Read about Russification of eastern Ukraine and Crimea during Soviet and empire era you would understand what is going on.
That hausa speakers or natives in Jos north does not mean it doesn't belong to Berom people.
That yorubas are majority in some towns in Benin Republic doesn't mean Nigeria should start to claim those towns.
That Russian speakers are majority in some cities in eastern and crimea doesn't not mean it belong to Russia.

Can u tell why Russia government fought against chechen separatists who declared independence from Russia. Are chechen people Russians?

Are u saying if Nigeria removed English as official language, UK will attack us?

Ukraine is not Russia.

You making sense now
Thanks man

I give it to Russia military, no mass starvation of innocent women and children, no shooting of unarmed civilians, no individual burning of business premises and homes . Just professional military engagement.

Elsewhere a 10th century useless satanic military would have started starving women and children with their satanic cheerleaders singing that all is fair in fair

So, why sanctioning only Russia, and portray Ukraine as Saint? If you claim Ukrainians are defending her mother's land, so do you expect Russians to be looking like mumu? They should sanctions both countries.

The reason the Russians are finding it difficult to to advance on All fronts is a testament to the fact that NATO, EU and especially the USA have supplied Ukraine with sophisticated weapons and they are still doing so. Unless Russia stops the inflow of weapons to Ukraine, beign triumphant in the war will be really difficult for Russia. Any possible victory for the Russians will even be a pyrrhic one.

Same thing they did during Russia inversion of Afghanistan. They provided the finance and geography, Russia toiled in vain to conquer Afghanistan until they went home shamefully after ten years of fruitless effort.
History seems to be repeating itself here, unfortunately Putin seems not to have learnt much of it.

You're making it sound like Ukraine ran to NATO after these events happened when in reality, Ukraine's attempt to join NATO (or to put it in better perspective, US and UK's frequent attempts to coerce Ukrainian leaders to apply to join NATO) was the cause of the 2014 war.

The war ended with the Minsk agreements which would make Ukraine neutral but Ukraine refused to sign.



Ukranian leaders have always been split between pro-NATO and pro-Neutrality.

But leaders calling for neturality have always been violently deposed and replaced with pro-NATO leaders as it happened in 2003 (or 05, cannot remember) and happened again a few years back.

This current issue has been on for 20+ years with US and UK urging Ukraine to apply to membership (even though Ukraine doesn't meet all the conditions to join NATO.

NATO hasn't taken Ukraine because France and Germany have always favored a neutral Ukraine to prevent any conflict with Russia.

And before you jump into Ukraine's defence, you should remember that NATO is a military alliance formed with the sole purpose of attacking and countering the military might of the Soviet Union and later, Russia.

In fact, after WWII, the US and EU wanted to invade the Soviet Union but gave up after the Soviet Union developed nuclear weapons. NATO was formed thereafter.

This war has nothing to do with NATO membership, its as a result of direct hostility to Russia foreign policy from Pro ethnic Ukrainan that feel that they cant be puppet nation to almigthy Russia federaation.

Ukraine and Russia has a lot of issues going on between them from resources to territory to offshore border, so no way Russia will do away with ukraine.
That is why Putin said he want to denazified and demillitarized ukraine meaning he is going there to uproot all anti-Russia element in ukraine

Ukraine and zelensky to the world....

US and EU has the resource to keep the ukraine war going in as much as the ukrainians are willing to fight (which they have shown the appetite and doggedness for). It is best Putin eats the humble pie and seek for a peaceful resolution.

The US is happy to from a safe distant watch russia get worn out by ukraine. At the end of the day even russia pulls out of ukraine, many of those sanctions and corporate exits will not be reversed. Also the myth of russia might has being demystified by the ukrainians

You must be suffering from at least one not to know Russia is killing civilians by shelling homes, killing them by shutting off water and power, denying them food through siege.
You are the one suffering from selective amnesia . You refuse to face up to realities that civilians were given adequate time to leave Mariupol unlike the satanically induced war policy of deliberately starvation of women and children and blockage of medicine and food aid by and outdated and uselessly hopeless military supported by their satanic cheerleaders.
Russia tanks have been close to Ukraine capital for more than 2 weeks without the harassment of innocent villagers , without individual burning of the people's houses instead they have engaged in pure military confrontation with Ukraine.

You didn't get the gist behind the sanctions mate!

Russia took war to Ukraine (invasion), Ukraine wasn't fighting a war with Russia, they're only saying no to Russian invasion.

In a simple term: it's more like coming to my flat, hitting me so badly in order not to accept a particular lifestyle which I feels suitable or fit for me.
Note: I never depended on your decision to carry out such, because I'm an independent nation.

Now you get the gist and reasons behind sanctioning just Russia right?

Silly question!

Let me explain the height of the silliness of the question you asked.

Your neighbour broke into your compound and beat-up, raped and maimed your mother, wife, sisters and all female cousins....

The rest of the neighbours from far on hearing and seeing what happened, sanctioned that your culprit neighbour for the barbaric actions.

You came back home and decided to asked your mother and sister why they opened their legs to be raped... grin

You're the one misinforming others. Does the Budapest agreement allow Ukraine to join an alliance looking to destroy a neighbor it shares historical ties with?

Russia kept to its end of the Budapest agreement until Ukraine started going against it by allying with a military alliance formed with the sole intention of destroying NATO.

The Soviet Union did not invade any country after WWII other than Afghanistan. If anything, it was the US and NATO that went on a war spree invading any nation that dared entertain the idea of becoming communism, tried abandoning the petrodollar system, or had oil or natural resources it needed.

Again, the 2008 Georgia war was the result of Georgia wanting to join NATO. In fact, Georgia and Ukraine were in this together until Georgia abandoned future attempts to join NATO after Russian invaded.

Ukraine leaders have either been pro-NATO or pro-neurality, and not pro-Russian.

Pro-NATO leaders are always aggressive with Russia and openly calling to join NATO while pro-neturality leaders never tried forming any form of alliance with Russia. They maintained good relations with the US, UK and UN but kept a good distance from NATO itself.

Please let us get our facts straight.
Hungary, Baltic states, Austria, Romania, Czech, Afghanistan , Georgia and ukranian were invaded by SU/Russia. Except, Ukraine and Georgia SU occupied some of those states during soviet era. After collapse of SU, three baltic states joined nato because Russia was weak economkcally then. Later, Georgia is becoming more democratic and pro-west. Putin was angry and RA occupied 2 regions. That was in 2008. It is not about nato. It was after the war that Georgia is looking toward NATO.

The only mistake Ukraine made was signing that budapest agreement. If ukraine has nuclear weapons, Putin wouldn't give excuse of removal of Pro- Russia government as a reason to occupy Ukraine since 2014, now invasion..

The truth is that Putin only relates with his fellow dictators or sit- tight leaders. He doesn't want to see democratic nations in Russia border. It is not about nato.

The war is all about NATO. it has been going on for over 20 years and at the time involved Georgia too until Russia attacked Georgia, causing Georgia to cease future attempts at joining NATO.

Ukraine and Russia have almost zero issues between them before this NATO issue sprung up. All ex-Soviet states have well-defined borders, so there is no issues regarding those.

De-Nazification refers to the neo-Nazis who are white supremacists who want a "pure" Ukraine without any skin color other than white and don't want any Jews. They even killed an Israeli (Arab) at the beginning of the war after mistaking him for a Russian Chechen Muslim (who look like Arabs).

Ukranians and NATO doesnt like them (and the US even sanctioned them in the past) but they're all "conditional friends" now. Their flag has Ukrainian colors with the Nazi swastika.
