DRAMATIC ESCALATION: ”Russia Is Going To Destroy Ukraine & Kill Zelensky!”– Scott Ritter

Former weapons inspector Scott Ritter tells Jimmy that Russia has shifted its approach to the Ukraine war, moving beyond the constrained "special military operation" to applying its full strategic capabilities. He describes attending this year’s Victory Day celebration where the Russian ambassador's speech was aggressive, calling for Ukraine's unconditional surrender and labeling Germany as the "reemergence of Nazi ideology."

Ritter warns that Ukraine has already committed over 400 ceasefire violations, and that Russia now views the long-range drone strikes on its energy infrastructure—facilitated by NATO intelligence and European drone production—as an existential threat that cannot be tolerated. He predicts that Russian forces will destroy Ukrainian cities, including Kiev, this summer, and that President Zelensky is a "dead man walking" who should leave Ukraine and never return.
