⚡️ From The Leaked 📄 Documents.

🇺🇸 🇬🇧 🇪🇺 100 NATO special Forces
71 security and intelligence
29 with boots on the ground.
So-called mercenaries were NATO regular forces in the most instances, and that is why they have been seriously mad at Russia because they keep killing their men on the frontlines. Since they cannot openly admit it, they could only double down on the war by sending more men and armament as revenge for their lost soldiers. Of course, the damn Russians are playing along like it's normal mercenaries. cool

You're deluded if you think America is more diverse than China.

China is multi racial right?
Have you ever, in your staggering wellbeing called life, seen a Mexican Chinese, Black Chinese or Arabian Chinese ?
Don’t you understand that Conformity is to Communism what diversity is to democracy?
Do you even know the meaning of diversity?
Smh.

Your brain need servicing.
You're sounding more like an intelligent jingoist with no avalanche of knowledge. cheesy

To your warped headed parody you called reasoning, the existence of multiple ethnicities in a given society isn't diversity? grin

It's folks like you that keep disgracing the black race.

You're defining diversity strictly on the basis of color, you need to go back to school and let your teacher lie you face down and give you 96 strokes on your back so the vibes of correction on your spinal cord can send some sense up ya dead-sea brain grin, otherwise refund your parents their money. cool

Why do you think Nigeria is described as 'highly diverse?' Yet with no white people?

Democracy my foot. So you don't know that the US isn't a true democracy? grin

That is not the case here sir. Find out more please. America never bullied and threatened Canada with war if they will choose to have a diplomatic relationship with another country. China and Taiwan are same people but marginalisation and bullying of the people of Taiwan made them to choose their path since the mainland China sees them with inferiority complex.
I call that flimsy excuses. Doesn't the white ruling class in America bullied and maltreat the black Americans, and subjugated them for years? Till date, black Americans are still treated as inferior race in America, subjected to the most inhuman, bias and unjust treatment you can think of. But, did any of them or any outside country meddled in their internal affairs to encourage them to take up arms and fight the white dominated government and it's unjust justice system or secede? None.

So why should same America lecture other countries how to behave when they do the same thing?

Russia afraid of USA, when?
Which country changed the route of her drones after Russia military bought one down?
Which country made noise on regime change on Syria but failed massively due to Russia?
CIA director and many USA top USA secret services agencies traveled to Moscow and It took USA government 6 months to be able to get permission from Russia before Biden was allowed to visit Kyiv, USA kept it secret that even USA allies don’t even know about it until the Moscow approved it.

When Russia smashed Georgia, it was France and Germany that were was able to calm Medvedev as USA president then Bush can only watch from afar.

Russia took back Crimea and banned any war ships from visiting Mauripol until Russia finally seized the city last year.

Russia started a war with Ukraine, blocked half of Black Sea and warned anyone from sending ships, immediately almighty USA withdrew her ships from there. Even when Ukraine was begging NATO members to send ships since three members of NATO shared the sea with Russia.

A war between Russia and USA is not going to about matching foot soldiers, it’s nuclear war.
Simple.
Go and see USA law on attack on her home land.

USA have everything to lose a war against Russia compare to Russia with will have few things to lose.
Russia don’t own over 800 military bases around the world.
Russia is not the world police
Russia is not the world tech centre.
You even have all the time to lecture these kids. Hollywood have done so much harm to their sense of comprehension. I like reading and laughing from the sidelines at such comments. cool

If they cannot learn from the mere fact that a country that has more than 10,000 sanctions slapped on it is doing well, and even better than some of the nations that slapped sanctions on it, then there is no need trying to educate them about what would happen when push comes to shoves.

Just let them thrive in their ignorance. cool

Security/military/economic alliance cannot be effective without captain of the alliance. US is captain of NATO. Who is captain of BRICS and CTSO.

Nagorno-Karabakh War is ongoing. CTSO territory. Captain is busy in Ukraine.
China troops have been moved to india border with China due to hostility between the 2 nations. No captain.
Greek v Turkey hostility- under control. Captain is doing his work.
Can military alliance stop wars? NO. Human leaders have beast-ike attitude looking for flesh to devour.
On the contrary, alliance formations are precursor to war. Same events that led to WW1 and WW2 -- economic and military alliances-- are repeating themselves now. Some nations are now even considering switching to military economy; that should give you a grim picture of what is brewing right now. It doesn't matter who is captain or not. Any major war that breaks out now would mean the end of the 21st century as we know it. Life would be reeled back to the 11th century. We better pray it shouldn't happen in our time.

