The west wasn't what I was discussing. It doesn't necessarily follow that criticising Putin means I excuse criminals like Bush, Blair, Sarkozy etc.
Hmm,
Putin would have been a righteous man if he allowed NATO establish in Ukraine.
He would also have been a righteous man if he allowed Navalny and co to install a western govt.
He would have been righteous if he put west first, Russia second
Very easy and straight forward world we live in.

This time around Nigeria was smart to not vote at all.

It does not perform well under the African conditions, we lost about 10% of them on crashes and mind you our pilots are not bad.

they are well regarded for there hot and high performance(not as well regarded as the oryx obviously) , none of the crashes where related to them not being able to cope with African conditions....I know at least 1 crash that was 100% pilot error, and there were teething problems at the start like the tail rotor which was fixed..... Also we can't expect the a109 to preform like the oryx in our conditions.... Out of all the tenders the a109 was the best option

Please stop talking like a child

If there are no nuks deployed in NATO Eastern states today tell me what will Russia do if NATO starts deploying nuks in Eastern Europe tommorow, there are no laws stopping NATO from deploying nuks in its Eastern member States. The only way out for Russia is to prevent or stop such military organization from coming to it's doorstep, if the US finds it self in the same situation as Russia the US would have taken more drastic measures.

NOW I Will PROVE THAT THE US WOULD HAVE DONE WORST.


So you think Russia can prevent NATO from deploying nuclear weapons at its border by invading Ukraine? While US/UK/France can simply fire a ICBM from anywhere else?

Russia demanded security guarantees, these included:

> Ukraine should never join NATO,
> the withdrawal of all NATO troops from the Eastern European NATO accession states
> an end to all military NATO activities there,
> a contractual renunciation of any further NATO membership and an end “nuclear sharing” > (the stationing of US short- and medium-range nuclear missiles in Western Europe)

Russia offered:

> nothing

The demands were non-negotiable and were therefore not negotiated. A few weeks later, Russia invaded Ukraine. Since then, Moscow has been covering the neighboring country with the cruelest war crimes in the name of "demilitarization" and putting into practice a genocidal rhetoric of extermination preached in the name of "denazification". The only reason that Putin didn't want Ukraine in NATO is because he wanted to invade Ukraine. It has nothing to do with Russia's security interests.

For Putin countries like Ukraine or Poland are either non-existent or just puppets of the United States. The Ukrainian territory would be only the first step in his long term strategy to establish a greater Russia. It is no coincidence that Putin has demanded complete withdrawal of NATO troops from the countries of the former Warsaw Pact. Putin also believes that right now he has a certain military advantage over the US in hypersonic weapons. He has repeatedly said that this advantage will not last too long, for Americans would soon catch up. It means he has to capitalise on it now.

Russia propaganda is pushing the narrative that the West to be fundamentally weak, corrupt, and cowardly. And i thnk at some point the Kremlin believed their own propaganda to be true. It looks like a miscalculation because as a result, everything Russia allegedly wanted to stop with its list of demands will be realized now:

> neutral Sweden & Finland to join NATO in June, this is extending the RU - NATO borders by 1,340km
> The NATO military presence in Eastern Europe is being expanded
> Ukraine army is being supported by the west
> an increase in the US nuclear presence is under discussion
> EU and Kyiv are talking about EU accession of Ukraine

Still you can argue the Idea was right but execution was poor - but geostrategically, Russia has already lost more than it can gain, however this war turns out.

please just pack all your load on this forum and leave. grin grin i have been studying you quote on this forum especially in this Ukraine and Russia war. my brother you need to go back and check history very well about NATO and USA. Russian have a very legitimate case, if truly USA and NATO want the war to end by now negotiation between Russia and NATO as a whole would have been taking place. USA is hiding something in this war. with the kind of weapon send to Ukraine, if it was send to Nigeria and other African countries by now insurgent and insecurity in Africa would have being an history, instead the will tell Nigeria and Africa country, we are you allies in fighting insecurity and terrorism in Africa. if you have the money to buy from them they will tell you human right. the war they created in Africa by bombing Libya to total destruction is eating African continent Russia did not bomb Ukraine the NATO and USA did to Libya. let me enjoy the comment on this thread

So there are still men like you who supports the US despite what the US has done. Now you said Russia has carried out cruelest war crime in Ukraine but some times I wonder where were men like you when the US invaded irag even when the UN past a resolution not to. I still ask myself where were men like you when the Palestinian people were being bombed in their own country and their land being occupied for more than sixty years

Many countries has seen the ugly face of NATO, how I wish you go to Libya today and mention the name NATO I promise you your live will change for good after that moment.

Syria, Libya, Sudan, Yemen, Irag, Palestine, Afghanistan, etc. when war crimes were being committed in the Middle East were you not in existence?

Don't tell me anything about the west( the empire of lies ) I THINK The Only PROBLEM YOU Have IS THAT You WATCH TOO MUCH CNN

You ask me where i was, when those people suffered? grin grin grin

I tell you where i was, on right side of history: I was on the side of the Syrians, Libyians, Sudanese, Yemenites, Iraqi, Palestines, Afghan people and consequently i am on the side of the Ukrainian people today - for the very same reason because I oppose all forms of imperialism. Again: I do not believe that US imperialism is better then Russian imperialism or vis-a-vis that Russian imperialism is an alternative to US imperialism.

The Nigerian Armed forces should start applying a holistic approach to show their capabilities in areas that directly or indirectly affects security.

Pic attached is of a village in Yobe, showing encroaching sand dunes which leads to displacement and probable incentive for some adopt criminal vices to make a living.

The Army could dedicate a body within itself to liaise with bodies such as National Agency for Green Wall or state governments and collectively pursue a goal of fighting desertification. This grassroot effort may also lead to greater integration with the local community where we they are looked at as capacity builders and not just warfighters.

The effects would be enduring and promote understanding and awareness with the local community of their efforts.

Might be increased costs on the budget but I believe we need to start preemptive approaches to stem the current 'whack - a - mole' levels of insecurity springing up in Nigeria.

This war, better to wait to the end before judging. No one will give up their country without a fight; will this be Russia vietnam? I pray this will wake up the Russian military, it urgently needs modernisation . To me, it's Russia vs ukraine+NATO+US ; and they're holding it quite well, all have legitimate reasons but the winner is the one whose reasons are more legitimate, that's how the world works.

Also Russia has no intention of taking Ukraine, not something you'd do with less than 200k soldiers.
They thought the idea of an invasion would scare Ukraine, came with less troops and got surprised.
