  1. 10:29 None of this seems to distance it from Europe, it all seems to be about finding new resources and investments, if those resources actually produce yields then the EU will make selling them a lot easier.

  2. Tapani Löfving they were some of our finest soldier yes.

  3. 10:25 The baltic sea is an increadibly delicate system, the Öresund bridge almost didn't bet built because the fear that it may restrict the flow of fresh oxygenated water in from the north sea and thus kill the entire sea, willfullly shutting it of would accomplish that and you'd reduce the baltic sea to a lifeless husk of rotting freshwater, like I said the same thing would likely happen with your doggerland basin but the baltic sea there's no argument, the baltic sea would die.

  4. Probably a better idea really, because the enclosure would become a slowly evaporating pool of Brine otherwise.

  5.  @dw7647  yeah that's what I thought, hence why the negativity toward the EU in this video seems so odd.

  6.  @bapo224  no the same did not happen in Crimea. Crimea led to a massive trade embargo on Russia also the west is shipping loads and loads of war materials essentially for free to Ukraine. We're essentially waging a proxy war in Ukraine.

  7.  @zolikoff  Never going to happen.

  8. Mike Hydropneumatic ww1 was started by Serb paramilitaries assassinating the heir to the Austrian throne. That is an acct of war.

  9. @Physes This won't be fresh water this will de oxygenated brine. Also this concern doesn't come from me but fro many leading environmental groups and scholars.

  10.  @hokkaidosnow6643  You know the spanish colonized the south west right?

  11.  @methnostatemel1913  Except Germany no where near dominates the EU the same way that England dominates the UK.

  12. Miki Seius Shame? The only thing we got shame about when it comes to Finland is leaving them fighting the Soviets alone. Oh and not liberating them during ww1.
    17
  13.  @semajxocliw  No... Making it's own economy stronger will make the entire EU stronger. it will strengthen those banks and courts in the greater context of the world. And the central EU nations can't control the EU they way he seems to suggest.

  14. Maybe they intend t settle the bottom of the ocean. Portugal's new push for Lebensraum.

  15. Alex BS the idea of superiority of that kind doesn't exist until atleast 50 years after Finland was lost to Sweden and the tornedalian Finns who ended up on the Swedish side of the border have never been targeted the way that the sami for an example were. Swedes were never seen as superior the nobles who granted were Swedes saw themselves as superior to all peasants. But a peasent was a peasent. Just as Swedes were settled in Finnland so were Finns settled in Sweden. Usually in the warf industry since the Finns were considered great woodworkers.

  16. Why? Have the Germans ever seriously misstreated you? Relative to the average violence of the times that is.
    15
  17.  @methnostatemel1913  Germany has a christian democrat, that is moderate right wing, government. France too has a centre right government. Only Spain of the ones you mentioned have a leftist party.

  18. Tied together in that the mistakes of the past century must not be repeated.

  19. Alex we wanted to join in ww1. But Norway said that if we attacked Russia they'd attack us. In ww2 we sent loads of volunteers.

  20. 14:45 If Russia attacks Finland it will run headfirst inthe the Nordic mutual defence treaty. Now the Uk also promised to defend Finland I can't see Russia being stupid enough to try to attack Finland while already bogged down in Ukraine. Alos they can't even defeat Ukraine like you pointed out between the nordics and Russia the nordics have air superiority, add the Uk to that and Russia is looking at a very hard fight, not to mention that these countries would likely strike up an alliance with Ukraine. Using their airforces to bolster Ukraine which would plug a major gap in Ukraine's capabilities. Russia would be digging a very deep hole if it did this.

  21. China aren't as strong as they think they are. They can play at strength because the truly powerful are reluctant to antagonize them, but xi is playing in his own back yard like Hitler was when he invaded Czechoslovakia, make no mistake or does not make him capable of conquering the world. The US is a lot better prepared today than they were in 1939 and yet even in ww2 they did win.
    10
  22. I mean before Putin revitialized NATO by invading Ukraine most Europeans thought NATO was a thing of the past.

  23.  @sktglt  Oh yes a premative strike agaisn the US destroying their ability to wage war will certainly keep them out of that conflict you want them to keep out of, it worked so well for the japanese with Pearl Harbour. They say that when Churchill heard the news of Pearl Harbour he opened a bottle at chapagne and proclaimed "We've won the war".

  24.  @pabloaragon3303  what he'll be known for is logging the Amazon causing irreparable damage to this world.

  25. Yes thank you! Blaming the greens is such a dick move. They've been fairly hard on Russia, drawing on their roots in the human rights movement rather than on their roots in the peace movement.

  26. @Physes Ocean currents help move around oxygenated water, your pups won't result in ocean currents. Yes the surface water would be oxygenated by the wind and the waves but the oxygen would not get particularly far down into the lake, it doesn't in ant lakes.

  27. NATO is the north Atlantic treaty organisation of course it is more active in the north Atlantic and it's connected sea the Baltic. This region was supposed to be protected by SEATO. The South East Asia treaty organisation. But it failed a long time ago.

