Welcome to our monthly conversation with Konstantin, who is one of the most respected voices on YouTube about what is happening Inside Russia. Konstantin Samoilov is a well-known YouTuber whose channel ‘Inside Russia’ comments insightfully on Russia’s decent into authoritarianism over the last few years. But now, like many others, he’s outside Russia, with no idea of when he can return there. ---------- CHAPTERS: 00:00:00 Health update from Konstantin and episode introduction. 00:03:36 There's one thing that is mighty in Russia, mightiest in the world, propaganda. 00:05:32 Unemployment is not low. It's catastrophic. Prices are going up for everything. 00:08:44 The so-called economic experts you mention are nothing but regime tools. 00:11:24 Everybody is talking about ‘child free’. The tax on those who don't have kids. 00:14:14 We all saw what was happening in Russia last winter. This one will be worse. 00:18:29 There are big questions about this turbine in Krasnodar – it's experimental. 00:22:00 Part of your country is occupied by a foreign army; you're not doing anything. 00:24:22 Putin smuggles North Koreans into the country, dresses them as Russians. 00:26:35 It's a proof that Russia is so desperate for more troops for the front lines. 00:28:31 What if North Koreans come at the rate of 10 or 12,000 every single month? 00:30:21 There's a kind of a gut feeling Putin might be getting set up by the Chinese. ---------- LINKS: INSIDE RUSSIA is a source of current news on Russia - Konstantin carefully selects 9 news stories that are important and really matter, with commentaries and analyses by Konstantin delivered daily to channel patrons at Patreon.com Get your access to daily news updates at patreon.com/INSIDERUSSIA @INSIDERUSSIA https://www.patreon.com/insiderussia ---------- OTHER VIDEOS WITH KONSTANTIN ON SILICON CURTAIN: https://youtu.be/2Pz9wGeCzXc (13-Aug-24) https://youtu.be/xV_cXBA12tw (22-Jul-24) https://youtu.be/lnIgKQRHM8o (15-Jun-24) https://youtu.be/XX3zU5QNvCw (22-May-24) https://youtu.be/qXcfjra6KGI (16-Apr-24) https://youtu.be/FTuvRZQMCN8 (04-Mar-24) https://youtu.be/URzXdRO02ps (29-Jan-24) ---------- SUPPORT THE CHANNEL: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain https://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain ---------- TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND: Save Ukraine https://www.saveukraineua.org/ Superhumans - Hospital for war traumas https://superhumans.com/en/ UNBROKEN - Treatment.
