Tut! That's not an armed rebellion, that's a Russian election.

Really like Jens. He has done a great job and always speaks clearly without double talk. Bravo Mr. Stoltenberg.

The rotational model of sending troops to the eastern flanks is a good idea. It gives each NATO country a share of the burder, and gives its troops good training and experience

'The revolt was an internal Russian matter'. I strongly agree with that statement. A power struggle among various gangster groups in Russia.

This boy like talking unnecessarily, if Russia is weak why do you keep expanding NATO because of being afraid of Russia 🇷🇺, you lies too much

[charleskopano]

Why are you monitoring Russian problems.
Monitor what you support

....Mutiny, was not about ending the war in Ukraine but about how to fight it better. - Gen Sir Patrick Sanders

The show is over ladies! Go to sleep now. 😂

He said that Ukraine has the right to attack Russia for self-defense. Let me remind you that in 2022, before Russia attacked Ukraine, Ukraine threatened Russia with war. ... Why in the case of Russia does it not have the right to attack, but if Ukraine attacks, it has the right to attack?

Putin. Withdraw from Moscow and you can keep Belarus.
Prigozhin. Sweet.
Lukashenko. Wait a minute what?

[gloriaferreyra]

It's Putin' strategy. Now they all are in Bielorrusia, near near Kyiv!!!😂

It's funny watching the Russian bots descending on another DW release, as if we don't have internet access and see right through their lies and copium.

[rouz]

He forgot to talk about what matter for Norway personally though 😅

[jip]

Nuclear fallout does not care for “internal matters”.

[LAVATORR]

Why is he being interviewed in the setting to a Cormac McCarthy novel?

[diazvirdani]

*Russia🇷🇺 still occupied oblast Luhansk, Donetsk, Zaporizhia, Kherson, Crimea.*
Russia must end occupation & keep peace!!

[volt-u]

have the German brigadiers already taught the Lithuanian army how to roll?

[Cotif]

I thought that woman's hair at 2:18 was a thunder bolt

[truetech]

We could talk about the weakness of the human condition, being that violence never really produces afterlives, only stockholm syndrome left to fester.
