THE END OF THE WAR IN UKRAINE - Jason Smart (UATV)

THE END OF THE WAR! Jaon Jay Smart names the only way to force Russia to collapse from within. https://youtu.be/k1qdoWXpmjA?si=doBQSFqB8sI_kyzl How can Russia be forced to lose without tanks on its border? In this interview, American political strategist and advisor Jason Smart, who was permanently expelled from Russia for supporting the democratic opposition, explains why Ukraine is now the key front in the Kremlin's global war against the West. He shares his experience of living in Kyiv since 2015 and working with post-Soviet countries, and explains why, despite the fatigue of its allies, Ukraine can still prevail – provided that a severe blow is dealt to the Russian economy. We discuss why some European countries (Belgium, Italy, Finland, and others) are delaying decisions on frozen Russian assets, how populism affects support for Ukraine, and why procrastination on sanctions and weapons always plays into Moscow's hands. Smart explains how Russia uses Iran, North Korea, drug cartels, terrorist organisations, and the "grey economy" to wage hybrid warfare around the world – from Latin America to Africa. In the finale, the guest formulates a simple but harsh answer: the fastest way to defeat the Russian regime is to deliberately collapse its economy and create an internal crisis that will cause the system to crumble from within. Watch the interview to the end, write your opinion about the West's strategy in the comments, and don't forget to subscribe to the channel so you don't miss new conversations about the war, sanctions, and the future of Ukraine.
