Naivasha - at the floor of the great rift valley - it's Kenya's floriculture, tourism and geothermal center. Fresh water lake Naivasha provide water for most of kenya flower farms while sunken inactive volcano serves as geothermal energy sources.

Apart from Belarus (under dictatorship) - all Soviet Union countries - want out 3rd world Russia - so they can join NATO.
Your fellow mad man Putin is down and out.
Some military general should put him out of his misery.
He miscalculated big time.
And someone should also yank the internet from you.
And keep you in mental asylum.

Just30:
if you're referring to Ghanaian students then the answer is never .. they need to participate in globe changing R & D.
It's not our fault that Kenyans can't afford such kind of education.
Start fixing your economy

When are Kenyans going to stop slaving themselves in Arabia

Now we are in agreement.
I also initially thought Ukraine was fu.cked
I imagine Russia forces would knock Kiev out in morning, Putin would have his lunch there and appoint a governor in the evening.
But I am suprised by how weak and disorganized Russia army really is.
It appears not have made much progress from USSR era.
Their underbelly is now exposed.

Obaaderemi2:
Isn't this exactly what I said?
You are worse than the Boer.

He underestimated Ukraine and the powers funding it. If it was just Ukraine vs Russia, Ukraine would have become dust by now.

When are Ghanian flocking to Russia.

Just30:
And since when was democracy reduced to how long a person govern?
All the Russians want to be part of Russia ... No one is queing in their millions to go to EU or US, Russians enjoy going on tours in Europe especially during the summer.

Yes 16k of a real economy and not a phantom debt and financial instrument economy. This is the reason why none of the US sanctions has had an effect on the Russian economy. They under estimated the size and capability of the Russian economy.

Ukraine was already trading and working with Europe but the Europeans did not want them or their goods hence Russia was their biggest trading partner because only the Russians wanted whatever they had to trade.
Russia even did not want to invest in their Agriculture sector just so they can have a Market for Ukrainian goods. But after 2014, Russia massively invested in it Agriculture sector and today they are almost self sufficient.

On average, the Russian economy/productivity is comparable to that of Germany. You don't seem to know anything about Russia but for the nonsense that the west feeds you

Yes, it so democratic Putin has ruled it for 30yrs with ironfist.
Few want to be part of Russia.
People are queing in million to go USA and EU.
Russia gdp is barely 12K usd....US now is almost 70K.
That mean average person in US - is almost 7 times better.
The same for most of Western Europe.
That prosperity is what makes Ghanians trek through the Sahara and swim across the mediterrian
Ukraine wants to similarly do so...trade and work with richer nations.
Russia wants to keep them in their poverty and dictatorship.
Now they are fighting for their right to join EU/NATO and succeeding.

Just30:
NATO will not be allowed to have Ukraine just like Russia prevented NATO from having Georgia...
The Russians drew the line there and as smart as the Georgians were, they accepted neutrality to preserve their beautiful country .
The comedian in Ukrainian foolishly got that beautiful country destroyed.

Russia is even more free a society than the US is. So I'm wondering what you mean by Russia is dictatorial when the US is more dictatorial than Russia.

Russia does not need people to be part of it, they are okay with what they have but will not tolerate anyone jeopardizing their security by allowing the US and it Monroe doctrine closer to it borders.

Russia was not the aggressor but the US

The Ghanian is slightly worse than you.
So why was Putin going to war if he couldn't defeat Ukraine.
Putin went for Kiev but failed.
That can only mean he underestimated Kiev.
And he has been running since then.
And soon NATO went in - and now Putin Russia is totally scre.wed.
That is all see now.

Obaaderemi2:
No wonder you always have a problem with the Ghanaian. If we are in agreement then what are you saying again? You made it sound like Russia could easily win the war by taking Kiev. That's the idea I'm laughing at.

You don't seem to know much about international affairs. For you to understand why Russia could never defeat Ukraine easily you need to go far back in time or at least to 2014 when Russia annexed Crimea.

Ukraine became independent on 1991 but bitter Russian didnt get the memo.
Now they are luckly - they are motivated and have somone picking their war taps.
Russia have no option except accept reality that NATO will now encircle Russia.
NATO has not sought to expand.
It countries that want to be part of it as they see Putin aggression coming their way.

