  • Fuck you Medvedev , and your lies about people dissapearing . Criminals in Belarus serving the american Socialistinternational and international democrat union had it coming , this is called High-Treason and is punishable , and russias Free-Oil for USA and other Yeltsin reforms led the country to starvation . Can you love a neighbor that is starving his own family? Russia starves its own people and you talk trash about a socialist nation you fucking imperialist..

  • @SaszaBY --- All right it isn't BUT in this world you have to be part of something.

    UKRAINE choose the other side , WHERE they lead NOW in AIDS SIDA inffected people Number 1 in Europe. Their economy SCREWED up by USA Free Market Bullshit.

    Not just Ukranian economy , Croatia Bulgaria Romania Serbia are FUCKED up. CROATIA in NATO but it is on verge of bankruptcy, Wright now as we speak demonstrations 25-26-27 february are in progress to take down the goverment.

  • what the fuck Belarus part of Russia, we were never part of Russia even more seychas.po living standards ahead of some countries evropy.My not intend you to cave in America.

  • Belorussia is good Russian Federation is good and Belorussia is part of Russian Federation problems should be adressed and fixed.

  • @aviomaster Fuck you, Belarus isn't part od russia.

  • @SaszaBY aviomaster is from Bosnia according to his profile. He must be a Bosnian Serb and Serbs are pro Russia.

    I hope Belarus is doing well.

  • На 1:40 женщина в кандебобере!

  • All problem that in Russia no more Russian prsident. Mr. Medvedev- Mendel Juish and he don't like Lukashenko because he think a little about his people and people in small and poor Belarus live better than in reach and big Russia. And most people from Russia that visit Belarus last 5 years want president like Lukashenko///

  • Anyone who expects any government or politician to act without self interest is at best naive. It is always nice when self interest aligns with what is moral and ethical.

    It even happens in the west now and then. I hope it happens more often, if it did the world would be a much better place for everyone.

  • El Lukasheno este hace tiempo que tenía que haber hecho las maletas e irse a Londres, a lamerle el culo a Brezovsky.

  • Если россия начала кампанию травли, есть мысль задуматься почему? И ответ не заставит себя ждать. Везде, куда влезала россия, были проблеммы, причем большие. А мы простые россияне, нехотим чтоб Вы были под гнетом наших олигархов, достаточно что мы от них терпим.

  • The next career of Lukashenko will be polishing shoes for Vladimir Putin

  • ни хрена се.. он ещё и русский знает :) а эм шокед

  • Назовите мне пожалуйста авторов и название этих книг, которые восхваляют Сталина.

  • Короче вывод - запад нихрена не знает о нашей стране со времени распада СССР, лучше бы я эту чушь не читал, только накрутил себя...

  • @serbumer Эх, да ладно, не только вы... Кстати, именно такими они и хотят нас видеть - "anti-human barbarians" должны стоять на коленях и слезно каяться за "преступления прошлого"... а уж они там на Западе будут решать, что "enough", и что "not enough" )))

    Так что мой совет: не читайте комменты к Russia Today. Убежденного русофоба вам не переспорить НИКОГДА, только нервы попортите )))

  • Те, кто считает, что по улицам городов моей страны ходят медведи в шапках ушанках - пишите, я готов Вас бесплатно просвещать=) Переводите, уважаемые представители с запада=)

  • Да, и опять, когда речь пошла о России - ее как обычно нужно обосрать. Только речь в видео была о другом, но нет услышали слово "Россия" - медведи и балалайки - гггГГГггг=)

  • Ипать колотить - почитал я тут. Неужели запад до сих пор думает, что мы все медведи, играющие на балалайке... Ржачно. Россия признает свои ошибки - мы не виноваты, что по ящику Вам показывают только то что выгодно Вашим, западным Правительствам. Пример касаемо Катыньского дела.... По поводу коммунистических поп - ахах - сразу видно люди дальше 92-го о России ничего не слышали - может Вам до сих пор про холодную войну втирают... В общем посмеялся от души...

  • @DarkAtlantis1

    To help Israel, of course. Medvedev is a Jew. Putin chose him as his successor and he knew what he was doing.

  • In politics, DarkAtlantis1, time means much more, because after some time peaces of a land becomes national for a country. Longer term gives more rights due to integration between 2 parts or (as in the case with Serbia) it means that one nation lives on their own historic land, if terms are about centuries or even thousands of years. I don't get fully, what do you want to say about israel? I can't see the connection.

