India is playing with fire

MangekyoAlt:
Boris Johnson a month and a half ago, "Now we will cripple the economy of the Russian Federation"

Vladimir Putin "It is impossible to isolate a large country like Russia"

Na now I dey understand Wetin putin talk here sef When Putin said this, he wasn't talking aboit Russia's huge land masses. He was referring to Russia's natural resources since apparently Russia is the country with the most natural resources in the entire world

This means that in dark hours like this, Russia can just start doing bonanza with their unlimited natural resources and customers go line up full everywhere
China has been ramping up import of Russian Oil, gas, coal etc. India said they cannot let this bonanza by the Russians pass them by
Turkey said they will NOT sanction Russia as doing that may complicate the access they currently have to Russian cheap oil, gas and other resources. Japan immediately commented that Tearing off the oil contract they have with Russia is not on the table. South Korea, the so called USA ally too is busy ramping up Russian goods import. Hungary said they are ready to pay in Ruble or any currency russia wants, provided they continue getting that cheap, oil and gas russia showers her customers with OPEC said they cannot afford to lose Russian gas

Meanwhile, to celebrate this invasion, Russia needs to secure one thing in ukraine.
There's a huge, like extremely huge oil reserve in the shores of Crimea. Russia secured that one in 2014. Now, Ukraine's biggest natural resources reserve is located in Donbas, Eastern Ukraine. If Ukraine loses that, they've lost everything. I'm readong now that Russian troops are gathering for a major offensive to capture Donbas and other eastern states in ukraine. If putin can get Donbas, and that sweet untapped oil, Russia wins, Ukraine loses big time

Wow I used to think Dr Congo had the most natural resources in the entire world.

Useless sanctions from the West.



Russia can never go down.

Noise maker. Let's see if only India and china will give Russia the amount the make from the west. OP

This is not an unexpected news ,India has always tilted towards Russia since the war started,its all about interest now ,liase to grow your economy, use the money to build defense,nothing more

Zelensky remaims the most funny clown that I know of. Most of the so called western countries that are criticizing Russia and Sympathizing with Ukraine are gaining from Russia's invasion. Take for instance, USA had been looking for the perfect chance to force Germany to half NS2. Now they've achieved that. They've also, because of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, signed LNG deals with the EU. something that wouldnt have happened if they didn't push Ukraine to poke the bear. Others like China, India, Turkey, Japan, South Korea, Brazil etc are busy enjoying Russia's bonanza, hoping the war never ends as that might mean the end of the bonanza
Meanwhile, Russia is currently selling its oil for more than 5 times the amount pre-invasion, to the EU. meaning they're raking in billions everyday. It's no wonder Bloomberg sited experts saying Russia would collect more than $200 billion
Ukraine have lost more than $600 billion dollar in infrastrure and businesses

India sees the catch.
Unlike western goons in Nairaland

@bolded.

That's the summary of the whole event. Russia will come back stronger than before.

Another Puti as$lickers
let's see how India and China will generate 30% of wests imports from Russia. Noise maker.

This people are too clever!!!

54% of the Russia coal exports reportedly went to Asia, while about 31% went to Europe.

So Russians rely more on Asia for it survival & Europe is just add ons not a reliable partner.

Long live Russia, Long live Vladimir Putin.

Zelensky is a fool, Ukraine will never be the same after this war and the worst part is the west will not rebuild ukraine

Shameless monkeys.

If you know all this your still suffering from insecurity and bad leaders

EU fell right into US trap!
The Ukrainian crisis has nothing to do with Ukraine. It’s about Germany and, in particular, a pipeline that connects Germany to Russia called Nord Stream 2. Washington sees the pipeline as a threat to its primacy in Europe and has tried to sabotage the project at every turn. Even so, Nord Stream has pushed ahead and is now fully-operational and ready-to-go. Once German regulators provide the final certification, the gas deliveries will begin. German homeowners and businesses will have a reliable source of clean and inexpensive energy while Russia will see a significant boost to their gas revenues. It’s a win-win situation for both parties.

