UK is an Island but yet colonized a large part of the World. size doesn't matter in War, what matter is the economy and the quality of weapon it possesses, which includes research and production capacity. same UK conquered the great China at some point. Germany isn't as big as Russia, yet they threatened the entire Europe and if not for the US, they would have probably won the second world war. So Russia's size is completely useless, even with their land mass, they are not up to 200M. They have huge land mass but not everywhere is livable.

I have told you severally not to type again, every time you type, you always goof NAFO Narcotics. Uk Colonization or the British allied forces managed to overrun the Ottoman empire who(Ottoman) already was the largest army in the 3-4 continents. By that, the Ottoman Empire outshines the British Empire until one tiny technological difference. Which is what always aids in neutralizing your opponent.. Check the word I use again, NEUTRALIZING... That does not mean you have won the war. That Tech difference exists today in the same way it did when the Ottoman lost to the British allied forces. This time around, it Russia that is more technlogially advance in th military sphere. Understand what neutralizes opposite in WAR. Russia got it all. By Landmass, I was talking about all the sanctions ditched to Russia and to tell you that it has all failed.

Russia invaded Georgia, Georgia had no choice but to cede territory cos they were weak, and the west's reluctance to engage Russia. if Georgia was strong enough they would have resisted. no nation would willing cede it's territory to another nation. EU just bullied Georgia, that's why most of USSR states rather be in NATO than trust Russia

[s]Russia had military victory in Georgia not political victory, political victory is gotten through the electioneering process. Russia took it with force. You don't even know the difference between a political victory and military victory.

The West/US got political victory through the Maiden uprising 2013 in Ukraine, no armed forces from the West as Ukraine chose closer ties with the West instead of Russia. that's a political victory, no use of force whatsoever.[/s]

All you have written there is gibberish. The U.S. removed a democratically elected president of Ukraine to Install the NAzi regime there. I don't even need to talk more about this. It's already a fact for everyone else. Every day is for the thief but one day is for the owner. Here we are finally. At the same time, these same crooks were shouting Assad must go ASSAD must go mantra. Meanwhile, they already did the only thing they know how to do best thinking, they have won. LOL... Again, that is not how to win the war. The outdated way. The Front is already on and they are losing massively both politically and Militarily and Economically (By that, how many Russian banks have defaulted since its OP began lol?)

Tiopii:

The US helped the USSR cos the US were losing? 😂😂😂😂. Man Russia was been invaded without the Lend Lease Act Germany would have conquered the entire USSR. same USSR that signed non aggression pact with the Nazis and agreed to divide Poland. talk about dinning with the devil. man said that's 5-8% of what USSR needed at that point. US spent bout $11b providing weapons and gears for the USSR in the early 1940s. How much was USSR revenue that period? you're saying a lot of nonsense. the USSR had the highest Humans loses in the second world war. The USSR economy was in pieces, the same US/West helped the USSR back to it's feet.

I already explained this part very well above, you should go back there to read it and try to understand. If English is not your 1st, let me know your first so I can try to explain it better. Brief: the same way they are pushing Ukraine now, was the same way they were supporting Hilter, he even won Times magazine front page. So understand history repeats itself. By the time the crazies that brought Nazi Battalions into Ukraine in 2014 realized they cannot move ahead, the table is still on for them. Guess what will happen? That is what I wrote above and exactly what happened during the Lend-lease act. Read it again..

Tiopii:

You keep saying the front has been stabilized but RU can't go on any offensive bar Bakmut. and you should know that RU *retreated* to the other side of the Dnipo river. You should know Russia's aim was to advance to the two bigger cities it has long coveted in the Donetsk region: Kramatorsk and Sloviansk. so saying they are doing slow and steady in Bakmut is just a big lie.

RU has been trying to take Bakmut for over 7+ months now, every now and then we hear RU has captured the city, but now it's 2-4% in Ukraine hands. no wahala, let them capture it first na. tomorrow we'd probably hear it's just 5%, next 7% until they push the RU forces out. RU is struggling to conquer a Bakmut, Bakmut isn't as big as Yobe state in Nigeria. With all their Best weapons and overwhelming numbers. Bakmut population before the war was about 250k+ and Ukraine is bout 40milliok people, how Russia who has spent 7 months in Bakmut take over Ukraine? Would probably take them 20yrs at this rate..

You keep typing the same thing, continue to cope. It's part of the denial stage. Just yesterday, More territories were regained by the PMC. They are being beaten out. SHAMELESSLY. When was the last time you heard Ukrainian Factions took any land let alone building since the 7 months you have been spilling? You COPE.

Tiopii:

Ukraine has successfully withstood RU counter offensive, sent their soldiers to NATO territories for training, got Western weapons and are almost done mastering them. but you believe RU is the one winning in Bakmut. You don't realize how insulting it is for RU. Ukraine slowed RU advance to the minimum and then sent Their soldiers overseas to practice. RU forces are overspent, they have stopped talking bout their counter offensive and even Pringozhn has advised RU to concentrate on defense.

Go back to the map I showed you, nothing has happened on the left side of the Dnieper Or Dnipro River. Russian forces took it all along and the concentration is now the remaining left side of the river which is just half of Ukraine.. DOnbass, Lugansk, Khakov and to Kiev. Look at the map, when Bakmut is completely taken, expect more to continue along that left side of the river. Look at the map again before you type another goof.

Tiopii:


[s]RU already used their best stuffs in the beginning of the war, tank? they are sending WW2 tanks to the front, as a result of the lost of fighter jets in Ukraine, RU fighter jets fire missiles from their territory into Ukraine, they don't fly into Ukraine's territory to attack. Their hypersonic missiles hasn't made any significant impact in the war. if all these RU weapons were as good as claimed, they would be conquered Ukraine by now[/s] na.

The sanctions has failed but RU reported the sanctions at the UN and asked that all sanctions not approved by the UN be abolished.

I never said RU didn't have weapons, while they do, they can't replace at the rate they are expending them, The RU stockpiles took years to pile up and as a result of the sanctions, they are not getting money as they used to and the West also placed embargo on certain products esp the ones used in making weapons. Russia's state Duma just voted to enter War Economy.

When RU first attacked they captured over 25% of Ukraine territory after the counter offensive RU are barely holding on to 16% including the Donetsk and Luhansk territories and you consider this progress? And this is proof that RU is winning😂😂😂😂😂😂

I attached a picture, so you can see how the Ruble is doing against the $$.

US is poking China, to take Europe from China? omooo you're far gone bros.

How did RU save Germany?

Western weapons turned the tides in favour of Ukraine, and at that point they got very little, now they have gotten substantial weapon systems from the West. Weapons are only good as the welders, and these weapons are new to Ukraine but according to you RU has the best weapons, what has RU best weapons achieved since Western weapons came into play? nothing, just how close they are to capturing Bakmut😂😂😂😂😂 every three days.

It is Russia that's trying to cancel the Ukraine culture, so I agree with you, Russia can't win as they are trying to cancel Ukraine's culture. And only an inferior culture seeks to cancel a superior culture, warn Russia to leave the Ukraine people and their territory alone.

what happened to snake island? I don't understand your point there

I'm not saying US/West are saints, but in this Ukraine situation, they are on the right side.

And you're quite the comedian, you brought up stuffs I didn't say and then countered them yourself to seem smart😂😂😂😂😂. And your much of the history you were saying won't help Russia in Ukraine. You just distorted history, all those places in Ukraine were part of the USSR not Russia. And the USSR don't exist anymore. Kyiv is older than Moscow, when Kyiv become a city Moscow was still a forest. No part of Ukraine was part of Russia, don't mistake USSR for Russia

And the US has the number one military in the World. The best Air force, Best Navy and Best Army by a wide margin. whoever the second is doesn't come close.

I really don't have time to respond to all the nonsense. When I do i will. As for the rates, I followed it like I always do. The ruble dipped to 145 to a dollar. The idea s telling you sanctions have failed and it's back to the sender. Take 50 Euros, 100 USD or 50Pound to a supermarket in Europe and see what you will buy with it. You won't get Polybag full of groceries. It is that bad. I do not have time. Not that all i am typing is not for you but for those reading your gilbrish. Cos to counter a NAFO narcotics with fatcs is like trying to jump off the cliff.

Tiopii:


The meat grinder is for Russian soldiers, There is no nazi to denazify, how you think Russia can take the whole of NATO is still beyond me o, since NATO started arm😂😂😂😂😂ing Ukraine, Russia hasn't captured any new territory. Wagner that has captured Bakmut for over 3 months now. US/Afgha is another issue entirely.

NATO is long outdated. Do you even think Russia by territory that is bigger than all the NATO states combined? Go and confirm that again. So in your mind, or your changing narrative that cannot be changed ever due to super facts on the ground. Russia has a landmass bigger than U.S. 2.7 times. Bigger than the whole of NATO Plus the U.S combined. For once you think an outdated, propaganda force like NATO could stand a chance? Cowardice has 226 languages and that is exactly what the U.S. has become, the de-facto leader of the anglozionist empire. To fight Russia, you need to go through Ukraine. To fight China you also need to go through Taiwan. OMg. What an outdated ideology yet you keep gapping NAFO Errotics. Sometimes, I wonder how could human race stoop so low to having mere opportunists, a Monkey republic which does not even have a sovereign state ever lead any human race.

Tiopii:

Bro, the original idea was to occupy they failed and were replled from Kyiv, there's no need lying about it, Russia wanted to conquer Ukraine simple, but they have been unable to. US didn't remove anybody, the people of Ukraine wanted a Pro West Govt simple, their economy was taking a beating and their over reliance on the Russian economy which wasn't so great and they wanted the economic prosperity and security guarantee the EU and NATO could offer like other former USSR territories. if NATO has been supplying Ukraine weapons for 8 yrs, they would have taken Donbas from Russian backed separatist long time ago

If you don't know anything, you should keep calm and learn from those who know. Ok. The original idea was to get a political victory without the need to waste the lives of Nazi battalions installed since 2014. This is exactly what Russia did in Georgia in 2008. It turns out Georgia was an even smarter nation than Ukraine. That war in 2008 ended in 5 days. Russia got the political victory it wanted and till tomorrow, South Essetia and Havkkazia are autonomous republics. History will always remember Russia for this. Ok. And let me also remind you, the last time Russia had a political victory using its army in the last 2 decades was in 2008. Mention the last time your NATO/U.S. had such a political victory in the last 20 years. If you don't know anything, again keep calm and learn. You need more training, NAFO who trained you did not train you well. Here I will give you facts and figures.

Let me remind you, Russia first of all went to Kiev to get a political solution. That is, put it on paper that Donbass and Luganst are autonomous republics, and also the Crimean Peninsula has rejoined her parent country Russia. Now check the map and Tell me if this is not what Russia initially went to Kiev the first time to get. When the Puppet in Kiev Ran to Poland. Then it changed from there on to clear the NAZI forces. And it started from MAriopol. Have you heard anything of recent about Mariopol after it was taken? Pls, stop typing before I continue again.

Tiopii:

The 300k mobilized, at least you know they are in battle already, your bro @Kingsnairaland says they are still in training, and would be training for 2 yrs. I wonder how many yrs Russia use in training special forces, maybe 7 yrs😂😂😂😂😂
Russia doesn't have anymore card left, Ukraine have outmaneuvered Russia that's why in 7 months they are still fighting for Bakmut. it wasn't Russia's plan to turn Bakmut to a Meat grinder, it was Ukraine's plan, that's why Ukraine refused to leave Bakmut and instead kill as many as possible and Russia keep sending forces there. Russia have lost so much in Bakmut their ego have them tied there. More importantly, it would provide a stepping stone for Russia to advance on two bigger cities it has long coveted in the Donetsk region: Kramatorsk and Sloviansk. Most if not all of Russian offensive force are in Bakmut so don't act like they have been fighting in Bakmut for 7months + cos Russia wants to. RU have been there cos they can't make progress cos they met a stiff opposition.

