Russia must hands off, this is not Russia's business. Russia bringing in Wagner there is uncalled for, Wagner forces should only help in fighting insecurity and terrorism. Russia must instruct Wagner forces not to or never to confront ECOWAS forces. If Russia disrespect ECOWAS they become our enemy. Putin should not play games with ECOWAS. Enough is enough.

Vladimir Putin, you can not be playing same games you accuse West of playing by using Ukraine as a proxy base, this is West Africa, not Baltic region or eastern Europe. Vladimir Putin, we will resist Wagner forces and chase them from Africa if they plan to destabilize west Africa.

Struggling in Ukraine ?

You watch too much western propaganda western news…

If Putin wants to blow up the entire Ukraine in one day he can surely do it …

You don’t know they were USSR before ? It’s like killing his own people if he decides to use brute force…

It would have been different if Putin was fighting against some western or Asian countries …

You are not supposed to reply that one. He is a product of western propaganda.

War is not new to humanity, it has always been that way and will continue to be that way. Let’s teach Niger a lesson.
it's ecowas self... Not Nigeria allowing the coup to succeed ll send a bad signal after Mali Burkina Faso guinea now Niger who knows the next one... Soldiers should just face their primary duty and allow Politics for Politicians... Russia is against the coup yet don't want intervention that's hypocrisy if u ask me... At the end the European power houses ll sell weapons to various conflicts group

Are you aware that the Russian economy for the very first time, according to world bank, is now the 5th biggest economy in the world replacing Germany which was the best in Europe?
Russia just sent a massive gigantic space jet into space heading for the moon costing billions of dollars to put up. Continue to believe at your own expense the propaganda that Russia is on the slide.

Stop hyping that shithole!

Which economy does Russia have. Pull up your chat from a reputable source!

I may not like Putin but truth be told, that won't be the case if the opponent is another country other than Ukraine or a former member of USSR.

They may face resistance or experience damages too but he will be more cruel than he is in the case of Ukraine.

I understand that psychologically it is very difficult for you to come to terms with the fact that the Russian economy is the first in Europe and the fifth in the world today, but it is so.

Russia is at war, Russia has the most sanctions imposed on it in the world (14,200), and yet, the Russian economy has overtaken the German one by the end of 2022 and continues to grow.

You can google the World Bank data yourself and check my words, this is open information.

according to the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank, the list of Top-5 (GDP, PPP) economies in the world looks like this:
1. China
2. USA
3. India
4. Japan
5. Russia

In Europe:

1. Russia
2. Germany
3. France
4. Great Britain
5. Italy

Algeria buys weapons from Russia (a long-standing and stable buyer) and has the most powerful army in the region. The President of Algeria came to Moscow in June (separately from the Russia-Africa summit). The chief of the Algerian General Staff flew to Moscow to visit the Russian military in July. Algeria has closed the skies to French military and cargo planes. Algeria announced that it would defend its interests in the Sahel during the invasion of Niger.

Russia benefits from any scenario.
The ECOWAS military invasion of Niger is particularly beneficial to Russia.

I have already written here, on the forum, in another thread, why.

I wonder why many people here at the forum attach so much importance to the ruble-dollar exchange rate and "worry" about the Russian economy and Russian citizens.

The dollar exchange rate within the country means almost nothing to the population. The ruble is not pegged to the dollar, domestic prices for food, electricity, gas, transport, and the vast majority of goods such as clothing and shoes do not depend on the dollar exchange rate.

Smart people have not kept their savings in dollars / euros for a long time (due to a bunch of sanctions such as disconnection from swift, a ban on the import of cash currency into the country, etc.).

After February 2022, there was an increase in prices for some types of building materials, electronics (=laptops, servers, video cards, and so on), cars, and some medicines.

But since then, Russia has started trading with China, India and many other countries not for the dollar, but for national currencies, so now prices for many medicines/cars/electronics do not depend on the dollar.


And the devaluation of the ruble against the dollar is now beneficial to Russian exporters. Who pay a lot to the Russian budget.

I remind you that Russia is waging war not for the money of private individuals, but for the state budget and the war costs money.

The Russian government at the beginning of the year stated that the most optimal dollar exchange rate is 80-90 rubles, but right now the dollar costs 98 rubles.

What is the tragedy, I don't understand?

Even the most anti-Putin economists in Russia admit that only wealthy and very wealthy citizens will suffer from the fall of the ruble.

Well, real whiskey, for example, will soar in price. Or marbled beef from New Zealand and other exclusive Western goods exotic for Russia.

In Russia, completely different things are creating problems now.

The rise in oil prices on the world market is always a problem for us. Because if oil is rising, the price of gasoline is rising==> the price of food is rising.

Did you know that Ukraine has lost over 350k soldiers and Russia has lost barely 50k men.

Do you think Europe will report these?

The only people crying out are Ukrainians counting their dears but BBC and the others are turning their cameras away from that because if they tell you, then everyone will know the truth.


During the BRICS meeting with Africa, Putin showed African leaders the peace agreement documents that they offered Ukraine at the start of the war.
Zelenskyy was about to sign but Boris Johnson came to Ukraine and told the idiot not to sign because NATO will fund them.

Now look at where the war has led Ukraine.
Russia has grown to be the 5th most powerful economy on the planet today.

Black Rock just got a contract of 500billion dollars to help rebuild Ukraine.
NATO has refused to encourage Ukraine to accept peace.

Zelenskyy is a Jew who listens to orders from the Jews ruling the world today and this war plays deep into history of world wars.


You are very ignorant of 90% of what is going on but here you are saying rubbish and laughing... Omo I sorry for you.

Better don't shame yourself in public with your ignorance.
