wow! so people didn't die of COVID in China and Russia abi.
China knows the road map yet there's a recent spike of COVID cases in Hong Kong.

For all the multi-polar world you guys so desperately want, can you mention just two countries that have received financial aid from the so called China? not loans, aids meaning not to pay back.
Not need to even talk of Russia on that one.

when they don't carry Africans along on the world stage, you guys play race card not knowing those guys understand you people prefer to suffer and smile than actually doing something.
it's the one that make you suffer that you guys praise the most

You are being biased by a factor of 10 as you think that the basis of World Leadership is helping parasitic blocs or deepening philanthropy.

There were world powers that enslaved and still enslave others. There were world powers who show benevolence and there will be world powers who will not give a shiiiit.

Philanthropy isnt a criteria to being world power, even when Africa was world power during the reign of Egypt, we conquered Israel and enslaved the Israelis, read your Bible book of histories. So why would you make philanthropy to Africans a criteria when Africans actually enslaved others during our own leadership?

You are myopically biased in your assertion.

You are very incorrect. This is about security. Russia wants to secure its backyard while US and EU want to plant things there, and Ukraine is almost welcoming them. Same story with other countries around Russia. You guys should go and study the history of Eastern Europe and the West to fully understand what they are all doing.

If Russia wasn't such a bully would her neighbors seek to join NATO?

When you harass and trample on your brother, would you be shocked when he decides to join forces with an outsider?

You can not use a military action on a Nuclear state. It will result into a world war. NATO or US is not going to start a world war because of Ukraine. It is not going to happen. The only weapon they can use is sanctions.

So China has joined now. it's not only Russia again.

wait, let's leave media speculation and all that, to you what is Russia fighting with NATO for? Soviet Union is gone, communism is gone in Europe, so how is NATO anti-Russian?
Second question, if NATO whose new objective is the security of Europe and defending human rights is disbanded right now, how rich and populated is the likes of Estonia, Latvia, Czech and other non-super power European countries to raise an Army to protect their sovereignty?

NATO is an allied force, who exactly are they allying against. When Putin asked bill Clinton to join, why was he declined. The whole of body language of NATO is anti Russia and the fact that other countries are not scared by the increasing power of NATO is saddening because NATO countries will sabotage any group of countries trying to replicate the same thing they are doing. To answer your second question, these countries were part of USSR, US is just giving them NATO alliance to make sure they do not go back an ally to Russia but the truth is they are just benchwarmers in NATO, nothing they say will influence NATO's decision.

If NAZI, have not moved her best military men to East front and invaded the USSR then she could have take over UK.
The biggest battle of WW2, was fought in East Front.

It was when germany invaded poland that made britain and france to declare war on Germany. And dem hear am. So if Russia dare bomb Ukraine,it will trigger world war 3.

of course the sanctions affected, but it took time to navigate and organise ,they will make more money without sanction and will still create alternatives with sanctions and make money .they are both losing .it is not a one way thing.

No need arguing this mate. More sanctions are waiting; weightier ones for that matter. Sanctions don't finish. And there is no new world order. If ever there was something like that it will be China. Russia is a poor country. Till date Russia cannot even match Portugal's GDP per capita and they have been trying for ages. Apart from Moscow and St. Petersburg most other Russian cities are messed up.

New world order? Lol... China would be laughing at your statement. Even China no want war. Many people for the sake of hatred or pure boredom want a change of the guard, but no, the US is centuries ahead of every other country when it comes to military abilities and intelligence. For me: US, UK, Israel, then others

Even China cannot afford a full blown confrontation with India. India is in space, medicine, nuclear warfare, everything and they don't make noise. Let Putin go and sit down. This one he will lose it a million times over. The West actually want him to make a move so they will cordon him off and he knows hence the merry go round.


Normal Yinmu Iran and North Korea has been living with sanctions for ages Yet they’re still producing Nuclear weapons.
Only African countries sanctions can have effects on.
The west are not waiting for Putin to make any move. They know Putin will invade the least they can do is sanctions nothing more nothing less.

Russia has over $600 billion in foreign reserves.
Russia has the largest land mass with plenty of Natural resources
Plenty of gas and crude oil
It is self sufficient in food
It produces more wheat that the US and is number 3 in the world in wheat production and number 1 in wheat exports meaning it produces a lot more than it needs

And a small Germany has a bigger economy than its entirety?

Shouldn’t that tell you a lot!

They used their media to brainwash their citizens but now with social media it's difficult to hide the truth from them.

Those inner states apart from St. Petersburg and Moscow you can easily get a female companion for cheap. Lol... They are willing to run away with you so long as you have money to take care of them. Their media show you Moscow and St. Petersburg but the rest cities are shit.
I was actually suprised Russia would even make that silly move. I mean that country called Russia is struggling grin

I dream of a multi polar world, a world where there are multiple competing powers and not just one. Balances creates healthy competition. I remember the bromance between Putin and Bush, but it was an epiphany for Putin to realise that Bush was looking for an opportunity to strike Russia. People seems to forget that Putin asked to join Nato but was turned down.

You can't blame him. He was a young and inexperienced politician back then, but as time unfold, he realise that Russia is the lamb that the shepherd (the west) was waiting to be slaughtered. He felt betrayed and that changed him. A monster was born.

Sanctions alone are not enough to deter Putin. European and US leaders must put a military response on the table if they really intend to stop putting. Confiscating the assets of few Russian Oligarchs won’t put any serious fear into Putin or scare him enough to withdraw his 200k troops from Donetsk and Luhansk.
