Gonzalo never ever stated he wanted Russia to defeat Ukraine. He always made a point of saying he wanted peace & he wasn't wanting one side or another to win. He was always careful about that. He was against fascism & attacks on civilian areas. Which proves what the Ukrainian forces are.

So what do you expect when it comes to defend someone that is going against your interest???

Mr Lira Sr: I'm deeply moved by your words and emotions on your son Gonzalo, on human rights, on justice and peace. Your every word is just, your every word is of integrity and deep, basic humanity and love for son. I'm fully on your side and I shall act accordingly. George: Thank you for having Mir Lira Sr. Thank you for your wise words, compassion and the appeal to all viewers. Joe Biden, the resident of the White House was willing to negotiate with president Putin a release of an American woman basketball player detained on the charge of drug trafficking. Released not long afterwards and let home - America. Joe Biden, America as such, has no will to care for Gonzalo Lira, the American citizen! Not held for murder, not held for drug trafficking but detained for his basic human right of expressing his own opinions! It's so cynical of Biden, it's so immoral, to the core. Mr Lira Sr is very right by saying that people get worse with time. Very true, very accurate definition on the American politics, politicians, and so many American people. They vote for such outrageous politicvians as Biden is, the approve of such governments and such politics. They agree to the proxy war exercised by America against Russia, through corrupt, demoralized, destructive Zelensky and his dirty, murderous regime. The get paid well for this by the US. America is deeply ill, America is rotten. Since America is big ans powerful, no servant will tell his master the words of truth and will not disobey. Neither Canada, United Kingdom, Gemany, France, nor any other NATO state will tel and refuse to act wrongly. All world beyond sees it and draws conclusions. And turns back to America and its servants. Paytime has some and we see just the beginnin. AS GONZALO LIRA HAS BEEN SAYING: RUSSIA IS ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF HISTORY. GONZALO IS ALIKE.

I shed tear 😢 listening to Gonzalo dad.. this is inhumane and i cant imagine whats Gonzalez is going through and probably being tortured.. this is heartbreaking indeed .. And the fact the US kept silent speaking volumes ...
Thank you Mr Galloway for facilitating that passionate and, moving appeal by Mr Gonzalo Lira Sr. There was a time when the situation and circumstances of his son were doubted by some critics - that he was not genuine - that he was exaggerating, or inventing his position and location. Perhaps this was because of a previous arrest and subsequent release last year. There were queries about why would they release him, allowing him continued access to the internet to transmit his views; views which were overtly critical of the Ukraine leadership and the war. However, I think we can now be certain that Mr Lira Jr is very real and genuine re his location and circumstances. Whether he was extremely brave, foolish, or both, it seems he was unable or unwilling to escape from the region and the dangers surrounding him. I didn't always agree with him but always enjoyed his broadcasts and viewpoints. The lack of intervention, or even comment by the US and Chilean governments is deeply cynical and beyond belief. I pray Gonzales Jr is alive and well - that he soon may be released to continue a lifestyle of his own choosing, among friends and family.
Excellent Interview George Galloway. God bless you George, in the name of Jesus Christ
All prayers to you and your family. We all love Gonzalo and wish the quick freedom and peace for your family.
Brave father. Brave son. I am praying for his safe return. So very sorry and so appalled.

It's kind of ironic to have his dad speak out for him now since GL wasn't very kind to him whenever he referred to him and how it was growing up with him. I don't even think he was on speaking terms with him. Kudos to his dad for still showing up for his son though. It really is true what they say: blood is thicker than water.

Thank you so much, George, for standing up for Gonzalo: God bless you 🙏
Thank you for airing this important update! I've been praying for Gonzalo since he was taken. He always knew he was walking that thin line but chose to take the risk. He needs to get the heck out of Ukraine because of the kind of work he does! I truly hope the US embassy and other officials will protect his rights and give him opportunity to defend himself. From what I gathered there might be some health issues too, I pray he is strong enough to fight back and others will also fight for him! Thank you again for this airing, please have Gonzo's dad on again soon to keep getting the word out.

My dear Mr. Galloway, I post here this comment because today, Thursday 3 August, we know Gonzalo is out and is trying to reach Hungary to seek asylum, but there are no news about him, about what happened and about what is going on with this terrible situation. Perhaps it's now time to support again his cause, perhaps he need some help, perhaps this is the moment to say loud and clear: hands off from Gonzalo!
To invoke human or civil right for Gonzalo and hope that US or Ukranian officials would be movdd Ed d to act benevolently in this case is to ignore reality. Gonzalo himself know that this cabal of criminals have no qualms about the pointless deaths of hundred of thousands of Ukrainians, have American citizens on their death list. In what way could they care less about making Gonzalo’s children fatherless? We can only hope that Gonzalo is more use to them alive. Let us hope and pray that it will be so.
