I said world's advanced microchips.
Russia and China have advanced micro chip too

And am telling you the only difference in it with Taiwan, own is Taiwan,
Can build smaller ones in sizes which we call mini micro chip

And this mini micro chip has no value in military equipment because military devices the bigger it is the better quality it has.

All the while Russia was hyping their s500, the USA was actually looking at them and enjoying playing the second fiddle with their patriot, meanwhile it can actually be configured to take out the purported almighty Russian hypersonic boom..
this shows you did not make research before talking

S500 is used to destroy satalite which no nation on earth has that ability to do apart from mother Russia

Now s500 is not used in this war because Ukraine don't have satalite

S-500 is different from non hyperbolic hypersonic weapons

And USA military men can tell you they don't have it yet. The non hyperbolic hypersonic weapons.

you really mean you don't know this answer my goodness.

Well first donbas wanted to be free Ukraine said no and started killing them so go research on that part.
Let's assume Donbas want to be free from Ukraine, how Does it concern Russia?


Like Biafra and Oduduwa Republics want to be free, then France came to Bomb Nigeria?

Russia was arming them to fight Ukraine right?
Is this the legal way of seeking for autonomy?

You have to make proper example

It like France came to Nigeria and lived here and born mixed race of France and Nigeria children together and they speak only French

and later wanted to have there own nation and Nigeria refuse that how you would have put it to understand it

And Nigeria starts to kill them and France comes to save them

Hope you now understand it

Like South Africa white are mainly UK descendant and South Africa starts to kill them will UK sit and clap

Those in donbas are descendant of Russia population that mixed with Ukraine on that four regions Russia took newly.

What geography is required to know Finland also shares land boarders with Russia?

Oh! So Ukraine is more of a threat and Finland is not, when both share boarders with Russia!

So much of double standards! Just say the obvious reason! Russia cannot invade Finland because it was smart enough to quickly join NATO.

Putin has lost on all fronts! Sweden will join and Russia will be surrounded by Nuclear warheads. So what’s the meaning of occupying one country when you already lost two other countries

For instance, the geography of the Finland and Sweden area makes it impossible to attack Russia from there.
All throughout history, to attack and invade Russia, you have to use the Ukrainian lowlands and that is why Russia will never allow Ukraine or Georgia to join NATO.

First of all

The Patriot did not make any missile interceptions baring a few drones.

Secondly, it lasted for only 2 weeks on the battlefield and got taken out.

You speak like one completely naive in the knowledge of international politics.

1. All autonomous regions in what was the old Ukraine province of Soviet Union signed to be part of Ukraine and not Russia (including Donbas, Cremia and Kherson regions)
2. All was well between Russia and Ukraine until the Pro-russian President Lukashenko was booted out of office in 2014
3. Putin used the opportunity to annex Cremia AND armed the Donbas region to start a fight to break away.
4. The normal course of action was to write the United Nations if they want to be autonomous from Ukraine so that it would be deliberated upon.
5. In 2021 Russia decided to annex the whole of the corridor from Donbas to Cremia thereby completely cutting Ukraine off from the sea.

1. Tell me, why did Russia annex Cremia as it belongs to Ukraine!
2. What was Putins objectives?
3. Did the plan work?

Why tell lies if you are winning? Telling about repairs is embarrassing because it’s a less humiliating way of admitting it was hit.

Finland is already a NATO matter, NATO is not attacking thru Finland, They will be stationing military hardwares in Finland.

Seems you don’t know what it means to be a NATO member? Where does terrain come into it?

Seem you have a reading and understanding problem.
Russia has always considered Finland and Sweden as NATO members and built counter measures for that.
Russia has no problem with that because NATO will never be able to attack and invade Russia from there.

The only possible place Russia can be invaded from by NATO is UKRAINE or Georgia... Napoleon passed there and so did the Germans as well as the Mongolians and Turks. Now you understand why Russia will never allow those two countries to join NATO

If NATO want any chance of a success in a war with Russia, it needs Ukraine because the path from the Dnieper river towards Moscow is a flat terrain that is difficult to defend which makes invasion easy.

Russia is a big country today because it needed natural defenses after being the single most invaded country on earth and the Great European plain is Russia's weakness today.

You can thank me for the education later

I am still amused that you had to write a novel on a baseless point.

So if NATO deploys nuclear missiles to the boarders of Finland, it won’t fire? Cos I don’t know what point you trying to prove here.

Moreover, Finland is just 1000km to Moscow, and shouldn’t that be a threat to Russia?

Putin lost out chasing shadows!

As if you don't know that Russia will equally annihilate all of Europe and the US when a nuclear weapon is used on it territory.

Why, are you 2years old to not know what an invasion is?

First of all, Finns will never allow nuclear weapons on their territory. Maybe Sweden will because they are not as smart .

No, Finland is less of a defense challenge for Russia than Ukraine and Georgia.
The Russians developed the Bastion defense system to defend against threats that will emanate from Finland. Hence Finland was long neutralize.

They won’t, like they don’t see what’s happening in Ukraine. It the point is that, if they do, their is nothing Russia can do. They are already surrounded by nuclear war heads and Finland will only be a plus.

A military base advantage will also play a big part. Faster deployment to Russia.

You making sound like Finland has no advantage when it’s the closest to Moscow.

So what’s the gain of Putin? Capturing a part of Ukraine, while Finland and Sweden join NATO! Did the threat to Russia increase or decrease?

Stop shifting goal post, Putin shot himself in the leg.

Yes they won't, They've learnt their lessons from years of antagonizing the Russians and have since put an importance on having good relations with Russia.

Finns are more concern about not being in the crosshairs of Russia own nasty nuclear weapons hence have vowed to never allow nukes on it territory.

The US itself is surrounded by Russia's own nuclear weapons and is more concern is not escalating on that front because it can get pretty nasty.

It's amazing how your argument keep getting childish and off topic 🤣😂

A military base in Finland will just be a dumb idea because Russia can't be invaded from Finland, the geography makes it too hard to move troops because no heavy equipment can pass there.
This makes me know that you're childish and know nothing.

The US saw Finland before choosing Ukraine, to foment trouble from knowing well it's the only possible way.

The Fins know they have no advantage over Russia and that is why they since choosed a peaceful path with Russia for their success.

The gain for Putin is the creation of a multipolar world, protecting Russians in the Donbass and defending Russia under belly. Hence Russia holds the upper hand over NATO.

So far, Putin has come out the winner as he has won on the economic front and on the battlefield.
By the time this is done, the US will pack and go while cutting it losses like in Afghanistan and Europe will be saddled with the cost.

Most of them are just kids who have no understanding of anything.

They don't even know the history of any of these countries and just pass useless comments.

The US did several war games trying to attack Russia from Finland and Sweden and never came out victorious in any of them because the geography and Russia defenses makes it impossible even if they succeed in bombing the Russian Submarine base nearby.

He thinks Napoleon was stupid to choose to invade Russia from Ukraine or Hitler was stupid to do same (and these are some of the most successful generals in recent history)
