tempest01:You can check this link:https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-60659185. His name and picture posted on bbc website on the 8th of March, 2022. Next time before accusing random pple online of being senseless, check yourself first. |
Igbofam:Nope! I know very well. See the screenshot. It was on bbc.

This same man (Valery Gerasimov) was Russian first general the Ukranians claimed they killed. |
shogsman:Russia risks being isolation economical if she looses the war and it will take her time to rebuild her military. There is possibility that the two countries will regret allow the war to occur. Zelenszky made a great mistake by allowing the West to push him into war with Russia and Russia should not have invaded if she knew that the West will interfer to this degree. Ukraine is massively getting weapon from them. Even, the almighty US will loose this war. Russian build up troops at the border were doing a great job before the war. Ukrane was loosing economically and if they had kept the pressure to this time, Zelenszky would have given Russia what she wanted. |
MrBrownJay1:Bro! I am a pro russian. Truth be told. Russia is loosing a lots in this war. The support Ukraine is getting is overwhelming. The West a pouring in weapon into Ukraine every single day. It will be difficult for Russia to defeat Ukraine. Puttin made a very silly mistake. It's troops should not have abandoned Kyiv. When the Russian troops were in Kyiv, Zelensky was ready to negotiate. But immediately they left, he abandon the.negotiation. Another mistake Putin made was it's inability to force countries border Ukraine (especially Poland) not to allow it's territory to be used to ship in weapon yo Ukraine. Russia didn't threatening Poland enough. Unless they come up with another strategy. They are loosing. I understand that this is existential threat for Russia. So it is time to use NUKE. NUKE will force Zelenszky to surround and the West especially Poland will back off immediately. No one wants a nuclear war and they won't dare interfer. |
GardenOfGod:The fact is that, the West don't know anything about Russia and it's leader. They are just guessing. When the phase two started, they said Russian goal is to successfully seize Donbas and Mariupol before May 9. Now they are saying another thing. |
Uprightness100:I can only see S-400 defense systems and Tanks in the picture. No NUKE! |
Russia's assault on Donbas has "sort of fizzled" and the battle for the region will be over in two to four weeks, says military expert Dr Mike Martin. The war studies visiting fellow at King's College London says: "Basically the Russians are gonna run out of troops, and the Ukrainians are going to counterattack." The Russians have squandered their one chance to take the region, he believes. "They pulled all of these mauled units out of Kyiv, and then tried to reconstitute them for combat in the east," he explains. But they were "bruised and damaged" by the battle for the Ukrainian capital and Russia failed to build them up and "do some bold manoeuvre". And Martin says there has been a "major strategic shift" in the war, with the UK declaring its aim is to clear Russian forces from Ukraine, including Crimea. He adds that UK Foreign Secretary Liz Truss is "wrong", however, to say this would take 10 years, insisting: "Russian forces will collapse before that, and we’ll see a coup." And with the US announcing US$33bn (£26bn) of funding for Ukraine, "that is an extremely clear signal of intent", says Martin. It also means Nato and the US have decided Vladimir Putin is bluffing about using nuclear weapons if Nato up the ante, he adds. source:WWW.BBC.COM |
Jacopini:This is a beautiful lie. If the relationship EU has with Russia was fragile, why are they so much dependent on Russia for gas? Why do we have the Nord Stream two? |
Eagba:Just check the meaning on google |
Eagba:Go and read about Finlandisation. |
osazsky:Lol! Ukraine is not a weak country militarily. It is the second most developed country and after Russia that broke out of USSR. Ukraine is one of the countries that export arms in europe. It exports fighter jet engines. This may not be significant to you. But do you know that China has not successfully built reliable engines for it's military aircrafts? Most of it's locally Made military planes including the J-20 still use Russian engines. Although they are getting closer, the WS-15 engine for the J-20 & WS-10 jet engine are still work in progress. So Ukraine is not a small country. Ukraine navy, air force and air defence forces were/are far better than the Iraqis & Afghans put together. Before 2014, the Ukrainian military was far stronger than Iraq and Afghanistan put together. Not to talk of their military capability at the moment. The West started arming them from 2014 till this day. They have access to the US intelligence, more than 20 countries are providing them with weapon. Infact i respect Russia. They are fighting a country with population of 40m with less than 300k troops. Wemblin stadium can accommodate Russian entire troops in Ukraine. |
