Foreign Affairs › Re: US Should Pay France For Loss Of Russian Gas – Le Pen by Scholes007(m): 7:58pm On Apr 17, 2022
olugabbie:
Of course they are. The US sanctioned some German and Russian companies working on the Nord Stream II under Trump. They wanted to kill the project. This happened when there was no war.

The US has being pressuring the West to abandon Russian oil & gas ⛽ for years.

Marine Le Pen is a nationalist. She believes France is a super power on it's own. She is one of the people that are wary of the dependent of the EU/NATO on the US. She also believe that there can be no peace in Europe without winning Russia over to the Western side. She thinks China os a major threat to the West and to counter China. The West needs Russia and India.

She said she will pull France out of NATO & urge other Western countries to develop strong ties with Russia for peace to reign in Europe.

You can read up on her manifesto.
US and other NATO members' concern on Nord Stream II Project especially with respect to the security and economic garantee of the west was in jeopardy. I understand some of these nationalist has some myopic view on issues like these. Le pen like Trump has short term view on important security issues. How will u invite a nation that clearly perceive you as hegemonic and has tailored it's philosophy toward undermining ur effort into ur security structure.
NATO has continued joint effort with Russia in position of strength and mutual respect,which has been the main reason for the existing peace in Europe. There is no logical reason undermining such structure because of individual interest.

I don't think US is pressuring anyone. Le pen should focus on her election.

When is Africa going to be held accountable for what they did to themselves? Rwanda genocide, starving of SE children, the Fulani marauders across Nigerian, the ongoing BH onslaught on people of the North, the millions that was sold into slavery by their kinsmen and the many more than are still being matched into sex slavery across Europe by Africans or the many that have been sold by Libyans.

Truth be told if the west should leave us to our vices Africa will destroy itself. Imagine if not that the west steps in every now and then to stop our leaders from themselves by now our leader would have sold Nigeria and flee to somewhere else. That is how destructive we are to ourselves.

So please leave the west and focus inward.

We have election next year and all the idiots that has hand in the situation we are in have started crawling out from their caves to come and steal from the public and there are ordinary people who saw nothing wrong with that. And you are here pointing fingers at the west.

Well it was meant to be a 2 day war at best, now it's almost two months , 7 weeks already.

Russian intelligence told Putin that many Ukrainians would welcome Russian troops.

From house arrest in March to notorious Jail in April. Putin is not happy.
That's the result of the invasion lingering on. Of course Putin will purge more of his own.

Foreign Affairs › Re: Finnish And Swedish Leaders To Hold Joint Press Conference On NATO Membership by Scholes007(m):
All predictions keep unfolding. Consequence of international blonder. It would have made the best sense if Putin had only threatened Ukraine and not invade or at worse made a quick but tangible defeat against Ukraine. Now the more the so called special military operation lingers, the more the west will make most of it.
In the coming year or so, Russia will be relegated to a semi pariah state or at best a nuclear regional power. She will have a very little to no influence in Europe.
The bitter truth is, Russia just strengthened The west (US) hegemony. Indirectly, aided Indo-Pacific strategy.
TIP Watch the politics of Pacific region closely.

Ordinary turban wearing desert dwellers bombed world trade center and pentagon US military HQ and you're here saying they can't attack US lolz .. did Americans fulfill their aim in Afghanistan?...and yeah Russia fulfill it's aim in Ukraine they came to their terms and agreed to Putin's decision. But you're too blind to see that pls tell me any external attack on Russia soil in this century...but almighty USA was attacked and 5000 innocent civilians yet they didn't fulfill their aim in Afghanistan against the Taliban
Useless and over used lie. Afghan was just a very big miscalculation of how misogynistic these religious men can be. Check your facts right. If u want to discuss Afghanistan maybe being objective with less fallasy would help. At least put away doubt on questionable intelligence.

The US/NATO chaotic pull out from Afghanistan was very terrible in most ways, though everyone was expecting a pull out but not in such shameful and chaotic manner. It made a dent in the reputation of US and NATO, but that's not the main issue. Prior before the shameful withdrawal form Afghanistan, most people ( mostly Europeans) had lost faith in the alliance (NATO). But this attack by the Russians have strenghtened not only the alliance but the west in general.
Any wannabe rival has been surly tamed. Let's keep our fingers crossed for the next few months.
Foreign Affairs › Re: Biden Visits Ukraine Border Friday In Show Of Solidarity by Scholes007(m): 11:34am On Mar 25, 2022
Truth be told, NATO/the west has impressed everyone beyond imagination. They have made the most out of this.
*Russia has lost a lot of leverage over Europe. *Tactically they have reduced Russia to North Korean league. Holding on to nuclear weapons for survival.
* The west has successfully strengthened their influence, effectively taming a lot of rivals.

Next 3 months will be very crucial.

how did US fair in Vietnam or Iraq or Afghanistan ?
. The US defeated Iraq and Afghanistan militarily. They succeeded in Iraq in many ways. Afghanistan was just becoming too financially expensive. Besides there is no logical reason to continue the occupation

It took America 20 years to try to conquer Afghanistan yet they failed and u think Putin doesn't know Ukraine will resist strongly?? If u look at Putin advancement, he is on the winning side in just 3 weeks. Wait till it gets to one month or two month and watch what happens

Check this out
Nigeria has the largest economy in Africa yet our min wage can’t by you food for a full month but in Senegal the min wage can buy you food for a month.

What can 5K Naira do for you in Nigeria?
What can 5K CFA do for you in Senegal?
It’s about PPP
Let me use Italy vs Ireland as both uses Euro.
If you earn 1.5K Euro in Italy as a labourer then you are a big man but in Ireland, that’s not even enough for survive that month.
U don't know what u are saying.
1. A well calculated sanction from NATO members will spell Doom for Russia. Not even China can help.
2 Russia is just a low middle income nation. The best index for measuring economic development is GDP/capital or PPP/capital

Ikwerre is not a dialect of Ibo . They are separate languages in the same cluster

just like Spanish and Italian or

German Dutch
maybe or maybe not. I don't understand or speak any those languages. But I clearly know that ikwerre is not any different from other Igbo dialects. Igbo language is a cluster of dialects.

How do you react to the claim that it means "good slave" in a different language from Ibo
Pardon me if l digress a little. I can fluently speak many dialects in Igbo language, so I'm not wrong if l say ikwerre Is not one of the most difficult dialects. They are many variations in every language even within dialects, lgbo language is not an exemption.

U must be an Ikwerre man or from Rivers State to know this. Ikwerre people had them in multitude. Then how would someone come to call you same people you sold as slaves in the time past? It is only recently that Ikwerre ladies started to marry Ibos. Just in the nineties and upward. It is rare before 90s to see any Ikwerre lady married to an Igbo man. We see them as slaves even till tomorrow. And that is why we call them Isuoma. Isuoma in Ikwerre means Good Slave. We have this believe that they are very obedient and hardworking slaves.
Nice but stupid insult. Igbo always see u as slaves too. But that's by the way. Stereotypes shouldn't b encourage amongst us
