destroying any ties between... you see how former commanders of us forces in europe, and hodges and breedloveve public advice. they teach little, they will support kiev , and they used to say as much as necessary, now they are already saying as much as possible, this is already such a nuance, reflecting a slight change in the assessment of the situation, well, for god’s sake, it’s theirs, it’s their business, we , well, for example , please, where was it before, findings, this suggests that the west does not want any constructive solution that would take into account the legitimate concerns of the russian federation, but such a destructive policy, which of course headed by the united states, has led to a very deep, well, frankly speaking, degradation of russian-american relations leading to a radical change in security circumstances. well, the same thing happened with the treaty on conventional armed forces in europe with the new start treaty itself, due to the fact that the united states created unacceptable conditions for their implementation; it was the american side, let me remind you of

breedlov, a former f-16 pilot himself, claims that they are integrated into the system. of air defensethese planes will help repel massive russian air attacks. the f-16 is similar to the patriot in that it is more effective when connected to a system with sensors that transmit information to the aircraft's weapons system. the f-16s will make a difference, they will have a significant impact when they will be connected to the synchronized control network, which will help prepare for the launch of the rocket. ukraine. is already doing a good job with the limited amount of capabilities they have, but we need to give them more. however, these fighter jets will be more effective for the protection of the ukrainian army on the front line - says breedlove. multi-target aircraft such as the f-16 are incredibly important because early in the battle they can help establish and establish air superiority over the battlefield. they are able to help build and support against. air defense, and once they've established that air superiority over your troops so they can wage modern maneuver warfare, the

. >> general breedlove, do you have a sense how sofilsphistica the houthis are in terms of the weaponry they have at their disposal? >> well, remember all roads in the middle east lead back to iran. so they are being fed capabilities that are beyond what they have -- would have created in their -- in their country. and this is what this is all about. we have a strategic defensive issue. we have lost what deterrents we had in this area. 130 strikes against our people, 27 against international shipping, one boat being held. and so our deterrence has to be regained. and we've lost the initiative. we are now reactive rather than proactive. and i think this is the first step to begin to be proactive and try to re-establish deterrence much like wes and others just talked about. we have to make iran and all their proxies understand that they will have to pay a cost for the things they're doing. it's a little slow in coming, but now maybe we will begin to regain that initiative and re-establish the deterrence that we once held in this area. >> so general breedlove, in terms of the houthis what

joining us now, retired air force general phillip breedlove, the former nato supreme allied commander in europe. all right. looking at the situation which is getting more and more worr worrisome, how do you think the united states should respond after something like this? this is one in a series of things that has happened, the attacks on u.s. troops. a. >> good morning, and thanks for having men to. one of the problems is the words we're using and retaliating and this is all shooting behind the target. the real question is a policy question. what are we going to get in front of this problem rather than behind it? we know, and it's been said. our president even talked about it yesterday. all roads start in iran, and all roads lead back to iran. of course, iran is denying it, but this is very straightforward, and the decision is, will we change our policy to seize and take the initiative and get in front of this problem rather than sit back and retaliate? 160 attacks. we're behind the problem right now. >> let me ask you something because everyone is talking about whether or not this i

back... the flight range is 500 km against the backdrop of the fact that hodges the day before and breedlovetaurus to ukraine is that very red line, which is awkward to talk about, but as if it is crossed, then we really have nothing to lose. irina kubchenko, sergey bezrukov, alexey kravchenko, nikita kologriv, alexander shirvint, alexander samoilenko, maxim overin, irina pegova, anton shagin, pavel derevyanka. ideas are overflowing, we want to turn the radiator into an art object, there will be a lot of surprises and a lot of work, plans are turning into projects before our eyes, i adore plants, i’m generally a plant maniac, real stone flowers will soon bloom in the living room of our heroes, after dismantling much will become clear, and dreams become reality, no matter how you look at it. let me into your home, big changes, every sunday on rtr, no life, you need to go to the capital, it seems like it exploded at the mine, like at a mine, having missed the face, we look at the weekend. and you burn bridges behind you.

general breedlove, thank you. former nato supreme allied commander joining thus afternoon. thank you, sir. so in a matter of weeks the situation in the middle east has gone from what was perceived by this administration to be a very quiet situation and somewhat peaceful one according to top biden officials to the powder keg that we're now seeing. watch this contrast. >> the middle east region is quieter today than it has been in two decades. >> this is an incredibly volatile time in the middle east. i would argue that we have not seen a situation as dangerous as the one we're facing now across the region since at least 1973. >> martha: with that, we bring in robert o'brien, former national security adviser under president trump. mr. o'brien, good to have you with us. thanks for being here, sir. what do you make of the contrast from the national security adviser that holds the post that you once held, jake sullivan, his assessment and now how dramatically difference it is from the secretary of state, antony blinken? >> well, look, appeasement buys you peace for a short perio

strategic risks, you see how the former commanders of the us armed forces in europe, both hodges and breedlovecently gave public advice to the kiev regime that they need to bomb crimea to a state where it will be impossible to live there, but these are retirees, and as for the current ones. any countries in which the usa is its satellite arranged adventures, just run through , so to speak, mentally, where things have become better, where the very democracy for which this was all started was established, and ukraine, unfortunately, faces the same fate, because relying on the owner, not realizing that the owner thinks only of himself. today we recalled how in april 20022 the west forbade ukraine from signing agreements, just as the west is not interested in any negotiations starting now. we don’t need negotiations then, well, it turned out with zelensky, that in general the world does not produce enough 155 shells to be enough for ukraine, well, okay, here we are producing a lot of things, so sergei kozhigetovich today checked the fulfillment of the state defense order at the pc enterprise in th

