Lol. When we talk about the hypocrisy of the US, some dumb idiots will attribute it to lack/denial of visa. How do you tell the world that a certain government is bad and that people should avoid buying oil from them so as to starve them of funds from invading smaller countries, but you then go behind to increase your oil purchase from the same country? Isn't that pure hypocrisy at play? Why not stick to your principles and totally starve them of funds as you have proposed? Some morons will still come here to defend this as if their unbilical cord was shipped to America at birth. For those who think most of us that criticize America, hate the US, hear this: we don't hate the US; we simply do not subscribe to the double standards and their leaders engage in. He who comes to equity must come with clean hands.

Most of these guys see America as the Christian Caliphate! Observe it, many of the US boot licckers are religious fanatics.

this is very sad.

Zelensky is not a wise leader. the world knows how powerful Russia is, but the only one that doesn't know is Zelensky.

imagine if it was Nigeria doing something like this to Benin, nothing like sanctions, the world will annihilate us.
but they can't do it to Russia, because Russia is very big and powerful. but Zelensky doesn't know or believe it.

instead of making peace, he is telling people who are not strong to fight and die. there is nothing glorious about death.

when your big brother at home wants to beat you, because you did something wrong, or he feels you wronged him,
there is a way you speak to him to make him calm and stop. something like.
I know you're my big brother, you're bigger and stronger than me, we're family, we aren't supposed to be fighting each
other, what will our parents think, and don't forget when brother fight to the death, a stranger inherits their properties.
we are supposed to love each other if not for ourselves, for our parents and our family name. please calm down and tell
me where I went wrong so that I can learn from you and do better.


there is no big brother that you'll speak to like this that won't calm down. if he wanted to kill you, he might just slap you
and stop

How, use Nuclear weapons? lol.

The question is, why is Ukraine winning and Putin retreating? Why is Russia unable to defeat a small country like Ukraine?

Ode Putin saw the death trap in Kyiv and quickly withdrew like a coward..

As we speak, Putin is retreating because he underestimated small Ukraine. 5 Russian generals were killed by Ukrain in less than 3 weeks, unheard of in any war..

Small Ukrain are using Russian troops and hardware for target practice,

Men are you following the war or you are following CNN? Ukraine is winning how? Whose land has been bombed the most? Who lost more citizens to bullets, missiles and shells? Who begging NATO for intervention? Who is sending innocent civilians into battle? Who is killing it's own people and staging a massacre? Who has a refugee crisis? Ma guy wake up from that sleep it is no longer funny ohhh.

Yes I know that the west is very hypocritical. I’m just saying this news is a lie. US is not buying Russian oil as of now. The last shipments left a month ago. A lie is still a lie at the end of the day.

Nairalanders who their placenta was buried in the US won’t like this, they think US can do without any country but hear me well Russia play a big role in the world crude oil sales and natural gas sales, any attempt to cripple them will boomerang, Newton's third law in full swing.

Russian oligarchs/ bussiness men ..since Ukraine and Russia are like brothers and sisters...same culture, traditiona and lifestyle..it's now I know the importance of Russia to the world... Russia supplying oil and gas to USA, European countries and other countries..if Russia stop the supply of this oil and gas to USA/ European countries these countries will suffer...then why is Ukraine an enemy to Russia where you can benefit all these things

You don't know that Ukraine is beating Putin out of the cities he invaded and occupied because you only eat and breathe Putin propaganda.

Why is Putin is winning, why is small Ukrain still fighting and it's Putin that is retreating and leaving Ukraine.?

Putin gave Ukraine an ultimatum to surrender Mariupol, but Zelensky said Bleep you to Putin and today, Putin could not do anything and Ukrainians are still standing and fighting Russians in Mariupol.


Ukraine defeated Putin in "Irpin, Bucha, Gostomel and the whole Kyiv region were liberated and now completely under the control of the Ukrainians.

List the city that is under Russian control on Ukraine?

The useless and incompetent Russian army did not even make it to the Ukrainian capital because Putin the coward saw the death trap and refused to go in, Ukrainians were ready for a bloody insurgent war to send Russian body bags back to Moscow.

After 5 weeks or fighting, Putin not only couldn't defeat small Ukraine but is actually rubbing from Ukraine.

Putin and his weak military are grossly overrated, this is what Ukraine just showed the world, Russia's only gain in this war is the killings of civilians, but at the end of the day, they will send him to the Hague for war crimes trial.

I know he won't surrender, but they will find him guilty and anytime he steps out of Russia, they will arrest and send him to prison.

Putin as you know him today is finished..

Meanwhile, US Treasury has set deadline to end deals on oil and coal imports from Russia until April 22

https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202204/1257500.shtml

US didn't wrong nor betray it's allies. Other European Countries are still importing Russian Gas and Oil, except few countries with lesser populations.
The deadline set was very explicit. UK seizes was able to reduce it's oil and gas from Russia to 5%, Germany, Italy, France and other European Countries are still buying with serious search for replacement and upscaling so as to wean their countries of Russian oil and gas.

Moreover, the article sources were from Russia and China so what do you expect. Chinese were program to be jealous of US but 95% of rich Chinese wanted to train their children in American Universities.

Every individual is selfish when it comes to self preservation, which applies to countries. With all it's "negative baggages" US as the World power is still better than having neither China nor Russia. Every Chinese loans on infrastructure contain Mezzanine clause which give China right to control over it in case of contravention or default. That is why China is taking over certain infrastructure in Zambia and other Africa Countries. While none of the American loan comes with that nastiest idea. China that is mirroring everything American except human rights, human dignity and fight against racism is the one condemning US.
