More than a week ago, people who think and analyze events, came out and published a possible war breaking out. Yet a Nigerian man will stay home, read people’s ideas and claim it to be his, and people like you will cockride them. Probably you are who you speak of. I hate crooks.
Think!
Lol.. only a week ago? Has he not been saying things like this since last year...and always mentioning Russia as the main antagonist and yall bashing him.

They provoked russia with its NATO and EU allies, they went to russia's doorstep and pilled Ukraine out to allign it to west while they made it very clear that russia is an enemy, you cant accept western puppet in your regional influence.
Remember the cuban mesile crises?
How is USA, NATO AND EU?? USA is far away from them..

Surprisenly, Boris Johnson seems to be a more confident leader than Pa Joe Biden talking with cowardice.


To hell with Putin, if he has nukes, plenty other nations have nukes then lets all nuke the world.



It will be easier to completely destroy Russia than for Russia to destroy the rest of the world.



Putin needs a strong message, forget all those nuke nonsense, he can't dare it and if he dares then others respond with hundreds and Russia will be erased from planet earth.




What nonsense
Exactly. I've heard NL kids screaming Russia's nuclear powers as though na only Russia get nuclear bomb.

Well the last time I used nairaland last year was September, so “yall bashing him” is false.

On April 2021, Russian troops were seen at Ukrainian borders, I couldn’t remember the podcasts and blogs I read about the possible wars, hence I quoted an article from a week ago.

However, my point is, as far back as April, there were analysis of possible invasion of Ukraine and a resistance which would cause a war.

So credit is universal, no man owns it. No “prophet” owns it, if it were to be a true statement, he would have made it since 2020 probably.
Why did he wait for tensions to arise before copying peoples analysis?

Less talk please. It appears Putin knows that the worse other world leaders will do is to apply sanctions, and they don't give a fvck about that. Meanwhile I hope Buhari doesn't think that by Borris Johnson's statement of UK and her allies responding, Nigeria qualifies to respond?? Borris Johnson isn't referring to allies who only seek to collect loans.

Na so them do about Covid. When Covid no dey, nobody prophecy, when e still dey just for China, nobody prochecy, but as soon as e spread, prophesy start to dey roll out here and there.

They prophecy say Trump na Messiah and he no go lose election. Even after Biden win, they prophecy new things until court boot Trump.

[quote author= post=110493832]Countries and leaders usually react to humiliation in one of two ways — aggression or introspection. After China experienced what it called a “century of humiliation” from the West, it responded under Deng Xiaoping by essentially saying: “We’ll show you. We’ll beat you at your own game.”

When Putin felt humiliated by the West after the collapse of the Soviet Union and the expansion of NATO, he responded: “I’ll show you. I’ll beat up Ukraine.”

Yes, it’s all more complicated than that, but my point is this: This is Putin’s war. He’s a bad leader for Russia and its neighbors.
But America and NATO are not just innocent bystanders in his evolution.

When a major conflict like Ukraine breaks out, journalists always ask themselves: “Where should I station myself?” Kyiv? Moscow? Munich? Washington? In this case, my answer is none of these.
The only place to be for understanding this war is inside Russian President Vladimir Putin’s head. Putin is the most powerful, unchecked Russian leader since Stalin, and the timing of this war is a product of his ambitions, strategies and grievances.

But, with all of that said, America is not entirely innocent of fueling his fires.

How so? Putin views Ukraine’s ambition to leave his sphere of influence as both a strategic loss and a personal and national humiliation.
In his speech on Monday, Putin literally said Ukraine has no claim to independence, but is instead an integral part of Russia, its people are “connected with us by blood, family ties.” Which is why Putin’s onslaught against Ukraine’s freely elected government feels like the geopolitical equivalent of an honor killing.

Putin is basically saying to Ukrainians (more of whom want to join the European Union than NATO): “You fell in love with the wrong guy.
You will not run off with either NATO or the E.U. And if I have to club your government to death and drag you back home, I will

I don't think so. He said the war is going to usher in the end of the world or something like that. Wars have been fought from the beginning of time and would be fought till the end.

Wars don't mean the end of the world.

Very simple and surprised the world is scared , when they have same amount of Nuke Russia has
Its about leadership.

The current leaders of western world today are sissies and cowards. How can Russia be bold enough to challenge the rest of the world and they allow it? Even US with all their military and economic might can't dare the world, talk more of a poor developing country like Russia.




Russia is a developing country with lots of her citizens hungry, jobless and underpaid despite having almost zero illegal immigrants due to their wickedness and racism.


Many Russian girls are in South Korea doing prostitution to survive. They are also in many other western countries doing dirty jobs to survive because their country is broke.


Having nuke or military wares doesn't make you powerful, do you have the economy might to wage and sustain war for years?


If the west removes Russia from SWIFT they will be doomed yet they are waging senseless war of ego.



I don't blame Putin, I blame spineless leaders like Pa Joe Biden and his fellow cowardly western leaders of today. Stalin couldn't dare it when Russia was a big robust USSR talk more of now. Its just about cowardly US and western leaders of today. And since they knew they are spineless why push Ukraine?


They should have backed out from day one and not pushing innocent Ukraunian kids and women and aged to this heartbreaking death angry