  • @Bullet4True It is your own fault. If Russians are not Stalinists, you need to put the people who committed crimes under Stalin in prison. Many of them are still alive. And the government of Russia needs to officially announce that Stalin was a criminal, and ban any support for Stalin, just like Germany did with Hitler. If you do that, then people will stop calling you anti-human barbarians.

  • @normalais Stalin was found guilty at the Twentieth Congress of the CPSU in 1956. He was charged with crimes and cult of personality of the second half of the 1930 - early 1950's. Stalin monuments were removed from cities, and for a long time in the Soviet Union anthem sounded like music without words, because the lyrics contained the words about Stalin. More recently Medvedev also spoke about the fact that Stalin was a criminal, but you probably don't care

  • @Bullet4True Not enough. If Russia wants to be part of the civilized world they need to admit that Soviet Union occupied other countries and they need to stop protecting war criminals from the Red Army. Simply saying that Stalin was bad and ignoring everything else will not make us see russians as good people.

  • @normalais I and the people who live around me, they are all civilized, they do not need anyone's approval, they not guilty of anything, and nothing anyone should. I agree that it is necessary to condemn criminals like Stalin, but 99% of people has no relation to this, and you have no right to call the russian "anti-human barbarians"

  • @Bullet4True As long as the russian government does not officially admit and condemn the atrocities that happened, and prosecute those who are still alive who committed them, they are anti-human barbarians in our eyes and we have every right to call them that.

  • @normalais Bullshit. You must condemn your war criminals, you have more of them. Also In germany there are many people who had supported Hitler, they live happily, because not prove their personal involvement in the crimes. Soviet Union have no such high crimes like the Nazis, besides Katyn, but case in the Katyn all recognized and condemned, we apologized to the Polish people. We will never forget it and not allow recurrence.

  • @Bullet4True More of them? Like who? People who lived in peace and quiet, did not attack anyone, did not hurt anyone, until their country was attacked by both Nazis and Soviets, and they were forced to defend themselves against occupants?

    We never attacked anybody. Soviets and Nazis did. We never went into another country and started killing their people or sending them to gulags. You did. And we will never forget that.

  • Like who? Like those who are responsible for the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the bombing of Yugoslavia, the command of the troops in Iraq and Afghanistan who covered crimes, torture, CIA and FBI who have secret prisons around the world. None of them were punished for their crimes. This is just the tip of the iceberg. If you want you can bring a lot of examples. I do not see the truth in your words, I see only propaganda.

  • Now tell me who was attacked by the Soviet Union? Who suffered from the Soviet soldiers on the scale that you compare them to Nazis? About what torture, murders etc. you tell? You brought up by Hollywood

  • @normalais Typical indicator of nonsense is that you accuse not politicians, you accuse all russians. I'm not anti-American or anti-anybody, I'm anti bastard.

  • @Bullet4True I don't accuse all Russians. I have russian friends, very nice people. But as long as the official policy of Russia is what it is, and Russian people are not demanding the change, we might as well accuse all Russians. If Russian people are against it (and I know many are) they need to stand up and speak out against it. Instead of falling in line with the anti-human Kremlin propaganda for nationalistic reasons.

  • @normalais In Russia nobody listens to the Kremlin propaganda. Everyone understands that this is propaganda, unlike the Americans who believe TV. Most people do not like the government and treat it with cynicism, always has been. I don't understand you are talking about revolution or what? :))) Why was not the revolution in the U.S. when everyone hated Bush? :))

  • @Bullet4True Not true, Putin wants to rebuild Russia with nationalist propaganda, which is why he pretends USSR did not occupy anyone. And almost all Russians fall in line with that propaganda.

    But I agree that many, too many, Americans are really stupid and fall for the propaganda also. In American it is about 40% of the population, in Russia it is more.

  • @normalais Putin and nationalism have nothing in common, the nationalists hate Putin. No need to tell me about Russia, you yourself among these 40% :)

  • @Bullet4True normalais is right. There are many Americans who are slaves to the thoughts and ideas of media figures, but they are still outnumbered by skeptical and free-thinking people.

  • @porsche911sbs Maybe, but everything said about Russia was only propaganda. Of all the Americans who write comments on YouTube (example), i think only 5% know about the real situation in Russia.

  • @Bullet4True Certainly. Even I don't know that much about contemporary Russia. 90% of all news on American television concerning Russia is during the Olympics, so you really have to go out of your way to get information on Russian politics.