  28.  @methnostatemel1913  what releections? The only ones who did multiple referendums til they got they way were the briexiteers. And No blackmail the tarrifs are a natural result of the UK leaving. it's WTO rules we can't treat any country better than any other unless there is an agreement in place.

  29. The EU is the only economically viable option, but yes the banking problem needs solving, otherwise the EU may fail and we may have to start over.

  30.  @sktglt  The Batlic states are not Russian lands. Russia ceased to exist when the soviet union was created and The Soviet union no longer exists, the modern trate of Russia never included the baltic states. And regardless the land belongs to the people who live there.

  31. They could settle the seafloor.

  32.  @alekseyzorin6282  Oh I d love a free and democratic Russia. I just know it will never happen. Russia needs to fail completely so it can be rebuilt from the ground up.

  33. Putin is my Puppet eh... the germans assimilated the Baltic Prussians. They became German and were eventually given the choice of leaving or dying a the hands of the Soviets.

  34.  @failedtoloadpleasetryagain1862  The last part is something you'd get with the dammed "lake" too. All the fish in the lake would die, and the locks in the dams would no where near be able to handle the amount of traffic needed to keep the coastal ports alive.

  35.  @Maverekt  Nato is trying to avoid ww3.

  36. 18:45 Tactical nuclar strikes that close to St petersburg? I mean if Putin is that keen on risking killing his second largest city. The problem with nukes is that they throw up a ton of radioctive dust which then get collected by winds and ends up all over the place. Meanwhile Finland has plenty of bunkers and tactical nuclear use is not an instant win button for Russia.

  37. 4:30 Yes but airborne diseases are way more likely to become pandemics than diseases that spread by pretty much any other means.

  38. Because the enemy we know is practicing airstrikes against our cities. It's one of those situations where the enemy we don't know couldn't possibly be worse

  39.  @Ken-sn7oc  Compared to a communist state yes very much so. And hello fellow Scandinavian, the difference between us is my family came from the east block. companies lobbying is not nearly the same thing as the government owning the companies.

  40. Mercantilism... they will end up getting left behind if they try to do that.

  41. Let's hope for the sake of the world that you are wrong because Russia will never amount to anything good unless it completely collapses and is rebuilt from the ashes.

  42.  @eksclips3831  The US can easily defend the Philippines. A US carrier battle group can take on most countries entire navies. And the US have ten of them and building an 11th. NATO could take on the entire rest of the world simultaneously and would atleast on paper come out victorious. The U.S. alone spends more than a quarter of the total global defence spending. I'm sorry but the United States overspends so incredulously much on its military that it is beyond comprehension, but the result is that there is no one power or coalition of powers that could ever win a war against them. Their defence spending is the result of rampant paranoia, but for the moment it makes them invulnerable.

  43. He completely ignored ww1 too

  44. The Obelisk the EU have no reason to leave NATO at the moment. As for aligning ourselves with China? Hardly the EU are already more powerful than China. China may try to align itself with us and if that happens well talk about it.

  45. KubusSc7 not Austria Hungary's fault either the Serbian military was in their country training terrorists. That's an act of war. Really the blame for the war in the east is with Russia who mobilized at the German border. In the West yes it is Germany. The UK offered to guarantee French neutrality the Germans went through with the schliefen plan anyway. To some extent I get them they didn't trust the French and British but by being the aggressor they painted themselves into a corner diplomatically.

  46.  @lamalien2276  Trump was way more fond of Putin than Biden is.

  47.  @dbass4973  I don't know where you live but I live inside medium range ballistic missile range from the Russian bases in Kaliningrad. Russia is very much an enemy, no they are the enemy.

  48.  @MaSsiVeGaming1  And yet your statistics are way better than the rest of Europe for drug related injury and death. Numbers don't lie.

  49.  @sktglt  Even if I were to accept that independence for the sake of self determination was illegal and I don't, the USSR ceased to exist in 1991, so the baltic countries cannot be part of the USSR because the USSR hasn't existed in over 30 years. The Russian empire ceased to exist more than 100 years ago, the USSR ceased to exist 30 years ago, and the Baltic countries have never been part of the modern state of Russia. As for Hitler I would remind you that the nazis and for that matter Charles XII of Sweden, another of those failed ivnasions of Russia that you seem so fond of, didn't fail at invading Russia they failed at Invading Ukraine. Exactly what you stand poised to do. Ukraine is the graveyard of the ambitions of so many would be conquerors.

  50.  @sktglt  If anyone doesn't understand internaitonal law here it is you, who seem to think Russia can unilaterally ressurect the USSR, and inheirit some sort of right to it's territory. Yet you would be right about borders being formed by war if the USSR had formally declared war on the Baltic states and been given them as a result of a formal peace treaty, but neither happened. The USSR just moved their troops in and declared that theese idnependent states were no more. No declaration of war and no formal peace treaty. They had no right to do so and it's not within the power of the allies to sign the independence of these states away. That's why the baltic states enver needed the permission of the Soviet union to secceed from the union. Because they were never lawfully part of the union, their were simply occupied by force. And what happened in 1990 was them evicting the 50 year illegal occupation by the USSR.