The alure of US and Western Europe democracy with high standard of living compared to Russia dictatorship & 3rd world QOL.

Russia cannot win until it reform and make people want to be part of it because it's progressive.

Just30:
Russia was okay with Ukraine deciding to join EU but will not allow it into NATO and that is what this war is about.

Russia is not even interested in taking Ukrainian lands, they are saying since Ukraine can't live harmoniously with ethnic Russians in the East who control Ukraine entire economy, they should give them semi autonomy so those guys can live on their own to some extent.

Zelensky himself run on the ticket of ending the war and giving eastern Ukraine some form of autonomy then azoz and NATO threaten to take him out If he does it.

This war did not start today, it is a war that has been brewing from 1994 when the Americans set out to make Ukraine a torn in the flesh of Russia. But currently it has rather become a torn in the flesh of Europe.

Let the credit rating know this information mad cow. They should make kenya junk and Ghana B. Now Ghana is D.

Just30:


Ghana debt has reduced further to just 38 billion dollars and Ghana payment for next year is only 3.5 billion dollars.

Kenya debt is 80 billion dollars and you need 12 billion next year to pay and another 12 billion dollars to finance the hole in your budget.
At this point no one is willing to have Kenya money... Even your T-bills are under subscribed

Dont dream of ever educating me on any subject.

Just30:
no you didn't
I had to educate you that no one cares but the Russians.

So far Russia hasn't lost anything except for the 20,000 soldiers they've collectively lost with Lugansk and Donhesk people republic as well additional 1000- 2000 from Wagner (KIA)

NATO are funding it expecting a pay back from Ukraine.... It's a money hole, debt that Ukraine will never be able to pay back and it's good for the Americans because politicians are getting their cut

Russia went to war because Ukraine wanted to Join EU and eventually NATO.
They think Ukraine is their colony.

This is the genesis of Ukraine-Russia war since 2003/4 Orange revolution.

Ukrainians want to align more with Western Europe for the obvious economic benefits like other former USSR countries
But Russia see that as sacrilegious.

Ukraine win this war because they are motivated enough to fight for their better future as independent country.

Just30:
That is what war is but the magnitude ain't the same because the Russians are preserving the life of it infantry.

They already had independence from Russia so what are they fighting for?
They already freely align with EU and Russia was okay with it.

Putin never underestimate anyone ... He only thinks it's not necessary to destroy Ukraine and has been the hand holding the Russians back especially their hardliners.

But since the Americans are not coming to their senses, he can't hold on any longer

I have said this so many times.
IMF does NOT give out much money to bail out anybody.
It simply a token.
They give out something more worthy than money.
They give out technical support which if you listen to investors and everyone will think you're fixing the mess.

Ghana if luckly will get maybe a billion dollars - and they will have to look for 50B dollars they need to repay debt.

GeneralDae:
Hmm, despite the 5 Billion dollars given to Egypt by the IMF, they still need another 15 Billion dollars to truly avoid default.

slowpoke - I used that as sacrasm.
NATO doesnt care about Ukriane-Russia war except it nice civil war like Afgan-USSR war.
The biggest loser is Russia.
The 2nd loser is Ukraine.

The winner is NATO. NATO are excited and will fund this as long as Ukrainians are ready to fight.

Ukraine are motivated because this a fight for their independence from their russian former friends.

And NATO are willing to fund that resistance war.

Just30:


They like Ukrainians?
No one like Slavic people in Europe

They have all kinds of derogatory terms for them

The Germans care less about Ukraine. Lunatic that knows nothing about Ukraine is here talking about it.

You really don't know where NATO trillions end up... It's mostly in the pocket of people... Else NATO won't be finding it difficult to supply Ukraine with weapons. A country the they led to war.

Did I hear you say dismantling Russia? How are they doing that?
All of Europe has not been able to dismantle Russia and you think Ukraine is?

Something much bigger is wrong up there

Both sides have lost people and will continue to lose.
Ukrainian think it's worth fighting for their independence from Russia.
So they can freely align to whoever they like - US or Eu or even Ghana.
Russia think Ukraine should ask them who to make or not make friends.
And if not - they will take Russian speaking areas.

