Oga, the news got to do with their horrible hot weather.

India stepped in as a supplier of wheat to countries that used to buy wheat from Russia and Ukraine. Hot weather reduces the yield of wheat.

I am very happy about the love that Nairalanders have for Nairaland, which is why we often receive suggestions about how to make it better.

If it is true that we have become slow to share news updates, we need to change that. We should also strengthen our enforcement of rules.

Interesting!

motymop:
I hope you guys know that this is War propaganda

What is stopping Russia from denying this and showing some evidence?

Congratulations. Your N40m didn't catch fire.

Before you make hasty statements!!

Just days ago, two Russian oligarchs - one in Spain and one in Russia, were brutally killed along with their wives and children. If you were living under the dictator who is ordered those killings and many others, and a stranger called you up.to ask you whether or not you support the dictator, what would you say? You would either decline to comment or say that you support him. So in addition to being brainwashed and misinformed, Russians are afraid to criticise their government.

Not to mention the fact that Putin has made himself the only option by neutralising every person who is getting popular by having them poisoned, brutally murdered, or arrested, tortured, and jailed. The people of Russia kind of have to be satisfied with Putin because there's no alternative. All the alternatives have been removed before they gained sufficient momentum.

Are you describing Your location or Nigeria ? Are you living in a getto ?
People like you will never see any good about Nigeria, imagine what you are telling a foreigner about your country.

This was 2006, 16 years ago, 1 year after I started Nairaland. You may not have been born at that time.

To the bolder Mr Seun, I think this is the exact same thing you're accusing the Russian media's of. No?
These are the "saints" that scream war criminals. If anyone should be screaming war crime, it should be everyone but westerners. Honestly

In case you haven't noticed, the article that exposed the issues that you are complaining about was written by the same "western media". There is no question that war crimes took place at Iraq under GW Bush & Cheney. The "western media" you cry about has exposed them.

Mangekyo: If believing the consensus of the free International press makes me stupid, then I'm proud to be stupid. There are billions of us.

The Palestinians always fall for Israel's provocations such as the repeated invasion of the Al Aqsa mosque in recent days. Isreal's PM is a b--.

EmzyT:
The way the world hates Putin Right now ehn, If she fly go another country, na her dead body fit come back to Russia oo

In a civilised western country, she's more likely to be arrested and interrogated and to have her assets seized.

midosky:
The safest place for her is Russia

She won't be safe when Putin's failures lead to a violent revolution or a coup within Russia.

Baba Seun, did you just say this? Burning of the Quaran actually incites terrorism. With this act by a politician, an extremist is born somewhere in Sweden. Did the Charlie cartoons in France identify French terrorists or give French muslims reasons to be terrorists? Think again, this statement is too insensitive coming from you.

Anybody who thinks it's right to resort to violence over a book burning is a potential terrorist. Christians wouldn't resort to violence if a bible was burned. Atheists wouldn't resort to violence if a copy of "The God Delusion" was burned. Even Muslims, most of them, wouldn't resort to violence over the burning of a book. Most muslims would protest peacefully, which is alright. Those who resort to violence are terrorists.

MangekyoAlt:
You keep repeating and even copying and pasting propaganda from CNN, BBC and the likes..... Let me ask you since you claim the average Russian is brainwashed by the Russian govt by their "state run" media's.

CNN and Fox News are lying. BBC of UK is lying. DW of Germany is lying. WION of India is lying. Wikipedia is lying. All European countries are lying. Canada is lying. Japan, South Korea, and all civilized democratic nations are lying. The only people telling the truth are the murderous dictator Vladimir Putin who said he wouldn't invade Ukraine and invaded them anyway, and the people he pays to lie on his behalf. Right?

Do you think western media's also don't ditch out propaganda? Please this is a genuine question. I eagerly await your response to that honest question.

The difference between Russian media and the free media in civilised countries is that free media is free to criticise the government. They are free to make fun of Joe Biden. They are free to call him a liar if he lies. Fox News channel is free to attack Joe Biden just as CNN was free to attack Donald Trump. But in Russia, China and other dictatorships, people can be arrested, tortured, jailed and killed for criticising the dictator. If what Russian mainstream media is saying is true, there is no law or force in the West that's stopping "western media" from reporting on those things. The reason why nobody takes Russian state media seriously is because they keep telling obvious lies, like saying that there's no war in Ukraine.

Here is a Russian journalist who knows the truth. Listen to her:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iowx9WfrM0k

If the entire world says that the earth is round and they have videos and photos to prove it, and one person says that it's flat, who do you believe? If free media of the entire "West" has the same basic understanding of what's going on and Russia's own is different, Russia is lying.

Whether or not this act was right, it provides an opportunity to identify the potential terrorists in the country so that they can be monitored.

DerrickzB:
I wonder how some of you know the Russians aren’t happy with Putin when you haven’t gone to Russia and studies the people and how they live their lives, you haven’t carried out a survey on Russian soil, no study of their cultural heritage, you just talk out of your emotions bros… Try rest!!!

The Russian people have been brainwashed by their govt. All TV stations in Russia are owned and controlled by the state. The Internet is also censored because they use a search engine whose results are tampered with. So they don't have access to unbiased information about Putin. Nevertheless, a large fraction of their youths have been able to find the truth through social media and they don't support Putin's War. It is true that Russians have a high tolerance for hardships imposed on them by their leaders. I think the west underestimates this.

