UAE123:
Russia is going to feel the negative effect of it's airstrike on Ukraine more especially in as the years go by and it has indirectly give Ukraine a much bigger voice than it was having before.

LMAO Ukraine is just a Puppet in this 'game'.
Russia has taken over its Nuclear facility, its Airports, its military Posts, where is the "strong Voice" you are talking about?

Russia has been under these illegal Sanctions since when it went to war in Georgia in 2008, l think.
Just like Ukraine, Georgia wanted to join NATO and that was a red line for Russia.
Though today, Russia and Ukraine and on good footing and are friendly neighbours, without joining NATO.

But Russia has not "died", has not gone bankrupt and has even grown stronger, to the chagrin of Western Countries.
These rabid hatred for Russia and Evil Sanctionss will not deter Russia from growing stronger and stronger.
They better "make Peace' with Russia than trying to bully it into submission because just like Israel, it will never submit to the Bullying.

justosee:

They repeated the Buhari mistake made by Nigerians.
Biden is as brain dead and as useless as Buhari.
One thing a nation should avoid is voting a president who is no longer physically and mentally fit.

Whatabout Asiwaju Tinubu?

Trump is just a scallywag who likes to take advantage of the misfortune of others.
I dont attach any ounce of weight ot his Words.

This Russia issue did not start today, it is more than 8yrs old, at least in the recent times.
Was it not this same Trump that was Peddling Influence for Weapons with Ukraine?
Revolting Criminal like Trump.

"Weaklings" have No Mind of their own, they always line up behind a BULLY, so it is not surprising.
Most E.U natiosn are afraid of Russia and wil like to see it destroyed, the same Way Israel was afraid of Syria and Irad (waiting on Iran) and orchestrated it to be destroyed by America.

Its all survival strategy, so dont make it look like Russia is bad and every one hates it.
Actually, we all HATE that which we are AFRAID of, Russia is no exception.

Come and see s l dey smile and jump up, the day some Soldiers dey beat up one Thug in my hood, as wrong as l know it is, for soldiers to be beating up a Civilian.
Enemy of my Enemy, is my Friend naah.

formaxy:


Don't mind them. Read wide! Read wide! Read wide! As if they've read enough themselves

ICBMs, Nuclear subs, long range stealth bombers offer more strategic nuclear strike advantage than "placing limited range missiles" next to Russia at the risk of a political crisis.

Look at this Clown! You are just mouthing weapons but you know nothing about their Trajectory or flight in space, otherwise you wont even write what you wrote.
Why cant you just tell us why America goes to long efforts to have its Military Bases all around the World, next to Enemy Countries instead of relying in the Weapons you mentioned?
Just tell us that America is as foolish as you are and we will keep quiet.
You better sit down and ask yourself, this Question first, before coming here to yawn.

hotwax:
Lets end this argument with common sense. Ukrainians did not fire barage of rockets into Russia or call for death of Russians.

Don't compare 2 disimilar scenerios...

I dont know why muslims are suporting russia. Russians are aethists and Orthodox christians. The may be supporting Iran, USA is also supporting muslim (saudi, UAE, Kuwait, Yemen) countries. Does that make USA a muslim country?

nigerian muslims mumu gan ooo

You must be a Joke!
Who told you it is Muslims that are supporting Russia?
You see why we say most Nigerians are Not intelligent and outright DUMB?

BTW, l am not a Muslim and Religion has nothing to do with this.

sirDUKE:

Good question. The Truth is you don't expect everyone to respond with same tactics okay, moreover USA isn't playing with same strategy okay?
The truth is Russia sees Ukraine as a part of Russia, they allowed Ukraine to become sovereign on condition that Ukrain consent to. It was called The Budapest agreement. Ukraine had to give up it Nuclear Weapons because Russia felt threatened by that, why then would they consent to Join Nato an arc enemy of Russia and have Nato military base moved to Russia door? Common it isn't fair.
The best way Russia deems fit to confront this threat is what it doing, which personally I think is bad war is never an option but the west shouldn't come and be claiming Saints. they are all the same.

