Ukraine War and its Global Impact
Переглядів 59,867
День томуIn this we look at the global impact of the Ukraine War, this covers a lot of ground: international relations, changes in trade routes, sanctions, support for Ukraine and other topics. Additionally, we also look at the Russian perception of the war based on a booklet for Russian soldiers and Putin's speech in February 2023.

It is not possible to "de-escalate" a non-nuclear conflict by responding with a nuclear attack, regardless if its strategic or tactical. It is de-facto a further escalation which can and will increase the chances of a nuclear conflict.
@hydra70 Рік тому
The concept is called "escalate to de-escalate". The theory is that by drastically escalating a conflict, for example with a limited nuclear strike, you scare your enemy into backing down. Thus the overall conflict de-escalates.
@looinrims Рік тому

@lwilton Рік тому
The Russian official view of the Western world is that they are all a bunch of cheese-eating surrender monkeys that want peace at absolutely any cost, and will therefore surrender, or at least give up and go home, at the slightest threat. So they regard atomic escalation as de-escalation, since they figure that nobody would then dare to shoot back, and they all will run home with their tails between their legs. Since the conflict would have stopped, nobody will be shooting, and that is de-escalation. This view is not completely unfounded if you look at Western response to every previous Soviet/Russian aggression against an independent state, or the rhetoric of the US-based anti-Viet Nam war pundits, who morphed into anti-US pundits, and are still around, largely arguing that Russia is on the right side. Recall that, by his own statement, Saddam Hussein's view of the US was formed by watching Hollywood movies. It was not a particularly accurate view, because all of the lawlessness, death, and destruction that occurs constantly on every street corner in your average Hollywood movie isn't a completely accurate representation of the real US experience. Yet almost all Hollywood movies are consistent in their portrayal of US culture. Putin and his cronies most likely haven't visited the US recently. Why should their view of the US (and the whole west) be based on anything except Hollywood movies and their own attitudes of how relationships between States work?

@chrisreynolds6143 Рік тому
It doesn't. The idea is basically "escalate to de-escalate" like in poker if you've been aggressively betting on 2 pair but want to fake a full house, you just get more aggressive like an all-in approach. It's absolutely stupid and outdated as a tactic even before nukes were a doctrine.
@50043211 11 місяців тому
France has a similar doctrine, you use tactical nuke/s, delivered by plane on a strict military installation or large concentration of enemy forces with the absolute minimum of civilian casualties (otherwise you could just nuke them and then GL&HF). This is done in the hope that by using such devastation the other is forced to realise where this conflict would lead too. However Iam not sure if humans work that way as this doctrine hopes we would.

The GDP of China was only $18.321 trillion in 2022, not the $34 trillion stated in the video. India's $3.3 trillion, but its purchasing power parity was approximately $11 trillion. Well I don't know for sure I'm assuming China's GDP was also based on purchasing power parity. The problem with using that number is it is not equivalent. You can't buy microchips or oil or iron ore using PPP.
@MsZeeZed Рік тому
PPP equivalents, do only relate to paying for goods internally. China is very short on raw commodities, but Russia is rich in them. If China buys oil from Russia they are at a PPP (Ural oil price) and a political discount. Also for finished products, when China buys a jet engine off Russia its likely cheaper for them than if a Swedish company buys a British jet engine, but they can afford that higher price more than China could. Allies have tax breaks on military purchases too. Its a rabbit hole, that can’t be covered by this level of analysis. Advise viewing Perun he has this bed time book material covered 😹

