In my latest report from Tbilisi, Georgia, I focused on capturing the perspectives of the city's youth, as tensions between protesters and the government remain high. The interviews I conducted during this report shed light on the growing dissatisfaction of Georgia's younger generation with their government and their vision for the future.

I began my coverage near Liberty Square Metro Station, just a short distance from the Parliament building where the ongoing protests have centered for weeks. This location offered a prime opportunity to engage with young voices who are either actively participating in the protests or closely following the political situation.

One of the key takeaways from my conversations was the frustration many young people expressed with the current government. They believe that the administration is out of touch with their generation's priorities, especially regarding education, opportunities, and alignment with Western values. Several young interviewees pointed out that they feel ignored and dismissed by those in power, creating a widening gap between the youth and the government.

One of the young individuals I spoke with explained how disillusionment with the government has motivated many of their peers to take to the streets. They argued that the protests reflect the collective voice of a generation seeking change. In their words, the government seems unwilling to listen or adapt, leaving the youth with no other choice but to push back publicly and loudly.

Another interviewee highlighted the importance of these protests in shaping the future of Georgia. They expressed hope that their actions would lead to more opportunities and a stronger alignment with European democratic values. This sentiment reflects a growing desire among young Georgians for closer ties with the European Union and a rejection of what they perceive as outdated governance.
However, as I moved further away from the immediate protest sites, the diversity of opinions became apparent. Not all young people in Tbilisi fully support the demonstrations. Some voiced skepticism about the motivations behind the protests, questioning whether they were truly grassroots movements or influenced by external forces. These dissenting opinions underscore the complexity of the political climate in Georgia and the challenges of uniting public sentiment.
One of the most striking aspects of my interviews was the passion and determination of the youth involved in the protests. They see themselves as the future leaders of Georgia, fighting for a country that aligns with their values and aspirations. For them, the protests are not just about short-term changes but about establishing a long-term vision for Georgia's place in the world.
These interviews provided a window into the minds of a generation that feels they are at a crossroads. The youth of Tbilisi, whether actively protesting or simply voicing their frustrations, are grappling with the challenges of navigating a political system they see as resistant to change.
As the protests continue to evolve, the voices of Georgia's young people will remain a critical part of the story. Their concerns, hopes, and demands for change reflect not just the immediate political tensions but also the broader struggle for Georgia's identity and future.

Kuibyshevsky district. Took footage of a home that was hit by Ukraine shelling last night. One 59 year old woman, Tamara Belogurova ,was seriously injured and died while having surgery today. Her husband gave many comments on the situation.

The streets of Tbilisi, Georgia, remain filled with activity as protests continue into their tenth consecutive night. Sparked by the Prime Minister’s decision to delay EU accession talks until 2028, the demonstrations have drawn a diverse crowd and highlighted both grievances and hopes for the country’s future. Among the voices at the protests was Gerardo, a Jewish man from Argentina, whose perspective offered an insightful look at the unrest from an international lens.

Allegations of Police Brutality

A key focus of the night’s protests was the alleged police brutality reported during earlier demonstrations. Protesters held photos of individuals who they claim were injured during clashes with law enforcement over the past nine days.

“These people were hurt standing up for their vision of Georgia’s future in Europe,” said one demonstrator, gesturing to the photos. Accusations against the police include the use of pepper spray and excessive force.

Authorities, however, have maintained that their actions were necessary to preserve public safety amid escalating tensions. Officials have pointed to instances of pyrotechnics being fired at law enforcement and attempts to breach security perimeters, emphasizing their responsibility to prevent violence from spiraling further.

The government has called for investigations into these incidents, reaffirming its commitment to transparency and accountability. While acknowledging the frustrations of the protesters, they stress the need for order and dialogue as the country navigates this critical moment.

Religious Leaders Promote Peace

Adding a significant and symbolic dimension to the night, representatives from various religious communities—including Jewish, Muslim, Orthodox Christian, and Catholic leaders—joined the scene to express solidarity. Their presence underscored Georgia’s long-standing history of religious tolerance and unity in times of division.

These faith leaders offered a message of peace, calling for calm and a focus on shared values. Their participation resonated with many in the crowd, serving as a reminder of Georgia’s cultural cohesion despite its current challenges.

