…. statue of limitation expired!
14. Will New York speak with Trump under oath? hopefully by April. New York DOJ appears to be supporting Trumps so dont expect progress there!
now the committee says the big reveal has been done and all politicians should disvove Trump.
Weee P
PUTIN DON’T GO BY THE RULE OF LAW – HE IS THE RULE OF LAW AND WILL USE ALL ARSENAL AT HIS DISPOSAL: NUKE, CHEM, BIO WEAPON – YOU ARE GIVING PUTIN THE POWER TO CONTINUE HIS ATROCITIES, AGGRESSION AND GENOCIDE !
WHO WILL STOP PUTIN ?!
U.S. / EUROPEAN ALLIES / NATO – LEADERSHIP IS NOW PUTIN’S HOSTAGED AND A HOSTAGED OF THEIR OWN FEAR !
TOO SCARED TO GET INVOLVED FOR FEAR WAR WILL ESCALATE TO WW3 – ITS ALREADY STARTED !
BRAVERY DIES ONCE BUT COWARDICE DIES MANY TIMES – IT WILL COST DEARLY TO THE WORLD AND HUMANITY !
GOD BLESS AND LONG LIVE UKRAINE !
Its time to go all in!
Why? What’s the benefit to the US?
This issue with Ukraine is a NATO Affair! Ukraine applied for membership to NATO and Putin found out and preceded on invading Ukraine. NATO needs to process Ukraine’s Application for membership NOW. The entire NATO allies rulings Mandate’s need to take presidents to Saving Ukraine. The United States of Americans are to be placed First in our recovery from the WORLD WIDE Coronavirus PANDEMIC WAR SPREAD! Americans Citizen’s First for a change and recovery!
FAKE FOX NEWS IS PRO RUSSIAN, SEAN HANNITY AND TUCKER CARLSON ARE TRAITORS, BOYCOTT FAKE FOX NEWS ADVERTISORS LIKE USAA, LIBERTY MUTUAL, INDEED, TRAITOR TRUMP NEEDS TO GO TO PRISON ALONG WITH HIS FAMILY AND THE OWNERS OF FAKE FOX NEWS
Ukraine people are heros- Putin is a bully and Putin is gaslighting his people- the Russians; the Russian people need to wake up.
Yes!! Help these people! It’s the moral thing to do. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
All sitting in office doing talking only!
This wouldn’t of happened if trump was president, denial is a disease you freaks!
This people are so foolish. Russia is not going to surrender to the sanctions or any military action from Ukraine or the West. The US should lead by trying to establish peace. It is clear what Russia wants, no more expansion of NATO. They have showed how much they want that by invading Ukraine. We knew this for many years. They knew the West would retaliate with sanctions and cancel culture actions. We should have used less expansion of NATO for Russia’s assistance to pressure Iran North Korea. Now Russsia will be looking to bolster Iran since the West has labeled it enemy #1. We have just seen this with a missile strike in nothern Iraq. We showed our weakness to dominate in energy by appealing to OPEC and Venezuela. One thing we forget in the West is that the Middle East and Asian nations, such as China and India, don’t share our view on Western expansion of democracy. They consider it expansion of European and US ideals. The attempt to cancel Russia is evidence that if the NATO wants to expand at a high cost.
.
Well considering how the VP thinks it’s a joke then why don’t you
Too short! Would have loved to hear a longer discussion.
I hope Companies like Tiffany’s, Gucci, and other high end Commodity Stores are presently ending their
Tenure in Russia!
DESTROY PUTIN BIDEN CHINA COMMUNISTS
McFull?? Please show respect and get your guests names correctly. You’re supposed to be a professional news organization not a third rate news purveyor in the US. Ambassador McFall deserves an apology for taking his name for granted. What a shame NBC News.
LOOK AT ITTHIS WAY CONTINUEING THE LIE IS EASIER THAN TELLING THE TRUTH ABOUT THE BREACH TO NATO SECURITY OF TWO YEARS IS STILL NOT REPAIRED ALLOWING FOR YOUR DIALOG TOPIC TO CONTINUE THE DERAILED SECURITY STATUS OF OTHER NATO ALLIANCE MEMBERS. LETS NOT OVERLOOK YOUR TENDENCY TO EMBEZZLE ACCOUNTS AND FUNDS FROM THE CENTRAL BANK SECURITY ALSO COMPROMIZED? TREASON.BY AMERICAN TERROR GROUP OF REPUBLICANS STARTING A CONFLICT AND ESCALATING IT TO WAR STATUS THE ORIGINAL WAR CRIME MADE BY ZELENSKY AND NATIONAL SECURITY IN THE SECURITY ZONE CALLED UKRAINE.
#CallPutinsBluff
There are mercenary fighters on the ground willing to fight the Russians. Why aren’t there any mercenary pilots in the air flying military jets???
