Nico talks like he’s fighting the war. He mentions many times “we should not be afraid of Putin mind/intentions”. So easy to say when only Ukrainians and Russians are fighting and dying. The guy lives in an alternative reality it seems. What a bad member for this panel, a total joke.
Uraa 🇷🇺
We can't continue to scare ourselves into never standing up to this bully, thug, mafia killer. The only thing Putler understands is strength!! Never back down to this murderer!! This is why Ukraine will never win this war. We must stand up to this KILLER!!
One bored old man who lost interest in addressing the pension crisis, rotting infrastructure, and diversification of the economy decided to be a glory boy instead. There are good reasons for presidential term limits, as Plato wrote in Republic.
🙆♂️Wow! Wisdomless at a superlative degree
There is an old saying in Africa, if you keep saying, we’re not afraid, again and again, then you are really scared 😮😮😮
russia is already in full mobilisation. they mobilise 30k a month which is about what they can mobilise without totally break down. incidenrally their loss rate in killed in action is about 30k a month as well. however in totaö army is shrinking despite this mobiöisarion as their losses exveed their ability to get more man power….. to rhe killed tou have to add the maimed and severly injuried. which conservativeöy use to be 3 times as many.
"Nico Lange" reminds me of Sadam Hussain's Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mohammed Saeed al-Sahhaf, or to West as: Comical Ali …even when the bombs were dropping, he infamously denied they were losing the war.🤣
Que hueva ese NATO 🥱 Ya vayan a por los rusos. ¿Cuando entrarán de lleno en esa guerra para poner a Rusia en su lugar? ¿O es que no pueden? En Latam ya da pereza esa guerra, nada nuevo y serio contra Rusia.
ประธานาธิบดีปูตินสนใจเรื่องนี้เขาว่าเทคนิคแบบไหนวะนี่ลองหาข่าวดูท่านประธานาธิบดีที่เมืองไทยท่านรู้จักคนเยอะแยะถามทีเดียวเดี๋ยวก็รู้ความจริง
Shoigu never was a military man also. Never serve in the army. To be replace by an economist is not a big change. Army people still go ahead.
The German arms manufacturer sponsors out in force on this uncomfortable propoganda exercise.
The aim of the exercise and the sold out merchant of death « panelists » is clearly to fuel the U.S. neocon aim of provoking a wider proxy war through its German vassal in order to serve US neocon interests and profit from the chaos of permanent lost wars tactics.
Sickeningly foolish.
Germany should take back control of its great destiny through its millennial cultural identity and military strength.
NATO, US and EU are finished.
Thank God for mankind’s sake.

As a German I think Tony played a Song in the Bar to Welcome Russia in Ukraine in General and in Kharkiv in Particular :"Thanks Russia for defeating Us in Europe"
The war depends of Xi not Putin, Xi will say how long the war will last.
Leave Blinken's band alone, he has the right to play his guitar whenever he wants lmao
White House, the USA? The war is in Eastern Europe!! Europe!! We can not produce even 10% that the Ukrainians need. We always need the US. It is time to grow up and stop crying for daddy. We are the cause and the shame!!
Poland didn't even shoot down a missile that entered their own airspace!! 😂😂. You think they're going to shoot down missiels over Ukraine?? 😂😂
West are looter and richer now time is changing . White politics are not working …!
Of cos.. if the ukraine never surrender war will continue.. never change
It's a tragic war that is creeping towards Europe.
