Nigeria has banned the export of oloshos to Russia

Dshocker:
I didn't see Nigeria on the list?

Our Yahoo boys should first free their Russian maga... Let's start from there.

ultimateprof:
We the Nigerians will soon place our sanction on Russia. We're yet to conclude on the kind of sanction.

LoL. Nothing someone will not read on Nairaland Were USSR and Russia seperate countries? Russia was Capital of USSR before the fall of the Iron curtain. USSR had total control of East Germany, so how were they seeking protection from German unification under the Warsaw Treaty? You just wrote plenty nonsense up there.

I did write nonsense.
Most of you think the world started immediately after the invention of YouTube.

I wrote "Both USSR and Russia" simply because before the fall of USSR, there was a demand for them to join Nato (after the dissolution of Warsaw Treaty Organization which only contain Soviet countries) and after the fall of USSR (now Russia) there was still a request to join Nato.
Please, read up on this before you come back and quote me.

There was a pact enacted in Warsaw which was called WTO and it was equivalent to Nato.

America spent almost 20 trillion dollars to prosecute war in middle east. It's part of the reason why their economy is in mess right now and they are/will continue to pay for it.
Now imagine $20 trillion dollar is invested into their economy

Lies they say, so that you believe them.

If they had succeeded in claiming these regions from the acclaimed terrorists, they would make ten times of the money they spent on that nation from natural resources.

Most Nations they attack are rich in natural resources and they have motives.

At least those sanctions will bring down the Russian economy and also affect their citizens

RUSSIAN CENTRAL BANK ORDERS MARKET PLAYERS TO REJECT FOREIGN CLIENTS' BIDS TO SELL RUSSIAN SECURITIES FROM 0400 GMT ON FEB 28 — CENTRAL BANK DOCUMENT SEEN BY REUTERS

bonechamberlain:
all international news sites are in one way or the connected to their country of origin. The important question to ask is are their news verifiable or real, watch or browse CNN and RT and make an "objective" analysis of the two.

But CNN is based in a country where people have freedom of expression. Russia attacks and kills journalists who have opposing views to Putin. That doesn't happen in America

Since Russia attacks and kills journalists, and RT bots spread messages on comment sections and forums, I don't trust them

I do agree though that it's good to listen to opposing views. Russian sources are just not trustworthy because it's only about what Putin wants the world to know, not the truth. Not the reality

Dude, you are still not making sense. Who are you referring to when you say "them"? Are you referring to Russia or USSR?
USSR set up the Warsaw pact in 1955 to counter NATO. So who was being pressured to join NATO?

I could see how you quickly ran to Google to update your knowledge, something you have once denied by posting
"USSR had total control of East Germany, so how were they seeking protection from German unification under the Warsaw Treaty? You just wrote plenty nonsense up there. grin grin"

The truth is, most of you are just quick to argue and it shows that u are not a good reader.

Now read slowly.

"Both USSR and Russia" simply because before the fall of USSR, there was a demand for them to join Nato (after the dissolution of Warsaw Treaty Organization which only contain Soviet countries)

And after the fall of USSR (now Russia) there was still a request to join Nato.
In summary, It means, USSR made a plea to join Nato and Russia did the same thing when Soviet union fell which is now Russia.

I don't know what is confusing in the statement above.

Where is Buhari, abeg come and place sanction on Russia, our own no go different.

More nonsense. Neither USSR nor Russia made a plea to join NATO. Russia was asked to join after the fall of USSR, but refused. Instead, it entered into a cooperative agreement with NATO,which was revoked in 2014 after Russia annexed Crimea. Fyi your comment is still confusing, and you can thank me later.

so you still think UNN fox and co are independent. Do you know that most Americans don't even know the real issue between Russia and Ukraine, they are only aware of the one sided version the US media dishes out to them. US and EU has banned Russian TV stations and in the past banned Iranian TV stations and you think they want you to hear the other side. So much for free speech.

Russia has attacked and killed journalists who opposed Putin for Christ sake! What makes you think that their outlets are trustworthy? I would've loved to watch those Russia channels if there were no history of journalist killings to get their own view, but I know that they are showing only what Putin wants the world to see. What's the difference between that and brainwashing or gaslighting?

What is the real issue between Russia and Ukraine btw? Isn't it that Russia doesn't want Ukraine to join NATO because they'll set up army base on the border between Russia and Ukraine? But Ukraine wants democracy and independence from Russia

Hisbah21:

dou you know how many people the US government and CIA has or attempted to kill for going against them, please make a research on that.

Read about the Monroe doctrine.

bonechamberlain:
So these are the sanction.
I believe countries like France and Germany aren't senseless. Especially France who still has an axe to grind with the U.S based on the Submarine deal with Australia hijacked by U.S and Britain.

How long can Germany cope, buying gas from America 10times the price Russia supplies to them. A German minister even termed the U.S disrespectful.

Russia would start dealing with China in Euros. I see Germany and France smiling happily as this would be a boost to the euro and their economies.

Unless they decide to be senseless and allow U.S to use them.

Calm down bro… China won’t deal any Euro with Russia. Xi Jinping isn’t that stupid. They’re still growing their economy to become the world power and you think they will be stupid to let Russia take them back? Same China that abstained from voting for Russia is the one you’re still talking about? I don’t even know how you people just reason.
There is no way Russia will win this “Stupid Putin’s war”. It is NEVER possible. You can’t tell me Russia has more nukes, tanks, planes and troops than all the NATO countries, they are only not interfering because they don’t want things to escalate as more innocent people would die.
Most of the Russian troops are not even happy with the invasion, but just following orders because not doing that is also death. No one wants war, those who have witnessed war will tell you what it feels like to be at war. It’s finance draining!
Lastly, everyone is gradually waiting for Putin to make the mistake of nuking Ukraine and let’s see what happens.

Fox news criticize Biden, because US is a full fledged democracy and Russia isn't trying to remove US presidents.

Unlike US trying day and night to remove presidents that don't do their bidden. Funding journalist and media practisioners against opposing countries. Journalist taking money from foreigners to criticize their country leaders is akin to treason.

Russia did intervene in the Trump and Clinton election. If not for Russia, Trump wouldn't have won

What makes you think that journalists that oppose Russia are funded by US? You think those people will risk their lives like that for money? They do so because they are passionate about their own views

US is not a saint, I know. But at least, they support democracy. How many Russia supporters on Nairaland dream of going to Russia instead of the West?
