FERNANDEZISBACK:
Putin always stated haha..
No one is disputing the fact that the have dangerous weapons aiit..
Russian propaganda emphasizes the size and power of Russian military to people like you...

But experts understand that while Russia spends and unusually large amount of their GDP as compared to US , their GDP is a small fraction of US and smaller than the major EU countries (Germany, France and UK. These experts agree that Russia’s military is certainly #2 in the world, but in a conflict with any Western country most of who are members of NATO, they would be up again forces far larger than they could ever muster, so these conflicts are unlikely to occur..

Against any other country in their home region they are greatly superior..

You clearly don't understand what nuclear weapons are. The ones used in Japan have little yield compared to the nuclear weapons in the world today. Only 2000 nuclear missiles with turn the entire Earth to dust and ashes. Both Russia and the US have more than that.

FERNANDEZISBACK:
No one is underestimating them but judging by their military capability they are in no match to survive a full blown war against NATO..

For anyone who has some knowledge on military issues,the question should have been if Russia has any chance to stand against NATO for more than a week.

We don't live in 1942 where comrade Stalin orders the slaves to work non stop and produce 80.000 T 34 tanks. It wouldn't be any good even if Russians had a million tanks. That's the reason they're not producing in quantity T 14 Armata. In modern warfare the key to victory is air superiority. That's a field where Russians lack behind 30 - 40 years in technology,at least. They had to get targeting pods for their jets and thermal vision for their tanks from France...
Another thing is how long can they keep fighting when they are still struggling with their economy..
Pu*tin is considerate and wouldn't wanna engage himself in a war against NATO or USA.. casualties from both sides especially Russia is gonna be fatal..

I guess you are ignorant of Russia’s nuclear arsenals. Putin already stated that in a war with NATO, Russia will deploy it's nuclear weapons promptly. Browse about Russia’s new hypersonic weapons Zircon and Kinzal. Not to mention Sarmat and Icekinder missiles. 1 sarmat each will take care of France and the UK.

IhateYouMan:
Wait till Russia mistakenly kills a NATO soldier and see what happens

You should pray it doesn't become a nuclear war because the UK, where you reside will be obliterated. UK will be dust and ashes with a single strike of the Russian sarmat nuclear missile (Satan-2 is the NATO codename). In a nuclear war between Russia and NATO, China will become the undisputed economic and military superpower if they don't get involved.

Finally a Nigerian man has made sense. I don't support infidelity though men should stop with the DNA nonsense.
Before you do DNA, consider the emotional state of the child.

Emotional stress on whose child?

Freestainworld:
Russia would have invaded Ukraine but backed down because they blew their cover.

If Russia wanted to attack Ukraine, they would have done it a long time. Check how they entered the Syrian war and how they took Crimea. They were there before the US could even notice

Zion243:
What are you saying?

Russia has always been a world power before Putin rose to power. He didn't build anything, he's only interested in military capacity as to keep himself in power and eliminate any opposition at will. The economy of Russia is nothing to reckon with. And mind you, Ukraine is already a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.

Browse about Russia after USSR fell. Even Putin became a taxi driver despite being an FSB agent in other to meet up with the economic challenges.

SmartPolician:
Vladimir Putin invests a lot of resources in their military; the same resources he ought to use for promoting economic prosperity. From Prime Minister to President, he doesn't want to leave the corridors of power.

Communism is no longer fashionable in today's world because humans will always demand freedoms and economic prosperity. Much as it appears that Russians like Putin, I strongly believe that the day the former Soviet superpower will have a new leader will truly mark the end of the cold war between the US and Russia.

Putin should not drag over 146 million people into a stupid war he could have avoided. It's easy to start a war but nobody knows how and when it will end. You are dealing with NATO here, not just the Americans. Common sense, not ego, should prevail.

Putin built Russia to become a superpower after USSR fell and I don't think he wanted to invade Ukraine..If Russia wanted to invade Ukraine, they would done it in less than a week. He doesn't want NATO to come to Russia border because the US will end up placing their nuclear and hypersonic weapons in Ukraine if it becomes a NATO member.

