You are very much ignorant and not informed by your comments. For you to equate Russia with Texas shows your level of ignorance.
Why not ask why America and NATO are not sending their troops to help Ukraine. Russia has nuclear war heads that can wipe out the whole Europe. Russia is supplying 40% of gas the whole of Europe is using. So Nobody can underestimate Russia militarily and economically. Wait and see when Russia will start her sanction against Europe it will just cut off the gas line to Europe. As we are entering winter imagine what will happen.
So comment what you know and don't expose your ignorance.

Russia is supplying Europe with gas, aren't they paying for it?
What if your customers stop patronizing you, can Russia use all the gas alone?
If you reduce the gas advantage Russia has in Europe, what else is there? Their economy keeps declining and this war will only make it worse

Europe is already planning an alternative to the gas they get from Russia

Picking a side in the Russia - Ukraine faceoff for some Nigerian Nairaland self acclaimed analysts is a matter of emotions devoid of clearly worded objectivity.

For the Pro-West, Putin is a dictator and should be stopped at all cost. Most don’t even understand background nor ramifications of some actions and in actions of Ukraine and her western allies and supporters. They also forget easily about the cuban missile crisis and how US and her allies reacted.

For the Pro-Putin, The West are hypocrites with their continuous media propaganda. Some pro-Putin are also “haters” of the American system and people and so are happy for any possible destruction of the American people.

What both parties lack is objectivity to analyze the situation based on its own peculiar premises which will enable them to reach far reaching logical conclusions that the only people to suffer from the shenanigans of both the West and Putin are the innocent Ukrainian people who might not recover from the destruction this shameful show of power would cause.

No matter who’s right or wrong, the only results of war is destruction.

All I see is criticism if you cannot give us an unbiased and logical assessment of what is playing out. But I definitely agree that the result of war is destruction.

I believe putin could have used a more diplomatic means to win his half brother to his side and not by creating unnecessary tension every where.

Putin has this in mind long ago but could not try it during the rain of Donald Trump cos he know Donald was more crazy and strong headed than he is so he waited for the lower livered guy Biden to step in hence having a field day in Ukraine...

As detrimental as the situation may be. Ukraine should have known better. West’s determined to erase Soviet Union memories at all cost, Putin’s determined in keeping the memories alive. NATO has no business with Ukraine. Trade with them, introduce more prospective packages not building war zones to threaten Russia. Putin is defending what he’s appointed to defend, the absolute safety of Russian Territory. USA, UK, NATO and whole EU are not exactly friends of Kremlin. Why lurking around their borders

US of A would never ever allow that from Russia or any perceived enemy of theirs

Inishalom:
The most powerful shark in the sea is the great white shark. That doesn't mean it should attack the tiger shark (the second most powerful shark) at any point. Of course the great white can confidently defeat the tiger shark, but definitely not without being scathed with life threatening bruises. If this happens, it'd be vulnerable to other sharks of the sea, who may see an opportunity to pounce on the weak and bruised great white.

The US ain't scared of Russia, but scared of what may be the aftermath if they engage Russia in a direct military confrontation. This is what holds the US back.
If it happens that America fights Russia,( just like the great white shark and the tiger shark case study), America would win but, the economy, state and lives of the people would be at a point of near degeneration. This can happen because US would have invested so much Militarily and Economically to fight a fellow super power, and this can be an open opportunity for other enemy nations like China, Nk, Iran to exploit and finish off.

America does not want this to happen, hence the reason for their non involvement.

Please do not insult me!
You can counter this intelligently.

Wow, best NL comment. Kudos Bro

toothless bull dog. Biden and Barack Obama, I dont see any difference, weak leaders. This single act of Putin, just show the weakness of U.S.A.

My biggest fear now, I don't pray for China to invade Taiwan, is going to be bloody. China that worship "Dragon"

Now I miss Trump.

Immediately I read your first sentence I knew u we're heading for trump the biggest disaster in American political history. Under trump NK acquired sophisticated missiles that can hit mainland america directly! And you're here comparing biden with a national loser and nutjob

Wow, best NL comment. Kudos Bro

War is War Boss, that's why it's called war. Isreal has been unleashing hell on Palestine for decades without thinking of consequences. United States is a world power but they are not the only major power. Ukraine will be ruins if Putin continues to have his ways. That's Putin, he's a born warrior. Dialogues will only continue to bore him and he will continue testing the might of the west on this matter until he knows how far he can go. $600 Billion War Chest. 10-20 years still going strong

HonNL:
Asked if he thinks Putin will go beyond Ukraine, Biden answered "yes", what he is trying to do is to reform the old Soviet Union...

Just in: Ukrainian forces reclaim Hostomel Airport, earlier seized by Russian forces.

Russia will fall.

The group advising Putin no love the man & Russia.

Bloomberg: Russian Billionaires Lose $39 Billion in a Day on Ukraine Attack

Russia’s wealthiest individuals were already feeling the squeeze from escalating tensions between the nation and Ukraine.

It got much worse for their net worth after Russian President Vladimir Putin’s decision to invade Ukraine. In less than 24 hours, they lost $39 billion -- more than they had up to that point this year.

Na only mouth Biden get jare

Yusufisraelj:


This your talk reeks of political gaps on world stage.

1. Find out why Putin is invading Ukraine. (If you do you'll find out on one hand there's a legitimate undertones to what he's doing, hence US response). Currently I'm not picking sides.