plaindealer:I don't know where the OP got this news from. But the fact is that Russia never demand for crude oil payment in Ruble. It is only GASSSSSSSSS. This is targeted at US & it's allies (unfriendly nations). So countries like India and China are using the opportunity to trade in their local currencies like Rupee-Rubble & Yuan-Ruble and abandon dollar. |
paramakina202:It is all about survival for Russia and that is why Putin can not loose in Ukraine. If he looses. He will loose the capacity to halt NATO expansion. Whether he wins or not, Finland & Sweden may still join NATO. But at least in the future, the West will not want to add Belarus to their list. Although, for now, Belarus is Russian ally. But this can change any time. The risk of Russia being isolated is real. Russia shares land border with 15 countries. So imagine if those 15 countries join NATO. 1. Russia will be forced to fortified it's border with those countries permanently. Which will be extremely expensive to maintain. 2. The 15 NATO countries bordering Russia will likely use harassment through military drills to drain it's defence & offensive capacities. Imagine if country A decide to carry out military drill today. Russia will deploy additional troops and equipments to its border with A. So what if B decides to do it's own following day. Russia will be forced to deploy another troops and equipments again to its border with B and so on. Now imagine if two or three countries decide to do military drills at the same time. It is like fighting a war when there is no war. This is just like a tip of the iceberg of what will happen, if NATO takes over the whole Eastern Europe. So this and many other things is what Russia is trying to avoid and that is why Putin can not lost. If he looses, it is over for Russia. Russia will be silent by the West. |

inoki247:The West are making more noise than Russia. Imagine a government official of the United Kingdom saying that they have given Ukraine offensive weapon which they can use to strike Russia territory. You don't expect Russia not to respond. I still blame the West for the war. There is no super power on earth that will sit and watch it's enemy surround it's territory with military bases. It is a threat to the security of the country. The US & UK will never accept it. So why are you telling Russia to accept such. Europe was peaceful untill they start the expansion towards the east. The economic relationship between the Western europe and Russia brought prosperity to both. Germany strong economic is being powered by Russian cheap energy. Likewise other Western european countries. The moment they started isolating Russia through NATO expansion, i knew europe will be at war some day. Crimea, the break away region in Maldovia, Donbas, break away region in Georgia were all as a result of NATO expansion. There was no threat to the West european countries. Russia was increasing it's dependency on them for energy purchase and they were depending on Russian energy. They just destroyed the beautiful relationship between them. |
Teaser4:He is mostly likely talking about the tactical Zircon Hypersonic Cruise missile. The missile can be launched from warship (Frigate) and submarine (Yasen M). The missile has a range of more than 2000km. |
We have news from the Russian-backed separatist region of Moldova, Transnistria, where authorities have said shots were fired from Ukraine overnight towards a village that houses a large ammunition depot in the region. Transnistria's Interior Ministry added that it had detected drones launched from Ukraine. Transnistria has seen a number of attacks in the last few days, from radio masts being destroyed to a military unit being attacked. Earlier, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Russian special services were behind the attacks. Ukraine has claimed these are "false flag" attacks aimed at destabilising the region and drawing it into the war. SOURCE:www. |
That is the work of the Chinese. China is doing a great job in Africa. |
seunny4lif:Germany killed over 2 million of jews. |
jumper524:We are not talking about NATO. We are talking about EU (European Union). They are not the same. Turkey applied for EU membership on the 14th of April, 1987 and up till now she has not been accepted. |
