"It was very hard. There were very strong attacks," he explains. "...there were 348 impacts in one area in a single hour."
I wonder what is going to be the remains of Ukraine after this fight is over?

TenQ:
NATO-Russia summit NOT Russia -Ukraine summit!

Ukraine was NOT expanding to the east. The culprit of eastwards expansion is NATO.

Russia should have faced NATO (the violator ) and not Ukraine.
There will be no winners. Its better you go for them before they come for you. NATO is already near Russian border, in Norway, in the baltics,

TenQ:
African countries are not expansionists and thus are generally safe from each other: hence they don't need to invest in long range armaments.
Nigeria as a whole may not even have up to 50 working armoured tanks (soldiers complained so much about this in their assault against Bokoharam).

Africa is weak because of multi tribal related issues and self induced poverty caused by technological backwardness. We have never been a threat to the western powers because we refused to develop and act sensibly.
You do ot have to be an expansionist before you can buy weapons. It's for self defence of the country against external aggression, why is India buying? Pakistan buying. Its for unforseen circumstances, like what happened in libya

Africa is weak because of multidimensional poverty that came as a result of neocolonial policies.,unfair trade, paper back money, instead of resource backed money.

Our poverty is linked to the prosperity in the west, so why won't they be of you, the distabilisation, arm supply, imf and World Bank policies are used to constantly check Africa to make sure its falls in line.

TenQ:
Nigeria can afford them but it is NOT cost effective to a nation whose major enemy is not her neighbours but Bokoharam. These kind of military hardware also expire with time (you can't keep them for more than 6 years unused, they become unstable and unpredictable) ....not cost efficient at all.
A country of 200million can not defeat boko Haram, can't you see that they created an enemy to fight for the last 10 years.

The problem of Africans are themselves: the West and other developed world capitalizes on our divisions to cause the worst of us to rule us so that bad policies are made to our detriment.
Unfortunately, its still our problem.
We choose not to say enough is enough. to our selfish leaders who sell us out.

The truth is that our brains have been colonized and enslaved
It is the bitter truth

Yes these make money but useless for african market. Countries like Iran may be interested though
No country will bully you with these types of weapons

Imf and world Bank policies have never been positive, the Malaysians and Singaporeans did the opposite of everything Imf and world Bank told them and they got result.

Mental slavery is our problem and not the West.
Countries like North Korea, China, India, Iran has proved that if we can only realize the nature of our bondage and seek/choose to be free, we shall suddenly grow towards greatness.
Until then, we remain blind by choice

It's very difficult to come across a Russian trained Nigerian in government in Nigeria, because they want to keep them out, they are very few.

I agree with you on this one, but that is not all. Lack Electricity in nigeria is a deliberate act and not a lack of engineers or expert or finance.

The major threat to
India is China and Pakistan
The major threat to
Pakistan is India
The major threat to
North korea is South Korea and USA
The major threat to
Iran is Israel

Who are the major threats to Nigeria, Cameroon, Ghana, Niger Republic, Benin Republic, Togo ?

The alternative is scary.
If USA and Russia annihilates each other, it leaves just China to take world leadership. If you aren't disturbed about this, I am.

They feel that all problems can be solved by throwing money at it.

Two of my lecturers were Russian trained. One in Physics and the other in Mathematics.

It wasn't a deliberate act but the lack/stoppage of scholarships to study in Russia by Nigerian goivernment.
Language is another problem. Most Nigerians will seek for admission to read in Englis speaking nations

When we have selfish and dumb leaders who need money to borrow at the detriment of the nation, this is what you get. Don't forget that IMF and WOrld Bank dont force nations to take loans from them

Corruption , Religious bigotry and Nepotism is our problem with respect to BokoHaram and even the so-called Bandits.
They are internally sponsored.
Dont forget that UAE reported the names of key northerners sponsoring Bokoharam in Nigeria and till today, the security architecture of Nigeria is still studying it
