what hard there in invading Russia? All.they need is to gather the well trained NATO special forces, like people from France, USA, UK, Italy, Germany ( after all Germany chop Russia father Ww2)... Take them, and invade a city in Russia at least the one close to Poland or Ukraine...take the city and keep it. Only release it when crimea is release to Ukraine ba. It simple

There is a saying in the Western underworld: Don't mess with the Russians.

Does Russia not have special forces and conduct successful intelligence operations on US, EU and NATO countries soil?

Why haven't they defeated them in Syria?

Forget these bullying you see on television and newspapers. Russians are practical people. Let me remind you that it took them to destroy two whole large town to stop the Chechen seperatists and Islamic terrorist incursions on their soil.

Don't think this is Nigeria where a phone call will make our leaders shiver. These ones don't care.

The super power nations should invest their resources on things that can project the human race instead of military weaponry that can only result in self destruction.

seanwilliam:
u must be a big time dumbass to believe Russia with be able to reply all those countries that carried out attack against it you’re so dull trying to justify 1 against 30.. get lost fiam..

All NATO countries cannot carry out attacks on Russia. That is why I said russia would hit back at Those who do.
You must've thought I said russia would carry out attacks on all of them. Dumb nigga.

Russia has powerful allies too. India, China, North Korea all nuclear nations.
Iran, Belarus just to mention a few.

Somehow you think russia would be alone in a WORLD WAR 3. like I said before, you're a disgrace and a shame to the entire human race. There's need for you to return to school and if that doesn't change you from being a retařd, then a psychological evaluation would do the trick

Peaceworld:


Very funny. NATO is a free organization. Any free country can join it. Any free country. Russia doesn't own former USSR countries. I want to make that point clear. Russia should join NATO sef. Den everybody go make sense.

russia once tried joining the eu but their proposal was rejected

I see the eu as one of the ways to try to defend Europe from russia

maak400:
Wow over 800 military bases! The US wants to have the capacity to hit any country with missile within minutes. Russia has a lot of weapons and nuclear power, so America will respect them and not just lunch attack anyhow.

The wet dreams of the Americans is to have a unilateral world, and of course, be the spearhead of it. How can you explain a country that has being at war for over 225 years, in its less than 250 years of existence? Military bases are just a reminder to stubborn countries that if they mess up, a fatal fate awaits them.

If not for Russia and China, countries like Iran, Cuba, Syria, would have being in flames. But somehow, mainstream media have convinced people that the US are saints, and the rest of the world are evil. Only one country have used nuclear weapons on innocent civilians, and its the Americans.

Russia and China understands this, hence they refuse any bases within their sphere of influence. Also why the west hates them so much. How sad day it would be for the world, in its rich diversity, to be ruled by one country.

Invade a city in Russia..
Don't make me laugh

Not necessary a City, a town. After all that was what Germany nearly did before USA came to help Russia doing ww2

Malawian:

What did US do when Cuba hosted Soviet Missiles? Was Cuba not a sovereign country? This is like Russia placing nukes in Mexico. I bet if Russia comes to recolonize Nigeria, that US and Britain will not stay in their lane.

The two are not even remotely close in anyway. In Cuba, Russia was building up arsenal. In Ukraine, NATO is not planning to build up any arsenal, it's only just an alliance! Russia just want to annex Ukraine by all means, plain and simple!

US is no doubt a strong country but dem too dey do gragra
I remember at a point in time,ISIS were taking almost all Syria and Iraq,the middle eat reckoned on US to fight ISIS for them but it all fail woefully, thankfully Russia came in and that very year ,ISIS became powerless from excessive bombing from Russia jets.
US also fail Afghanistan Allies from Taliban
Alot of people will say US loose the war because the Talibans were mixed with the Afghanistan people but do you know that Talibans indeed had war fronts?
If Afghanistan government had call Putin ,I am very sure the outcome won't be thesame
Russia would have crushed Taliban
There are no tactics in loosing a war

They will retreat the way they retreated when Russia entered the Syrian war. Yes, I didn't mention Biden here. That one no know wetin dey sup for him administration.

pansophist:


Too much western propaganda.

Youre aware that NATO violated their agreement with Russia not to expand an inch eastward and integrate former soviet countries right?

And how is taking measures to safeguard territorial integrity and sovereign security by Russia be understood as aggression?

Russia appears to believe it had been clearly communicating its messages of deterrence to Western powers, but a persistent lack of clarity over what was to be deterred meant its actions caused only confusion. This in turn spurred greater Russian frustration, and an apparent conviction in Moscow that avenues of communication other than direct military threats had been exhausted.

But few of these are likely to be feasible. Demanding binding guarantees of no further admissions to membership of NATO is incompatible with the most basic principles of how NATO works, as well as with even more fundamental principles which hold that independent sovereign states – such as not only Ukraine and Georgia but also Finland and Sweden – should be free to determine their own policies and futures without being subject to a Russian veto. Russia is conducting a campaign of military intimidation with the aim of preventing any more countries joining NATO – not realising that in doing so, it is demonstrating precisely why countries want to join NATO in the first place.

