Russia made a good use of this opportunity for real,Biden is a bad negotiator... imagine exchanging a basketball player with an international arms dealer that has delivered weapons of destruction in many wars...and I learnt this lady doesn't even regard the US like dat,always showing unpatriotic attitudes,a former Marine is also in Russian prison buh he was not exchanged,I guess it's because of the popularity of this basketball player sha

A USA citizen is important, it doesn't matter if it is a Base ball player or basketball player, a citizen is a citizen

On this,I think it's a win for Russia. But come to think of it. Why not Paul Whelan but Griner? Could it be that Griner might be a secret agent or something that the US cannot afford to lose. Because I can't wrap my head's about getting her out for an armsdealer and leaving a marine behind

I think there is much to what we know.I think so

That's not true. Boko haram and other terrorists in Africa are sponsored by the West. They use Western weapons. Lafarge, a French company was recently indicted for sponsoring terrorism. That's why many African countries are contracting Russia's Wagner group to help fight Western sponsored terrorists in their countries. The issue stated by the US was that this guy supplied weapons to Governments that the US were against, like Charles Taylor of Liberia and others

AK 47 are western weapons abi, old Soviet RPG that the boko harem and the m23 rebels, are Western weapons abi, go and see down,

I hope American ass lickers can see through their hypocrisy now..Ukrainians are dieing in their numbers, their cities are getting burnt. But they have refused to compromise and negotiate. While the Us pushing them,leading them on quickly swapped a gun runner,someone considered to have sold weapons to terrorists for a Lesbian crack head. You can see that the US is not even using thesame aggressive energy it has encouraged Ukraine to use in engaging with Russia!

Even Russia and Ukraine swap prisoners of war, even during this present conflict,

You haven't answered my question.

These are your exact words:

"When you love your people, you would value a crack head above a high ranked terrorist. It's something Nigeria can learn from."

Why was Paul Whelan who is a marine and who has been in a Russian jail since 2018 not exchanged for victor bout? Why was Griner the preferred choice? Does the US not love Paul Whelan?

I have answered you question unless you did not get my answer. You can rephrase your question and I would answer it once again.
I also explained to you that the priority should be civilians, women and children.
So if a soldier is not yet exchanged it's understandable.
You do not leave your women in captivity and rescue your soldiers.

Like I told you before, you know nothing about geopolitics.

This is a big “L” for the US from an international perspective. It only shows the world where the real strength lies.

You can’t understand this level of negotiation as there are a lot attached to it.

In international politics, little things that a novice like you overlook matters a lot. I.e body language.

Notice how MBS of Saudi welcomed Biden vs how MBS welcomed XI.

Olaf scholz visit to China, his length of stay and the text that was read out.

XI scolding of Justin Trudeau at the G20 summit in Bali.

Seek wisdom.

You have a point.
Infact, about two years ago, Russia proposed exchanging the Arms Dealer, with the Ex-Marine, Whelan but America refused, saying Russia should just release Whelan.

Then this happened?

It shows that Biden places more premium of the Basketballer, because she is LGBT.
It even gets worse knowing that Whelan is serving espionage charges, something that annoys foreign countries a lot.

What would happen next is that America will try to snag a very important Russian, to force an exchange with Whelan in the future.
If l were a Russian, l will stay clear of America and be wary of any dealings with them or their proxies.

The Russian government needed to get their man (Merchant Of Death) out of prison knowing that all American lives matters to the government, so they went for this innocent woman who her alleged crime was being in possession of a substance that contained marijuana oil.


This is like swapping your infinix smart 5 with an iPhone 14 pro max.


Why not swapping for Paul Whelan? ... he was there before ... he was a Marine ... who put his life on the line for his country.... shouldn't his life matter more to the government? ... and why would Russia snatch her for the swap? ... a Black female BB player who is not a household name in the US? If you understand .... like Russia does .... the influence of the gay community on the Biden administration you will see why she was snatched and the swap took place.

Na Mumu dey go prison for wetin Raaare do.
That is Street Wisdom. undecided

Zelensky is yet to realise that he is a Pawn in a Chess game, he thinks just because a Slave is invited to the Dinner Table, it has become a Slave Owner.

This War will one day, come to an End. As of TODAY, Europe still buys Russian Oil and Gas and so many other Minerals.
America is more concerned about its own interest and the will only act, if their interest aligns with yours or they can use you to advance their own interest.

In Palestine this year, over 300 Palestinians Civilians have been killed by Israel, they kill them every day but you will never hear it reported in Western Media, because America and Israel interests align.

Look at the Congo Masacre, No Western Country is imposing sanctions or sending Weapons to the Govt of Congo.

America and Russia will still shake hands, in a few years but Ukraine under Zelensky, has become a ruined Country.
