5:05 pm
lot of games out there are lots of monitoring you can see from the x of my country . so we have of course, there are they, there, are they in front any also, you know, factors, well, the extra videos of talk to us, those, those on the same things, money for me to the system by themselves. you know, leslie responsible for most of the was, you have in our lives and we're told that the african continental pulled themselves together. and to show that we don't get time. so you know, to, to, to a situation where we keep destroying ourselves. destroying the infrastructure is that a large, leaky, not big. the full price is heath of dimension already. i don't think that initial be able to solve. why would it kind of sanctions that, that did that stuff? that gets him right now, that is why i keep you assisting so that they shall sit on the table and talk and go time the country is not economy claimed by that's he's the sure the believe lots
5:06 pm
leave on page. if you look at the identities of the domestic and the schedules, then this is out that the country can also was with these assumptions for every single day, you know, senior development of the strides each aspect of on just to do that aspect to the future. you don't take it, but once you've lost, you can always try, you know, just continue from, from, from, from where the, you know, to pick it up. you can't really take it back once you've la. okay, to another headline, stories today. it's been almost 2 months since the start of kids, country offensive in the ukranian conflict and things haven't been going quite as planned. i made a struggle to make headway the armed forces of ukraine on a slew of government officials in the west or know, changing their train with someone who previously supported kids, military endeavors, losing faith as a member of congress co chair of the congressional you crank august and the son of a ukrainian immigrant who fled. so if you tyranny,
5:07 pm
i will continue to work to support them in their fight for freedom and self determination. this war must and, and with our support and the support of the free world, ukraine will win the fight for the liberty over to any. i'm not sure it's winnable anymore. if there is, how many cherry and moneys know military monies or mail it to remind is without an inspector general, i'm not supporting it while in terms of money, billions of dollars of additional western military 8 have failed to bring it by victories, 40th and after a series of inconclusive assaults, ukraine's objective to reach the key city of nellie total in the south. but it was your region no seems on feasible. the determining factor, appearing to be the quality of russian defenses. whoever keeps disappointment is hardly surprising. as western officials have predicted, similar before they even bigger, but in the 1st week of flight, ukraine incurred major casualties against russia as well. prepared defense is just by having a range of newly acquired western equipment. joined for games conducted by the us,
5:08 pm
british and ukrainian military's anticipated such losses, but invasion keeps accepting the casualties as the costs of bruce and 2 of russia's main defensive line said us, and western officials. while all the supply of lethal weapons continues the flow to key of denmark's defense ministers, things the u. s. has given the green light to deliveries of f. 16 fighter jets to ukraine from copenhagen. um the netherlands after pilot training is completed. that's truth ledges to, to start this month. but the danish ministers that use the program for fruits on till next year. the bell russian president has also waited on the sending of weapons to ukraine, claiming your opinions. citizens are weary of the conflict while their politicians continued to execute commands from across the atlantic. and an interview given to a ukrainian journalist, alexander lucas should go on some mold when the fighting could in are you able to
5:09 pm
play is up in the western europe. the gym is the fringe of those except the bridge . of course, they are under america. they don't need this war anymore. and that's what people say that the boy is not in america, but in our house is the war must be ended. europeans absolutely ready for this, but so far they're executing, come on is like give 15 lipids, but your opinions are reluctant to give military equipments. you see, but it's a french and the american people, the dutch are reluctant to send weapons. so the west can no longer be called a single collective cement. they send these signals to president zelinski zalinski resist, because the main patron behind him is the united states. so europe is already slowly starting to drift. public opinion in leading european countries is very bad in relation to this. more or more people are speaking out against it because they feel the home of this and they want it. the americans have profit taken from this and very encouraging zelinski in this regard. therefore,
5:10 pm
there is no unity between europeans ends, the landscape in terms of continuing the war. and if the americans want to, they will signal to zalinski and he will sit down for negotiations. okay, no pay that will be no um supplies. so that will be, that will determine that and why would americans want to signal this is a landscape put them a stone, you probably won't because they will understand that ukraine will not when it will lose. and if you create lose is ultimately well then the west will be flushed that they. busy they will need to give the signal sit down at the negotiating table at the right moment. let's delve further into the story know with former us marine corps intelligence officers. scott richard scott, you're very welcome. several american officials, including as we just heard there a divide to crane support, a republican congressman of the hardest. they're coming out, they're calling the conflict. no, essentially on winnable for t is what this the change and rhetoric signal to well,
5:11 pm
it's that goes uh, finally uh, the west is accepting reality. uh, ukraine was never going to win this war. the best ukraine could have hoped for was a stalemate, or a slow rolling defeat, where they inflicted enough harm on russia to cause russia to politically withdraw its infuse the as and for continuing this conflict. but the opposite is occurred, the ukraine is suffering horrific casualties. unsustainable casualties, not only in terms of manpower, which is to be honest, sickening. but the, the equipment nato has stripped its arsenals. uh, you know, to the, to the, the beer uh, the bottom of the barrel to gives you crane tanks armored fighting vehicles artillery fan munitions. they don't have enough ammunition and it's not been enough . cranes. counter offensive is failing. they've just committed their strategic
5:12 pm
reserves. there's nothing left after this, and the strategic reserves are going to beat their heads against the brick wall. that is, the russian defense is they will be defeated. and when that happens, the momentum will transfer to russia. it already has in places like beyond rushes, turned out a very successful offense of operation. and one can anticipate that once the training and strategic strategic preserves are depleted rusher will be able to assume that offensive past year across the light. this is the last thing, nato and the west want because it not only creates the image of a russian victory, but the reality of a russian victory it puts you create an even more dire circumstance. um, and so the west is recognizing this and, but now they have the problem. how do you politically accept this reality? when you have said that a russian victory as a strategic defeat for nato, for the united states, and that's just for ukraine. so there's some political maneuvering that has to take
5:13 pm
place to, uh, to, you know, basically translate this, this uh, i opening awareness into, uh, you know, some sort of policy on the ground that can be implemented. if that's the point i actually wanted to raise, because nato secretary general said the block would support ukraine quote, until the end, we've heard that repeatedly, but as more and more in this case, us officials start to fall off the key of bandwagon some what. how does that start going to affect relations going forward between nato alex? well, 1st of all, i understand the, the circumstances in which the young stone bird made that statement. there was, after his deputy said that maybe it's time for ukraine to consider the territorial concessions to russia. that is, given russia in the territory that it currently occupies in exchange for nato membership for getting for a moment. i guess that the entire reason this conflict is being fought is because
5:14 pm
russia refuses to allow ukraine to become a data nation. but be that as it may, we, we see right there, a major departure a by the, the deputy head of a nato talking about territorial concessions. this is, you know, an outgrowth of what happened in just a saudi arabia where there's a wednesday government put down there 10 points that require for peace. none of which are realistic in the west responded saying you're going to have to start making concessions. this is, the reality of this war is not sustainable in europe is already saying we don't have anything left to give you. oh yeah, there's a few f, 16 fighters, they can get out there. they have a survive ability factor of 0 of the the, the bottom line is united states is unwilling to continue to foot. the bill in europe is unwilling to continue to provide the resources you're trained is going to have to eventually accept reality and negotiate terms of conflict, termination that are were aligned with what rush it wants to know what they want.
