A weird thing happened between the time European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen delivered a recent speech about the Ukraine War and the time that speech was published online – specifically, the EC President’s references to the 20,000 Ukrainian civilians and 100,000 soldiers who have been killed since the war began were removed. And those figures – whether people know she said them or not – are surely underestimates.
Guest host Aaron Maté and former U.S. Marine and weapons inspector Scott Ritter discuss why these particular remarks would be stricken from the speech prior to publication online.

The UN OHCHR put out the deaths of civilians in Ukraine recently (mid December), and it's at 6,884 which is 6.8%. That's way low compared to what the US/nato did in Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Libya.
She's a liar!
Yet another Human sacrifice: X- Factor winner reveals World secret religion
Where are the divas and where is this station?!
Buden's election slogan "America is back" was to provoke this war
Diva Station
All this reveals is the corrupt EU/US/NATO alliance nature. I cannot believe how Europe went along with the warmongering US – Europe was set up to prevent further conflict – the US/NATO game is destroying Europe.
Should be like in a boxing match. When the official realize one guy is going to lose and is just getting beaten mercilessly, for the safety of the boxer who is obviously losing, he stops the fight via TKO.
Lynsey Graham was in the military. How about sending him to Ukraine?
Soon there will be no men of marrying age. Only old men or children.
We saw this in WWII and WWI
This will devastate Ukraine for decades.
There will be an exodus of Ukraine women looking for men from the west
Scott ritter is so full of shit
They want a bigger war to a solution to war
I'd love to see a breakdown of the countries mercenaries come from and then go to that country's UN representative and ask them about it.
Awesome segment
Kind of sounds like Vietnam when they referred it to as the hippie grinder
I like Scott Ritter all the best to all of you guys and a happy New Year wishing good people from BC Canada🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
This is another Rothchild Iraq War! Wake up!..
This is US Proxy War. 👿.
Well, at least there is one really good thing happening in the Ukraine, tens of thousands of mercenaries, those that kill for fun and profit are dying, yeah ;|.
This is bullshit. I hate this war as much as anybody, but to blame all of this on 'western countries' is to completely ignore the ethnic genocide from Russia. It started in the Crimean Peninsula and now extends with more annexations, massive civilian casualties and bs 'rules of engagement' where we can kill your people and infrastructure but you can't respond in kind because we have nuclear weapons. All of this for a land bridge and some bull shit notion of a rebirth of an empire? The Ukrainian government may be corrupt, there are obviously nazi sympathizers in their military ranks, but should the entire country and culture be wiped out for what is so obviously imperialistic goals? I love this show but damn, quit ball licking Russia and Putin.
Fake War, fake news.
Well said Scott.
This is the complete repeat of the Crimea War. Research the history of this place.
She didn't forget nor did she care.
CNN : Ukraine is winning…… Yahoo😉
If you destroy it there is no evidence of US corruption left to discover..labs, papers on Biden, McCain, Chuckie etc..oh yes dont forget Obama.
