u. s. scott ritter believes it's a case of perception over reality. the reality is, so it doesn't take a huge stretch of the imagination to paint the defense of murray, a pole, and as of stall plans as heroic and to use this is a rallying cry. and this is a battle perception over reality. you know, the perception of an evacuation implies that there was a negotiation and a kia was able to prevail in the negotiation. to successfully extricate the defenders of mario full trauma, the russian grasp, i think that's why that they're portraying that this way. because to say otherwise, that this was a desperate plea for survival. and that the only reason why the defenders are mario full or alive today is because of the humanitarian nature of, of russia. ukraine can admit this that would be to admit defeat. so ukraine is spinning in a way that makes it look as though ukraine. somehow i won this battle and was able to negotiate the evacuation of the survivors. ok, and let's keep attention on that then. yes, republic, because our t t groups had done off again, ha

u. s. marine corps intelligence officer scott ritter, gave us his take on the surrender of those troops. the reality is and rushes responsibility to get this message across is that they surrendered because they had no choice. if they didn't surrender, they would die. and they are prisoners of war. they're not evacuees or prisoners of war. and if they haven't committed crimes, there's the potential that they could be exchanged for russian prisoners of war where they have committed crimes. they're going to be brought into the russian system of justice, the crimes of the age of regiment, the crimes of these nazis. these ultra nationalists are horrific and there are recorded. there is a monster ball, not speculation. and if this debt is put out there in a way that's, that can be retrieved and absorbed by western audiences. i think that eventually the west is going to have to acknowledge that there are some very bad people in mario. ready operating under the guise of the regiment and horrific crimes were committed against the russian people in russian speaking. people don't bus for 8 years. w

u. s. marine corps intelligence officer, scott ritter, who thinks that nato not russia is in complete disregard for fundamental agreements to preserve stability in europe by not expanding eastward. deputy secretary general is forgotten that it was nato's continuous eastern expansion. up to the borders of russia, that they'll create the conditions for the current conflict. it was nato that has been operating in total disregard of the, of the founding act, not russia. secretary general has forgotten statements made by both by his boss sector general johnstone bird. and other ministers of defense secretaries of defense of benito, which appeared to current conflict between ukraine and russia as an opportunity for nato to inflict a strategic defeat on russia. the deputy secretary general's look in the mirror throwing accusations at russia, which were solely derived from nato's own actions. european economy is going through somewhat of a shock right now, and it doesn't look like that. sharks can in any time soon. all nato has is basically some fancy charts and arrows and lines in words. they don't ha

we got the take of former us marine corps intelligence officer, scott ritter. clearly the u. s. is directly involved. it doesn't mean that you have to have boots on the ground, but involvement in the form of the provision of near real time intelligence information that has an impact on the battlefield is defacto evidence of, of, of u. s. involvement. and then, of course, there's the ongoing provision of weaponry which has been provided to the ukrainian armed forces used in combat against the russian troops. i has caused casualties amongst the russian forces. this is a political game being played by the west. most of this is quitman. is old, obsolete though it appears to work when it arrives in ukraine, but are rapidly break down. so the sickness equipment is next to useless in the sad reality is the vast majority of ukrainian soldiers who will be called upon to man. this equipment will probably become casualties, chose this equipment to sold so bad, and won't function the way it's intended to a potential historical failure that risks, the very unity of the you. that's the warnin
