God1000: lies, I don't want to be seen as US ass licker but Truth be told, US willingly pulled out of Afghanistan before the country fell to the Taliban, blame afghan president ashraf ghani for running away and his soldiers that surrendered to Taliban without any resistance
The same Nigerians that praised the withdrawal then are making a U-turn now to say another thing.
What's the difference between pulling out and running away?
Is that not the same as fleeing? Or you just want to throw words around.
They even did it hurriedly amid the chaos. Disgraceful!
ozo13: Putin really had map out his plan before going into the war with Ukraine. 16,000 plus sanctions to cripple them And Russia is waxing even stronger economically
Timing is everything for Putin & Russia.
If you've followed this conflict closely you'll understand what I'm saying.
Ukraine have tried their best to try to provoke Russia in order to deviate them from their plans but the Russians didn't fall for it. They always carry out their plans at the right time.
Russia have always been 5 steps ahead and it didn't start now. They are literally surrounded by sharks (NATO) waiting to smell blood.
Gratitude to President Putin for hosting me at Novo-Ogaryovo this evening. Looking forward to our talks tomorrow as well, which will surely go a long way in further cementing the bonds of friendship between India and 🇷🇺 Russia.
nlfpmod: You've been accused severally of posting Russian propaganda here. The last fake news you posted about Ukrainian first lady is still fresh.
So you'd rather have me posting Western propaganda?
Cuz we both know 90% of the news on Nairaland are western propagandas, used to white wash their image. So that no matter how many people they kill or how many governments and countries they invade, topple and destabilize, you'll still think of them as "Saints" and "God's Chosen".
Perpetually keeping Africans & the global south under their control.
Give me one example of how Russia or Putin has brought harm to you, your family or country?
For every one you mention, I'll give you 20 examples of how your country is still the crime ridden poverty capital because of the same west y'all worship.
🇭🇺 Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orban has met Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow, in a visit that has been heavily criticised by EU leaders and Ukraine's government.
Friday's meeting was part of what Mr Orban called a "peace mission", coming three days after a visit to Kyiv where he met Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky.
Hungary has just taken over the presidency of the Council of the European Union, but EU leaders have stressed that Mr Orban is not acting on behalf of the bloc.
Mr Orban is the EU's only head of government to have kept close ties to the Kremlin following its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022.
After the meeting, which lasted several hours, Hungary's PM said Russia and Ukraine were still "far apart" in their views on achieving peace.
"Many steps are needed to end the war, but we took the first step to restore dialogue," he said.
The Russian leader called it a "frank and useful" conversation. He also repeated a previously rejected proposal for Ukraine to withdraw from regions in the south and east of the country which Russia claims to have annexed - an area that includes territory Russia does not currently occupy.
Volodymyr Zelensky has long said Ukraine will not negotiate with Moscow until Russian forces leave all Ukrainian territory, including Crimea.
Earlier, Mr Putin said Mr Orban was visiting "not just as a long-time partner" but as a European Union representative.
However, European leaders openly condemned the Moscow trip and emphasised he was not representing the EU.
"The EU rotating presidency has no mandate to engage with Russia on behalf of the EU," Charles Michel, President of the European Council, wrote on X.