All Russian and Belorussian players have been banned from contesting at their next Wimbledon tournament. All.

This includes top players like Aryna Sabalenka and Victoria Sabalenka, who are from Belarus, not Russia. I feel bad for them because they didn't choose their leader and they didn't have a say in the decision made by Putin to invade Russia. Extending the ban to Belorussians seems mean.

I believe that even Russian players like Daria Kasatkina and Danil Medvedev should be allowed to play if they are bold enough to express support for Ukraine and speak against the evil dictator Vladimir Putin's genocidal rape and killing of thousands of innocent Ukrainian civilians.

The war is against the Putin regime, and our message to Russians should be for them to find a way to get rid of Putin and exit from Ukraine.

Hasn't this show ended?

NoFucksToGive:
Seun

Again let me reiterate, LeoDeKing and Helinues are your major problems on this forum regarding tribalism, multiple acocunt usage, tribal hate, tribal clashes and hate speech.

Look no further than LeoDeKing and Helinues.. don't take my word for it... Just browse Thier chat history as far back as a month and you will be absolutely horrified at how brazenly they propagate hate speech on this forum.

It's a ripple effect sir.. these memners spawn more like minded people who are just as negative and disruptive hence the situation we have now where virtually every thread is filled with tribal bashing an no sane discourse is to be found anymore.

Stop these two accounts and watch their other acoxunts get exposed.

Cheers sir

Noted.

This error has opened my eyes to what we can do to stop the nonsense.

The school is to blame.

Trying to fix the problem.

Has it recently changed for you?

Who are the ones supplying them with food? More so, they also have landlords. People should expose these criminals and then, the various efforts of the government will be effectively complemented and we will see the results.

The government has to demonstrate that it has the capacity to protect the people who expose the bandits from facing brutal retaliation.

kingthreat:
90% of ethnic Russians in Russia and in the Baltics are in support of the special military operation in Ukraine.

1) Those who support the special military operation have been brainwashed by state media.
2) Those who are against it are under-reported in polls because it is not safe for them to express their opinions.
3) Despite the above, I suspect that you won't be able to produce a source to back up your claim of 90% support.

Drenimarcus:
You letting your emotions speak brother. Did you know how this all started? When Azov were killing Russian speaking people in Donbas since 2014? Might wanna read why this war started.

I've read this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_in_Donbas; I can't find any reference to your claim about Azov killing Russian speaking people.

Putin is the evil one for attempting to protect his country's interests and security, as all world power countries will do

Vladimir Putin only strives to protect the interests and security of Vladimir Putin. When he was picked by Boris Yeltsin, he used his secret service to bomb apartment buildings within Russia, killing hundreds of Russians, and blamed the Chechens for it so he could start a war against them. His success in this war boosted his popularity and allowed him to remain in power. He repeats this cynical gimmick every couple of years.

NATO is the good one for attempting to encircle Russia by expanding east after an agreement not to do so.

We've been hearing about this alleged agreement between NATO and Russia. Can you provide a source and the full text of the agreement?

I feel that western leaders and media haven’t been disciplined enough to distinguish between Vladimir Putin and the people of Russia when they talk about the war in Ukraine and the economic sanctions the West responded with. Despite referring to the war as “Putin’s war” at various points, and occasionally pointing out that their enemy is Putin, rather than the Russian people who are also victims of the Putin regime, many of their statements fail to make the distinction.

Making the distinction is very important because the people of Russia are potential allies in the fight against the Putin regime in Russia. They are the only ones who can end the Putin regime without the risk of being nuked. The west has to make it clear that the sanctions are meant to punish and weaken the Putin regime. It must be made clear that if the Russian people can replace the Putin regime with a more peaceful government, their economic hardships will end. The sanctions will end.

The people of Russia are victims of Vladimir Putin too. He stole their country which was on the path to democracy and now he’s sacrificing the lives of their sons to steal another country. He imprisons, tortures and kills Russians who dare to speak against him. He uses state-owned media to brainwash them. While other countries are focused on building strong economies, the Putin government forces Russians to waste their lives in unnecessary wars that attract painful sanctions.

For instance, I had a business with a user by the name” ambient “ here, it was a case of her not knowing how to operate the tabs she bought but instead of her to learn , she posted my personal details given to her during the transaction and invited poopypants and many buyers who listed my name, account number , phone number and blackmailed me as a scammer on this forum, we all know there are many buyers than sellers here , so whenever you searched my name on google, it’s keep popping up, what happens when I go for interviews, visa or job and they decided to do a research on my name on the internet ? One of them even created a new moniker” Feline7c4 “ just to quoted the post to make sure it remains here forever and that is the only post from him ever since that day, but rather instead of taking down the post that tagged my name , phone number and account details as scammer, the moderator decided to banned me for escalating the matter, the woman with the so called moniker Ambient was not banned for violating the rule that says no one should post other private details on Nairaland .

I think poopypants should be punished for not finding out the truth before tagging me as a scammer, the woman comes to police station to cry, her mother begged me to forgive her only for her to returned here to insult me and everyone who think otherwise, I have being a member on this forum since 2007 , left and came back with this moniker 2 years ago, this is a faceless forum and the moderators need to put more effort without taking sides.
I’m not a scammer , the 2 tabs I sold to her are with her, and she even came here to bragged that’s she’s enjoying the same tabs she blackmailed me over , who is poopypants, is he a moderator? How can I remove the scammer tag on my name here? Do you nairaland have office we can visit ?
