The real question is, how would you rate Russia’s military performance??

Not a Biden fan but I have no problems with his Russia and China policy. Would love if he can raise the stakes by giving Ukraine more offensive weapons.

What's wrong with Russia's military performance so far? You tell me.

Whether you're a Biden's fan or not, doesn't change the fact he is one hell of a failure in the foreign policy front. Heck, even the Saudis gives him the middle finger, and why wouldn't they? After all, here is a president that shakes thin air after making a speech. Never has anyone seen such embarrassment in the history of American government.

Old Joe can't even get baby formula for the US, and he had to pass through the backdoor to get Russia's fertilizers he once sanctioned. I wonder how much stakes are left that he can raise with Ukraine against Russia.

Deal with it, he is a failure.

Missy89:
Russia’s incompetent military will be swept aside quickly.

I don’t understand why everyone talks about nuclear weapons as if Russia is the only country the has one.

I have been good. Working a lot more than I should

That's good to hear. Work is a necessity this days.

Incompetency? How would you describe the Biden-led US government and it's flawed foreign policy? Be honest.

bn365:
Biden, from one end of his mouth, refers to inflation and high costs of gas and food as pain people have to endure as they gradually whine the country off fossil fuel. On the other end of his mouth, he calls it 'Putin price hikes'.

He campaigned on shutting down Fossil fuels. His first actions were series of executive actions aimed at stopping oil exploration.
He seems to be making good on that promise but when he's asked if that is what is going on? He says no, blame Putin.

Honest, is confusing how these leaders thinks and act.

bn365:
Somehow, looking at the actions of these govts., it seems their actions are deliberate. Controlled demolition of nation-states, to usher in something new in the ashes of the old system?

As much as I hate to admit it, you sound logically correct. How on Earth would a leader of a country deliberately set in motions a chain of events that gradually erode it's country's economic potentials just to massage the oversize ego of one hegemon?

It's baffling.

seunny4lif:
Gas price have hit over €1300 now and if it hit around €2K, German automobiles companies will cut off staff and same with the chemical manufacturing companies

Russia is gradually turning the screws at every turn. Gazprom had reduced gas supply to Germany and Italy by 35 percent, citing maintenance problem on the pipelines, which they alleged is due to the Sanctions on Russia. But Italy and Germany said it's a lie; a political move by Russia weaponizing gas.

I sometimes wonder whether these EU leaders are kids. You weaponized your financial institutions - which are your products - in a bid to screw the economic prowess of the hand that feeds you. And when that hand now withdraws albeit a little from feeding you, you come out and cry foul. Who does that?

Missy89:
This is 2022. Time to grow up

Hey, my dearest friend Long time no see.

Of course, it's 2022 and the rest of the world have grown up, except the collective west led by Biden who alleges that Putin has placed a tax on the US economy.

That said, how have you been doing? I miss you guys, really.

baralatie:

Neither of them is faring any better

The rouble is holding up against the dollar but Russia cannot do business in dollar.so it will affect nothing like a sky rocking inflation that is hitting both Russia and the west.

As long as inflation in both Russia and the west is running up and up.
Both economies will be pushed to ......
Which is a traditional outcome of prolong war

Inflation is actually slowing down in Russia but increasing in the west.

Jimasun:
Too much ignorance in one post.
1. You need enriched Uranium to produce electricity with uranium - Russia holds 46% of the world's capacity.
2. Many European and even American nuclear plants depends on Russian technology. All Russia need to do is stop spare parts from reaching them.
3. Russia produces its own microchip enough for military use. But imports most of its need for civilian use.
4. However, without Russia, most microchip producers can't produce because Russia controls over 40% of neon gas (a very important material needed for chip production.) With its capture of Mariupol and impending capture of Odessa, Russia would control over 80% of neon gas worldwide and that's absolutely going to wreck havoc if Russia decides to withhold neon gas. Price of neon gas has already risen by over 1000% since beginning of the war.

