00:05:34 Putin started a war that got away from him. He was the dog that caught the car.
00:08:14 Putin has been able to cheaply and easily manipulate electoral cycles in the West.
00:11:13 Perception of an existential threat drove the British response in the Second World War.
00:13:11 Authoritarians no longer believe West capable of standing up against their aggression.
00:15:09 North Korean army has army of 1m plus. 5,000 a month is pocket change for them.
00:18:37 Putin knows that a lot of Americans have lost patience with the war in Ukraine.
00:21:52 Most wars are aggregation of past wars’ tactics - 90% the last war and 10% new stuff.
00:28:39 The notion a wonder weapon can change the entire trajectory of the war is a fantasy.
00:30:39 Conventional deterrence has broken down – we need to reinvest thinking about it.
00:35:57 Zelensky understands his country is at threat of being extinguished by Russia.

Ryan McBeth is an influential YouTuber, Author, triathlete, Army veteran and programmer. Ryan makes educational and OSINT videos, that look at the war in Ukraine from a military perspective. Today we’ll be talking about the two side’s strategies in the war, tactics, equipment, morale, and training. ----------CHAPTERS:00:02:06 From a strategic level North Korea finally has something that Russia wants. 00:07:12 I don't know why the US has manufactured these de-escalatory red lines.00:08:56 What if they go nuclear? Putin will be dead. That’s not an outcome he wants.00:11:10 We haven't mentally prepared our populations for fact we're already in WWIII. 00:13:19 Russia is basically a bully that owns a gas station. A mafia run gas station.00:16:53 One of the issues is that there aren't necessarily enough weapons to give. 00:19:54 At some point you need to mobilise – the bodies to pull the triggers of guns. 00:24:53 I’m of opinion that either candidate is going to be ok when it comes to Ukraine.00:27:25 Some are rearming. Poland's going to have largest land army in Europe soon.00:33:35 We may just have more footage of Russian war crimes – executions of POWs. 00:36:06 Russians bombarded with patriotic propaganda and stories of WWII sacrifices. 00:40:02 Even though US supplying weapons we're still collaborating on spaceflight.00:42:29 If it were a real issue, the US would revoke security clearance of Elon Musk. 00:44:22 Artillery would help Ukraine a lot. Long range weapon systems and the F-16.----------SILICON CURTAIN FILM FUNDRAISER - A project to make a documentary film in Ukraine, to raise awareness of Ukraine's struggle and in supporting a team running aid convoys to Ukraine's frontline towns.https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras----------LINKS:https://www.youtube.com/@RyanMcBethProgramming https://www.ryanmcbeth.com/https://ryanmcbeth.substack.com/https://www.instagram.com/therealryanmcbeth/?hl=en----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain----------TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND:Save Ukrainehttps://www.saveukraineua.org/Superhumans - Hospital for war traumashttps://superhumans.com/en/UNBROKEN - Treatment.

This is a conversation with the three esteemed authors of a paper entitled “Russian Sabotage in the Gig-Economy Era”, written by Daniela Richterova, Elena Grossfeld, Magda Long and Patrick Bury. I’m delighted to be joined by three of them today. ----------We are experiencing the most intense era of sabotage since the Second World War in Western countries. Russian operations have now reached unprecedented levels. It seems the main aim is to increase the costs of supporting Ukraine, while at the same time slowing the delivery of military supplies. Russian operations are increasingly organised around ‘gig-economy’ principles. The dangers are mounting from operations that have an element of plausible deniability, that can scale, while causing significant damage and sowing terror. ----------LINKS: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/03071847.2024.2401232 https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/epdf/10.1080/03071847.2024.2401232?needAccess=true https://news.sky.com/story/mi6-and-cia-warn-of-reckless-campaign-of-sabotage-across-europe-being-waged-by-russia-13210838https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cp8e15yr1gwo----------BIOGRAPHIES: Daniela Richterova is Associate Professor in Intelligence Studies at the Department of War Studies, King’s College London.