    I just assume Russia's just like the United States. The governments do some bad things sometimes and the media can be biased and self-righteous at times, but generally the majority of people are good.

  • @porsche911sbs You are absolutely right. Peace, man :)

  • @Bullet4True How can I be among the 40% if I believe the US government are criminals who have turned USA into a corporate dictatorship? If I believe that it means the propaganda is not working on me.

    Fascists hate Putin, but Putin is rebuilding russia with national pride. And the only thing you guys can be proud about is winning together with USA against Nazis. So Putin has been concentrating on that. But admitting that USSR occupied countries back then would hurt his propaganda

  • @normalais Your knowledge of Russia said that propaganda works on you. I don't like the policy really and I'm tired of writing comments. Peace, dude :))

  • @Bullet4True

    скажи мне с кем ты споришь- и я скажу, кто ты.

    он даже не латыш, он американец.))))))))))

  • @normalais Сталина  уже давно у нас обвинили, недавно и наш Президент говорил по этому поводу. Вот заладил про Сталина. Вы там все никак книжку про холодную войну не можете дочитать? Ахахах...

  • @normalais Уже официально и при чем давно Сталина и его режим обвинили в России, в том числе высказывался и наш Президент. Аууууу - на дворе 2010 г. - скоро 2011... Чего Вам там втирают.

  • @serbumer Nope. I know what Medvedev said. It was nice to hear, but not enough. Too many people still praise Stalin in Russia, and there are history books in Russian schools which teach russian kids that Stalin was a great leader. And let's not forget all the "patriots" who run around with pictures of Stalin every may 9.

  • @normalais

    блять,слов нет.

    ты живешь на другом континенте. что ты можешь знать о России)))

    все твои источники знаний о нас- полное говно, но ты все никак не захлопнешь свою пасть, и продолжаешь демонстрировать достоверность существующих стереотипов об американцах.

  • @Letyaga1 Я знаю очень много о России сука. И я не живу на другом континенте.

  • @normalais Интересно, откуда Вы?

  • @normalais

    так ты, шиза, повсюду и везде?

    это объясняет, почему от своего имени ты пишешь "we".

    не обольщайся, ты -представитель племени задротов, для которых псевдополитическая активность компенсирует лузерство в реале.

  • и можешь отнести это к своей национальности(гражданству)

  • @Letyaga1 Да, везде:)) Я такой лузер который зарабатывает много денег в России.

  • @normalais

    это несчастливое обстоятельство только подчеркивает нездоровую толерантность нашего государства.

  • @Letyaga1 Ну что поделаешь:)) I really don't dislike Russia. Most Russian people are very nice and Russia has made a lot of progress in the last decade. But...If you really want the rest of the world to respect you fully, you need to own up to EVERYTHING that happened and admit Soviet Union occupied countries, apologize for it, and promise it will never happen again. As soon as you do that me and most people in the world will love Russia. Понимаете?

  • @normalais

    ага, как Германия? обойдетесь.

    нам есть что терять. "любовь" европейцев не стоит потери самоуважения.

  • @Letyaga1 Self respect? You would respect yourself more if you were honest with yourself and others. Soviets occupied countries and committed a lot of atrocities. Be honest about it. Not just so Europe loves you, but so your children can live in a better country.

  • @normalais

    перестань троллить, наконец. я не вижу покаянных воплей от мелкобритании, а они действительно немало народу уморили. и ничего, уважаемая страна.

    нам нужны нормальные торговые отношения с европейскими и остальными странами, и больше ничего, но некоторые могут предложить только "любовь", вот и накручивают цену этому скоропортящемуся товару.

  • @Letyaga1 You're not gonna have normal economic realitions if people see you as a totalitarian regime. Britain has long owned up to what they did in Africa, India and everywhere else.

  • @normalais

    ну, как бы тебе объяснить- ты же зарабатываешь деньги в тоталитарной России, не брезгуешь...

    так и в политике- для своих граждан западные страны пытаются встать в позу поборников Демократии, но как только запахнет крупными сделками с Россией или Китаем,все это оказывается дешевым торгом. кризис животворящий еще поубавит лицемерия.

    а вообще, Сталина Хрущев осудил, просрав отношения с Китаем. за Катынь извинялись тоже, а Прибалтика сама в состав СССР вошла, у нас и документы есть)

  • @Letyaga1 How many people have been prosecuted and put in prison for committing crimes against humanity in CCCP? And Baltic States did not join CCCP. Their governments were overthrown, puppet governments were put in place, and they joined CCCP against the will of the people. Meaning, they were occupied.

