Comments by "Emir" (@irongron) on "Should Russia keep eastern Ukraine? | Will Israel annexe southern Lebanon? | 200K Qu0026A Part I" video.
I think that second last question you got Paramahansay Yogonanda, which sounded very pro-Russian, speaks volumes to the lack of empathy that gets back to what you said Professor about when it comes to international relations, to put yourself in the heads of the people involved which this Paramahansay Yogonanda, character is incapable of doing. It's easy for him to ask such primitive 19th century nonsense when it's not his 2 Donbas homes, like the one's my wife & I lost in 2014 and recently in Pokrovsk, that will be given away to Russia for free, because he thinks borders should just be redrawn to end a war, because of his simplistic "lines on maps" way of thinking that totally leaves out the people and lives affected.

@JamesKerLindsay Thank you. Indeed, I think your approach to educate these people who ask this kind of question is the right way to go about it, I personally find them irritating for the obvious aforementioned reasons. These same questions comes up commonly all over the world in many countries. Americans who are "anti-American/NATO" for instance. I am not sure where that listener was from maybe the sub-continent or Indonesia where the anti-western sentiment is very prevalent as you mentioned.
