I don't really follow politics that much but yet I know that that doesn't matter.
America's main enemy right now is China, and not even Russia.
If you're on reddit, join the geopolitics subreddit and although the sub is filled with biased Europeans you should join and get yourself enlightened on current world politics.

India is very much needed by US if they want to stand a chance at all against China. And for the source I promised to drop earlier here you go

"As it is, under normal circumstances, the CAATSA sees interactions with the sanctioned countries as “persons” in 12 categories, but 10 of them will not ordinarily apply to India for its purchase of S-400."

"Since India generally imports weapons following decisions made either by the Defence Acquisition Council (DAC) headed by the Defence Minister or the Defence Procurement Board (DPB) headed by the Defence Secretary, it is they, not the country as such, will come under CAATSA restrictions provided they, as persons, seek loans from the US, apply for American visas or buy American properties and so on."

"Turkey’s case, unlike India, is different. Turkey, as a member of NATO, is predominantly dealing with the Western arms in general and the American systems in particular."

"The Americans have a legitimate fear that the purchase and pursuit of the S-400 system would endanger the security of US military technology and personnel. That is precisely the reason why the US has decided to backtrack from its decision of providing the F-35 aircraft to Turkey."

Two different scenarios.

I'm sorry if I'm sounding rude. Did you not read where I wrote that the USA had placed a sanction on Russia? And that any country that purchases weapons from them would be sanctioned? Do you want me to give you sources?

USA sanctioning turkey for purchasing s400 has nothing to do with their alliance. They sanctioned them because a law has been placed to sanction anyone who purchases weapons from Russia.

The reason why they haven't sanctioned India right now is because they don't want to be on the bad side of India, since they need them on their side for China.

Let me drop a few sources let it not look like I'm just making assumptions to bash the US

India are fighting China and Pakistan at the same time. Who needs who in that scenario.

abeg drop your quotes as usual. I'm waiting

US turns blind eyes to turkeys misbehaviors? Nice joke. The same USA that slapped turkey with sanctions the moment they purchased s400 Surface to air defence systems?

Theyve been going for Russian weapons and hardwares lately and the only reason they're still in NATO is for the benefits.

While I agree that the US treat their neighbour's kindly, I also want you to know that they aren't doing it out of love. They're doing it because if any of those countries chooses to align with their Rivals, it wouldn't be good for them. They treat them right so that they wouldn't prefer their Rivals to them which I agree the Russians should be doing with Ukraine but that doesn't mean the USA aren't also hypocrites.

Recently India had been buying weapons from Russia (USA had sanctioned russia from selling weapons to others since they annex Crimea and have threatened to place sanctions on anyone who buys from them).

Now, they banned turkey who they consider allies for buying S400.
India purchased about 8 abi ten not long ago but received not even a threat.
India and putin recently had a meeting. They have signed deals to trade oil, weapons, military hardwares etc yet no warning from the USA.

Why is that? Isn't it because they need India to tackle China? Favoritism and USA are like 5&6 and the reason why they haven't lashed out at India is because they're needed in their plan.

I'm happy India has chosen to remain neutral.

Back to what I was saying. The US does these things not because of love. It's because of their selfish interest which I of course agree with you that Russia should try to improve on

while I wasn't on this thread for US vs Russia. if you want us to go that way we can still do it. but these days I just want to stay off nairaland debate so I might not do that in the end though.

You guys always take isolated situation and try to turn it to a fact.
Turkey is part of NATO, it's a requirement to only buy weapon systems that are NATO approved or integrated. France will never use the Sidewinder Aim9x air to air missile. US will never use any other country's weapon aside their but the French fighter jets can shoot the AIM 9 and the F16 can shoot the meteor missile. You get the point now. What Turkey did why bought a system that is dangerous to the overall defense of NATO.
Russia can't let NATO inspect the S-400 so there's no idea if that system is pinging info back to Russia.

India has no such agreement with US. India are free to do as it pleases. The US only advised them not to get it but they still went ahead. that scenario has nothing to do with containing China.
India only started buying US systems again of recent. They didn't use to do that because of the previous incident where the US refused to sell weapons system for jets India had already acquired because of Human rights violations and all that.

so you see your point to someone that doesnt know will make perfect sense and sound reasonable when it actually isn't.

MangekyoAlt:

Admitting that USA would act THE SAME WAY the Russians are acting now if Canada aligns with Russia is the most sensible thing I've seen from you yet.

Now you were asking about why Canada still sticks to the US and why Ukraine hasn't with Russia.
Well the USA runs the world. They're world power. Even if they aren't treating Canadians right, they would still try to keep their relationship intact. Why is that? The reason is because they're benefitting from the relationship with US either financially, NATO security etc.