  • @normalais это ничего не meaning. есть документы с подписями должностных лиц, а что там было 70 лет назад- бог ведает.там история каждые пару десятков лет меняется, никаких извинений не напасешься. и еще, говорят, у вас там евреев били.

  • @Letyaga1 Who signed the documents? Democratically elected government or a communist puppet regime installed with force by CCCP? This argument is where you lose all credibility. Baltic States were sovereign independent countries in 1939 and in 1940 they were clearly occupied.

  • @normalais

    мне наплевать)

    собственно, Прибалтика меня, как и большинство россиян, мало волнует.

    ине интересны движения старой Европы, Китая и США. эти страны могут оказать влияние на будущее моей страны, они реалисты, и готовы к сотрудничеству.

    страны, которые Запад пользовал в попытке надавить на Россию, больше не востребованы. в утешение им осталась легенда о маленьких, но гордых народах, задавленных деспотичным голиафом. романтика!

  • @Letyaga1 My point is- stop behaving like an empire and stop defending your historical empirical deeds. Once Russia does that, it will prosper. Just look at western europe, as soon as they abandoned their empirical ambitions they reached the highest quality of life humans have ever seen.

  • @normalais мой ответ- просто прекратите поощрять свою паранойю, и начните строить свою собственную, независимую политику. за фальшивые стигматы нынче не подают.

  • @normalais

    No, first of all it was mostly because of the Marshall plan, meaning government promotion of ecnomonics. England still engages in financial empirialism just in a different form. Just because you want be powerful doesn't mean you're "imperial."

  • has the chernobyl nuclear disaster radiation mess unleashed by russian stalinists on ukraine and belarus ever been cleaned up? will russia pay $ for reparations?

  • @m60a3ttsmilwaukee It was the Soviet Union, not Russia. Chernobyl is in Ukraine, why Russia has to pay?

  • white caucasian people should get along and not go to war with other white people!...belarus is not a n.a.t.o. country russia today can't blame america for this problem!...if a war? lets see how bad russia's t-90s tanks are vs. belarus t-80? / @ milwaukee

  • @m60a3ttsmilwaukee We not caucasian, btw caucasian (Kavkaz) not white people (Despite transfer in English), and Russia will never war with Belarus, it is impossible

  • my english sux becouse google translater sux :)

  • Хули этот усач там вякаем!! Его страна в подмётки России не годится!!!! РОССИЯ ВПЕРЁД!

  • President Medvedev is a STUPID BASTARD !!!

  • Russia commited the genocide of Georgians in Abkhazia and you have to pay for all your crimes.Every body knows that small Georgia with 4 millions population and small army can't start the war with Russia. But you just love to LIE on Putin's TV - Russian Today! Shame on you!! Russia just can't to have normally realtionship with the neighbours(Ukraine, Georgia, Estonia, Latvia, Litva and Belarus). Russia has problems with all these countries because russian imperialism's going to destroy all us !

  • @mwowner12 I suppose this was addressed to normalais, right?

  • Do you see U.S. news organizations running stories about Canada's anti-American rhetoric? No, because nobody cares. Russia has an inferiority complex fueled by myths about it's greatness that it can't possibly live up to. So Russia barks loudly to defend a lie it perpetuates itself. Russia tries to sell the idea that the former Soviet space is harmonious and welcomes Moscow as its center - which is Russian arrogance that will lead to more invasions, killings and stagnation for the region.

  • american policy split up the countries around russia, encourage nationalism, indebt the countries, corporatise them, and control them. better to be controlled by russian govt than wall street bank trust me. look at uk imploding very quickly.

  • Belarus should join the Russian Federation soon as an autonomous republic like Tatarstan. Not only will it be good for them but it will also provide both countries the needed security in military and economy they need.

  • @thegreendestiny Right, so russia wants to occupy Belarus. And that is supposed to be good for Belarus?

  • @normalais Russia will never occupy its own. Belarus to Russia is like Austria of Germany, one nation in two countries. So it is only in the interest of both to be united under one country.

  • @thegreendestiny Not quite, Belarus has its own language, but I agree that we may assume one nation, a lot of relatives living on both sides (i think France and Belgium better for example).By the way it was supposed to be only economic union with a common currency, something like the EU

  • @Bullet4True France to Wallonia you mean. Please give due respect to Flanders.

