He’s right about democracy being fragile and needing to be protected. Americans are taking it for granted

I am so proud that this man and a genius live today in my Croatia...love him!

It is so refreshing to listen to somebody with a very high IQ and ability to critically assess complex situation

"The" Ukraine is a misnomer when speaking of Ukraine as a sovereign country. Using "the" before Ukraine is what Putin wants you to do. It implies that Ukraine is a region of Russia, and not a sovereign state in its own right. Please correct and drop this old habit.

Kasparov is a good man. He understands Putin...I wish the collective West would listen.

Gary is such an intelligent man. I love to listen to him when interviewed. I wish the US would listen to people like him and Ben Hodges when it comes to the war in Ukraine and the support necessary to save the innocent lives of Ukrainians.

Makes me very proud he is a Croatian citizen for years now...

Mrs. Diane Brady, respectfully, there is no need to add the world "the" before Ukraine. Ukraine is a country, a nation, not a region, not a territory, it is a sovereign country.

A great man. The planet needs people like him.

A chess genius and a very clever individual. He delivered a blunt message to the West and he is 150% right about it. He is also 150% right about his struggles and the Russian psychopaths ruling a wonderful country.

Dictators lie about the past but tell the truth about their future plans is a great observation.

Much ongoing respect to Kasparov, and his insights. I was also very impressed with how well prepared Diane Brady was for the interview. Not many interviewers could do such a good job. Kudos to Ms. Brady, and Forbes.

we all need politicians more like him.... better as a person... and smart.

He predicted everything 🏆♟

Great interview - Kasparov is a shinning example of the best of the Russian people. Also great job by Diane Brady.

I was a Karpov supporter Gari but everything else regarding you hat down. I know Karpov had the Soviet machinery behind him. I guess if I knew your views back than I would have been your great supporter as I am now . All the best good man!!!!

A great man. Super intelligent. A humanist too. Best chess player that ever lived is only my opinion. The struggles he met. His imagination. Yes-this planet needs people like him, but not enough people are listening what he has been saying for years. Winter is coming is a brilliant book.

This interview must be seen by every politician in civilized countries. He says this simple and painful truth, and he is 100% right.

Garry was the #1 rated chess player for 22yrs starting in 1984. His FIDE chess rank is the 2nd highest ever, behind only Magnus. This guy is a genius.

The price of freedom is eternal vigilance.

Wise words. Wise man.

What a great man! Courageous and bright. Rare combination

A most excellent interview with Garry Kasparov. I found myself agreeing with almost everything that he said. What I found most enlightening was his stance on AI. If I would have guessed I would have thought he would have been AI unfriendly. It shows that he thinks with his intellect and not his feelings. It's refreshing to see a Russian standing up for what is right. I salute you sir.

This : "... democracy does not exist without participation .."

Impressive and spot on. Thanks Garry Casperov for your insight and outspokenness.

Thank you very much! We'd love to hear an exchange between Garry Kasparov and Vlad Vexler.

This man is amazing!

I agree 100% with this Genius.

The greatest political genuine, he predicted everything about Putin long ago

Gary has an astute intuition about opponents in a match. The first high rank Russian to lose to code, in fact.

I love Garry Kasparov. Actually, he should lead Russia.

Gary is the greatest chess player of all time!

What an absolute legend, and, so inspiring just to hear him talking. He is very lucid and is just spitting some truth

What a great man ,Russia needs leaders like him,what’s the chances though ???

I read Kasparov's book five years ago, and he was already warning what might happen. I wish our leaders would start listening, and give Ukraine everything it needs to win. Not drip-feeding. EVERYTHING. NOW.

Kasparov is impressive. I can listen and LEARN from him all day.

It’s alway great to see Gary

Great and courageous man ! what a blessing for us all he is !!

Great interview, I agreed with everything Mr. Kasparov said.

Great interview, fascinating guest and range of subject matter.

Long live Ukraine 🇺🇦

An example of lucidity and courage

Smart and brave guy- and I hear he's pretty good at chess!

Totally agree with Garry. Russia needs people like him in the Kremlin.

Garry Kasparov is absolutely brilliant … a shining light

In Chess, the Goat could be debatable, but in Politics, definitely the GOAT of Chess is Garry Kasparov, for this endless effort of fight against Putin and his evil regime.

When I was a young man I used to smile at the American stories about some crazy tyrants, but everything with Putin came true 😂😂😂

Would he critise US invasions also be as genuine as he is now while criticizing his own country Does America respect Democracy

Kasparov is as great a champion for democracy and human rights as he is in chess. I salute him.

The legend Garry Kasparov himself - always nice to listen to him.

Mr. Kasparov is a very wise man. We should listen to him carefully.

Great interview. Thanks for having him on.

i like that guy talk ,such people are required at the helm of Russia to change things according to me......

Incredible. Genius. Chapeau!

I wish western mainstream media would give this great and wise man a platform.