Ukraine so far is doing great - and it will be rebuilt in a record time - because they will get funded seriously
For NATO - this big statement to other Russia vasal state to break free.

Russia has secured black sea for what - when they cannot trade with western hemisphere - and have to only China and Iran.

Putin understimated the resolve of Ukranain to break free from Russia.

Just30:
except I'm not the one spewing them

It's actual people with direct count . In Russia's case, the figures are coming from the opposition to the war who are also anti Kremlin.

For Ukraine, the figures are coming directly from European intelligence.

How has it paid off for Ukraine? They are the ones paying the human cost, they're also being saddled with war debt and have also lost almost half their population. They've lost all their industries.
So what will Ukraine gain to call it a pay off?

How ahs it given Ukraine independence when all their decision making is dictated from the US with no way for them to object ? How is that independence? Atleast before the war, they had real independence to make their own decisions.

Well Ukraine has lost the war ... The only winners in this war are the Americans and the Russians.
Russia doubled it export earnings and safeguard it black sea installation forever, correcting the mistake of whoever gifted Crimea to Ukraine. Russia has also effectively reduce it exposure to Europe.

Russia is going to keep 30% to 40% of Ukraine which is what they where interested in in the first place. Everything east of the dnieper river.

You dont make any sense.
They are calling for peace because they like Ukrainians so much.
No slowpoke. NATO have annually spend trillion on defence budget against Russia mostly.
And now Ukraine is doing a great job...dismantling Russia for such a serious bargain.
Russia are right to be suspicious of any NATO peace talks.
It's all BS - because it doesnt serve their interest at all.

NATO want this war to go on for even 20yrs and keep Russia bogged down.
This another Afgan war that eventually killed USSR.
Ukraine are the muhajideen working with CIA to grind rusted Russia weapons.

Any energy hiccups of 2022 have been largely sorted - and economies will starting humming again.

The disruption has caused more pain in Ghana than it has in Germany. Germany will grow it's economy by 2.8%

It definitely bankrupted Ghana - but Germany is still doing great.

Just30:
They're begging for peace because they can see what Russia is doing to Ukraine and the forces the Russians have built up and are scared.

That is why Macron and Scholz have all called Putin to ask him to come to the negotiation table but the Russians do not trust them anymore. The Russian feel they're asking for these relief to use it to restock Ukraine for another year of war .

As for Biden, he's a confused man right now because the sane ones in his cabinet are calling him to go and negotiate to save Ukrainian lives but the MIC neocons have a strong grip on him and are whispering into his ears that he can win a limited nuclear war with Russia
Those idiots don't know that there's nothing like a limited nuclear war.


All of Europe industries are currently not producing because their BS govt need to save energy for the winter... From Germany to Greece to France to Belgium... Italy and Spain have it better a bit

Ghana is in pain.

Kenya is doing great - 7.5% growth rate last year; and this year looks like another 7%; in a decade we will 200-300B dollar economy.

Ghana is in for decade of pain.

And I will be here to remind you until you get it.

I will always be here to laugh at your country because you're bunch of morons who cannot manage their monies

Just30:
you're in pains

Lunatic

Nobody trust figures you spew from your a.hole mad cow.

Ukraine waging the Russia eyes has paid off.

They had option of remaining backward with 3rd world Russian or joining EU & NATO - and securing their people economic independences.

This war has given Ukraine the independence to act as sovereign state. Not a client state of Russia.

If they had lost this war - and Kiev had fallen back to Moscow - yes this would be terrible miscalculation. That was my initial view.

But they are winning the war - outcome - Russia at best take few slices on the border - Ukraine joins EU and NATO - and their people benefit from jobs and higher standard of living like Polish and other eastern Europeans have.

Just30:
only on TikTok

Proven fighters with 550,000 casualties is not much to write home about.
It was always a foolish idea for Ukraine to go to war with Russia and it will remain a foolish idea because Ukraine only got wrecked for absolutely nothing and it doesn't had a future because the EU and US will just wash their hands and move on to their next victim possibly Poland but it seem like the poles are smart.
They say everything they want to say in public but goes behind the curtains to negotiate.

