In this enlightening video, we go deep into the Russia-Ukraine crisis, discovering stunning truths that have been disguised by mainstream narratives. Renowned military expert and strategist Douglas Macgregor offers a new viewpoint on this intricate geopolitical situation. We’ll go over some of the main points of his argument, such as NATO expansion, Russia’s geopolitical interest in Ukraine, the significance of Ukrainian nationalism, and the impact of Western assistance. The disclosures made by Macgregor cast doubt on accepted wisdom and highlight the necessity of diplomatic solutions and a well-rounded strategy.
For years, the Russia-Ukraine war has been a major worldwide issue, and it is important to comprehend its historical background. We will look at the origins of the war, which can be traced back to the breakup of the Soviet Union in 1991 and Russia’s annexation of Crimea in 2014. Macgregor’s examination will illuminate the ways in which this past has influenced the current situation and the larger geopolitical contest between the US and Russia.
The importance of NATO expansion is one of the main topics covered in this video. Macgregor draws attention to how Russia’s worries about its national security have been heightened by NATO’s unrelenting eastward advance. Understanding the dynamics of the Russia-Ukraine conflict and the reasons behind Russia’s actions requires an understanding of the relevance of NATO expansion.
The strategic significance of Ukraine to Russia is a further important finding of Macgregor’s study. We’ll discuss the historical, cultural, and economic significance of Ukraine, with a focus on Crimea, which is vital to Russia’s naval strategy. According to Macgregor, resolving the situation peacefully requires acknowledging Russia’s justifiable security concerns.
We also talk about Ukrainian nationalism and how it affects the conflict. Macgregor draws attention to the ways in which the emergence of nationalist sentiments in Ukraine has exacerbated internal differences and given rise to separatist movements in the country’s east. This element complicates the dispute and makes reaching a peaceful conclusion difficult.
Additionally, we’ll dive into the influence of Western backing for Ukraine, both financially and militarily. Macgregor contends that the continued conflicts are a result of the empowered Kiev leadership brought about by Western assistance. This viewpoint casts doubt on the mainstream narrative and highlights the need for a more nuanced strategy for Western engagement in the area.
Another important topic covered in this video is how the media shapes public opinions of the conflict. Macgregor emphasises the ways that policymakers and the general public have been swayed by biassed media coverage, which has led to a combative approach towards Russia. In order to promote a greater awareness of the complexity involved, he advocates for more balanced reporting.
In the end, this video emphasises how critical diplomacy is to ending the war between Russia and Ukraine. Macgregor asks for a negotiated settlement that takes into account the interests of all parties concerned and offers insightful information about the complex nature of the situation. We acknowledge the humanitarian cost, the significance of international mediation, and the influence on international security as we examine these startling facts. It is a call to action for a more thoughtful and nuanced handling of this important matter, one in which negotiation is valued above confrontation.

History is a point in time that fits your point of view. Crimea was part of the Ottoman Empire. Much of Ukraine part of the Polish Empire so basically this is a land grab about power for some individuals and a very good reason to have democratically elected leaders and a strict time limit for how long they can serve in office.
Russian propaganda emanating from the American Right,- I just understand it. NATO has always been a defensive alliance, and Russia knows this. They just want to rebuild the Soviet Empire at all costs. Nothing legitimate about Russia's security interests (they are a nuclear power, are they not ?). Eastern Europe has had enough of Russian imperialism,- we ALL have had enough. Time to break it for once and for all.
The seeds were sewn hundreds of years ago.
Nothing overlooked.
False
none of those are russia equipment
A lot of rubles flowing into some colonel's Swizz bank account! And how is a colonel even a strategist?
BTW: the seeds were sewn during the Soviet-induced famine in Western Ukraine (the European part of Ukraine) in the 1930s – and way before that, too.
The Russian assault on Ukraine has been in the works since the early 1990s where Russia, the UN Security Council, and the Western countries persuaded Ukraine to give up its Soviet-era nuclear weapons in return for a guarantee for its borders. Look up "The Budapest Memorandum" and check out article 1 which says: "The Russian Federation, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the United States of America reaffirm their commitment to Ukraine, in accordance with the principles of the Final Act of the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe, to respect the independence and sovereignty and the existing borders of Ukraine;".
Is the USA failing its commitment?

