All the countries you named (excluding Cuba) receive millions of dollars in US foreign aid yearly. The leaders of those countries know that Russia can’t and won’t replace the US aid that they’ve become dependent on so you’re talking rubbish. You have more hope for Russia than Putin has.

I want us to remember that russia has the most deadly nuclear weapon that can destroy anything that comes its way...

What if Russia decided to also join NATO?
Just saying.

A weak Russia that can not defeat small Ukraine is a threat to the largest and the most powerful military alliance in the world?

Must be sarcasm..

Teenaira:


That is what I have being advocating for. It means there will be nobody to fight, as such there will be a greater chance for peace. The issue is just ego.

This statement reeks of foolishness

And day same most powerful military alliance cannot invade a weak Russia, despite it contravening international laws by invading anoda country.All dey could do is covertly send weapons.Lets assume it's anoda country invading a sovereign state,will NATO look on ND just send weapons without putting deir foot on d ground? Russia is nt fighting a war in Ukraine,if Russia want to destroy Ukraine ND take it,it won't take Dem a week,just apply d normal chemical ND biological weapons,ND d rest will b history.Or how did u tink d USA chase out d Taliban in Afghanistan, Killed Saddam Hussein in Libya,ND all Oda wars dey've been involved in,just by hand to hand combat?if Russia tried wat d USA did in Libya in Ukraine,d war won't last one week.pls go do ur research.

Aid from a heavily indebted country like US..?
A country that owes practically most of other nations& stills gives them aid just to boast her ego...with minimal expansionist exploitation of others, Russia&China have built huge real wealth enough for themselves without noise.

Check the debt profile, foreign reserves, internal reserves, gold reserves & energy reserves of Russia&USA and come back to tell me which is truly wealthy.

Wealth is when your real economy is not debt induced or theory.

AldrichAmes:


I don’t remember Russia setting a date for when Ukraine will fall - that was noise from western capitals who thought Russia would replicate American “shock and awe” and use its full military power. And this is the reason why they keep expecting Russia to mobilise, lol.

People need to understand that US and Russian military doctrines are different. US doctrine is mostly Nazi German doctrine with a sprinkle of old Soviet doctrine - with massive air power and heavy bombardment. Russian doctrine is mostly artillery and tank warfare deep in battle with attrition. Two different countries, two different mentalities and doctrines. Russia’s style does cost more lives but once they crush you - you’re crushed for generations.

The whole Sweden and Finland joining NATO is more symbolic than strategic since both have been indirectly part of NATO for over 2 decades. They just made it formality now. And they’re not different from Estonia and Lithuania that are NATO members. Ukraine is much more important due to Sea of Azov - losing that would cripple Russia.

Anyway, there’s a reason why Russians are the best chess players in the world. Russians are slow to react but when they react - it always come with a bigger blow. With the current CSTO meeting going on in Russia and the announcement of a dozen more countries joining the organisation - be on the lookout for Mexico, Cuba, Brazil, Venezuela and Argentina to join the next batch (Argentina is currently in Russia as an observer). Once they join CSTO - the US will cry and throw its toys out of the pram, lol.

NigerianSage:



Using nuclear weapons means you and your people won't survive so it's actually not fighting dirty, it's fighting foolish and suicidal.

Stop this talk about Nuclear weapons, Putin can not and will not use it.

Instead of admitting that Russian is weak especially the fact that the so called superpower can not defeat a small country next door, Putin fans don't want to confront that reality and Putin failure, now they shifted the goal post to nuclear weapons that he can not even touch.

Russia is a weak country that can not defeat a small country that didn't have any strong military or serious weapons before the war.

Face the truth.

Yet,ur most powerful USA is avoiding fighting Dem,all dey could do is covertly send weapons,at least USA ND NATO use to invade Oda countries,dat contravenes international laws,we saw how dey took out Saddam Hussein,muammur Gaddafi,ND co,why are dey nt taking d same route wen it comes to Russia,because dey are nt as ignorant as u,dey knw wat is on ground.Do u even knw why NATO was created? to combinely confront Russia's military might.If Russia is weak ND not powerful,why d need to confront it? think!