An interesting post as usual (thanks). A few question/comments. 1) At 2:45 you mention "Anti-Semitic" nature of Russian response, but the statement used to support this claim does not contain any Anti-Semitic content as far as I can tell (correct me if I am mistaken). 2) The analysis of funding by month in 2022 is unconvincing and is only superficially tied to event on the ground in Ukraine. Much more likely are a host of domestic and international factors within/among the donor countries. In my humble opinion, the biggest criticism of this video is that it ignores (or leaves a small mention at the end) the vast effects on the international trading system. Namely, the strategic growth of BRICS alliance to counter the western weaponization of trade starting with SWIFT banking system. This has implication also for overseeing effectiveness of sanctions themselves as the SWIFT system allows Western states to monitor international trading transactions. Additionally, a growing movement to de-dollarize international trade has been pushed forward which will impact on the dollars value, and hurt the Western economies further if a strong recession evolves. Related effect of the sanctions regime is the severe harm done to the international legal system of multilateral trade. To wit, international commerce law has lost much of its legitimacy and trust, given that property and monetary holding seizures by the West on both the Russian state and individual Russians have been undertaken without a declaration of war against Russia or without sufficient legal basis (laws passed by parliaments) but instead by fiat. In conclusion, the video ignores these economic effects of the Western reaction to the war (regardless of it future outcome) that are likely to be felt for decades into future, mostly likely to the detriment of the West.

@fluffybunny5518 Рік тому
@@Progamermove_2003 For example, the sanction package created by the EU on 25th February was adopted by Switzerland on 28th February. There have been some smaller updates later e.g., on 3rd Aug it adopted the EU sanctions regarding gold. Generalized the CH orientates mostly on what the EU does, which itself has gradually increased the sanctions and didn’t do it in one big swipe. This is often only insufficiently reported on. I think we all often forget that outrage just sells better. To be fair this isn’t because some evil plot and whatnot… journalists simply have to make a living too *shrug*. Not sure which country you are from, but check out the local news from other countries on your country. You would be surprised what kind of reality distortion or omission you will find. Addendum: One thing is imposing sanctions and another is enforcing it. The CH judicial system has a better track record then the publics opinion has of it. For example, just today (30.03) 4 employees of the Gazprombank have been convicted by a CH court for money laundering regarding cash flowing around Putin. Although this case is based on the Panama Paper Leaks from 2016 it has some actuality due to Ukraine. There is a German saying “the mills of justice grind slow but justly”. I’m sure they will find further cases in CH where the recently imposed sanctions were violated. But it will take time to get the culprits punished. This is an issue in most countries. And there are unfortunately bad apples in every basket. Honestly, I would be more suspicious when a government does not find a single case of sanction violation.

Or bureaucratic paperwork may begin to be processed on that date leading to transmittal of aid several months later. FINALLY, in some cases expenses authorized fiscal year 2022 may be rushed to completion by September 30, 2022 if the authorization expires on that date (regarded as an example of “use it or lose it.” Of course another tactic of bureaucratic infighting will result in undue delay of processing approval of expenses or authorizations resulting in pushing acquisitions or payments into the following year.

The US involvment in Ukraine may decrease their total ability to intervene in Taiwan, however: Ukraine has woken the US and NATO from their complacency It has shown that artillery is still important, Western stocks are too low, and procurement is too slow. That is all being fixed. Military ties between the US, NATO, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, and Australia have been strengthened. So the "Special Military Action" in Ukraine has actually primed the Western Allies to react more strongly if China invades Taiwan than they would have before. Previously they had dismissed warnings from Ukraine, Poland, and the Baltic states. That won't happen now in Taiwan. Time isn't on China's side, unless you are talking about more than a decade from now.

While a research by Global Softpower Index 2022 showed that 63% of Brazilians blame russia for it's invasion, and most understand that the goverment is doing too little to help. Both Brazilian presidents during the invasion (Bolsonaro and Lula) stated that russia shouldn't have evolved into violence but the main reason for the war was american expansionism. So currently Brazil tries to positision itself as a mediator, the more neutral of among all of the Global and also the regional powers of the world, such position doesn't come from a desire to be neutral but by a constant struggle of the old political stablishment and the country's population (spearheaded in such topics by the numerous youth).