  • @thegreendestiny Of course I respect. I just gave an example of people and language, I did not consider their relationship

  • >Belarus has its own language

    It's artificial "language" which was created to split up united russian ethnos and to create new buffer anti-russian state, as well as so called Ukraine, both of which never existed before 1918th. By the way, due to "Belstat" statistics agency 60% of people who recognized themselves as "belorussians" counts russian as native language. A dialect, not more. Right as malorussian variant of rus. language on Ukraine. Agree, situation is close to France and Wallonia.

  • Вот блин, готов повторить то же самое по-русски. Вобщем нет такого языка, максимум диалект. Ссылка на Статистику по переписи в Белоруссии: inoforum. ru/inostrannaya_pressa/belorus­ov_stalo_bolshe_no_oni_rusific­iruyutsya/

    Ага, 60% "бяларусаф" шпрехают по-русски, оставаясь "билорусами"! Ну не шутка ли. :-) Это их собственные данные, "батькины" такскать, без малейшей примеси "кремлёвской пропаганды".

  • @Nitrorus Может оно и так, но пусть они сами про это говорят, а то разжигатели розни за это зацепятся. И зря ты каверкаешь слово белорусы. Я кстати пока что анти-русских белорусов не встречал, даже на ютубе, слышал что есть такие но не видел, а вот каналов всяких бендеровцев с украины полно.

  • >а то разжигатели розни за это зацепятся.

    Да наздоровье, раз ума "хватает". Ответим и им. Коверкаю не просто так, а для различения такскать "этнических" бяларусав и белорусцев, т.е. просто граждан РБ. Пора завязывать с этим цирком. Русские все мы. Просто в своё время не создали учебника с одними правилами речи, вот и маемся. А то так и до "этнических рязанцев" недалеко. К тому же, тот же "украинский" меняют чуть ли не каждый год, хотя создал его чуть больше века назад гражданин Австрии.

  • @Nitrorus Паслухай сябр! Мне вельмі цікава даведацца чы ты ўвогуле калісь быў у Беларусі, бо мне сапраўды здаецца што не. Ты не маеш рацыі і да гетага твае ўвагі не маюць жаднага сенса. А як так, дык да речы трэба паведзяць што паўднёва-афрыканцы так сама размаўляюць па англіску, што не значыць што яны англічане, албо на прыклад мексіканцы ужываюць гішпаньскую мову, але гішпанамі не з'яўлаюцца.

  • Не коверкай русский, татарин! Или давно "Рустам" стало русским именем?

  • @Nitrorus C твоей стороны по просту не прилично делать замечаниe по поводу моего русского. Я могу тебя заверить что мой русский отнюдь не хуже, а может и лучше твоего, не вспоминая что русский это мой 4ты язык.

    На счёт татарина мне придётся тебя огорчить, татары живут в Татарстане, ну и ли где-то там у вас на востоке. А моё имя мне дали мои родители которые много лет проработали в Дубаи. Ну а стало ли Рустам РУССКИМ именем мне на самом деле безразлично, хотя наверно тебя это должно волновать.

  • @normalais

    Belarus was and still is Russia there is NO NEED to "occupy" them!

    Belarus if translated in English means - "White RUSSIA" !

    See the map of tsarist Russia BEFORE the WW1 and October Revolution

    Independence of some of the "Soviet Republics" after the collapse of USSR was

    orchestrated by USA when in facts some parts were part of the tsarist Russia for the CENTURIES !

  • Comment removed

  • @HomoGnosticus Yeah you're 100% right!!! You're right saying "Kosovo was and still is Serbia" ))) Yeah Kosovo was and still (not de facto, but de jure) part of Serbia. And even the 1000 of NATO resolutions can't change it :)

    PS Call someone "troll" without reason is incredible stupid & discourteous, btw

  • @AtollRu

    keep on believing that bullshit

  • @HomoGnosticus Well, 90% of the Humankind (incl. ALL historians) believe in that bullshit. Even the some NATO members haven't recognize the artificial Kosovo "state"

  • @AtollRu

    more like:

    Well, 90% of us crazy orthodox nationalists and so called panslavists (incl. ALL OUR wannabe historians) believe in that bullshit. Even some NATO members (like spanish fascists) have good reasons to not recognize the nation of Kosovo.

