Already happening, NATO will keep expanding all because of Putin's indiscretion and ego. Unlike before, most countries will now call his threats bluff because they now realised that Russia is nothing without their nuclear weapons.

This was not a war and the intentions was not to win a war. It focused more on the economy of Europe,get that, but you can try the real war with Russia and see result. The Nato planners can never think like you.

But US have invade Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria and lot more...

Georgia is an American allie, its a country that is less than 10million and they thought America will support them because they buy and have americsn weapons. Russia does not attack countries unless threatened or that country is being used as a lunch pad to get to it.e.g all the countries listed. Crimea use to be Russia and was a gift to Ukraine.

Wow this is an Interesting Article.

Strength without Wisdom is Truly Disastrous.

The Age-long Untrustworthiness of Russia is smelling everywhere they turn.

And one man is behind the Invasion of fellow
CIS member countries...... Hitler's Protégé.

Vladimir Putin.

Putin is a very patriotic citizen of Russia, he built the country to what you now know today as Russia. They cannot afford to be another yugoslavia,now splited into pieaces.


Yugoslavia use to be a powerful country in time past, when you break countries to pieces, they become weak, Croatia, Montenegro, Serbia, Slovenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Macedonia.

The Best patriotic men I have met & know are those who built their country very strong & still maintained a strong cordial relationship with its neighbors.

A patriot is someone who believes in "LIVE & LET'S LIVE!

A true patriot cannot threaten his/her INDEPENDENT neighbor's if any decides to join an association.

How did Georgia threatened Russia in 2008?

Don't forget that Georgia tilted towards the west after Russia annexed Abkhazia & South Ossetia.

Yugoslavia use to be a powerful country in time past, when you break countries to pieces, they become weak, Croatia, Montenegro, Serbia, Slovenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Macedonia.

And who is trying to break up Russia ?

Let me guess your answer...

I know you will say The United States and NATO member countries.

That would not happen..

NATO has not planned or would plan to Invade Russia militarily and break up the country.

NATO knows the disastrous outcome of such a move. Even North Korea with few Nuclear Weapons has not been invaded and broken up.

Russia is among the P5 of the UN Security Council and there exists a treaty among the P5 members never to resort to Nuclear War because there is no winners in a Nuclear War.

Joe Biden (A seasoned Politician) understand this fact, that is why when my Comedian President was calling on NATO to declare a No fly Zone and close the Ukrainian airspace,

Biden Rejected it outrightly. NATO does not want a broader War. Nato does not want an Escalation of the War because of the reasons stated above.

Purin's Russia on the other hand understands this too...

During his victory day speech, Putin said and I quote him verbatim :

"We must do everything possible to avoid the horrors of a global war"

That is why he did not declare an all out war in Ukraine on victory day.

That is why so far, Putin's Russia has not targeted Poland, where most of the weapons are flowing into Ukraine.

What we commentators in Nairaland fail to mention often is the mutual respect between the East and the West. Between Russia and NATO.

Nobody can attack the other and remain safe. Nobody can attack the other and not pay a high price......... Hence the United Nations Treaty I alluded to above.

Putin's victory day speech about NATO's plan to "Invade" his country is simply Hogwash and Balderdash.

The Invasion he is afraid of is Idealogical invasion. Western values Invasion that would rout his system of government. If they allow Western values to creep into the system, Putin and his Cronies would loose Power.

So Putin's Patriotism to Russia is questionable since he cannot allow his people to choose their way of life without censorship and suppression.

Remember, Russia is the people not the vast expanse of land

Putin is Patriotic to the Authoritarian style of leadership and I understand that.

The whole world cannot be Democratic. If that is the Grand plan of the United States and NATO, then I am afraid that their plan is Dead on Arrival.

The World would always be East versus West. Democracy versus Authoritarianism / Religious Extremism.

Do you know the meaning of these?

Full-spectrum dominance also known as full-spectrum superiority, is a military entity's achievement of control over all dimensions of the battlespace, effectively possessing an overwhelming diversity of resources in such areas as terrestrial, aerial, maritime, subterranean, extraterrestrial, psychological, and bio- or cyber-technological warfare.

Full spectrum dominance includes the physical battlespace; air, surface and sub-surface as well as the electromagnetic spectrum and information space. Control implies that freedom of opposition force assets to exploit the battlespace is wholly constrained.

Nato is just a union/organization/association formed in 1945, for any country which desired to be part of her, irrespective of your region or continent.

Russia formed her own Warsaw pact in 1955.. however after the collapse of the Soviet Union, members of the Warsaw pact WILLINGLY joined Nato.

Please name one country that Nato FORCED OR DRAGGED into Nato?

Did Nato force Sweden & Finland to join them?

David Mark, former Senate president of Nigeria, is a staunch member of PDP whereas his daughter is a member of APC.
Russia & Putin does not have this kind of flexibility & tolerance.

Hungry, Poland, Romania, Albania, Czechoslovakia, East Germany, Bulgaria were all members of Russia's Warsaw pact.

In 1989, after the collapse of the Berlin Wall, East Germany left the Russia's Warsaw pact & joined her brother West Germany who was already a member of Nato to become a united Germany.

After the collapse of the Soviet Union,in 1990, Poland, Romania, Albania, Hungary, Czechoslovakia WILLINGLY joined Nato.

Every right thinking person wants to be part of a strong military alliance.

In Nigeria today,we have more than 5 political parties but APC & PDP dominates the political space.

APC or PDP cannot force or drag any person to join them.

If the whole world decides to join Nato what would Russia do? nothing.

How many nuclear war head does Russia have?... Germany, France, Japan, UK, US,Italy, Canada, Australia have there own version of nuclear weapons.

These countries are not even up to 1/3 of Nato members.

Just take a look at those countries & judge whether Russia can face them.
