The gullible ones here are those who posted a story from a "news" site owned and run by a totalitarian communist state, about a mere statement from the ambassador of a regime notorious for lying brazenly, without any reputable sources to back it whatsoever, treating this fresh new lie as if it were official news from the US government! Even worse are the either gullible or Russia-bought "moderators" who love to post such transparent nonsense to the front page.

Even before sef, America's oil import From Russia is minuscule and of zero relevance..

Yet, unwise Zalensky and small Ukrain still managed to enter Russia with 2 helicopters and destroyed Russian infrastructures and return undetected..

Best ko, fabulous ni.

After 5 weeks, powerful Russia can not defeat small Ukraine, Putin lost more than 5 generals and thousands of troops to unwise Zelensky, Ukraine is still standing, fighting and not retreating, but weak and incompetent Russia is retreating back into the hell hole they came from..

Are you people even following this war or you are just too busy peddling putin propaganda?

I wanna ask you a real question. do you really think if the plan to to level Ukraine, it won't be achieved in less that 2 hours. Honestly.

they want Ukraine to come to the negotiation table

Delusion is when you post fake news about the US buying Russian oil when in fact there is nothing wrong with the US buying any amount of oil at the moment since the ban is 2 weeks away.

Lol. When we talk about the hypocrisy of the US, some dumb idiots will attribute it to lack/denial of visa. How do you tell the world that a certain government is bad and that people should avoid buying oil from them so as to starve them of funds from invading smaller countries, but you then go behind to increase your oil purchase from the same country? Isn't that pure hypocrisy at play? Why not stick to your principles and totally starve them of funds as you have proposed? Some morons will still come here to defend this as if their unbilical cord was shipped to America at birth. For those who think most of us that criticize America, hate the US, hear this: we don't hate the US; we simply do not subscribe to the double standards and their leaders engage in. He who comes to equity must come with clean hands.

You are still not making any sense, the ban goes into effect 2 weeks from now and your rubbish about Hungry and Turkey remains your own opinion unless you have facts to show us..

The Putin lap dog in Hungry is irrelevant and his economy within the EU is too meager to even discuss or waste time on.

The weapons and drones the Ukrainians are using to eliminate Putin's army are coming from Turkey..

Germany already struck a deal with Qatar to replace Russian oil, the end is near for Putin and Russia.

Zelensky is not a wise leader. the world knows how powerful Russia is, but the only one that doesn't know is Zelensky.

imagine if it was Nigeria doing something like this to Benin, nothing like sanctions, the world will annihilate us.
but they can't do it to Russia, because Russia is very big and powerful. but Zelensky doesn't know or believe it.

instead of making peace, he is telling people who are not strong to fight and die. there is nothing glorious about death.

when your big brother at home wants to beat you, because you did something wrong, or he feels you wronged him,
there is a way you speak to him to make him calm and stop. something like.
I know you're my big brother, you're bigger and stronger than me, we're family, we aren't supposed to be fighting each
other, what will our parents think, and don't forget when brother fight to the death, a stranger inherits their properties.
we are supposed to love each other if not for ourselves, for our parents and our family name. please calm down and tell
me where I went wrong so that I can learn from you and do better.


there is no big brother that you'll speak to like this that won't calm down. if he wanted to kill you, he might just slap you

Very convenient. Not surprised about the Chinese input to the talk.
Apparently, America isn't what it used to be. So Biden can't fight alone. All that's needed is to find an aggrieved European leader or two. And what way to find them if you make them feel cheated. The US should tighten it's relationship with Europe, as a partner not as boss.

And really, the world is better as it is than with a Russian-Chinese world police

Dude if Putin wanted to wipe out Ukraine, it will happen in less than 24 hours. Putin is not weak person here. The weak people are NATO and US. If den born their ancestors well let them declare no fly zone over Ukraine. If den born their ancestors well let them send jets to Ukraine through Poland.

That idiot Zelensky cannot see that US and NATO cannot help him but he wants to fight Russia. Putin started with Ukraine not joining NATO but now Putin is asking for more and ma guy don see free pu**y he decided to spend some more time banging it to pieces...so now he wants Donbass to join Russia, he wants Crimea to be declared a free state and he wants all NATO ties severed...so who is the weak one again?

1. It's irrelevant at the moment per the US buying Russian oil, come back with that noise after April 22, besides, it is not only an oil ban but also oil-related investments like exploration, rigs, pipeline services and so on, services that useless Russia can not provide.

2. The fact that Garmany is still consuming Russian oil at the moment means they have not secured energy contracts with Qatar to eliminate Russian oil dependence in the long run? You sound clueless, delusional, and shortsighted.

3. The effects of these sanctions on Russia are not to create immediate effects, but a long-term strategy to cut off Russia completely and stop depending on a mad and mentally unstable man.

4. Germany or any other country buying Russian oil today is irrelevant, the real pain and sorrow for Russia is when all the alternatives are in place to finally dum Russia, Qatar is one of the alternatives and the infrastructure is a piece of cake for a country like Germany.

5. America is a major oil producer, they have more than enough oil in their own country, but they reduce oil production because of global warming, they can open the tap anytime they want.

6. Oil imports from Russia to the US is less than 3% of US oil demand, very insignificant.

Russia is in deep trouble and is already crumbling..

How, use Nuclear weapons? lol.

The question is, why is Ukraine winning and Putin retreating? Why is Russia unable to defeat a small country like Ukraine?

Ode Putin saw the death trap in Kyiv and quickly withdrew like a coward..

As we speak, Putin is retreating because he underestimated small Ukraine. 5 Russian generals were killed by Ukrain in less than 3 weeks, unheard of in any war..

Small Ukrain are using Russian troops and hardware for target practice,
