Walkee:
Nobody fielded 25m soldiers in any battle. Annihilating farmers living in villages is not the same thing as defeating an army

Have you got to see the breakdown of military death amongst the total number of people that died from the Soviet side . Exactly 9million military deaths out of total death of about 27 million. Even when Germany fought in different theatres they lost approximately 6million military personnel.

Fact check

Deffjam:
If this is true.. certainly not Ukrainians actions........ typical USA action.

Lol, u guys should leave US. In this they are ghost soldiers.

Ghost protocol already declared.

tit:
US Special forces in action

Private military contractors surely will be in their midst. Ex navy seals, ex Army rangers etc

CIA is also close by for Intel assessment.
Everything is possible at this point.

For those saying OP is dumb, can you tell me why the Soviets lost over 25million men on the battle field and the Germans lost way below that even when they fought in different theatres.

ProfAmaben:
Ignorant boy, go and read up the battle of Stalingrad, most nairalanders are just dumb. You that is writing rubbish, have you seen real war?

That guy is not ignorant, you guys are.

The battle of Stalingrad, the Soviets lost more men than the Germans, it can be safe to say that the Germans slaughtered soviets even if they could not go through.

The Soviets lost about 1.2million men whole the Germans lost 800 thousand men.

Kabongo1:
Ignorance is bliss. There are so many books you can read up about WWII...

Please read up about the war and how the Russians decimated Germany when attacked and how they invaded Germany and paved the way for American soldiers to join them.

Imagine in this age of readily available materials to read up on any subject.

The guy u are quoting isn't ignorant.
@bolded who killed over 25 million Soviets during world war 2?

Even when Germany fought in different theatres and finally loss the war their casualty could not equate to that they inflicted on the Soviets.

Go check your history, Soviets had the highest casualty in world war two and it came from the Germans.

Preshieben:
it can never happen

Why wish others what you don't want others wish you? You cannot approbate and reprobate at thesame time.

This is legendary act of selfishness.

Those anti tanks should have been used today on that massive 40mile long column of Russian hardware advancing towards Kiev

If truly they received those Javelins from Estonia and Latvia

I saw in a Russian website on Sunday that the shipment was intercepted by Russian military

No better time than this period for those javelin to be on practice. Unfortunately, Ukrainian state should have been armed during the intelligence briefing of potential invasion.

Due to complications in logistics , it will take a great deal of work before field commanders could receive supplies from donnors.

"He also told a Geneva disarmament meeting on Tuesday that Kyiv has been seeking to acquire nuclear weapons, calling this a real danger that it needed to prevent"

If Ukraine had known there will be a day like this in 1994 , they won't have given up their nuclear war heads to Russia.

perez100:
U.S does not want this Russia/Ukraine war to turn into world war 3. If it turns to world war, Ukraine will suffer it. Nothing will happen to U.S. So, U S knows Ukraine will suffer it and that's why US cannot join this war. Ukraine does not have air defense systems. So, Russia will deal with them if U S joins the war. U.S is smart and wants to save Ukraine from destruction.

Aptly stated.

U want to tell me there is more HIV in Enugu than in Lagos. Continue

The statistics shows that the number of people living with HIV in Lagos is more than those living with HIV in Enugu but if you take as a percentage of the total population of these states under review , Enugu has a higher prevalent rate.

Too bad of her I guess any where she is now she will be blaming herself for such mistake but it rather too late

Mistake I don't think so, it was premeditated murder. She is in for a long ride.

Dawn91:
Serves him right... Sometimes we push these women too far with out philandering

Good radiance abeg

What did you say?

She will spend the rest of her life in jail, I guess you will also say " it serves her right "

Violence has never been the solution Marital issues , before now it was men who moat of the time are involved in domestic violence against their wives and we condem it .

Unfortunately, I am seeing someone glorifying domestic violence leading to death.

Gamesmart:
Stop making foolish statements.

Many of you black foools have a special ability of creating your narratives to support wrong; no wonder the countries and societies you run are shitholes.

Even what FIFA and EUFA claimed is their excuse is different from you foolish one.

Since you have decided to crawl in the gutters , I will allow you do that peacefully. Do have a great day.

tempex88:
Even if Ukrainians are able to stop the Russians, they still cant win this war. I don't know if its lives that is more important or land.