so the next we just come on though the commanders of the folks and you were apologise and breedlove remember giving advice, public advice to the k res, seem to bomb the crimea into nothing into submission so that no one can reside the these retard politicians with respect to the next to politicians, we know for sure was that such guidelines and recommendations and advice has been given by, by the british in the context with a k regime, you know, they not less than some live. so they said that they will support k for as long as it takes nowadays most of them and started saying that they will support k for as long as it's possible. they says, let's keep in mind the change reflect seeing the, the changing situation. but you know, this is open to them. well, did you want me to give them instance? fiji is a little subject. definitely we could say a similar turnaround and i've gotten this down for 20. is the american state that was it for as long as that was necessary, or as well for as long as it was possible, the day the drive is running some way that they fulfill some things in the same. same r

the airports, from where the airfields, where their planes take off, again, we talked to philip breedlove, a retired american general, and this is what he said, interestingly, one should not underestimate the existing existing air defense system in ukraine, it can be improved, that is, russia and ukraine are going like this now. they learn from each other and adjust in management in management tactics war, even the same patriots who shoot down daggers, they can after this attack, which was partially successful for russia, they can rearrange algorithms, that is, improve to shoot down missiles. please listen to his direct speech. so. exactly as russia learns and tries to improve, so do we. we learned that armada tanks are not invulnerable. in fact, they performed quite poorly on the battlefield. we learned a lot about them, how to attack and destroy them, even quite simply weapons we have learned a lot about how to deal with russian artillery and their long-range artillery because the war has been going on for a long time. and yes, we learn every day about russian missile systems and how th

in davos, i don’t see any prospects for negotiations. to what the former head of nato in europe, breedloven russia rethinks its position there, hit them all, many times, destroy them piece by piece, but breedlov is simply formulating what those who have not resigned simply do not say out loud, and you need to hear kiev’s reaction , when kuleba assures, ukraine is the first country in the world that is american allies who are fighting and do not ask for american support on the ground. america maintains this. there have never been so many military commissars on the streets of ukrainian cities in odessa, one after another there are raids on public transport, and for the video, i’ll put you in prison for 100 years now, you have no powers, you are for what you... the military is taking away everyone, even the drivers of the buses themselves, and this is transcarpathia, here is the mobilization plan they do it like this, they pushed this man into the trunk , they tried to take the other one, despite the fact that he was with a child, where will you take a human being, where, the child is crying,

general breedlov and our other experts, we all said, the states declare, we will be with ukraine. as much as needed, but at the same time it does not say, but what exactly needs to be done? and so, when you asked a question, and the us president answered: "we want ukraine to win," it was simply monumental. this is a turning point. the president has never said that before. and if our goal is for ukraine to win, this removes all the american hesitation administration, cancels all refusals that existed up to this point regarding the provision of long-range missiles, high-precision strikes. providing planes, if we give it, ukraine will win, so you got the answer from the president that everyone was waiting for, now he needs to repeat it so that jake salvan and other top officials understand that this is a clear goal of the administration. my interlocutors explain that the caution and uncertainty in the rhetoric of the first persons of the united states is a direct reflection of the indecision in the policy towards russia that existed in the washington corridors of power during any admini

former supreme commander. united armed with nato forces in europe, philip breedlove , repeated this idea we give ukraine the opportunity to strike across the entire territory of crimea continuously and accurately, then russia will be forced to reconsider its positions there, let them attack them, strike them without stopping, destroy them in parts ", he told me. so the minister absolutely said that there is something that is constantly pronounced there and something that is written. as for the british, it seems to me that here you are really completely right, not just the british." and the french, yes, it seems to me that the anglo-french historical competition could have found a more worthy use, but no, yes, the french want to repeat the experience of great britain on a security agreement and on arms supplies, not long ago, french defense minister sebastian licarniu said the next thing is that france intends to transfer 50 aass guided bombs to ukraine every month. sm hammer, which can be dropped, including from soviet aircraft, 3,000 artillery shells each and given to them one-time 40 o

. >> trace: this is retired general breedlove. >> going after a capital asset like a ship or the infrastructure for oil which are highly valued by iran, would be a clear message. >> trace: it would be a clear message. i am not sure that message is about to be delivered. >> it's more than a message. you are trying to impose a cost on the iranians. president biden said the goal is not to deter the attacks. it should be. we have to change the objective. and make it happen. >> trace: this poll on biden iran policy. matches with his approval rating. what he does and it could be this kind of prolonged day after day attack against the prox i. i.e. -- proxies it could decide his presidency. >> you have seen the middle east fall apart. it got for dangerous. you have jake sullivan saying the middle east was calm before october 7. it's not calm. after the withdrawal of afghanistans, the terrorists are still this and attacking u.s. forces. >> trace: it's the most volatile since 1938. >> after the iran deal was implemented by the obama administration, it was supposed to moderate the regime. the region got v

also, lavrov just commented on the scandalous statements of hodges and breedlove, both retired generals it’s theirs, it’s their business, please, the third stage as long as necessary , as much as we can, there, well , how much somehow, but for some time, the third stage will begin soon, but as for topics like this delivery, yes, which we are discussing here, in general it should be noted, when was it invented? after all, this should be a gathering of normal, serious guys with enormous potential for economic opportunities that determine, well, the future development of the planet in general, even today it has turned into a real coven, including shamans, but with shamans, really this is not a joke, but this is it was a serious event, how can you trivialize it to something like this? degrees, look. and so on and so forth, well, i just mean that the whole ritual must understand what kind of level this is, big money, apparently, what kind of level this is, but now let’s trample on everything, that now there is peace in the whole world and what’s next, but this is of course amazing, probably