I'm aware that Russia can be aggressive towards them at times but it is obvious their main purpose of wanting to form an alliance with us would is for the benefits which they won't get with Russia.

Russia though a regional power are still suffering from sanctions and western propaganda. Nothing much would be gained from picking them ahead or the west as allies. Which is why I said I understand their resolve to opt for the west who currently dictate everything that happens in the world right now.

Meanwhile, Russia isn't against them having relationships with them. What they don't want and the reason why there is tension today is because they want assurance from both Ukraine and NATO that weapons that can be used to hurt Russians in the future wouldn't be installed in Ukraine or anywhere close to their borders.

Putin has said he would De-escalate everything once that assurance is made. He didnt say Ukraine wouldn't be allowed to Ave any relationship with the west if that is what they truly want.

Now you came rattling about how russia Should not do anything, just sit thigjt and fold their hands, because Ukraine is a sovereign state. Russia doesn't care. If Ukraine takes decision that would undermine Russian securities, then they would be attacked. No hard feelings.

Also, the way you pro west, black Africans keep talking as if the US are saints themselves. Russia isn't perfect, but the US are little to no better either.

They have been aggressive to many nations in the middle east and you guys don't talk about it even when they cry out just because it is the USA and they're always right.

Have they not been invading countries and even sovereign ones at that, before? Is that not an act of aggression.? Stop making a big deal out of the Russian-Ukraine relationship

I've already addressed what you assume is economic benefits so I won't do that again.

Like I keep repeating I'm not here for the usual US and Russia.
You keep overlooking Ukraine sovereignty like it's nothing because you know Russia.
Russia should have been more accomodating of Ukraine even if they are a hot head.
Case-in-point: Turkey. If you know anything about NATO, you'd know how much leg room is given to Turkey. They do provide the leg soldiers but they are given a bit more freedom because of their strategic importance to NATO. If Turkey joins the Russia bloc, they open up mainland Europe. To avoid that scenario, a blind eye to turned to some of Turkey's behavior.

Russia should have envisioned this scenario since day one that if Ukraine were to turn to NATO, they will be in a peculiar situation so anything Ukraine should be handled with a little more finesse but what did they do in reality. The complete opposite, instead trying to use brute force to command obedience forgetting like you're doing now that Ukraine is a sovereign state. They make their own decisions.

You can treat your brother harshly and then turn around and say He shouldn't do that because I am a public figure, it will reflect badly on me. Instead you try to butter him up to your side more to cover your ass. which has been my whole point from the beginning.

Russia being exposed to NATO attack and defense equipments is all on Russia. They shouldn't have allow it come to that point in the first place.

Like I have always said, I don't know for others, the US are not saint either but look how the treat other countries and look how the treat Canada and Mexico. Alaska would not have been better protected from Russia by Canada and the US did the needful and took it as their own amicably even when the location shows its Canada. If it was another country far away from US, we both know the scenario would be difference.

I now know what your problem is. You're dumb. Clearly. Haven't I answered the question you keep asking me already? Or you just skipped or probably don't even know how to read?

You came rattling all over the thread about how russia should allow Ukraine to do whatever they like, even Undermining the security of Russians, just because they're a sovereign state.

I then asked you if you knew of how man "sovereign" states the United States and allies have breached? You turned dumb in an instant. Repeating your pathetic questions to me..

What does who the Ukrainians chose to align with have to do with the article? If my previous answer to you doesn't satisfy you which is understandable since you're a brainwashed pro west African. Well I'll add to it.

An alliance with the west and Russia, which would be more beneficiary for any country?

personal attacks won't work here bro. If you know me you should know I don't roll on that level. I only tell you what is and what is not.
As with all agenda, it's stand to the death.

And to show how bias you are. First you said, why are other Countries in the Eastern region Pro Russia to emphasize on your point that Ukraine hates Russia that's why they want to join NATO. (which doesn't answer the question of "cause"wink. Then you come up with economic benefits. So those other countries you were proudly showing off as Pro Russia, aren't they interested in this Economic benefits or what?

At this point I can only conclude you don't know the answer to the question. So don't stress your head.

Secondly since you don't know, joining NATO while nice and fun isn't all roses. You keep to be there, you pay the foreign soldiers in your country if they are stationed there. You pay to buy equipments. You cede you sovereignty over those bases.
The nuclear arsenal in Germany is controlled by then US not Germany that it's stationed in. Germany has no say over its use. They only courtesy the receive is that they will be informed beforehand about its launched but they aren't involved in the decision process.
Japan pays to keep US soldiers on its island and cede sovereignty over the island. Any attrocities committed their is subject to US laws.
You only buy NATO approved weapons and platform.
That's what joining NATO is like, not all bed and roses.
Mexico aren't part of NATO but they enjoy defense coverage from the US because they are its neighbor.

