I think Noam Chomsky should be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

The AI intro and summary are entirely unnecessary and irritating. His speech can stand with a MINIMUM of introduction. Just let him speak for himself.

[@naturelife418]

Thank you Noam, I admire you and I think you are correct on many things, please take good care of your health. Much love from portugal

Ukraine already had a negotiated settlement in 1991 about the border and agreement to give up drones and nukes in exchange for not getting invaded. Russia broke all of those.

[@monichat]

I would rather like to hear what he has to say about the atrocities committed by israel

[@cynthiamadrid1430]

❤ Thank you NOAM....

Chomsky speaks truth to power and tells it like it is every time. The human costs of this horrific war are all but impossible to bear. But, the global and planetary costs far outweigh those of any previous conflicts. NATO and the Russian coalition absolutely must negotiate for peace immediately.

[@limbus_patrum]

1. It seams you don't even recognize existence of Ukraine in those negotiations. It's war between *Ukraine* and Russia. They have a right of self determination. 2. Who is this "Russian coalition"? 3. Negotiations are impossible when Russia don't want to negotiate. What i mean by it; "total unconditional surrender of Ukraine" is not a condition any country would agree. 4. Putin's regime not only claims entire Ukraine but also the right to decide who can be in what military or economical alliances. They officially don't recognize any change after 1991 with exception of German reunification (the latter was questioned only on national television but not officially by the regime.). The help Ukraine gets from NATO stems from this threat to whole Eastern Flank. As a Pole, I can say with certainty: WE (Poland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Romania, Moldova and Ukraine) DO NOT WANT TO RETURN TO THE STATUS OF A RUSSIAN COLONY.

I agree with this view whole heartedly. There will be no “winner” on the battlefield. Medea Benjamin and Nicolas Davies have spelled it out in there latest book, “War in Ukraine, Making Sense of a Senseless Conflict”. Henry Kissinger said “Having America as an enemy is dangerous, while having us as a friend is deadly.” That’s never been truer than in the case of Ukraine.

[@swede910]

The feeling that the juice have not seen what will REALLY happen yet, historically speaking, came to me more than 25 years ago. Suck on that, do you realize what I am talking about!? Why do some people just have walk into trouble.

Territorial integrity means back to 1991 borders.

[@PlumbuM871]

As of November 1991 👍

[@Mr.Patrick_Hung]

Best wishes and stay safe. Respect from China.

[@gypsylake5164]

I agree I think they should negotiate a peace agreement and mutual respect for each others sovereignity an unwavering committment to each others security by flatly disallowing any alignment with NATO as in membership and in ever permitting NATOs activities, missles or any such equipment or activity along their shared borders or within the country's territory. This is crucial for security and integrity in any ageement they can reach, they must assure each others security and sovereignity.

[@bw9380]

But this is exactly what Putin don't want. He don't want to respect others sovereignty, as he did in 2008, 2014, 2022. Only way for Ukraine to be sovereign is trough mutual alliances that will protect them.

[@dadada486]

It's quite sad that Chomsky will probably live to see the end of Palestine.

[@jamesgoodzeit214]

I used to respect Chomsky, but he is terribly naive and influenced by Russian propaganda. He also completely fails to take into account the Ukrainians' perspective.

[@eldragon4076]

Ukraine perspective is irrelevant.

[@luca6635]

Rubbish

[@jorglange2666]

Ukraine and the West have not honored any previous agreements so it seems that Russia has had enough and it will be decided militarily unless there is an unconditional surrender by Ukraine.

[@limbus_patrum]

What agreements exactly? Russia agreed to respect Ukrainian 1991 borders, but dictator decided land grab in 2014 after failed previous one in 2008.

[@jorglange2666]

@@limbus_patrum What dictator? Minsk agreements 2014 and 2015 were just to delay so NATO could move in troops according to Merkel. Ukraine lost sovereignty and let the US stage a coup and take control to start a war with Russia to the last Ukrainian. So sad!

Agree except that Ukr as currently constituted cannot make its own decisions without leading itself further down the path to a failed state.

[@claireh.7605]

Ukraine wasn’t a failed state until Russia invaded it. They had presidents. They were fighting corruption. Russia sent in paramilitaries and military and created fake republics to take the blame

[@bradsillasen1972]

Dare I say he'd connect to a broader audience if he would try not to mumble and speak articulately. Hard to follow when you're trying to just hear what he's saying.

[@edmondv.o.katusz]

Chomsky was born born December 7, 1928! Do the math! At that age speaking is difficult, not to say hard.

[@johnlaudenslager706]

A negotiated settlement that restores Ukraine's territorial integrity would be great, and would be considered defeat by Putin and unacceptable. Letting Putin keep Crimea and the Donbas would reward invasive behavior, sending a message to Putin and to China that invasion to change borders still works. Chomsky is OK with that?

[@pavomrnarevic3900]

You cannot pick and choose when to apply the inviolability of international borders , the rubicon was crossed in Kosovo and there is no going back now.

[@PlumbuM871]

Wake up, gentlemen. Putin tried to negotiate with these clowns for several years. Then in Istanbul they signed an agreement that they did not even think about implementing. Now there will be no negotiations

[@monichat]

Crimea and Donbass are Russian territories - non negotiable
