In the YouTube video titled "⚡️Трамп готує ЕКСТРЕНЕ рішення по Україні. Нова УГОДА з Путіним. РФ на межі ТОТАЛЬНОГО краху," economist Timothy Ash discusses former President Donald Trump's criticism of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and his willingness to make deals with Russia. Trump has criticized Zelenskyy for refusing to make a deal with Russia and has stated that any deal, even a bad one, would be better than the current situation in Ukraine . Ash expresses skepticism about Trump's knowledge of Ukraine and Russia, noting that Trump's statements lack substance and that he appears to be Putin's puppet. The discussion also touches on the financial support the US provides to Ukraine and the potential implications of a Trump victory in the upcoming elections for US support of Ukraine in its fight against Russian aggression. Additionally, the video explores the potential economic consequences of Trump's decision to stop supporting Ukraine financially and militarily, including the impact on European countries and their military needs, as well as the potential reactions from China and other countries. The speaker also discusses the delicate issue of supplying weapons to Ukraine and the potential consequences for global markets if Russia uses nuclear weapons again. Ultimately, the speaker advocates for strengthening sanctions and taking other measures to help Ukraine win the war and ensure its security in the future.

РФ на межі ТОТАЛЬНОГО краху", the speaker discusses the potential economic implications of Donald Trump's decision to stop supporting Ukraine financially and militarily. The speaker notes that the US defense industry has greatly benefited from the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, with approximately 75 billion euros in support going to the US, and around 45 billion euros of that being spent on weapons. The speaker suggests that if Trump were to withdraw support, European countries may turn to other suppliers for their military needs, potentially causing significant economic losses for the US. The speaker also mentions that House Speaker Kevin McCarthy had called for the resignation of the Ukrainian ambassador to the US, Oksana Markarova, which the speaker sees as a move benefiting Putin. The speaker concludes that this situation is a sign of the intense political campaigning leading up to the US elections and Trump's efforts to defend his position in the polls.

РФ на межі ТОТАЛЬНОГО краху", the speaker discusses the delicate issue of supplying weapons to Ukraine and the potential reactions from China and European countries. The speaker notes that Putin had anticipated the war and strengthened Russia's economy and defense, making it resilient to Western sanctions. The speaker also mentions that Saudi Arabia's decision to increase oil production could lead to lower oil prices, which would significantly impact Russia's economy and ability to continue the war in Ukraine. The speaker concludes by stating that more aggressive sanctions against Russia are necessary to reduce its financing of the war and ultimately lower the living standards in Russia. The speaker also mentions that sub-sanctioned regimes like Iran, Iraq, and Venezuela can survive for a long time despite the negative economic consequences of sanctions.

РФ на межі ТОТАЛЬНОГО краху", the speaker discusses the potential economic consequences of Russia's actions in Ukraine for countries like China and India. The speaker believes that China, which has a poor economic relationship with Russia, will pressure Putin to make more complex decisions due to the negative impact of the conflict on their economic cooperation. The speaker also mentions that there is a risk of Russia using nuclear weapons again, which would have significant implications for global markets. The speaker further notes that Ukraine had hoped India would be a mediator in the peace process, but India, along with other countries in the Global South, has been criticized for inconsistent standards in supporting Ukraine. Despite gaining economic benefits from the war, many of these countries have remained neutral, which is disappointing to the speaker. The speaker suggests that the West can influence the situation by imposing secondary sanctions on companies that help Russia evade sanctions in countries like Turkey, Central Asia, and the Persian Gulf. The speaker also mentions the potential for selling weapons to countries that do not support Russia in the war as a lever of influence. Ultimately, the speaker argues that political will is necessary to effectively address the Russian threat and that Ukraine is our best defense against it. The speaker advocates for strengthening sanctions and taking other measures to help Ukraine win the war.

РФ на межі ТОТАЛЬНОГО краху", the speaker discusses the possibility of confiscating frozen Russian assets worth over $600 billion and using them to finance Ukraine's defense and reconstruction. The speaker also expresses optimism about the potential for peaceful negotiations or a ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia, despite the ongoing conflict. The speaker believes that both sides have demonstrated the ability to endure a long war and that a prolonged conflict is not beneficial for Ukraine. The speaker suggests that Ukraine may need to make difficult decisions, such as accepting the loss of Crimea and the Donetsk and Luhansk People's Republics in exchange for long-term security guarantees. The speaker also advocates for Ukraine to become a key partner of NATO, with strategic relations that provide access to advanced technologies and military support to defend against Russian aggression. The speaker acknowledges that there will be opposition to such measures in Europe and the US but argues that the benefits outweigh the risks.

00:25:00 In this section, the speaker emphasizes the importance of ensuring Ukraine's security in the future to allow it to focus on reconstruction. They believe Europe can provide these guarantees, despite potential changes in US leadership. The speaker notes that many European countries, including the UK, understand the threat Russia poses and the crucial role Ukraine plays in stopping it. They express optimism that Europe will continue to support Ukraine, despite some challenges, and suggest that the West must be cautious in its relations with Russia after the conflict ends. The speaker also touches upon the need for a change in Russian leadership and mentality. Timothy Snyder's perspective on the conflict is mentioned, emphasizing that the problem isn't just Putin but also the Russian population's colonial mindset. The speaker concludes by expressing gratitude for the listener's time and support for Ukraine.