Been over looked or censored 🤔
Crimean Tatars in Crimea, and especially those opposing Crimea's illegal annexation or expressing dissent, are being subjected to numerous patterns of serious violations of human rights, persecution, discrimination, and stigmatisation by the Russian occupying authorities.
"Strange" isn't it. Not a mention of the 40+ CIA biolabs uncovered there, by Russia. "Strange" isn't it. Not one mention of the Ukrainian government, with entrenched Nazis within.
Ukraine is getting their butts kicked
This is bullshit. Every country in NATO asked to be in NATO. Nobody was forced to join. The country has to apply for membership and then be accepted by all members of NATO. NATO isn't aggressively expanding anything. Countries are applying for NATO membership because they are afraid of Russia. And many countries in eastern Europe still remember being under the iron curtain and do not want to go back to that.
blah blah blah – I can listen to McGregor directly instead of having to put up with your interpretation of what he said. I won't waste my time with your channel again
Russia has annexed Russian territory. That can only happen in America…
this is not (only) geopolitical situation… true, it is outwardly; but it is actually ocullt-political situation inwardly… perhaps the final attempt (2020–2030/33) to make a clean sweep of a slavic supstance in the world evolution… an old plan of western lodges & jesuits…
yugoslavia was destroyed at the end of 20th century, now an attempt to annihilate the main slavic country… but putin is tough nut to crack (yu was an easy pray without marshall tito) because heavenly warrior of micha-el supporting him from a russian flag ::)
Russia had access anyway to the black sea without having to steal Crimea…..I like Macgregor but I don't agree with half his points…..Russia only has borders close to others because they stole most of their land earlier ……giving them the usual leeway to do what they want only encourages them to do so. and to keep doing it….Ukrainians remember what the Russians did to them 100 or so years ago when they starved millions to death.
SHOCKING REVELATIONS if you have been watching cnn for 2 years. This is not even the top of the iceberg. Lemme fix the title for you:
Watered down version of thing you already know
Many thanks as always Sirvin your Chanel for showing to US the análisis of Colonel MackGregror the difficut situation in Ukrania if the Peace could be achoevable.
The supoort of the west UE countries and also USA,in arms and economy ,retarding negotiations ,prolonging the warand the increase of Ukrania n élites nationalism and the proxi war, diminishing the chances for Peace and tha dead of human beings and relativos suffering.
Please ,Institutos of Europe,work hard for any agreement!!
The whole argument is grounded on a false premise about Nato.
It does not threaten any country. It’s an alliance for defense, not for aggressive military ventures.
The presented discussion is therefore complete nonsense!
How can you think that the Russians can still trust the West, after Zelensky, Macron and Merkel themselves admitted that they never seriously wanted to respect the Minsk agreements? after Boris Johnson intervened to prevent Zelensky from complying with the Istanbul agreement? and then, should Putin really deal with the US administration? As if that slightly sprightly old man was in charge in Washington and not the supranational financial oligarchy combined with the deep state? I don't think there will be an agreement, there will be a winner and a loser, and a surrender without any conditions.
UN= Under Nazis
NATO = Nazis Against The Others
Afternoon Douglas at this point I agree with you all Blinking is doing is to gather intelligence every where he goes, his mission is not any cease fire.
În realitate UCRAINA a bombardat regiunile cu populație rusă lucru care a dus la așa zisa invazie "neprovocată" a Rusiei în Ucraina care a semnat acorduri în ceea ce privește drepturile cetățenilor de origine rusă dar nu le-a respectat deci ea este singura vinovată pentru acest război .
What about 1931-1932 when Stalin did the HOLODOM,about 7- 10 millions people starving to the Death in Ukraine 🇺🇦 Stalin now PUTIN 😢
In India we already know more points than these. I think this gentleman knows much more but unable to express due to fear.
The Western Media & Govts. have fooled the world for so long & now their people paying the price.
Media Reporters And Army Generals N Study Researchers Are Miffed Against This War .
The Irony Is That They Cant Dive Deep Into Truth About It !!