Gerardo: A Foreign Perspective

Among the demonstrators, I met Gerardo, a Jewish man from Argentina who has been in Tbilisi for two weeks. His observations provided a thoughtful and international perspective on the protests.

“It feels like they’re trying to create a second Ukraine here,” Gerardo said, referring to fears that external forces might be fueling tensions to draw Georgia into conflict with Russia. He expressed concern about the protests being co-opted by outside actors, suggesting that the situation could escalate into a geopolitical crisis if not managed carefully.

Gerardo also highlighted the divisive rhetoric he had encountered. “Mostly, I hear messages of hate and destruction,” he noted, explaining that while the protesters claim to fight for democracy, some factions within the movement seemed more focused on bringing down the government than proposing constructive solutions.

One of Gerardo’s most striking observations was the presence of extremist symbols, such as swastikas and white nationalist slogans, which he saw in parts of the city. “Georgia has always been tolerant toward Jews,” he said, referencing the country’s historical reputation for religious coexistence. “But seeing these symbols is alarming. It’s a sign that things might be shifting in a dangerous direction.”

Gerardo also noticed the prevalence of foreign languages among the protesters, including English and German. “I’ve heard a lot of foreign voices,” he said. “It raises questions about who is really behind some of this. It’s hard to tell if it’s purely local or if there are international influences at play.”

He did point out that he believed these protesters were mainly very young people that represent a small portion of the population and have a message of HATE.

Despite his concerns, Gerardo praised the Georgian people for their resilience and dedication to their country. “This is a great country with amazing people,” he remarked. “I just hope they can find a way forward that avoids unnecessary conflict.”

Поселок Донецкий под обстрелом, один гражданский ранен часть 1/2

In this video, I, Patrick Lancaster, delve into the Ukraine-Russia conflict, presenting a perspective often missing from Western media. I speak with former Ukrainian soldiers who defected to fight alongside Russian forces. Through their stories, training, and views on the war, they share motivations that challenge mainstream narratives. My goal is to provide an unfiltered look at their reasons for switching sides and what they believe they’re fighting for.
SUPPORT MY JOURNALISM: https://buymeacoffee.com/plnewstoday
1. The Defectors
These defectors come from places like Kharkiv, Vinnytsia, and Donetsk, with backgrounds in the Ukrainian military. Disillusioned by a government they see as corrupt and heavily influenced by the West, they describe Ukraine’s leadership as abandoning traditional values and fostering division. For them, this conflict is a destructive war between “brotherly peoples,” and they believe joining Russian forces is the only path to peace.
2. Training & Preparation
At a Russian training ground, I capture their drills, live-fire exercises, and tactical maneuvers with heavy weapons like machine guns and grenade launchers. The constant threat of air alerts reminds us all of the danger—at one point, we dive for cover from a missile warning. This isn’t just practice; it’s intense and very real.
3. Personal Accounts of Disillusionment
The defectors describe feeling unsupported in the Ukrainian military, with poor conditions, forced conscriptions, and inadequate resources. One tells me of how his unit was shelled by Ukrainian forces who mistook them for the enemy. Many feel abandoned by their commanders and believe Ukrainian policies serve Western interests over unity with Russia.
4. Independent Journalism Perspective
I’m here to provide a viewpoint rarely seen. My reporting is crowdfunded to stay unfiltered and independent. I want viewers to question dominant narratives, seek alternative perspectives, and form their own conclusions about the conflict.
5. Final Message
No matter where you stand, understanding both sides is essential. I encourage you to educate yourself, think critically, and avoid letting any single source shape your views. Only through open-mindedness can we begin to grasp the complexities of this conflict.
Insights from Defectors’ Stories
These soldiers have unique reasons for defecting, often tied to disillusionment, ideology, and hope for peace:

Disillusionment with the Government

They see Ukraine’s “Kyiv regime” as abandoning its people’s interests for Western agendas. One defector describes how Ukraine is “rewriting history” and erasing cultural values, while another criticizes the leadership for ignoring agreements under foreign pressure, which he sees as a betrayal.