The world need Russia, it is too big a country to be ignored

I wanted to write most of what you just wrote but seeing you have done a great service of educating the ignorant minds here, I will just rest my case.

Rastaramsey:
Na morons full this nairaland....

Instead of engaging in the war, he should have surrendered ABI....

Make Putin turn am to prisoner

Una no even dey think sef...

Get sense. If it was Poroshenko, this would never have happened. He would have negotiated and stick to his side of the bargain as a businessman. But when you have a comedian as president who knows nothing about politics, let alone geopolitics, this is bound to happen. It is only a madman like Zelensky that could have expected to win a war with a giant next door neighbor.

But the west has their hands on some of their latest tech

Like what?

richeeyo:
This might look like Russians are winning but in reality they fighting a lazy war,they are only taking over places that share boarder with Russia,with help of shelling from inside Russia
Their foot soldiers are useless though
Any time dey advance
The loose a General

You don't have to blame them that much the Russians made mistakes in the early hours of the conflict but they have adjusted and corrected most of that. Understand that this is a highly tactical and strategic conflict at play here. The Yankees are in it not just to weaken Russia as they have said openly, but to learn and test Russia's fighting prowess, capabilities and technology. The Russians are trying so much not to give all of that away. This is a country waging war against the whole of NATO who are guiding and supplying real-time Intel to the Ukrainians. The Donbass and Luhansk region share borders with Russia and that's the primary line of engagement for the Russians.

I hope this war will stop soon. While both sides have lost considerable amount of men, the message is clear and loud enough to the collective west that Russia is too big and too strong and capable to be intimidated economically and militarily.

Kastonkastroll:
If na me be Iran, I go just tell dem make they keep d vessel already I got two of their vessels. Let's be mad together

I understand your point. But it's not about seizing more tankers. It's about sending a message and creating a precedent. The Iranians have made it clear that anyone that seizes their ship will be dealth with accordingly.

seunny4lif:
They rush to sanction Russia and now everyone is getting hit
Funny thing is Hungary still get cheap oil and gas from Russia.
They have cheap fuel

In a nutshell, it's a classic case of failed American sanctions.
Except China all top 8 importers of fossil fuels are either EU members or USA allies.
EU and allies lecturing the world against buying Russia fossil fuels, are the biggest importers of it.
Bigots & hypocrites!

EU and hypocrisy are like five and six.

Uptownerd:
US is definitely in a hot spot right now.

Agreed. That's why Biden is making a trip to Saudi Arabia. They need more oil to be pumped into the market to lower the price. But the funny thing is that, as long as the war in Ukraine keeps going, oil prices will continue to edge up.

seunny4lif:
I swear
Well fuel price have hit £2 in UK today

I will not be surprise once protest start hitting many European capitals. Once the government becomes unable to sustain the money subsidies they are currently doing, it would be hell on them. Biden is already blaming Russia, calling it Putin's tax. These guys are funny.

seunny4lif:
U.S. secretly encouraging agricultural and transport companies to increase purchases of Russian fertilizers amid a sharp decline in supplies due to sanctions

Bloomberg

The 'collective west' is led by a bunch of unintelligent short-sighted bureaucrats whose policies while serving their Establishment Masters are driven by pure irrational emotions rather than pragmatic and logical reasoning. It's pure madness.

BritishNaija:
There is much to quarrel about O. Did US told you they paud in rubles?

A US company operating under the laws of the United States paid in Ruble. End of discussion.

gambojimeta:
In the shithole, the babies would have been fed contaminated food due to the wickedness and greediness in the land.

Spot the difference homie...

One interest rate is falling while the other is rising.

Russia sanctioned heavily and waging an ongoing war against the "collective west" is cutting down interest rate while the Biden-led United Snakes of Abomination is increasing interest rates. Call it the economic version of the German Enigma.

