CoronaVirusPro: CIA sent a cable back home when they confronted the same Russia in Afghanistan that this people we meet here doesn't look anything like what we had expected that this guys here are more fitted to be called third world army than that of a super power but Langley and Pentagon didn't believe the report Russia stayed in that country for ten years and lost 15,000 men This war has helped Europe and the West to calibrate their estimation of Russia |

TenQ: Clearly Crimea voted out of Ukraine in 2014 . If you know you history well you understand that Crimea has a special regional status in Ukraine , they voted to join Ukraine from Russian then when Ukraine was parting ways with the then sovereign union ,it wasn't done by war , so why try to force them to be part of the Union if they don't want to? Russia already had the north stream two to supply Europe, Ukraine even desperate to keep those lines running cause of the income they make from Russia gas so what does Russia need that route for?? Port of Odessa and marupol yes , port of Odesa mainly to cut Ukraine from the blacksea , military and economic pressure points of view and marupol to link Crimea by road . All these could have be prevented with Ukraine been neutral. Why not NATO fighting Russia they prefer to use Ukraine as a battlefield for proxy war with Russia. NATO instigated this war and gave hope to the Ukranian clown that they will fight for him , unfortunately the Ukrainian President choose this Path of his country. Big boys never confronts themselves differently they use these smaller nations to fight their proxy wars . Not the first and won't be the last ,so it up to these countries to either be neutral or allow your country to be used as the battlefield for a proxy war. The next proxy war likely to be tiawan cause US wants to push China to react to start one over there it seems, it either the leaders there learn to maintain the status quo or let themselves be used for that proxy war. Ukraine the smaller country had the choice to the neutral yet picked a side in a conflict that wasn't for their interest. It not just a desire to join, it in their constitution that they will join NATO ,is that just a desire according to you There was no need of UKRAINE joining NATO yet they made the decision knowing the consequences of such actions , Who are you to choose which life matters , when the western puppets decided on killing their fellow Ukranians over ethnicity I didn't hear the western world crying nor people like you speaking out about the killings and shelling that has been ongoing for over 8years in the Donbass killings thousands over the ethnicity by the Ukranians Gov ,so they're facing the consequences. Russian already won. The control the Donbass region( now two independent countries) The will have marupol in few weeks to link Crimea. Ukraine will never be part of NATO and will be a neutral state ( Russia never opposed Ukraine joining EU it EU rejecting them for 8years now ) That was their Goal going there and they achieved it and with some add on. Many people fail to learn from history , study the Georgia situation , same this happen there , Georgia can never be part of NATO and there two separate region with their own gov there that's what happened here already. The Ukranians clown brought this upon his people over his ego and nothing else , his people dead and he lost the so called NATO ambition ,still begging the west for EU membership, lost the Donbass region ,no Minsk agreement now , and much more , there nothing Ukraine can compensate themselves with at this state , all this could have been prevented. |

newdawn2017: The have no business invading Russia. As much as Russia disapproves of Nato being too close to her borders, there's little Putin can do because Russia has no attraction except for brute force, not even protection. But the west/Nato/EU has a lot to offer Ukrain and the surrounding countries which is the attraction drawing them to these groups. Besides, these nations have been ruled true centuries by Moscow and they know what it feels like to be under Moscow's boots, so they do not want to experience such again and neither do they want to remain poor. |

To the MOD who barred me, and the person who reported me because of my opinions, all I have to say to you is that it hasn't changed my opinion, and you can bar me for all I care, but that does not mean I will change my thought on issues or discussions as they come up. I haven't insulted anyone, and neither have I cursed any, but if you feel my opinion is an insult to you, I care less. |

[quote author=judedwriter post=111817809] Against all odds, Russia may likely overpower Ukraine. What I fear the most that this conflict is slowly becoming a world War. [/quote Bro/sis, what I am seeing in this war is that, Putin/Russia is desperate for a victory, while the Ukrainians have vowed to break his will and plans. It is a warning to all authoritarian leaders and nations haboring the same thoughts against their neighbors that all will not be well if you go ahead with such actions and there are steep prices to pay. Even the west have a lesson to learn from this war. Because you are powerful, or assumed to be powerful does not give you the right to invade your neighbors' sovereignthy. You have the right to defend your space, but not invade another's if your borders are not crossed. |

Mooh247: This war is all A GAME, as far as NATO/EU are concerned! They are using Ukraine as A PAWN, to play CHESS in World Geo-Politics and it is very sad that the Comedian Zelensky thinks it is more important to speak and receive CLAPS in many Parliaments, while his Country is destroyed and his Citizens killed for nothing! History will not be kind to him, when the time comes. UK used to be a World Power (British Empire) in the past but it is now a shadow of itself. Led by an erratic Leader like Boris Johnson, it is STRUGGLING TO REMAIN RELEVANT in World Politics and it thinks FUELLING this War with Russia is a great opportunity to do so. Even "tiny" Latvia is flexing Muscle with Russia, while "hiding" under NATO Flag! America is propping-up its Military Industrial Complex (Go and examine the Shares of American Weapons Manufacturing Companies like Ratheon, Lockheed Martin, etc and see the astronomical rise in their Value, between March and April), selling Weapons, making Money from it, while Ukraine is being reduced to "Rouble"! Europeans who are doing "follow-follow" with America, are just recovering from the Covid Pandemc Economic Crisis, they are now plunging themselves into a Recession, just because they are afraid of Russia and want its military Power destroyed, using Ukraine as THE PAWN. I have stopped pitying Ukraine/Zelensky, since he did not ask the World Powers to "NEGOTIATE" how the War can end with Russia but is rather asking for Weapons and more Weapons, meanwhile what Ukraine is being given, are Weapons that will not overcome Russia, in the next One year, but Ukrainians are dying and Ukraine is being destroyed! If there is a definition and Award for FOOLISHNESS and IDIOTIC EGO, Zelensky will get it, even if he contests it with a mentally-challenged 3yr Old. 2 Likes 1 Share |

