NATO caused this war by knowingly declaring in Romania their plan to add Ukraine.



Russia dont want America base.nextdoor.


We have American Base in Niger, how safe are we if America can be calling for military action because military displace civilian in Niger.


Those military base are for regime change.




Please, keep quite and stop displaying ignorance here. When did Nato say they want to add Ukraine to Nato?

Russia doesn't want America base next door? Lol. I hope you know there are countries like poland that share borders with Russia that are in Nato. Sweden and Finland already joined Nato. Don't kid yourself. There are already American/Nato bases close to Russia

The US is sadly just keen on prolonging this war. And my annoyance is that Ukrainian clown who's letting the West use his land for their experimental warfare with Russia.




If you understand what Ukraine is fighting for, you won't blame them..
The day Ukraine loses the war and the lands captured by Russia, it will be difficult for Ukraine to export its products through the black sea..
I also believe the west is fighting this war not only because of their investments in Ukraine that has been destroyed by Russia but also to show Russia that, the smaller countries in Europe under NATO can actually be protected...
Only United States alone has half of the world economy, where do you think that power came from.. Look at them sending Tinubu to invade Niger Republic because of their investments around.. So the war is complex in its nature..

China has borrowed Nigeria much funds today, do you think if one nation wants to destroy Nigeria, china would fold their hands, no way..

Why F-16s and not F-22s?

The US is planning to scrap its F-22 fleet anyway. Kuku send them to Ukraine.

Lol. Not possible. The US can't export the F-22 to any other country. It is a law.

Mind you, the scrapping of the F-22 fleet will still take years for it to happen.

The F-22 is still very much around for the next 5 years, if not more than.

Your freedom stops when you start to interfer with other peoples freedom is a cardinal rule.

I am not saying America is not a kettle calling pot black. My personal opinion is that I consider both super powers as bullies.

They all forget what eventually happened to the Roman Empire. They need to mend their ways before karma comes knocking.

Don’t have an idea about the stealth tech of F35? Do you know how small F35 appears on the radar? Do you know its engagement distance!

Hello! F35 is a the only airspace demon on Earth as of date.


It's funny the way u guys hype systems. The only reason it's called "stealth" is because its cross-section is reduces detection by radar. Keyword being "reduces". It doesn't eliminate and even if it does, it's not invisible to either radar, IR, or visual detection.
Besides, Russian ADS have been used to detect and track F35 since as far back as 2020. See https://tass.com/world/1193281

Also, stealth is an old tech, as far back as the 1980s and US isn't the only country with the tech. Russian SU57 can stand neck-to-neck with F35 but you know every country needs to hype their own tech to make more sales smiley The reason we hear more about the F35 is because the Us has the highest propaganda machinery in the world.

Also, there has been many documented crashes of the F35 over feeble issues but the Russian systems are built for ruggedity, with the AK47 being a proof

What are you on to? Russia has shown to the world how an expensive junk πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ military hardwares are.
We have been hearing games changers for like the 7th time. Like storm Shadow missile, like leopard II, like switch blades, like HIMARS and like everything sent to Ukraine, the F 16s or F 35, or F 22 or whatever are going to burn πŸ”₯, they'd burn with brightest and glowing flames.


Ignorance! You should know the US are sending their low caliber, short range weapons to Ukraine.

Even this F-16 took the US many months and alot of pleading from Ukriane before they agreed to send the F-16 to them. The funny thing is that the F-16 to be sent to ukriane will most likely be modified. Some of it's advanved avionics and other technology will have to be removed so that Russians doesn't get their hands on any technology if the jet is lost in battle.

Like in the case of CUBA right?

There was an agreement that NATO wont expand towards Russia, the agreement was breached by the US and her vassals, so anything goes now.

If you want to join my enemies as a neighbor of mine, I also have the right to treat my neighbor as an enemy.

The power to choose goes both ways, but be ready to tolerate the repercussions.

Is it the same ruggedity they are using to struggle in Ukraine? A country they shared land boarders with?

Same Ruggedity also made them lose more soldiers than 20 years of US war in Afghan.

You are the one hyping a shithole! Russia is the HQ of propaganda and that is not hidden.

F35 or 22’s has never been downed in combat. Does Russia have anything that comes close. We know counts in Ukraine 🀣🀣🀣

hmm.
Ukraine signed death warrant when they stick out their neck to be used as a weapon against the great Bear.
USA or any other NATO member is not courageous enough to face Russia and stupid Ukraine is taking the fall

Some of you should stop being foolish. Ukriane is an independent, sovereign country. it can enter into any alliance with any country it deems fit. It can join any military organization it deems fit.

Some year ago, when Obasanjo was president, the US planned to set up a military base in Nigeria, but the then government declined their request. They went to Niger and set up their military base there. Why didn't Nigeria attack Niger that they don't want US military base near their border?


Foolish people!

Listen, no one is afraid of America anymore, look around their military superiority is only in Hollywood movies.




Are you minding them...which other country can do what Russia had done and it's doing in Ukraine without the US invading.

Even with NATO, the US can't invade Russia.

I don't think you understand geopolitics and America job in Afghanistan. The talibans are Afghans and US cannot just roast them for been Militia. They have ideology that cannot be killed, a big assault wipe them out would be term genocide since it is not a conventional war.

The best US could do is to stop interfering in that country if their venture is not profitable anymore

But Us never wanted to involve in that war, they Asked the Clown to leave when Putin was about to invade.
Instead, he said What he needed were weapons and not a ride to exile.
Us were reluctant, Poland was the first to send them weapons.
US eventually involved so that it wouldn't be as if they abandoned their friends when they needed them most.
And again, Russia should have just took over Lugansk and Donetsk instead of pushing against the whole Ukraine.
