I read many comments criticizing Russian's ban on former US president Barack Obama. What people don't know is that many US elites including Obama have various investments outside United States. Many US politicians also have companies and business investments in Russia.

Hence, I do not think that Russia is capping when they made a statement of banning US citizens including Obama.

Meanwhile, I train people how to trade FOREX for free. Check my signature.

It's only China that is cashing out big time from all the dramas, Putin after depleting Russia resources and plundering Russia economy and influence through this senseless war will eventually lick China ass grin
China is the economic nerve of the BRICS bloc

Lol, very funny but the truth still remains that it's been programmed to happen so, that one day Asia shall dominate...

America on the other hand have something to hide concerning this Ukraine vs Russia war ... The media are blonders of the world.

Did u even read the content at all? Russia banning Obama, means he would not be able to visit or do business not just in Russia but other countries that stands in alliance with Russia.

Hope u understand now sir?

You must be a joker. Do you think other countries would stop doing business with Americans in Russia's sanction list simply because they have good relations with Putin?

Even America, as powerful as it is, hasn't been able to get other countries to sanction Russia.

China is very smart and has nothing to loose but a lot to gain in this war
China still have access to Russian oil and gas that has become relatively cheap due to lack of sales because of the western sanctions and still do business with the West while Russia and the West are pouring billions into Ukraine war, something that is not bringing them anything in return, I even heard China is paying Russia with Yuan grin grin grin

It's not gonna happen anytime soon but on the long run because Yuan value is very low, that is why they're making plans for the BRICS currency, if they achieve that and more countries join BRICS (especially the oil rich countries) then it'll be easy for the BRICS currency to overtake dollar as international means of settlement and reserve.

Meanwhile, the only country with strong economic value and influence in BRICS is China, others are still struggling

Imagine if Simon Ekpa was an American, instigating violence in a far away Aly country, he would have long been extradited to the US. But since they don’t consider it e Nigerians as important. The Finish government shields him .


The West has no reason to care about Pro-Biafran activists, they are not a threat to Nigeria/the African continent or the West. Now, Nigeria is full of muslim terrorists (Boko Haram/related groups and offshoots, Fulani herdsmen and "moderate" everyday muslims terrorists such as the people who killed Deborah Samuels.) That's what the West is concerned about. Remember the Chibok girls? That incident really humiliated Nigeria on the world stage. Remember that Northern underwear bomber guy, he passed through Murtala Mohammed Airport undetected and attempted to blowup an American flight. The CIA has been predicting Civil war and disintegration of Nigeria for years now since 2005. They know about Nigeria's problems than we do.

They know Igbos are not the problem with Nigeria. When have Igbos (Biafrans included) celebrated 9/11 and glorified Osama Bin Laden like Northerners did do? Northern Nigerians are known to support and associate with known enemy states and figures to the West like Iran, Afghanistan etc. against Israel and the West. The Finnish government likely knows that Nigeria has an oppressive Islamist government.

I think it’s simply because they care not about Nigeria holistically rather than all the stuffs you factored in below. They act upon what is in their best interests

That is because they are not a danger to their geopolitical interest unlike Alqaeda and the likes that proclaimed themselves as anti- American.., Those two you mentioned are Anti- Nigeria hence , they are treated as such. But on a more serious note, why would an Igbo man who resides outside of Nigeria be ordering people to be harassing and killing their fellow kinsmen , just because they failed to observe their sit-at home order? The blood of those killed are on his neck. It’s only a matter of time before he gets nabbed to answer for his crimes