Some day the US will find itself fighting multiple adversaries and no country willing to come to its aid.
Biden’s wethdrawal forces from Afghanistan handover $85B US citizen taxes to criminal murderer terrorist Taliban , encourage Putin to invade Ukraine and more
Putin is a predator. I pray leaders see this and deal with him accordingly.
WAKE UP WORLD LEADERS! Ukraine is fighting for the world, shedding their blood so we can save ours! Give them EVERYTHING they need, if Putin gets away with murder again, we’ll have to shed NATO and American blood down the road! If no planes, then give them missile defense systems, but we should give them the planes and tell Putin to go fuc….himself! Wish our leaders had spines like Ukraines president! God bless Ukraine!
What western media won’t show you.
The real Ukrainian government using children as soldiers.
https://youtu.be/0XTMa7_SM6c
The acrid thunder histologically damage because tablecloth transmurally grate except a wiggly notebook. aromatic, weak town
it is beyond normalcy that after providing so many of arms to Ukraine, fighter jets were not provided to the country which is heroically fighting and dying.. for democracy and its rights.
It’s looting time !
The Russians know urban warfare will be bloody. The battles of Stalingrad and Leningrad were fought in Russia, they get it. These mercenaries are expendable and sending them in reduces casualties among the regular soldiers. Reducing casualties keeps the facts from the Russian people.
Getting it really big with 👆👆 my blockchain account just got topped up with 170BTC payment from 👆👆
Russia brings in fighters from other countries to do the things he don’t want to have to answer for…so as the excuse that they weren’t directly under Russia’s control
“We have failed to call out Russia’s behavior in a way that Russia finds persuasive, or taken steps to stop it that Moscow finds compelling. If we continue to fumble around, we will someday, maybe soon, find ourselves in a serious confrontation in a context not of our choosing and not to our advantage.” Marie Yovanovitch, Summer 2021
Yovanovitch was fired by my president MR DONALD J TRUMP.
Experts?! 😳🙄🤨🙄🤣😂🤣
🤒🗣NATO pls takes actions to stop this atrocities invasion; what👹 Putin wants is whole EU, Ukraine is the only beginning. Today’s Ukraine will be tomorrow EU/NATO.
Feel that fear dudes, as you send fears to palestine, libya, iraq, Tunisia
Marie Yovanavich.
He’s right, its also about Palestinian freedom as well. CHUCK TODD….WE LOVE YOU, BUT WE ARE SO DISAPPOINTED 😞. WE LIKE TO IMAGINE THAT THE PROBLEM IS REALLY WITH NBC AND NOT YOU PERSONALLY. YOU’RE DEFINITELY SMART ENOUGH TO UNDERSTAND! We’re here to meet the press….not face the nation 🧐
Why are all these “experts” publicly discussing strategies that are sure to alert Putin and allow him to preemptively strike based on these proposed plans? Do they think Putin doesn’t watch NBC?
احلا واقوى قناه اخبار
what freedom.. did you think about it when you invaded Iraq and Afghanistan?
Ukraine fights for the West. The West just does not see it yet.
America is now I believe is a deceiving nation. Your concerns and your words are worthless compare to the blood of the innocents in Ukraine!!!
The Russians may not be as well equipped or supplied as many think. Despite being the largest country in the world Russia has a GNP (economy) smaller than Italy. Putin and his cronies have stolen trillions from the Russian people and stored it in Euros , pounds and dollars etc . They may have siphoned off enough money to effect infrastructure and the military. Corruption and some incompetence may be at play. Too many people in leadership who used political means to climb the ladder?
Marie Yovanovitch is a trader!
Chuck wrapped that interview up quick. He was way out of his league in that group. Should’ve just sat in silence and let them talk
McFaul is legit insane. Russiagate brain worms.
Lies lies
I happened on this video scrolling through Youtube. These are my 3 favorite people (Fmr Ambassador Yovanovitch, Adm Stavridis and Fmr Ambassador McFaul) right now. All three are brilliant, thoughtful, and so eloquent in their explanations. Get those planes to the Ukrainian pilots, train them, and let them decide how, when and where to use them.
No this is about turning the Ukrainian to a Barren Wasteland and you can blame that on Joe Biden and Barack Obama 2014
The Downald Trump President used all American Tomahawk missiles in Libya war .
NATO have don`t Army general has enough experience to fight on real Battlefield .
Biden and NATO are weak
The Old NATO General ,are leader Of NATO army, will have a heart, and die before going to the battlefiels holding a gun
Ahhhh thank you Ms Nuland….Ukraine has BIO -Logical chemical …was confirmed …so stop lying
Chuck really should not be host. WTF happened to this show? 😞
How do you fly fighter jets when the Russians can and have bombed the runways at your air bases?
Going to allow Ukrainian fighters to operate out of other nations ? That’s involvement in the conflict
Check this out somebody barely just tapped my firewall on my phone.
