saxywale2:Where is the proof? If you are fighting your enemy, you don't rely on the same enemy for the truth. May be you should ask Trump about the battle he fought with CNN. |
saxywale2:Where is the proof? |
Enugurangers:But Amnesty International an NGO base in the West confirmed that the Ukrainian military sometimes hide behind civilian infrastructures, thereby turning those infrastructures to legitimate target for the Russians. They hide weapon and soldiers in schools, malls, churches, hospitals e.t.c |
saxywale2:Civilians are being killed on a daily basis in Russian controlled part of Ukraine especially in the Donestsk. But the Western media intentionally refuse to air such event. |
RepoMan007:If it is true that Russia has lost 80k. Ukraine should be able to liberate all its territory within 24 hours. If not the remaining Russians soldiers are super human beings. |
Ukraine attacked military bases, Crimea bridge e.t.c. To the pro-West, it is normal, because the Ukrainians are trying to take back Thier land. When the Afghans (Taliban) were attacking the invaders (US & it's allies) in Kabul, just to take back their territory from the West. You called them terrorists. The Palestinians that are fighting back against the Israelis aggression, you also call them terrorists. But the Ukrainians that are attacking the Russian infrastructures and Military bases are heroes. I support common sense and not West propaganda or Russian propaganda. I say no to double standard. |
atmy1:I understand you. It is normal to be emotional especially when people (children) are being killed. I am not happy about it too. But if you look at the crisis critically, Russia has been avoiding hitting civilian infrastructure or deliberately kill civilians. Although mistake happens. The invasion of Iraq led to the death of 300,000 civilians. Most of them were killed by the US air force (especially bombers). The above is what you get when you deliberately target civilians. Russia has the capacity to bomb Ukraine to submission, but they choose not to. Putin is not fighting the ordinary Ukrainians. He is fighting Ukrainian govt and the West. You may call us fools for supporting Russia or for telling Kiev to negotiate with Russia. But, someone like Elon Musk who shares the same opinion is not a fool, he knows that the West are playing politics with the life of ordinary Ukrainians. |
atmy1:Ok |
Enugurangers:If u check the News, they mentioned that Russia is attacking the centre of Kiev for the first time since the beginning of war. They have the capacity to do so. But they choose not to. Ukraine attacked Russian civilian infrastructure and they need to respond. |
okeysoninv:You can do the same too in favour of Ukraine to fight the Russians. |
okeysoninv:I think we are in for a long war. Russia will never allow the West to succeed in Ukraine and vice versa. I pity the ordinary Ukrainians. They will suffer. A time will come that they will force their govt to negotiate. Because, even if Putin is removed, the next Russian leader won't give up on Ukraine. It is natural. The same way the US rejected Russian military in Cuba and recently the US told Solomon Island not to engage in any military cooperation with China. In the same way Russia will never allow NATO or US to take over Ukraine. So the earlier Ukraine negotiate the better. Elon Musk is not a fool. He knew what he was talking about. |
Jones90:Lol! Which secret weapon? Secret fighter jet? Secret missile? Secret submarine? Stop fooling yourself. If such weapon exist. The US would have used it to destroy Russia in a way that Russia will not be able to respond. Lloyd Austin said the West wants to weaken Russia to the extent that it lacks the capacity to carry out this kind of offensive in the future. So what are they waiting for? |
Whobedatte:The US should just give them everything they need, including Nuclear Weapon to defeat Russia straight away. Bunch of jokers! |
Moh247:It worked. You responded! |
mysticwarrior:It is unlikely that a single missile can sink the ship. Although a missile can knock it out of action. A torpedo with massive warheads will likely sink it but not a missile (hypersonic or not). |
God1000:This is fake news. The 1st & 2nd pictures are taken from Russian military parade and the last one is not a convoy. It is a train transporting military equipments. |
Appleyard:Russia can't use all these big missiles (strategic missiles) against Ukraine. They will likely use tactical missile equipped with nuclear warheads e.g Iskander-M ballistic missile, Kalibr cruise missiles, Oniks e.t.c |
Just40:Russia currently don't have enough forces in Ukraine. Their priority for now is Kherson. In fact they withdrew forces from Lugansk, Donestsk and Kharkiv to boost the Kherson defence. The reason is simple. If Kherson falls, Crimea will be next. The Ukrainian troops that took Kharkiv are now mounting pressure on both Lugansk and Donestsk. The Russians are hoping that their troops currently in Donbas will hold the line till winter, probably loosing few ground to the Ukrainians. The 300k troops will not be ready until next year. |
Whobedatte:Firstly, the decision to carry out this kind of attack lies with the president. Secondly, taking out the entire Russian troops in Ukraine is impossible. They can be defeated not destroyed entirely. Lastly, if a single Russian ship is destroyed by NATO or the US, Russia will definitely respond. In concluding, he is bluffing. It is highly likely that Russia will use nuclear weapon if it's forces are defeated in Ukraine. Russia will follow it's Constitution about the use of Nuclear weapon to the later. Although nobody dares respond militarily to this kind of action. But the West will put pressure on China, India & Turkey to cut ties with Russia, which can bring down Russian entire. |
atmy1:It is a good thing they withdrew their forces instead of risking losing them. But the big question is, will Russia be able to take back those lost territories? |