Look at the first map

Now look at the second one


Do you see where Russians are for now? The left side of the

Look at the map again... Look very well. Russians are on that side of the River and Guess what? The front has been completely stabilized so where the main forces are is along that side of the River upward. Understand Russian tactics for once before you make the mouth. FROM history the Region along the River where Russia is, was part of Russia. Till Kiev combined with Belarus. NOVO Rossia is what it was called. Even till Odessa, another Russian city. So it's glaring why the major front is now in Donbass. From Donbass upward to Kiev along that Dniper Rivver, Russia will take it all eventually. That is the tactics. This is why Artemoscks is one of the most fortified regions ever. Hence you have it... MEAT GRINDER. History will remember this day very well. Again if you don't know anything about the war, you should not be employed by those who keep paying you. THE EAST OF UKRAINE TO THE RIVER IS WHERE ALL ANGLOZIONIST EMPIRE FALL, ITS GRAVEYARD. Dating as far back as the Crimean penisular war. Understand history first.

Tiopii:

The act I'm talking about is the Lend Lease act, I don't know any Land use act, except the one in Lagos sha. Ukraine has been on the defensive for 7months +, when Ukraine last want on their own offensive they took Kherson and Kharkiv, without NATO weapons, now NATO weapons are here babyy😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. You have no idea bout the Lend Lease act, so you dunno what you're saying. Even the Donetsk, Kherson, Luhansk, and Zaporizhzhia that Russia annexed, they don't even control those areas.
With Ukraine offensive looming, Russia has been building defensive fortifications everywhere, even in Crimea and parts of Belgorod.
Second World war, US/West were on Russia's side against Germany, now they are on Ukraine's side against Russia. The new Nazis are Russia. This slow and steady thing is quite funny cos Russia wanted a quick victory in Ukraine. Ukraine is forcing their hand
If I am to understand you, the 300k soldiers are in the other size of the Dnipo river?😂😂😂😂😂 Occupying there? They should be engaging the Ukraine army na

Yes, sorry for the typo. Lend act which Ukraine just go dragged into. That is what the U.S. did to USSR just when it became glaring that they were losing massively. And it was a saving face act on the empire that was supporting the fascist German sect with all you could imagine, a carbon copy of what they are doing now to Ukraine. OK. Understand this fact in history and know Peace. if you throw a knife up 1 million times, only that flattened side of it will land on the ground. The act only provide about 5-8% of the resources Russia needed at the time. Let me also remind you that after Red Army got to Berlin. The U.S. and Britain, part of the saving face, bombed the hell out of Dresden Germany an example today is Lviv. Where the core fascist ideology was its base. The bombing of the city of Dresen, Genocide there was more than Hiroshima and Nagasaki combined. Let me lecture you on these facts.

Tiopii:

The offensive Wagner PMC are doing, what have they achieved so far? [/b]Aside lose their men and complain of lack of ammunition
Most of the NATO trained Ukraine soldiers are returning from their training, they haven't been involved in the defense of Bakmut but rather mastering the new Western weapons and getting ready for their offensive.
[b]Ukraine has repelled RU in Bakmut for over 7 months, sent men to training in NATO territories, got new Western weapons, mastering the weapons and you want to believe RU is the one succeeding or tying down Ukraine in Bakmut.

One question, are you a full time or part time comedian?

They have achieved victory so far and Artyomovsk/Bakhmut the meat grinder is only 2-4% left under the control of the Ukrainian Forces. That is a fact as we type.
Ukraine has been grounded for months and it has been very slow and steady. What Does that mean? It will take longer for Russia to finally retake all of Donbass? What do you think will happen by the time the whole of Donbass is taken? Kiev is not far. This will forever close the border to mainland Russia. On the left of the River, expect everything along that line to fall. Then Russia comes again to the table with a New offer. NATO/U.S. wants off the NAzi or Russia will continue? UNDERSTAND history first before you reply again... You need to go back to studying first.

Tiopii:

Man you don't substantial proof, it's normal to accept superior facts. Russia that has hypersonic missiles how has it helped them in Ukraine, Ukraine even said the Patriotic Air Defense system intercepted one hypersonic missile.

You are always updated on the Narcotics. Lol. Lol Again... What about the Ghost of Kiev? Where is he today? You could even bring that Rubbish on here. OMG. You should stop and tell your masters or those teaching you, you get a superior counter and up to date person with facts and figures. You are so up on the nonsense... Just look at what they have turned into... A propaganda war, trying to boost morale. Lol. The last time, it was Russian weapons soon finish right? Now it's this one... What about the Snake Island? Ukraine said LOL... Pls, stop already.

Tiopii:

Ruble has actually turned to rubble if you compare the exchange rate of Dollar to ruble pre war and presently.

The thing with Russian weapons is they are not usually as good as they claim, doesn't mean it is bad or ineffective.

Like I said earlier you've no argument just emotions and sentiments.

Let's see how the counter offensive would go. but I can tell for a fact Russia without any mobilization can conduct anymore offensive beyond Bakmut.

You just told a lie again. Just when the war started, the news and all, 1 USD gained strength to a level of 145 USD from 72 to a Ruble. After a year, with all the 8000 Sanctions. Which failed massively which was not even about Russia but to contain Europe and Germany.
Let me also tell you, the U.S. is poking China to also take Europe completely away from China. If you don't know today. Know this for a fact. Russia already played its card. It won't save any Stupid Germany again but will stop them in Ukraine cos of HISTORY again REPEATING ITSELF.

The thing about Russian weapons is this and this is a fact.. if you want to win a war, you have no better option other than Russian weapons but if you only want to flex muscle, then go for the western useless ones.
WAR CAN ONLY BE WON IN THE HEART OF THE PEOPLE. When you try to CANCEL A CULTURE, YOU CAN NEVER WIN WAR LIKE THAT...
A HIGHER CULTURE ALWAYS PRESERVES AND RESPECTS ALL CULTURES. ONLY AN INFERIOR CULTURE TRIES TO CANCEL A SUPERIOR ONE.

Let me end with hat one today. THE WEST IS WRONG AND WILL LOSE.

Tiopii:


LOL. For over 7 months Russia couldn't capture any city in their counter offensive, all their offensive was based in Bakmut and they are yet to capture the city, they are even using cluster ammunition and incendiary weapons.

Is that the new cope for losing massively? The meat grinder is doing exactly what Russia called it, a Special military operation to denazify Ukraine, but guess what, they are not only denazifying Ukraine but the whole of NATO and the remnants of the spent Armies. By that, I meant spending over 20 years in Afghanistan and losing, ran out overnight. Now that is an idea of a spent army.

Tiopii:

They can't even take Bakmut in a fair battles. Wagner PMC and Russia's Military would be in Bakmut until the counter offensive catches up with them. you're praising the last kick of a dying horse 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.

Counter Offensive soon. Slava Ukraini

The idea originally is not to occupy, or understand English small pls, the idea is to denazify but then it changed truely occupying. They are not taking it, it has always belonged to the Russian-speaking majority who live there. Let me also remind you that the President Yanokowich that was removed by the U.S sponsored Regime change in 2014 was born in the Donbass. And guess what, PMC is the one fighting. Private military company - This must be remembered in history books that almighty NATO after training NAZIs for over 8 years, supply them with massive weapons and ammunition only to be losing to ordinary PMC in the ATERMOCSK Battle. It's a PR failure on the side of combined NATO and all of the remnants. It's a sad reality.

Tiopii:



LOL. Russia isn't fighting NATO, NATO is giving Ukraine weapons and training their soldiers. Same way US armed USSR against Germany, and nobody said Germany were fighting the US and USSR.

If NATO were to be involved the war would be over in less than a month. as weapons are only good as the welders and Ukraine started training on them recently and most of the weapons given to Ukraine were made in the 80s.

At the beginning of the war, Russia tried attacking Kyiv and were repelled and pushed back, don't act like Russia didn't try to abeg. Russia that said the war would be over in over two weeks are still fighting for close to a year.

Russia is fighting the war Ukraine wants them to fight, you came to conquer a country and for over 7 months you haven't been able to capture any new territory.

Why do you like living in denial? Go get loaded with info about the lend lease act, the U.S. rendered to the USSR, always be informed, it's like what is happening in Ukraine as we speak. If the West wants to save face, they can come back to their senses, cos they are losing massively, all they need to do is say, truly, Zelenky is a NAZI and they need to remove him, now to do that, they're going to side with anyone offing the NAZI. That is exactly what happened in the 2nd world war. Whether you like it or not Russia will still overrun them, Russia is taking it slowly and steadily. When was the last time you even heard the NAZI trained crooks took any village, let alone a Building? It's been long. This is history repeating itself. The Lend lease ACT which Russia paid for everything was like that. it was saving face.

Tiopii:

Russia called up 300k+ around September during their partial mobilization. The Russians soldiers in Belarus went there for training and most of them are already in Ukraine fighting. Russia doesn't have any 500k reserve anywhere to call up.

If Poland or US gets directly involved if Russia don't go Nuclear, they are toast. Just Poland would dismantle them, US is an overreach.

You think it's in Russia's bests interest that the war continues? Russia's state Duma voted to enter War economy. and I understand you don't know what it means and the consequences for Russians now and later.

You don't know anything about war at all. The 300 Partial mobilizations were specifically used to Occupy land already taken by the PMC and other Russian forces on the ground. Understand small things about war. When Russia retreated to the other side of the Dnipo River, it could not stabilize the front because they were no occupying forces, those 300k were specifically occupying the land already taken, Look at it, a full stretch front has since been stabilized. If you don't know anything about the war, please stop typing. You are too less informed, you are typing based on emotions. it's too poor.

Tiopii:



Russia has been on the offensive for 7 months and no new territory captured and you're saying it's intensional😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. Ukraine backed them to a corner and they are not/can't make any territorial gain.

If Russia would ever go on an offensive again, they would need to remobilize, the problem is those in action already are complaining of lack of ammunition and outdated equipments. so where would Russia get ammunition for another hundred of thousands of conscripts.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ACSvN4pWTc this a pro Russian YouTube channel even them are coming to the realization of what's coming.

Emotions don't win you wars, Money and weapons does.
Adios

As I explained to you already about the issue you raised, you see the same tactics you are using, emotions. It's not what wins the war. Strategies, logistics are what wins it. Russia got all the cards as we speak. Look at the front. Russia has been on the offensive but guess who is doing the offensive? PMC and they are using private military. Did you see that strategy?

#EsuIsNotSatan: The significance and Misconception of Esu, Walk every 24th of December.


It is the 24th day of December 2022 Gregorian year, (Kojoda calendar, it’s 10,064th year) a day Ifa Practitioners, traditionalists, and all respectful Omoluabi, Omo Karo O’jire remind the entire universe of the personality that surrounds Esu. In a message that serves as an awareness #EsuIsNotSatan.

Today we remind everyone of many misconceptions and the significance of Esu. Esu is not satan, it has never been and will never be. Listed below are a few functions and misconceptions of Esu.