My point which you so arrogantly misinterpreted was all about how to blatantly overlook Ukraine sovereignty because you're Pro Russia. Your whole idea and reasoning is centered on why should Russia allow Ukraine to chose for themselves not why is Ukraine that way in the first place.

Leaving all the West and Russia aside, even in real life, they way you treat people that knows your under-doings is different from the way you treat others. Which is my whole point, which is partly the answer to the cause.
I even brought China for further emphasis.
The US are amicable with its neighbors, e get why but Russia wants to Lord over them and then shout foul when they choose the enemy.
Ukraine should be pampered by Russia but every time they have opportunity to do so, they chose to show how powerful they are. it's nice to do that to others not to your neighbors that are in your backyard.
Nothing can dispute that facts. Agenda or otherwise

Oga you're talking trash. Rubbish.
The USSR was one before. Before they broke into diff states who gained independence, did that empty brain of yours not know that they had their differences?

Were the US, Canada, and Mexico one country before? Why then do you compare them to Russia and Ukraine, Russia and Georgia or China and Taiwan? Are Ukraine and Georgia the only country that share borders with Russia? Why then are they the only ones wailing?

Ukraine disliking Russia is understandable. They were one before before they broke off and formed their own state.

If Biafra were to break off from Nigeria today, it wouldn't surprise anyone if they decide to go form an alliance with other countries and not Nigeria since both people had that differences before they decided to break off.

Like I asked that brain of yours before. If Canada allowed russia to go into their country and build military bases and missile systems, how would the USA react?

Dude!.
Which Country burned down the White House?
Which Country did the US annexed New Mexico from?
How did the US even become a state?
Have you ever read of the fights between Britain, France; Spain, Portugal?
Let me not even talk about Germany.
Turkey and Greece are fighting over a gulf.
Japan was bombed by the US.
Are those all not differences?
but when it was cause for the greater good, they set aside their differences and worked together.
Working together doesn't mean the like each other.
The US is not really loved in France.
Japan dislikes South Korea but the have a unifying figure in America.

Russia was supposed to be the Mother bear for the Eastern states but how well have they done that.
China was supposed to be the unifying figure in Asia but how well are they doing that.
They are so focused on world domination that they are exposing their Achilles heels.

I'm not here today to engage in the useless America and Russia tic for tac on Nairaland.
All I'm saying and still saying is what causes these countries to choose NATO?

I'm not avoiding your question just don't want to answer it because I know how this plays out on Nairaland. so if I answer it maybe you will finally answer mine or as usual you'll come up with another ridiculous one.
Yes, the US will rain down fire and brimstone if Canada considers Russia. (You're happy, bravo!).
Now why hasn't Canada chose Russia? You see? The US knows they don't want the enemy close to home so I pointed out since my first post and you still don't grasp something so simple, they allow Canada a lot of leg room so that in any scenario, Canada will always be pro west.
They do sanctioned Canada if you must know.
Why isn't Russia playing the same ball with her own backyard. Go figure

You're also trying to push your a gender here mate. You claimed russia should sit tight and allow Ukraine to bring in a people they consider as enemies to come build military equipments just at their border that can be used to harm their citizens whenever they like, just because they're a sovereign state.
Should I begin to list how many "sovereign" states the United States and allies have invaded? Or is the US now the only country that can invade sovereign states whenever they don't like what's going on in it and others can't? Stop being a hypocrite.

After the fall of the soviet union, Ukraines share of nuclear warheads was past 2k. They were the 3rd most powerful country just behind USA and Russia. Guess what? USA told them to dispose those nuclear weapons else they'll be treated as a "rough" country by them and the international community. (the USA who currently have nuclear weapons telling another to dispose theirs off else they'll be treated as rough. Why haven't they disposed theirs? Hypocrites). Now Britain and us promised Ukraine protection once they get rid of those nuclear weapons. Ukraine did, and today they're no more feared by any country.

Back to my point. If Ukraine had those weapons, Russia wouldn't have dared to set a foot on Ukraine when they annexed Crimea. Their military might does not compare to that of the Russian. And who are the cause of it? Let me see it you're sensible.

