“Most of Crimea can be held at risk, as I think logistics nodes, the Kerch Bridge, but also in southern and eastern Ukraine.”
ATACMS from the US will allow Ukraine to target “every square centimetre” of “Russian operational targets”, says Major General Mick Ryan.

Thanks for having an Aussie on, much obliged from us down under! Appreciate his insights on Ukraine, AUKUS and Australia's passiveness in supplying Ukraine (we've done some, but defo could do more). Agreed that democracies are a precious, new thing, that should be defended anywhere in the world, esp in places that are strategically important (like Ukraine, Eastern Europe, Taiwan etc).
Top notch interview. Thank you Times.
Interesting to hear an Australian point of view on these issues. Thank you.
I think Ukraine is in a War Economy unlike any I've seen in my lifetime. Different than anything seen since World War II. It is their single focus. I didn't think any people could be this determined and focused in the present day. I'm extremely impressed and envious of their integrity and clarity of purpose.
Slava Ukraini! 💙💛
So why have you not gone there if you so impressed by Ukrainians ? The last I heard they are refusing orders in Ochertyne and even surrendering. They are refusing to enlist, and the ones abroad don't want to go back. They now know they are going to lose and the US will abandon them after the elections.
I can't believe you people still listen to these clowns 🤣
No question about it! They are very smart people
not really........ salaries are paid with western funds so calling it an economy is incorrect...more like a war social program where the lives of ukrainian men are traded for graft
Ahahahah ..... Russian trolls in the comments are trying to convince us that the bridge is civilian and is not used for military purposes :))))
The only trolls I see 👀 are sex channels trying to link their content
@@robbiekop7 Are they doing weird things with the shovels again?
it is used by civilians. Just in uniform because their real army has lost so much personnel.

The peninsula has been converted into one huge military base. Good luck.
This is excellent truth; I appreciate this kind of reporting. Keep doing it!
Somewhere in the last 1/3 of this he makes some profound remarks about defending democracy. That is often brushed aside, or treated very passively by all of Europe, the US, in fact most of NATO. That's got to stop.
Kate, a very well-conducted interview. I very much appreciate your succinct questions and then your penchant for 'shutting up' and letting your interviewee speak at length. This is the way it's supposed to work. I wish more American interviewers would take your lessons to heart.
Keep supporting Ukraine, you can even donate as an individual to individuals on the ground in Ukraine. This is important too
Some brilliant observations and warnings from your Australian expert. Many thanks.
The Budapest Memorandum gives the US and UK juridiction to military intervene to defend Ukraine. They should act as they promises by treaty to defend UK territory.
The Memorandum was never a treaty
@@mrjerzheel The memorandum included security guarantees in exchange for their nukes being handed over. Ukraine kept their part of the deal but the West has been pathetic and selfish by making them beg for what is their due.
@@mrjerzheel Call it anything you will, the US and UK have a moral if not legal duty to honour their promises.
@@fortunecookie3765only warmongers in Ukraine has been US politicians and Victoria Nuland
100% spot on. How have we become so passive? Maybe it's because the world is dominated by the isolationist US?
It's great to see Kate again. In my opinion one of the best interviewers there is.
Europe needs to step WAY up because they are next.
Europeans have never been capable of their own defense, much less anyone else's.
Putin I think is weak he hasn't done anything to worry me yet 2 years nothing lol
He has flattened cities es. What do you mean he hasn't done anything?@@craigmcguire2
Russia couldn't even take ukraine. You think they are gonna take America, France, Germany, and like 15 other nations as well at the same time? That's literally impossible. It's impossible. Stop drinking fear mongering propaganda and grow a brain
Too many Muslims in Europe considering Putin has built 25,000 Russian Orthadox Churches he doesn't want to adopt a Nest Of Vipers 🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍
Queen Putina called Biden for a chat and started shouting and screaming about a dream he had had. Putina says “I dreamt that the US was in tatters, people starving, rioting on the streets, the dollar collapsing, the Dow jones down 50% and Trump as President. Biden replied that he too has had a dream. Biden said “I dreamt of Moscow, It was a city full of happy smiling people, all driving around in the latest German cars, dressed in chic Italian fashions and dining in exclusive French restaurants, looking at the latest American Tech. The Building were covered in advertising signs with many colorful slogans being displayed. Putina jumps in “What did the slogans say?” Biden replies “Sorry, I don’t know, I don’t Speak Ukrainian

Interesting mindfukk 😅😊
The only people screaming is you clowns😂. 14k+ sanctions with no damage, coping out the atmosphere🤣
Love Kate and her guests. Gen Paul Ryans' comment that "democracies are precious" is a little unexpected from a military person but much appreciated. This is why this war in Ukraine is important. All suffering should be prevented if possible but, if not possible, then democracies are more precious ones because once saved it will most likely prosper like the South Koreans and not needed to be saved again in another war.
The problem Russia has is that, even though they will make marginal gains this year, they do not have the resources to keep them. It is difficult to convey the extent to which the Russian economy is exhausted.
The usa and their puppet countries are in huge debts 😂 go and look at the state of your city's and the amount of homeless people and tent city's ffs. Wake up.
Which is why they want to end this within a year. Then rebuild before moving on to their next victim and so on. Rinse and repeat.

