Power drunk could but they shouldn't forget that power is transient because someday Nigeria too will become a world power country and will take on Russia.

Mark this date. Great day guy's.
undecided this same Nigeria or another one?
As much as I believe in Nigeria, but taking on Russia is by far too much.

Your pastor righteousness who will rather see the world at war will soon go and bribe Putin to ensure he invade Ukraine so that he can quickly go to heaven.

I don't know why a man who is obsessed with the evils of war will be deemed as righteous.

Religion really did a number on some of us, so much that we are even afraid to think for ourselves.
honestly we all end up confusing ourselves in the name of religion...my brother if you have tried several method and still not making venture into spirituality then you see the money flowing in....here in African even the Mr righteous isn't lefteous, all na wash.

Well but if war will start the same way it would. Maybe united state intimidation came as shocking as ever for Kremlin or maybe not.

You guys forgot Russia can only act when Ukraine join NATO did you think Russia will strike without that in play. No it's all western propaganda.

Why did they sorround Ukraine with their troops if they had no plans of invading. They chickened out!

ALLNIGERIANSMAD:
forget, Russia know what awaits them so dey decide to run
Nothing awaits them. Like I said, a deal must have been reached at the dying minute.
Vladmir Invaded Georgia in 2008 or so, Nothing happened. He annexed Crimea, nothing happened. He would have invaded Ukraine and nothing will happen. US will not risk an all out war because of Ukraine. You think Russia gathered 200k troops just for fun They may not be an economic power like the US, but they possess the deadliest nukes (in terms of number and damage capability).
US cannot risk an all out nuclear war because of UKRAINE, otherwise they would have gone to war when Russia took Crimea.
They have struck a deal and that is it. Russia is not interested in war, they just want to achieve a purpose of not allowing Ukraine enter NATO.

But russian soldiers have also been sleeping in the snow for the same period of time. so what is funny really?

Besides, you can easily argue that the period of preparation was useful training for the Ukrainians. Of course, people like me always knew Russia was merely playing games, and so did everyone else, but make no mistake - this was a test of the western powers willingness to act.

now that Putin knows they won't sit idly by, the test is over.

Oh! It took Russia two months to realise that US meant business and that they were weaker... Lol

NATO and US really would have dealt with Russia and Putin would have taken all the blame as Russians would have pointed all fingers towards him.

I laugh at ignorant statement here, this is bad on Putin's image. Because he knew either ways everything was on him, what america succeeded in doing was arm Ukraine to the extent any invasion will be costly on Putin. The NATO allies stood their ground in his own backyard, as it is there is no more concession for Putin. Also what you all must know is when intelligence operations fail in achieving it's goal, it's when military action takes effect.
This doesn't look good for Russian foreign intelligence SVR and its military intelligence GRU. Next action in line will be Crimea, Ukraine is the winner in this game all thanks to Western power standing their ground.
Now china will be wondering how their planned invasion of Taiwan will look because as you can see, Russia whose primary focus have been projecting power didn't want to take risk.
how is it bad? Lol. Somebody that can destroy ukraine in seconds? Somebody that can turn off the gas tap and half of europe will freeze to death. Somebody that macron begged for 6 hours, even biden called him several times. If the born ukraine well let them join NATO.

The real propaganda here is from Russia

First, Russia deployed troupes to surround Ukraine's borders in an intimating manner

Second, Putin held a press conference and threatened to end the world with a nuclear war.


The US and Great Britain had to build up the pressure to make the world see Russia is the instigator