Why would German or France or USA beg for peace mad cow.
What are they losing?
Nothing much. Not their men. Not their land.
Energy problems are largely sorted out.
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-63709352
All of them are sending more and more weapons.

Best way to call for peace - if US or EU wants - stop funding Ukraine. Without western aid or finance - Ukraine will beg for peace.

What leverage does Russia still have left

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-63709352

When Vladimir Putin switched off the gas taps to Europe, Germany more than most feared a winter of blackouts. Ministers scrambled to secure alternative supplies, painfully aware that a heavy dependence on Russian gas had left this industrial nation woefully exposed.

But fast forward a few months and, as lights sparkle in the Christmas markets, there is a sense of tentative optimism in the Glühwein spiced air. Germany's hastily assembled strategy to manage without Russian gas appears - for now - to be working.

"Energy security for this winter is guaranteed," the Chancellor Olaf Scholz told MPs in the German parliament on Wednesday morning.

Just30:
lunacy at it best

No wonder the Germans, French and Americans are now begging for a negotiated settlement because Ukraine is winning

Your madness is clinical.

Just30:
Ghana hasn't because Ghana has been paying all of it and gone ahead to exchange their bonds for new ones.


Which external debt has Ghana defaulted on and please don't mention Eurobond because it is just a bond market.

Which Eurobond has it failed to pay like Kenya has?

Kenya has defaulted on Chinese debt and got a fine.
Kenya default on two commercial loans from French banks for dams building.
Kenya basically failed to make payment when it was due

Pure nutcase
NATO - or US - have given very very little to Ukraine.
Ukraine have proven themselves very efficient and brave fighters.
That has made the huge difference in this battle.

Russian rusted military hardware should be displayed in some museums.
They run to China for hardware - nothing.
They are begging Iran and Turkey for drones

Just30:
NATO is not happy that Russia has depleted all their stockpile even without a direct confrontation with Russia.

This depletion of NATO stockpile is the reason why Ukraine is currently suffering Badly.

The EU will not even touch Ukraine with a 10 feet pole with it current debt situation and no productive capacity because Ukraine will only be a burden on them.

When this war is over, no one will want Ukraine because it will be a wasteland for everyone to take the pieces that belong to them.
The Romanians will take Liviv back and the poles will take all the western regions because it belongs to them.

20 years of continuous war will not be enough to drain 30% of Russian stockpile let alone just this limited war.

That is how prepared the Russians are for a war with all of Europe.. The US and all of NATO ain't prepare for such a scenario.
Finland is the only country close to prepare for such a scenario

Most are unable to see facts for what they are because of their "problem" with western nations.

If Russia was real super-power - their governor would be running KIEV now.

And Ukraine will be back being client state of Russia empire.

For now Russia army is not doing any better than rebels of Donbash were doing since 2014.

okeysoninv:
with all these yet Ukraine has taken 60% of their land back. Russia propagandist won't kill somebody with laughter. Ukraine is going down yet svatove is about to fall into the hand of Ukraine. hahahahaha good propaganda right there

The madness.
Ukraine will disappear - how now
It will empty out people.
Nope. Ukraine will be admitted to NATO and EU - and will cut itself permanently from being vassal state of Russia.
And that is what this war is all about.
Ukraine to continue as Russia biatch or Ukraine to declare independence from Russia - and pursue better deal from EU.

It looked like a bad idea initially - and I thought the comedian was nut to provoke Russia - but I overestimated Russia.

Now Ukraine look really good - they are getting billions of money in financial aid - and have found a job to do - wear down the Russians.

As long as they are fighting Russian - they are assured of money, weapons, etc.

It's Russia to eventually sue for peace and retreat to the north pole.

Just30:
aid that will only come in a year or two time which Ukraine might not even be in existent by then.
Before the war, the country had 45 million people, a debt ridden economy but with a future and today they have only 25 million with no hope because it productive economy is in the East.
With electricity currently not available and the current blizzards of winter, they might only be left with 5 million people and a wasteland by end of winter.

If it had no strategic advantage, the Ukrainians won't move all it troops to Bakhmut.

Wagner fighting force is not even up to 50,000

Ghana has defaulted on all it's domestic and external debt - save for multilateral debt - for a month now.
Kenya has not defaulted.

