How Putin's web of corrupt allies became Ukraine's 'secret weapon' | Mark Galeotti



“If there is any sort of kick off in Chechnya, the question is who would deal with it when his armies, I think 97% of all operational ground forces are currently deployed to Ukraine.”

Putin’s delicate web of allies have a tendency to undermine Russia and underestimate Ukraine says Mark Galeotti discussing concerns that the leader of Chechnya could be dying.

  1. 0:14 Also no!

    Option 1: another despot comes to power, uncle Adolf was a symptom, dirtpoor German population under insane war debt repayments to France suffering inflation like nothing before. Something had to break. Even if not:

    option 2, Stalin would have gotten to the top anyway, and gotten Europe with 0 military buildup there, easy prey, all the way the the Med and the North Sea. The war over Britain would have happened anyway except against Bolshevik planes.

  3. This does explain a lot about Kadyrov’s seemingly bizarre tendency to drop to the ground and start doing push-ups on Chechen live TV. Probably sensitive about health rumours.

  4. A west that’s over staffed with mentally deficient warmongers & a US leader who’s brain has gone on a permanent vacation always accuse their rivals of having days to live, heart attacks a every other illness under the Sun.

  6. Zelensky will never be killed by Russia. If anything, i.e. the Russians want him, he will be caught and judged, but NOT before his mandate as the President of Ukraine runs out, in about a week's time (21st May). If killed he would be, this will certainly be done by his own inner circle or his army SBU.

  8. Good grief, man. Zelensky is not a military man or has been in the Army. He's a B grade actor at best. He has the blood of thousands of dead Ukrainians on his hands. Clealy, you 2 Muppets are medication 💊.

  9. Russia is learning with the west hou to use corruption as a weapon, apart of becoming one of the greatest weapons procuders. The US and the puppet states in Europe are in decline, and the global south is rising.

  10. Give up. The British people don't want a war with Russia. And we've had enough of people like Boris Churchill too, they have no place in a genuine democratic government. Stop wasting our taxes now please.

  11. The real problem is that this world is rebelling against our duties toward God and fellow humans as taught by Jesus. National policymakers do not even wish to consider Jesus’ words when He said, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you…” This is how President Putin, at the peak of his political power in July 2016, defied Jesus' authority to evangelize the entire world by forbidding the preaching of Jesus' instructions regarding proper human behavior toward God and toward our fellow humans. After defying Jesus’ instructions, President Putin's national and international standing has experienced a severe political drop, and now he needs to support his government through very repressive means of governance.