Top 10 misconceptions of Esu – #EsuIsNotSatan

1) Esu – the Holy Saviour and the Messiah Of the Universe.

2) He is one of the delegated Irunmoles of Olodumare. Hence, a messenger of Olodumare.

3) Esu stands as a prosecutor to defaulters of the instructions of Olodumare. You may likewise call him the first Law enforcement agent of Olodumare.

4) He is always on the side of Justice and Equity.

5) Esu’s actions fall within the Jurisdiction of obligations as instructed by his Creator (Olodumare)

6) All attribute as Power, wisdom, knowledge, and skills are given to Esu by Olodumare for his mission on Earth.

7) Esu has no desire for praises or worship that belongs to Olodumare therefore, he is not god with a small letter g or God with a capital letter G. Esu is Esu.

He does not have the power, might, gut or nerve to contest the position of Olodumare.

9) Esu is accountable and reports directly to Olodumare.

10)The Esu spirituality(Irunmole) is consent to the supremacy of Olodumare

Significance of #EsuIsNotSatan

Olodumare created Esu for all People to Protect, Guard, and save us from all attributes Of life Challenges. Esu is the messenger who delivers our messages to Olodumare. Esu is the centre Orisa between the left side and right side of the World. Likewise, Esu can be simply called the middle Orisa between Omo Orisa and Our Ajogun.

It’s believed that the world consists Of 2 different Side;

(1) The Right Side

(2) Left Side

The right side of the world:

The right-hand side of the world is where All Orisa lives with us all their Omo.

The left side of the world:

The left-hand side of the world is where All Evils Doers and Evil makers live. It is believed that the left side is the dark side. The right side is called (OTUN AYE ) while the left side is called (OSI AYE).

In Otun Aye:

All Omo Orisa usually seeks Greatness, Prosperity, Freedom, Power, Long life, Wealth, Good living, Life Betterness, Comfortability, Peace, etc. Usually, from their mothers and fathers which are the Orisa.

In Osi Aye,

They are all designed to spoil the goodwill that the Omo orisas are seeking on the right side.

Meanwhile, the dark side is purely created to damage all good efforts Of Progress, Greatness, Peace, comfortability of life, etc

The general name for the dwellers Of Osi aye is called ” AJOGUN IBI ”. Olodumare specially created Esu for everyone to Protect, Guard, and save us from all attributes of life challenges. Esu is the messenger who delivers our messages to Olodumare. Esu is the centre Orisa between the left side and right side of the World. In addition, Esu can be simply called the middle Orisa between Omo Orisa and Our Ajogun.

In this section of #EsuIsnotsatan awareness, we list the Different Kinds Of Esu:

Esu Odara,Esu Alaje,Esu Ogo, Esu Olapakia, Esu Agbalu, Esu Ogiri Oko,Esu Elegbara, Esu ilu, Esu Ayiluka,Esu laroye, Esu Barabebe,Esu Alasuwada, Esu Oja, Esu Yangi, Esu Aseta, Esu Ija, Esu Ebita, Esu Awure e.t.c

All these Esu’s have their significant purposes of importance,

But ESU ODARA is the leader and the most Powerful.

Esu Odara is the one we give our ebo to after making it. The ebo is the message Odara helps us to deliver as an appeal to Ajogun ibi who wants to do us bad. When the Ajogun ibi accepts the ebo from Esu. We begin to live more comfortably in life. That is why the more we do ebo in the right,

The more we save ourselves from any source of trouble from the left.

Anywhere you go from east to west, from south to north, one would find an element of the U.S. and its puppet state causing one trouble or the other. The world must never allow any nation to have such a power to be causing multiple troubles after the fall of the U.S.A empire or the anglozionist empire. Talking about grain export also to many African countries like Nigeria and fertilizer, are also involved as a punishment for the global south for not sanctioning Russia. Everyone is tired of this permanent state of terrorist sponsorship.

An "experienced conductor" is most likely behind the activation of the Kurds in Syria and Iraq, namely the United States, said Lavrentiev, Special Representative of the Russian President for Syria.

According to him, the West considers the Syrian dossier as an additional front in the fight against Russia against the backdrop of Ukraine.

"And lately, this intensification of the activities of the Kurds against Iran and the Syrian Kurds against Turkey, probably, is happening for a reason, but some experienced conductor is probably behind this"

“It can be said here without any ambiguity that the United States is most likely behind this. Because the United States also supports the Iranian Kurds, inciting them to protest. , are highly dependent

So true

Putin Misplays His Cards, what Could Have Been a Winning Hand has become the Road to Armageddon

Paul Craig Roberts

Every day that passes raises my concern that the Kremlin is mishandling a dangerous situation and making it more dangerous. Putin and Lavrov send every wrong signal. The message they should be sending is “Don’t Tread on Me.” Instead, Lavrov whines that his “Western partners” are being mean to Russia, and Putin offers energy so NATO countries can continue their war against Russia and be saved from freezing to death while they are fighting against Russia.

Being mean is an understatement. The Russians know what this is all about right from the onset and has played every card pretty well. Like the lecturer of all politics and war. They have carefully chosen their cards and played them super well from the beginning of the conflict, since 2014. You have just got to give it to them.

Putin still doesn’t understand that he is at war. He speaks as if Russia is a member of the European Community.

On the contrary, the Russians have been at war with the west since the Monarchy was destroyed and replaced with a provisional government until the Zionist revolution which then lead to the USSR and what you have today as the Balkanization of the Russian people. The west is mad, very mad that they are losing or have lost again to Russia since Russia is finally back. They tried testing Russian during the Chechnia war, but it did not end well for them. Even the remnant of the Western or what you might call EURO integrationists (the 5th column and 6th) are mad at the west. Thanks to Putin, he finally won that internal struggle. It's the west particularly the baby EUROPE or EU who still do not understand they are at a WAR for Economic survival. Not with Russia but with the Washington treaty.

timesupreloaded:

The German government told Putin “NO,” we prefer for Germans to freeze to death and for German industry and economy to shut down than to displease Washington by buying your natural gas. How long before we see Putin on his knees begging Germany to let him give them the gas?

Putin knows that Washington and NATO Europe are determined to destroy Russia and break the country up into principalities comparable to Germany before the unification of Germany in 1871. Putin recently addressed the Russian people on the West’s declared threat against Russia, so why does he beg Europe to let Russia strengthen Europe against Russia by supplying Europe with energy?

This is exactly what the Bait in Eastern Ukraine is all about. It has since changed from Ukraine-Russia now to Russia's NATO war but most precisely New Europe. Putin offering gas to Europe is giving them two options. DO YOU WANT your CHEAP GAS back or do you Want to Fight with 300,000 well-armed Russians? (Plus Belarus is also moping up and CIS too mind you)

I believe those puppets or vassals in Germany and France are even worse than Zelensky. They will choose to fight with the hope they re-due what was done in the past during the Crimean war. (This is their only hope). Today, Turkey won't be used as their cannon fodders since Russia already offered Turkey a gas deal. Wooing Turkey. So New EUROPE vs Russia will fail. This is what has been on the table for a long time.

The new EUROPE vs Russia in covert operation is going on right now. When they see they cannot change the tide unless they drag old Europe into it, will those fight? Is anyone of them ready to have Paris bombed to the Ashes? I doubt no. People will rather choose not to fight in one. So Putin is still the smarted Politician alive.

timesupreloaded:

In Washington the neoconservatives who control US foreign policy see the inconsistency between Putin’s words and deeds as Putin’s irresolution and inability to use force. This is why Washington is so confident that Russia can be defeated.

I think Washington is misreading the situation, and so is Putin. Putin is trying to avoid a real war and trying to show Europe that he is a friend and not an enemy. Putin’s play is obvious. He is telling Europe to ditch their Washington master and enjoy warm winters and operating industry with Russian energy. It would even be better for Americans who would continue to have parts for their BMWs, Porsches, Mercedes, and VWs.

Washington sees Putin as a person whose red lines are fictional and undefended. The recent Russian strikes, belatedly after eight months of being at war, against Ukrainian infrastructure are regarded by neoconservatives as being a weak response to the Ukrainian attempt to blow up the Crimea bridge. It was a tit for a tat, not a demonstration that Ukraine faces destruction if Ukraine widens the war beyond the Russian police action in Donbass.

In reality, they do not see Putin as being weak. They are really happy and laughing right now. The question someone outside the box should ask is how would Britain fight a war with Ireland. How would the U.S.A fight a war with Canada? This is exactly the way Brothers fight. In the case of Russia, it's their lands and survival they are fighting here not the other way around. They are not in any of those lands that were under the Austro-Hungarian empire, this explains why more people speak the Russian language in Ukraine. Russia has been too kind. Has sent too much body language but going only to deaf ears. Don't be surprised, if Russia decides to start Striking the U.S.A first as another warning sign. If the west chooses to test its long-range weapons by sending them Ukraine to Ukraine. Be rest assured that Russia will deliver the same to Syria and all U.S bases in Syria and even Iraq may be roasted. That is if they choose to escalate it. Russia has still not escalated it. Just keeping it calm and trying to contain it. This is the card Russia holds very calmly. It must not be acting like what the global south, CIS,BRICS, EURASIA are running away from. Trust, every one of them understand Russia's position.. Russia has turned to this card as well.

Putin has botched what could have been an easy victory that would have concluded before Washington had time to impose sanctions and organize Ukraine’s army and weapons supply. But Putin cannot free himself from his illusions and delusions about the West. Thus, the war has expanded into the conflict that Putin hoped to avoid. The question is whether Putin yet realizes that Russia is at war. He says so in speeches, but his actions are not in agreement with his words. In the end it seems that Putin himself is an Atlanticist Integrationist, not a Russian nationalist.

Wrong, Putin is a Unifier and more of a EURASIA Integrationist but not what you wrote. If you had called Dmitry Medvedev an Atlanticist, I would not agree less. The thing now is, Russian Atlanticist and EURASIA Integrationist are unified, dumping the the Atlanticist ideology and following Putin. Cos the future really is EURASIA. When EUROPE eyes are finally opened, the BOAT would have sailed, and they will need the catching up to do. By then, U.S.A will be irrelevant.

Let me stop here.. Too many incorrect info..

That is a decade ago, the 2012 GEJ era. It was an era of absolute lawlessness. The question is, has anything changed today?

Crixxx:


There are better things to deal on rather than a steal industry right now tbh
Steel industry can only come when the country is functioning properly not when it is Perishing

The steel industry has always been part of the solution to the Economic problem. All the security issues facing the country today are directly linked to joblessness. A country that does not have a steel industry will have a lot of jobless people because there is no Industry. Even the farming Buhari admin is saying is a waste of time. No mechanized farming as we speak. A country without a steel industry cannot practice mechanized farming.

Someone that is jobless can easily be lured into crimes. He has nothing to lose. The steel industry is the base of any developed economy. You can build Planes, bombs, tanks and hammer anything that uses steel without the need to seak foreign exchange that will further depreciate your local currency. Building anything needs steel. It's a huge Economy that would employ Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3 people. The issue of electricity too. You will need power for the industries.

This is why Yaradua was supposedly killed. He was ill, just like everyone else in their old age. Could he still live longer, yes? But he crossed all the redlines. Reviving Ajaokuta was part of the agenda and he signed a Rosatom deal with the Russians. That was a death warrant. It's then understandable why GEJ changed those two and replaced Rosatom deal with the dead General Electric and also sanctioned the Ajaokuta steel industry. It became obvious why his boss was killed. GEJ only lived to fight tomorrow. The fight continues.

