I have long said that Robby was wrong about Ukraine's chances… glad to see he finally is starting to understand.
Robbie seems surprisingly out of touch with the realities of the Ukr/Rus front lines with regard to drones. I’ve know all this for many months. Where is he getting his information? Main stream media ? Wow.
Ukraine gave up its nukes in 1994. Russia has nukes. Drone warfare? Nukes may prevail.
Wow Robbie back to back propoganda segments. The Ukrainian identity is being erased. Russias original capital is Kiev you idiot.
Why people in the comments section are wanting Nialls to stay is beyond me smh. His voice hurts
This guy went to Ukraine for the propaganda
At 2:43 this guy stop lying dude
Okay tell the truth now …Ukraine civilians = 15,890 Collateral damage after 4.5 years …Now compare Israel 2 years 75.700 Killed ….WHO is killing Civilians …NOT Russia after the time …
Mate as Australian you need to back to 2008 …. for Russian and Ukraine conflict
Russia finish it.
Nice try, Robby.
If Russia wanted to take over all of Ukraine why did they never send enough troops to do so?
Why have they only occupied those parts of Ukraine in which the majority of the people are Russian?
See John Mearsheimer's 2015 presentation on Ukraine. It holds up amazingly well eleven years later.
Why was it okay for South Sudan to declare independence from Sudan, but not okay for Donetsk and Luhansk to declare independence from Ukraine?
But for that, this war could have been avoided.
NATO expansion has caused this. American voters want to get USA out of NATO. Total land grab. Europe is broken, needs expansion because it knows it lost it's power in world.
Robbie's heel turn to the darkside is complete. From freedom loving America firster, to neocon warmongering zionist. Barri Weiss claims another scalp.
Does anyone actuality think Putin will not use nuclear bombs if Russia starts to lose? Every alliance, every partner country that is turning on Russia is a step towards nuclear warfare. But wait, Ukraine has no nuclear bombs so for there to be nuclear warfare another country will have to respond to Russia's use of nuclear weapons and that will be WW3. Let's not forget this war has shown every nation that at any time, for any reason, EU/NATO countries can agree to seize a countries assets, including individual assets and including money in the banking system. At any time for any reason the EU/NATO countries can agree to sanction a country resulting in incredible hardships for the citizens of a country that may be controlled by a dictator, actually expecting the citizens to revolt and win. The best is when the actions of the EU/NATO push their enemies together into a alliance. I hope this doesn't turn into a giant FAFO. 🙏🏻
Thankful the USA has 2 oceans backing up it's military because the USA doesn't need to be dying in another WW.
Robbie the propaganda mouthpiece pathetic.
40,000 children butchered with US weapons.
The war in Ukraine was started by the US in 2014.
Mouthpiece Robbie regurgitating what the Ukrainian liars fed him.
Disgusting.
Okay they r off,America is the problem in this war.
Ukraine lost. They should give up now before they lose it all.
Ukraine is promoting the idea of a frozen war along the demarcation line rather than fighting for all territories.
Your time dealing with Lindsey surely prepared you well for a combat zone.
Russia invaded Ukraine in 2014 not 2022. Can we please get these facts straight?
I see Ukraine as a young USA. Ever since the war began. 😢
Good that the the author finally saw the facts and saw some light
Spewing Ukraine propaganda must pay well, or have you been blackmailed?
“F” Ukraine 🇺🇦 😝
Oh Look Another CIA Sock Puppet 😂
I bet this war hasn't slowed down Ukraines CP industry one iota.. Ukraine it a disgusting country.
Communism is still The Enemy.

Xi Jinping has failed so completely the CCP will soon be replacing him.
The ongoing energy crisis and the Strait of Hormuz blockade have severely constrained Beijing’s geopolitical leverage, fundamentally shifting the strategic calculus regarding Taiwan.
The combination of domestic economic strain, naval vulnerabilities, and the realities of cross-strait warfare presents an incredibly high-risk scenario for Xi Jinping.
His saber rattling about Taiwan is what all authoritarians do when they fail politically and economically, they threaten.
However Communists historically have preferred subversion to direct warfare, mostly because they are cowards.

Iran:
Leaked documents and former intelligence officials have alleged a scheme where Venezuelan oil revenues and Chinese credit lines were funneled to Iranian state firms and entities linked to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), helping to fund Iran's nuclear program and its armed allies like Hezbollah and Hamas. Venezuelan state airlines have allegedly provided air corridors and financial infrastructure for Iranian and Hezbollah operatives and sanctions-evasion schemes.
Russia and China:
Russia and China have maintained strong strategic and economic ties with the Maduro government, providing support, military equipment, and financial assistance that help Venezuela evade U.S. sanctions. While not typically labeled "terrorist" partners by U.S. officials in the same vein as non-state actors, their support is seen as propping up the sanctioned regime and undermining U.S. pressure campaigns.
Cuba:
The U.S. has targeted oil shipments to Cuba, with allegations that the Maduro regime has relied heavily on Cuban military and intelligence support to remain in power, making the oil trade a critical part of a mutual support system.
NATO has the Cold War 2 they designed planned and wanted badly, to steal trillions more from Europe and American taxpayers.
yay!
What's behind the story that Ukrainian citizens are being kidnapped off the streets and forced to fight?
The old advantage of Russia being so large has turned into a disadvantage – how do you defend so much territory against drones?
What do Ukrainians think of Zelensky?
Wow. 2 people talking respectfully to one another…who knew.
Russia has gotten bogged down in a catastrophic quagmire because of their blind rage and disdain towards Ukraine. They need to learn a painful lesson
Good to see Robbie, a fellow Libertarian, back in the news seat. He's one of the few I usually agree with, and know he's not giving us party line information at least.
Did you get both sides of the story Robbie? Or just one side?
Did the Ukranian drones avoid all civilians too? Or did the ones that struck the oil refineries in Russia avoid all civilians too?
Robby went to the Ukraine War to get peace and quiet from Lindsay and finally finish a sentence.
Trump could have come out and said he would start more wars than any president ever and maga would have still voted for him
What Putin did to Ukraine is disgusting and evil. He might pay the ultimate price, his life after directly causing the death of millions. That said, our elites and especially the EU elites were nakedly trying provoke a WW between Russia and the USA. The EU wasn't going to spend any money or blood, only the USA.
Great to Niles back!!! The lady was terrible using shallow democrat party talking points. Might as well have had Chuck Schumer instead.
I always prefer Robbie and Nigel. They're both able to finish a though.
We absolutely need to be scrutinizing every dollar spent. but we should also allow Ukraine to buy things from U.S. manufacturers.
Robby I'm so glad you took that trip and saw the situation with your own eyes. I am a supporter of Ukraine, I participate in donations when needed. I wish more reporters would have the courage to do what you did, report from the front lines and bring the message home to the naive American public.
And without YouTube's blatant censorship, goodbye Robby. My subscription can be found with your propaganda, that is, in the trash bin.
No Lindsey! Yay!
Russia watched as NATO gangsters moved to surround them for decades after the reunification of Germany.
They watched as the Obama gangsters staged a coup against the Russia- friendly Ukrainian government of Yanukovych in 2013.
Eventually, they had no choice but to act in defense of their very existence.
But the Russians are supposed to be seen as the aggressors?
Ukraine is a military dictatorship, no elections or free press. Your story was approved by the ruling military government.
Not once did Soave mention Zelensky, correctly noting that it is the Ukrainian people who are determined to retake their occupied territory.