Russia has tried its best, in the last 15yrs, to make the West see reason and to make Ukraine too understand its concern.
It has written so many Letters to all the International Institutions , the E.U, the United Nations and just about anyone it thinks has the duty to allow reason to prevail.
The US/EU/NATO said its Letter was a "Non Starter", it just dismissed it like you will dismiss a small boy throwing tantrums.

Russia was left with no option, than to Act and it is acting,... Now Everyone is listening and not calling it a "Non Starter".

Let any Country go and place Missiles in a country beside Israel and see what will happen.
Why do you think Israel still bombed Syria as of Yesterday?
Why is Israel attacking Iran's Nuclear facilities til today" Self Preservation, but we did not hear the West condemning Israel, only Russia deserves condemnation

War is not good and l agree that if possible, must be avoided at all cost, which is not the same mentality with the USA, who is always Shooting First and asking Question later!
But Russia, in my own opinion, has ran out of choices and has been pushed to the Wall and it is fighting back, taking the Path of least resistance. Putin is one of the most Rational Leaders that ever ruled any country, he is clam, cool, strategic and patriotic to his country and people.
God bless Putin, If Nigeria has a Patriotic leader like that (unlike ours that sell our country to foreigners or sabotage our efforts for their personal gain!), Nigeria wont be the shit-hole it is today

Mind you, l am not Anti-West, l love their advancement in technology as much as l like that of others like Russia, China, Japan, etc but we need to see and look beyond that emotion

olawonder:


Lol… u don’t know wah is goin on
Al Jazeera is pro West, they supported the Western invaders during the ousting and killing of Gadaffi, they’re at the moment campaigning against Russia too. Qatar is being excluded by its neighbours but being protected and supported by the West, so it only makes sense that it serves their interests as a benefactor!

That is why one must not stick to ONE particular Channel.
Listen to at least, four different Channels with opposing Interest and with a little sense, One will figure-out the TRUTH in-between.
They all have their INTEREST and would slant the News to suit their Interest/Narrative.
Even in this Russia/Ukraine fall-out, Aljazeera has been Pro West but if it were say between Palestine and Israel, Aljazeera will be very objective.

MSM are a greater Evil than even the Politicians that order the Wars because they manipulate People's mind to fit their own interests.

BTW: Just look at FIFA that has always been shouting that we should keep Politics Out of Sports/Football!
It is now taking sides with NATO, against Russia. Nonsense

Naija8240:
Western media covers every war stories equally .. I live in USA and that’s the truth. We should stop this whataboutism and focus on the evil called war. Let’s hv peace

Did l read "EQUALLY" or something else?
Please dont make me laugh and cry at the same time!

- How many of Saddam Hussein's speech did you listen to, before the US murdered him?
- How many of Putin's address have your Western MSM in the US allowed you to hear IN FULL, since the war started, compared to the Zelensky speeches?
- What can you tell us about Savimbi, Ghadafi or even Thomas Sankara?
- What did the Western/US Media tell you about Mali and WHY/HOW the French Troops have to leave their "Peace Keeping" Operations in the Sahel/Mali region?
- What did the US Media tell you about the Foreign Reserve of Francophone Countries till TODAY, tell us what you have heard from US Media

No one is blaming YOU for your ignorance, because you have zero control over these MSM but please, dont come and insult our intelligence here, by saying the USA COVER EVERY WAR EQUALLY. ... Just because you live there.

Yes, we all want Peace.

pafo:


Even U.S citizens themselves still doubt exactly how 9/11 happened. Just googles conspiracy theories about it. I'm no terrorist apologist, I just don't swallow everything I'm told by people in power hook, line and sinker like a slowpoke. Maybe that's what you do though.

You have a brain, please ask questions and try to see through the other side of things. The world is not juts black and white. There are other colors in it too.