  • @HomoGnosticus Bullshit, dude! You wrote bullshit again! )))

    First I'm atheist, and not "crazy orthodox nationalist", second i'm not "so called panslavist" LOL. Your main problem is even YOUR wannabe historians don't deny that Kosovo is part of Serbian heartland. Buy some history book or just google "Serbia Kosovo history", if you to lazy to read books, and then come back, my young ignorant friend )))

    And btw what the hell is "spanish fascists"? In which century you live? )))

  • @AtollRu

    So you are just a russian imperialist. Not a big difference.

  • @HomoGnosticus Wrong again. I'm a Russian patriot. Big difference. And anyway... at least I know History a bit better than some ignorant "fighters against Russian imperialism", isn't it?

  • @AtollRu

    keep on believing that, Mr. Russian Patriot

  • Comment removed

  • @HomoGnosticus You retard? They have good reasons recognize the nation of Косово, becouse this is a good reason for the demands of their own separation

  • @Bullet4True

    Lol that doesn't even make sense.

  • HomoGnosticusб

    my fellow ignorant!

    1. Kosovo is Srbia for 1000 years.

    2. Tesla was serb, though it doesn't matter, because croats and bosnians are the same serbs just with different religion (catholic and muslim). But you didn't know that, right? Let me guess, you're from the US, pendejo. :-)

  • @TeslaGenius According to the pre-WW1 map of Russia, Poland and Finland are a part of Russia too....clearly the people of those countries have another opinion.

  • @RWT683

    ALL European countries have territorial claims

    Finland was 1CENTURY part of Russia before communist revolution

    & never existed as independent country before 1918 but only part of the Sweden and Russia later

    See earlier maps of Russia in 19th century and compare them if you want

    ALL I'm saying is that LEGALLY tsarist Russia had right on

    RE-creation after the fall of the USSR as rightful successor!

    But that was against interests of US & West in general

    Try to look more maps through time

  • @RWT683

    What was really problematic and de facto against

    internationall law and signed treties was unlawful

    recognition of new countries (by the West) that NEVER existed

    before on the territory of sovereign countries!

    Tsarist Russia was sovereign country and recognizing newly created Soviet Republics as sovereign countries

    crated by communists was illegal and morally justifying communist illegal acts!

    The West did the same in Yugoslavia with only objective to dismember and conquer Russia

  • @RWT683

    I can also answer question with another question

    (on creation of countries from"Soviet Republics" that never existed before as independent countries)

    WHY stop there? Why not recognize them ALL and declare them "free"of Russia

    & GRAB that Russian oil&gas?

    That is the lingering sleazy question that has motivated West to SPONSOR

    JIHAD in Caucasus through CIA& MI6

    They were hopping to repeat formula that have collapsed USSR to collapse Russia!

    But unexpectedly antidote PUTIN was there!

  • @TeslaGenius I agree recognizing the ex-Soviet republics served "Western" interests. I also agree an independent Chechnya, etc., would also serve their interests.

    Understand, the "West" is controlled by a global financial elite.

    But are Russian oil & gas today controlled by Russians, or by oligarchs who serve their own (and "Western") interests?

    If you think Russians today would support a monarchy or that monarchy would not be controlled by the world financial elite, I think youre mistaken.

  • Comment removed

  • @RWT683

    1st it is not secret but widely known that firms who control gas&oil exploitation are state owned firms (except TNK-BP that is Russ oligarchs+BP but they don't have much of oil) All oil & gas before exploitation starts is controlled by ministry & protected by laws from foreign exploitation since Putin

    (that explains why is he so hated on the West)

    We all still remember how big tensions were between NEOCON&Bush on one side & Putin on another

    You suggesting that all that was pretending?

  • @RWT683

    You suggesting that Putin & Siloviki are controlled by the West?!

    China also is controlled? I don't think so!

    Well if you don't agree than bring me the argument or proves please!

    If you ask me for Medvedev I wouldn't be sure about him but he is still not more important player than Putin even though President

    What monarchy?!

    I think that "world financial elite" doesn't control "rouge" states+Russia&China

    which explains existence of "War on Terror" that tries to take total control !

  • @TeslaGenius No, I am not saying Putin or China are controlled. However there are still a lot of oligarchs in Russia who own parts of Russia's energy industry that Putin has either allied with or ignored for some reason. Deripaska for example.

    You said earlier Tsartist Russia was the natural successor to to the Soviet Union. That's why I said I don't think Russians would accept a new Tsar, which is a medieval idea and a new Tsar would certainly be a puppet of the world elite.

  • @RWT683

    Now I understand!

