VicM6: But in as much as Russia invaded Ukraine, Would the United state have allowed Russian to build a military base in canada or would the UK allow Russian build a military base in Scotland or Wales...I guess not. Russia is scared of what might happen if Ukraine joins NATO force. I knw Russia too well, Russia would never act unless if being push to the extreme wall, sometin the United state can not take for long.....We knw wat the US did to Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya...If not for how the NK nd China stood still, the US would have render them usless.... Putin only made a mistake invading Ukraine, sometin he would have settled peacefully with them rather than this unnecessary war with them...like i said, The west have pushed Russia to the extreme wall.
And where did you get the information that the west was planning to build a military base in Ukraine?and just so you know Ukraine can't even join Nato regardless of how much it begs because before you are allowed to join Nato it must be confirmed that you do NOT have any territorial dispute with another nation so how on earth would Nato have absolved Ukraine when them Still de drag crimea matter with Russia?
look all that Nato or military base building na just scam and doesn't hold water..Putin didn't have any excuse to invade Ukraine, FACT.
papamalik: This is mind game. Putin will never beg! it is not in his nature to beg. If he really wanted to be brutal with Ukraine, he would have brought them to their knees within few hours of stepping foot into their territory. His target was to seize the economy and not kill civilians.
Seize which economy?I laugh in Hebrew..shey na him.own economy now don thank so..at the end of the day we just have to ask was it worth it?was Ukraine worth destroying your own economy like you have done now?I assure you that the way it will take years for Ukraine to recover from this assault is same way it will take Russian economy to recover from the effect of these sanctions thats if they ever even recover because Putin choose to destroy Russia himself..
Like I asked before was Ukraine worth it? Its like have a huge stack of cash totalling 1million and then a huge wind blows then you try to hold on to your stack so the wind doesn't blow everything away and unfortunately one gets blown away while you still hold on to 999 then you release your grip on the huge stack of 999 and go after the single one blown away while the wind still blows leaving the 999 vulnerable and ofcourse the wind will blow every single one of them because you left them to try to grab the single one,now the wind has blown your money all over the place and even at that,you have still not been able to grab the single cash you ran after,so Is it worth it?VERY VERY FOOOOLISH decision and move Putin made.
wpadmin: Same way you like posting about the ills of the opposite gender.
Bro that girl is not ok o mentally..just imagine someone who is asking this type of question,lol question coming from a psyco that masturbates at news of some silly men doing bad things,yet she get mind the ask this kind question.
kerry57: Oga Putin, shebi u get balls? Men with balls don't beg. What will happen to the innocent civilians that u have murdered? I used to respect u Putin but u lost my respect for this impolitic move of urs and u will certainly pay for ur crime and ur country will still pay darely for it. The main payment is ahead, u just dey start.
As in ehnn the guy really fall hand sha,I use to hold Putin in high regards but now I so much dislike him and his lies. Iam sure alot of people are feeling same as we are.
jesmond3945: then why are they selling you pms at cut throat prices? humanitarian? you mean fake charities all over the place? just look how they scammed zelenskyy.
What exactly are you even talking about?how did they scam Zelensky?did they ask him to join NATO or did they ask him to stand up to PUTIN?some of you people just come and make baseless statements here anyhow..tell me how exactly they scammed him im curious where and how you got this idea.
And as for the NGOs I dnt even have energy to argue that with you,even if not for anything at least ALOT of Nigerians are gainfully employed cos of these NGOs you call scam.
emmanuelbrown26: Russia go suffer this war. U can't finish food cooked by d community but community would definitely finish whatever u cook for them. This war has always being against Russia but I don't know what's really giving Putin high moral. Imagine sanctions here and their, even his country men are against him.YYet some people are causing nuisance here bcs of putin. Well, I wish Putin and his supporters well but at d end,hhe will suffer for this.
Don't mind the clueless cows supporting Putin here when even his country men are against him.
Do you know that those bankers rip off customers a lot?
They are even the ones that gives out data to their Yahoo boyfriends to scam innocent people.
Now, you have the chance to eat out of the national cake, then you chickened off.
You no get mind , abeg.
You be Jew man.
Do you know that if you even ask the lady to give you small thing, she would be the one to snub you?
Don't do favours for women except your fellow men.
It is because of people like this guy that Nigeria is as bad as it is. Just hear this mentality abeg..if everyone decided to steal and cheat how do you think things will be? You must be a very bad human being. Change your ways.
Lagosianswag: Isn't All Fair in Love & War? Why the confusion over carrying out orders from the high command? This seems like another war propaganda/tactics.