2. Find out why USA or NATO is not sending her troops yet.

Fools rush in, from WW1 till date, US has always entered wars to come out on top, and they usually enter last.

Understand the situation first, then make a calculated response, this a war Russia has been planning since 2016, and you want US to just rush in. Them go sell your enemy bring change.

Some people still have sense in this forum.
See something... this was between Russian and Finland just before the WWII. Russia is at the right of cause.

MadamVanessa:



Sleepy Joe is a toothless bulldog that barks for nothing.

Putin is daring USA because he knows USA under sleepy Joe is nothing but just as an average countries.

Putin wouldn't dare try this if Trump was still the president. Madness for jam madness na, I trust my daddy Trump. Infact Dem never born Putin to do all these.

Na wa, some of you people here just post without making any research whatsoever. Is it trump that praised Putin for the invasion that would have curtailed it

Madam Trump, all you av been reading is online trash...even ur daddy Trump can't dare Putin because the consequences will be bloody. Biden is not d only Administrator in the US, Infact NATO entirely knows they can't stop Putin because they know very well that Russia, China, North Korea, Iran and other Russia allies have nothing to loose. US WorldPower is already dangling and China is ready to take over should US try to intervene.

All US have is mouth, now they av used their mouth and media to push Ukraine to problem and all they av been shouting is irrelevant sanctions.

Dalil8:
Very weak response.

He should bomb Russia abi...ode. you want US to fight a mad dog. you think war between two giants is a joke. You think you are save if Russia and US should be at war?

I leave in the US, trust me, we don't want war. We wanna sleep with two eyes closed. We also don't want taxpayers money spent on war that doesn't directly affect us

Action is what's needed.

so e of una go think say na to just come write nonsense una think say na Nigeria vs Boko Haram war. Nop as it stands now a little mistake by Russia will make NATO enter the war. They no better than all this dumb ass e-warriors calling Biden weak yet he is better than buhari in kilometers

Trump was Putin lapdog, what are talking about?
He refused to say anything bad about him. He even sided with him over us intelligence. Why would Putin bother to test him while he was doing his dirty job? Trump campaign to withdraw the us from NATO . What else is bigger than NATO in Putin wish list?

Praxis758:




The last weapon that the Russian government and their elites feared the most is to unleash the sanction of SWITCH on them.

Supplying gas to China is easy, but remember they won't receive the payment in/with cowrie. Sanction of SWITCH makes it absolutely impossible to transact business with Russia.

Simply analogy is like you having phone and the network provider of puts you on 'airplane mode'.

Just wait and see how Russians themselves will turn the table against Russia once they start feeling the heat of the sanction..

You may be right on that because sanctions against Russia is growing daily and some Russians have risen up to register their displeasure about the invasion of Urkraine.

sanctions not solution! russia,too,must be attacked immediately!!

tonididdy:
The thing about sanctions is both sides pay dearly.


With the image the West portrayed to the world and to most especially president zelensky and it's ukranian people was "fear not, we will fight with you ".

We didn't know those promises were in sanctions, now the stupid boy of a president has gone to war with a mad man.

Where is the West? Gone! ... they gifted them weapons that are in English language with no American to teach them how to use.

Cowardice comes with a gold star sometimes! , I hope Taiwan, Hongkong and Korea are watching

the Ukraine president is not smart at all.

Some say US responds weakly, I don't think so. We need to prevent a world war because of collateral damage. More so, Ukraine is not a member of NATO. Countries under NATO cannot just jump into a war without a consensus from the organization itself.

Warsaw pact was established in 1955 as a response to NATO but could not survive beyond 1990s. Poland used to be the headquarters but today, Poland is a member of NATO. It has been a big slap for the Russians for too long, so, Putin is striving to bring back the old Bipolarity gradually by stopping the expansion of NATO and finding a way to co-opt its former allies.

Russia has been having this great influence in Europe and especially among NATO members, because it supplies about one third of European energy. Russia is powerful but economically, the country is relatively weak.

This war against Ukraine will not last long, but if Ukraine is a sovereign state, will they shy away from becoming a member of NATO?

Really?

The Russia I know are not known for making empty threats like Nigeria oo

Fuckingmallam45:
Remember Russia has an economy about the size of the state of Texas. Maybe a little smaller. Their economy could be tipped over by America imposing sanctions. Even a blow hard like Putin knows this. That fact plus the ability for the Ukraine to give Russia a hell of a black eye even though they may not win the war doesn't means they will not try. Putin’s threat to turn America into ashes is like the little drunk guy in a bar who has had four Karate lessons threatening to kick the big guys ass. It's all bluff or he has had too much to drink or both. In spite of boastful claims Russia's military is about two decades behind America's. If he tried to start a conflict his military would turn on him.

Russia invades Ukraine on many fronts �

Absolutely! am just to anxious

israelmao:
China is yet to take a specific position on Russia-Urkraine war and according to report,Russia which supplies 26% of crude oil and and 38% of gas to European countries may channel its crude oil to China since it is likely to lose out because of ongoing heavy sanctions.China is confused at the moment because it also have a good bilateral trade relations with Urkraine.UK has imposed sanctions on three key Russian banks and three Russian billionaires who do business in UK.

This is getting interesting and more dicey especially for China. Still following!