    I've talked about Tsarist Russia as geographic term. Country BEFORE "revolution"

    It was logical to re-create that same Russia after the collapse of the USSR

    Of course there was difference between Poland that was occupied by that Russia and countries that have never been independent like Kazakhstan etc.

    And that is the essence of the problem

    I agree that Tsarist Russia if recreated would be under control of the world elite

    Deripaska doesn't do politics (or else!) :))

  • @TeslaGenius Oh you meant only the borders of Tsarist Russia, not the political system...my mistake.

    You're right there is no historical precedent for states like Kazakhstan and Belarus (maybe Ukraine -- debatable). Russia was too weak at the time to do anything. Gorbachev tried to use the army against Latvia and Lithuania but it just made it worse.

    The USSR constitution gave republics the right to secede. Whoever wrote that couldn't have dreamed it would one day be politically possible.

  • Power bloc behind Putin/Medvedev is combination of the Siloviki ex-KGB / FSB, military &military industrial complex, and some extremely wealthy oligarchs "close to the Kremlin"

    Other rich pro-West oligarchs got the money but never succeeded to constitute liberal power-core capable to challenge other bunch

    Specially now cause some escaped with stolen billions to UK & Israel others have lost fortune in the last economic crises

    Others who tried were exploded or imprisoned by Putin :))

  • There is some clear swing in liberal direction when it comes to Medvedev

    and his complete separation from Putin specially regarding Iran (S-300 & sanctions)

    Time will show what that really is

    Probably soon cause next year is pre-election year

  • I like Putin because he seems to be opposing the global elite. Most of them are Jews and they run the financial system and media in the US and Western Europe. This is why Americans have to die in middle east wars...to serve Israel. It took guts to take on the ones in Russia that wanted to control that country.

    I usually go by the rule that whoever the US media hates must be doing something right. :-)

  • >According to the pre-WW1 map of Russia, Poland and Finland are a part of Russia too...

    That's why TG said "for centuries". By the way not all Poland was in Russia. Bigger part was in Austria and Prussia (later Germany). Both polish and finnish lands were a part of Russia not so long time, not even centuries. Finland -- since the end of 18th century, part of Poland -- also since that time til 1918th. ~150 years maximum.

  • @TeslaGenius Russian moran!!!

    Belarus if translated to English means White Rutheria (White Rus) if you want.

    See modern EUROPEAN map idiot ohhhh Belarus is not Russian surprise, surprice hahaha

  • @RustamMinsk спорить с тобой не охота, но друг, White Rutheria это и есть White Russia, википедия в помощь.

  • @Bullet4True Со мной не надо споріть Rutheria это Русь, Russia это Россія. К твоему сведенію Русь это средневековое государство восточных славян а не Россіян, но канечно в Россіі думают іначе і меня это не удевляет.

  • @RustamMinsk Россия имеет происхождения от слова Русь, правильно? Ну и чего ты споришь тогда.

  • @Bullet4True Беларусь имеет происхождения от слова Русь, правильно? Не надо мне внушать что Беларусь имеет проихождение от России.

  • @RustamMinsk ты и сам про это в скобках написал, или ты думаешь Rus как то по другому расшифровывается? :) он собственно про это же и сказал

  • @Bullet4True Я напісал Русь в скобках потому что многіе россіяне не знают что значіт Rutheria

    Русь это не только Россія а скорее наоборот совсем не Россія, мне кажется это очевідным.

  • @RustamMinsk Да, Русь это не именно Россия, а народ, Россия лишь получила названия от народа, русы в Белоруссии, России, Украине.

  • @Bullet4True Вот в этом я с тобой соглашусь Россия впрочем как и Беларусь получили свои названия от древней Руси. Но не-надо говорить что Беларусь это Белая Россия. На самом деле современная Беларусь и Россия имеют мало общего.

    России надо уважать своих соседей так как и Беларуси, хотя трудно говорить об уважению когда твой сосед все нарадит тебя оккупировать и относится к тебе как к своей губернии.

  • @RustamMinsk Я уважаю Белорусов, и признаю суверенитет Белоруссии, и все нормальные люди в России тоже. Никто никого оккупировать и не думает, среди людей и мыслей таких не возникает, это политики чего то всё мутят, раз такие близкие связи они в любом случае отталкиваются от экономических интересов.

  • @Bullet4True Ты знаешь очень хотелось бы в это верить но в реальности всё совсем не так. Когда из уст президента России звучит предложение поделить Беларусь на 7 регионов и присоединить к РФ в братство народов верится как то с трудом.

