During the first episode of the smartest person Tonight, presenter Philip Frericks faced the one-man jury Martin van Rossum with a sore moment in February of this year.

I said, ‘Go to sleep, because Putin doesn’t do that in his life.'”

He was on the table on the talk show in 1 Which Martin van Rossum said on the evening of Wednesday 23 February: “There is no question of an invasion. It is an affirmation of a position that has been around for a long time and will not fundamentally change.” Freecs: ..the whole world has fallen on you, because yes, you are always right. But it turns out you were wrong. What went wrong, Martin? ”

Van Rossum: I thought Putin was as smart as me. He was known to be a good political tactician, as well as an important strategist.”
Fricks: But the Americans have been screaming for weeks: He’ll do it.”
Van Rossum: I thought: They’re doing it on purpose to stop him, as it were. for not letting him do that. In addition, I did not believe what the US intelligence services were saying. Since they supplied the Iraq war with lies you have rarely seen in your life. Putin did not call me. Then I could change his mind.”
