The system of government adopted by Russia is exactly like Nigeria with a solid touch of communism. They practise paddy paddy government Just like Nigeria. It's call Oligachaism whereby some trusted President Putin's friends are pampers and giving juicing contracts and means of being wealthy more than ordinary citizens. The economy of Russia is very terrible before the war,. Infact, Russia is not a wealthy country but powerful militarily cos of the past USSR accumulation of military hardwares etc....but the present New Russia ain't rich at all except some selected government made men like Abrahamovich etc that are closer to Putin.

You're right there! ✓
When you have few rich people exercising power, the society is weak. Their system allows few to be more powerful. Many Russians don't support what Putin and his bunch of oligarchs are doing and if they speak up, they are pursued, arrested and locked up - just like it is in Nigeria. Putin is going down.

Meanwhile Putin is still drinking vodka and preparing to launch a final assault on Kiev.

NATO can end everything by just assuring Russia that they won't expand east and all this will end quicker than it began, but they won't.

Before quoting me, please educate yourself about the Cuban missile crisis when US almost went to war with Cuba because it was getting too close to the Soviets.


Almost and going to war na the same thing?

Ok.

That one no hard

What the British are doing is totally unfair to those private businessmen but Russia could already seize assets of foreign businesses in Russia. That's no news. See what they did to Bill Browder's Hermitage Asset Management. Or Vkontakte Pavel Durov.

Once his people are severely suffering because of him, they will hate him automatically and that marks the beginning of his downfall.

NATOs are very good manipulators. Putin foolishly played into their trap.

You have a poor understanding about the situation. NATO is not manipulating anyone here. Russia is the one pushing itself to disaster. As the popular saying goes if you don't want heat then don't go to the kitchen. Before now Russia have been trading with the world. Its people have had very big businesses outside Russia. But putin blew all that up for his ego. He was thinking that Ukraine was capable to invade Russia if they joined NATO. But that was a miscalculation because to invade Russia, you must be ready to bear the impact of the nukes that Russia has in its arsenal and no nation wants that.

While I condemn Putin's foolish decision to invade Ukraine, I can see that the west are hypocrites. These assets they go about seizing do the owners have proven links with Putin? Are they saying it's a crime for self made billionaires to be with any partnership with their government, even if such predated the invasion? Damn the self righteous UK. They do this not because they love Ukraine, but to fulfill their agenda. Shocking behavior!

Go to Baltic state and you will see how Russians there can die for Putin

Thank you. As at 2020 if I could remember his approval rating was about 70% or more that is even more than any american president in modern history. Biden is between 30% to 40% at the moment yet the western media will tell you that he is not popular in Russia. He is well loved by his people ofcourse there will always be people who don't like him.But he is far more popolar than any western politician alive in his country compare to theirs.

At the end of the day a new world order will emerge. The West is just shooting itself in the foot. Oligarchs as they call them and all illicit billions generated will no longer be invested in their climes. What are they investigating? They already know who owns what.
However people like Abramovich and co will no longer invest in Europe it will go the the East or Africa and lastly south America.

Banning Russia from SWIFT will enhance their own alternatives which they have started using.

This I have seen.

Even DW that is anti Putin have said the sanctions will increase Putin rating as anyone who will come up against Putin now will be see by Russians as West agent.

His popularity just increased because the west shoot theirselves by banned RT.
Banned RT played Russia the story that they are under attack by the west same thing China did to YouTube and google.

Cuba, North Korea and Iran have been under sanctions for a while. They're still standing.

And u forget that the sanctions they faced wasn’t up to what Russia is facing now. The sanctions for Russia are a typical ground breaker. And if a country like Cuba or Iran had received these types of sanctions, they won’t be able to breath again

"Sentiments don't win wars, Russia have retaliated by banning over 200 commodities exported to the West..If the West and US are good at throwing sanctions then they should also be ready to face hunger and starvation...

Gas prices have skyrocketed in the US and West, food prices are already on the increase in the US and West...now you see no one is winning this useless war...

It's not who is right in a war but who is left...

Do you know what would be Russia's killer punch to Europe?...If Putin decides to cut off gas supply to Europe, the whole of Europe will return to stone age quicker than any body would predict, Europe depends so much on Russian gas...

Most of u Putin fans sound very unintelligent. U ended up contradicting yourself. I’m happy u said “the US almost invaded Cuba” that means they didn’t at all. So why is Russia invading Ukraine based on that scenario?? Even during the missile crisis did the US bomb Cuba?? So why is Russia bombing Ukraine??

US changed their mind about nuking Cuba because they were concerned that Russia may nuke them in return.

But they still made it clear they were going to war with Cuba unless the nukes were removed and even launched a naval blockade of Cuba in preparation of the assault.

The US president spoke with the Soviet president who agreed to remove the nukes on the condition that US removed the nukes it recently placed in Turkey and Italy.

US agreed but they knew they were going to trick the Soviets.

(Mind you, all these happened within 2 weeks)

The Soviets removed their nukes from Cuba while the US removed theirs from Turkey and Italy.

Today, US nukes are back in Turkey and Italy while Soviet union and Russia never returned their nukes to Cuba.

Strangely, Cuba was against the Soviets removing their nukes and was ready to go to war against the US.

The Soviets disagreed and had to do the hard work of convincing them to allow them take the nukes. This issue later damaged Cuba-Soviet relations as the Cubans were disappointed with the Soviets.

Late tb Joshua has said it 8 years ago that he saw Russia fighting a battle and other nations gathered together and squeezed him. With this one that is happening not only other nations but also Russians themselves who has been made to suffer heavy sanctions as a result of this needless war created by "Putin" will jointly bring that prophecy into fulfilment.
