TenQ:

Ukraine wanted to join NATO because of Russia's aggression to it. If Ukraine had felt safe with Russia, she wouldn't even dream of becoming a Member of NATO.

At the same time, Russia is against NATO only because of USA. Russia may not mind Ukraine being part of a joint defence force of Europeans but not NATO.

Russia may invade Ukraine but it will be difficult for it to occupy it. It will also be seriously economically damaging for Russia for a long time. In the case of WW3 coming up, Russia will still loose out because it cannot fight on multiple fronts and win. I don't know any strong allies that Russia has in the world except the Moslem world led by Iran.

China will watch the East and the West destroy each other and hope for an opportunity to take over world leadership and dominance.

You'll be surprised who's behind Russia.
All the rogue states.
And there's no "Moslem world" it's just Iran on the list.

Double0h7:
I am not condoning what Russia is doing but would any country sit back and allow it's neighbour to join their enemies?

If Ireland was to join China now and allow China to build military base there, I wonder if the UK would give them their sovereignty and sit back while China aims missiles at the UK. This shit is hypocrisy by the West.

spot on analysis

Roon9:


Do you even know the role of America in world politics?

Yes I do.
I run programs at the UNGA every year for the past 3 years. I have working meetings with Council for Foreign Relations, Washington DC with former Ambassadors as a consultant. I have done programs with Ministry of Foreign Affairs. I was part of 2019 Doha Forum. I have new business relationships with Chatham House.

The most extreme thing that can be done to Russia is sanctions. And he won't be affected by it. Only the poor Russians will be impacted.. even if the Russian economy contracts, Putin will be fine..

You, the US or anyone cannot do anything right now. Putin has decided to be a despot, and that's it.

And the whole world now knows sanctions doesn't stop despots. Iran, DPRK, Syria etc are examples.

Or when POTUS finishes with the huff and puff, will US or NATO engage Russia militarily?

Crimea was annexed, and what did US position in world politics achieve?
Taiwan is soon to be consumed fully by China and the US position in world politics won't do anything.

Please don't just read all these wannabe social media researchers using Facebook and Twitter and accept it as truth or reality.

I will say to you again, there is nothing the US position in world politics can do to stop Putin right now unless he dies from untimely and sudden death.

The world won't support proxy war. Even US or NATO members won't put boots on the ground or fire shots towards Russia.

Skooltynz:


You blame Putin?
Why can't NAto mantain their lane and let peace reign,no reasonable country wants to be surrounded by enemies America and Nato should leave two Slavic brothers alone let them sought out their differences.


Like for Russia share for NATO

So he decides to ignore all talks and engage in war. How do you feel about the pictures above. They've not even joined the NATO and invasion of this scale has happened. All I see here is ego and power drunkenness at work

Civilian collateral damage.

Bigchristo:
The whole of Europe condemned Russia actions because they’re are under NATO except Belarus that stands with Russia, US also have military base around almost every territories in the world who is kicking against it? Who give them the right to do so? Why can’t other countries do it without consequences? What the US do once other countries do it y’all start screaming. To me Russia is doing what the US has done in the past is nothing new

Who's saying Russia too shouldn't have military bases?

Putin is just an arsse

Just40:
You really don't get it... This is all about the US

Remember when they almost Nuked the world during the Cuban missile crisis? This is similar

US has been protecting weak countries while weakening strong countries who are known for terrorism.

Countries like Germany, Japan, United Kingdom etc are strong Countries. If the US has been wrong all these while, they would have condemned its actions. You cannot tell me that these countries and all other countries in Europe are fools who look away while USA continues its unacceptable indulgence.

Someone just need to assassinate Putin to end this rubbish.

Skooltynz:
Oh Lord!! The innocent will suffer this ,mans government has failed!

Look at the firefighters putting out the fire in that 5th picture, something that is near impossible in Nigeria and one failed presidential aspirant with a dead political career wants the whole of Africa to be involved/engaged in world war.

Yes they are fools who look away and create false justifications ...

The US share the loot with them, what do you expect...



Go and tell the Iraqis they are know for terrorism and that is why the US invaded their country and you'll receive a slap.

That will be the beginning of a greater war... If you don't know, learn Russian history

ocelot2006:


Are NATO bases located in these countries?

Did they hurt Russia at any time

Invitationn:

You'll be surprised who's behind Russia.

The List: The enemy of my enemy is my friend... Those who have a problem with USA!?

Just40:

Oga many Russians are into this war because they fear Putin, all it needs is just abrave Russian to take him out, it ends there.

So, you're telling me you're the only wise man because you know better than the aristocrats and elites of those countries. America spends billions of dollars in all its peace keeping operations. So, tell me the loot it shares with them.

Akwamkpuruamu:
Too bad of Russia. For those supporting Russia fir fear of NATO attacks, Are u aware that Poland, Romania are boundary nations of Russia and are in NATO. Have the US used any of them to attack Russia?

Oga check your map.....boundary with Russia na Ukraine, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Mongolia, Finland ....

Bulgaria and Romania only shares the black sea with them( sea of azov)... Though much closer to Odessa and vinitsya (both in Ukraine)


Again check & read your map Mr.

babajero:

Then you don't know the current Russian reverence of Putin.

The man has elevated the living standard of most Russians and none of that is going to happen.

Where do you think those billions go if not to companies in those various countries.

babajero:

No, they wouldn't... These regions Are more Russians than you'd think..... Donestk(don bas) , lugansk, kharkov.......

Just40:

Where those billions go is still an assumption. Provide statistical evidences if you're so sure.

Even the native Russians are protesting against Putin's actions. Who are you to decide what is right for those people?

Check the defence contracts and which contractor gets which contract, then you can check which mercenary get which contract..

These are all public knowledge and not assumption.

Because no one wants war, especially Russia having to attack their own blood brothers in Ukraine...Their history runs too deep.

Unfortunately Russia has had enough for 8 years of watching on.

Are you sure you know the Russia you are writing about, the difference between Russia and North Korea is landmass, they both have low economy, even the ones they generate or borrowed is infused into developing weapons.

It is not the same do anyone dash biafra land, they name it that since they don't want to belong and address as Nigeria. if to say Nigeria dash east land and the people want to remain in Nigeria but this there's no comparison I read about Genghis Khan use to give people land and this land was giving to Ukraine by Lenin in 1922 so they live together with Russia population there

babajero:

When did Nigeria start to exist, and when did the East start to exist, every region formed Nigeria and has the right to leave when the time is right, nobody knew Nigeria before 1914 and officially in 1960, Nigeria is just fractions that its breaking is inevitable. The North is just playing politics, and they know is a matter of time, while the west is just playing second fiddle out of greed in order to get what they can before Nigeria dissolve.
