Political scientist: Russia is defending itself

Transcript

00:00I just want to ask you one question. I don't want to have an argument about who started this war.

00:06My question to you, that's not relevant at the moment. What is relevant is how is this war going

00:12to end? And is Vladimir Putin listening to Donald Trump? And does he want peace? Because we do see

00:21the U.S. getting increasingly frustrated and more Russians and more Ukrainians dying. The war is

00:28happening now. Just imagine. Gangsters is coming in your house. They attacking you and your children

00:37and asking, do you want peace? No, you don't want peace. You must do what we want. You must give us

00:45your money. You must give us your children if you want peace. And if not, if you are fighting back

00:52against us, you are aggressive. The same thing is here. Russia is attacked by United States

01:01and other Western government gangsters. They are trying to occupy our country and take our

01:07freedom. We are just fighting back. It is our house occupied by foreign forces. We just want

01:15to be free. We don't want any kind of attacks, annexations or anything like that.