Russia

These defectors don’t view Russians as enemies. Instead, they see the conflict as “artificial,” driven by political motives that divide Slavic peoples. One soldier tells me he sees it as a civil war, fueled by corruption, rather than a genuine national struggle.
Military Conditions and Abandonment

Defectors describe long, unsupported deployments and a sense of being treated as disposable. One surrendered to Russian forces, feeling abandoned by commanders. Their stories paint a stark picture of life on the front lines.
Betrayal and Trauma

Many defectors recount intense stories of betrayal. One soldier describes being shelled by Ukrainian forces in a case of mistaken identity. Injured, he thought he’d die, but Russian soldiers saved him. Such experiences have left deep scars and fueled their desire for change.
Protection of Civilians

Some defectors see their role as defending civilians from what they view as aggressive policies by the Ukrainian government. One soldier, known as “Historian,” recalls evacuating civilians under artillery fire and questions the morality of Ukrainian forces targeting their own people. For him, his fight is about protection, not aggression.
Hope for Peace

These defectors view their choice as a step toward ending the war and achieving unity. They stress they are “fighting with Russia, not for Russia,” and aim to create a future where Ukraine and Russia can coexist. They believe removing Ukraine’s current leadership is essential for fostering peace.
Personal and Familial Risks

Their choices come with high stakes. Many have family in Ukraine who could face consequences. Some wear masks to protect their identities, fearing reprisals. One soldier hopes his family won’t suffer for his actions, illustrating the personal and profound risks they face.
Conclusion
These defectors see themselves as individuals forced to make tough choices, driven by disillusionment, concern for their families, and a desire to end the conflict. They view their actions not as betrayal but as loyalty to Ukraine’s true interests, seeking unity with Russia and opposing foreign-imposed divisions. Through their stories, I aim to show the human side of this complex war, beyond the headlines.

I'm back in   Shebekino(a border city with Ukraine) in Belogrod region Russia where Ukraine has been hammering the city with attacks for over a year and in the recent time the attacks have greatly increased to the point of Russia needing to evacuate all the civilians for their safety. I have come to show you what you will not see in the Western main stream media.

Why does the Western mainstream media think the world does not deserve to see reports from both sides of the Ukraine War frontline?

It has been one year since Azerbaijan launched a large-scale military offensive against the state of Artsakh that ended in over 120,000 Armenians getting ethnicly cleansed. This film is my record of this horrible time.
Azerbaijan has showed time and again that they are prepared to invade Armenia. In this film we traveled to Armenia to show you the real situation. We covered Artsakh, Iran, Turkey and Georgia borders, both sides of the political unrest in Yerevan and all hot spots to give a real over all understanding of how Armenia and Artsakh has been betrayed. We covered . The facts are that over 120,000 armenian have been ethnicly cleansed from Artsakh by Azerbaijan.
Between 19 and 20 September 2023, Azerbaijan launched a large-scale military offensive against the state of Artsakh, a move in violation of the 2020 ceasefire agreement. The offensive took place in the disputed region of Nagorno-Karabakh, which is internationally recognized as part of Azerbaijan, but populated by Armenians. The attacks occurred in the midst of an escalating crisis caused by Azerbaijan blockading Artsakh by Azerbaijan, which has resulted in significant scarcities of essential supplies such as food, medicine, and other goods in the affected region.
During this offensive many civilians and at least 6 Russian soldiers were killed by Azerbaijan. In our research we found many eyewitnesses that said the say Azerbaijan soldiers torturing and dismembering civilians (including children)
On 20 September, a ceasefire agreement was reached at the mediation of the Russian peacekeeping command in Nagorno-Karabakh. Azerbaijan held a meeting with representatives of the Nagorno-Karabakh Armenians on 21 September in Yevlakh, to be followed by another meeting in October. Ceasefire violations by Azerbaijan were nonetheless reported by both Artsakhi residents and officials.

Human rights organizations and experts in genocide prevention issued multiple alerts, stating that the region's Armenian population was at risk or actively being subjected to ethnic cleansing and genocide, as well as war crimes and crimes against humanity. Luis Moreno Ocampo, the inaugural prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, warned that another Armenian genocide could take place, and attributed the inaction of the international community to encouraging Azerbaijan that it would face no serious consequences.As I said he was right and end the end Artsakh was completly cleansed of all of the more than 120,000 Armenians by Azerbaijan ending the Armenian population and history of Nagorno-Karabakh.

This film is the most complete record and needs to be seen.