The sleeper in Putin-analysis is history. Gary nicely picked up on this by likening Russia in 1991 to Germany in 1918. The echoes of the rise of Hitler are also clear to anyone who knows their history. The idea that someone robbed the great power of it's territory and dignity in a moment of weakness, that deep sense of shame and bitterness. The sense of grievance and desire to restore the great power to its rightful place. It's denial of the sovereignty and historical legitimacy of the successor states like Czechoslovakia for Hitler and Ukraine for Putin. The use of native language speakers in territories of the former imperial state was exactly the fact Hitler used to oppress his neighbours, all new democratic states, initially with politics, then militarily. Gary's observation about dictators lying about the past and being honest about the future is spot on. Let's not forget that Putin himself is obsessed by history. This interview deserves a wider audience. A suggestion to Dianne: you interview well Dianne, but better to let Gary speak and use his own (second) language rather than interposing your believed paraphrase of what you think Gary is saying. Your persistent interjections when Gary mentioned stomach missed his point and the repetition almost derailed the interview. Otherwise, great work.

Great person!

Garry Kasparov, you are a fine human being!!!

He can still get a winning position against top GM even toady only to lose in time. That's how good he is.

Brilliant Man!

He is absolutely right about everything,Putin must go #1

Garry is fabulous.

Lets have Kasparov as the next president of Russia! He is highly qualified and perfectly suitable. A man of dignity and international respect. A bridge over troubled water!

As a political analist, Kasparov is an excelent chess player!

Sounds like "Hunger Games" is one of the most insightful fresh comments I've heard about the evil empire.

Slava and victory for Ukraine✌️

This man is great tactician, he read and knows their move

I learn a lot from Gary Kasparovs' interviews.

Brave man.

Respect.

My respect for this man has reached a new level

Kasparov - Respect!!!

I share his perspective on Western persistence in questioning Putin will "back down", etc. It is as if they read nothing of Russian political doctrine and ideology, and hear nothing about Putin and other officials say. We seem to be intentionally self deluded, or stubborn and recalcitrant in our wishful thinking. Frustrating indeed.

He and Khodorkovsky are my go to when checking what goes on presently. He speaks fluent english should be interviewed more often to spread the information. Khodorkovsky needs to publish his video's with english subtitles.

When you're right, you're right... Can you imagine the world with President Kasparov at the helm in the Kremlin? What a vision!

With cost of “black gold” at 15-23 dollars per barrel, the USSR economy collapsed, and the sovok itself collapsed, and the "golden" horde ("russia") budget can only be fulfilled only with oil price at $ 42.4 and higher

It must be terribly painful for Garry Kasparov to see how the leadership in his native Russia has wasted so many young 'Garry Kasprov's'---young guys like him--- who could make something of their lives. The thing that makes me angry about Putin's war---as Chancelor Scholz calls it---is how he has been willing to sacrifice so many, many young Russians by sending them into battle under-equiped and poorly trained. That in itself should be a war crime...

Agreed completely

well spoken

Chess master with exquisite insight into life - which is not a game. 🌹

When I listen to Kasparov I remember why I never had any problems with intelligent people while I spent half of my life locking heads with the dumbar..es of the world who wanted to tell me, how arrogant it is to believe in your own judgement when everybody else is telling you otherwise... I love him (and his unforgettable chessplay!) - and he didn't loose against deep blue, they cheated, he knew it, they knew it. That's why they destroyed the log files immediately after the match...

Very informative. Thank you. I am impressed.

Wonderful person!

I think he was right about AI. When we think of AI we shouldn’t imagine Terminator because, not only is Terminator a piece of fiction, but a piece of fiction written by film producers who had no actual expertise in AI when they wrote it. How could they have any expertise? They wrote it back in 1984. The internet was still in its infancy and AI was a far off pipe dream at that point. My point is that very, very, very rarely are Hollywood films ever actually accurate representations of the concepts they are depicting. Real life Great Whites are not monsters like the shark in Jaws. Dinosaurs probably were not the roaring, ultra-aggressive, killing machines of Jurassic Park, and there’s no reason to assume or even suspect that AI will ever resemble anything like Sky Net.

Respect, Mr. Kasparov

THIS MAN IS TOO SMART FOR REGULAR RUSSIANS.

Great insight!

Gary one ot the Greatest of all time. I could listen to him all day.

An intelligent gentleman

Listen to this man, the world should listen to this man and keep him safe, a true Russian patriot

Ukraine is winning while they are losing their skilled, experienced soldiers. Insane

Problem is these reporters aren't as studied as subjects so interviews aren't as rich as could be but good interview nonetheless. Her closest reference is the movie Hunger Games. She might read some or all those book titles mentioned in this interview on her next holiday.

Good talk, comes across as a decent man.

Amazing person! Great interview!

Fear and interests... and we need not forget, "it's not my land"

Last year in autumn he said that Russia will be kicked out from Ukraine by spring

Great interview!

Mr. Kasparov makes so much sense. Being Russian helps him have good insight into Putler. I loved when he said the dictators lie about what they’ve done, but tell the truth about what they will do.

18:58 it is. Learning never stops.

Great talk. I loved it.