Russian economy mis fine Europe sends them billions weekly, they are in a far better shape than N Korea, Venezuela,Argentina, Cuba,,and most of Africa,uoi don't see those countries starving, the West will always feed themes they let the Russians sell diamonds worth billions to Belgium,Germany buy natural gas coal and oilcan the world market which means Russia,. Norway produces it's own oil,and exports its does the US,we produce all we need and send a lot overseas, but Germans profit Putin and this muderous regime every day.
Russia is drowning.
speaking words of wisdom. let it be ( Ukraine's victory, that is)
Japan also manufactures its own ships, submarines, and aircraft. In fact, it's been doing this for many years. Australia, some years ago, had intended to buy its submarines from Japan before a change in government put paid to such a deal.
Crimea River, Putin!
The black sea will be the "Red Sea" soon
Made me laugh
Great interview Kate! I hope the tide is turning and democracies realize how beneficial the investment is in fully supporting Ukraine to defeat Russia, and all authoritarian countries.
As a student of societal change, including government and wars, I have come to believe that even if Ukraine pushes Russia out of its national borders, under Putin Russia will still fight. Unfortunately, the problem is Putin, the Russians like him, and will suffer much before they can be alienated from this affection. Realistically, if Russia is to change, it must suffer an unconditional surrender similar to Germany and Japan ending WWII.
Then I have a big question for you as an student of social change; How many times have Russia the last 350 years been a friendly neighbouring country without war effort?
@@user-tq9vk4vt5pGood point.😒
Putin won't stop until either he is dead, stopped by his own people or he has destroyed Russia. He will fight on to the last bullet, rouble and soldier and still never concede he has failed. This war started because of his illness and it is what continues to drive it. NATO countries should be fully prepared for any eventuality as Putin will get more desperate and unpredictable when he becomes more cornered and feels his grip on power slipping away.
Russia doesn't need to be forced into an unconditional surrender. Support for the war effort simply has to collapse. Collectively, the US and Europe have the wherewithal to keep Ukraine in the war until such an event happens.
@@calc1657 Exactly. Basically, when the troops at the front are no longer paid or fed and have to walk back to Russia because they've even run out of vehicles and fuel, there will be no Russians left to man the extensive defenses.
Multi storm shadows at a set of pillars on the bridge could bring it down in conjunction to a seaborne invasion assuming all s400 systems have been taken out with atacms… would make a good way to go….
ATACMS are a standard target for Russian air defense. To take out Russian air defense with ATACMS, you'd need salvos vastly larger than what Ukraine will be able to launch.
@@Eelis0 There already evidence that ATACMS have destroyed S400 and S300 systems, the coordination of Russian air defence is quite bad and they have ton of friendly fire and misindentification problems.
@@Eelis0Says who? Orcs?
@@Eelis0Russian aircraft are a prime target for Russias own defense missiles.
The fact is Russia has now a land bridge too. Therefore, targeting the bridge unlikely to do much in terms of logistics for the front line. But I think it will affect civilian logistics more.
Great interview
Crimea belongs to Ukraine!
Not any more
Another outstanding interview. Thank you so much
Times Radio I know your people are making these videos at home but for goodness sakes please provide them with some decent audio equipment.
Very insightful. You see, my fellow Kiwis, there are some very intelligent Australians. Forgive me for the running joke. It's banter born of brotherly love. To be fair, Australians, by and large, tend to be taking the threat a lot more seriously than the Hobbits of New Zealand, and have contributed a lot more meaningfully and materially. New Zealand needs to grow a spine and stop pretending that we don't owe Australia a great deal of gratitude for defending us.
island inhabitants live in a security bubble world
Thanks, it was interesting to hear what Mr Ryan had to say
American human rights activist Ajamu Baraka: Ukrainians finally realized that they were being prepared for destruction for the sake of the geostrategic interests of the United States, which have nothing to do with them. The result is massive capitulations on the front line and people avoiding conscription.
That’s Russia you are talking about comrade ,it’s up against a 40 yes 40 trillion GDP free world

Time to look at how to seek a resolution to this conflict and stop the killing and NATO has to accept responsibility for goading both sides into a fight
After all the Russians have either gone home or died in their pointless invasion.
Take away Russia's new 'warm water' port, or simply deny him the use of it, and that will hurt Putin where it hurts, in his megalomania.
Times needs to adjust the modulation up on their volume, the guests volume is fine.

When your strategic goals rely on magical thinking you've already lost.
The Ukrainian military and government know that they have enough munitions to regain their territory sooner than later and we looking in from the outside have to see that also. Just because Russia is gaining ground it doesn't mean that they are going to be able to keep it. With the help that is coming Russia doesn't have anything to defeat it and they will have to retreat.