The streets of Tbilisi are alive with unrest for the seventh consecutive night. In a scene filled with tension and emotion, Patrick Lancaster, on the ground in Georgia’s capital, captures the dramatic unfolding of a protest movement triggered by a controversial announcement from the ruling Georgian Dream party. The decision to delay talks of European Union (EU) accession until 2028 has sparked a wave of protests

Background to the Unrest
The ruling party, which has held power for over a decade, cited the EU’s critique of last month’s elections as neither free nor fair as the reason for delaying EU accession talks. Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili claimed the EU was “blackmailing” Georgia, a statement that incited outrage among opposition groups and citizens. In response, protests erupted, with opposition leaders and demonstrators decrying the government’s perceived betrayal of Georgia’s pro-European aspirations.

As the protests unfolded, they became increasingly violent. Homemade fireworks have been repurposed as makeshift weapons, and clashes with police—who have responded with water cannons—have resulted in dozens of injuries and hundreds of arrests. The protests have spread beyond Tbilisi, although participation has begun to dwindle after seven days of unrest.

The Role of Foreign Influence
The situation has drawn international attention, with narratives of foreign influence emerging. Prime Minister Garibashvili alleged that "foreign instructors" are behind the protests, an assertion that echoes comments made by Russian officials. Dmitry Medvedev, former Russian President, described the protests as an "attempted revolution" destined to fail, while Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova signaled Moscow's readiness to improve ties with Tbilisi. These comments raise questions about Georgia’s geopolitical future and the potential for Russian involvement. There has also been alleged a large foreign presence in the protesters.

In contrast, the EU’s new foreign policy chief has voiced unequivocal support for the protesters, warning that Georgia’s decision to delay EU integration could have serious consequences for its relationship with Europe. Against this backdrop, President Salome Zourabichvili, a pro-opposition figure whose term was set to end this month, has refused to leave office, citing the recent elections’ lack of integrity.

On the Ground: Patrick Lancaster’s Report
Patrick Lancaster's frontline reporting brings a human element to the chaos. Outside Tbilisi’s parliament building, he encounters a diverse group of protesters—many of them young people—voicing their determination to bring Georgia closer to the EU. One protester passionately stated, "We want Europe. Our government is corrupt, and we are here to save our country."

Lancaster captured scenes of escalating tension, including youth hurling firecrackers at police and protesters engaging in heated debates with officers. Despite the declining number of demonstrators, the energy remains charged as protesters insist on their vision of a European future for Georgia.

Meanwhile, Lancaster noted the government’s efforts to manage the situation, including a significant police presence encircling the parliament. Despite the heavy security, the protests reflect deep societal divisions, with some fearing a descent into violence akin to the Maidan protests in Ukraine in 2014.

The Broader Implications
The ongoing unrest in Georgia raises critical questions about its political and geopolitical trajectory. Will Georgia turn toward Europe or toward Russia? The Prime Minister’s recent statement claiming he was "misunderstood" about the EU delay has done little to calm tensions, as protesters and international observers remain skeptical of the government’s intentions.

Lancaster’s coverage offers a vital, independent lens on this evolving crisis. By documenting voices from the ground, he highlights the human struggle behind geopolitical shifts, providing invaluable insights into a nation at a crossroads.

What’s Next for Georgia?
The coming days will be crucial. With the protests entering their second week, pressure mounts on the government to clarify its stance and take action to address the protesters' grievances. As Lancaster aptly put it in his report, “The future of Georgia is in play right now.” The stakes could not be higher for a nation grappling with its identity, alliances, and the hopes of its people.

Hostilities Resume As Unrest Its Day 8 In Tbilisi Georgia as protesters fire pyrotechnics (large fireworks) on parliament building.

Protesters Fire Pyrotechnics at Parliament Building
As unrest in Tbilisi, Georgia, enters its eighth consecutive day, tensions have reignited with protesters firing large pyrotechnics at the Parliament building, adding a dramatic escalation to what had been a relatively peaceful previous night. The demonstrations, sparked by the government's announcement to suspend EU accession talks until 2028, continue to draw significant crowds and intensify political division in the country.

Day 8: Renewed Tensions and Aggression

Patrick Lancaster reports from the ground in Tbilisi, where protesters once again gathered in front of the Parliament building, a now-familiar scene during the last week. While the previous evening had been marked by relative calm, with no major clashes reported, tonight's events took a more aggressive turn.