I like people like you, WHO ASK QUESTIONS!
- Why si it that out of the 23 terrorist that did the 9/11, 21 were Saudi Citizens but Saudi Arabia was never attacked?
- Non of them were from Iraq but it was Iraq that was invaded and destroyed?
- Why were the iron Rods taken out of the collapsed ground Zero buildings quickly SOLD OUT to be melted to a East European Nation on the condition that they melt it immediately, thereby preventing Investigators form analysing the type of explosive material used in the explosion and to allow them trace its origin?
- why were the family members of Osama B Laden who were resident in the USA, as at the day of the 9/11, allowed to travel out of the USA, despite the prevailing "closed air space" (No Fly order) of the President on that day?
- Who benefits from the destruction of Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan and possible Syria?
- Why was Ghadafi killed, despite the fact that he had surrendered all his weapons, paid for an accident he knew nothing about (Lockerbie) and his country thrown into chaos? (Every African MUST ask and find answer to this question)
- Why was the partitioning of Iraq a priority for America, after the invasion? Why are they also trying to partiton Syria, righ tnow?

And finally, if you can, please download and read "Official Documents" like
- "Yinon Plan"
- The Great Game
- A Clean Break:A New Strategy for securing the Realm

All these can be read freely on the Internet. They are official documents, mostly, not "Russian books"

kelvin21887:
I'm beginning to hate West....I hate oppression, they are the aggressors and oppressors here. How come we can't access news updates from Russia, only west tells us what's happening.

Please, dont hate anyone, just be INFORMED!
The whole idea is to keep people ignorant so they can feed them with the Propaganda that they want them to hear, for easy Mind-Control.
That is why Americans are the least informed, most ignorant people on Earth, even worse than Nigerians!
Ask them where Nigeria is and they will tell you it is beside China.
Most Europeans still think Africa is one country, in 2022.


BTW: someone was wondering why they sanction Russia and still left some Russian Banks on SWIFT?
The reason is that those banks not sanctioned are the ones through which they have to be paid (Russian financial obligations to the West) or through which countries like Germany (30% of Russian Gas Import) have to pay Russian entities for their Energy imports, otherwise, Putin will close the taps and Nord Stream 2 is not online yet.
Smart people, right?

neuf:


again you clearly missed the whole point as it is usual with you guys.

Poland, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania are all closer to Russia than Turkey yet there's no missile there.
So why should they leave those ones and only be looking for Ukraine. You that have read wide. Reason! Think critical.

An AWC don't need to fly over a country to get info about enemy positions and equipments. Russia can easily get that by staying in Russia.
Yet you believe the US that ban Turkey, its ally from the F-35 program will now willingly move it's equipments into Ukraine all because they want to place missiles in Ukraine for a war that may not happen ever.
Missiles that can be delivered effectively from a sub in the black sea or the Baltic sea or the Pacific.

Reason guy, you are falling for Russian paranoia here

Now, l am convinced that you are "very short" on knowledge about these things!
I am sure you will suggest that America actually does not need all those foreign, military Bases it has all over the world, because AWS can be launched from anywhere!

FACTS:
- Turkey was under US sanctions, right through Obama Presidency. WHY?
- Even as a member of NATO< America refused to sell F-35's to Turkey but sold it to Israel and Japan and Germany. WHY?
- Turkey was refused the purchase of US made Patriot Missiles, even though they sold it to other countries. WHY? (They had to go and buy Russian-made S-400 Missile systems) and America said it would withdraw "military cooperation" with them because they dont want them to integrate Russian technology with theirs (that as the excuse)
- America does not trust Turkey one bit, even though they are both NATO members but they have different ideology and America still sees Turkey as a potential military threat, under Type Erdogan

Why am l telling you all these FACTS (and you can Google them, to be sure it is true),?
It is to let you understand and answer your Question about why America will not put Missile Batteries in Turkey, but place it in Ukraine.
Ofcourse, they have their weapons in all those Estonia, Poland, etc, as NATO Members.

The closest country to Russia, that is NOT a NATO member and that is friendly (Read: Subservient to..) with America, is Ukraine!
That is why america is bent on bringing Ukraine into its air of Influence.

If guys like you "read at all", you will have read where Russia did the analysis of how long it will take a Nuked Missile to reach Moscow, if fired from Kiev and how the time will be too short, for Russia to take any preemptive action.
This is why the issue of Ukraine, is EXISTENTIAL to Russia and that is why l said yesterday, that "Russia just had to invade Ukraine, `as it is, to remain Alive".