Heathrow44:This idea of insulting people on line is extremely disgusting. You argue when have something tangible to say. It is not a must. If you can not stand the heat, just stay out of the kitchen. The West talked about harsh sanctions that they were ready to impose on Russia and how they were ready to support Ukraine militarily. Biden said he is ready to fight Russia to the last Ukranian. He was not bluffing when he said that and Putin is aware. They started sending weapon to Ukraine before the war to backup the threats. Every single threat made by the West are being executed. Do you want to tell me that a man who is aware of what such support did to the Soviet Union in Afghanistan and the US in Vietnam was looking for a quick victory. The Soviet Union left Afganistan mainly because they could not deal with the way the Mujiadeen fighters were destroying their tanks with anti-tank weapon and their aircrafts with anti-aircraft weapon. Russia never said anything about the time it will take to achieve their goal. It was the West that said Russia could defeat UKRAINE within 5 days and they made sure it did not happen. It is quite unfortunate that people don't know how powerful the US is. The US is not even doing this alone, NATO members are also involve. Ukraine is being flooded with weapon from more than 20 countries. Intelligence is being provided by the US. Now the second phase of the war is on going. The West said Russia is looking for victory before May 9 (Victory day). The Kremelin never said anything about this. All Putin has been saying is that Russia will achieve it's aim in Ukraine. So learn to argue intelligently and not insulting people because they don't share your view. It shows how empty you are. |

MadamVanessa:If Lagos is in bondage and it is still the richest and the most developed state in Nigeria. What is the fate of the other states (including YOUR state)? |
VictorUSA:Many EU members will block UKRAINE from joining EU. There is a reason Turkey has not given membership till this day. The membership is given to a well democratic state. Ukraine is not a democratic state. Zelenszky is just forcing it's country on EU. He is an authoritarian leader. |
Olamila:Kindly go for check-up. |
Ukraine says it's disappointed that its efforts to join the European Union have met resistance from Austria. Austrian Foreign Minister Alexander Schallenberg was quoted saying that Kyiv should not be offered membership of the 27-country bloc, and alternative paths should be considered to develop EU-Ukraine ties. Ukraine has called the remarks "strategically short-sighted". The EU has rallied behind Ukraine during the war, punishing Russia for its invasion with sanctions. |
okeysoninv:I posted a well detailed analysis. If you have something to offer, you are free to counter my points. |
okeysoninv:The kind of language you use really shows how immature and uninformed that you are. Where exactly did i mention that Russia has not lost military equipments? It os understandable, sometimes you feel that you know it all. Whereas you know nothing. |
God1000:Putin never thought the war will be quick. The West promise that they will make the war difficult for Russia and Putin knew that they were not bluffing. |
God1000:Taiwan is not an independent state yet (officially). It's official name is still Chinese Taipei. The day Taiwan declare itself as an independent state, that will the day China will declare war on Taiwan. Taiwan is in a difficult situation. Although they have been preparing for invasion for years. The US has been arming them. But Chinese military is growing at an unimaginable rate. It is will difficult even for the US to stop China from having a successful invasion of Taiwan. Russia is not doing badly in Ukraine. Fighting a war when you are being heavily sanctioned with a country that is getting intelligence and arms from the most powerful country (& other NATO members) in the world is not child's play. There is no country in the West that will dare to fight a war in this kind of situation. Before US go to war with any country. The first thing they do is to strangle the country's ability to fund the war through economic sanctions. Then they place arms embargo on the country to kill it's ability to import arms during the war. When all these are achieved, then they send in their troops. Despite all the measures they still loose fighters jets, helicopters, other military equipments and soldiers to the enemy. But Russia is facing the opposite. Western propaganda says this is Putin war. But having your country surrounded by the military of your adversary/adversaries is unacceptable to any leader in the world. Putin can not loose in Ukraine. If he loses, Russia wil lack the ability to stop NATO expansion. This will be disater for Russia. Russia is not going to loose. Russia must win at all cost. |
Ukraine! Reason: To know why we must avoid in Nigeria at all cost. |