Konstantin Samoilov is a well-known YouTuber whose channel ‘Inside Russia’ comments insightfully on Russia’s decent into authoritarianism over the last few years. But now, like many others, he’s outside Russia, with no idea of when he can return there. ----------CHAPTERS:00:00:00 Health update from Konstantin and episode introduction. 00:03:36 There's one thing that is mighty in Russia, mightiest in the world, propaganda.00:05:32 Unemployment is not low.

2024-10-22 | Moscow has been using old, underinsured ships to transport oil, and is estimated their capacity has increased by 70% since last year. This is despite a recent crackdown on insurers and shipping companies that are apparently enabling Moscow to circumvent Western sanctions. ----------SILICON CURTAIN FILM FUNDRAISER - A project to make a documentary film in Ukraine, to raise awareness of Ukraine's struggle and in supporting a team running aid convoys to Ukraine's frontline towns.https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras----------Shares in shipbroker Braemar fell after the Financial Times of London release a report on the Russian ‘shadow fleet’, and how it’s using ancient vessels to move oil beyond the reach of western sanctions. The ‘shadow fleet’ is estimated to consist of more than 400 vessels that are moving about 4 million barrels of oil per day. The Financial Times alleged involvement of Braemar, causing its stock to fall 11% in two days. London has long been a global centre of the maritime industry and Braemar, founded in 1982, is one of the industry’s leading brokers. Their business model is to match buyers and sellers of vessels in return for a percentage of the purchase price. It would be scandalous indeed, if they were involved in brokering to build up Russia’s shadow fleet that it props up its war economy and the war machine that is focused on the annihilation of Ukraine. Oil that Russia transports using this fleet generates billions of dollars a year in additional revenue.The FT reported that at least 25 of shadow fleet vessels had been purchased by a British accountant on behalf of Eiger Shipping DMCC, the Dubai-based shipping arm of Lukoil, Russia’s second-largest oil producer. Eiger, it is alleged, financed the acquisitions by paying in advance to charter the vessels. The accountant’s lawyers, and another person, told the FT Braemar was fully aware the vessels were being acquired for, and financed by, Eiger.----------Sources and recommended reading:https://www.ft.com/content/57b85fab-fa44-4881-b7ed-543116920fa7 https://www.ft.com/content/b9dee3f3-c2f8-4aa1-b0d9-d207f815b6e5 https://www.politico.eu/article/revealed-putins-sanctions-busting-shadow-fleet-is-spilling-oil-all-over-the-world/ https://euromaidanpress.com/2024/10/15/ukraines-foreign-minister-calls-on-europe-to-fight-russias-shadow-fleet-of-tankers/ ----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain----------TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND:Save Ukrainehttps://www.saveukraineua.org/Superhumans - Hospital for war traumashttps://superhumans.com/en/UNBROKEN - Treatment.

Edition No59 | 21-10-2024 - Ukraine needs more weapons and seeks security guarantees, are the central points made by Zelensky in his recent visit to Berlin. Additionally, Zelensky is stressing the need to show Moscow that it can’t win the war.~~~~~SILICON CURTAIN FILM FUNDRAISERA project to make a documentary film in Ukraine, to raise awareness of Ukraine's struggle and in supporting a team running aid convoys to Ukraine's frontline towns.https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras~~~~~With the upcoming election in the US, there is a race to get support for a concept of victory and initiate a negotiation for ending the war on favourable terms for Ukraine. But this is also happening at a time when Russian forces are making slow but steady progress along the front lines, and future support for Ukraine is in doubt.Zelenskyy presented his so-called victory plan to the Ukrainian parliament last week and aims to seek a just peace to the war with Russia thanks to military aid and guarantees from its allies. The plan consists of five main points and three secret annexes.“Ukraine's victory plan is a blueprint to strengthen our state and strengthen our positions. To be strong enough to end the war,” Zelenskyy said, adding: "If we start moving with this concrete plan of victory now, we may manage to end the war no later than next year.”The idea is to ensure Ukraine gets iron-clad security guarantees from allies and becomes well armed to prevent Russia from using any pause in the fighting to rearm and then attack again. Linked to this discussion is the urgent request to join NATO, a step that seems to be gaining some traction in the corridors of power within Brussels. But the inherent weaknesses and failures of previous initiatives such as the Minsk Accords and Budapest Memorandums hang over these initiatives like a geopolitical memento mori, a memorial to optimism and delusion. ~~~~~SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain~~~~~NEWS SOURCES: https://www.chathamhouse.org/events/all/special-event/conversation-valerii-zaluzhnyi-ukrainian-ambassador-uk https://euromaidanpress.com/2024/10/16/zelenskyy-unveils-5-point-victory-plan-to-ukrainian-parliament/https://www.politico.eu/article/volodymyr-zelenskyy-presents-his-victory-plan-to-ukraine-parliament-war-vladimir-putin/ https://www.politico.eu/article/nato-nukes-volodymyr-zelenskyy-war-ukraine-aid-russia/~~~~~USEFUL LINKS:Vatnik Souphttps://twitter.com/P_Kallioniemihttp://www.medbat.org.ua/en/ Real World Newshttps://kyivindependent.com/https://www.kyivpost.com/https://english.nv.ua/https://www.themoscowtimes.com/https://meduza.io/enhttps://meduza.io/https://novayagazeta.eu/https://www.newsweek.com/topic/russia...Analysishttps://www.ft.com/russiahttps://www.economist.com/https://www.foreignaffairs.com/https://cepa.org/https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/https://www.theatlantic.com/search/?s...~~~~~TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND:kharpp - Reconstruction project supporting communities in Kharkiv and Przemyslhttps://kharpp.com/Save Ukrainehttps://www.saveukraineua.org/Superhumans - Hospital for war traumashttps://superhumans.com/en/UNBROKEN - Treatment.