In as much I admire Putin's defiance of the West, I Pledge my unwaivering allegiance to the West. The West schooled me, The West shaped me. The West may not be perfect, but my ideology comes from the West. I have got no apology for supporting the West (even in all its imperfections) I can only but strive for a better World for all. But if push comes to shove, I'd fight with the West. I am a Western Soldier. Russia has never impacted in my life in any shape or form. All my friends and associates are based in the West and its allies, how can I be so foolish to join a pariah state I know nothing of its culture or business? I want to believe all those supporting Putin are being sponsored by the KGB, the Kremlin and its allies if not then the foolishness I'm witnessing on Nairaland and Nigeria from Putin supporters is unprecedented. I think Nigerians need more military training to build up our acumen on the essence of Loyalty and a crash course on the Politics of World Domination and War.
#EnoughSaid.
Very brilliant accretion..I am really amazed at the level of stupidity and utter foolishness of people on NL supporting Putin against the west ,and I have come to a conclusion that they must be kids or extremely foolish adults. Even if the west invades anywhere illegally,they are and will always be way better than Russia in everything in respect to human rights freedom and every other thing.
I have NEVER heard anything like Russianaid anywhere in Nigeria or around the world for that matter,but daily we hear and see how USAID has provided jobs,good health and so much more to Nigeria and other countriesas well. Most of these Humanitarian Organisations and NGOs I have never seen anyone Russian or Chinese. Then imagine what the world would be like if either of the two was the leader of the world?? God forbid bad thing.
Naiira: Options have been weighed - Baba would rather perish in a well-coordinated US prison for his fraud crime, than lounge in a despicable Nigerian cell for his drug offense.
Sense will not kill these naughteners�
Exactly..you sabi the code..the charges here in Nigeria will cost him either his life or a life sentence but in America the highest sentence he MAY get is just 20years so even if na you which one you go choose? USA is now looking like heaven to the modafucker
Simran94: Why una dey reason like this? Russia invaded Ukraine, killed tons of Ukraine soldiers and innocent citizens, were they supposed to sit calmly and watch Russia destroy their nation?
My dear don't even waste your time on him,some people are not even worth the banter because from their comments you will tell how high or low their IQs are.
XTHRONE: Many kids are on this forum, this is one. What is wrong with being a comedian.
That guy is an Idiot na, His entire generation cannot be anywhere close to the comedians shoes,I mean ALL HIS BLOODLINE FROM ANCESTORS DOWN TO HIS GRANDKIDS. Fool talking about a comedian whose shoes are even more popular and important than he can ever be
Rugaria: They're trying to paint Putin as a borderline lunatic. Very crazy people. Bush that was acting strangely and talking incoherently never worried them.. Putin has been dealing normally with them for decades with no fuse, he is now a mad man because he decided to war in Ukraine for his security?
There is nothing in Putins reactions in Ukraine that's strange or new. He did exactly the same thing in Georgia, when during the opening ceremonies of the Beijing Olympics, Gorgia tried overunning ethnic Russians in Georgia. Putin left Beijing and went back home to bomb the Gorgian president back to sanity..
He has given Ukraine a loooong time to mend their ways. From just stopping at Crimea last time, to watching from the sidelines as ethnic Russians were slaughtered in Eastern Ukraine, he never attacked. If the leadership in Kiev weren't on some sort of ego trip, this would have been avoided..
Please shift make we see road jare..Bush never threatened the whole world with nukes like the Mad dwarf in kremlin is doing now.
complexBoss12: for Nairaland citizens of US by wish. these are the countries your beloved USA has invaded.
A classic example of their operation is Libya. They first raise and arm a separatist (terrorist) group. When the war hits up between the Terrorist and the govt. USA comes in as peace keepers.
Take that list to the trash..thats where it belongs. Regardless of what ever the hell you say USA did or didn't do,at least it is NOT MAD and STUPID enough to want to nuke the world like your MAD dwarf in the kremlin. Guy open your blind eyes and stop following Putin blindly cos apparently he doesn't give a flying fuckkkk about you or anyone else apart from Russia because he very much knows the implications of using nukes and destroying humanity and the planet earth possibly too yet he doesn't mind doing it and you are here with you yeye list that NOBODY gives a fucckk about.Go sleep jare
MangekyoAlt: The world? Apart from Europe and America, who else do you see crying about Russia's invasion of Ukraine? South America is quiet. Africa has barely made any statement, same with Asia. Infact the supposed US allies in Asia, South Korea and Japan have both been coordinating themselves. It is just Europe and USA that have been crying and ditching out sanctions. Russia spoiled all their plan which is why they're so triggered right now
What is this one saying? My friend go and do proper research before you come and expose your ignorance to the world. Japan and s Korea are on board with the Sanctions against Russia.
