nader: that's a great question.ke it back a bit, it's funny because i think twitter is distracting people from a lot of the real innovation that is happening in social media. imagine if the iphone came out and yet all anyone wanted to talk about was their blackberry. most people don't remember what a blackberry is because it's no longer relevant. right now twitter and centralized social media platforms are blackberry and deso is the iphone. why is that? it is better in every way than centralized social media platforms like twitter. now to go to your question about open sourcing, when you make a post on twitter a corporation owns it. they control who gets to see it and they make all the money off it. all of that is opaque. in contrast, when you make a comment on deso, it stored on the deso blockchain and you own it the same way you own bitcoin. it goes on a public ledger and shows up in hundreds of apps that all have their own approach to moderation, most of which are completely open sourced. you can look into how th

ministers for nato countries are meeting as we meet in brussels, to discuss further support for ukraine. nader was warning, russia is said to intensify. it's offensive in eastern and southern ukraine and the coming weeks. secretary general, you installed births at the war was in a crucial phase, and warned the west to prepare for a protracted war. we have seen no indication that the present putin has so changed his ambition to control the whole of ukraine. and also to rewrite curbing natural order. so we need to be prepared for a long hole. we need to support ukraine, sustain our sanctions, and strengthen our her defenses under our determines that was the nato secretary general and storm burg speaking moments ago and were waiting for him to address the press. along with the u. s. secretary of state's at antony, blinking. any moment now, but in the meantime, as we wait for the press conference to get underway, we want to turn our attention to europe's efforts to push russia, ford to punish rather russia for its war on ukraine. right now you diplomats are debating. new tough sanctions targeting

you said before that the essential believe that russia was pushed into this military operation by nader's continuing encroachments not going to put in hold off the rise this operation. his last visit brought wants to china, and it was very interesting in my visit because there isn't delegation of blue in the morning. they had a full of meetings and they laughed in the evening. and there must have been something very, very important in those personal meetings to justify, you know, travelling such large distances for such a short period of time. do you think the chinese were informed of the russian intentions to launch this operation? i know that there is no way of knowing it, for sure. perhaps only present she in prison, couldn't know that, but what's your intuition on that? now with a right, i mean there were some important talks behind the scenes a i. e, i a to a lot of china issues, and i need an answer whether that time a mission to try. but now i'm very concerned, and that is not a bench with the fact that, you know, a very, very obvious answer is that a complete, a few didn't not aft

but one thing i want to mention here is that a couple of years ago, nader explicitly publicly passed the doctrine of the so called cognitive warfare, which is pretty in previous st terms, laid out what they see as an alternative to kinetic warfare. that as many probation of public opinion trying to sort of shape the views the public using the country to the favor of the political position. and this is exactly what they're doing. you know, they've been investing in that for quite some time. the ukrainians got a lot of help and support and expertise from the west. and ultimately they are banking on the fact that perception is reality. you know, the famous phrase that the americans like to repeat, then i think the russians or the russian leadership at least in banking, on the opposite prime, is the reality sooner or later will reassert itself. and it will, i mean, i've been through that multiple times and i can promise you this story is going to fall apart within the next couple of months if not weeks. ok, actually on a we a wait on that, but thank you for now. i very much for going thr

i'm in a couple of years ago, nader was openly introducing the concept of cognitive warfare, which they see as sort of as an effort, as a strategy of which is being military means by non military means getting the public on site, not just hitting the public on side, but influencing the public opinion, the collective psyche to an extent that they will essentially do be enemies bidding within the country. and that includes, you know, and of course, painting your enemy as absolutely devoid of you know, a channel manager and also calling into question and you know, the, the leaders decisions. if you watch a western coverage of the ukrainian issue, you would think that natives know the i think here at all. i mean, i've been covering this conflict for 12 months now, and you barely see naida ever mentioned that they see the western media still see it as a local conflict within. for lou crane that's tries for democracy and these angry power hungry russia that's wants to global as whole, which you know, both you and i and, you know, pretty much the rest of the world accepts for the it's western

but i think it's been a real attempt to keep nader together to get your opinion union to get over here in the countries, and you're not want to aggravate the united states at this point in time. meanwhile, in the u. k, a new poll has found that approval for the sanctions has plummeted to 36 percent down from 50 percent last month. furthermore, 54 percent of respondents believe the financial situation in the u. k. has deteriorated since the latest wave of sanctions against russia, but comes amid soaring fuel and food prices in europe. as western sanctions hit brushes, transport an energy supply lines. we discussed the effect of anti rushing sanctions with a g kumar, jaw research editor at india today. and political analyst keena who drew and a political analyst at the university of care from mohammed mirandi. i think the europeans under estimated the resilience of the russian economy, which is quite foolish because they should have known from their experience with the rom that sanctions targeting women and children basically are not going to bring him out the sort of change that europea

off the air of all social media, but one thing i wanna mentioned here is that a couple of years ago, nader explicitly publicly passed the doctrine of the so called cognitive warfare, which pretty, in previous st terms, laid out what they see as an alternative to kinetic warfare, that is manipulation of public opinion, trying to sort of shape the views, the public views and the country to the favor of that political position. and this is exactly what they're doing. and you know, they've been investing in that for quite some time the ukrainians got a lot of help and support that expertise from the west and ultimately their banking on the fact that perception is reality. you know, this famous phrase that the americans like to repeat, then i think the russians or the russian leadership at least, is banking on the opposite premise. that reality, sooner or later, will reassert itself. and it will, i mean that this, i've been through that multiple times and i can promise you, this story is going to fall apart within the next couple of months if not weeks worlds apart. host, excellent. a boy who's

but one thing i want to mention here is that a couple of years ago, nader explicitly publicly passed the doctrine of the so called cognitive warfare, which is pretty, a pretty straight terms laid out what they see as an alternative to kinetic warfare . that a manipulation of public opinion trying to sort of shape the views, the public views in the country to the favor of the political position. and this is exactly what they're doing. you know, they've been investing in that for quite some time the ukrainians got a lot of help and support that expertise from the west. and ultimately they are banking.

and what are the real, you know, what are the real character of the european relationship and the nader relationship from your perspective? well, it's an interesting question because 4 months ago when i was in ambassador school, steve, back in northern virginia, i was being told by many of my colleagues that we're not going to be able to work with this center, right government, that this is going to be a difficult process of developing alignments. and what i have found actually is that this crisis has produced alignments on security and also on democracy and values and the economy that are important in terms of the american polish relationship. in other words, just like dialectical behavioral theory where several things can be true at once. we've been very clear with the polls that we stand foursquare with you on your security. and so steve, we have now $10500.00 us troops in poland, all on polish basis. we have patriot missiles staged to protect poland. and our president has been clear that we will protect every square inch of polish territory because it's a member of nato, as it's a m

reporter: nader set up to 15,000 russian soldiers have been killed fighting in ukraine. is there any evidence or indications the russians are reinforcing? sec. kirby: i can't confirm the number, and you know we stay away from providing estimates on the numbers. you know they have taken casualties. both wounded and killed. what i can tell you, lucas, sort of a two-part answer here. one, as we have seen russian forces leave the north and move into belarus and into russia we are beginning to see indications that they are, in fact, working on ways of refitting and resupplying these units, including discussions about how to replace lost troops. some of these units are almost completely devastated, and it is unclear whether they will ever be reformed, or whether they will be combined with other units that are less depleted in manpower, equipment, vehicles. so they are working their way through all of that right now. it remains to be seen how fast they will be able to do it and with what, but we have seen indications that they are looking at their shortages in some of these uni