I am not a Russian Lover, as you said (and nothing to be ashamed of, even if l am one), but l am "AN INFORMED REALIST" and l analyze things without emotions.
Honestly, l cant go on with this back and forth, it is not my problem that you guys are ignorant.
Just keep supporting blindly, E go Shock you One day.

rajiedreez:

......

Just this past week before the invasion, I don't know if you read it in the news that Israel shot down a Syrian military fighter that was on a mission to combat an Isis region. The jet was shot in Syria air space not Israel air space o.

UAE and Saudi had been bombarding Yemen for years now with little or no media coverage o.

So many things going on without it being reported cos it doesn't fit the narrative.

You know that the soldier guarding Snake island in Ukraine that were initially reported killed by Russia and later four d to be alive. When the news of th being alive broke some medias were saying that it was Russian propaganda that they were actually killed only for them to report later that they were now alive.

USA, Russia Ukraine, UK, France etc all have one evil act or the other that they perpetuate.

As we speak right now, l just spoke with a young Cousin in Ukraine/Poland Border and he was crying! WHY?
The Polish Border Guards allowed Ukrainian and other "White Refugees" from Ukraine to enter Poland but LOCKED THE GATE AGAINST BLACK REFUGEES FROM UKRAINE!

He said they have been there, in the sub-zero temperature since Friday Night,
I advised him to go back home in Ukraine, not carry any weapon and display a White Flag on his Window, that l am certain Russian Soldiers will not touch them.
He said if they did that, the Ukrainian Nationalist (Neo Nazis) Militias will come in, drag them out and shoot them. he said they are more afraid of them than the Russians, and that is why they want to run away now, that they still have the chance.
But the Western Media is not reporting any of these, as if they are not aware, afteral, it is just BLACK people.

It is this same Ukrainian Nationalist Nazis that are killing the Ethnic Russians in Dombas Region, that Putin is determined to get rid of, that he invaded Ukraine.

Poland, Hungary and Ukraine are full of all these White Supremacist Neo-Nazis that hate others to the point of killing others. Those are Hitler's Boys on the prowl

stagger:


Mr man,
Get your brainwashed head together.

Russia has always stood for African revolutionary groups and independence movements. Take a look at this picture.

Most of these ignorant people commenting on the current Russia/Ukraine/NATO impasse, were not born in the days of the Cold War so they cannot appreciate what it means to have a Bi-Polar World.
They cant understand what the WEST (America and Europe) did to African leaders, after independence and how their actions have contributed to the rot in Africa, as of today and to make it worse, they dont read nor study History.

neuf:


so killing and displaying innocent people is okay now base on an imaginary scenario.

you do realise if the US don't need Ukraine for whatever reason right. Placement of weapons, they have that in Turkey already.

NATO base? having a base that close to your 'enemy' that can stay on his side and analysis your equipments and weapons is double jeopardy.

How do you guys even come up with this analysis?

Go and read about "American CONTAINMENT Policy" in Russia and China.
Most of you really need to read wide, l mean really read wide (l am not saying this in an offensive manner but Nigerians are really annoying when it comes to displaying ignorance on the international Affaors level), to understand how Nuclear Powers intend to attack each other.

Do you think America is foolish, for having Military Bases, in strategic locations all around the World?
Do you think they would expend so much money and resources to do that, if "PROXIMITY" does not count?

A Missile fired from Turkey, will take longer to reach Russia, than one fired from Ukraine, meaning that the "defensive response time" of Russia, WHEN FIRED FROM UKRAINE, will be reduced and response can become impossible, if such time is too short), than one fired from Turkey.

Loewe:


So what's the bottom line now? That since the US allegedly invaded some countries, Russia should be allowed to run down Ukraine?

His sentiments reveal the conclusion of his line of thought.

If that is all you can infer from his post, then you are not as 'bright' as you think.

SecretAgent7706:
Social media users accuse the media of hypocrisy in its coverage of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine compared with other conflicts

https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/2/27/western-media-coverage-ukraine-russia-invasion-criticism

What is good for EU/NATO-America, is not good for others.

Africans can think for themselves, they are the same people supporting the Criminal Sanctions of America over any other country that does not agree with its Bullying.

