Russia crushed napoleon
Military before his military fell in other places

You can research
Napoleon
Already had taken most of Europe

Without Russia crushing military tactic that destroyed napoleon military
He would have been successful

Every other places.
guy calm down
Your love for Russia is making you to forget everybody
Alexander I tsar of Russia played his part
The Prussians played there part
The British played there part
But the Waterloo campaign was the last straw that broke the camel's back

Russia transport there soldiers alot in BTR's and BMP's
When they are hit
They become part of the internal body paint
If you know what I mean
Similar to a tank
And the body exchange can be just from a single side of the front lines not over all everywhere

You forgot they had no nuke then unlike today


NATO can't survive nuke war take it to the bank
please when were you born
2005?
Soviets had nuclear weapons let's say 1948 or later but by the 1950's they mastered it
So who did you say had no nuke again?
No NATION on earth can survive a nuclear war

Russia was also heavily sanctioned in 2014 after annexing Crimea. Did that stop it from executing the 2022 special military operation?


Lol you don’t understand Russia. You will.... Soon.
that one was IT
You forgot Russia hosted the 2018 world cup
If it was heavily sanctioned as you claim
FIFA would have cancelled it
Alot of nations would have boycott it especially the rainbow nation
This one now is sanction
Not the IT of 2014

Funny shows you don't know Russia history

They ask napoleon for peace and told him they don't want to fight him he said no at the end napoleon
Died in shame

They were friends with Hitler until Hitler changed they then asked Hitler for peace too
Hitler said no at the end Hitler killed himself

Don't joke with mother Russia when it asked you to come in peace.
you forgot that was tsar Russia and the Soviet Union
Not this one man show.

We call for turning the tragic page of history and gradually restoring relations with Ukraine and Europe.

Basic agreements on a peaceful settlement must be fixed by international treaties; naturally, the lifting of sanctions against Russia is also expected.
seems Putin just admit that sanctions is biting hard
WriteerNG propaganda is never true
Always read from both sides to understand

What about the rest of the world?

China is the WORLD FACTORY, not US/West factory.

80% of the world is poor.

If they move production to their countries, no one in the poor countries would buy their products. Even their own citizens would not be able to afford it. That's a fact.

China would still retain the said 80% of the world's poor population as a client.

China has made more millionaires in Nigeria than the US. Visit Aba, Onitsha, Owerri and the business hubs of Lagos and see for yourself.

Millions of Nigerians including yourself are able to use a smartphone today, thanks to China.

because the west don't have a choice... Which country will take up production in the west? China needs the west much as the west needs China.
It's different for Russia as their main export is oil and raw materials you cannot sanctions such a country, China is in their backyard they need oil like kilode.
World geopolitics is different and the west often think it controls it but they learnt a really good lesson with sanctioning Russia
if China wakes up today and says, I no dey do again
The whole world will crash BUT in a few years time India will take over as the world manufacturing giant
They have the population
The cheap labour
The cheap currency
India is slowly catching up and if China makes the mistake of joining a world war.
You know the rest.
China got popular after the world war and the Korean war.
Go find out who was the main manufacturing giant b4 the war.
Russia has what everyone has
Saudi oil is there
Naija is there etc
Sanctions is sanctions
Tarrif plan all over the west increased but they still have 24/7 light.
Speaking from experience.
Those raw materials aren't exclusive to Russia.

The US combined with the G7 + NATO doesn't even control up to 60% of the world economy.

And they'll lose even more control if just 20 countries stop using the dollar and euro.

Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia and other big producing nations in Asia will be joining BRICS.
beware of Thailand
Number one US ally in southeast Asia
Might even be joining because the US needs an inside eye

China is also a sanctioned country. With over 1000 sanctions in critical industries.

Nigeria isn't sanctioned. Compare both countries.

Iran was sanctioned in the military sphere, they still got everything they were sanctioned for anyway. Same as North Korea.

Is there any country in the west can be compared to China in terms of growth and innovation.

Even combined, can they even match China? NO!
China is still growing because the west is still manufacturing almost all there products there
They are still China biggest customer
And China will do everything not to lose that
Military warfare is different from trade warfare

[quote author=WriteerNg post=130468081]How about taking control of the manufacturing and supplying the finished product to buyers from around the world, including the US?

Some nations do it. Those nations are termed as State controlled or dictatorship by the West.
[/quote ]that's where boycott comes in
You have to sale at a loss
And that's not good for economy
Ok remember when Kanye West was cancelled for antisemitism comments and Adidas refused to partner with him
The black community boycott the Yeezy footwear and Adidas lost over a billion dollars they had to renegotiate.
That's what am trying to tell you.

What goods does the West even have? Name them please.

Can't the government of the said country take control over the manufacturing contracts??
and supply the finished product to who?
The person who told you to manufacture this will always be the biggest buyer of that.
Take Nike shoes(Jordans, air force one, etc)for instance
Who is one of the manufacturing contractor
China
Who uses it more
USA

There's always a solution to every problem. ALWAYS!

In this case, the solution is to stop using any western product or services. And diversify. Start trading with as many countries as possible.
those countries you want them to trade with rely on the goods and services of the west.
Take China for instance
Who gave them all the manufacturing contracts.

Russia's weak spot was trading with western currencies and opening their doors to western media and services.

But Russia is working to correct that.
How's that working for Cuba and North Korea

One thing you should know. No matter how I hate the west, one thing is for sure
They are an economic powerhouse
You can see the difference between when former Soviet Union states where in the USSR and now when they are in NATO.
Its not always about military safety but economic development too. Russia needs the goods and services of the west to move forward
No man is an island

It seems like you're new to Twitter?

2 years ago Russian bank collapse trended om Twitter, how did that end?

They showed the same queue of people trying to sell off their dollars in 2022.

Check the photos. 95% of them were recycled from 2022.

Russia bank collapsed but 1 USD was about 87 Rubles yesterday.

A year ago it was 93 or so.
when banks collapse
It doesn't mean a sudden death
It's a slow process,from 2022 till now. Go and ask the average Russian in Moscow not other parts of Russia
Just Moscow
You will know what the sanctions is doing to them
Take a look at Nigeria as the dollar is increasing.
Does it affect the politicians or those close to them
No.
It's the common man
No matter what they tell you
Russians are suffering and they don't want you to know.

We'll see if they're still a military economy when other countries stop trading in dollars. That's all that's still keeping them afloat. Nothing else.

Kenya police recently acquired the South African DCD Protected Mobility Spring buck armored personnel carriers.The CHINESE NORINCO UNITS we had acquired earlier were ironically very susceptible to IEDS and even couldn't withstand RPG fire according to some police reports.
They can't even make good vehicles.