In as much a Moscow feels threatened this is bound to happen..... The selfish West want to survive, Moscow the bully want to survive, former Soviet territories want to be free from Russia firm grip too, EU too are tired of the monster at thier back door, China is waiting for Russia prima status so they could control the world. Now everyone seems right in their own stand. Looking forward to how this lockjam will be diffused. Interesting days ahead bro.

Missile batteries are just defense systems. And yet again, it's not the same thing as what Russia did in Cuba. Frankly, there is no reason for Russia aggression in Ukraine. They are just bullying that small and weak nation!

So explain why the US feel threatened during the Cuban missile crisis. Afterall, Cuba is a sovereign state and should be able to deploy weapons from its allies in its soil. Why did the US interpreted it as a declaration of war until an agreement was reached with the soviet Union to dismantle it?

I asked you a question in my first response to you, which you didn't answer. I'll repeat, why is the US not following the agreement of not expanding eastward and incorporating ex Soviets states in Nato?

What kind of world would it be for the west to have a standards for themselves, and a different one for others ? And of course, reserving the right to changes sides that are favourable to them only?

You can go ahead and underestimate Russia all you want, but its record stands. No nato missiles will set foot on Ukrainian soil. The best for Ukraine is to declare neutrality like Finland, who also share a border with Russia, but I won't expect that from president Ziilensky, a comedian turned politician that entertained Putin years ago.

You seems not to understand the bigger picture at play here, it's call geopolitics. It's the same reason why China joined the Korean war, Russia supported Abkhazia. Go learn independently and think for yourself, so you'll stop regurgitating western propaganda.

if you understood my last submission, you will not intentionally overlook my impartial stance. I am not taking sides. Everyone one is selfish. Its just like the ancient empires. Its the world of dominance. The more powerful you are the richer and secured. The bigger picture rest with the dragon clan. China stand to gain from most possible outcomes of this situation.

So going by the natural leading phenomenal of dominance. Great or greater power must always suffice as natural order. Who would we have be comfortable with to lead the world. Americans? Chinese? Russians? Or China/ Russia.

Russia is a super power nation, mind you not even US/NATO are afraid of Russia, rather they are only respected as a super power nation. Now that NATO is in Ukraine's border, let Russia strike if Putin has balls.

Nato is just in Ukraine as administrators, military trainers and dialogue teams let Ukraine formally sign documents and join NATO that is when you will know what Russia can do.

rentAcock:
The paper tiger strikes again. Russia has been irrelevant since the 1970s. Putin thinks he can bring back the old Soviet Union of its glory days, that ship sailed a long time ago. If NATO were to descend on Russia, they will be wiped off the face of the earth, but of course it will be a pyrrhic victory nobody wants.

Do I think they could do on Russia what they failed to do in Afghanistan and Iraq for 20yrs and 18yrs respectively?

Ponder well!

MangekyoAlt:

Putin has every right to be afraid of missiles being placed in his borders. Missiles that would be extremely difficult to defend against.
I don't think you know that this is the reason for the current ongoing tension.
Russia wants Nato to pull back with all their weapons immediately or risk war.
I mean now that those missiles haven't been installed, Russia currently does stand a chance. IT SHOULD TAKE ACTIONS NOW BEFORE IT BECOMES TOO LATE.

If russia doesn't act now, and those missiles are installed right outside their borders, it would be a very big disadvantage for them.

So act now that you can still do something about it. I mean militarily. You cannot engage the NATO & USA in a deplomatix way they're extremely arrogant and are a bunch of hypocrite.

Yes, if russia attacks a NATO member state, it would get reprisal attacks from the other NATO states. But no be only them get allies. Russia got allies too. India, China, North Korea, Iran, Belarus etc. Also, at the end of the day, both Russia and the NATO countries that attack it would be destroyed.

Russian nuclear silos were built to withstand even a nuclear attack. That means even after getting hit by these countries, Russia would reply by launching nuclear attacks on ALL those countries.

Also, it is just a few NATO member countries that possesses nukes. USA, UK, France. The rest would make do with conventional weapons. Which are not as effective as nukes. It means what those countries would get in return for every attack they launch at Russia would be 100 times bigger & more devastating

I don't think there's anyone out there who is hungry for war. No one wants war. But in this Russian situation, it is only war that can save them now. I mean have you read about the Cuba crisis? If you haven't please go read about it. Shalom

Thanks for taking your time to explain.
The fact still remains that leaders declare war, but citizens pay dearly for it with their lives and property. What will Russia gain in the end if it loses 20 million of its population?
Russia is afraid of NATO expansion and of placing missiles in Ukraine, but Russia is firing hypersonic missiles 20 miles from Ukraine border. There is an adage in Yoruba that says the executioner does not like anyone bringing sword close to his head. If Russia and China want peace why are they flaunting hypersonic missiles every other day?
This will only trigger arms race everywhere. Hypersonic missiles is not an exclusive knowledge of Russia and China. Even countries like Germany, France, Italy, UK, etc will get theirs soonest.
Shalom.

their security would be cemented! Russia lost 20 million citizens including military personnel in the world War 2 when they Nazis attacked them and they were left with no other choice than to defend.
Placing US/NATO missiles on Russian borders is an attack! Those missiles would be used to attack Russia in the Future whether you like to admit it or NOT! So losing 20 million today but securing your future is better than getting attacked in the future with those missiles and losing more than 20 million and possibly even everything.