Basheer22:
I think what happened is this.

The Emir was coming from the Gambia to Lagos through an Air Peace flight. Air Peace delayed the flight, thereby making the Emir late for his second Air Peace flight from Lagos to Kano.

Now, the Emir's houseboy told Air Peace to delay the flight from Lagos to Kano since Air Peace was the cause of the delay from Gambia to Lagos, Air Peace refused.

Just imagine!
So, Air Peace should cause A SECOND, unnecessary delay just to wait for the Emir?
What about those who will be delayed unnecessarily, in that second flight, wont they also miss their next flight?
Moreover ,Air Peace has apologised to EVERYONE on that delayed Flight, so what does he want again? Maybe they should bring an Aeroplane to his backyard so the Plane can prostrate?

Anyone who wants a Flight to wait for him, should buy a Private jet, Nonsense

flokii:


Ideally, airlines are not meant to delay or cancel flights without tendering apologies to their customers, just that we overlook too many things in Nigeria.

From the look of things, the Emir's cousin is a pilot and he knows the rules which he can use against Allen Onyema's Air peace and get the airline sanctioned, so the ideal thing would be for Air peace management to tender the apology to not only the Emir but everyone affected.

Then he should go to Court and File his charges against Air Peace instead of constituting a NUISANCE on Social Media and issuing threats to Air Peace and their Customers or was he the only person that was delayed.

He can even withdraw their Patronage of Air Peace or is it by force he and his Emir must enter Air Peace or is he the first failed Pilot?
How Old is he that he has stopped being a Pilot?
What is the Customer Base of Air Peace from Kano or the North as a Whole, or when did Almanjeri started entering Airpplane?
He should please STFU.

My friend go to Google and educate yourself to heal your ignorance about medicine. I will still ask you fool, me just one innoventions of Russia for the past 10years. Russia is a very poor country, no Russia or anybody who have lived in Russia before have ever desputed that fact

Apologies, but you are really a DUMBO.

I am sure that you are UNAWARE that for SO MANY YEARS,, before Elon Musk developed the Space X Rockets three years ago, the Whole of EUROPE and AMERICA depended on Russian Rockets to get to Space?
Russian Rockets are the best, because they could travel at a very high speed, both Uplink and downlink, yet withstand the extreme temperatures of re-entry, something NASA/American Rockets could not do.

Google it, since you can at least use Google.
Some of you people, ehn. SMH

Sharap!
After deceiving and boldly lying to the entire world that the invasion na America e propaganda the coward still invaded in the dead of the night like a coward he is

Well, I tell you whether na 30% or 1% Putin remains a coward and his own Russian people will kill him anytime soon

Jokers like you are the reason White people laugh at Africans.
You dont have your own brain, yo cant use your own sense, you just regurgitate what Western Media says, like a Muumu.
Only an IGNORANT Fool will call Putin a Coward.
Joke aside., mention one President of any Country in this World, that is as strong and can take on Putin, one-on-one!
Putin is the person any World leader WISH to be like but CANT be like.

Putin is the Honorary President of the World Judo federation (until yesterday when America prevailed on the body to suspend him).
You think as a Black belt, National Champion Judoka, National Chess Champion, etc, show me one President or all these weak world leaders that can stand him?
They only run their Mouths on TV, many Miles away from him. Let them come within arms-length and call him a Coward to his face.

donbrowser:


They could have been quietly killed if the president of Ukraine didn't voice out.

No, you are wrong, Putin wont kill anyone who surrenders in a fight.
Most of you dont really understand the Dynamics of this Ukraine/Russia fight.
Russia does not see Ukraine as an enemy, but rather like a misguided, brainwashed, junior brother. You dont kill your brother just because he is fighting you under the instigation of outsiders, you slap him around and knock some senses into his head but never with the aim to kill him.

Russia believes that it is the EU and America, through NATO, that are brainswashing Ukraine to misbehave but it will make their Comedian President see some sense, when Russia destroys all the Weapons they depends on, while ensuring minimal casualty, except from the Neo-Nazis who have been killing Ethnic Russians in the Dombas Region, Poroshenko and Zelensky being one of these Neo-Nazis.