Protesters, many of them young—between the ages of 15 and 25—gathered in significant numbers. Lancaster estimated the crowd at its peak on Day 7 to be around 40,000-50,000 strong. While slightly larger, tonight's gathering is substantial.

Protest Escalation: Pyrotechnics and Rocks

The demonstration shifted tone as protesters began firing pyrotechnics, including large fireworks, directly at the Parliament building. Additional actions included banging on the building's entrance with rocks and fists, with some younger attendees throwing stones at the police stationed nearby.

Earlier in the day, the police presence increased on both sides of the Parliament, anticipating potential unrest. Riot police were observed taking strategic positions, as has been routine during the past week, often using water cannons to maintain order in prior nights.

Backdrop to the Unrest

The protests began following an announcement by the ruling Georgian Dream Party to pause EU accession talks until 2028. The decision, viewed by many as a step away from Georgia’s European aspirations, ignited opposition parties and citizens to organize demonstrations.

Russian officials have also commented on the situation, with Dmitry Medvedev labeling the unrest as a "revolution destined to fail," while Maria Zakharova emphasized Moscow’s interest in fostering relations with Tbilisi. These statements highlight the international dimensions of the current turmoil.

Signs of Division and Unity

Lancaster’s on-the-ground reporting captures not only the chaos but also glimpses of peaceful dissent. He encountered a lone man voicing opposition to the protesters, yet his dissent was met without violence—a notable shift in tone from previous nights of intense clashes. Georgian, EU, and Ukrainian flags are frequently seen among the crowd.

Looking Ahead

As Day 8 unfolds, it remains unclear how the protests will evolve. The deployment of pyrotechnics and other acts of defiance indicate a continued escalation, while the presence of riot police suggests the state is prepared for further confrontation.

In the Ukraine Warzone Frontline city of Donetsk I talk to many locals (who call themselves Russians) about the fact that Finland has joined NATO. Their reactions will surprise you. Watch all the video for a big surprise at the end.

My name is Patrick Lancaster and I think you deserve more then what the Western main stream media is willing to show you. I think you need to see information for both sides of the contact line.
Why does the Western mainstream media think the world does not deserve to see reports from both sides of the Ukraine War frontline? Why do they only show you(almost all the time) things that are positive for Ukraine? Why when any English Speaking journalists try and show things in Russian-controlled territory they are attacked and attempted to be smeared by the Western MSM? Think about it!!
I believe You deserve MORE and I will make sure you continue to get it here on this channel!!

We can not cover every story from every place but we can do our best & of course, always bring you reports with full Eng & Rus translations.

In this (4K) documentary I have done my best to bring you to the heart and soul of Chechnya and the Chechen people. I take you to Grozny, the capital of Chechnya, to explore the life and training of the Chechnya Special forces and Police. Not only do we show you the Chechen Army but also the civilian infrastructure, History and religion. We go deep in-depth with the Chechen people to show you their souls and daily life. We find out what, after 2 wars with Russia ,the Chechen people really think about not only Russia but the USA, NATO and the Ukraine war. In our opinion you are not going to find a more complete documentary on Chechnya. You wont see any of this in the western media, they will only show you what their narrative supports. We give you the truth. And we have translated this documentary into 27 languages (make sure to turn on your language

Deep inside the Russian Special forces command and control center I filmed an exclusive and unprecedented never filmed by journalists report showing the real time organization and attack of Russian forces (Special Forces Akhmat) using both land and air units to destroy a group of Ukrainian soldiers. As normal I give you an indepth view into the military operations and lives of Russian soldiers. I show you what you will never see in the western main stream media. You should always strive to see things from as many sources so you can be educated and not just be led like sheep by someone with their own agenda of what they want you to believe. Breakout of the box, open your eyes and think for yourself

The situation in Soledar is Grave. I went into the center of Soledar with the Russia Private Military Company WagnerThe city is totally destroyed. No civilians remain. I saw only Wagner soldiers in the city. All civilians that did remain were helped to evacuate by the Wagner group. Apartment courtyards were turned into DIY graveyards. Ukraine still fires on the city almost non stop. My full video report coming VERY SOON.