PDP:
PDP and Atiku have lost it a long time ago. Atiku is sold-out and would sell out Nigeria like his OBJ era. He was the Puppet of the U.S in charge of privatization. We must know the cold war going on now is not just against Russia but against any country that has refused privatization. Atiku also lost it when he and Saraki were running up and down selling out the country to the U.S in the last election. I don’t know when someone wanted for crime becomes unwanted for 48 hours in the U.S.

LP: His last interview did more bad than good for him. All I could hear from his press is how he would go to Egypt and ask them how they double their megawatts(SIgn of a sold-out). As if he does not live in Nigeria and understand what is going on. This is how you will know a sold-out puppet. Another thing is I keep hearing IMF and DEBT from him way too much. No plan, nothing. The sound of IMF in the mouth of someone that is contesting is RedZone. (A typical example in the past was IBB). More debt slavery.

APC: Well, a more qualified candidate for the post. Not the “Putin” Nigeria needs to be honest but could still be manageable in the absence of a real Putin(Someone like Babatunde Raji Fashola could be the Putin Nigeria Needs but he’s not contesting). As long as any one of these politicians refuse to solve the structural deformation of the country one of such is completely reviving the Health industry in a way no Politician will ever be allowed to travel abroad for medical check-up.

I can bet, that not much will change. After checking all the contradictions in the entity called Nigeria. The only way they can kill the leaders who are ready to truly revive the Ajaokuta steel industry and complete Rosatom(Nuclear power plants for Power) is via traveling abroad for medical check-ups. Until this health industry issue is solved.

I see Nigeria on a steady decline. Whoever becomes the president out of the three, will never stop the depreciation of Naira. Depreciation of the Naira can only stop if the Ajaokuta steel industry is revived completely and Rosatom power plants to power the industry are continued or also completed. Any leader who refuses to play balls or sabotage this deal will be killed by the west. To avoid not being killed, the health sector must be revolutionized.
Again, the only manageable candidate is Tinubu. Rest, I see a complete sold-out.

At op Nice write up. You are on point.

Crixxx:
We Dy talk better things to revive economy this one Dy talk of steel industry wey Dy collect condemned motor parts for him village

A country without a steel industry is not a serious country. Like it or not. A country without a working steel industry is not regarded as an industrialized country. Buhari pretty much sabotages the Ajaokuta just like everyone else before him.

Anybody Following The West From Now On Is A Nazi Sympathiser Particularly The U.s, Britain, And Israel...


When they removed a regime in 2014, burnt down people in the Odessa building. Started killing all the people of Donbas and Lugansk. People did not hate the Nazis installed in Ukraine. Russian speaker's life in Eastern Europe Ukraine does not matter right.

I don't know how you Nazi followers reason. Their forefather did not fight in the second world war only to have what they both fought together now hijacked the state and killed people. Over 13,000 people were killed in the Donbas and Lugansk region since the start of the war in 2014.

Is this insane ni? Your foolish western lies will not tell you this. How can you install a puppet nazi saying everyone must speak only Ukrainian and if not, they should come from their motherland? You don't poke the bear and expect it to be calm Nah.

All the commentators on Nairaland sef lack any sense. FROM NOW ON, ANYBODY FOLLOWING THE WEST FROM NOW ON IS NAZI SYMPATHISER PARTICULARLY THE U.S, BRITAIN, and ISRAEL. ANY OF THEIR MEDIA TOO OR PROXY MEDIA. IS A NAZI FOLLOWER.

List of the media BANNED from now on from Watching by Nigerians (If you want to have sense)


1) BBC (The Father of all propaganda)
2) CNN (The Mother of all Propaganda)
3) Wikipedia,YahooNews, MSNBC (The grandchild of Propaganda)
4) CIA factbook, Canadian - Reuters (The grandchild of Propaganda)
5) FOXNews,WON, Euronews (The children of Propaganda)
6) French France24 (The Proxy Children of Propaganda)
7) DW German (The puppet or proxy propaganda mouthpiece)
8 ) Al jeezera (Qatari - Great-grandchild of propaganda, proxy media)
9) Anything that has voice i.e voice of Africa, the voice of America(The Children of propaganda)
10) Anything that has posts or times. E.g times of Moscow, India or Washinton Post, NY post( The children of Propaganda)
11) Anything you see on google, youtube, or Twitter (Mouth Piece propaganda de-indexed media of the liberal)

12) Any media in Nigeria that copies, re-writes, and paste without any investigative media(that is someone on the ground and given an independent, alternative opinion that is not western related) should be ignored.


What are the media to watch about what is happening outside the world?
1) Start from Iranian media (iranpress)
2) North Korean media (yna)
3)Syrian Media (Sana)
4) Chinese Media (CGTN)
5) Venezuelean Media(Look for it)
6) Russian Media (Tass)

I second the list of banned western media. It's long overdue. To reason like a normal human being. This is highly needed by Nigerians and Africans entirely.

Nairaland has turned to the propaganda mouth piece of the west. What a shame to be on the side of your oppressors and not reporting unbiased copy and paste straight from the Western media narrative.

Kingpin1000:
When it comes to smaller countries, FIFA will ban them for political interference. Today they are the ones bringing politics into football.
Our eyes are wide open to the deceit of the west.

Thank you. The anglozionist forces running most of the things are finally losing any little credibility left. They are the cause of their ruin.

No, it is not ND2 per se. That was just a deal between Russia and Germany which the U.S and many Nazi governments installed in Europe love to make a mouth about. They will sanction it, this and that.

They just served in Russia's court.

It's more about the threat to the National security of Russia. Remember before it all started, Russia asked the puppet master for security guarantees.
Ukraine will not Join NATO. Which is the reason for all the conflict from the onset. The main reason Russia has been supporting the shared interest of Donbas and Crimeans since the coup in 2014.

Russia openly asks the WEST for these guarantees but as usual, they always double down, and here we are.

How much is ND2. Russia is already supplying Germany over 17BCm3. ND2 is just to increase that by 15%.

WoundedLamb:


Thank you for the thoughtful and respectfully presented argument. Please, don't be offended but I don't think you really addressed any of the things I said (or maybe I didn't fully understand your response). You're telling me why Russia doesn't want Ukraine in NATO. I think we all know that already. I gave you reasons why Ukraine wants to be in NATO. I explained Ukraine's desire to join NATO is not a want but a need. It is a survival move and Russia pushed them to that. So if you're asking them not join NATO or EU, what would you suggest they do? Just stay and be oppressed/sliced into non existence by Russia? It's like hitting a child and asking him not to cry.

Do you know the meaning of NATO? There is a difference between Ukraine wanting to join NATO and Ukraine is being dragged to joining NATO.
The difference is Ukraine was more a neutral state until the 2014 second coup happened in Kiev/Kyiv.

Do you know what that means? It means you have lost your territorial integrity both economically and militarily. It's as simple as that.
This is one of the reasons we are having Economic issues to date. When Buhari was removed and IBB installed. We lost out economic territorial integrity as the IBB, IMF puppet signed PetroDollar Economy with the west. This is why before you can buy anything from China, you must first convert Naira to Dollar. Buhari refused this offer from the west, they removed him after they trained Buhari to remove Sheu Shagari.

You see what they are doing in Ukraine today or did in 2014. Is what they have done several times and went scot-free.
When they did regime change in 2014, three states in Ukraine decided to seek refuge. First was Crimean penisular, second Donestk and Lugansk. These three states have the full right to determine their future since power is removed in Kiev.

Ukraine lost its territorial Integrity. The puppet installed already created a clause in the constitution that allows Ukraine to join NATO. So it's just the official one they are trying to play to all of you now. This is the same procedure they did with Ghana(AFRICOM). Nigeria does not allow AFRICOM in west Africa but they already did the same thing to Ghana. I won't go into the details for time. Just remember the last time U.S president came to Africa. Do you wonder where he went? Their puppet state(Ghana)

WoundedLamb:


As for the regions, are you saying the fact that we have some Ukrainians who speak Russian and feel Russian is a good reason for Putin to keep invading thier country and violating thier integrity even after signing he'd never do that? Is it that when they were signing the Budapest, they didn't know there were Russians in Ukraine? Or they just wanted to decieve the country into giving up ALL thier nuclear weapons? Can Russia be trusted at this point? We have Yorubas in Binin Republic, will you support Nigeria to invade Binin for any reason? This is the 21st century, I really don't think things work that way anymore.

I think I already explained to you the meaning of Territorial integrity. You make mention of the Budapest memorandum: Please take note of this one, the west will never tell you. Number one Ukraine also already lost in the agreement made in Budapest when it removed the president of the Crimean peninsula and gave him persona non grata after deporting him to Russia. Budapest memorandum only involves Ukraine and as at the time 1991, when USSR fell, Ukraine declared independence the same way Crimean peninsula declared independence. The first coup Ukraine did was in 1994 after it removed the Crimean president and canceled the Crimean constitution.

Number 2: What those saying Budapest memorandum will not tell you, it's not a legally binding agreement. Meaning it was not signed into law by the President of Russia and other states involved. What that means is, if Ukraine tries to take Russia to court with jurisdiction, it will be thrown into the trash can. it's just like the Minks agreement too. It's not legally binding since Ukraine did not provide a clause for it in its constitution. It's just an agreement.

WoundedLamb:

I read you correctly about Cuba. When presented side by side with this one, they're not exactly the same in terms causative and operational factors, but the motifs are similar and we can borrow a few things from how it was eventually resolved. We can talk about that if you want (the comparison is another interesting subject), but I don’t subscribe to the idea of justifying the slaughtering of people in Eastern Europe based on anti-American sentiments. The focus shouldn't be the oppressors but the victims. And when you view it that way, it begins to make little sense to say "because Cubans suffered this, it's OK for Ukrainians to suffer it". Like I said, we can talk about this cause it's a worthy subject but not a necessarily a justification for Putin.

This is the hypocrisy in the west or the anglozionist empire. For 8 years, the people of Lugansk and Donestk have been bombed and shelled. Every day, they're being shelled. Minks' agreement only involved removing he4avy weapons from the contact line. They were being shelled every day of that 8 years. The west frowned at it. These were the people who said no to the regime installed in 2014. They have rights too don't they? Aren't they humans?

These are the victims of war. The victims of Nuland F*ck the EU when they were looking for who to use as their puppet in 2014. This was not Russia oh. As a matter of fact. Let's be realistic here. Russia when the same thing happened in 2008, Georgian war. Russia did not wait for 8 years before it took action.

Action and reaction is equal and opposite. Russia could argue and has point.
1) It's against the UN charter to forcefully impose a language against anyone. This is what the neo-Nazi regime did in 2014. They were even saying, if you cannot speak Ukrainian, or you don't see yourself as Ukrainians, then you should leave your motherland, go to Russia. Even Poroshenko was saying it loud and clear. That all the kids in Donetks and Luganks will be sleeping in bomb Shelters when others will be going to school. That is genocide intent right there. WAR CRIME.

The west will not say anything about this.

2) Russia is in this context defending the people of Donetsk and Lugansk who are Russian-speaking territories and have decided to hold on to their traditions. Is under the UN charter.
The Hypocrisy of the west is this. When NATO bombed Yugoslavia for 78 days. And created Kosovo. They made it look like it's the new norm. Now that Russia is doing the exact same thing behind its border oh. Please the hypocrisy is just too much which has the dirrect interest of the people shelled for over 8 years.