The goal[b] is not[/b] to destroy Ukraine of kill Ukrainians, the goal is to ensure Ethnic Russians are not being killed by the Neo Nazis and that Ukraine does not become a staging Post for attacks against Russia, by NATO (America and some European States)

seanwilliam:
where did you get all this half info from ? You’re less informed bobo , AMERICA approved 600m$ military assistance to Ukraine. And Were you with zelensky to know he didn’t pick up call ? Lol , naija international politics analyst

You are making up numbers!
America never approved $600M for Ukraine in one go.
Before the "military operation", they provided $250M worth of Arms to Ukraine
On Saturday, they provided $350M worth of Arms. Maybe that is what you added up to arrive at $600M.

As for Zelensky, l dont need to be with him, to know he has gone into hiding.
Since you are one of the "not so smart Nigerians" that swallow Western Propaganda, you are excused for not being able read in-between the lines.
But let me give you a Clue:
Go and watch all the Video of Zelensky's address to his Nation BEFORE the Invasion, DURING the Invasion and the RECENT videos, as from SATURDAY MORNING. Look at the Backgrounds and you will notice a striking difference from Saturday Morning, when Zelensky went AWOL.
But the greatest giveaway was when he had to go and put a Poster of the Govt House behind himself, to make it look like he was speaking from the front of the Govt House in Kiev (but we could see that his picture was super-imposed on the picture of the building )

But that is not even important, l dont expect a President to be at the forefront of a fire fight but what l dont like is the Pretense and propaganda, when he said: "We will fight together to defend Kiev, I AM HERE (in Kiev) and not going anywhere".
That is blatant lie and deception to Ukranians.

1stGenAmerican:


Okay, Sunday night is coming soon.
Last week, you guys swore the intelligence report warning that Putin would be invading Ukraine was Western Propaganda but here you are a week later discussing the invasion you swore was fake.

Naaah!
Relax and think about it.
America has predicted that Russia will invade Ukraine, Three times and it did not happen.
Is that what you call "accurate intelligence"? Why did those date fail?
America was just playing a game of PREEMPTION, designed to prevent the Invasion that they dont know when it will happen.

Now, what is the event that triggered that invasion and was American intelligence able to predict it?
To answer that, you will need to go back 8yrs, to the Minsk Agreement and all the steps Russia has taken, to make sure that the agreement was honored by Ukraine.
In summary, the trigger for Russia to invade, was the "Declaration of Independence, by Luganks and Donesk Republics (Dombas) and this also has to do with the behaviour of Ukranian Govt towards those breakaway regions, since 2014.
Russia just have to invade, to prevent another massacre of Ethnic Russians, otherwise, Ukraine was ready to unleash its full military force on them, for daring to declare themselves Sovereign States.

But if the American Intelligence was as good as you claim, they should have veeb able to predict the Date and the Trigger .. and then prepare Ukraine for the fall out, so that Russia could not invade.


BTW: Sunday Night is my own Prediction, for Kiev to fall into Russian Hands.

gambojimeta:

Of course they know.

If USA and Russia open their doors to take in migrants. 100% of Putin arse leakers on Nairaland will rush for the USA.

Fact.

You are comparing Apples and Oranges!
Comaparing "Tourism/Holidays/Travel" interest with what is happening righ tnow, between Ukraine and Russia, is a disservice to intelligent discussion.
Nobody expects Russia to be as rich as America, never!
Even if America does nothing, the fat that We all work, sweat and exchange our Natural resources like Oil, IN DOLLARS< will continue to enrich America.
That is why America will wage War and kill any Leader of another country (except if it is a Nuclear Power), who suggest that the Dollar should be abolished for international trade!
America Prints the "Paper Dollar" in his "Minting Press", you and l and the rest of the world work day and night, in exchange for such Paper Dollar!
You can see that e get as e be.
That not withstanding, the Nuclear Weapon is an EQUALISER for all Nations that have it.
Eveb very poor North Korea has a say, because it has the Nuke.
Reason that the Western Powers dont want Iran to acquire the Nuke but l can assure you, it will, before th eend of this decade.

usagee36:
Have you ever been to America? Are you an American? Bruat!