War is never the answer. Fight like a coward, that's the best kind of fight.

Why cant Ukraine play Russia and accept their terms to allow a cease fire. Then they codedly begin to build their arsenal. Putin wont be Russia's president in the next 5 - 20 years and Russia might have a more liberal president after him or a worse person.

As it applies to Russia so it also applies to the USA.

You don't know Putin, he is staying there till 2036.

Svlla:
Then why the need to transfer 1000 anti tank and over 300 portable air defence systems to Ukraine

Look at the weaponry the West said it will send to Ukraine that should tell you something

You are correct, no nation that knows it's onion goes to the battle did without misile defense shield to protect the air in addition to it's always airraft.

Those weaponry been sent to Ukraine especially anti tank and air defence systems will be a game changer for Ukraine because they are lacking in air dominance.

mysticwarrior:
I laugh in Czechoslovakian, they are giving them outdated RUSSIAN MADE JETS to fight against the Russians? Isn't this obvious that NATO is subjecting the Ukrainians to suicide mission?

Unfortunately, that's the Jets they are used to, you can't give them F16 or other Jets they have never used before . There is no time for training and retraining, they are needed for immediate bombardments.

ityP:
Exactly, you have sense. If because of these minor adjustments he delayed, we would have said he is against democracy. Frankly, Buhari has handled this electoral bill in the best way possible. He truly wants to be seen as a democrat. I'm impressed tbh. For a staunch Buhari's critic, this is a lot coming from me

I don't think so, we don't have to say but his actions has been against enshrining democratic tendencies in the country. He had 7 years to make this possible but rejected several acts of the electoral laws passed by the 8th and 9th national assembly just because he wanted to benefit from the shady way elections are conducted in Nigeria.

One of those times he rejected the electoral laws his reason was that there was a typo error in the document, he refused to sign not because of the typo error but because of electronic transmission of result.

The only reason he signed this one was solely on the basis that it was his last chance to do so, anything short of signing would have passed the barton to the 10 national assembly and the new administration.

Nevertheless, signing was still in the positive.

In Bayelsa state, it can be as worse as the LG Chairman staying in Port Harcourt, River state and comes to Bayelsa every last days of the month to pay salaries to ghost and absentee workers like him then return to PH.

Next month, the cycle repeats.

Congratulations to residents of PHcity
Wike did not build cfc flyover.
He only renovated the existing one there!!!



ANUIM PIUS ANYIM IS COMING.

GREATER NIGERIA PROJECT, 2023

VOTE PDP

The contest which you asserted did not portray a true picture of this. It's always nice to dish out public opinion in the best way possible.

Renovate in this context means to repair the existing bridge but that is not what is on ground . He can't be said to renovate when he built a second Lane for that bridge to make it a dual carriage bridge.

nazicartel:
But on a serious note. Why will FIFA ban the club and country from football games for Jesu's sake ?

Does these names sound familiar to you Dynamo kyiv, shakter donesk, etc

The Russians have paralized the Ukrainian league and ended everything like football and other sports in the country.

The message is , allow Ukraine participate in sports we will allow you participate also.

Actions and reactions they say is equal I'm magnitude but opposite in direction.

Mynd44:
Turkey can only block Russian access to the black sea if Turkey is at war and even then, they can't block Russian ships from going home. They can block then going out though.

And Turkey is not at war

Everybody shouting Putin Putin Putin Russia Russia Russia yet no one has bothered to ask why Russia invaded Ukraine.

Putin is a freedom fighter. He is Mazi Nnamdi Kanu's classmate in their University days.

Ukraine has been committing genocide against Eastern Ukraine who want to be independent and these Eastern Ukrainians have the identity of Russia, their value system and everything Russian.

Remember they were all in the Soviet Union before breakaway in 1991 and you don't expect the senior brother of Eastern Ukraine (Russia) to fold their hands and watch while their younger sister (Eastern Ukraine) is being raped, tortured, killed.

This is what the BBC and some other international media will not tell us.

In nutshell, Putin is a freedom fighter.

You are pushing a false narrative to the public.
Putin armed separatist to distabilize the Ukrainian territorial integrity and what the Ukrainians did was to ensure the country remains as one republic.

