Ukraine got the message. That's all.
The same US that warned her citizens to leave immediately, adding they won't carry out any rescue missions in a war Russia is directly involved as it'll lead to a World war.
Now you want us to believe the US wanted the war more? grin Are you being serious now?
Tell me what the US will gain from engaging the Russians, risking the life of all her citizens in the process, over what? Ukraine?
Russia's demand was clear, "If them born you(Ukraine) well, join NATO grin
And Ukraine got the message.
The message to the citizens was clear, leave now because when confrontation will start it will be very bloody and there will be no time for rescue missions .. That alone meant he US wasn't joking. The US know that if they don't send the right message to Russia, China will take advantage and invade Taiwan too.. And the US president still made it clear that the door is very open for Ukraine to join NATO so if your Putin wan invade make e invade now because it is just a matter of time and Ukraine will be a full NATO member.. We both know that if the US had stayed neutral and remained quiet, Putin would have invaded since.. Putin knows this is a war he can't win, no one counter can win a war right now against multiple countries... Na when the war go start na u go know say America get mumu botton for all e allies, and they will have no option than to join.. Who Russia go fit really beat their chest say go join them for this war? The Americans will always bring the war closer to him and the believe putin will use anything close to a nuclear weapons, because even when it comes to that, America is more than equal.. And mark this, Ukraine will still join NATO

In the events that Ukraine membership into NATO is seeming inevitable, the Russians would have build a base in Mexico and/or Cuba as a bargaining chip.
Or simply just invade Ukraine on the night they declare membership.

Trash . America and the West should admit Ukraine into NATO if they don’t then Russia is the winner . You guys are just blinded by propaganda.
Russia only promised invasion if NATO admits her (Ukraine)that’s it.
From what Putin said yesterday he still wanted to divide Ukraine he’s seeking for independence for some part of Ukraine who’re Pro Russia. I still don’t get how a grown up man will be brainwashed to the extent he can see anything for himself it’s a big pity and shameful.
Look at the bright side my friend there are more advanced weapons in poland and other NATO countries that surrounds Russia. Even Finland that's Russia back door tho not a NATO country is now conducting patrols with NATO warplanes in certain airspace that would have caused Russia to be aggressive. Denmark have militarized one of it's island in case of an invasion, which is a close proximity to Russia also. it's sad how most thought process is seen as you evil you good, you bad and you that, rather than a chess game. Russia got Crimea but now have their military bases more exposed and contented with new operational areas of NATO.
Finally listen to what you said about Russian speaking Ukrainians, who are a minority been used as an avenue to hold down an entire country that Russian isn't their official language. If you agree on that Putin stance then it just like hypothetical saying the Fulanis in your country can justify the take over of some parts of Nigeria just because they have a small section that speaks Hausa and fulafude. After all they are the fabric of the Nigerian armed forces and have the leverage to do this.
Pockets of sublime insult shows one's level of maturity, which am sorry to say is not present. Learn to keep your emotions in check and be rational.
The Russians and the west knows going to war is a zero sum game. Try read up on the zero sum game which is also known as game theory to get a deeper insight.

As God? undecidedNot exactly.
But as a country that has the potential to start a world war whenever it wants. Or a country that has the potential to cause an unimaginable chaos/catastrophe that'll be felt, firsthand, all over the world I agree.
Also, we're not saying Ukraine won't/shouldn't join NATO. We're saying, they should join if they born them well grin

Crimea has gone two more states to go. Putin is playing his cards well . Same strategy he used for Crimea will play down with These two states that are seeking independence.

More and more states will break away from Ukraine for the fear invasion .
Putin knows all the games he’s playing.
The west uses media propaganda Putin uses martial law .
Putin still maintains the Cuba treaty will still be respected if the west breaks it and cry fowl when Russia do the same in Cuba it’ll be crystal clear they’re biased . America cannot risk Russia having a military base in Cuba because of Ukraine.
I believe you’ll not have the moral justification to criticize Russia if they want to do the same In Cuba.

It’s a win win for Russia. Take Ukraine precepts by precepts is the joker they’re using .

You capped bro.
Biden was very clear.
France's Emmanuel Macron has been critical of the US since Trump. And has been challenging their influence in Europe.
You really think the Germans will forget about the Nord streams pipe work and gas supply from Russia they so much depend on because the Americans have their mumu button?
You gotta be kidding me.
Ukraine is not even a member yet so they don't have any obligation to fight for them.