Russia is afraid of NATO expansion and of placing missiles in Ukraine, but Russia is firing hypersonic missiles 20 miles from Ukraine border. There is an adage in Yoruba that says the executioner does not like anyone bringing sword close to his head.

this is the very first time the Russians are firing such a weapon in russian/Ukraine border. It was meant as a warning for them. Russia has conducted drills in the same border and ammased battle ready troops all as a direct warning to Ukraine and the US.

If Russia and China want peace why are they flaunting hypersonic missiles every other day?
This will only trigger arms race everywhere. Hypersonic missiles is not an exclusive knowledge of Russia and China. Even countries like Germany, France, Italy, UK, etc will get theirs soonest.

Yes, Russia and China recently flaunted their hypersonic capabilities. This is the only way of letting NATO know that they have weapons that can be used to hurt them badly if they decide to look down on them (something they're currently doing).
Meanwhile, does USA want peace too? You believe they're the god of deplomacy right? Yes?
Well USA currently have more than 800 military bases world wide. They build militratu bases everywhere and in every continent. They are the only country that have a presence in almost all the countries. They arm and send advanced military weapons to countries. How does that encourage world peace? The United States have started more wars whether directly or indirectly in the last few decades more than everyone else.

The coup the conducted in Ukraine is the major cause of this current crisis that is about to befall us all. Installing an anti-Russian govt in Ukraine is the cause of all this.

Like I said before. I stand with putin on his decision. USA after the fall of the USSR promised the Russians that they wouldn't expand Nato to the east. Now, it is the exact opposite they're doing. If the NATO/US aren't ready to back off the eastern Europe as they promised to, then they will be forced to do so. Russia won't be the only one that would lose millions of citizens. All NATO countries that engages in the war would lose too.

So if they aren't ready for that, they should adhere to the warnings of Russia and do as they're told.

Nobody prays for war. It's a very bad thing. But Putin knows he can't just invade Ukraine just like that. Let him invade first na, then we will see the true picture of who the world power is. American influence is felt everywhere in the world, where they have fought and other places. American military has Russian-Americans, Chinese-Americans, Arab-Americans, etc fighting and spying for them.


Whether we like it or not, America is the world police. They have brought moderate stability to the world, though they have their own faults and challenges. Imagine China and Russia being the world power, the brutality they will unleash no go be here.

I now understand the underlying issue, the agreement not to expand NATO to eastern Europe.
I really don't support US intermeddling in countries around the world myself. Instead of multiplying military bases and making deadly weapons, they should spend more on developing nations to uplift them from poverty.
Thanks for being civil and couth in your responses. Very much unlike most childish Nairalanders.

Thanks. The US should just keep to their promises and all these tensions would de-escalate, I can assure you.
What they're currently doing, wouldn't be accepted, if someone did it to them.
Take for example. When the soviet union deployed nuclear weapons to Cuba (within a striking range of the United States), when the US noticed, the world was brought to the brink of nuclear Armageddon! Wars and rumors of wars were heard on a daily basis. The tensions were extremely high.

It was only later that the leader of the USSR & the USA reached an agreement, and USSR withdrew their nuclear weapons and ICBMS from Cuba. USA withdrew the ones they placed in turkey too as part of the deal.

Meanwhile, this USA that you see as saints haven't even forgiven Cuba for what they did decades ago (allowing the USSR to install Nukes in their country).

Till today, Cuba is still on severe sanctions. The United States have sworn NEVER to conduct any deal with them, neither have anything to do with them. It is reported that Cuba has lost more than $600Billion+ and are poised to lose more money because of the sanctions that they US aren't looking like lifting anytime soon.

Meanwhile, Ukraine are preparing to do the exact same thing Cuba did with the USSR. They want to allow USA to go in and install their missiles thinking russia wouldn't react. If by any chance, the Russians decide to allow it slide, then so be it. But if they decide to take matter into their own hands and call it enough, then I would support them still.

Meanwhile, Ukraine is actually one of the poorest countries in Europe. The United States have been sending them billions of dollars worth of military equipments. Just as youve said, why not instead invest these money's into the country? Why not use the money to lift millions out of poverty? They could do all these and even more but they chose to give arms to people, thereby encouraging violence and war.

As powerful as Russia, Where were they when the former Soviet Union was split into about 7 nations. They would have resisted it. The truth is that they've lost Ukraine for good. What ever they think they have that's making them to beat their chest, they should know that America has gone beyond it.

I can give your dumb untrained stupid mind some examples. The world never knew about nuclear bomb until united states dropped the little boy in Japan. Nobody could comprehend that. The iron dome which is the best missile shield was displayed when hamas was raining missiles on israel, the world never knew about it. I know your stupid ass has never cross the border of the animal kingdom where you where raised and that's why you sit their and type rubbish.
