41 min • 17 april 2025

The speaker criticizes Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, accusing him of prolonging the war with Russia despite clear signs of Ukrainian losses and missed opportunities for peace since 2022. He questions why Ukrainian families haven’t more strongly opposed the continuation of the war, suggesting fear of repression may be the reason. The speaker also highlights Zelensky’s stated hatred toward Russians and argues that this emotional stance hinders peace efforts.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov is referenced as claiming Zelensky’s hatred and unwillingness to negotiate are major obstacles to ending the war. The speaker supports this, asserting that Ukraine’s military is shrinking and unsustainable, while Russia’s is growing.

Former President Trump is mentioned as viewing the conflict as President Biden’s responsibility and expressing a desire to end it. Trump is portrayed as aiming to improve relations with Russia and focus on long-term strategic concerns like nuclear nonproliferation and global stability, emphasizing the war must eventually end through diplomacy.