Danny50:
Putin gat know balls believe me he's just a noise maker just like that North Korea's dwarf.

People with nuclear weapons got no balls. Your brain is far from you. US that have balls should attack a nuclear country abi na only non-nuclear countries like Serbia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Lybia and Syria, they sabi attack

NamelessOGBENI:
For once, the doomsday prophets failed.

Sip my coffee in peace.

Their nonsense intelligence said that Nigeria will break up in 2015

SarkinYarki:
Let them invade ...I used to like Zelensky but he has become a Nata puppet ...Russia will invade and NATO will look aways

One thing that people don't understand is that being neutral under these circumstances is the best way to survive. Neutral countries like Finland, Sweden, Switzerland, New Zealand, some Asian countries and African countries will be the only ones to survive a third world war. The nuclear weapons used against Japan is very little and less effective when compared to the kinds of nuclear weapons in the world today. Nuclear Russia and China have signed a pact and then you have NATO, North Korea, Isreal, India and Pakistan, all having incredible nuclear weapons. This Ukrainian govt is playing a dangerous game. Russia is too close to them

God1000:
There's so much back and forth with this Russia-ukraine crisis.

The latest information now is about de-escalation, not aggression.

Russia is already pulling out its troops from Ukraine's border

You guys are not current at all

This US government actually wants Russia to invade Ukraine to improve their anti-Russia stance in Europe

jyz200:
Please why did Russia said Ukraine shouldn’t join nato

Please why did the US say that Cuba cannot have Russian missiles in their sovereign state?

Hisbah21:
speak for urself Shetima. We will surely let him down.. we will betray him politically, he should keep sending his campaign goods. I just want to see Tinubu fall politically.omo we will tell him Nigeria no be Lagos


no one should call me Atiku supporter. i have no candidate yet

Shettima is supporting Tinubu for selfish reasons. Nigeria is NOT FOR SALE. We don't want bullion vans to become part of the presidential convoy.

Mooh247:
You are clearly naive of the consequences of fighting the wrong battle with Russia with world highest numbers. Of Nuclear war head.... It's simply sucidal

Ok will US also allow Canada and Mexico it's neighbours join forces with Iran , and Russia it's enemies and also start military base together beside your borders


It's simple NATO , the west and US should stay clear of countries close to Russia and mind their region

Thank you. Even US Senator, Bernie Sanders had similar opinion.

Mistakenly. Extremely state of vulnerability.

Having sex is not a mistake. It was intentional or was she raped? A cheating good woman and then the mistakes go on and on. Cheating is bad under all circumstances, whether it's done by a male or female.

Amaechi might be the next president and Zulum, the next vice-president. That may be one of the reasons why Buhari called him

TheRareGem1:
Absolutely.


There is a reason Baba Buhari ask for Consensus . If you know you know

Premium tears are loading for all those chest-beating and boastful e-rats.

The Presidency will come to SS

paulolee:
ASUU still de strike? I think say DM promised never to go on strike after dt last meeting dt concluded dt last strike...na wah o

FG refused to implement the MOA they had with ASUU in 2020. FG only meets ASUU after they’ve gone on strike. Useless Government

The next president of Nigeria

Kinzo0917:
Wrong list. The governor of Delta State Ifeanyi Okowa should be number one in that list. He is the worst governor since Delta state was created and Since the inception of Nigeria. No single presence of governance in Delta state and no development. Is like Delta is cursed with good leaders. How I wish PDP will be kicked out of Delta State

Delta state have been unfortunate since the time of James Ibori. It doesn’t even look like an oil producing state. See Awka Ibom and Rivers, then compare to Delta state. Even Uduaghan was a mediocre too

seunmsg:
Chronic IPOB separatist are now chronic unity beggars campaigning for Peter Obi Pandora to be the president of the same country they want to breakup.