The Russians have run off with gold & art too, its just that they only took one major city intact, Kherson, which had this kind of loot in significant amount, that wasn’t evacuated. It seems like a major figure in the civil defence plan for Kherson was paid off by the SVR and instead of activating the city’s defence plan he packed up his cash and headed West, confident Ukraine would fall quickly. The Kremlin were likely briefed by the SVR that they had done this in many Ukrainian border cities, hence Putin’s idiotic initial appeal for Ukrainian’s to “peacefully join” the Russian invaders. Those payments vanished, either to the Russian agents, Ukrainian officials that concealed them or turned them over to Ukrainian security services 🤷🏻♀️ The outcome was the arrest of the SVR Ukraine section (about 30 officers), the re-assigning of their work to the FSB and the dismissal of some Ukrainian officials, once the Russian Northern & Kharkiv offensives failed. Read into that what you will, but the Ukrainian acts were also part of major anti-corruption drive by Kyiv, so its speculation based on human nature and levels of corruption each state is dealing (or not dealing) with. Putin of course was planning to run off with the whole Ukrainian economy, which is not small potatoes.

Russia loading up on inventory prior to the war almost certainly had no expectation of the utter destruction of Russian armor that has happened. In other words, that inventory, at least in some respects, is almost certainly inadequate. Further, the armor that has been destroyed so far is heavily weighted to the best of what Russia had. Once the war is over, Russia will need to rebuild substantially the heavy majority of its primary army equipment. Though it still seems to have a couple hundred T-90s that are not (yet) destroyed. There's no question Russia can rebuild, the real issue is rebuild to what level of quality. Obtaining commodity electronics won't be a problem, what will be a problem is specialist parts - e.g. circuitry and sensors that can withstand high-G levels, shock, etc. Look, for instance, at the tanks that Iran and North Korea produce. They produce a lot of tanks, but no one believes such tanks are a match for competent western equipment. Russia will probably be able to produce many tanks, and the average quality will exceed that of Iran and NoKo - but matching western tech will be increasingly difficult. It will also be made more difficult by the fact that the reputation of Russian equipment has taken a huge hit because of this war. If you're India, for instance, why bother with buying Russian? India is on the verge of being able to produce the same quality equipment itself, completely indigenously. In fact, in the not too distant future, you could imagine India being a competitor for Russian arms exports - why not? Further, Russia's manufacturing capacity is limited. If it's going to spend the next 5-10 years rebuilding armor for itself, it won't have a lot of excess capacity to build for anyone else. And that's a serious problem, because in the long run, if Russia doesn't have export customers, it can't afford to keep its weapons programs at world-leading levels, even if it could access the best of technology. It's an economy the size of Italy.
@elmohead Рік тому

Russia's military-industrial complex is much different than in the West. The government essentially owns the weapons manufacturing industry. As a result there is zero profit motive involved and production costs are dirt cheap. The Russians pay wholesale prices for their weapons. And if the Russians need to increase the rate of weapon production per month they simply can do it. Right now they have weapon plants running 24/7 to produce weapons and ammo. Not to mention they have a tight relationship with China and Iran who are supplying them with supplies needed to make weapons - if not actual weapons. The US military is stretched thin. We have military bases all over the world to keep armed and manned. We have an ongoing conflict in Syria. After 20 years of nonstop war no one wants to join the military who has not already served. And our supply of weapons is all but depleted- we left much of it behind in Iraq and Afghanistan. We are giving much of our remaining reserve capacity to Ukraine. Russia will have a much easier time remaining well armed than the USA will for the foreseeable future. We are in crisis mode ourselves.