This is why you should always drink a lot of water during the day. Water (in litres) to drink a day = Your Weight (in Kg) multiplied by 0.033.

If you are 100kg.. It means you must drink 100*0.033= 3.3Litres of water per day.

A must.

Comrade officers,

Your fathers, grandfathers and great-grandfathers did not fight the Nazi occupiers and did not defend our common Motherland to allow today’s neo-Nazis to seize power in Ukraine. You swore the oath of allegiance to the Ukrainian people and not to the junta, the people’s adversary which is plundering Ukraine and humiliating the Ukrainian people.

I urge you to refuse to carry out their criminal orders. I urge you to immediately lay down arms and go home. I will explain what this means: the military personnel of the Ukrainian army who do this will be able to freely leave the zone of hostilities and return to their families.

I want to emphasise again that all responsibility for the possible bloodshed will lie fully and wholly with the ruling Ukrainian regime.

I would now like to say something very important for those who may be tempted to interfere in these developments from the outside. No matter who tries to stand in our way or all the more so create threats for our country and our people, they must know that Russia will respond immediately, and the consequences will be such as you have never seen in your entire history. No matter how the events unfold, we are ready. All the necessary decisions in this regard have been taken. I hope that my words will be heard.

Citizens of Russia,

The culture and values, experience and traditions of our ancestors invariably provided a powerful underpinning for the wellbeing and the very existence of entire states and nations, their success and viability. Of course, this directly depends on the ability to quickly adapt to constant change, maintain social cohesion, and readiness to consolidate and summon all the available forces in order to move forward.

We always need to be strong, but this strength can take on different forms. The “empire of lies,” which I mentioned in the beginning of my speech, proceeds in its policy primarily from rough, direct force. This is when our saying on being “all brawn and no brains” applies.

We all know that having justice and truth on our side is what makes us truly strong. If this is the case, it would be hard to disagree with the fact that it is our strength and our readiness to fight that are the bedrock of independence and sovereignty and provide the necessary foundation for building a reliable future for your home, your family, and your Motherland.

Dear compatriots,

I am certain that devoted soldiers and officers of Russia’s Armed Forces will perform their duty with professionalism and courage. I have no doubt that the government institutions at all levels and specialists will work effectively to guarantee the stability of our economy, financial system and social wellbeing, and the same applies to corporate executives and the entire business community. I hope that all parliamentary parties and civil society take a consolidated, patriotic position.

At the end of the day, the future of Russia is in the hands of its multi-ethnic people, as has always been the case in our history. This means that the decisions that I made will be executed, that we will achieve the goals we have set, and reliably guarantee the security of our Motherland.

I believe in your support and the invincible force rooted in the love for our Fatherland.

February 24, 2022

The Kremlin, Moscow

As a result, the country was not prepared to counter the invasion by Nazi Germany, which attacked our Motherland on June 22, 1941, without declaring war. The country stopped the enemy and went on to defeat it, but this came at a tremendous cost. The attempt to appease the aggressor ahead of the Great Patriotic War proved to be a mistake which came at a high cost for our people. In the first months after the hostilities broke out, we lost vast territories of strategic importance, as well as millions of lives. We will not make this mistake the second time. We have no right to do so.

Those who aspire to global dominance have publicly designated Russia as their enemy. They did so with impunity. Make no mistake, they had no reason to act this way. It is true that they have considerable financial, scientific, technological, and military capabilities. We are aware of this and have an objective view of the economic threats we have been hearing, just as our ability to counter this brash and never-ending blackmail. Let me reiterate that we have no illusions in this regard and are extremely realistic in our assessments.

As for military affairs, even after the dissolution of the USSR and losing a considerable part of its capabilities, today’s Russia remains one of the most powerful nuclear states. Moreover, it has a certain advantage in several cutting-edge weapons. In this context, there should be no doubt for anyone that any potential aggressor will face defeat and ominous consequences should it directly attack our country.

At the same time, technology, including in the defence sector, is changing rapidly. One day there is one leader, and tomorrow another, but a military presence in territories bordering on Russia, if we permit it to go ahead, will stay for decades to come or maybe forever, creating an ever mounting and totally unacceptable threat for Russia.

Even now, with NATO’s eastward expansion the situation for Russia has been becoming worse and more dangerous by the year. Moreover, these past days NATO leadership has been blunt in its statements that they need to accelerate and step up efforts to bring the alliance’s infrastructure closer to Russia’s borders. In other words, they have been toughening their position. We cannot stay idle and passively observe these developments. This would be an absolutely irresponsible thing to do for us.

Any further expansion of the North Atlantic alliance’s infrastructure or the ongoing efforts to gain a military foothold of the Ukrainian territory are unacceptable for us. Of course, the question is not about NATO itself. It merely serves as a tool of US foreign policy. The problem is that in territories adjacent to Russia, which I have to note is our historical land, a hostile “anti-Russia” is taking shape. Fully controlled from the outside, it is doing everything to attract NATO armed forces and obtain cutting-edge weapons.

For the United States and its allies, it is a policy of containing Russia, with obvious geopolitical dividends. For our country, it is a matter of life and death, a matter of our historical future as a nation. This is not an exaggeration; this is a fact. It is not only a very real threat to our interests but to the very existence of our state and to its sovereignty. It is the red line which we have spoken about on numerous occasions. They have crossed it.

This brings me to the situation in Donbass. We can see that the forces that staged the coup in Ukraine in 2014 have seized power, are keeping it with the help of ornamental election procedures and have abandoned the path of a peaceful conflict settlement. For eight years, for eight endless years we have been doing everything possible to settle the situation by peaceful political means. Everything was in vain.

As I said in my previous address, you cannot look without compassion at what is happening there. It became impossible to tolerate it. We had to stop that atrocity, that genocide of the millions of people who live there and who pinned their hopes on Russia, on all of us. It is their aspirations, the feelings and pain of these people that were the main motivating force behind our decision to recognise the independence of the Donbass people’s republics.

I would like to additionally emphasise the following. Focused on their own goals, the leading NATO countries are supporting the far-right nationalists and neo-Nazis in Ukraine, those who will never forgive the people of Crimea and Sevastopol for freely making a choice to reunite with Russia.

They will undoubtedly try to bring war to Crimea just as they have done in Donbass, to kill innocent people just as members of the punitive units of Ukrainian nationalists and Hitler’s accomplices did during the Great Patriotic War. They have also openly laid claim to several other Russian regions.

If we look at the sequence of events and the incoming reports, the showdown between Russia and these forces cannot be avoided. It is only a matter of time. They are getting ready and waiting for the right moment. Moreover, they went as far as aspire to acquire nuclear weapons. We will not let this happen.

I have already said that Russia accepted the new geopolitical reality after the dissolution of the USSR. We have been treating all new post-Soviet states with respect and will continue to act this way. We respect and will respect their sovereignty, as proven by the assistance we provided to Kazakhstan when it faced tragic events and a challenge in terms of its statehood and integrity. However, Russia cannot feel safe, develop, and exist while facing a permanent threat from the territory of today’s Ukraine.

Let me remind you that in 2000–2005 we used our military to push back against terrorists in the Caucasus and stood up for the integrity of our state. We preserved Russia. In 2014, we supported the people of Crimea and Sevastopol. In 2015, we used our Armed Forces to create a reliable shield that prevented terrorists from Syria from penetrating Russia. This was a matter of defending ourselves. We had no other choice.

The same is happening today. They did not leave us any other option for defending Russia and our people, other than the one we are forced to use today. In these circumstances, we have to take bold and immediate action. The people’s republics of Donbass have asked Russia for help.

In this context, in accordance with Article 51 (Chapter VII) of the UN Charter, with permission of Russia’s Federation Council, and in execution of the treaties of friendship and mutual assistance with the Donetsk People’s Republic and the Lugansk People’s Republic, ratified by the Federal Assembly on February 22, I made a decision to carry out a special military operation.

The purpose of this operation is to protect people who, for eight years now, have been facing humiliation and genocide perpetrated by the Kiev regime. To this end, we will seek to demilitarise and denazify Ukraine, as well as bring to trial those who perpetrated numerous bloody crimes against civilians, including against citizens of the Russian Federation.

It is not our plan to occupy the Ukrainian territory. We do not intend to impose anything on anyone by force. At the same time, we have been hearing an increasing number of statements coming from the West that there is no need any more to abide by the documents setting forth the outcomes of World War II, as signed by the totalitarian Soviet regime. How can we respond to that?

The outcomes of World War II and the sacrifices our people had to make to defeat Nazism are sacred. This does not contradict the high values of human rights and freedoms in the reality that emerged over the post-war decades. This does not mean that nations cannot enjoy the right to self-determination, which is enshrined in Article 1 of the UN Charter.

Let me remind you that the people living in territories which are part of today’s Ukraine were not asked how they want to build their lives when the USSR was created or after World War II. Freedom guides our policy, the freedom to choose independently our future and the future of our children. We believe that all the peoples living in today’s Ukraine, anyone who want to do this, must be able to enjoy this right to make a free choice.

In this context I would like to address the citizens of Ukraine. In 2014, Russia was obliged to protect the people of Crimea and Sevastopol from those who you yourself call “nats.” The people of Crimea and Sevastopol made their choice in favour of being with their historical homeland, Russia, and we supported their choice. As I said, we could not act otherwise.

The current events have nothing to do with a desire to infringe on the interests of Ukraine and the Ukrainian people. They are connected with the defending Russia from those who have taken Ukraine hostage and are trying to use it against our country and our people.

I reiterate: we are acting to defend ourselves from the threats created for us and from a worse peril than what is happening now. I am asking you, however hard this may be, to understand this and to work together with us so as to turn this tragic page as soon as possible and to move forward together, without allowing anyone to interfere in our affairs and our relations but developing them independently, so as to create favourable conditions for overcoming all these problems and to strengthen us from within as a single whole, despite the existence of state borders. I believe in this, in our common future.

I would also like to address the military personnel of the Ukrainian Armed Forces....

President of Russia Vladimir Putin:

Citizens of Russia, friends,

I consider it necessary today to speak again about the tragic events in Donbass and the key aspects of ensuring the security of Russia.

I will begin with what I said in my address on February 21, 2022. I spoke about our biggest concerns and worries, and about the fundamental threats which irresponsible Western politicians created for Russia consistently, rudely and unceremoniously from year to year. I am referring to the eastward expansion of NATO, which is moving its military infrastructure ever closer to the Russian border.

It is a fact that over the past 30 years we have been patiently trying to come to an agreement with the leading NATO countries regarding the principles of equal and indivisible security in Europe. In response to our proposals, we invariably faced either cynical deception and lies or attempts at pressure and blackmail, while the North Atlantic alliance continued to expand despite our protests and concerns. Its military machine is moving and, as I said, is approaching our very border.

Why is this happening? Where did this insolent manner of talking down from the height of their exceptionalism, infallibility and all-permissiveness come from? What is the explanation for this contemptuous and disdainful attitude to our interests and absolutely legitimate demands?

The answer is simple. Everything is clear and obvious. In the late 1980s, the Soviet Union grew weaker and subsequently broke apart. That experience should serve as a good lesson for us, because it has shown us that the paralysis of power and will is the first step towards complete degradation and oblivion. We lost confidence for only one moment, but it was enough to disrupt the balance of forces in the world.

As a result, the old treaties and agreements are no longer effective. Entreaties and requests do not help. Anything that does not suit the dominant state, the powers that be, is denounced as archaic, obsolete and useless. At the same time, everything it regards as useful is presented as the ultimate truth and forced on others regardless of the cost, abusively and by any means available. Those who refuse to comply are subjected to strong-arm tactics.