You mean the whole world will go to war because of a freezing wasteland in Ukraine?

Seriously? grin

You do realize every country has their shit to deal with right now.

Even Germany who is the biggest EU member and France to some extent had shown sign of not joining any war for Ukraine and have always insisted on dialogue. And these are the big guys in NATO that vetoed that Ukraine should not be admitted after they applied, because they don't want a conflict with Russia in Europe
Putins fight for Ukraine is unjust and illegal. He and the whole world are aware of it. If America and Britain are drawn into a war to liberate Ukraine from Injustice, definitely Germany and France will throw their weight in support directly by physically joining the war or indirectly by supplying arms and intelligence and logistics to their American allies.

You have the capacity to speak this constructively but chose to be emotional in your first response? Try put your emotions in check and you might just get a call on some projects. Am European by birth and have been in the mix of things on different diplomatic levels and capacity. Majority of times viewers on this thread are observers not only from Nigeria but across the world, I choose to engage because I work in Nigeria and connected by marriage. Not everything is black and white the way most of you think it's all about america and Russia. There was Europe before america and will continue to be Europe. The biggest threat to our existence is Russia, so if it means america fighting along side europe, we welcome it. A template for autocracy will see majority of African countries go into a very dark period, because the unity of nations is a mythical homogeneity amidst diversity. Just as it's seen in the Soviet era were hundreds of nations with different nations from Poland to Tajikistan was subject under Russian rules. Just as Macao, Hong kong ( who are Cantonese are wrongly identified as Chinese), eastern Turkmenistan aka Xinjiang who are of Turkic origin been absorbed into china and the list goes on.
The west isn't a perfect Place neither does it run a perfect system, but the beauty is that the rule of law gives everyone to voice their dissatisfaction and if it's not been heard permits the oppressed to start revolution.

How far has he really kept them? They share boundary with Poland, a full time member of NATO.. There are so many things you consider before going to war..
Oga, let's don't argue this. How many countries will do a quarter of what Putin has been doing and walk away so comfortably without invasion other than sanctionshuh

Putin put that in consideration when he insisted that Ukraine shouldn't be added into NATO.
Whether Ukraine would be added in future is what I don't care. All I know is that, Putin has got hard balls which no African leader have.

Besides, Putin never had the intention of striking first.

Just to let you know that it's not compulsory for a member state to join in a war.
Re: Russia Announces End Of Crimea Military Drills, Troops Leaving by Stankovic22: 2:17pm On Feb 16, 2022
Russia really wanted to invade but didn't expect the west to keep their findings secret like that did with Crimea.

When Russia took Crimea, the west got the information before hand but kept it secret think a silent diplomacy would change Russians mind about the invasion but that didn't work... They invaded part of Georgia too using the same tactics.

This time around their plan was to take over Donbars region controlled by pro-Russian separatists but the US caught them off-guard by making the planned invasion public.

US and NATO didn't only make it known to the public but they mobilized their forces and showed readiness to react decisively to Putin's madness.

Putin isn't scared of NATO but rather US, he can take NATO countries but you see US, he knows from history US always comes up with bloody and secret weapons the world has never seen before.

Their intervention in WW II and WW I is enough lesson

Every thing Pastor Rightousness writes here about End Time is 100% correct. Don't give yourself false hope. Read your Bible very well. God's word must come to pass. It may not be Russia/Ukraine war. But one day, you will see it coming to pass. The third world war, Armegeddon and the end of the age will be a reality soon. We don't pray for it but nobody can stop God's word. What do you do? Accept Jesus and prepare for heaven.
lolz you think this is news?

The jehovah witness thought the world was ending in 1914 due to the world War.

They looked at everything and say biblical prophecies are coming to pass.

Here's one fact you should know: "every generation thinks it's the worst either morally or due to war"

As such, they feel like they are at the end of the war.

There will always be wars and rumors of wars. And the people of that generation will feel they are the worst.

But we are in the best generation so far. The Spanish flu killed more than 20 million people and people thought it's a biblical sign.

COVID killed less and fear mongers (which most of you religious folks are) are still screaming end of the world