bakar007: To correct some facts here. Russia seized Crimea as a fallout when their ally was ousted by a popular revolt in 2014. But this was preceded by an action, when the president unilaterally withdrew from an agreement with the EU because of pressure from Russia, and in turn signed to take a loan from Russia. This did not Go well with the people of Ukrain who have always wanted to be a part of EU because of the benefits attached. If Putin in his right mind had allowed Ukrain to join EU, he could have negotiated with the helms men to avoid joining NATO which would serve as a win for both sides, but instead, he instigated some revolt from the Eastern front to distabilise Ukrain and make it difficult for them to define their national wealth path. Secondly, as a consequence of Putin's initial moves and with a strong desire to be free from Moscow's yoke, they decided that joining NATo would offer them not only economical benefits, but also security. To be honest with you, Russia has nothing to offer Ukraine. Look at the west, though they fight and argue, and disagree amongst themselves all the time, but they always close rank when there's a problem. Russia's desire is actually not because of the Donbas region, but this attack is just a first step to them achieving their sole aim of re-establishing the Soviet empire that stretches from east to Lisbon as revealed by one of Russia's to politician. This is not to say the west is actually a good party here, but on this one, they are actually standing behind the victim of a greedy man's ambition. |

House34: "Everyone" has their own OBJECTIVE, in this Russia/Ukraine War! Nobody gives a damn about Ukrainian Citizens or Ukraine itself, as long as each entity, from America, to EU., to Putin, to Zelensky, to UK, to Weapon manufacturers, to NGO's, to Politicians like France;s Macron .......... as long as each entity gets what it wants. It is sheer foolishness, to think that Russia is "weak", just because it has decided from the start, that its objective is not to destroy Ukraine completely, but to "neutralise" its ambition to build a Nuclear Weapon, prevent it from joining N ATO, prevent Ukraine from continuing to OPPRESS the people in the Dombas Region and to destroy all those NEO-Nazis on Ukrainian territory` Russia does not need "full-force" to achieve these Objectives but the EU/UK/NATO alliance pumping more weapons into Ukraine, is gradually changing that position for Russia. If they say you are weak just because you are being Liberal, you may need to show them that you are not weak ... and that is Ukraine going up in Smoke! 1 Like |

Mooh247: It's not a video game where you just select weapon and start using it. F-16, Rafale, Typhoons are all different systems to what Ukraine understand. It'd take months of practice for Ukraine to declare those jets combat ready. Same with the Patriot systems. it has FoF identification system, taking one from US to Ukraine will also target Ukraine jets and missiles as it would identify them as Foe not Friend.

Excuzeme: Ofcourse as with any warfare crisis, the defence industry always make a lot of money because of the high demand for weapons and the support systems. In international politics, the UK, although very insignificant geographically, they weight as much as Russia, if not more than. They have an economy that ranks amongst the top 5 in the world, but where is Russia? They once had an empire that stretched from one end of the world to another, so they have depth and width when it comes to influence, but what can you point out that Russia have ever had other than the small nations that have never crossed beyond the black sea which makes up their empire. To tell you what, one of Russia's problem is her size which makes it a huge trouble to govern, this also gives them the impression that because of this fact, they are a great nation. Probably this was before they fumbled in this ongoing warfare. The great Britain no be Russia mate. From the times records started bn kept, Russia have been a backbencher in the committee of empires |

Re: UK To Send 120 Armoured Vehicles To Ukraine As Boris Johnson Meets Zelensky by tommynico(m): 3:59pm On Apr 10, 2022 |
Excuzeme: Why are you changing goalposts. This war was started because Putin doesn't want Ukraine to be in the orbit of the western world because this will expose to the ordinary Russians on the street what their country could become if they can remove Putin from power. And besides, Ukraine do not have an intent to procuring or making a nuclear weapon. They once had it, but they gave them all up to Russia in exchange for protection, which the same Russia have violated. They could have easily become the third most powerful nuclear country in the world because they had a huge number of them. |

tommynico: You forgot that it was "ordinary Argentina", not even a Military Power, that almost finished "great" Britain, during the Faklands War! UK is just hiding under America, to remain relevant and that is why it just does "anything" the America wants! "Puppet" will be too-dignifying a word, to describe the UK right now. Russia can be described as a "young" Nation that is on the rise (after the break-up of USSR) and we can see the difference between Russia and the other break-away Nations from USSR, including Ukraine. All of them have become Vassal States of the E.U. but it is only Russia that has remained standing, progressing as a World Power and can even look the other World powers in the eye. It is the "FEAR" of the growth and emergence of Russia that is spurring all these American-backed conflicts between Europe, Baltic States and Russia. America cannot stand another World Power, you can see its "containment Policy" with China, as well but No Empire lasts forever, as they say. America will come and go, just like the others, it is just a mattter of time. 1 Like |