Great Interview. Thanks
We should just have a joint coalition spanning South Asia / Japan, South Korea and Australia as well as Europe. We're in it together anyway, so why not formalize it? View coming from Sweden - just about opposite position on the globe. But we are VERY dependant on what happens on "the other side of the globe". We need and should defend ourselves together!
Look at what Politicians do not at what they say they will do
The wetern alliance and USA need to get serious about matching Russias shell stocks.

I was listening to this KZhead clip on my cell phone earlier today and when the guest said that Ukraine had not been rotating brigades earlier in the war but recently they had started to rotate them; and then, he offered his personal opinion that this was good, I first thought it was funny and then I thought maybe he was saying generally speaking earlier in the war, Ukraine had not rotated brigades, but that sometimes they did rotate brigades. Maybe brigade rotations were few and far in between, but it did happen, in other words. Maybe he was pressed for time and needed to be clear that for the most part brigades were not being rotated but such rotations were now the practice rather than the exception. I remember on July 11, 2023, I drove to a spot where a brigade rotation occurred right in front of my eyes. This spot was a couple towns/villages from Kramatorsk. Mobile Howitzers and many other vehicles were driving down the highway in the direction to Bakhmut. Mobile howitzers were being removed by trailer and those arriving drove down the road to Bakhmut. If you were to draw a straight line from Bakhmut to where I was, I was 10 miles from the front. I later was told by a Ukrainian NYT interpreter that a brigade rotation was taking place and unbeknownst to the interpreter (unless I had mentioned what I had observed - I can't remember) I had observed it for more than 2 hours ten miles from the front. It was not a line of vehicles one right after another. It was a vehicle here and there. There was a stationary tank behind some trees apparently waiting for orders and likely securing the area. There were a number of check points that I went through before I reached my last check point. There was a check point maybe 50 yards in front of me from where I observed the rotation. There was a light rain shower that refreshed the area during the warm afternoon. I found it rather interesting that I found what would be similar to U.S. army K-rations hidden away from the road under some brush. I had used the spot near it as a latrine when I came across five or six blue packagings.
The audio dropouts were very annoying,and made listening to an interesting discussion difficult in parts.
A "much leveler playing field"?
I was in Ukraine 25 years. And Crimea 2000 to 2012.

A very good up to date analysis of the latest military situation. I very much fear Russia will never give up the land they've taken from Ukraine. Russia may have lost upwards of 50,000 young soldiers already. And Putin will just keep pumping manpower to the front line. This could go on for decades.

Putin is bombing puppy shelters in Ukraine. That's the quality of Times Radio journalism.
Thinking outside the box as a child does eg there’s is ‘flooding in part of the world and drought in another, why can’t we move the water’. Extrapolating that into adulthood, why can’t we have a Berlin Wall globally between peoples that want freedom and choice in their lives (Democracy) and peoples that want to be told or instructed in their lives (Autocracies). Have a visa system if you you think the grass is greener on the other side!
Last few centuries? Ever heard about ancient Greece?
Dont worry they will find away to share them with the russians
I hope that bridge comes down on or before next Tuesday, May 7th, when Putin is re-inaugurated, and two days before his victory extravaganza. Would Vlad survive?

Ukrainians have to fix their own mobilization program. They have always needed 150,000 new recruits per year. It will take Ukrainians 18 months to have a recruit go from Basic Training to Brigade Offensive Operations Trainings. In addition to the above recruits: NCO Training is factored into the timeline; about 4,500 Officers need to be recruited and trained in this timeline; and Specialty Training for Officers and NCOs required for Battalion and Brigade Staffs are required. Battle planning at Battalion and Brigade involve Warning Orders, terrain analysis, threat and friendly Unit analysis, options to achieve Objective(s), threat options, logistics, coordination of fires, intel gaps, Commander decision points, and timelines for options. These all have to be part of war gaming. The Commander’s Intent and final adoption of a plan has to be war gamed again if substantially different from an option. Battle planning needs to be completed with in the 1/3-2/3 rule.

I've been watching all the news reports and listening to all the different "military experts" since Russia invaded Ukraine and started the war. But what I can not understand is why all I hear is about the fight on the front lines!! Come on it's not rocket science, if Ukraine uses the storm shadow missiles, which they've had for a long time now, to blow the Korch bridge to smithereens and then attack the train lines on the land bridge and totally destroy the Russian supply lines and logistics Ukraine could win the war in a matter of weeks....what's stopping them for doing these obvious things? Is Putin doing his usual B.S. of saying he will use nuclear weapons if the Ukrainian's flattern the Korch bridge or what?
Ukraine has used dozens of these missiles, they've all been shot down by Russia
Well they need to do something before this money from the US simply evaporates... Just like the EU funding simply evaporated. When will you be bringing on an eu funding specialist to explain where this moeny has disappeared to?
Russia was well capable of supplying Crimea well before the bridge was ever built.
2 years into this war. Do you really think rational facts can get through to TR audience?

I do think that later this year Europe will have to up their game as Trump will withdraw US support. So be it, we will need to step up. But in terms of Taiwan, US, this is on you in terms of messaging.
