bro it doesn't work that way, or do you think it's Nigeria, u can't just pull out investment and sack all workers just like that, u can only sell your shares but the company and economy continues running,
example is ShopRite Nigeria, they left 9ja long ago but all ShopRite outlet in Nigeria are still functioning and workers fully intact..
Secondly Russian sale from oil and gas alone is very huge despite all sanctions placed against her.
And thirdly how is possible to isolate a country that spawn all the way from Asia to Europe, a country with scares natural resources,, up till today, USA still buy uranium from Russia for their nuclear reactors, and yet they claim Russia is isolated

Of course Russia is isolated but for China. US buys 8% of her uranium needs from Russia. Why don't you ask yourself why Russia keeps selling them that 8% - a country that has ganged up worldwide sanctions against you!

Also note Mercedes pulled out because they could no longer procure parts

Can you list one thing that the west can produce that Russia cannot produce?... Just one thing?... A country that can make space craft to take people to space and back and yet you think say dem no fit make Mercedes Benz...just wow... Honestly, if you want a good car that will work for you please go for a Honda or Toyota, as Mercedes and BMW is overrated in my opinion.

Oh by the way have you realised the people fighting Russia collectively are the same colonial masters that ruined Africa but in this case they are ganged up against Russia?... What does that tell you?...

Anyways, eurosia is the future... As you see millions of nigerians going to the west today for security and jobs... In the next 5 to 10 years millions of nigerians will be leaving the west and Nigeria to Eurasia for jobs and security... Turkey will be the gateway to Russia and China...watch and learn.

Learn how to start speaking chinese or Russian if you want to be ahead of the game.

Iran’s automotive industry is the third most active industry of the country, after its oil and gas industry, accounting for 10% of Iran's GDP and 4% of the workforce (700,000 person).[1][2][3]

In December 2008, the Tiba/Miniator debuted the Tiba with a 4-cylinder gas engine and ABS, averaging 7 liters of gasoline per 100 kilometers and putting out 80 PS (59 kW) with a displacement of 1,500 cc. The price quoted at the time of its launch was less than 100 million rials (US$10,000). The car was designed in country and produced with the services of some 122 local manufacturers. 15,000 Tiba were to be produced in 2009. Production over the succeeding three years was to reach 200,000 per year by a new subsidiary, Kashan SAIPA.[16] The Tiba is expected to replace the Kia Pride. The share of Tiba/Miniator in SAIPA's exports will be about 20 percent by 2011.<[17] The model was originally named Miniator but was later changed to Tiba (gazelle).[18]

In 2012, a pick-up version





This doesn’t back up your claim that Kia engines are made in Iran. It says the Iranian manufactured car that no one outside of Iran has ever heard of.
Those trash vehicles can’t be sold worldwide because of sanctions but also because they can’t even pass an emissions test just like Russia is now manufacturing third and fourth class cars with NO AIRBAGS OR SAFETY FEATURES. They can’t get parts used for safety features because of sanctions and they are too technologically behind to develop their own.
Have you seen a TIBA car close up and in person? No. Have you ever heard anyone say, “Gee my guy, I want to buy a TIBA”
You guys have so much false pride in Russia, false pride that Russians don’t even have in their own country. The false and unwarranted pride causes you guys to make things up.

These guys have forgotten how fast Russia kicked out the Nigerians who tried to stay in Russia after the World Cup. They were deported in a few short days whereas a Western country would’ve allowed them to stay much longer, even while they applied for asylum. Russia treats its own citizens like animals so think about how they would treat a mass influx of Nigerians.

Russia is a science and tech base country.....such countries cannot be underestimated (and u thinking sanction is enough to release dem is even funny)

With all d Chinese manufacturing capabilities, russia is still ahead of dem, from nuclear reactor, to civilian jet engine, to nano tech, to pure science, so many areas

Russia get alternative to nearly all usa tech, fom glonass, to yandex (one of the few country capable of development search engine and not relying all google

Russia can’t even develop and manufacture medicines for their citizens. They aren’t science or tech based, the only thing they produce en mass are weapons.

Russia has no humanitarian efforts that anyone can benefit from yet these guys can’t understand why countries side with the US. The US isn’t bullying anyone but the presidents of those countries know that if their country is hit with a natural disaster, Russia won’t be sending food, medicine, or anything else and no one can blame them for not seeing stars when they look at Russia.They are not stupid.

The pharmaceutical industry is why a lot of americans are bankkrupt... the fun fact is in Russia if you are sick and need medicine you get it fro free, but in america it's not free (people are in debt because they cannot pay medical bills... people from the usa go to canada and mexico for health care and cheap medicine).

Russia will save African countries from hand of the West, Russia is not interested in colonizing or stealing from Africa

The list you inserted makes no sense. The US/NATO doesn’t want to see German and Russian partnerships? Maybe because Germany is a huge NATO country just like most of the Eastern European countries?
Russia also is not interested in helping Africa, don’t forget that. Russia won’t colonize or steal from Africa for several reasons.
1. Russia doesn’t have the money.
2. They have no interest and sees no gains in colonizing Africa.
3. Too much work needs to be done in Africa, much of which hasn’t been done in Russia.
4. Putin hates Africans.

Russia REGISTERED the first COVID vaccine but struggled to vaccinate their population, now make that make sense. Russian sources admitted that. How many Covid vaccines did they send to you in Nigeria? None? How much food and monetary Aid does Russia send Nigeria?
So many falsehoods. Americans have Medicaid that kicks in for the poor, ask Uninsured Nigerians who have fallen ill here in the US. They were picked up by ambulances and received treatment just as a person with money would’ve been. If they received a medical bill and couldn’t pay it, they weren’t put in jail or punished.
Drug companies in Canada and Mexico make cheaper versions of American drugs so why not save money and order it, especially since American companies still make money off the licensing of the Canadian and Mexican versions. The medicine you claim Russia gives for free, guess WHERE it’s manufactured? In America! Russia doesn’t develop OR manufacture Pharmaceuticals. When was the last time you took medicine developed or made in Russia?
Now, question to your fun fact: does Russia give you some of the free healthcare and medicine that you’re bragging on? Last I checked, the US was sending the bulk of medicine and aid to your country.

They released a COVID vaccine without clinical trials which is why it was a failure. Even so, they Produced it but couldn’t supply enough for their own population.
Rocket engines? BOEING makes rocket engines for the US Space program. last time I checked, Boeing was never a Russian company, especially since it was born and made in America. Have you ever heard of SPACE X?

Even if Russia made the world’s only rocket engines (which they don’t), the world can live without space travel.
Russia can manufacture rocket engines but not regular antibiotics and drugs to treat common chronic illnesses? That’s pretty crazy.
The world outside of Russia can survive just fine without rocket engines, especially since there are hundreds of thousands of engineers who are literally Rocket Scientists living in the West. Couple that with the number of manufacturing plants.
