Putin is an example of man who stands up for something, standsup against bullies, stands up for his people and does whatever it takes to achieve it. If you cannot see who the bigger is here, then you are blind and will understand when you are much older and have sense.

you don't understand. They tried joining NATO but US turned them down without any reason. It was there Russia realized US has made Russia an enemy of NATO to keep NATOs relevance flourishing because without any common enemy, NATO will die a natural death as no one is willing to fight wars or become an enemy of NATO.

So you understand why Russia is fighting this war. NATO and American imperialism seek to use Russia's close neighbors to get to Russia and breaking Russia into parts as an endgame to create the good atmosphere to stealing their oil 🛢️ like they did in Iraq and Syria and Libya.

Russia is too powerful to be defeated or crushed like Iraq otherwise America would've stepped in with boots on ground. The only thing keeping Americans at bay is Russia's military and nukes. US cannot risk fighting an enemy having almost equal brutal strength and mad abilities to strike back delivering devastating blows as well. They can't fight an ememy that could decimate their beautiful cities 😂 hence why they're using Ukraine as a pawn in the fight.


For those in doubt, kindly watch this video on this Facebook link below and hear things from the horse's mouth. You won't find this video easily on the net as they literally censored every legit news coming from Russia to keep the world away from knowing the truth behind Soviet/NATO and Russia's application to join NATO. US imperialism is a cancer to the world.

1. This war could've been prevented. Zelensky, US and its allies sort of wanted this war cos negotiation was on the table but they didn't want that.


2. Putin choosing to Invade Ukraine when he did makes no sense to me, he could've done that in 2014 with the excuse that the then "legitimate" pro-russian government requested for their help like Saudi Arabia did in Bahrain to stop an anti government protests that was getting out of hand.


3. The people who think Ukraine alone can defeat Russia even with the most sophisticated "western" weapon are dellusional. Ukraine is already fighting at full capacity. They've requested for so much money and weapon, still needing more while Russia looks like they're just getting started.



4. Zelensky is a foolish man and the Ukrainian government is not as clean as the west will like you to believe.


5. Putin is a madman but we've known this for years, so why give a madman an excuse?

Russia was denied membership issues like the invasion of Ukraine.

Imagine if Russia were to be in NATO by now.l
There will be no one to help Ukraine

Russia does not need to join NATO, NATO was formed not against former USSR but some perceived anti western ideologies, Russia wont join NATO, the
West wont even allow it, NATO was a western conspiracy and it is still is. There was nowhere putin requested to join NATO, it is Ukraine that wants to join NATO not Russia. If you talk about STAR treaty, that is the agreement Russia has with the US and will still pull out of it, not request for NATO membership.

dey play... Turkey practises democracy? Leemao grin

Lol. I knew you would mention Turkey.
Turkey after WWII joined NATO in 1950s, after she joined the UN, showing a willingness to embrace liberalism and it's ideals. Turkey was and is, strategic geographically to NATO and to Russia then. The USSR had requested to have a military base in the Turkish straights for communist expansion. Turkey was more like a new convert to the Western front. The US had to block that by creating military bases in Turkey, out of bilateral relationship sparked by a treaty between Turkey and Greece to be protected by the US. You can look up President Truman's doctrine for insight on those.
Yes, Turkey had, always had a mix of democracy. She had always shown the her lust for democratic values and ideals, rather than communism, after the world war. That was all the US needed to peg NATO's pillars there. I must say her geographic advantage is a huge factor too. Recently Erdoghan has become a pain in the ass for the West, but hey, NATO needs that location as an edge. Turkey has become more autocratic and less democratic under Erdoghan though, but that doesn't rule them out. They have democratic structures and affiliations that they are commited to. Even though they strugle with it. But it's more about Erdoghan than Turkey as a nation. Just like Trump came and Merkel threw up. It's more about the leader now than her system. Turkey in NATO is a controversial topic.
Comrade, oya mention another country.

Zelensky would've disappeared if the entire west isn't backing him. He's only acting like a hero because of their support.


He would have disappeared long ago if it's just europe backing him cos those ones can't withstand the "bully".

Ukraine has nothing to lose? Lol. I still maintain that Zelenskiy is a fool for allowing the US using his country as a battleground for a few billion $. The only way this war ends is on a dialogue. Zelenskiy was willing to dialogue until the former UK PM was sent to sabotage it. Have you guys asked why the US isn't running out of cash and weapons to give to Ukraine? That's because top military US officials have stakes in Lockheed Martin and Boeing. They need to make money. For the time being Ukraine thinks the US is their friend until the war is over. For those saying Putin started this war then they've very little knowledge on international politics. The US planned a coup in Turkey and Venezuela but failed. Russia was looking out for themselves. A few casualties here and there and the US but nukes to a gun fight in 1945. Should be go back to Cuba, Ecuador or Vietnam? Iraq??

