Russia is the most sanctioned nation on earth.

With almost 30,000 sanctions on it. And yet still growing and having budget surpluses back to back to back.

What would a couple more sanctions do that 30,000 sanctions couldn't do? Lmaooo.

Russia doesn’t even use the US dollars anymore, to begin with. So what exactly will Trump be sanctioning??

Russia sells it's oil, gas, uranium, steel in Rubles & Gold.
No mind am, Russia wey don turn sanctions to food na them he dey tell that one. Make he give them the sanctions the Russians no go shake.

Oga, Russia have been selling oil and gas in Rubles since 2022 after Putin's order.

European countries have to open a Rubles account in Russia to be able to buy. Google it.

It's impossible to continue selling in Dollars after the sanctions.

You think they're stupid enough to pause gas sales because of sanctions? They have no choice but to sell in Rubles.
Russia needs usd to survive.They are currently low on USD as it is n it affects their business.They are trading oil n gas in euro n USD wit Europe

No Russia does not.

Oga. For the umpteenth time.

Russia does not sell anything in USD.

Putin made a Presidential decree in 2022 banning the use of dollars. Anyone caught doing so will go to prison and pay heavy fines.

Russia sells oil and gas in Rubles to China, India, Turkey and Central Asian countries.

Those countries then sell back to Europe.

Europe banned all trade with Russia. So did the US.

Even the remaining dollars still in Russia's possession, they sell it in exchange for gold.

Many nations are trading in local currencies as well.

ONLY WAY TO END THIS WAR IS TO MEET PUTIN YOUR FRIEND AND TELL HIM TO KEEP ALL THE TERRITORIES HE IS HOLDING, NO NATO FOR UKRAINE, ON THE GROUNDS THAT RUSSIA SIGNS AN AGREEMENT NEVER TO INVADE OR ATTACK THEM.



HOWEVER UKRAINE GETS TO JOIN EU ECONOMIC BLOCK.





THIS IS A VERY GOOD DEAL, ALL THOSE RUSSIAN PARTS OF UKRAINE WHERE THEY ARE MOSTLY RUSSIA, AND CLOSE TO RUSSIA BORDERS, SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO GO TO RUSSIA AND THE REST OF UKRAINE GOES TO EUROPE.

Trump is simply pushing Russia to the negotiation table

There's a deal on ground already.

USA can target those that Russia does business with. And that's going to hurt... even China's economy will suffer if America decides to play rough ball with them. Or is it South Africa that can withstand Trump? None of the BRICS nations can challenge the USA.
Your eyes go clear if Putin turns off the 'tap' supplying Europe with gas since you think the US is the only 'powerful' country that can hurt others.

USA is not an island.

Fight with Brazil, India, China , South Africa, EU, Mexico, Panama, Canada.

Internally, his tarrifs would lead to inflation, strife, public unrest and political gridlock.

This is a war USA can never win.

So, if you are part of the negotiation team, you think any agreement will stop Putin from starting another
war after 5 to 10 years of rebuilding the army?

The only guarantee of no invasion are either Trump go to war with Putin inside Ukraine, Ukraine acquires nukes,
or Ukraine join NATO or maybe have the US setup a military base.

No paper is worth any agreement that has Putin's signature.

Trump has two problems with Russia.
The Ukraine war and the BRICS and he can't avoid them.
