US spent 20 years in rag tagged Afghanistan and unable to defeat them. The US was shamefully expelled. Same in Vietnam.
Russia have been able to annexed a very huge part of Ukraine with massive resources and even installed governors there and conducted elections.

What's this one saying? Even in it's weakest state, no military in Europe can defeat the Ukrainian army. Mention 1 country that can defeat Ukraine in Europe.

Ukraine have received more than 250 billion dollars worth of equipments, their armies trained to NATO standards, supported in battlefields by tens of thousands of NATO military personnel disguised as mercenaries, over 500 hundred military satellites providing real time battle field intelligence and guidance, thousands of economic crippling sanctions have been placed on Russia and still losing.

The defeat of Ukraine is literally the defeat of NATO and western hegemony, else why do you think small rat like Iran for the first time is attacking US bases in Iraq and Syria? Why do you think Iran is openly sending missiles to the houthis to attack US, UK ships? US is literally a toothless bulldog. The international coalition US established to protect ships failed, heck only UK participated.

Russia defeated NATO in Ukraine by strategically prolonging the conflict and exhausting all NATO inventories and supplies. At present, it will take 🇺🇸 more than 8 years of running double shifts to replace and manufacture military hardwares sent to Ukraine. US is at it's weakest point since second World War.



Lolz. I still can't find any point in this long epistle. It's really is not necessary bro.
Putin didn't see himself spending up to 2 years in Ukraine.

You don’t even know what you’re saying, Sweden and Finland joining NATO isn’t Russia’s problem, Ukraine is like a brother to Russia and they both in same Soviet Union before they were breakaway, it’s simple Russia has already deployed troops close to all borders between Finnish and Sweden, the Ukraine you said to be the poorest country in Europe have military capabilities than Sweden and Finland In combined, don’t just come here and spew nonsense 😂😂😂
grin grin grin
There is nothing like "brother" in international politics. A country is either
a puppet, an ally or an enemy. And decisions are made based on such characterizations.

Russia invading Ukraine has nothing to do with NATO.
Ukraine couldn't even apply.
Sweden and Finland, planned to apply, debated for months and eventually joined with
Russia doing nothing but barking.

Deploying troops near their borders is meaningless if NATO is the great devil Putin make
them to be. If it was about NATO, Putin could just have deployed troops near Ukraine border too
and leave it at that.

I will leave the real logical reason for the invasion as an exercise for you.

and by that they help push others to join Nato? undecided

Ukraine can still join Nato also so what have they achieved?

In a surprising turn of events, Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a decree branding the 1867 sale of Alaska to the U.S. as 'illegal.' This move has reignited historical debates and raised geopolitical concerns on a global scale.

Alaska, acquired by the U.S. from the Russian Empire for $7.2 million, has been an integral part of the nation for over 150 years. The region's strategic location near Russia's eastern territories through the Bering Strait has long been a geopolitical focal point.

Post-World War II, Alaska gained heightened significance as the U.S. and the Soviet Union emerged as rivals. Now, in the wake of Putin's 2022 invasion of Ukraine, the idea of reclaiming Alaska has gained momentum among Russian politicians.

Sergei Mironov, a close ally of Putin, advocates for Moscow to consider reclaiming Alaska from what he perceives as a "weakened U.S." State Duma President Vyacheslav Volodin issues a cautionary message to Americans, reminding them of Russia's potential to reclaim assets, should they attempt to seize Russian properties abroad.

Drawing parallels with Russia's actions in Crimea, historically transferred to Ukraine during the Soviet era, adds an ominous historical context to the unfolding situation.

The tension brewing between Russia and the U.S. over Alaska adds a new layer to the complex geopolitics of our time. Fueled by historical grievances and recent global events, this situation highlights the evolving dynamics between these two influential nations and raises questions about the potential impact on the global geopolitical landscape. As the world watches, the historical echoes and contemporary geopolitical maneuvering create an atmosphere of uncertainty and concern.

If they want problem, you give them problem. No more war by proxy. Putin giving them back to back 🤣🤣

There is nothing to give them back to back, from the article he cited about crimes how did he take crimes? I'd it by peace or war? Why won't your answer be applicable to Alaska? Is Alaska not in the world map?

We are waiting to see if he can replicate that scenario rather than talking without actions. Talk does not destroy a nation but actions does. Let him shoot and so he knows the meaning of incineration.

What would you do if they bring the war to Africa? Can you defend your women and children?

African men have been defending women and children since time immemorial. We were and are warriors. We had gone to warfare leaving women at home. Modern African men die everyday defending women and their children. African men, Nigerian especially, are the only people that do not require women contributions in running financial activities of home. Why do u think men die way earlier than women in Africa?

There's no way Putin will fight every of his neighbour that will be foolish of him. He has his reasons for putting his focus on Ukraine. Besides Putin is rebuilding some cities that were destroyed during the war in Ukraine. You are not more intelligent than Putin every step he takes are well though through. NATO understands that Putin is determined to make this war go on as long as possible and that is not what the United states want. Putin has alot of good friends do not under estimate him.

You are very myopic at war politics no offence! If not for the West, Putin should have ended the war long ago, so it is actually the west that wants the war to go on as long as possible, to make it difficult for Putin. If the U.S wanted the war to end since, it should have entered itself, and not just to send weapons.

And Putin thought by attacking Ukraine, he will make a strong statement, preventing any neighbouring country from joining NATO out of fear, but exactly the reverse was the case as Finland already joined and Sweden too is finalising the process to join.

Putin is so insensitive. He doesn't care how many of his citizens falls as casualty to these wars. He never goes to any himself so it's easy to dish out instructions from his ac parlour. I guess he's acting according to his name Putin so he keeps putting fire. We gonna change it to Removin so he starts to calm down

Since your are so woke with "war politics" don't know what that means, how come U.s stopped the funding in Ukraine? Don't u know it was causing a huge problem between democrats and republicans. The problem here is that u guys failed to realise that U.s miscalculated. They thought by sanctioning and fighting Russia through Ukraine they can distablize Russia buh it didn't happen. Putin went further to sign a deal with north korea to supply weapons buh u.s got scared and chickened out