5:15 pm
right. a talking of the bill, you know, it's, it is worth mentioning that you know, the, the billions in weapons packages it and in, including recently as well, lots gone up. why hasn't that had the impact that key of and the west believes that they would have or, or maybe they didn't, but kid wanted coming in any way on the front line, a look from the training perspective and here is a military professional. i have some sympathy, you know, when this conflict started they had a very highly trained military, a native which spent from 2015 until 2022. you know, training of 500 men every 55 days to nato standards. and uh, what, what your train said is, give us the equipment we need now give it to us upfront, give us the equipment that these well trained troops can use. uh, but that didn't happen. and what we saw is that the ukraine army was depleted of manpower. it was rebuilt by nato depleted rebuild depleted. you can only rebuild so
5:16 pm
many times before. the quality of the manpower is so diminished that it doesn't matter what the quality of the equipment is. we're at that point right now where it doesn't matter what weapon re ukraine receives their army is no longer capable of absorbing this equipment and using this equipment effectively on a modern field of battle. meanwhile, russia has troops that are extraordinary, well trained, extraordinary, well, lead, extraordinarily well equipped the out class, the training in military, in every way, shape and form. you can't reverse this a trajectory. russia is on a trajectory of inevitable victory, and there's nothing the west to do to change this. and that's the reality. the people are suddenly coming to, it doesn't matter about how many more tanks you gave, what kind of tanks you give ukrainian soldier right now is incapable of receiving
5:17 pm
these tags and using these tags effectively on a modern battlefield. scott, much appreciate your take on your time. as always, scott ritter, former us marine corps intelligence officer, live on the program. thanks not to forget you've done this president has last thoughts of the world banks decision to cut all find. busy related to the country following recent of the l g. b t legislation. seeing the west is trying to intimidate his nation. some of these imperialist actors are insufferable. you have to work hard to restrain yourself from exploding with anger . there so shallow. they do not know when and where to stop the world banks cut funding to your guns and infrastructure projects, further provoking, financial hardship in the east african country. as a consequence, kampala was obliged to revise its budget to account for the loss of financing, resulting in the biggest currency, the evaluation in almost 8 years. the world bank said the move was in order to
5:18 pm
prevent discrimination in projects. it funds. however, according to a, you've done an active as such restrictions may insight, a wave of anger against the l g. b t minority in the next 8 carts with great war backlash for the gate community in the country. because you've guidance with ben, blame the community. in fact, our position has always been that 8 gods would effect all your guidance, including the gate community itself. logically, it does not make sense. what we have always preferred. our target and sanctions. you down the sound, t l g b t. laws are widely considered. some of the harshest in the world. same sex relations can be punished by life imprisonment. while the death penalty can be impose for aggravated homo sexuality, which is the fine same sex relations involving h, i. v positive people, which of the world bank funding freeze is not the only consequence that you've done
5:19 pm
that is facing over its defiance stumps. earlier in the us and post travel restrictions on uganda and officials with us president joe biden threatening aid and investment cuts and mid other sections. multiple western countries on un experts have also condemned the most. we heard mixed opinions about the contentious issue from local news. this could be a way not so much to use the hold onto almost a charge of law as a result of the projects, but must be this trouble. uganda is going to highlight with quote unquote the wrong countries. iran and the russians have done that comes survive but to a requirement to build the site to me that's. busy a strain on the society. so the government, this content on the very high you've unemployment rate. it will be a price for a country. you've got the zip codes of that's going to monday or the old hosting business hosting that we have. like our daughter zoom 6th. uh, no, not to have your that does the developing you for that money is under the video

5:21 pm
we have funding had already been completed. also we have funding is ongoing the change planning going for so you have to be the resources to try to bridge the gap . so to getting the full that has spoken to some was they've talked to one or 2 days and a little bit. so then um, think of civilized, yes indeed, the public, the public has been to the effect of it in the system. but i think of the government of the present state where you want to go to the use of making. so that's a decent negative impact is not uh, widespread and lucky, it's not felt by that. you got those. obviously, there's also another evidence which could be on the health 6 the well we the light, the load on the mendocino intermittency is going to be posted to suppliers that's coming to be looked muscled from the west and the these goods. what a study i did try not because of the front of the northbrook. how's it going to
