Russia war planner u do well o. Let them send 100% military now. How u tke know say Ukraine dn beg tire ? Stop adding too much Maggi. Let Russia attach any NATO countries and if there's no retaliation, I will take Dem serious. Putti just they opress Ukraine cos they don't have nukes and they have bigger military that all. Na Russiana go suffer am last last.

Libya did not attack any NATO country, why was it attacked by NATO? Hahahahahahaha

Ukraine has been begging NATO to fight for her but NATO has refused. It is everywhere on the internet. The president has complained.

NATO invaded Afghanistan, Afghanistan did not attack any NATO contry na.
So, u see, u don't really need to attack any NATO country for NATO to come for ur head.

NATO just can't fight Russia. Period. U just can't wake up and fight 2 most powerul country in the world. That position is not by chance. Russia is not after any NATO country. She has a war with Ukraine. And Russia has warned that if any NATO country should send in troops, that NATO country has declared war against Russia.
Since NATO wasn't attacked in Libya and NATO quickly went to fight there and killed their leader, NATO should do same here now if they born them well. grin

Very simple

All the countries in NATO, how much have they benefited from it?

They only become US puppet
I'm fact, some of them can't even fulfill their full budgetary allocation to the organization.

Zelensky should have been smart and avoided escalation.

The now claim they have killed 9,000 Russian soldiers while they're the ones going down.

The Russians haven't committed their full combat troops and equipment presently in Ukraine in combat against them even with them firing from Civilian areas and using civilians as human shield.

Ukraine need to seek for peace and end this conflict before it fully escalate beyond what they can handle.

Peace is always better than War.
The whole world knows that, if not for civilian consideration and other factors, it won't take Russia 24hrs to overrun Ukraine and take it over.

Zelensky should be smart enough to seek peace. Those he thinks would work for him have done their worse and Russia is still pushing.

The Nigeria's Army and police recruitment exercise has often been avoided by Nigerians, the question now is, Why are Nigerians rushing to enlist in Ukraine to fight Russia? Are Nigerians not having enough problems at home? Is the rush a ploy to escape Nigeria's sick and terrible security challenges?

What is the aim of Putin? To capture the entire Ukraine?

No. To prevent Ukraine from joining NATO. This will require a regime change in Ukraine.

You're correct but it's like some people or countries are urging him to continue thinking sanctions will make Putin/Russia back down.

Rather than back down, the Russians are going harder on the Ukrainians.

The US and other Western economies started to feel the effects of the sanctions they put on Russia.

I won't be able to post the details but check the below analyst...

How much oil does the US get from Russia?
Russian exports account for eight percent of the global oil supply, so if the market is disrupted, how badly could this hit the US?

By Al Jazeera Staff
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has triggered severe economic sanctions and condemnation from the United States and its allies.
Oil prices have surged due to concerns about disruptions to global supply, eight percent of which comes from Russian exports, leading traders to seek out alternative sources in an already tight market.
The spiralling prices are a particular concern for the US, the world’s biggest oil consumer, where inflation is already running at a four-decade high.
How much oil does the US import from Russia?
The US imports Russian oil, but it is not highly dependent on the country for its supplies.
In 2021, the US imported an average of 209,000 barrels per day (bpd) of crude oil and 500,000 bpd of other petroleum products from Russia, according to the American Fuel and Petrochemical Manufacturers (AFPM) trade association.
This represented three percent of US crude oil imports and one percent of the total crude oil processed by US refineries. By contrast, the US imported 61 percent of its crude oil from Canada, 10 percent from Mexico, and six percent from Saudi Arabia in the same year.
According to the AFPM, imports of Russian crude oil have increased since 2019, when the US imposed sanctions on Venezuela’s oil industry. US refiners also temporarily boosted Russian imports last year after Hurricane Ida disrupted oil production in the Gulf of Mexico.
How would restrictions on Russian oil exports affect the US?
There are two potential scenarios to consider, according to analysts.
“The first is with the oil supply, and the short answer is it would not affect the US that much,” Adam Pankratz, a professor at the University of British Columbia’s Sauder School of Business, told Al Jazeera.
“If it really goes drastic the US has a strategic petroleum reserve,” he said.
However, according to Pankratz, there is also a broader economic effect to consider.
“If the US stopped importing Russian oil, that would mean that likely many other countries would also no longer be importing Russian oil, and that would make a very tight oil market already much tighter, and that would drive up the price of oil and that in turn can drive inflation, which in turn can affect the US economy,” Pankratz said.
While the sanctions against Russia have not specifically targeted its energy supply, the measures do cover banks and financial institutions, which indirectly hampers the country’s ability to export oil and other fuels.
On Wednesday, crude prices surged to more than $110 a barrel, posing a challenge for governments trying to curb rising inflation.
“While there aren’t sanctions in place [against the oil market] we are seeing a lot of self sanctioning,” Pankratz said.
“So banks and traders … they don’t know exactly what’s going to get caught up in the Russian sanctions, and they don’t want to risk getting an investigation for having imported or dealt with a Russian company when they shouldn’t have been doing that.”
Pankratz said Russian oil and gas “haven’t really been moving” in recent days.
“It’s not sanctioned fully, but it’s having trouble being sold, because people are nervous [about violating sanctions],” he said.
What will be the political fallout of rising oil prices for the Biden administration?
Inflation in the US rose at an annual rate of 7.5 percent in January, the Bureau of Labor Statics said, the fastest pace since July 1982.
That translates into a $276 increase in monthly expenses for the average American household, according to a recent study by Moody’s Analytics.
The war in Ukraine is likely to only make the situation worse.
Rising prices have already dealt a blow to US President Joe Biden’s approval ratings, which are in the doldrums after sinking to a record low of 33 percent in January. Further increases in inflation would further weaken the president’s standing ahead of crucial mid-term elections in November.
Pankratz said rising inflation could result in “enormous” political consequences.
“People tend to vote on what we would call the kitchen table issues,” Pankratz said. “What’s the price of gas? How much can we afford to go on holiday? Families are asking themselves if they are richer this year … and in that regard, inflation could be a serious problem.”

A line by Tupac Shakur?

Tell me something else please
As much as I loved Tupac too...it was still a dumb thing for him to say. Yes, US spends a lot of money to acquire sophisticated weapons and train their soldiers but it's the reason they have one of the best, if not the best army in the world. The dumb statement was saying they don't feed the poor!