What I am saying now does not concerns only Russia, and Russia is not the only country that is worried about this. This has to do with the entire system of international relations, and sometimes even US allies. The collapse of the Soviet Union led to a redivision of the world, and the norms of international law that developed by that time – and the most important of them, the fundamental norms that were adopted following WWII and largely formalised its outcome – came in the way of those who declared themselves the winners of the Cold War.

Of course, practice, international relations and the rules regulating them had to take into account the changes that took place in the world and in the balance of forces. However, this should have been done professionally, smoothly, patiently, and with due regard and respect for the interests of all states and one’s own responsibility. Instead, we saw a state of euphoria created by the feeling of absolute superiority, a kind of modern absolutism, coupled with the low cultural standards and arrogance of those who formulated and pushed through decisions that suited only themselves. The situation took a different turn.

There are many examples of this. First a bloody military operation was waged against Belgrade, without the UN Security Council’s sanction but with combat aircraft and missiles used in the heart of Europe. The bombing of peaceful cities and vital infrastructure went on for several weeks. I have to recall these facts, because some Western colleagues prefer to forget them, and when we mentioned the event, they prefer to avoid speaking about international law, instead emphasising the circumstances which they interpret as they think necessary.

Then came the turn of Iraq, Libya and Syria. The illegal use of military power against Libya and the distortion of all the UN Security Council decisions on Libya ruined the state, created a huge seat of international terrorism, and pushed the country towards a humanitarian catastrophe, into the vortex of a civil war, which has continued there for years. The tragedy, which was created for hundreds of thousands and even millions of people not only in Libya but in the whole region, has led to a large-scale exodus from the Middle East and North Africa to Europe.

A similar fate was also prepared for Syria. The combat operations conducted by the Western coalition in that country without the Syrian government’s approval or UN Security Council’s sanction can only be defined as aggression and intervention.

But the example that stands apart from the above events is, of course, the invasion of Iraq without any legal grounds. They used the pretext of allegedly reliable information available in the United States about the presence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. To prove that allegation, the US Secretary of State held up a vial with white power, publicly, for the whole world to see, assuring the international community that it was a chemical warfare agent created in Iraq. It later turned out that all of that was a fake and a sham, and that Iraq did not have any chemical weapons. Incredible and shocking but true. We witnessed lies made at the highest state level and voiced from the high UN rostrum. As a result we see a tremendous loss in human life, damage, destruction, and a colossal upsurge of terrorism.

Overall, it appears that nearly everywhere, in many regions of the world where the United States brought its law and order, this created bloody, non-healing wounds and the curse of international terrorism and extremism. I have only mentioned the most glaring but far from only examples of disregard for international law.

This array includes promises not to expand NATO eastwards even by an inch. To reiterate: they have deceived us, or, to put it simply, they have played us. Sure, one often hears that politics is a dirty business. It could be, but it shouldn’t be as dirty as it is now, not to such an extent. This type of con-artist behaviour is contrary not only to the principles of international relations but also and above all to the generally accepted norms of morality and ethics. Where is justice and truth here? Just lies and hypocrisy all around.

Incidentally, US politicians, political scientists and journalists write and say that a veritable “empire of lies” has been created inside the United States in recent years. It is hard to disagree with this – it is really so. But one should not be modest about it: the United States is still a great country and a system-forming power. All its satellites not only humbly and obediently say yes to and parrot it at the slightest pretext but also imitate its behaviour and enthusiastically accept the rules it is offering them. Therefore, one can say with good reason and confidence that the whole so-called Western bloc formed by the United States in its own image and likeness is, in its entirety, the very same “empire of lies.”

As for our country, after the disintegration of the USSR, given the entire unprecedented openness of the new, modern Russia, its readiness to work honestly with the United States and other Western partners, and its practically unilateral disarmament, they immediately tried to put the final squeeze on us, finish us off, and utterly destroy us. This is how it was in the 1990s and the early 2000s, when the so-called collective West was actively supporting separatism and gangs of mercenaries in southern Russia. What victims, what losses we had to sustain and what trials we had to go through at that time before we broke the back of international terrorism in the Caucasus! We remember this and will never forget.

Properly speaking, the attempts to use us in their own interests never ceased until quite recently: they sought to destroy our traditional values and force on us their false values that would erode us, our people from within, the attitudes they have been aggressively imposing on their countries, attitudes that are directly leading to degradation and degeneration, because they are contrary to human nature. This is not going to happen. No one has ever succeeded in doing this, nor will they succeed now.

Despite all that, in December 2021, we made yet another attempt to reach agreement with the United States and its allies on the principles of European security and NATO’s non-expansion. Our efforts were in vain. The United States has not changed its position. It does not believe it necessary to agree with Russia on a matter that is critical for us. The United States is pursuing its own objectives, while neglecting our interests.

Of course, this situation begs a question: what next, what are we to expect? If history is any guide, we know that in 1940 and early 1941 the Soviet Union went to great lengths to prevent war or at least delay its outbreak. To this end, the USSR sought not to provoke the potential aggressor until the very end by refraining or postponing the most urgent and obvious preparations it had to make to defend itself from an imminent attack. When it finally acted, it was too late.

Day Z: situation at 18.00

� Russian units took control of Konotop and Baturin. The further goal is the capture of Poltava and the splitting of the northwestern grouping of the Armed Forces of Ukraine into two parts.

� In the Chernihiv region, advanced columns entered the village of Semyonovka. In the Kiev region, eyewitnesses filmed a Ka-52 flying over Mezhyhirya, the residence of former Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych. Russian helicopters use roads in Belarus to take off.

� According to foriegn journalists, units of the Russian Airborne Forces have established control over the Antonov airport, 25 km west of Kiev.

�The units of the Russian Armed Forces also occupied the village of Oleshki, went over the bridge across the Dnieper and came close to Kherson. In the Sumy region , fighting is going on in the countryside. Engineers unblocked the Kakhovka hydroelectric complex, ending the water blockade of Crimea.

� The Ukrainian border service reports the second attempt of the day to seize the island of Serpents. Local media also talk about battles in the Chernobyl exclusion zone, which are difficult to confirm due to the low population density of the area.

� In Norway and other European oldies , electricity prices are expected to rise due to events in Ukraine.

�Biden convened the National Security Council to discuss the situation in Ukraine. So far, no one is seeking to provide real support to Kiev.

This is the Georgia 2.0 I was lecturing one(sanpipita) anglozoo wanabe fanboy on here https://www.nairaland.com/6989076/russia-finally-invades-ukraine-fires#110278149 What it means - This will give Russia the power to send in peacekeepers. All the leaders in Donbass have to do is write a letter asking Russia for help. Lobtan! Conflict will remain frozen as the Anglozionist empire cannot afford to even lose half of Ukraine's pie.

OP: It's not to recognise anymore. Russia has officially recognised Donbass, republic of Lugansk and Donestk as sovereign nations.

sanpipita:



Look at how you are supporting illegal annexing of Ukraine territories, if Biafra decides to to declare Independence today what will be your reaction? some of you are just hypocrites, Russia wants to control Ukraine at all costs and you see nothing wrong with it.

You, people, need a lot of lessons.
What happened during BIAFRA? Do you want to revisit history?
Do you know the meaning of a sovereign state?

Ukraine lost its sovereign state after a coup was done in 2014. It is only normal what Donbas is seeking/. Go to any international court with Jurisdiction, Donbas will win 100%.

Let us revisit a brief history.

The first coup in Nigeria was done by who? The Igbos. ( I bet they were being used here for the sole reason). It's normal in anglo(Now Zionist) Saxon foreign policy of putting together different races that they know are not compatible. They also use each of them against the other to destroy conquer and re-rule whenever needed.

The first person to openly publicly declare an Autonomous state in Nigeria was Isaac Boro.
For declaring Niger-Delta Republic Ironsi, the then military head of state ordered Ojukwu to get Isaac Boro arrested for treason.

They put him in jail. Guess what happened when Gowon released the guy Ojwkuku put in Jail for committing treason. He released him and both of them formed a coalition just when Ojukwu went to declare another autonomous state BIAFRA which even included all the territories the first person, Isaac Boro that committed treason did.

What happened after all? They combined forces to defeat Ojukwu forces and even when Gowon got tired of western hypocrisy. Do you know where he finally went to get weapons? Russia.

NATO
First of all, NATO automatically means you are losing your sovereignty, pure and simple. This is the same reason Nigeria said a big no to AFRICOM. After just what the Anglozionist did with Ghana during Jerry's Rowlings, the same thing they did with Ukraine in 2014. (Regime change)
Ghana has since sold landmass for AFRICOM base just when Yaradua/Nigeria said big no. They know for sure that a NO from Nigeria, AFRICOM in West Africa won't be possible. So what did they start with? Boko haram. Another kind of proxy forces to get what they want. Does anyone remember when GEJ sent American boots on the ground out of Nigeria? They lost already in trying to get that base.

Now let me point to the same era of what is happening in the Donbas now. When the west killed Abacha and also killed Abiola. They cleaned the way. Installed Abdul Salami. Then Abudu Salami hand over to another western puppet OBJ.(the one they have used before after they killed Muritala)

This is the carbon copy of Ukraine. Now imagine if the west of Nigeria decided they want to use that killing of Abiola to form their Autonomous state. This is what happened or took place in Ukraine.


Now let me tell you this fact. At the time, there was nothing like NATO or even AFRICOM in the whole of western Africa. There was no threat to the territorial integrity of Nigeria like there is now NATO threat.

YOU KIDS DON'T KNOW THE MEANING OF NATO.

It means you lost your sovereign state, you are a puppet state and have no control over your National army because it's now foreign infiltrated. Get a lesson, please. It's very impòrtant.


Ukraine is the case of a NATO encroaching Russian borders. Even removed a democratically elected president in 2014 to install a full-blown puppet and then decided to drag Ukraine into NATO. This is what they have done to all the puppet states in NATO and Russia is now saying enough is enough.

So don't you ever compare two incomparable. When the west removed a democratically elected president, they probably forgot they are not dealing with their usual African countries. You are dealing with highly educated and smart people. Nigeria is even smarter than all the countries in NATO combined. There is no foreign boots on the ground in Nigeria. The foreign boots Boko haram are being killed everyday.

sanpipita:

As for war Russia has been caged, they either attack or shame on them, USA and NATO will brush them in a way they won't imagine

How old are you? You type here like a 16-year old that needs a lot of lessons. Well, I have just given you a lot of lessons above. NATO is outdated and it's not even about Russia, it's more about keeping those fools in Europe suppressed economically. Like Germany and many others. Russia has won three times against the united front and lost just once. By that I am not saying Russia under USSR oh. Russia only. Then it was called Russian empire.

Just be informed. By the way, have you emailed your scan copy to the hospital for check-up?
You should do and thank me later.

[s]

sanpipita:


Absolute nonsense, Russia were planning to invade Ukraine till USA and their allies gave them serious warning, if this narrative is what you people want to use and save face better find something better, many countries were evacuating their embassies and you think they did it for fun?

[/s]

Did anyone remember Iraq 45 minutes Chemical weapon attack?
What happened to Iraq last?

Again, pls just remove your brain. Russia is just too wise. Let me update you on what Russia did, probably stopped the U.S false flag attack.