Are these questions really relevant to the discuss?
But if you think so, I have been there and lived there.
What Next?

1stGenAmerican:
The Kremlin announced that Putin is sending a team to negotiate instead of crushing Ukraine like you guys said he would. Is that fake news and Western Propaganda too? The Moscow Times is in Russia, not the West. Why is big bad Putin wanting to negotiate?

https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2022/02/25/putin-ready-to-send-delegates-to-negotiate-kremlin-says-as-russian-troops-encircle-kyiv-a76595

Old News!
That was as at Friday Morning.
The Ukrainian President asked to change the venue of the Meeting to Poland, instead of Minsk.
After that, he refused to pick up his phone to conclude on the arrangements, after speaking with President Putin, who obviously disagreed with such posture, America wants the war to continue (they immediately provided $350M worth of Weapons to Ukraine).

Meanwhile, Russia paused the assault on friday, to allow for negotiations but seeing that Zelensky has changed his mind, Russia has resumed and is all out to take Kiev before Sunday night.

Psady:
That's right, Russia still trying to minimise damages, they have their target and that's their aim, that zelensky is a noise maker using the lives of his country men to cruise, I just pray the very innocent one's leaves the country before things turn worse.

It is very sad.
By issuing out Guns to Civilians, to shoot at Russian Soldiers, he is turning them to "Enemy Combatants" and the way Soldiers treat such situation, is different from how they treat Civilians!
Imagine a Carpenter drawing a gun on a Russian Special Forces Soldier, is that not just Suicide?
President Zelensky has also asked his forces to embed themselves among Civilians and fire at Russian soldiers, showing he doe snot care about the safety of his People meanwhile, he is holed up somewhere very safe, with reports saying he is safely hiding in Poland!

But so far, Russia has shown maturoty, knowing that this is a war instigated between brothers, by outsiders.
Russia is strong enough to level Kiev within 24hrs, if it wants to really go all out to take over the country but that is not its aim.
America or NATO will not interfere with Boots on the Ground but will keep pouring weapons into the conflict, to keep it going, while Ukrainians are dying in numbers.
European countries are afraid of the military Power of Russia, it is too powerful for them, so they hide behind USA/NATO so, they are on one hand, happy to see a war between US and Russia, at least it will degrade Russian strength or possible cripple it.

Unfortunately,, Ukraine has allowed itself to the "the Grass" that Two Elephants fight on! It wont end well at all.

AchalugoNwa:
na wa ooo
I don't even know what to believe again

Hear your News from various sources, dont limit yourself to the Propaganda dished out on MSM like CNN and most of these Western Media.
In addition to then, listen to RT News, CGTN, Aljazeera News,

In between all these, if you keep an open mind, you will be able to decipher the Truth.
also, trace the problem back a bit, for example,
- how did US or NATO come to have a hold on Ukraine?
- What happened to the DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED Ukrainian President called Yanokovich, IN 2014?
- Who are the Arzov Battallions? What is their role in Govt and how was such organisation formed and to waht purpose?
- Why is the US and NATO so fixated on "saving" Ukraine?
- What is the Minsk1 and 2 Agreements between Ukraine, Germany, France and Russia, concerning the area of Dombas, in Eastern Ukraine? Why was it not implemented b Ukrainian Govt?
- Why are the European nations following the dictates of the US, despite the fact that their US-dictated Sanctions on Russia, is hurting their economies so much, while enriching the US?

These are some of the questions Nigerians should be interested in, not just blindly taking sides or acting on the propaganda of MSM.
It is very important for everyone of us to seek and know the truth in a conflict situation so that they dont use Propaganda to confuse us,

alizma:
Good news. Dead or alive, they remain heroes.

But their clueless President Zelensky already awarded "medals" to their dead bodies!
That Comedian President should have sense to know that he should not be using the life of his service men to do Propaganda News.

Russia acted like a real, world Power, by ensuring the safety of the Ukrainian soldiers POW, if tables were turned and it was those Ukranian Nazi butchers that captured Russian soldiers, they would butcher them in the most inhuman method, like Herdsmen do to Nigerians.