A leader who goes about claiming territories of another Nation is not a freedom fighter. All over the world communities located along the boundary region have different cultural heritage , some speak the language of their country other speak the language of the boundary countries. The Russian language had been the most dominant language I'm the Soviet Union time because Russia is the most domineering republic amongst them all.

That some part of benin republic is ethnically Yoruba doesn't mean Nigeria has a claim to where they are Aborigines in Benin republic, likewise those ethnic nationalities in Katsina and Adamawa that can be found in Nigeria and Niger as well Nigeria and Cameroon.

The New donesk and luhansk region were armed , given heavy Russian weaponry just to distabilize Ukraine because Ukrainian government is not pro-russian and the only way Russia thinks Ukraine will be perpetually slaves to them is to make sure the country is in tumoil ..
Every Nation on Earth has the right to self determination and right to statehood as enshrined in the UN charter.

Russian government in achieving their aim of distabilizing Ukraine started distributing over 800 thousand Russian passport to New donesk and luhansk region post 2014.
What does this means? Russian has already pinpoint that region to be added to the Russian federation after it took Crimea from the Ukrainians in 2014.

Putin is an expansionist and never a freedom fighter, it's unfortunate that people dish out the wrong Information in order to massage their political leaning.

Rugaria:
I[b]f it was the Iraqis that were standing in front of
column of NATO tanks, stopping it from achieving it's aim, the NATO column would have driven pass them, killing as many as possible instantly. Google the thousands of videos that shows American and NATO soldiers shooting at cars in the streets of Baghdad, simply because they drove too close for comfort. [/b]That the Russians refused to do so here, shows that they are simply trying to achieve their military objectives and not to dehumanize the people of Ukraine. That folks reading this here, choose to praise the vulnerable civilians spared by the Russian tanks instead of praising the gallant Russian military men that have exercised a great sense of restraint and decorum, shows how we all can see the same thing but read different meanings to them, because of the level of propaganda we have been subjected to..

I detest it when people refuse to give the accurate picture of things just to massage the area of public opinion they are trying to dish out.

In Iraq, the reason that happened was because of the American soldiers been killed from suicide bombs implanted in civilian vehicles from left right and centre. Women and teen suicide bombers were not left out of the menace , so the best bet was to take proactive afforta to protect the military.
Even at that the Americans were still worked under the rules of engagement.

In the case of Ukraine, there is no threat emanating from civiliana who blocked the road, no suicide bombs strapped on the chest of demonstrators. If there was those tanks will crush them.

Whe making comparison make sure you churn out the right information, it helps to educate those who don't Know the facts of the scenarios.

tonididdy:
They lost their lives defending their nation, Russia has not directly targeted civilians.
If you have a gun pointed at me and I have a gun in my hand too, will I point mine to the skies?

In someone's sovereign territory? I have never seen where an invader or assassin or armed rubber when killed is given a minute silence. May be those who sent them can give them the minute silence honour but certainly not the victim and the onlookers.

Your really ignorant..
The sanctions on swift did not affect all Russian bank

It was partial Swift ban.

WarriAproko:
they don't know this

It will hurt Russia more than it will hurt Europe . Swift is only done partially for a reason. Russia should go ahead and retaliate we are watching.

WarriAproko:
The war dey go on for Ukraine why west dey use sanctions

You don't know sanctions is part of war? Economic war, Ukraine is using boots while the west is using sanctions.

tonididdy:
The world is being unfair to Russia.
All she trying to do, is protect herself.

In the UN council meeting, a minute silence is held for ukranians who lost their lives so far BUT WHAT ABOUT THE RUSSIAN FORCES WHO ARE BEING AMBUSHED AND KILLED!
FIFA has always said they don't mingle into politics, so why are all the sports outlets banning Russia.
Put Biden in putins's shoes.... Will it take a threat to its borders lightly?

Hopefully in the coming weeks "someone" will be brave enough to gather enough voices to support Russia.
The world cannot be at the foot of one country forever, power must change hands!

This can be likened to a thief who invades your house kills and had some casualty along the way. They should have a minute silence for the third?

What is Russia doing on the soil of a sovereign country? Distabilizing Ukraine by sponsorship of aeparatist was not enough for them. They decided to Invade.

Maybe after they must have gotten the economic shock that's when they will leave.