The Niger Delta might eventually produce the next President. Just as IPOB campaigned for Biafra, the Yoruba separatists campaigned for Oduduwa Republic.

neuf:
Good riddance... Keep making the world a safer place one mission at a time.

Not some wannabe "Super Powers" not lifting a finger when it matters but will cry that their neighbours want to leave them.

The same Syria that Russia is in and ISIS is proscribed in Russia but they won't do anything when it matters in the world's interest

Foolish post. Isis took 2/3rd of Syria and were selling oil to Turkey at a very cheap price. It was Russia that helped the Syrian Army to reclaim most of those areas and you are here writing nonsense. If the US hadn’t invaded Iraq, they would be no ISIS today. Still there was no weapon of mass destruction in Iraq like they claimed before invading Iraq.

PeaceJoyLove:
Politics is funny. It may happen Tinubu is kicked out of APC....very possible. The fact remains, he owns South West. And if these people end up destabilizing PDP, Tinubu and Wike may jointly come together to front Tinubu. Very possible. Cos the VAT romance of Lagos and Rivers versus Abuja seems strong. Hmmm. Politics can be very funny. And that will be a tough fight cos Tnubu's SW + Some parts of North Tinubu has captured + Wike's SS can be disastrous. Hmmmm.

Wrong permutations. You think SS will support Tinubu after what he did to Jonathan in 2015? You dey sleep on top bicycle sha

Billingslord:
some yoruba are just stupid wasting your money on people who hate your people with passion.
only a fool who believe ibo don't want tinubu because he is old or allegedly corrupt, it is because he is yoruba nothing more.



I will rather vote turgi bello than any ibo man

This is not about tribe. Tinubu and Rochas Okorocha are very corrupt. Bring someone like Akinwumi Adesina, Peter Obi or this Borno state governor and see how Nigeria will get better.

Beware of Yoruba people. They have occupied this platform like flies to promote their bigotry and tribal Barabbas. Noisemakers

If PDP should give their ticket to a Northerner, he should be made to sign a legal agreement not to seek re-election. Anything to remove this borrow borrow and corrupt-ridden APC is highly welcomed.

Michelle70:
so this is like a counter thread to Tinubu van?

I seriously need to leave this country for ona

Did Jonathan take bullion vans to his house? Only one bold criminal have done that in the whole Nigeria. His miscreants at one point said that content of the bullion vans was not money but tissue papers

Atk1nson:
thank God they didn blame pdp this time. As usual though, it is everybody but buhari's fault

Adesina is the perfect definition of an IDIOT. The Govt was indicted here not the people. Same people had different opinions during the PDP administration. Bastard son of a thousand fathers.

Not again. We have more important things to discuss in this country. Why Tinubu?

Automolite:
Most pple think it's just abt "Russia invading Ukraine"...the kind of international politics being played here is beyond us.
Uptill now, no WMD has been found in Iraq, yet US conveniently invaded a "sovereign" nation like Iraq. Same "sovereignty" that was cast aside when France lauched air assaults against Libyan military forces for months.

Exactly. Lybia was the most prosperous country in Africa before NATO invaded it. The funny thing is that Russia might invade Ukraine and NATO can't do shit. The US don't want a nuclear war with Russia. Don't mind all these people watching CNN and BBC.

neuf:
show me the credible Intel that it's the US that instigated a coup?
All these hearsay.

Before you write trash at least sit down in a quiet environment and ask your self simple questions.
What benefits does Ukraine, Georgia, Kazakhstan and Turkey serves to the US that will make them do something that if uncovered will shattered and shake the very foundation of their generational alliance built for so long?

Not every thing is about Russia.
what exactly is Russia contribution in the world? Did they fight the war on terrorism or how many countries have they been providing aids?

Simple question and answers will clear your mind.
In the mean time take a look at NATO position (Red line) against Russia federation but you guys will happily sing NATO is surrounding Russia (Pic 1).

in pic 2, look at Russia position relative to Ukraine but in this case, you guys will say Russia is defending its National Security not Russia is surrounding Ukraine abi

You know nothing bro