Edition No58 | 19-10-2024 - Zelensky has a plan for victory, but the reception of it has been lukewarm to put it mildly. Unimaginative, scathing and myopic is how I would characterise some of the reactions.~~~~~SILICON CURTAIN FILM FUNDRAISERA project to make a documentary film in Ukraine, to raise awareness of Ukraine's struggle and in supporting a team running aid convoys to Ukraine's frontline towns.https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras~~~~~It’s as if our democratically elected official and institutions do not have the will or capacity to deal with hard, complex and slow problems. Problems that require imaginative leadership, commitment and risk are shunned, in favour of quick fixes, sound bites and pretence. Politics is a kind of puppet show, when politicians pretend to be solving problems, and we pretend that the problems are solved, or else were not so important after all. It’s a sort of self-gaslighting mechanism where trust in politics and an individual’s sense of agency progressively erodes with each electoral cycle. This is fine until real, intractable and existential problems arise, and concrete solutions are required. We are at such an inflection point and are collectively failing to recognise that.Zelensky’s peace plan is a challenge to us, to snap out of our catatonic societal stupor, and recognise that real problems are existential for Ukraine’s survival, and ultimately for ours too. His challenge is to make us realise that there are no easy choices left. Ukraine survives or it does not. Both scenarios have far-reaching implications and foist responsibilities on the West. Ukraine’s survival requires a clear victory, followed by two options. NATO membership immediately, or adoption of nuclear weapons. It’s clear, stark and imminent. There is no third option. He does not want to make us uncomfortable but wants to make us think and act. It’s not working though, judging by the reaction to his victory and security proposals. Our democratic institutions are weak and capacity to solve hard problems that require leadership responses (rather than managerially weighted ones) is much reduced compared to the 1940s. ~~~~~SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain~~~~~NEWS SOURCES: https://www.chathamhouse.org/events/all/special-event/conversation-valerii-zaluzhnyi-ukrainian-ambassador-uk https://euromaidanpress.com/2024/10/16/zelenskyy-unveils-5-point-victory-plan-to-ukrainian-parliament/https://www.politico.eu/article/volodymyr-zelenskyy-presents-his-victory-plan-to-ukraine-parliament-war-vladimir-putin/ https://www.politico.eu/article/nato-nukes-volodymyr-zelenskyy-war-ukraine-aid-russia/~~~~~USEFUL LINKS:Vatnik Souphttps://twitter.com/P_Kallioniemihttp://www.medbat.org.ua/en/ Real World Newshttps://kyivindependent.com/https://www.kyivpost.com/https://english.nv.ua/https://www.themoscowtimes.com/https://meduza.io/enhttps://meduza.io/https://novayagazeta.eu/https://www.newsweek.com/topic/russia...~~~~~TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND:kharpp - Reconstruction project supporting communities in Kharkiv and Przemyslhttps://kharpp.com/Save Ukrainehttps://www.saveukraineua.org/Superhumans - Hospital for war traumashttps://superhumans.com/en/UNBROKEN - Treatment.