Dynamicboss: I neither support USA and the NATO antecedents nor the current thing Russia is doing to Ukraine but those supporting PUTIN's decision to kill innocent citizens are no different from the murderous devil. We have many Hitlers, Putins and the pretentious West on this forum with zero conscience, demeaning thoughts and wicked views towards humanity.
I am sure these pure hypocrites when giving the option to choose between America and Russia passport/visa will quickly jump on US. I actually detest some of the things US had done in the past but I prefer they remain world power compare the racist and bullied Russia. I have worked in both countries organization and without mincing words, America working atmosphere remains the best.
Those supporting China and Russia will end up working in their organizations till they retire. Can I get a resounding AMEN?
Amen to that Prayers for them o since they dnt have sense at all..thank you jare for this comment
Bigchristo: Since the invasion I have seen how the west operate, do not expect any truth from this news Vendor they pushed Ukraine into war with Russia but the Ukrainian soil and it facilities coupled with economy and military along with the citizens suffered the ripple effects, keep hyping that comedian, everyone who pushed UKraine to do this can’t come directly to their help they hide under NATO trying to send help which is a big shame, if the US&NATO think Russia is wrong by invading Ukraine they should have direct confrontation with Russia.
Go and buy sense bro cos obviously its far from you..A direct confrontation with Russia?like seriously?how old are you self?why hasn't the west attacked North Korea directly?abi what North korea have been doing are all very good too abi?its kids like you that rush and land into trouble without thinking things carefully and latter regretting their stupid actions kinda like your mad mentor Putin..
CharleyBright: Ok. After Ukraine which country will be next? Ukraine is not the first country he is annexing, neither will it be the last.
Some of you people supporting Russia and hating the US on Nairaland are very willing to sleep in US embassy everyday to beg to secure visa to go to the US, but you hate the US. And may God not allow Boko Haram and ISIS to over run Nigeria, because the same US and UK you people are hating is the same countries you will beckon for help, not Russia or China. Hypocrites all round. Between two devils, choose who is the better evil.
Bro just ignore the FOOLS,they are thinking they are forming bad guys not knowing they are just exposing their stupidity,childishness and ignorance on public space. I no de even reason their talk cos obviously they are men of little minds or most likely boys that their mums still feed at home.
CharleyBright: CAS won't answer them. The world is against Putin for his actions. Make Russian citizens and Football Association save their energies and force Putin to stop his senseless bullying of another country. Putin and Russian will be so hit with economic and socio-political sanctions that Russia will go on her knees and the Russian citizens will have to revolt against Putin govt. Now that the US and EU have banned Russia from using Dollar and Euros to trade, that will affect Russia's ability to buy or sell in international market. More sanctions coming to hit him bad. Russia economy will crumble without a shot being fired at it by NATO and US. The evil man thinks he can force a regime change in Ukraine and the world will just stand by and watch, and then he will boldly move to do same in Poland, Finland and Norway that are his neighbors and NATO members.
God bless you jare..exactly what I see and anticipate,Putin made a catastrophic mistake too big a mistake..but its not too late,he can still retrace his steps and help his country,but his useless ego may not let him do this.
Whazar: Ogun kee you there No sane person wants to associate with tyrants I thought Russia could live alone Enjoy your discrimination
Don't mind the idiots..their useless dictator has succeded in making them international pariah.I really use to like and respect Putin but he lost all my respect and His inevitable end is near.
Maxymilliano: I see lot of fools here rallying behind Russia, you can't justify the killing of innocent people just because US did the same thing. Glad you don't have the say in all this sanctions, so continue barking
Don't mind them,let them bark and masturbate on the issue as much as they want but nobody cares what they think and their opinions are so insignificant and belongs in the trash
hopefulLandlord: I stand with Russian football on this. FIFA should ban USA for Iraq, Yemen etc
Don't worry you can also lay with Russia on it too and go a step further and go and beat up the Fifa president and bully him just like what Putin(adolfniar putler) is doing to Ukraine at the moment so that your concerns will make a difference because from here you can't do SHIT even if you decide to be sucking putins cock and kissing his ass. ,nobody gives a flying fuccckkk how or who you stand with
Galileopapi: How many know the old Soviet union once invaded Afghanistan, before USA actually did? We need to go way back, not just this emotional sides taking with little facts here and there. Try get the full picture no just a perspective!!!