    Да и к таму-же поведение Россиян приезжавших в Беларусь говорит само за себя.

    Очень жаль но братства у нас не получится максимум добрососедские отношения.

  • @RustamMinsk Медведев говорил такое?? Я не верю, это чушь какая -то. У нас вон тоже пьяные Белорусы со стройки убили мужика у меня во дворе, но я же не равняю теперь всех Белорусов под одну гребенку.

  • @Bullet4True Года два назад Путин сделал Беларуси такое предложение своими ушами слышал. И как это понемать Беларусам.

  • @RustamMinsk Russia always trying to occupy other countries. It is what russia does. You also occupied 25% of georgia.

  • @normalais cool story, bro

  • @normalais What do you mean by "YOU"

  • @RustamMinsk YOU russkies occupied 25% of georgia.

  • @normalais I dont know where you are coming from but my guess is US because you clearly dont know your geography. lol

  • @RustamMinsk Geography? So lemme guess- at some point 300 years ago the entire eurasian part of the world was under russian rule, so you can go around occupying it now?

    What you did to Georgia is called occupation.

  • @normalais wow you must be American

    My name is self-explanatory I am from Minsk LOL

  • @normalais If you know where that is ??? !!!

  • @normalais American, You need to educate yourself, You know nothing about Georgia and the fact that there was a bloody civil war in 1992-1993 between Georgians and non-Georgian ethnic groups in the breakaway regions of Abkhazia and Ossetia, Russia sent peacekeepers to stop the inter-ethnic bloodshed from both sides just as you "Yanks did" in kosovo, If not for Russian intervention the Georgian army would have exterminated the Abkhazi and Alani-south Ossetians in Wrath.

  • @Obasiliasfilosofos You're a lier! Russia started the war in Georgia and every body knows that. Russia in 1990-92 started the ethnic cleansingof Georgians in Abkhazia to separate and occupy this region of Georgia and punish us for the independence from USSR. 500.000 of Georgians can't come back to their homes in Abkhazia because of your russian soldiers.Many Georgian children and women were killed by your soldiers.

  • @GeorgienSS

    I am not Russian, Any slaying of innocence by both parties is a crime against humanity.

    Unlike the Yanks and the Kremlin, I am not here to assign blame, both parties have sinned greatly against the other. Instead of being partial , Like what was done in Yugoslavia, I want fairness and equal consideration for both parties, Our real enemies in this world are not nationalities , Its Corporatocracy and High bourgeoisie imperialism and opportunist groups that shill to them.

  • @GeorgienSS Any educated person knows that you're lying. Enough to ask every person living in South Ossetia or Abkhazia. In Europe, not everyone gets a paycheck from Uncle Sam and know that Georgia was the aggressor. Russia just saved the Russian citizens and peacekeepers in the conflict zone. Russian troops were in place after several hours after the Georgian attack

  • @Obasiliasfilosofos haha what? Who cares what happened in Georgia. How does that give the right to Russia to occupy 25% of their territory? HOW??? OK so let's say Georgian government did something to people in those two regions, now that it is over LEAVE and give the land back to Georgia.

    Chechens also want independence and have been fighting for it. Is Russia giving it to them? No. Why? Because Russia doesn't care about human rights. You only care about occupying other countries

  • @normalais

    You americans are the last people to be barking at other countries when it comes to bombing ,occupying, illegal detention,torture and exploiting other countries! You give billions upon billions to israel and look the other way at its myriad of heinous crimes and let them illegal colonize the occupied territories!! The American media is more bias to Israel then even the Israeli media,When it in comes to omission and white washing! You also ignore Turkey's masacres in Kurdistan!

  • @Obasiliasfilosofos #1 I'm from europe. #2 Americans are definitely not the last people who should be barking about things like this. Americans have never done what soviet union and russia did, and then try to pretend it did not happen.

    You russian scum are the last who should be barking about any bombings. Unlike America, you have no respect for human life, not even your own.

  • @normalais

    As long as you keep defending a "state" and a flag, & Not ideals , You'll be a slave to the system, like everyone else

  • @normalais

    Imperium Americanum is the enemy of Democracy and human decency, Your nation lost its way a long time ago in the late 19th century and has only worsened since , Two party plutocracy is what your form of government actually is... The New Russia is just the return of old pre-1923 Russia which is in due part to your backing of Boris Yeltsin! You Made bed fellows of scum like , Pinochet,Saddam Hussein,Georgios Papadopoulos!
