THREAD:

The sanctions against Russia are what turned this conflict into an existential crisis—

—for the West: The US and Europe.

On Feb. 24, preventing Ukraine from joining NATO was existential for Russia. They could not allow NATO armies and nukes on their doorstep.

In other words, by imposing sanctions on Russia, the US scared the rest of the world into de-dollarizing—so they have no need to park their excess reserves in US debt instruments. So the US will soon no longer be able to finance its trade deficit or government deficits.

So now of course, every other country wants to pivot away from such a capricious partner, and join with someone big but predictable—China/Russia.

Also, it cannot be overstated how disgusted the rest of the world is by American degeneracy, especially the LGBTQP+ stuff.

Someone who understands how economy works.

The west especially the u.s will blame them self for sanctioning Russia, the sanctions opened the eyes of many nation especially china and India that after Russia they're next in line.

Big mistake by the u.s they're losing their economy and influence at the same time.

Ukraine will not be able to push the Russians out as far as the Russians are still trading and making more money.
More money means endless war, what I'm noticing at the end of the day it'll be the west that won't be able to sustain this war because Russia will not loss on the battlefield.

Have you seen what Nigeria is doing? When they are able to dump foreign payment system like mastercard, verve, visa, it's game on for us.

Besides, this war is at Russia neighborhood. It's like col. Doug Macgregor said, Russia cannot fight US in their border like Mexico, they will lose. This war is in Russian border, the west will lose. If they go nuclear, Russia is there for them.

According to rumors, the losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, according to the data transmitted by the Supreme Commander of AFU Zaluzhny to the Pentagon, amount to 232 thousand dead!

According to the private firm Stratfor Forecasting, Ukraine's losses exceeded 305,000 dead!

Exactly.
If the u.s get their boots on ground (which is not going to happen) they will lose. One thing for sure in the case of the u.s and Russia, whoever invade the other will lose.

I was delighted when I read it on the news yesterday that the CBN lunched a domestic card scheme.
Once the card has gained enough ground in the country the CBN will dump Mastercard and visa for our domestic card. You see this move is the best I've seen from this administration so far.
This move will lead to a faster economic growth.

this is for the people that thought wars are only won on the battle ground...the effect of Afghanistan war on the USA economy is bigger but they can't tell us that because they are ashame to give the data's out, as well in the words of Joe Biden " we can't continue financing a lose battle"... Europe is already in regrets...
