I was a member of PBS and supported it for years. I now realize they are just another USA propaganda machine. They tell a story, which makes Americans feel good about themselves. They ignore all the atrocities the US commits in spreading democracy. They are the bully who beats up on small countries to make them kneel to USA wishes. One day those countries are going to group together and they will be strong united and Americans will feel what it is like to have your supplies, your food, your fuel cut off because of sanctions on the USA. America has lost its humanity and lives for power.

i agree it's rare for American media to expect the listener to pay attention for longer than a few seconds. This is a great interview with a very experieinced writer. There are some excellent questions posed and answered. I believe the writer would have benefited from learning the ruzzian language and spending some time there in preprartion for his writings. Also this segment speaks volumes for it's ' US centric ' focus, something that keeps America from having closer friends in the world. The name Boris Johnson never was mentioned, someone who history will treat very well in relation to his leadeship during the war. Britain's and the intelligence gathered by all the countries around ruzzia, were substantial, and pivotal The Baltic states and Poland were never mentioned,,, crucial to Urkaine and it's initial efforts.

Remember at a 2012 Presidential debate when Mitt Romney said Russia was the biggest threat to the US/democracy and everyone laughed at him?

What I have seen makes me believe Putin wants to cooperate and do business with the West he just isn't willing to let the US dictate to everyone else.

What you are implicitly saying is that Putin has the right to make Ukraine his vassal like he did with Belarus and that helping Ukraine to escape that fate is somehow a form of disrespect to Russia. Russia doing so scares the hell out of a lot of countries in Europe and America helping them and helping Ukraine is very important to them. Putin seeing himself as the new Tsar, the savior of Russia? Come on. That is obvious for everybody who really followed him. Maybe not literally but the signs are everywhere. He always has a statue of one of his favorite Tsars near and his ideas about Ukraine (little Russia) are directly from Tsarist propaganda. He is also a real autocrat. And he is a 19th century colonialist. And yes these things are obvious too. Ukraine was a colony and Putin tries to recapture it because great powers have a right to possess colonies. That is how he thinks and the US does not respect the right Putin has to handle his own colony and that is why the US is the aggressor. You can decide for yourself if you agree with that but the Ukrainians clearly do not, most western European countries except Hungary do not. The US does not.

Many good parts in this piece BUT this guy is a bozo to blame Pres Trump for not being firm with Putin. Robinson insinuates that Pres Trump was sounding like he was going to let NATO swim by themselves if anybody was actually or potentially going to invade one or the whole lot. And this is years ago when Pres T insisted NATO countries put at least 2% of their GDP into their military forces, per the agreement; many were not & were counting on USofA to protect them from whatever problem(s) arose. And to say Biden Joe was tough, & sounded tough, towards Putin while Russia was building up forces is a shame. Putin would NOT have invaded IF Pres Trump was still CinC.

Nah. Bush was a fool. Putin's speciality is communication and manipulation. That's what he learned in KGB. He knew exactly how to exploit Bush's evangelicalism with a huge story about a piece of jewelry Putin wore... a christian cross. Bush saw in Putin a fellow christian, which is exactly what Putin had planned. Bush was played. Just like Putin played Trump.

Trumps FAULT

12:50 - the thing is, though, even under the Soviet regime, even under the regimes prior to that, Russia has always been a kleptocracy. And that other word you were looking for is "nomenklatura."

Well, I must say.this is what the world does not need.

Norway stand with NATO. You should help Sweden with turkish hostility, US reps.

It's still strange to think that in the time we've had 5 Presidents in the U.S., Putin has been either President or Prime Minister during all that time.

He's like Robert DeNiro in casino: circumventing the rules by changing his title, lol. He'll be the Secretary of the State next term while whispering into some stooges ear.

I'm watching all of these, and it's notable how frequently certain people say "umm". It's VERY IRRITATING.

There is nothing better to unite a divided people than an outside aggressor. Now, that is true for countries, but it also seems to be true for alliances.

3:07 to address the question. He stops at the point where he gets a nosebleed. unfortunately for all of us, that's the only kind of argument he and his fellow russians recognize.

Kleptocracy Leader

And his nukes can backfire He doesn’t have a clue what is going to happen

An outstanding analysis.

Replace “Putin” with “Xi.” All the claims still holds true.

After Kuwait, Putin ought to have understood that a war of aggression was the ONE thing that would galvanize the world into unified action.

Should the US have paid more attention to what Putine said? Sure. But who would have know that? ONLY every Russian who was ever worth listening to... starting with Mikhail Khodorkovsky...

Eugene Robinson for PRESIDENT....

41:34 what about Trumps past dealings with russia???

Once Putin had carisma, but it turned into evil

What a great historical analysis of Putin, Russian and low self-stem after disolución of the Soviet union.

Putin has made sure that Russia returns to 1920.

These interviews should have Russian subtitles or better still a version in Russian with English subtitles. Russians need to know other points of view.

Most people don't seem to be familiar with the concept of irredentism.

If Presidential Immunity is the question... With benefits of Seal Team Six... isn't Biden the President?