Excuse me but this is a big bucket of bullshit. First, China will never risk being sanctioned by the West over Russia. Russia can’t replace the Western money that China would lose and China knows this and acts accordingly.
Venezuela and Cuba? You must be blind to the current conditions of both those countries. They have nothing to offer in an alliance. Don’t forget that Venezuela is welcoming the US and its dollars with open arms.
Which non-Western European countries have refused to join NATO due to fearing Russia? Which ones are anti-NATO?
War has already broken out yet Russia still hasn’t shown the world anything impressive so what are you saying?

Finns have also concluded that the Russian military’s unexpectedly dismal performance and setbacks on the battlefield in Ukraine suggest it no longer poses the threat it once did, Toveri said.

“Russia is so weak now they couldn’t risk another humiliating defeat,” he said. If Russia were to attempt to send troops into Finland “in a couple of days they would be wiped out. The risk of humiliating defeat is high, and I don’t think they can take that.

Putin will never destroy America. He can’t even topple Ukraine.
Why do you tell lies? The US pulled out of Somalia after it became clear that they cared more about the country than Somalians did. Look at the condition of Somalia now war torn, undergoing famine, begging the US for help and realizing that the US has turned a deaf ear to them.

Lol, you will just be living on illusion, let Argentina or Cuba try any nonsense with USA and they will see. Russia wey never feed finish, na them want come save them. Lol. You don't know the power of money and technology. Stay there with your wishful thinking. Even Argentina or Cuba won't try that now, they will only wish.

Money speaks. Russia is too broke to be of any influence. Like too broke. Make money first, then technology, then you can start looking for power and troubles. You can't be broke and be looking for trouble, hunger go humble you.

Who told you China is bothered about your sanctions because she has enough to withstand them.
Weithet they fight or not they know the west will sanction them sooner or later.
The US&allies can't afford to sanction China too...the pain& consequences will be too brutal for them.
Ask Mr. Trump, he tried and the Chinese responded in kind and the US dropped the idea like hot plate.

China is just observing and waiting for when push will get to sholve so as to respond with tact.
As for south American countries...alot of them tactly support Russia& will join in if matter escalates.
Mexico, Venezuela, Argentina, Cuba, Brazil are watching keenly.
Many Arab nations too are watching keenly.
Hope you know Turkey can likely switch sides to support Russia.

In Asia, India, China, N/Korea, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos etc watching.
In Africa..others are watching...even south Africa& Egypt refused to join the sanctions.

Ethiopia,Algeria&Sudan are Putin's allies.


Russia keeps making western nations to guess her objectives in Ukraine while she goes ahead to achieve them silently.


In all Europe will bear the most consequences of this conflict.

NigerianSage:



Is there any reason for the West to invade Russia when in fact Russia could be easily destroyed pain free without confrontation or firing a single bullet?

War is not always about gra gra and boasting, the lesson is playing out as we speak on the battlefield, Russia can not defeat Ukraine, but you still want us to believe they can destroy Ukraine in a week, something that they can not even achieve after destroying towns and cities who to me is madness and frustration, not military strategy.

Ukraine is at the Russian border as we speak, Russian prized warship is at the bottom of the black sea, 12 generals are dead, 40 colonels are dead, countless military hardware including tanks, jets, helicopters, command and control structures are destroyed and so on so when is Russia going to destroy Ukraine?

Small country like Ukraine shouldn't be inflicting so much pain and damage on a supposedly called superpower.

So you want us to give Russia another week to achieve that objective?

Find a direct quote from Putin where he said it - not useless propaganda.

They also claimed he has cancer and is dying. They claimed there are reports he’ll mobilise on May 9 and declare war (it’s still a special military operation - not full scale war in Russian context) and he never did.

His speech for invasion is still there on YouTube with translation - the man never said that.
