This war is just revealing how big Russia is.

So imagine Finland, a European country cannot generate its own electricity which means they are on Niger Republic and Benin third world level.

Nigeria is better than a lot of countries but our inferiority complex won't let us see it.
they do but not enough,they got just 10% from Russia

Simon Ekpa to declare sit at home every Saturday and every 14 of may to protest against Russia, the whole country of fine land must be totally locked down until electricity is restored to Fine land.

Trouble sleep yanga go wake am. You have lived in peace with Russia for ages, done business with them without issuers then suddenly you want to join an alliance led by a country far way from you putting your country and people at risk. I thought these foolish Europeans where wise ni? How can they allow themselves to be fooled by those crafty Americans? Haven't they learnt from the Joker Zelensky? You will always have Russia with you as your neighbor so why all these? What do they hope to achieve by antagonizing Russia?
France seems to be the only reasonable voice in Europe right now. Others are just plain stupid.

Na the bulls the fight now, make chicken mind him business. A country that doesn't even have good road network, crude oil but no fuel, is what you call a country and even want to compare to others...the list long?

Ukraine was always under Russia's protection .... no reason to join NATO. The reason to join NATO has nothing to do with protection.... protection from who? You have a reasonable answer? Zelensky is being pushed by the US to join NATO so that US/NATO can set up military bases and place missiles at Russia's doorstep. Ask yourself what has US/NATO done to bring about peace? Ask yourself what US/NATO has done to escalate the conflict? If you are honest to yourself... you will understand who really is the bully and warmonger.
You dont know what you are saying! What about when russia annexed crimea from ukraine, do you still call that protection or oppression? Russia can not attack any country under NATO so zelensky is on the right part and i stand with him let ukraine battle russia till death because it is better to be a lion for a day than be a sheep all your life, Ukraine has just exposed to the world how weak almighty russia is. Nobody go fear Russia again

Finland receives 10% of electricity supply from Russia. Do you think it would affect Them?
Finland is about to connect new nuclear power station to its electricity grid system.

All this NEWS or NOISE was factored into their plan before they made the decision to join NATO....

Putin's Russia is like a man rearing chicken waiting for Christmas to arrive....

He is not feeding the chicken because he loves the chicken,

He is feeding the chicken because he has other ideas at Christmas.

The Finnish parliament have weighed the Pros and Cons of countinous romance with Putin's Russia...

They decided that it is not worth it...... Hence their decision to join NATO.

The same nation that supply you electricity, oil and gas today would wake up tomorrow and Invade your nation because of their desire to restore the old Soviet Union.

Finland had lost vast land to Russia in the Winter War and they are not ready to loose more land to Putin's Russia in the future.

Know your enemies early and let them know that you know their evil Christmas plans.

The same way our government have weighed options and taken certain economic policies that have derailed our economy right...?

Shey they've been living in peace why not continue. I believe they are seeing what is happening in Ukraine

Can you explain what you mean by "how big Russia is"? Big in What sense? Russia is big because they supply gas and electricity to other countries? Lol.
Nigeria supplies electricity and crude oil to some neighbouring African countries but look at where we are as a country even with our huge natural resources. Funny enough, all these countries that get gas and electricity from Russia are far better than Nigeria that has gas and crude oil.

In summary, it's not a country's natural resources that makes that country big. It's what you do with the resources that will determine if you will be big as a country or not.

Don’t be ridiculous sir. You could have googled how much electricity they buy from Russia first… fyi they buy roughly 10% of the yearly demand from Russia.

Now you think cos Finland buys 1/10th of its electricity from outside that they deem it cheaper as compared to buying plants in those area, you think that makes Nigeria any better than those countries ?

FYI, Benin and Togo buy electricity from Nigeria and Ghana but they manage it better than Nigeria and meet their countries demand.
Nigeria cannot provide its own citizen electricity which is one of the most basic thing of life. We are talking about an oil rich nation, among the top producer of oil ahead of Algeria, Libya, Angola.

Ukraine, Libya, Cuba, Venezuela, Syria, Iran, North Korea… these countries are in wars or under international blockade but have you noticed they they still have “ordinary” electricity even while at war ? Have you taken your time to notice that during live war coverage? Ukraine is at war yet it’s hospitals and train stations still works.

The only type of people who would support the current situation of Nigeria are those who are benefiting from the status quo. You must be benefiting from the national cake. Kontinue!

For Finland bid to join Nato to be successful, all Nato members must vote YES, Turkey has already indicated interest to vote NO!

What kind of headline is this?
Russia said it will suspended electricity, gas and oil supplies to Finland due to non-payment of Finland in Rubles since May 6th, according to Finnish PM.

Finnish PM said that Finland will not pay in Ruble even as many EU countries have already open up Ruble account.

Thank you ooo !!!!

While USA is far away surrendered by friendly neighbors before you quote me on this don't forget USA and her neighbours where all at war till they found peace. USA Annexed part of Mexico, invaded Canada etc

I still don't get why Russia hasn't placed troops, nuclear weapons & ICBMs in Cuba, Nicaragua & Venezuela yet.

Or form their own alliance with all NATO adversaries.

Since NATO has refused to stop moving towards Russia's borders. Russia should start moving closer to NATO's borders.

Lol. It seems you don't know your history kid. Go read about the Cuban missile crisis, then you will know why Russia can't dare to put any of it's weapons in Americas (North and South America).

Also, go read about Warsaw pact which was a military alliance that the Soviet Union formed with other countries to counter NATO. Warsaw pact later disintegrated while NATO is still standing. The worst past is that all the countries that were formerly part of the Warsaw pact are now in NATO! grin grin. Even the Soviet Union suggested to join Nato! grin

If you are big, you are big! grin

Finland has never been dependent on Russia. Only 10% of the electricity was imported and that 10% has already been replaced by other Nordic countries.

You dey mind them ? They have refused to read before typing. So annoying.
