Don't be deceived my brother. Those who own the world still lives there (mostly Jews) and Europe, while America will go down and power shifts to the east. These men will still rule, bkos at the end of the day the guy with the most money controls the outcomes.

Europe will forever remain the financial headquarters of the world, but power and military might will be in the east, when America goes down.

Why did you say that Europe has more money than America? Isn't America the wealthiest nation on earth? Maybe not cuz Europe combines wealth from many countries

Also, I don't think America will go down any time soon. Those with money and technology will be at the top. Europe is not so advanced when it comes to tech. US and China rule when it comes to technology

Europeans:
1. Don’t have to pay for Health care.
2. Most Europeans schools are free from preschool to PHD including in Russia
3. Millionaires in Europe don’t drive around with securities.
4. Don’t worry about food supply
5. Don’t worry about lost of jobs
6. Don’t worry about child support

Joining heads together, as in cooperation with other countries or smashing heads together, as in stirring up conflict between other countries?

Putin's army are on a peace keeping mission on the Republic of donbas(the newly created country). Everyone has right to self determination including the people of Republic of biafra. That is the main tenet of democracy. America and there puppet called nato must respect the choice of people of donbas.

Please I will urge you to study and learn before talking. You think this about america/ Russia? It means you are totally out of tune with reality. Like you mentioned population wise china have it which is not disputed but talk of wealth from intellectual property to financial leverage to banking leverage to actual standard of living and you thrashed Europe and america into the bin? When 2 biggest trading partners are america and europe? If those two were to go to hell, china would have been way richer because Russia to Africa will be the best alternative. But the sad thing is they are all part of means to an end for china. This forum as we see is now a case study for think tanks across the world, it's part of several variables that act as good source for local content from Nigeria. But please my friend I will urge you to study and speak constructively, 4 logical respondent have gotten a job from the forum. Everyone doesn't have to agree that's the beauty with having a conversation

God bless you.

Putins intentions are beyond NATO... Germany chancellor, already assured him that they will frustrate Ukraine's plan of joining NATO.... France's Emmanuel Macron also gave him same assurance but he still wants to destroy Ukraine.
I don't know of Putin's intentions beyond NATO, but NATO was formed because of Russia/Soviet Union and so Russians are scared of NATO near their border.

German Chancellor, French President and US President can assure Putin all they want on Ukraine not joining NATO, he will not trust them until it is put in writing, because Bush senior assured Gorbachev that NATO would not extend eastward. Look what happened since then.


This battle is between Democracy and Autocracy.
There is no true democracy in the West. In the US the last election showed that the people's vote could be overturned and the people that really matters are a few sets of electors.

Ukrainians and Russians are the same people, sharing same heritage, culture and traditions so if Ukraine should succeed as a democracy, Russians will demand to have a democratic settings which could spark massive protests like the Arab spring and threaten his power.

Putin knows this, that's why he wants to destroy Ukraine. The same applies to China, China will do everything possible to destroy a democratic Taiwan

If that happens, Putin is not the only one that will be affected, and just like the Arab spring the whole country could be destroyed (like Syria)

Sir if you study history, you'll understand that a certain man called Nathan Rothschild is one of the most powerful man that has ever lived, he grew his wealth to a point where he controls the bank of England in the 1800s, that time Britain was the world power.

So what this guy did was to use that wealth to also empowerment certain Captains of industries around the world but majorly banks. Almost every bank on the planet today have investor's who owns it, which is not subject to public view, if you check the number 1 bank in US (federal reserve), it's owned by private investors even though it is state controlled.

What I'm trying to say is that certain people have mastered the art of building generational wealth and controlling the globe. And England has the most money in the world, make your own research. Cheers

Hitler took part of Czechoslovakia on the guise of protecting ethnic Germans there and from there, he conquered the entire country

That's the same thing Putin has done..

You keep embarrassing yourself ! If Russia had similar ambitions to what Hitler and even present day us(through nato) nurse, Russia would never had allowed countries like Ukraine and Georgia to break out of old Soviet union. They allowed this, after the treacherous us and west promised not to admit former Soviet union countries into nato(which is basically controlled by us). Today, what do we have ? America had formed a similar union to the old Soviet union which they always critised in the past under the guise of nato. They broke there promise and are clearly trying to encircle Russia under the pretence of nato. When you admit a country into nato, it means us/nato can mount there missiles on the soil of that nation and that is very close to Moscow. In 1962 Soviet union mounted there missiles in cuba not us(about 90 miles from us shores) America started to wet there pants in fear, that Soviet missiles is close to there border and called for ussr to dismantle there missiles https://www.history.com/.amp/topics/cold-war/cuban-missile-crisis Can you now see the double standard set by America and the west ? They have taken most countries formerly under Soviet union and they have there missiles stationed over there. You might not know this, Russia is no Saint, but there is need to balance power. America do not want any world power like Russia and china that can stand up to them, and they feel threatened by those countries. Do you actually know that UK and France actually backed nazi Germany invasion of czechoslovakia and Poland actually participated in that exercise ?

See this long pile of trash u just wrote grin
Its obvious u don't know the reasons for the crash of the Berlin wall and the fall of the soviet union..

It was mainly because the country was an utter failure.. Massive unemployment, insecurity and lots of political struggles which was why the country broke up

Also for ur info, Russia fought with Georgia and other former USSR states in a bid to return to USSR such as Chechen, Ingushetia.. The ones they conquered joined Russia, the ones they failed maintained independence

Today, what do we have ? America had formed a similar union to the old Soviet union they always critised in the past under the guise of nato.

Oga... France and other NATO countries maintained that they'll try to frustrate Ukraine effort to join NATO

Besides.. This clearly shows that the Russia u are supporting doesn't show respect for the sovereignty of other nations. And that's the country u are trying to paint for us as all saint

What are u saying?

Are u jealous that America has the support of most former USSR states ?

Were dey forced?

U suppose dey try think for ur self...

If America had not posed as a country with the better option and benefits than Russia, would the former USSR states support them?

Try dey use ur brain.. The fact sey u day try to be different nor mean say u wise

Do you actually know that UK and France actually backed nazi Germany invasion of czechoslovakia and Poland actually participated in that exercise ?

Most historians have maintained that the main reason UK and France backed was out of fear of confronting Hitler and starting another war so they gave the support against their wish..

Infact the conquest of Czechoslovakia was a sign that the treaty of Versailles of no longer regarded by Germany and the allies refrained from using force to force Germany into line

Fears of 'World War 3'

As tensions between Russia and the West continue to rise, many fear the crisis in Ukraine could develop into a wider armed conflict.

Russian president Vladimir Putin's decision to order troops over the Russian border marks the start of a much-anticipated invasion of Ukraine, as the world holds a collective breath, waiting to see how the West responds.

Officials have warned that escalation of the crisis may see the bloodiest conflict in Europe since World War Two, leading to thousands of civilian deaths and sparking a significant refugee crisis in Europe.

Sanctions targeting gas pipeline

Putin's move into Ukraine caused Germany to pause work on the multi-billion-pound Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline.

The undersea pipeline, meant to ferry natural gas from Russia to northern Germany, is owned by a subsidiary of Russia’s state-owned Gazprom.

Berlin has been reluctant to impose sanctions that would affect Nord Stream 2.

At a press conference, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said that “the situation today is fundamentally different and therefore, in light of recent events, we must also reassess this situation … also with regard to Nord Stream 2.”