Bankruptcy is like diarhoea - you cannot hide it.

Just30:
you're wasting words

A country flush with cash can't be bankrupt dumb idiot

I can mention every single debt that Kenya has defaulted on ... You can't do same because Ghana has paid all it due debt.

Russia has never been under threat from Ukraine slowpoke.
Russia biggest threat is NATO - not Ukraine.
And so far it's got itself in almost civil war with Ukraine - funded by NATO.
NATO couldnt be any happier.

Ukraine is depleting Russian fighting capacity as Russian also doe the same - and who is happiest - NATO.

Meanwhile NATO is expanding formally into Finland & Sweden - and practically apart from Belarus - Russia will soon be sorrounded by NATO.

Ukraine definitely joining EU and NATO - now that they've called Russia bluff.

Just30:
The fact is , it was the dumb pentagon who has only one Russian expert that was saying looking at the force of the Russians, they'll be in kiev in 3 days.

The Russians had no plans like that because they weren't even interested in taking Kiev or even all of it.

So far the Russians have achieve most of their goals and turned Ukraine into a beggar for military assistant.
Today all of Ukraine fighting force is nonexistent except for volunteers from across the borders.

War is not about holding worthless ground but about wiping out your opponent fighting capacity which the Russians have done.
Now Ukraine is only throwing it remaining infantry into a meat grinder


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2FWM0waMDA8

Russia mercenaries - Wagner group- are wasting artillery trying to prove themselves.
They are wasting prisoners' life - of the 50K wagner group - 40,000 are prisoners.
There is no progress in Bakhmut and it has no strategic advantage.
Heck half of Donbas now is under Ukraine.

Russia has lost this war long time ago.

What is going to happen likely the civil war in border btw Ukraine and Russia will continue - and Russia is biggest loser.

Ukraine is assured of military and other aids to continue this proxy fight.

Just30:

You've forgotten that winter war mostly favors the attacker

50,000 artillery rounds per does not look like struggle for the Russians... Who ever is on the receiving end of that is the one struggling

You're wasting bandwith with that useless image.
Your country hired 5 top consulting companies - Lazard and others.
They also had IMF technical team.
They looked at everything including those funds GENIUS
And all came to same conclusion - Ghana is bankrupt.
And latest recovery is 2037.

IMF,Lazard, GSA, Hogan Lovells and all the sovereign credit ratings = GHANA IS BANKRUPT.

That is just how thick-headed your treasury really is - because it has taken so much effort to convince it - it's bankrupt.

Just30:
bunch of nonsense

This should be enough to silence you except you're just a noise maker.

Kenya will need 40 to 50 years to get out of it current bankruptcy which has led to 4 commerical loan default and a bilateral loan default

And the Ukrainans aren?
They are fighting Ukraine in their land.
They are not fighting Germans or French in their land.
The Ukraine are fish under water - and it' Russia now struggling.

Just30:
The Russians are masters of winter warfare.. they invented it.
Ask the Germans how the Russians moved from Stalingrad during winter, facing the bulk of the German army and got to Berlin before the Americans.
Or you can ask the French during the Napoleonic era, how the Russians moved from Moscow during winter and almost got to Paris before forcing the French into a peace accord.

Russia need mercenaries for proxy wars


Some education for you

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4WIdDStqeE

Utter Nonsense.
They had strategy to take KIEV and failed.
In fact, they wanted to take it within 72 hours.
And that war ended the day they gave up on KIEV - and from there it been back pedalling.
Now they are in the fridges - back to areas that been a war zones from 2014.
Now we have civil war in the same Donbash/Luhansy border regions with Russia.



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EqUl0sGYiG4

Just30:
Russia had no interest in taking Kiev but they'll make sure they consistently degrade Ukraine military capability until Ukraine become a country with no military.

The Russians have already won the war and the economic war... The US doesn't seem to have disrupted Russia influence in the various countries they sort to.

Ukraine today has no hope for a future ... They should have prevented it like they wanted to instead of being *pussies and allowing themselves to be blackmailed by the US and UK.

All the billions of dollars in aid only ended US politicians pocket and the MIC pocket as kick backs ... The little the received ended up in Ukrainian generals pocket and kept breaking down because US weapons are not meant for perpetual war.