The India government has its own issues. The current Indian Government is doing a bang up job of preparing their country for Civil War. Namely, they keep enraging the Punjabis every so often. India will need military hardware and the support for the Punjabi people is stronger in the West. That pretty much, despite everything, means that India's government is Pro-Russian by default. But that position will be difficult to maintain as it is clear that the Indian Military desires Western Weapons which are battle harden and proven. To say nothing of being Technologically more advanced than the Russian designs. More than that, there is an increasing disconnect between the Indian Government and the Indian Military in several matters. The general populous of India is also increasingly becoming unhappy, to put it mildly, with the current Government of India. Chances are, if the Indian Government was to suddenly change, we will see India vote to condemn Russia instead of supporting it. That we will have to wait and see.
@adarshsingh7842 Рік тому
Keep dreaming lol. Nobody's enraging the Punjabis. In fact, Sikhs make up for one of the largest groups within the Indian military, and are very well integrated within the Indian society.

This is literally coming from someone that was brought up in Punjab, & has spent over half their life in the same state. Almost my entire circle is Punjabi folks. Militancy has been rejected by our state after a long, pointless insurgency. The dregs of "separatism" reside abroad, and even there are a minority, albeit a loud, obnoxious one.
@adarshsingh7842 Рік тому
As for the latter, Indian government has taken a neutral stance, and cannot afford to take an anti-Russia stance, owing to serious, albeit waning, dependencies on Russian military hardware. We've been getting Western equipment regardless, and the Indian position is well understood by Western governments, if not the civilians that consume whatever bullc--p their media hurls at them. US literally just voted to enhance defence ties with India to help alleviate the dependencies on Russia. Mind you, the Indian government is a democratically elected one, not one I'm a fan of, but a legitimate one still. "Regime change" attempts by haughty, ignorant "powers" will make an Iran our of India, diplomatically speaking, at a time the West desperately needs India to help contain China. And no, whatever government comes to power, India cannot at this point afford to alienate Russia, with two rogue nuclear nations sitting at our borders. So it's best to stop living in whatever fantasy world you've cooked up there.

Hell, give them a 99 year lease. That's what they've been fighting for to begin with in the first place, a place for their navy to operate out of in the Black Sea.

@freetolook3727 Рік тому
Not quite. One of the things the Soviet Union (I mean Russia) gets it's panties all bunched up about is having Black Sea access for it's navy. Ukraine could agree to lease it like other countries lease ports. That doesn't mean Russia owns Crimea just has military access and if there's a problem, then Ukraine would end the lease taking back the port. Just a thought.
@user-cx9nc4pj8w Рік тому
They already fucking had that. If Putin had just invaded Crimea, he probably would've been able to keep it. bonus points because now Ukraine can't join NATO. If they were really fighting for Sevastopol, they're already won. Maybe you haven't seen enough RT to know Ukraine isn't a real country and that the war is about fighting the evil Judeo-western decadent NATO neo-nazis in Ukraine. If it's about Crimea, it makes no sense to escalate. They already had Crimea. Ukraine attacking Crimea would be an escalation that wouldn't be supported. Ukraine attacking Crimea now is justifiable even if they don't intend to take it.

Bernhard, how will mobilisation affect Russia’s war effort? Can Ukraine amass enough troops to hold them off?
@TheRezro Рік тому
Short answer yes. We do know that Ukraine has reserves (despite what paid media claim), when Russia can't effectively equip they current forces. Furthermore despite what Russian propaganda say, mobilization has immense impact on they operations.

Ukraine had more troops than Russia when the conflict started but Russia had the element of surprise. Ukraine was able to use numerical superiority for keason and lyman offensives. Russia's 1st and now continuing mobilization has since stabilized the front and given them the numbers to pin Ukrainian forces down and start slowly start advancing again. Russia's private military groups like wagner have been used to keep the offensive going in the donbass while other units were restored. Then in February the Russian army started advancing in 5 places putting pressure on an looking for a breech in the Ukrainian defenses. With Ukraine's lack of counter attacks and slow withdrawals its safe to say they are starting to get outnumbered and suffer lack of consistent supplies.