Russia has decided to let the DUMA vote to recognize Lugansk and Donestk as Autonomous state since Ukraine and the puppet master has given up all hopes in following the Minks accord. This has already passed DUMA and sent to the President of Russia for final signing it into law then it's over. It becomes official. Georgia 2.0. This will give Russia the power to send in peacekeepers.

You want to bamber? You want to chill with the big boiz? (Na you dey run kiti kiti. You dey run kata kata.. No fit drink water drop cup) Oya Anglozionist should play their false Flag attack. Let's see if Putin will not use B speed in signing it into law.

You all are not just smart at all. You are too low in everything. IQ, name it. Biden should not even compete with the primary 1 pupil standard in Russia. It's just too poor. Too sad. OMG.. Please do again as OP said.

Now, you will need to scan a piece of your brain and email it to the nearest hospital for close examination. Again foolishness knows no boundary at all.

sanpipita:
Story has gone from Russia can dare USA and their allies to USA is baiting Russia to war, who started amassing troops first? the troops Russia gathered what was it for? lol Western media is useless wait till you see what Russian media can do, some of you just have strongman syndrome funny you think Putin cares about you

[/s]

Just like the first Op adviced, have you gone for a brain test? if you can't go for one please just look for a nail, strike it on that head, remove a piece from your brain and have it mailed to the nearest hospital.

Do you know what is Military drill? This happens every year with Russian military.

When NATO did the same drill on the black sea and was mimicking how they will nuke Russia. Russia did not make a fuse out of it. When Russia did its drill. The West got too scared that they needed to scare all of their dummies too and many too fell. Now no one has any explanation for the media Buhara

RisenJoe:


I think it's all about full invasion and occupation just like they did in Crimea, but the citizens will resist it and the whole situation is likely to end in guerilla warfare and even Russian federation is not safe cos embittered Ukrainians might resort to suicide bombing inside Russia.

Wtf

Russia simply reunified the Crimeans back into Russian territory. Now listen to this history very well and understand how the Crimean peninsula is tied to Russia.

The last time Russia lost a war in the Crimean Penisular was when the United FRONT(what you could call NATO then), I.e the combination of Turkey(Ottoman Empire), Napoleon France, and anglo saxon Britain formed a coalition and they attacked the Crimean peninsula and that war was lost by Russia. See what then took place after the war.

The Bolsheviks (Zionist entity) then used Russia's losing Crimean peninsular as a pretext to launch a regime change, then they called it the Bolshevik revolution.

This is the same thing the anglozionist empire did in Ukraine in 2014. They later turned Russia into USSR and they started invading and adding more soviet administrative states. (That is a zionist ideology but not necessarily Russian). It was during the same USSR, the Crimean peninsula was illegally transferred to Ukraine soviet. So what you have today, is Russia back into the good old days before it lost a war with the united front. In reality, Russia has won three times against in United front. So try to understand the moves Russia is taking before you judge Russia. They know the threat NATO poses. If the U.S and the zionist crooks did not do a regime change in Ukraine in 2014. Crimea would 100% still belong to Ukraine.

Fast forward to what happened in 2014. The reunification of Crimean Penisular to her parent country Russia. Now Russia is playing the buffer zone game which is making sure today's united FRONT(NATO) does not pose any threat to the Russian Territory.

How can you occupy what is yours? The western propaganda media never make mention of the Russian fleet in Crimean ever since the peninsular was won back from the era it lost to the United front then(Ottoman Turkey, Napoleonic France, and Anglo Saxon empire) Since that era that I told you, the Russian fleet has been present in Crimean Penisular.

Svlla:
What would Ukraine gain from joining NATO and provoking Russia, it just doesn't make sense anymore. Ukrainian leadership should think about their people's security first.
Russia is not backing down on this and most NATO allies knows and even the US know they won't be of much help if Russia invades Ukraine.

On the other hand Russian invasion will not profit Russia or Ukraine like Sun Tzu said 'war is an instrument of ill omen' nothing good comes out of war unless unless you're selling arms to those fighting (not being involved) which will be US gain.

France and Germany doesn't want this war, the Baltic nations don't want it too, even Russia and Russian neighbors. Currently Europe is holding its breath.

Ukrainian leadership should employ wisdom

The war is majorly needed by the U.S.A which is thousand of kilometres away causing trouble for Europeans. This is the Economics of it. There is an old pipeline Russia uses to supply gas via Ukraine to Europe. Germany has decided to boycott that pipeline by building a new one called NORD 2 stream. This will increase gas supply into Europe by about 15% more. Russia is already supplying over a 17billion cubic meters into Europe.

The Vested Interest here is Ukraine will lose the transit fees it gets every year by the time Nord 2 stream is operational. The U.S.A sells gas at a high price cos of its Shale gas not being viable and even supplying to Asia where the price is higher. Squeezing supply into Europe or to Germany will keep the gas price high to meet U.S standards.

So you can understand how the U.S and Ukraine's interest is to make sure gas supply to Europe does not increase one inch via NORD 2 stream. This is what you explained right there, Germany does not want any war, even Europe but the main trouble maker, the de facto leader of the anglozionist empire, the U.S.A.

To me, Ukraine is just being used and they are stupid. You are shouting you hate Russia, then you are still scared or want by forcing Russia to continue using your dilapidated gas pipeline that Ukraine does not maintain. Russia says they cannot pump more pressure to deliver gas via the Ukraine pipeline cos of Ukraine not maintaining it. yet, Ukraine shares a vested interest with the U.S.A. Which is doing everything it can to make sure Germany(U.S competitor) is suppressed. Yes, Ukraine should employ wisdom. The only one I see is Ukraine restoring its relations with Russia. Over the dead body of U.S.A that will ever happen. The puppet in Kiev will be changed the following day if he even ever tries to talk to Russia without the go ahead of the empire.

dnawah:
why Russia was helping the Donesky to leave ukraine?

If you read everything I have written above. You will understand why Russia is making any move it makes. Russia is attending to the Donbas which also kinda has a very good history with Russia but is not as tied as Crimean. Russia is doing the same thing it did with Georgia in 2008 with the Donbas. When NATO tried the nonsense they are doing in Ukraine now with a smaller country Georgia in 2008. Russia played the Georgian Card.

Try to understand why by reading my first answer above and understand where Russia is coming from.

What is the Georgian Card?

To join NATO, that country must not have any territorial infighting. Meaning the whole country must be a whole unit. The moment South Ossetia and Abkhazia decided to be on their own, NATO understood that and when Russian peacekeepers were sent into that territory, Mikheil Saakashvili(The westernmost favorite puppet) started bombing Russian peacekeepers. This led to a war that ended within 3days.

So Russia is playing the same Georgian Card in Ukraine. Now openly publicly declaring that NATO should sign an agreement that will be internationally binding that they will not move further Ukraine and Georgia redlines. Russia knows 100% U.S cannot afford to do that because her Interest is not even that. So you see the Donbas card Russia is playing.

OmegaAutos:
[s]Russia is just being a bully, why attack a sovereign state base on its choice of association, what happens to diplomacy and negotiation. joining NATO doesnt mean they have agenda to attack Russia. It may be for economic gain of Ukraine. Why force someone to be your friend. Putin is a bully[/s]

You do not know the meaning of the word Bully. Bully are those who come to your territory using all kinds of war to get what they want. They have done it severally with all the USSR soviet states they lost. They have managed to re-convert all the previous Zionist entity states in USSR. Now forming NATO. And a country Russia says, enough is enough. Who is the bully here?
Go to the Black sea. All of the countries there are already dragged(just the same way they have bullied Ukraine and trying to drag them into the same NATO). Only Ukraine is not in NATO. Here you will also understand why Russia had to reunify the Crimean peninsular via a democratically elected vote. Is this what you call Bully?

When Britain that is over 10,000km did a referendum in Falkland Islands that is just a few Km from Argentina. The people of the Island voted to be under British. That was okay. But when Crimeans did the same Referendum which they had 100% rights to after the fall of the USSR. Then you called that Russian invasion?

Please get some brain. We are not kids.

All the glorious wannabe defenders of the Independent Ukraine are all on the run. Literally. Rumors include that airlines are not insured to fly in Ukie airspace, over 30 oligarchs have already evacuated in their private jets, western embassies are running from Kiev to Lvov, the media publishes invasion maps almost every day, western officials seems to think that the invasion is for tomorrow or Wednesday, folks from the OSCE and World Bank are evacuating too, the Ukies are training their civilians on how to pack for a shelter and how to shoot a wooden Kalashnikov, etc. etc. etc. I won’t list all the grotesque nonsense the Zone A media is full of – you can look it up yourself.

I also have A LOT of catching up to do, which is not made easier by one of my kids testing positive for COVID, (but in mild presentation, thank God). So just a few bullet points from me right now:

Considering all the hype, and considering that there are still exactly zero signs of any special Russian military activity (except in the Far East where the Russian Navy had to kick out a Virginia class SSN out of Russian waters, the Yanks left at flank speed) there is a lot of people which will look very very stupid by Thursday morning we all wake up to humongous… …nothing. Which in plain English means that the Anglos are now truly desperate for a provocation at/near the LDNR (or even Russia proper). I think that it is prudent and logical to assume that the Anglos will come up with something in the next 48 hours.

As predicted, nobody in the West wants to die for Banderastan. So we can assume that Lvov will become the temporary imperial command post for the Ukraine for at least the foreseeable future.
Since western IT giants work hand in hand with Uncle Shmuel, we also should assume that once the provocation is executed, wild and totally contradictory rumors will immediately be spread, deliberately or by the many legions of armchair generals who think they understand modern warfare.

In very sharp contrast to the US/NATO/EU and their hysterics and generalized infighting, the Russians seems to be very calm and determined. There are signs that the Russian Duma will ask the Kremlin to recognize and/or seriously arm the LDNR in the near future.

Lavorv has officially categorically rejected the US reply and sent one last clarification to all the western governments/ Lavrov and Putin agreed that that there is “still is a last chance left for a negotiated solution” and they have sent an important written text, 10 pages, to their western counterparts. But they also made it clear that if “Biden” is just running down the clock then Russia will take action.

By the tone of the announcement, this is probably the very last effort the Kremlin will make to try to avoid a catastrophe in the Ukraine unless, of course, folks in the West get serious and quickly engage in meaningful discussions about Russia’s “red lines”.
Defense Minister Shoigu has announced that the Russian military exercises were partially completed and will continue to wind down over the coming days.
The German Chancellor is coming to Moscow tomorrow.
That’s it for me for right now.

Let’s see what happens next.

PS: just to refresh your memory, here are a few good ones:

IamV:
But come to think of it,assuming that Russia is really going to invade Ukraine, what about UK and US previous commitment to protect Ukraine ?
Someone should educate me,because I don't understand why they should be withdrawing thier troops at this point in time,when Ukraine needed them more.

You need to understand what is going on or has been going on since the 2014 coup in Kiev. There is a Pipeline that Russia runs via Ukraine to west Europe. This pipeline is old, dilapidated due to Ukraine not taking good care of it. Germany has boycotted the pipeline by building a new one called Nord stream 2 that will pass through the Baltics state from Russia to Germany.

What you are seeing now is Obama 2.0 strategy. What does it entail? Obama was bombing those states in Donbas and was hoping Russia will openly defend them and then sanctions follow. Russia restrained a lot and did not do what Obama wanted Russia to do. Despite that, they still put all the blames on Russia and manage to get their puppet honey for sanction via the MH17 false flag.