The Russia-Ukraine conflict dates back before 2014. The US have always wanted the lion share of the loot since WW1 even though they did very little in the war.

Most of the money will be going to US military contractors and weapon manufacturers to supply the weapons. Also western oil companies have been making record profits.


One guy called this on twitter before the war. How it will profit the US and so far he's been correct.

You are used to bowing down to any bully and you expect other people who are your betters to do same is nothing but delusional on your part. The free world will not allow authoritarian dictatorships to maul democratically inclined countries without offering them support that is the sort of lies that were fed to Putin before the invasion which he foolishly thought will be done and dusted in a few weeks.

This devilish mad man started the war but tries to push the blame. We all watched with our eyes how your tanks and soldiers marched into Ukraine.

When the US intelligence said Putin was going to start the invasion even with an exact date, even Zekensky did not believe and was ignorantly caught unawares as he never expected that Russia will invade. Despite Russia's element of surprise on Ukraine, Putin still failed and after one year, Ukraine still stands!

MT:


Let me respond to the bolded one by one:

1. The western alliance is not up to 100 not to talk of over. That is a blantant exagerration by you.

2. Your strength as a Nation depends on the Quality of your friends on a global scale. The US invest heavily on its allies, and if attacked, all its allies will rise in unison to defend it. Russia too has alliance with countries like Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Tajikistan.

3. Proxy war is allowed. Russia used it against the US in Afghanisan. It is not a new thing.

4. The West do not want to crush Russia, but turn it into a pariah nation, which it is right now. The Westerner's soldiers and serious military assets are not involved. They are toying with Russia and making Russia to deplete its military resources. Do you know how many high grade military resources that Russia has wasted in Ukraine, to the point they have to be begging North Korea and Iran for help.

5. Despite high price of Crude oil last year, Russia economy still contracted by 2.1%. That is the result of the biting sanction. Russia is also forced to sell its oil on the cheap to India and China while spending heavily in the war. Russia is withering before our very eyes, Putin knows, and that is why he became reactionary by suspending START treaty with the US.

6. It is understandable for them to be careful. Russia is a nuclear armed nation. Russia too is careful by not striking any NATO land. When a missile landed in Poland, Russia quickly started explaining that it was not her that shot the missile; that was also being careful because as mad as Putin is, he would not want a direct conflict with NATO that is backed by the United States.

Ps: NATO is not involved in the conflict. Just individual countries that make up NATO are donating firepower to Ukraine.

The West do not want to crush Russia? What are you smoking man? No body is ready to risk a nuclear Holocaust. The US won't even dare confront NK talk more of Russia. Russia won't dare confront the US too. Anyone who has nukes is treated like flies perching on the scrotum, you don't use brutal force!

Sometimes i wonder how you guys were bred that you found it difficult to air your opinion without being insultive.

There are ways you crush nation without the use of force. USSR was crushed and split without a single shot fired.

Your takeaway - do not come to open platform and spiral out of control. Be civil. Make your point without being a loose cannon. Represent your family and unborn generation well.

Lol! This is more than just bowing to a bully. Putin warned severally before the war in Ukraine but he was the lone voice in the wilderness. No one listened to him, on a last ditch effort to avert this the French PM on alliance with the West only fuelled it. If Zelenskiy so loves his people as claimed then he would've avoided the war at all cost. Would you as a president allow the ongoing onslaught in your country? Putin right from the onset knew and has always reiterated in his speeches that the war was against the West and not Ukraine. Both parties regret the war! If Zelenskiy could turn back the hands of time he wouldn't got into the war. Putin on the other hand his expending so much in this war. The tactic the West thought they would use more or less economic. Sanction Russia to it's knees but it seems Putin was holding his cards close to his and wasn't clueless afterall. The biggest loser of this war? Ukraine!

Anyone who thinks Putin would be docked in the ICC or Russia forced to pay reparations to Ukraine must be delusion. Russia and the US dine in the same table, it's just a matter of who finished his meal first. America loves war, they don't care if they win or lose as long stocks of precision instruments and weaponry keeps pointing up they're happy. On the other hand Russian Oligarchs are also running put of patience just as Americans are frustrated that their taxes is funding a war elsewhere. Interesting times ahead!