1 key thing to know about the Ukraine war, since before the war begun, there was that russian military buildup on the border of Ukraine, and any NATO military analyst knew their purpose, to intervene in Ukraine(because there was a war already going on there but i will get to it in a sec), now since Ukraine is neighbouring NATO, the representatives of NATO could have intervened before the Russians went in and say, "hey guys we know you want to kill each other, but hostilities on our border could lead to dead NATO citizens and that would also drag us into this war, and that would mean WW3"(now we actually got 2 dead civilians in Poland by a ukrainian AA missile, which anyone who know his military stuff knows how hard it is for such a missile to be blow off course, which easily explains how the missile in Poland was a false flag attack by Ukraine, but hey, who am i to challenge the narrative that the media has spent so much time building up), and with the threat of nuclear annihilation looming both sides would have backed down, even if Putin is the crazed bloodthirsty maniac everyone is making him out to be, he would have had no other choice in the face of mutually assured destruction, simply because like any other human being he doesnt want to die, so NATO could have from the very start prevented this war, or at least put an end to it the moment it begun. But NATO didnt do that, they actually let the war play out, but as i mentioned there was a war in Ukraine before the Russians intervened, in case there are still people believing theer was not, Jens Stoltenberg, the representative of NATO said in his interview during the last NATO summit that the war in Ukraine started in 2014 and NATO has been supporting Ukraine since then, so we know for certain that there was a war in Ukraine before the Russian intervention. Now, there is that war going on in Ukraine for around 8 years and it has never made it to single news outlet, literally 99% of europeans had no clue that there was a war going on in the continent, but the day Russia goes in, you see headlines everywhere saying, "WAR IN THE HEART OF EUROPE", is it that hard to see that theres an agenda at work ? and nowhere in that agenda does it say save or help Ukraine, NATO's purpose we are told is to preserve peace in Europe but when war broke out in Ukraine in 2015, NATO didnt try to put an end to it, instead they escelated and kept escalating to the point where they invited Russia in. When it comes to Putin, im no fan either, but NATO is the cancer of the world, and that should be more than obvious by now. Theres nothing constructive about the pot calling the kettle black, but since the start of the conflict thats what we western citizens do, which is so ironic considering that in wars the ones who lose their property and their lives are the ordinary citizens and in my opinion if you re not directly under threat or directly benefiting from the war(news media,weapons contractors and all those bright fellas) you should always no matter what be in favour of peace over war.
@Fighter-ff5xl Рік тому
Appreciate you as Ukranian but maybe you wanted to say that so-called "ukranian AA rocket in Poland" was false-flag attack by Russia? By the way, if even that was Ukraine's rocket it tried to kill russian 'offensive' rocket. And if I remember it correctly there were 2 rockets fell in Poland. So it seems like Ukranian side tried to annihilate russian rocket in the Polish sky. Unfortunately 2 civilians died. But anyway thank you for your support. And it is very good that there are people who try to keep their own mind despite of propaganda.
@lazaroskordas4397 Рік тому
@@Fighter-ff5xl NO, i meant that it was a false flag attack by Ukraine, that killed 2 innocent civilians, and was meant to drag NATO into the war. i dont support the Nazi affiliated Ukrainian regime, and i dont support the strongman of Russia, i support the ordinary civilians who are forced to put up with the hell thats called war, and i firmly support the dissolution of the terrorist organisation named "NATO".

@@mbnovik they didn't call themselves that - it's a top military rating and they were named 2nd again few months ago. Your arguments are shallow - same way we could've laughed at the US army for losing their war in Afghanistan. Should we now place the US army below Taliban? Collapsing economy - that crap I heard from Biden a year ago... yeah, still collapsing. Their budget deficit isn't coming from the reduced income, but from the increased expenses, which were all allocated to the military production. Not to mention that deficit is fully covered by their monetary reserves, not the loan money EU & USA print. They lost the EU market, but are selling it on the asian markets, which then resell it to EU still, with a decent mark up. Seeing their (and others too) latest steps one would say Ukraine is not really their goal, but a tool which they use to revamp the wolrd.