The US Foreign Policy establishment is not happy about these developments. They don’t want Germany to become more dependent on Russian gas because commerce builds trust and trust leads to the expansion of trade. As relations grow warmer, more trade barriers are lifted, regulations are eased, travel and tourism increase, and a new security architecture evolves. In a world where Germany and Russia are friends and trading partners, there is no need for US military bases, no need for expensive US-made weapons and missile systems, and no need for NATO. There’s also no need to transact energy deals in US Dollars or to stockpile US Treasuries to balance accounts. Transactions between business partners can be conducted in their own currencies which is bound to precipitate a sharp decline in the value of the dollar and a dramatic shift in economic power. This is why the Biden administration opposes Nord Stream. It’s not just a pipeline, it’s a window into the future; a future in which Europe and Asia are drawn closer together into a massive free trade zone that increases their mutual power and prosperity while leaving the US on the outside looking in. Warmer relations between Germany and Russia signal an end to the “unipolar” world order the US has overseen for the last 75 years. A German-Russo alliance threatens to hasten the decline of the Superpower that is presently inching closer to the abyss. This is why Washington is determined to do everything it can to sabotage Nord Stream and keep Germany within its orbit. It’s a matter of survival.

That’s where Ukraine comes into the picture. Ukraine is Washington’s ‘weapon of choice’ for torpedoing Nord Stream and putting a wedge between Germany and Russia. The strategy is taken from page one of the US Foreign Policy Handbook under the rubric: Divide and Rule. Washington needs to create the perception that Russia poses a security threat to Europe. That’s the goal. They need to show that Putin is a bloodthirsty aggressor with a hair-trigger temper who cannot be trusted. To that end, the media has been given the assignment of reiterating over and over again, “Russia is planning to invade Ukraine.” What’s left unsaid is that Russia has not invaded any country since the dissolution of the Soviet Union, and that the US has invaded or toppled regimes in more than 50 countries in the same period of time, and that the US maintains over 800 military bases in countries around the world. None of this is reported by the media, instead the focus is on “evil Putin” who has amassed an estimated 100,000 troops along the Ukrainian border threatening to plunge all of Europe into another bloody war.

All of the hysterical war propaganda is created with the intention of manufacturing a crisis that can be used to isolate, demonize and, ultimately, splinter Russia into smaller units. The real target, however, is not Russia, but Germany. Check out this excerpt from an article by Michael Hudson at The Unz Review:

“The only way left for U.S. diplomats to block European purchases is to goad Russia into a military response and then claim that avenging this response outweighs any purely national economic interest. As hawkish Under-Secretary of State for Political Affairs, Victoria Nuland, explained in a State Department press briefing on January 27: “If Russia invades Ukraine one way or another Nord Stream 2 will not move forward.” (“America’s Real Adversaries Are Its European and Other Allies”, The Unz Review)

There it is in black and white. The Biden team wants to “goad Russia into a military response” in order to sabotage NordStream. That implies there will be some kind of provocation designed to induce Putin to send his troops across the border to defend the ethnic Russians in the eastern part of the country. If Putin takes the bait, the response would be swift and harsh. The media will excoriate the action as a threat to all of Europe while leaders around the world will denounce Putin as the “new Hitler”. This is Washington’s strategy in a nutshell, and the whole production is being orchestrated with one goal in mind; to make it politically impossible for the German Chancellor Olaf Scholz to wave NordStream through the final approval process.

Zelensky remaims the most funny clown that I know of. Most of the so called western countries that are criticizing Russia and Sympathizing with Ukraine are gaining from Russia's invasion. Take for instance, USA had been looking for the perfect chance to force Germany to half NS2. Now they've achieved that. They've also, because of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, signed LNG deals with the EU. something that wouldnt have happened if they didn't push Ukraine to poke the bear. Others like China, India, Turkey, Japan, South Korea, Brazil etc are busy enjoying Russia's bonanza, hoping the war never ends as that might mean the end of the bonanza
Meanwhile, Russia is currently selling its oil for more than 5 times the amount pre-invasion, to the EU. meaning they're raking in billions everyday. It's no wonder Bloomberg sited experts saying Russia would collect more than $200 billion for just oil this year. So Russia is gaining massively too

At the end of the day, it is Ukraine and the EU that will bear the brunt. The EU will start buying oil for more than 3x the amount they used to from hence, irrespective of whether the war ends or not. Russia go show them shege well as they've termed them "unfriendly countries". If they decide that they've had enough of Russia's shakara, their only option would be USA who sells theirs for 6x times the russians sell theirs.

