Bernard-Henri Levy: Zelensky is a new Churchill, Ukraine in NATO, the curse of Russian propaganda
Bernard-Henri Levy is a French philosopher, journalist, writer, and politician. In France, he is often referred to simply as BHL. His beliefs, political activism, and publications have also been the subject of several controversies over the years. In 2015, he was banned from entering Russia. We talked about the politicians who support Putin in Europe, the wars started by America, how important what is happening in Ukraine now, and how important Ukraine will become after the war. And what a shame the Russians will have to endure. For Russian voiceover see • Бернар Анри Леви: Зеленский – это Чер...
00:00 Bernard-Henri Levy - author of "Barbarism with a Human Face". In the book, he describes that Hitler is still alive, and the world is still not rid of Nazism. And Putin today is proof of this.
03:43 There are many pro-Putin people in Europe who understand Putin and try to sympathize with him. Affiliation, anti-Americanism, contempt for democracy. Some of them are on Putin's payroll, but some are simply anti-American. Today's pro-Putinists continue to believe that imperialism is American, while imperialism today is Russia, China, and Iran. The capture of Africa from the economic side is carried out today by China, and from the military side - by Russia and PMC Wagner.
10:00 America's wars in Iraq, Libya, Yugoslavia - what are they for? How to show those women and men who have accepted the ideals of democracy that we are not deaf, that we are not on the side of the dictator? Yugoslavia is a humanitarian intervention to stop barbarism.
14:57 There are a lot of notes about Ukraine on Twitter. What mistakes the West made over the years and how it should have reacted to Putin. Naivety and ideology: if we trade a lot if we create all sorts of Nord Stream 1, and Nord Stream 2, then this will limit Putin like an economic straitjacket. It was an ideology, not just a weakness. Economic ties don't stop Putin.
18:33 Is Russian culture inevitably imperialistic? Solzhenitsyn - Dante of the 20th century. Two different Solzhenitsyns: an artist and an ideologist. The mainstream of Russian culture today is imperialistic, most Russians support this war. But there are free voices of the followers of Nemtsov, and Navalny, people who will listen to Muratov. It is necessary to fight inside the Russian language with the Russian world against the ideology of crime, which has invaded the Russian language and Russian culture.
28:33 The transformation of Ukraine: the Ukrainian army has changed a lot. Ukraine began to carry out the normal task of a normal state, to rearm. The Ukrainians built an army. Putin claims that only Russia owns the victory in the Patriotic War. No. Most of the victories of World War II are the merit of the Ukrainian army too. Ukraine has reunited with this past.
32:25 Poroshenko was a good president for Ukraine. Is Zelensky Reagan or Beppe Grillo? Before, of course, it was an actor posing as the president. And then it happened that Zelensky became Churchill.
36:04 The future of Ukraine after the war, the Marshall Plan for Ukraine, and reparations. Russia will emerge from this war as a ruined country. After the war, you will have a new Ukraine, united and democratic as it has never been, without corruption. Russia will go back to the past. All seeds of democracy will be buried. Russia will return... Not to the Middle Ages, but to the past. It will be difficult for Russia to rebuild itself. And Ukraine will join Europe, and NATO. And it will play a big role because the Ukrainian army will come out of this war one of the best in the Western world.
41:03 Putin will not be able to survive as a politician even a minute after his defeat. A dictator who lied that he would bring pride to his people, but brought shame... Every Russian citizen will sooner or later be full of shame.
42:34 Alexander Dugin is a fascist. This is not a metaphor. He embodies most of the ideologies surrounding Putin. He is a weak fascist, but certainly a representative of the mainstream of today's Russian ideology.
47:07 The future of the world: "The Empire and the Five Kings". The moment of truth has come now, and it's in Ukraine. If Russia loses, and Russia has already lost, then China, Turkey, and Iran will lose.
50:00 Populism and humanity's dependence on mobile phones will not decrease, it will not decrease. Google and attention and memory deficit.
56:33 I am proud to be cursed by Russian propaganda.