gambojimeta:The idea that Putin wants to bring back the USSR is a big lie. It is impossible to resurrect USSR. The Baltic's states are with the West and they are gone forever. All Russia wanted is respect. Whatever the US can not take, they should not give it to Russia. The US will never allow any other super power to interfer in it's sphere of influence. So Russia want the same thing. But US is not ready to give Russia such respect. |
Akuruoulo:Russia has 64. While US has 68. |
iykofias:The Islander-M is the only missile that has not been shot down in Ukraine so far. |
Reference:Are you saying all the 300k soldiers will die in the war. Lol! Well, that is not how war is being fought. Russia has troops (Russian forces, Chenchens, PMC, LPR militias, DPR Militias & others) already in Ukraine (250+ troops). These are the battle ready soldiers. Only 1/3 of the existing 250+ troops deployed initially are at the frontline. While 2/3 of the troops are manning the Russian borders with Ukraine, supply lines, key infrastructures (Power plant, Nuclear plant, administrative buildings e.t.c ) in Lugansk, Donestsk, Kherson, Zaprophizia & Kharkiv and also maintaining law and order in the occupied regions. Majority of the 300k troops will not be sent to the frontline. They will take the position of the 2/3 already existing troops that are not in the frontline. The already existing 2/3 will be sent the frontline to join the existing 1/3 troops at the frontline. Then, in the future, if the war is prolonged. Russia will gradually begin to introduce the reservists to the frontline to join the experienced soldiers at the frontline bit by bit. |
linearity:It is a very stupid idea to decide to end your life, when you don't know whether you will survive an event or not. |
RepoMan007:Who declared no flight zone in Libya? NATO. Who was giving air support to the anti-government forces? NATO. They did the same thing in Serbia, Yogoslavia e.t.c. |
RepoMan007:I never insulted you. You are the one being emotional. Use your brain to convince people and not going about insulting people. You need to stop being emotional. Be open minded, if you want to learn. If my point is out of place, why would NATO travelled thousands of kilometer from Europe to Libya to help anti-govt coalition fight against Gaddafi govt? Or while would Turkey invaded Cyprus to annexed Northern Cyprus? Or why are the Biafrans calling for foreign help to actualise independence? Or why would NATO support a group (Kosovo) of people in Serbia to gain independence. This is the world we live in. It is not fair. But It has happened in the past and it will continue to happen. |
RepoMan007:If you believe that whenever you share your opinion everybody must queue behind you and if they don't, they are wrong while you are right, then something is definitely wrong with you. People will always have their opinion. Learn to live with it. Nairaland is now filled with immatured individuals who go about insulting people for having different opinion from theirs. This is ridiculous. If my point is out of place, why would NATO travelled thousands of kilometer from Europe to Libya to help anti-govt coalition fight against Gaddafi govt? Or while would Turkey invade Cyprus to annexed Northern Cyprus? Or why are the Biafrans calling for foreign help to actualise independence? Or would NATO support a group (Kosovo) of people in Serbia to gain independence. This is the world we live in. It is not fair. It has happened before and it will continue to happen. |
RepoMan007:In Ukraine, there are different ethnic groups. We have ethnic Russians, ethnic Ukrainians, ethnic Hungarians and ethnic Romanians. But the ethnic Ukrainians and ethnic Russians are the majorities. Ukraine ambition to join the EU, cause divide among Ukrainians which give birth to pro-Russians and the pro-West. The pro-Russians starting protesting against Ukraine joining the West. Then the govt starting clapping down on them. The nationalist battalion called the Azov battalion were used by the govt to intimidate, maltreat & kill the pro-Russians, in other to force them to abandon their cause. At a point the pro-Russians decided to arm themselve and fight back. So they grew very strong (with the help Russia) and started seizing territories in Crimea & Donbass. They were able to seize part of Lugansk and Donestsk and other territories. Now when Zelensky became the president. He was hard on the pro-Russians. He banned Russian language, he banned pro-Russian media, seized assets of the pro-Russians e.t.c. Before February this year. Zelensky was preparing to attack the pro-Russian separatists and take back the territory they seized. He went to the West and ask for military support. The West trained & armed the Ukraine soldiers, these soldiers were sent to frontline on Donbas. Last year Ukraine started using Turkish drone to attack the separatists in preparation for the main offensive and that was when Russia decides to interfer. Putin believes that Russia is under the obligation to protect the Russian speakers. He tried to negotiate but both Ukraine and the West were not interested. He told Ukraine to implement the Minsk aggrement which was signed by the EU, Ukraine & Russia. The proposal was rejected. Then he invaded. This is the same thing Turkey did to Cyprus. Turkey invaded and annexed Northern Cyprus to protect ethnic Turkish. |
Segun2222:100 Russian S-300, S-350 & S-400 defense systems fire missiles that explode near the target. They carry big warheads. |
coke75:You don't need a Navy to sink a ship. All you need is capable anti-ship missile that has the range and can be fired from land or air. As a matter of fact ship can destroy another ship with anti-ship missile. |
nnachukz:Being number one comes with a lots of responsibilities. You must be involved in everything going on in the world. The US don't care about you or people living with AIDS. But they must be involved in all these events, if they still want to be relevant. The US have started talking about competing with Russia in Africa. So expect more wars (US sponsored COUP, assassination of some African leaders, illegal removal of African leaders e.t.c) on our continent. Africa should be ready for more instabilities & atrocities. |