And as for Ukraine. All their infrastructures are being bombed to rubble. It is, reported that ujraine has lost more than $60billion worth of infrastructures so even if the west decides to rebuild after the war, the country would still go on to be a shadow of its former self.
Also, the biggest punch Russia can give to Ukraine is capturing Donbas which I'm sure they will. It's like Britain invading Nigeria, taking over South south and Lagos. Let's say Nigerian troops then manage to stop them from taking more. With just south south and Lagos, they've would've left Nigeria in a very pitiable condition. Donbas holds the biggest reserve of Ukraine, even after Crimea. If putin gets his hands on the whole of Donbas, he should pull back his troops and even tell zelensky to join NATO since NATO membership is the only thing the clown thinks and dreams about.

I thought you have typed something sensible not knowing its all waste of time.
You know nothing about rebuilding so keep quite. do you know how many billions donated to Ukraine so far in just this time of war, not to talk about in rebuilding.. so shush if you have nothing sensible to utter here. op

You're wise brotherly, respect to you.

The west and allies are inadvertently empowering China their adversary

u have noticed that nairaland keeps pushing pro Russia articles , anything to please Russia's not on the forum

Don't mind those Mods, lately they started approving any rubbish they see from users, including diff headline and diff body, Old news, Fake news etc. Too appalling and shameful to a site of this level

African nations should emulate India and increase trade with Russia. This is the time to support Russia because when India and Africa were the "Ukraine of the West" Russia stayed away.

Russia and Turkey attempted shipping weapons to African kings to defeat European colonialists but each time they shipped weapons to us, Britain and France hijacked it on the way and used it against us instead. Even Germany, after giving up their colonies in Africa, tried shipping weapons to African kings. But again, Britain and France hijacked them and used it to kill our ancestors.

It's such a pity most of us have been brainwashed and we don't know who are our friends and who are our enemies.

Its like u didnt read the post. %54 of russian coal goes to asia, only about %30 goes to the west. China and india make up one third of world population abt 3billion, and they are increasing imports. Just make peace with the fact that russia cannot be isolated.

Nigeria is a country with great potentials but bad leadership. There's plenty of coal in Enugu yet it's not been tapped. Ajaokuta iron ore dey there too. What's really wrong with us?

All these western apologists will pan all these your factual analysis as Russian propaganda....given the gang up by the west and its allies...RUSSIA IS STILL STANDING!

Many of us has been pro west as a result of being exposed to western media and their propaganda..for a very long time..and our local news tends to parrot the west talking points....but this war has opened the mind of many of us to the west double standard and how they hide their nefarious crimes behind behind western democracy. When western nations commits murder and genocides of highest proportion...its democracy inaction.....I feel so much irritated.

Japan have refused to pulled out of gas and oil deal with Russia as alternative are too expensive for Japanese citizens.
All Russia needed now is Odessa to connect Russia land to Moldova and connect all Russia speakers in one place making Ukraine landlocked

Putin have signed into law to transfer Russia infrastructures of Russia oil and gas from west to market in the east and far Asia.


Ukraine president said to the head of the European Commission,Ursula von der Leyen, that Ukraine needs $ 7 billion a month to pay salaries‼️ is closer and closer to BANKRUPTCY

Only if we have good thinking Africa leaders that can come together and also demand western countries go buy out products in our local currencies not Dollar or Euro.
We don’t even have our own financial system

By the time you escape abject penury in your country I will accept your article. Op. You know better than the west still the west are million miles ahead of you in every aspect of life.