The war is not a stalemate kiddo ....

Let me tell you .. Ukraine is not arming up because the US can't produce enough to stockpile them unless they strip some other country of the capacity.

The Russians on the other hand have a 500,000 strong army well equip and just sitting across the border waiting for Surivikin to be done with the 3rd phase of grinding Ukraine.

Today Ukraine has no working artillery piece or very few of it, the Turkish drone ain't coming and the American switchblade drones have failed to make an impact.
The Brits BM mackmaster personnel carriers are useles, the howitzers are breaking down and the Himars are being intercepted and their launchers immediately wiped out.

Ukraine shouldn't have engaged in this proxy war and focused on resolving their debt issue which Russia was willing to help with and effectively build their country. Now everything is in ruin

This video by Prof Clarke should be compulsory watch for low-IQed morons here who dont understand just how Russia long lost this war


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EqUl0sGYiG4

Ghana is bankrupt the day it announced it cannot pay debt.
If it had some money stashed somewhere - for a rainy day - they would have cashed it -
and use it to pay debt - as they wait out the ukraine storm.
I bet they've already withdrew from those funds and have empitied forex.
It ranked JUNK by all credit ratings.
And prepare for your banks, investment funds, pension, insurance to go under.
And then more mess that will finally convince you - that Ghana is bankrupt.

Pray for debt restructuring deal to be striken otherwise IMF wont be helping you soon.
It maybe at least 2-3yrs using Zambia as model to nail a debt restructuring deal.

Then IMF can start giving you money & fixing things. Until then chaos.

Just30:
Most times you're insane

How are you going to solve Kenya bankrupt status? Ghana is not there with Kenya

How can they move with rusted infantry - in muddy and snowing Ukraine.
There is no serious war going on now until end of winter.
Russia have deployed mercenaries as their army are depleted.
The wagner group are just trying to prove themselves using human wave of poor mercenaries and prisoners.

ariesbull:
in Bakhmut the Russians called the operation Meat Grinder...and that is what it is doing ..Grinding Ukraine Army

The world that matters are the rich nation.
EU and US alone like half the world GDP.,,each almost 25% of world GDP.
You can get Ghana or Kenya vote - and it wont add or substract anything.
Russia has been sanctioned heavily - by many countries that matter.
And more sanctions are going their way.
And more ominous for them - Europe is decoupling completely from Russia - building alternative energy supplies - meaning in future they can keep it isolated for long.
Russia will now depend on China completely economically.

ariesbull:
Russia isn't isolated...in the last UN Vote,more than half of the world is in Supprt of Russia

Russia lost this war the day they backoff from taking Kiev.
They've been on the retreat since then.
Ukraine was hopeless as the war started but they have rallied western support
And when given a chance with military donation - they've proven themselves capable of turning the tables
And now the military aid is flowing from rich western nations - US this week 40b, Netherland 2B, name it they are throwing money & weapons.
What does Russia have as allies in the war - Iran, Turkey and fair weather chinese & indians

The war now is on stalemate due winter - it's muddy fight - and there is no big war going on.

Ukraine is arming up for springs.

Just30:
Okay.. let see them win
They've not been winning since the war begun... What makes you think they will win now that they've lost a lot of their combat ready force and fast depleting their reserves?

They have just 120,000 men left and that is why Europe and the US is calling for a political settlement that will preserve Ukraine instead of watching the Russians and Belarusians launch their counter offensive that will annihilate them with a strong army of 500,000 men in motorized brigades

Ukraine did not take Kherson back, the Russians gave it to them as a trap that suck the Ukrainians into a couldron that grinded 20,000 Ukrainian men.
You should read about how Ukraine lost it entire foreign train troops in their southern attack.

The Russians are doing the same thing in Bakhmut... Attracting more Ukrainian soldiers into it and meat grind them causing Ukraine to loose 70% of a 40,000 strong defense force in Bakhmut and forcing them to withdraw the rest.

Now 20,000 more new troops of Poles, Romanian, Georgian, Americans and Brits have gone to reenforce Bakhmut just when the Russians have enter the Eastern side of the city only walking on dead Ukrainian soldiers after artillery bombardment from far away