The same people who claimed they would protect them after letting go of ALL THEIR DANGEROUS WEAPONS. Imagine me telling you to get rid of your gun while I have one, promising to protect you with mine. Ukrainians are the dumbest people in the world, while us being the hypocrites

comprehension is really the problem.
I ask a simple question and I'm sure you know the answer will expose your stand badly hence why you're dodging it and trying to engage in tattle tales.
I may be pro west but on this post. I haven't look to push any agenda just asked a simple question and you're all over the place.

Lmao you really think Canada and Mexico are being the sidekicks of the US just because the US had been peaceful to them?
LMFAO you should try to make research for yourself. At least Google wouldn't lie. USA currently have plans set to invade Canada the moment Canada tries any nonsense wiry them. Those plans had been made way back to the 1800's and Canada know it
It is possible that the USA have even made plans on how to invade every country on this earth.

The USA and Britain are even the reason why Ukraine are in this situation today. Ask me why?

That would depend on how the US treats this tbh. Russian strongman, Vlamidir Putin has been trying to negotiate and reach a deal with the NATO to stop expanding eastwards. He said it would criminal for him to sit down and watch Ukraine join NATO, giving US and allies the green light to build short ranged ballistic missiles and other missile systems just outside its borders. Take note, a short ranged missile when fired from just outside a countries border, would be impossible to take down because of the lack of time to react. Such missile would take just 5 minutes to reach Moscow from Ukraine. So I 100% understand why putin is trying to reach a deal with them to stop expanding to the east and to countries that share border with them.

What is going to cause war now is the USA forming strong head. They issuing empty threats about blasting russia with nuclear weapons. Biden has threatened putin that his "red lines" claims would fall on deaf ears and that there's nothing he can do about them adding Ukraine into NATO.

From a Russian perspective, it is only war that can help protect their interest and securities now.

They need to take over the part of Ukraine that share borders with them, if not even the entire Ukraine.

So maybe yes. If efforts aren't put to disperse this tension, WW3 may come be sooner than we expect

I like how you grossly overlook the facts that Ukraine is a sovereign nation and with that have the right to do as it pleases.
if Russia doesn't want NATO close to it's backyards then stop bullying your neighbors to show influence and power.
Ever wonder why the US is always very quick to resolve issues with Mexico and Canada??
China is now doing the same thing as Russia and what is the result?
more countries in the SCS are joining pacts with the US.
They are not doing it because the like the US, they are doing it to survive.

But sure, let's overlook that facts are pain America as the bad guys. You know that usually makes the headlines

You are almost correct my brother but Men differ!! Men are extremely stubborn and are not easily convinced, not even by ones lifestyle.

Noah preached about a deluge of water coming to destroy the earth. It took him about 55-75 years constructing that ark and warning people to come over and be saved.

Yet they ridiculed and insulted him. Animals obeyed God while men disobeyed. We are warning men like Noah did in those days. Save yourself from the coming destruction. The destruction of the earth is sure.

The earth will be completely covered in fire and destroyed, this is not crazy or fictional talk. This is the truth. I personally have researched it and found it to be true.


Noah's time was different.
The Bible let us know that not everyone that calls "Lord, Lord" will enter into the Kingdom of heaven.
The Bible also tell us that those that continues in sin should continue and those that walks in the light should do so as every man will be judged on the last day.

The point of my debate is that when you're focusing on what will happen (Armageddon), you're not converting people to believe in God or love him which is the main criteria as indicated in John 3 : 16. But you're converting them based on fear of what lies before them which we as mortals don't know if that will qualify you to enter everlasting life.

Another scenario, if say a Councilor of a particular ward, tells his/her people that any family that doesnt come out to greet the Governor as he passes by, their house will be demolished and burned down.
It stands to reason that even if the Governor isn't love by the people there, a lot of people will come out to greet the Governor not because the love him but because they don't want their house to be demolished.
which if we interpolate with the end time begs the question.
Will that be enough to grant eternal life

For it will come as a snare on all those who dwell on the face of the whole earth. Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man

he's not talking trash.... what our resident pastor and you are trying to do can be equated to waiting until the exams time to go and read.
If you truly love God, you don't have to wait and see the signs of the end time to go and repent. That's pretending in a nutshell.
If you want to convert souls to God, you live a wonderful Christian virtuous life, so that by your doings others can change and change wholeheartedly not telling them, tomorrow you'll be in total condemnation if you don't repent. They are not repenting because the love God but because as you are pointing out they don't want to be condemned.

Who was the standout performer for Portugal if not Ronaldo at the Euros, real quick?

It was you that used goals scored to define the single handedly, so, I replied with the top scorer for the teams that win their Continental Cups.

Did Mba single handedly take Nigeria to the AFCON trophy?

