  1. Ok, supporting protesters is a good thing.

    Hey, but how about putting MORE FOCUS on stopping Iran from
    SENDING RUSSIA MORE DRONES!!!!

    It would be interesting, as well, to CONFIRM from where the drones are being launched!!!
    Those are super long range, up to around 1,500 miles, so who knows if they are even being launched from inside Russia.

    I’m all for supporting the protesters, but priority might need to focus on Iran.
    THEY CANNOT BE TRUSTED…. as we’ve all seen.

    1. Cant stop them. They can transfer through Caspian sea area. Like the Houthis they can just transfer the tech schematics and Russia makes it themselves, then Iran doesnt need to send anything.

  2. I Love How Obama Haven’t Spoken on Trump About All this Bullshit He Started With The True People Of This Nation .

  3. If you take Asian map most of them will say watch your own business 🙈 By the way can you explain how those sanctions work ? Since Crimea, North Korea, China, Iran, Russia we feeling sanctions, but doesn’t look those countries feeling the same 🙈 Those countries after so many rounds of sanctions should be bankrupt long time ago 👌But looks like business as usual 🤭

  4. Let’s face it head on . Our allies can trample on human rights end we cooly, remorselessly and very conveniently look the other way. We use human rights issue as a stick to beat our foes.

  5. Really! Holding back public support? What about the 1.7 billion in cash he gave them. You don’t think the Iranians are putting that to good use right now?

  6. We always back down on these protestors to appease the dictator out of a misguided sense that the dictator will cut us some slack down the road, they won’t never will.

  7. It would be nice if the Biden administration was a concerned with the U.S. as it is with the rest of the world

  8. I was never an Obama fan but it’s refreshing and good to see him admit he blew it last time! Humility is a strength.

  9. >> For far too long the world community has looked the other way at oppression and aggression because it is good for business. We must join with other nations and link international trade directly to human rights in a positive and consistent way. Never too late to change our selfish ways. The profit must be taken out of oppression or nothing will really change. In fact, only crooked corporations and oligarchs profit from the current world order. << =

  10. I remember when he first got in his hair was jet black now he’s out his hair as white as snow it must be stressful trying to run this world🤔

  11. first, if ur gonna “help”, then do it for humanity and not to get strategic and/or financial and political gain from it … second, u have to understand the majority of peoples mentality (what they want and dont want) in said country/’s before even planning anything … third, admitting ur mistakes won’t bring back the millions of deaths the US caused since it got negatively involved in the ME.