1stGenAmerican: That idiot is crying fake news from Western media but 3,000 is the number provided by Russian media. Some Nigerians repeat things they hear without reading or thinking
People like him are lunatics who shouldn't even be dignified with a response. Dumb folks forming woke and hardmen,dig very well you will realise they are just teenagers who think the world is like PlayStation games.
Mustiboy: Putin keeps receiving from left and right.
Ain't no one took this many actions when the US and Israel were invading other nations, which resulted in the killings of helpless kids and women.
Now, Putin is simply protecting his country's interests which requires drastic measures, and the Western world is going haywire.
Confused lots.
This just shows that the actions of the US then isn’t the same as what the dictator Putin is doing now, even his Russian citizens are protesting so what are even saying?if the whole world is against one MAD person then it just goes to show you that what he is doing is just absolute madness and wickedness and anyone who supports Putin needs to have their heads examined
I just wished Russia could summon more gut to attack US directly and deal some real blows on US so that Americans would wake up from their slumber.
Americans are gradually losing it. From Afghanistan to Ukraine and I am sure Taiwan and South Korea will be next
I can see clearly now that soon America will become a past world power because their leaders and citizens of today are more interested in parties, LGBT, porns and hiphop musics and their makebelieve foolish Hollywood films that have gradually turned Americans to cowards without guts.
Americans of the 30s and 40s will be turning in their graves watching their labour vanish like ghost shadow
China-Russia is the new world power, no jokes about this.
The West have become cowards and lovers of worldly pleasure
Even to disconnect Russia from SWIFT they are divided about it, just dishing out useless sanctions
The long epistle you just wrote is devoid of any sense in it. Do proper research before you rush to expose your ignorance online in a bid to pose tough. Let me inform you that Russia has very little moral values and a lot of female porn stars are Russian descents and they have a very active LGBT community around the world in in Russia too so that your talk about LGBT etc in America is baseless.
Secondly even the China you talk about hasn’t condemned Russia outrightly because of cowardice and the fear of Russias reaction so the WEST and America are the HEROES for daring to standup to a bully like Russia and America did NOT become the number one in the world because they are FOOLISH, they possess their status as leader because it takes an intelligent and strong person to be an effective leader. For people like you who are just little kids thinking this is PlayStation and saying US has lost it because they didn’t use their military to defend Ukraine at the detriment of the rest of the world means you are clueless.
So you expect USA to come and start shooting Russian troops in Ukraine who hasn’t even joined NATO yet and then Russia with their Mad president Retaliates and shoots down NATO and US satellites or even uses Nuclear weapons and the whole world gets affected at the end is what you think should happen in your poor reasoning and judgement. America is doing the best it can do sensibly with the safety of the rest of the world in mind and as for the SWIFT that your are talking about, go and do proper research on that so that you will understand the effect that action will cause to the global economy and Europe. This is not Kalukalu child’s play.
moralistic: Some Nigerians are supporting Putin simply because Ukraine has the backing of America...
And 98% of those Anti America are haters of America just because of the way America has dealt with terrorist and terrorist nations in the past and still doing.
Thank you America for making the world a better place... else, I wonder what life would have looked like if iraq, iran, Osama bin laden etc were not resisted and humbled by America ...
America, Southern Nigeria loves you
And as for Putin, your end is near... your people are not in support of your actions, even your cabinet are not in support....
Weather you invade or not, your end is near
Those of you talking about American invasion of other countries....let me make it clear...
IF ANY NATION IS A THREAT TO WORLD PEACE, AMERICA WILL INVADE THAT NATION.... what is wrong in that ? Most of you are pained because america don't sympatize with terrorists
You are one of the few wise people here..more wisdom to you. As for those saying rubbish about USA and are pro Russia, I dnt even have the time and energy to banter with their clueless selves.
They think this is PlayStation world lol..Anyone who supports Russia in this situation clearly isn't intelligent and doesn't deserve any time and conversation because they have nothing intelligent to say.
kingthreat: Anything happening in Ukraine will affect Russia. US and NATO troops in Ukraine will be seen as an a security threat to Russia. Russia just wants the west to leave Ukraine for them, the west has been working on removing Russia's influence from the state. Hence what is happening now.
What you are saying is utter rubbish. Its just like A church behind or close to ur house tells you that they won't let you mingle with Muslims or people who don't share your faith because it is a threat to them and as a result the pastor will ask his members to invade your house..does that make sense to you?its just easy for you to say all you are saying because you are not the one been bullied