Sir... from what I notice, Taiwan is the one running to the US.... Why are they running away from China?

I'm thinking maybe China should call them as a big brother and maybe negotiate, instead of brute force?
Taiwan isn't running to the US, is the US sticking its dirty troubling nose to stir an already muddy water.

Taiwan seek outright independence from China, which no sane nation would allow just as China didn't allow it. The US is just seizing the opportunity to assert itself and cause economic and political rancour, especially considering that Taiwan is a major player in Chip production. If not for the Chip market, the US wouldn't even blink an eye whether China is bleeping Taiwan up and down. The US is just an opportunist seizing the moment to settle economic and political scores with China, just as they're doing with Ukraine against Russia.

This just shows you're a child in international politics. People are increasingly hating on the United States because they are the once terrorising people from one state to another.

What kind of foolish imagination be disuan?
Do you know the degree of diversity the American system deals with on a daily that China can't handle?
In their waywardness or radical state, no American state would seek a communist support if she wants to break away.
Americans that are too tied and addicted to their government. Government wey dey pamper.

Why are the Islamic extremists and jihadists here on nairaland so terribly stupid?
Tell that to Texas and the separatist movement growing there now. You're deluded if you think America is more diverse than China.

⚡️ 🇧🇬 Bulgaria will close its ports to all 🇷🇺 Russian ships

The Bulgarian authorities close their ports to all Russian ships, regardless of the flag under which they sail, according to PortSEurope.

The decision comes into force on April 8 and is associated with the directive of the 🇪🇺 European Union on the implementation of sanctions.

Ships UNDER 🇷🇺 Russian flags already cannot enter Bulgarian ports. The country's Maritime Administration set the ban on April 17 as part of the fifth package of EU sanctions, making an exception only for deliveries of critical products from Russia.

Now, the ban is being expanded: vessels registered with the Russian Maritime Register of Shipping will not be able to enter 🇧🇬 Bulgarian ports, both sea and river.
More self-inflicted harm to their economies. These midget nations won't learn that the world has since moved away from the Western Bloc led tightfisted hegemonic economic control to a more multipolar version of BRICS where everyone's interest count. Once the BRICS come up with their currency plan next September, it would be too late for them to realise what they have done to themselves.

⚡️ 🇺🇦 Ukraine ‘ready’ to talk to 🇷🇺 Russia on Crimea if counteroffensive succeeds.

🇺🇦 Kyiv is willing to discuss the future of Crimea with Moscow if its forces reach the border of the 🇷🇺 Russian-occupied peninsula, a top adviser to President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has told the Financial Times.

The comments by Andriy Sybiha, deputy head of Zelenskyy’s office, are the most explicit statement of Ukraine’s interest in negotiations since it cut off peace talks with the Kremlin last April.

“If we will succeed in achieving our strategic goals on the battlefield and when we will be on the administrative border with Crimea, we are ready to open [a] diplomatic page to discuss this issue,” Sybiha said, referring to Kyiv’s long-planned counteroffensive.

He added: “It doesn’t mean that we exclude the way of liberation [of Crimea] by our army.”

Who is China to dictate who visits or does not visit Taiwan? Why are not bullying Taiwan, just like Russia bullying Ukraine?

It is not by force for Taiwan to love China or for Ukraine to love Russia. If you are true leader and Super power allow these other smaller countries to flock to you, don’t use your might, power and money to subdue them.

Go and read the beatitudes in the Bible, when Jesus was addressing Peacemakers, He was actually calling the name of USA….not toothless loud mouthed fellows like Russia who told us they will run down Ukraine in two days, but getting to two years now, they are stuck in a quagmire or China whose economy was solely powered by US consumer power.

The battle for semi conductor won’t be an easy one as US will never let China an easy ride in Taiwan.

China has not fought any modern war and looking to test run with Taiwan. They may be making the biggest mistake of the 21st century. They have come far from where they are about 4 decades ago doesnt mean they have arrived. And they are about to reveal their weakness to the world by the time they start a war they will never win.
Taiwan will not even last 48 hours in a full blown war with the motherland.

At the bolded, read up what happened when China "entered the Dragon" in the Korean War. Thousands of body bags of Americans were returned home. China don't play the "mother and child spanking" style like Russia is going with Ukraine.

We should stop projecting and sue for peace. The US is the problem of this world.