In summary, things are getting cheaper by the day in Russia. But in Amerika, they're getting costlier, no thanks to the "Putin's tax" on the US economy as alleged by old Joe.

Ordinary pad USA can't get again in super market lol

People are now stealing baby formulas and it's materials in the US while the country they sanctioned is lowering interest rates. How has the mighty fallen.

BritishNaija:
You did not attend School ni? It's Private company that NASA that is funded by US Goverment contracted to act as intermediary. NASA paid the company in US dollars and do not have interest of how the Private company decided to pay to Russia to secure seats. You made it seem as if NASA paid directly to Russia.

There is no need quarrelling over this. The point is that a US company paid for space transport on Russia's flight, and the payment was in Rubles, not in Dollars. That settles it.

gaby:
Overhyped piece of shiit countries who make up the EU/NATO and allowing themselves to be pawned in a cold war of wits with Russia by the US.

Landlocked countries which would naturally be LGA/states in Nigeria or Russia sanctioning their father who feeds and provides them with everything that they need to survive on a daily.

It is obvious that most of these European leaders are naive and too young to understand what Russia truly is..this is yet one disadvantage of electing inexperienced youngies to power. The older folks wouldn't have been this stupid to bite the finger constantly feeding their greed and consumption.

By the end of this murder-suicide, they all embarked upon, na that time dem go understand say na Russia be their real papa.

When Russia dey talk of (MAD) Mutually Assured Destruction- their mind only settle for nuclear war dem no know say Russia understand say all of dem dey tied to Russia apron strings.

A gallon of gas in the US is now topping almost $6 and sleepy Joe get mouth dey tell him people say an Russia cause am...

Na the coming winter everybody body go cool down...

Yeye egoists.

Succinctly put.

A shameless mentally derange ediotic comedian playing deadly politics with the destiny and lives of his people and country. This is the kind of leader no nation prays to have.

The cocaine addicted psycho leader was quick to give Russian forces losses in 'exact' numbers, not even an estimate. Yet, he is unable to provide figures for Ukrainian dead soldiers.

If Russia has lost 32,000 soldiers, it's common sense that Ukraine has lost 5 times that amount. In Mariupol alone, the Azov brigade and additional units were made up of about 14,000 men. About 3000 surrendered later, and the rest were completely wiped out. Now, take into consideration the rest of Ukrainian deaths in other cities and villages and you will understand the collosal losses this man has caused Ukraine to suffer.

Ukriane has already conscripted the country for the 5th time, which means he has already lost about a third of the country's 700,000 regular strong army. You wouldn't be mobilizing for the fifth time if you are not losing men like mad.

The Hungarian foreign minister and Paliament leader were right when they said that Zelensky has a mental problem. It's obvious when you watch his telecast and choice of words and commanding demands. Which beggar seeking for help insults his would be helper and threatens them? This man is crazy. No wonder many Ukrainian soldiers are.now refusing to fight anymore. The guy is a mad case walking.

Tufieeeh!!!

leofab:
they are doing it and more weapons are coming.. russian is running out of ammo and ukraine is getting more ammo; just a matter of time before the battle feild gets balanced.

Russia running out of ammo? Are you seriously trolling or just regurgating Lamestream media nonesense?

seunny4lif:
The Russian Central Bank further lowered the interest rate to 9.5% (from 11%), returning it to the pre-sanctions level.

Imagine country on sanctions

They prepared well for this. Russia always a step ahead.

Svlla:
I told them earlier, weeks ago that there will be another Mauripol in Severedonesk Azot plant

There may be more than 400 fighters there and a significant number of foreign mercenaries.

If it is just the Ukrainias they would have surrendered knowing their lives are guaranteed but foreigners have taken objective stock from the trials of Aiden, Pinner and the morrocan in DPR and its making them anxious

I bet you there are French and British in Azot plant

From Azov plant to Azot plant, the way Russia get Ukie troops encicled in a cauldron is something western military planners will find very unpalatable. No modern forces fights like this.
