What stopped them from returning to Cuba as per USA breaking the promise?
Why didn't they go same way as the USA in the Ukraine case

You're now talking from both sides of your mouth:

Your question should be "Why did US break the agreement?"

And not "Why did Soviet/Russia not default when US defaulted?"

If Russia had refused to remove the missiles and risked war, I'm sure you would have called them the aggressor.

They did and you're still trying to put them in the wrong for doing what they agreed to do.

And we're seeing the same play out here:

All Russia needs is assurance from NATO that they won't accept Ukraine into their fold.

Ukraine can ask to join NATO but NATO shouldn't take them.

That's all.

Mind you, this issue has been ongoing for over 20 years now. It just turned to war because NATO wanted to take Ukraine this time.

Also, Ukraine's position has always been tied to their presidents. Every president is always either Pro-Russian and anti-NATO or Pro-NATO and anti-Russian.

Stop the looting Britain ! Ukrainians are dying in their hundreds and you're here behaving like bandits ! You guys ain't helping Ukraine in any form. Kyiv is already encircled by the Russian forces and the hitherto relatively peaceful western Ukraine is now under heavy artillery shelling and aerial bombardment. The Russian forces are in that axis now which means the country is being attacked from the north,south,east and now west ! It is just a matter of time/days for the whole of Ukraine to be run over by the Putin's military.

How does seizing of Russian Oligarchs properties in UK stop the killings of Ukrainians and the mind boggling destruction of their country ? Why should the innocent Russians be punished for what they know nothing about ? Is it now a crime to be wealthy and invest such wealth in foreign countries ? The case of Chelsea's Abramovich is particularly painful ! I thought they said sports don't mix with politics,right ?

Any country that's urging Ukrainians to fight on without committing its own military and men to the war is simply wicked ! Ukrainian government has been shouting and begging for air cover and military equipment for days now,the flimsy excuse has been they can't get it 'cause they ain't NATO member ! I wish Zelensky could open his eyes and see that it's his country that's being destroyed and his people being killed ! Must Ukraine be a NATO member ? Certainly,NATO membership isn't worth the lives of innocent Ukrainians that have been cut short and it isn't worth the massive destruction of the country either !

I meant avoiding the West in business terms.
Invest at home.
Even if your country sanctions you, there is every possibility the next ruler ship with have a different view and lift those sanctions.

That’s why I laugh when some people ask why the likes of Dangote or Otedola do not significant investments in the US or the UK. These men clearly believe their assets could be seized at any time

Allow matured minds sink in what I've said.
If you are not a kid yourself, you wouldn't miss the part I said " invest in your country", if you are matured enough you would know that investing in your country, is a direct boycott of your godly West.

The world has chosen to be lazy and let the West feed and milk her.
This is the price the Russian oligarchs are paying today.

NATO can end everything by just assuring Russia that they won't expand east and all this will end quicker than it began, but they won't.

Before quoting me, please educate yourself about the Cuban missile crisis when US almost went to war with Cuba because it was getting too close to the Soviets.


Almost went to War..... I love this. Putin is not managing the situation in Ukraine well.

Is it that people don't realized that the US and the West gave rise to modern civilization?
China, India, most of Aisa and Africa cannot be what it is today without those two.
Everyone have their lapses. The West and the US have their short comings, but then they remain the best option as the world's watch dog.

I see you are the back and forth type, so this is my last reply to you.
If you situate your business in your country and grow her to a stand out brand, even your Almighty West will come to your shores to do business.
If you are an investor ( which I doubt you can ever be) with the witch hunts on Russian businesses in the UK and US, you would think twice before positioning the heart and soul of your business there.

No one wants to have his assets seized like this...its your sweat

For people that keep quoting the Cuban crisis a way of justifying Russia's invasion tend to completely miss the most apparent lesson of the Cuban crisis: Kennedy and Nikita Kushrev both realised they couldn't afford to go to war and instead made compromises through back channels in the interest of peace. Negotiation is and remains a far better tool than war.

True but it appears that Ukraine downt think the same way.

This issue has been on the table for over 20 years and Russia has held back until this monent.

At the end of the day a new world order will emerge. The West is just shooting itself in the foot. Oligarchs as they call them and all illicit billions generated will no longer be invested in their climes. What are they investigating? They already know who owns what.
However people like Abramovich and co will no longer invest in Europe it will go the the East or Africa and lastly south America.

Banning Russia from SWIFT will enhance their own alternatives which they have started using.

This I have seen.
Please, desist from commenting on this issue. Your comment shows this is way beyond your comprehension. Just stick to local politics, there is no shame in it.

This is wrong in every aspect. You don't take people's private property because of their government.

Facebook suddenly wants to determine who we should hate.


For those who applaud this. When they come for you tomorrow, don't complain.

Russia is not at war with the UK neither is Abrahmovich.

Once his people are severely suffering because of him, they will hate him automatically and that marks the beginning of his downfall.