Edition No57 | 16-10-2024 - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has accused North Korea of sending military personnel to Russia. And judging by the media coverage, this is not seen as a big deal. It may be worth spelling that out. Iranian drones batter Ukrainian cities, killing civilians daily. Approximately half the three million artillery shells Russia uses annually come from North Korea. And now North Korea is sending its own troops to invade European territory. This is not hyperbole, or clickbait. North Korea is literally involved in the invasion of a sovereign European democracy, involved in the slaughter of innocent European civilians, and apparently neither the media nor our esteemed leaders seem to give a rat’s arse about it. Is this the moment where history will judge that Western democracy faltered and failed? ~~~~~SILICON CURTAIN FILM FUNDRAISERA project to make a documentary film in Ukraine, to raise awareness of Ukraine's struggle and in supporting a team running aid convoys to Ukraine's frontline towns.https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras~~~~~Russia has said it signed a treaty with North Korea that provides “strategic cooperation” in all areas. Further it adds for the avoidance of doubt, that the deal with North Korea is ‘unambiguous’. The treaty includes a mutual assistance clause, in which each side committed to help resist external aggression. That’s an interesting commitment, when Russia is struggling to retake its own territories in the Kursk oblast. Putin signed the treaty with North Korea earlier this year but did not explain how it might be put into practice. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov was asked whether the treaty obliged Russia to back North Korea in a conflict and he said the wording of the agreement was “quite unambiguous.” And involves “truly strategic deep cooperation in all areas, including security. ~~~~~SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain~~~~~NEWS SOURCES: https://kyivindependent.com/russia-plans-to-involve-north-korea-in-war-in-ukraine-this-fall-zelensky-says/https://kyivindependent.com/north-korea-has-sent-10-000-soldiers-to-russia-western-source-says/https://euromaidanpress.com/2024/10/15/us-official-north-korean-troops-in-ukraine-would-show-russian-desperation/ https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/us-concerned-by-reports-north-korean-soldiers-fighting-russia-2024-10-15/https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/ukraine-russia-war-updates-map-putin-north-korea-soldiers-b2629954.htmlhttps://kyivindependent.com/thaad/ ~~~~~USEFUL LINKS:Vatnik Souphttps://twitter.com/P_Kallioniemihttp://www.medbat.org.ua/en/ Real World Newshttps://kyivindependent.com/https://www.kyivpost.com/https://english.nv.ua/https://www.themoscowtimes.com/https://meduza.io/enhttps://meduza.io/https://novayagazeta.eu/https://www.newsweek.com/topic/russia...Analysishttps://www.ft.com/russiahttps://www.economist.com/https://www.foreignaffairs.com/https://cepa.org/https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/https://www.theatlantic.com/search/?s...~~~~~TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND:kharpp - Reconstruction project supporting communities in Kharkiv and Przemyslhttps://kharpp.com/Save Ukrainehttps://www.saveukraineua.org/Superhumans - Hospital for war traumashttps://superhumans.com/en/UNBROKEN - Treatment.

We are naturally focused on the war in Ukraine, as the largest such conflict since WWII on the territory of Europe. But this is just the latest manifestation of extreme aggression b Russia, in a pattern of expansion and coercion of its neighbours that goes back centuries. In this interview, Keir Giles explains the outline of future threats / future wars, and whether its possible to deter the Kremlin from returning Europe to a state of perpetual warfare. Is containing a revanchist Russia the best we can hope for, or are there political, social and structural problems that prevent Europe from mounting an adequate defence. Are we in a race against time, where direct conflict with Russia is practically unavoidable, and the stakes higher than we can possibly imagine? ----------Keir Giles has spent his career watching, studying, and explaining Russia. Keir’s work has appeared in a wide range of academic and military publications across Europe and in North America, and he is a regular contributor and commentator on Russian affairs for international print and broadcast media.
