At relatively short notice, we’re organising two events in Ukraine in the last week of January. Lviv (part 2) and Kyiv. The event we ran in August 2023 was a huge success, and had a great impact. Now our aim is even more ambitious. Two cities. Two events. Multiple panels consisting of the best experts, and all filmed in high definition for the channel.

But it costs. Last time the overall cost was £3,500 for Live in Lviv, and we covered 80% of this through ticket sales. This time the costs are higher, and there’s less opportunity to sell tickets at the available venues and studios, so I’m creating a campaign to raise £5,000 to make this trip a reality. We also have a much more ambitious programme to film interviews around Kyiv and Lviv for the channel. This project will have an impact, so please help if you can.

The way I understand now why in the Eastern Europe being in the army is associated with being dumb – people that join any sort of forces ( police forces, army etc) are there for the money. The people joining these forces get big salaries and the right to retire early ( 45 years old or close) and the other people look at them as being fat and disgustingly obtuse.
On the other hand this is a legacy from the times Easter Europe was under the soviet occupation. The armies of the occupied countries were kept undeveloped, with a poor morale regarding the nationalist feelings. This is why o think being in the army is some sort of shame – the people in the army need to become professional and have at heart that we have predatory Russia as a neighbour
Ukrania is not going to ricover territory anyymore that is sure 100%, this channel is not realistic. Trump is more realistic, so is going to freeze the conflict.
So now you’re going to insult me and call me a high school dropout.
trump and supporters doing things just to oppose the other side?…. yay, more of that. lets not forget what happened when mr lets go brandon took office. did the same thing. childish. knock it off. smarten up.
Jake’s an excellent speaker.
Americans had to undenstarnd is not territorial war, the main goal is to dont let Ukrania be a succesful country under USA /Euro relationship.
Who are going to produce all the hardware that will be needed if all of NATO is increasing by, lets just say 1-2% over a short timespan?
Please say some more about the frozen money.
Is Trump trying to get them released?
Time will tell.
You claim the net is full of ppl talking up Russia's strength and progress? I see the opposite. I mainly see ppl like Jake predicting the imminent collapse of Russia, every week since about a month or two into the war. It's everywhere, it's way more prevalent than ppl talking Russia up, yet it still hasn't happened.
Just read Trump is looking at changing policy,Anyone born in the US is not automatically an American citizen,so can we call Donald a foreigner, a criminal and deport him with the mass deportation?
For Jake,condolences
Canada is now looking for other trade partners,we will bypass the US
I watch every thing daily for hrs I care about the Ukraine government
Thanks, guys.
Check out the US trade deficit with China….who is the biggest freeloader?
What holds NATO together? Other than trust?
Can we trust Trump?
Warthog Defense is a great channel on YouTube.
Hi Jake
I can comprehensively say that most veterans in the UK are respected and often thanked for their service. As I am sometimes when people realise I have serviced.
TDS …so sad!!!
After Elon Musk spoke at the inauguration he gave a NAZI salute, tells what kind of garbage he is.
When Russia collapses, it will be massive. The collective west clearly didn’t want this to happen as it will be massive security risks in Eastern Europe and Asian. Most western governments clearly hoped Putin would have stopped this war in 2022, like Macron giving Putin many ‘off ramps’. Putin is destroying Russia to save face. If Putin stopped the war, he would be seen as very weak and would likely be assassinated. Putin clearly has no choice but to continue until off of Ukraine is taken or destroyed, but it is clearly obvious that his war machine will not be able to continue. At the current rate of occupation, which is around 0.01% of Ukraine per week, it would take around 184 years to take all of Ukraine. You could argue that once Kiev has fallen, then rest would fall, BUT, Kiev is NOT in the East and not in the middle, so, at the current rate of occupation, it would many decades to get anywhere near Kiev. There is no way this would happen before Putin dies of old age!
The war is lost, 100%.
Could be that Trump bailed Putin out by suspending all foreign aid 90 days "
which rules out my fear not at all that Putin bought and black mailed Trump during secret meetings with Trump where all Americans but Trump were ordered out.
Allow Russia to win and rebuild and humanity most likely will get results similar to Germany rebuilding from defeat in World War I in 1918 to attacking Poland in 1939 and starting World War II.
The dynamic between you and Jake is outstanding, keep doing this regularly. Thanks
I think you are simply to young to have such a boisterous opinion. I'm almost 60, a war veteran with far more time in uniform than you have and my education would hang as nicely on any wall as your own. I enjoy watching you because you are intelligent and offer conjecture and varied opinions…… but this opinion you hold about Trump is simply your age. I've grown accustomed to young men in America simply being weak and soft. Your voice is even soft. America if it wants to survive in America needs to harden back up. Literally the American decline internationally mirrors the softening of our country. Hard times make hard men hard men make good times good times make soft men which makes hard times……. and here we are.
Jake is so helpful & the best at reporting
Íiii
What would happen if Trump drops Ukraine and Ukraine decides to go Nuclear. Why shouldn't Ukraine have nuclear weapons. Would putin then use nuclear weapons against Ukraine, if so what would the west do then?
@jakebro please publish and comment on the Ludacris sorts of mail you receive. There must be some gems …
Ukraine needs the land they lost AND Crimean Peninsula