Once again, it is a TEAM Sport, so, you cannot use the term single-handedly. You can use other terms to describe a player's contributions, but single-handedly?

LOL....Abeh

Understanding! Understanding!!!

I said Messi contributed 9 goals and you assumed I meant he scored 9 goals which goes to show you have no idea about the Copa America beyond Argentina won.
How many matches in that tournament did you watch, "I follow football for a decade", I'll bet 5k, none. But you base your logic on nothing and you're shouting like you know anything.

Mr.man bring your stats on the table

Lol, you're funny grin grin, what took you time to reply, your reply even looks funny, the stats is fake, omitting bundesliga player of the year and adding highest assiter is rubbish, so just throw-away that shit.
Dfb pokal too omitted

The person is sick on the head.
It's clear, is a Messi fan that wrote the thrash grin


this is your direct quote

Mr.man stop running around, bring your stats on the table.

from your previous post you replied to the other guy it's obvious you don't even know the year 2021. DFB Pokal that was won by Dortmund, you called it for Bayern.

The only thing Lewandowski won was Bundesliga, SuperCup and Club World Cup.
In the Euros which usually plays a big part He wasn't influential, couldn't get Poland out of the group stage.

There were 170 journalists that voted, their list has been released by FF, there are some using the criteria that voted for Jorginho as #1, there's some for Kante, there are some that even omitted Messi and Lewandowski from their Top 5.
At the end, each player's tally was calculated and the highest tally won so how did Lewandowski deserve to win??

Logic over sentiment. If you're looking for who to go back and forth with, I'm tired, been doing this ish ever since Messi won. So you your phone, get a piece of paper and argue with yourself

So, I can then say Ronaldo Single-handedly led Portugal to the Euros ?

Emenike single-handedly led Nigeria to the AFCON trophy?

Nobody can single-handedly do anything in a TEAM SPORT

If he scored 9 goals and Emiliano Martinez allowed 20 goals, Argentina would not have a trophy.

Use the right terms next time. He did not single-handedly do anything, and stop trying to change the meaning of a term because you realise it was used wrongly.

comprehension will do you a lot of good.
Ronaldo wasn't the stand out performer for

Portugal in their Euros run, he scored goals no doubt
just like Emenike wasn't for Nigeria.

that term has been used for so long now in football so instead of going to look at the dictionary meaning maybe do research on scenarios where the term has been used and compare with what you're saying.

It's not that hard

Doesn't change the fact Messi thief thief is struggling in a weak league.

Damn! Lewy would tear up the league every fucking day if he were in that PSG team, but place Ronaldo there and it would be a fụ̀cking tsunami. grin And guess what, you already know this!

Goals win matches, nicca. Messi should save his team and score some fucking goals like Ronaldo does.
If you don't gerrit, forgerrabourrit brah!

they are 11 points ahead in the league, they have qualified for the next round of the UCL.
Where was Ronaldo against Liverpool, Man City, Watford or even Crystal Palace.
Dude if you like Ronaldo then like Ronaldo, nobody dey force you to carry PSG win for your ticket

Single-handedly implies "without help from anyone else", I hope you understand.

So, how did he single-handedly lead Argentina to Copa America when it was established that other players scored the goals needed to give Argentina that trophy?

Some of you need to know how to use words properly, it's embarrassing.

single-handedly isn't used with its meaning in context when talking about football.
Argentina scored 12 goals in Copa America, out of the 12, Messi contributed to 9 of those. add to the fact he was their captain, that qualifies as single-handedly.
Maradona is being touted as single-handedly leading Napoli to 2 Seria A championship but he wasn't the only one scoring the goals. His performance was so good, it qualifies to use the phrase.

In situations where there's no one individual brilliance in a team that won, the praises goes to the Captain. " He led the team ......."

so yeah, Messi single-handedly led Argentina to the Copa America

Be very honest with yourself, ma nicca.
Remember Cr7 in Turin? Now place Messi in that same Juventus team and tell me what you think would happen.

Now also put Cr7 in this PSG team: do you think he would struggle like Messi currently is?

what's with the placing and placing.
Ronaldo only goes after the final ball, the last time Messi played that way He scored 91 goals and gave more assists than Xavi and Iniesta combined that year.
Leave livescores, how many PSG match have you watched??
Mbappe has been missing chances week in week out, not saying Messi hasn't either but you'll never heard that side of the story.
This PSG team is constructed with Mbappe as the protagonist, that's coming from their sporting director's mouth, they are doing everything to make him stay but papers won't sale if they use Mbappe name.
Do watch their matches unless you just after agenda then it's still good