The only shocking truth is any intellectually honest person believing Douglas MacGregor who on multiple occasions for two years attempts to justify the unjustifiable-Russia's clear violation of international law and multiple agreements with Ukraine, US, UK and EU by invading Ukraine while subsequently committing multiple war crimes since its third invasion in February 2022. MacGregor repeatedly claimed for the past two years that Ukraine's military was so inferior and vastly outnumbered as well as her population it would be defeated within days by Russia's far superior military presented an "existential threat" to Russia. Over the past two years, MacGregor declared the Ukrainian army was out of ammo and military aged males in June 2023. Why would Russia, the second strongest military in the world and stronger than NATO according to MacGregor, need to fight to this day a Ukrainian army so thoroughly defeated and lacking military aged males to fight a war? Could it be what Putin always knew is what MacGregor seems incapable of admitting, that Russia was always the second strongest army in Ukraine as the ongoing stalemate and daily humiliation of the Russian army in Ukraine by a destroyed, according to MacGregor, Ukrainian army?
2:03 Ukraine is not "Caught in the crossfire". Ukraine is being used as a weapon, by the US to attack Russia.
2 minutes in and you still havent gotten to the topic at hand when we all know who the guy is anyways lol
Sorry, this video is wrong. The people of Donbass asked Putin for help against the Ukrainians attacking them. Stop spreading lies.
For those who want to know the truth
NATO: Here's a list of Nazi Germany officers who ran NATO and the UN from 1957 to 1983 and beyond… You read that right….
Adolf Heusinger, Hitler's Chief of Staff, became Chairman of the NATO Military Committee, 1961-1964 Hans Speidel, NATO Commander Central Europe (CCE) 1957-1963 Johann Steinhof, Chairman of the NATO Military Committee, 1971-1974.
Johann von Kleimannsegg – NATO CCE, 1967-1968 Ernst Ferber – NATO CCE, 1973-1975 Karl Schnell – NATO CCE, 1975-1977 Franz Josef Schulze – NATO Council, 1977-1979 Ferdinand von Saenger und Etterlin – NATO CCE, 1979-1983 Waldheim, Kurt – Secretary General of the United Nations (1972-1981), President of Austria, In 1972 he was elected to the post of UN Secretary General, re-elected in 1976.
NATO is the historical and ideological successor to the Third Reich. After the end of World War II, the US and its allies left Nazi criminals and Nazi ideology in Europe to be used as a tool against the USSR.
Former German Nazis and war criminals served in NATO's highest ranks for decades:
Let's suppose no country has a nuclear weapons.
You can only invade Russia IN THE SUMMER and you must reach Moscow and other major cities in a three-month span only. Before and after summer the terrain has too much mud, so you can't move as fast as in the summer. In the winter and in the fall it is too cold and you will be obliterated by an army much more prepared to wage war in the winter. Let's suppose again that you invade Russia from Poland, you will have to move 715.02 mi (1,150.72 km) from Warsaw to Moscow. This is just your first problem.
Your second major problem is that the Russian economy and populations don't end in Moscow. The Russians have a back-up plan, which is the Ural region and Siberia. A large portion of the civil and military industries of Russia is in Siberia. So any invader must have to reach not only Moscow, but the major cities in the Urals and after the Urals: Chelyabinsk, Yekaterinburg, Volvograd and Novosibirsk, mainly.
The distance from Warsaw to Novosibirsk is 2885.70995 mi (4,644.1 km).
For comparison the distance from Lisbon (Portugal's capital located in the Atlantic cost) to Moscow is 2846.43929 mi (4,580.9 km).
This means that you would have to occupy a territory that goes from the coast of the Atlantic Ocean to Moscow, a region where 110 million people live (people extremely accustomed to suffering and war), and even if you manage to win this war In this region, you would still have to face a back-up plan against another 50 million people and a military and civilian industry, smaller but just as advanced. Are you paying attention? No, you won't win in Ukraine. You already lost. You don't recongize it because you are coping.
At least Napoelon and Hitler accepted that they lost.
See why you can't win a war against and occupy Russia? And I have not even mentioned the huge size of Russian population and their extremely high resiliency against wars (after all, Russia has been invaded so many time that Russian people is now built very differently).
There is no way, quite frankly, NATO could win a convetional war against Russia. Btw, obviously, Russia can't occupy Western Europe either.
And he is dead right
Macgregor's warped opinions are always oriented favorably towards Russia. All the killing started with Putin's 'special operation'…read invasion. When Russian troops leave Ukraine, the war stops. In the meantime, Slava Ukraine.
Russia did NOT Attack Ukraine , it was asked for help by the eastern Russian civilians in the Donbass area…after the YAnks attacked Ukraine in 2014 by coup under the evil witch Nueland..