Fast forward to Trump. Trump did not do it the Obama way. He sanctioned the companies involved in Nordstream 2. Now that the vice of Obama has become president. They are now hoping to continue the Obama strategy with the hope of getting the same result. Gather the needed energy for all the puppets in Brussels to sanction Nord Stream 2 pipeline. This is why they are beating the drums of war.

The stupid west is serving in Putin court again and Russia is using the moment again as usual to its advantage. Guarantees that NATO will not move an inch and Ukraine, Georgia will not join NATO. For sure Russia knows the west won't accept this and even if they did, they will break it. So Putin is making the whole idea clear. Russia won't compromise.

What the U.S hopes to get is to shut down Nord 2 stream. What else could lead to a miscalculation and then direct hot war?
The UK withdrawing troops may be distancing itself from the conflict which is solely the U.S and its puppet state media propaganda campaign. It may also be part of the plan, sending a mix of messages of the kind of false flag operation they are cooking.

Even the Puppet president of Ukraine is tackling the information war. Saying he has no information about Russia invading Ukraine and that the Puppet master should reduce the volume of war as it's affecting the Ukrainian economy.
They are planning what Russia calls provocation.
Let's wait and see.You need to understand what is going on or has been going on since the 2014 coup in Kiev. There is a Pipeline that Russia runs via Ukraine to Europe. This pipeline is old, dilapidated due to Ukraine not taking good care of it. Germany has boycotted the pipeline by building a new one called Nord stream 2 that will pass through the Baltics state from Russia to Germany.

Let's wait and see.

by Dr. Leon Tressell


Let’s be clear about this: Russia is NOT going to invade Ukraine. A cursory study of the history of Ukraine since 2014 reveals how restrained Russia has been in the face of repeated provocations by the Kiev Junta and its American sponsor.

Since 2014 Presidents Poroshenko and Zelenko, both of whom represent the billionaire oligarchs who control Ukraine, have steadfastly refused to implement the Minsk 1 and Minsk 2 Peace Accords. Instead both Presidents have launched “anti terrorist” operations against the Russian speakers of the Donbass region leading to over 10,000 deaths.

The Kiev junta, of which Poroshenko and Zelenko are the spokesmen, have consistently begged, cajoled and demanded that the West get involved in their attempt to provoke a war with Russia. Their pipe dream being that if US/NATO get involved in the conflict then the Russian speaking regions of Donbass, now 2 separate republics of Donetsk and Lugansk together with the Crimea, which is now part of Russia, can somehow be brought back into the borders of Ukraine. An absolute pipe dream.

It should be added that during the battles of 2014-2015 the Ukraine armed forces were decisively beaten by the militias of Donetsk and Lugansk. These defeats culminated with the decisive and crushing defeat of the Ukrainian Armed Forces at the battle of Debaltsevo in February 2015. Since then the Kiev Junta, which has deployed neo-Nazi military units such as the Azhov battalion on the front lines along with regular Ukrainian troops, has consistently demanded that the US and NATO get involved in this conflict.

Those people going along with the sabre rattling war hysteria have got to ask themselves: is the United States really going to provoke a war with Russia, whose armed forces would convincingly win any conventional conflict with NATO?

In February 2016 the RAND corporation in collaboration withe US military issued a report that concluded that: “The [war] games findings are unambiguous. As currently postured NATO cannot successfully defend the territory of its most exposed members.”

The Biden regime is ratcheting up tensions with Russia and trying to whip up war hysteria as a diversion for the public away from their dire social and economic problems.

Record high inflation is the number one concern of ordinary Americans and Biden is terrified that the Democrats will get crushed in the midterm elections this year.

This whole manufactured crisis is pure political theatre in an effort to intensify Cold War 2.0 to whip up fear and nationalist feeling amongst the population of NATO countries. Throughout history from time immemorial, the ruling classes have used war hysteria to divert the attention of populations from their pressing social and economic problems. This time is no different.

Belarusian-style “housecleaning” in Kazakhstan has already begun!

Last, but not least, it will take decades to de-Nazify the Ukraine, and God only knows who will be willing and capable of doing that (certainly NOT Russia!) whereas Kazakhstan’s insurgents are already being killed, in large numbers, by Kazakh security forces. As for the Kazakh oligarchs and officials who assisted them, they are either dead, or in jail or already abroad.

Did I mention China? It is a very important actor in Kazakhstan. On one level, China and Russia are economic and even political competitors in Kazakhstan, however China absolutely and categorically cannot allow Kazakhstan to be taken over by either the US/NATO, or the Takfiris or the pan-Turkists. The Chinese have not flexed their military muscle (yet), but they could, and you can rest assured that they will flex with (immense) economic muscle to prevent such an outcome. So while the poor Ukraine has Poland as a neighbor, Kazakhstan has both Russia and China which are absolutely determined not to allow any hostile force (anti-Chinese or anti-Russian, these are the same forces) to color-revolutionize Kazakhstan and turn it into the kind of nightmarish shithole the Empire turned so many countries in to, from the US-occupied EU to the Nazi-occupied Ukraine (before eventually losing them anyway!).

The bottom line about the Ukraine is this: let’s wait and see what kind of chickens the Ukie eggs will hatch and whether the eventual outcome will be worse or better for Russia. And, by “outcome” I do not refer to the roaring statements coming from western politicians and the talking heads on the idiot box, I mean actual outcomes, which in such matters can take months or even years before becoming fully apparent. (I know, those dead set on the “Putin is weak” thing will ignore my advice or any facts or logic, I am mostly addressing these suggestion to those who hear that narrative and want to figure out for themselves whether it is true or false).

Conclusion:

What just happened in Kazakhstan was both a full-scale insurrection AND an attempted coup. There is overwhelming evidence that the Russians were aware of what was coming and allowed the chaos to get just bad enough to give only one possible option to Tokaev: to appeal for an CSTO intervention. The extreme swiftness of the Russian military operation took everybody be surprise and none of the parties involved in that insurrection+coup (the US, the Takfiris and the Turks) had any time to react to prevent the quick deployment of (extremely) combat-capable forces which then made it possible for the Kazakh military and security forces to regroup and go on the offensive. Having Pashinian “order” this CTOS operation was beautiful, karmic, cherry on the cake �

Of sure, the AngloZionist propaganda machine and the clueless trolls (paid or not) who parrot that nonsense won’t say a word about all this, but just use your own common sense, use the “before and after” thing, and make your own conclusions.


Joint briefing by the commander of the collective peacekeeping forces of the CSTO in the Republic of Kazakhstan, Colonel General Andrei Serdyukov, Commander of the Russian Airborne Forces, and Deputy Minister of Defense of the Republic of Kazakhstan, Lieutenant General Sultan Gamaletdinov.

Speaking of conclusions: how about all those who bitched about the CTOS being a toothless wannabe copy of NATO which can get nothing done? You still find it so toothless now?

How does it compare to NATO, no, not on paper, but in terms of combat operations capability?

The West wanted to turn Kazakhstan into a “Russian Afghanistan” (same plan for the Ukraine, by the way). Turkey wanted to turn Kazakhstan into a Turkish run vassal state. The Takfiris wanted to turn Kazakhstan into some kind of Emirate.

In your opinion, how do you evaluate the effectiveness of a collective security treaty which could foil all of these plans with only a brigade-sized force and in just a few days?

One more thing: there is something else which Kazakhstan and Syria have in common: there were A LOT of CIA/MI6/Mossad/etc agents around Assad, this became quite clear by the number of high level Syrian officials who either backed the insurrection, or even lead it. Most later fled to the West, some were killed. But the point is that the “apple” of the powers structure in Syria was quite rotten. The same can be said for Kazakhstan were a huge purge is taking place, with the head of the security services not only demoted, but arrested for treason!

So in plain English, the SVR/FSB/GRU now have a free hand to “clean house” the same way the Russians “cleaned house” around Lukashenko and Assad (in this case with Iranian help): quietly and very effectively,

Again, I can hear the hysterical and desperate wailing out of Langley and Mons. That what you get for believing your own stupid propaganda!

As for those who bought that silly “Putin losing countries all over the former Soviet Union space” PSYOP narrative, they probably feel quite stupid right now, but won’t ever admit it. Speaking of stupid,

No, Putin is NOT, repeat, NOT trying to “re-create” the Soviet Union.

And while that mediocre non-entity Bliken warns about how the Russians are hard to get out once they come in (coming from a US Secretary of State this is both quite hilarious and a new, even higher, level of absolute hypocrisy!), the truth is that most CSTO force will leave pretty soon, if only because there will be no need to keep them in Kazakhstan. Why? Simple: the hardcore trained terrorist and insurgents will soon be dead, the looting rioters will get off the streets and hope that they don’t get a visit from the Kazakh SSC (State Security Committee), the traitors in power will either leave the country for the EU or be jailed and the Kazakh security and military forces will regain control of the country and maintain law and order. Why would the Russian paratroopers and special forces need to stay?

Furthermore, Russia has no need, or desire, to invade or, even less so, administer poor, mostly dysfunctional countries, with major social problems and very little actual benefits to offer Russia. And now that Lukashenko, Pashinian and Tokaev know that the serve at the pleasure of the Kremlin, you can rest assured that they will generally “behave”. Oh sure, they will remain mostly corrupt states, with nepotism, tribal affiliation and religious extremism all brewing at some level, but as long as they represent no threat to a) the Russian minority in these states and 2) to Russian national security interests, the Kremlin will not micro-manage them. But at the first sign of a resurgence of “multi-vectoriality” (possibly inspired by western corporations working in Kazakhstan) the chairs upon which these leaders currently sit will immediately begin shaking pretty badly and they will know whom to call to stop this.

Speaking of weak “idiots” who “lost” countries to the Empire, does anybody care to make a list of countries the Empire as ACTUALLY snatched away from Russia (or any other adversary) and succeeded in keeping? Syria? Libya? Afghanistan? Iraq maybe? Yemen? And that is after the “Mission Accomplished” declaration by a “triumphant” US President �

Ah, I can hear the voices chanting “the Ukraine! What about the Ukraine!?”. Well, what about the Ukraine?

There is a Russian saying (цыплят по осени считают) which can be roughly translated as “do not count your chickens before they are hatched“. Right now, NOBODY can confidently predict what will happen with the Ukraine further down the road. Not only has the Ukraine become a country 404 deindustrialized shithole, it now is run by an entire class (in the Marxist sense) of Nazis whom, apparently, nobody has the will or the ability to de-Nazify (Russia could, but has exactly zero motive to do so, as for the US/NATO, LOL!!). Even if Russia and the US agree to some kind of neutral status for the Ukraine, this will not remove a single Nazi from power and, if anything, will create the conditions for an even bigger breakup of the country (which is what I think will eventually happen anyway, but very slowly and very very painfully).

The one thing which the Ukraine does have in common with Kazakhstan is that these are both invented countries created by the rabidly russophobic Bolsheviks: not only are their current borders meaningless (and I mean totally completely meaningless), but these borders bring under one totally artificial political “roof” completely different regions and ethnic groups. The big difference is, of course, that the Ukie leaders, all of them, were, and still are, infinitely worse than either Nazarbaev or Tokaev ever were. Also, Ukie nationalism is the most hate filled and demented on the planet, they can only be compared with the Hutu Interahamwe in Rwanda. Yes, there is definitely a nationalist streak in the Kazakh society (lovingly nourished and fed by the West for decades), but in comparison with the Ukronazis, these are soft spoken and mostly mentally sane humanitarians. In my personal, and therefore admittedly subjective, experience, Kazakhs and Russians get along much better than Ukrainians and Russians.
