Tell Lies?? Over what?? You are irritating
Is it because we are being paid money to lie or what?? Cos I don’t even get you...



People tell lies for various reasons

Ur position now is premised on misinformation. Nobody proposed to Zelenski to hand over Ukraine to Russia.
The position of Russia has always been that Ukraine must not be allowed to join NATO and become an attack launchpad by western countries against Russia.

Difrent:


How?
Russian Objective in Ukraine has been 80% sucessful and its only a matter of time that the remaining 20% which is taking kiev is achieved. In case you missed it....Russian reason for the invasion are 1 to demilitarize ukraine and denazify Ukraine. Zelensky admits almost all of Ukraines millitary equipments have been destroyed. So while the west keep beaming photos of bombed cities and humanitarian crisis to appeal to sentiments.....Russia is busy destroying military bases.... airports.....arms depots...and almost all of Ukrines military equipments.

Its the US and EU that has been demystified. When Putin invaded Georgia....he was testing the water....then realising that US AND EUreally cant do anything he moved to crimea and realising that the west wont do anything made the ukraine move. EU dont want to anger Russia because they depend on it for gas.....while US is too busy making sure China doesnt overtake it as world biggest economy.....Ukraine is on his own, that comedian just got to know the real difference between comedy and reality

100%! How do I get to buy you a cold Heineken? Or Odogwu bitters, at least make you Nak that your babe wella this night... grin grin

By the time this war is over, most of the healthy ukranian men will be dead, their wives and daugthers will be cleaning toilets in western countries as refugees and their children will end up being sexually abused as refugees in western world as it is already happening see link here as Ukrainian refugee children are missing - https://southfront.org/from-30-to-40-ukrainian-children-disappeared-without-a-trace-in-spain/

1. Simply major military infrastructure. So it does not get used against Russia
2. This was never part of the agreement.
3. Lies. Actually Ukraine has been on a campaign for more than a decade discriminating against speaking Russian in the country. Even Zelensky as a young actor, a native Russian speaker protested against this. The Eastern Ukrainians have millions of Russian natives why persecute the language?
4. That part of Ukraine wants to secede based on the persecution there. That is where there is a lot of nazification by the Azov militia.

Don't Join NATO for regional peace sake

Recognise Donbass region and all southeastern Ukraine with majority Russian ethnicity as an autonomous region

Or


Face Russia's demilitralisation exercise in Ukraine where all military installations and hardwares would be blown to pieces till every Minsk agreement is Honoured word for word


Zelensky made his choice and EU and US would let him face the consequences alone except for giving him few arms and loans


.



Russia can never be trusted to keep its word, not when Putin is going round saying Ukraine is not a real country. Putin either wants to absorb Ukraine into a new Soviet empire, or at the very least install a vassal regime in Kyiv, which basically amounts to the same thing.

The only guarantee of safety Ukraine has is joining NATO.

The war successfully exposed Russia , Putin and Russian Forces as weak, overrated, overhyped, unintelligent, untrained, defeated rag tag military. It now weakened their standing after all , Ukraine defeated them.




See Russian Forces uniforms....

Shame catch Putin

What do you expect? You want to see a blazer and cup of coffee right. You don't know shit about war.

Those two guys must have had their bath about a month ago, not to talk of changing combat uniforms. The nylon you see on their backs contains the food supplies they must have scavenged and they must not lose if they want to stay alive. Water is strictly rationed. And being in an enemy zone means help may not reach them at all or as planned and must walk several kilometers a day.

This happens to all combatants on battle fields no matter your country.

But, what do you know?

Faiththatworks:
I'm starting to get really irritated by the Russian terrorists on Nairaland,these Russian terrorists need psychological evaluation.
Putin is a mad man,very delusional and a crazy despot that needs to visit a psychiatrist as early as tomorrow morning.
I have tried to balance my information on this mad war Russia started in Ukraine,but the more I try to be rational,the more I see why Putin is nothing but a mad man.
I don't understand why mad man Putin will not allow Ukrainians determine their own destiny,why should Russia,another foreign country believe it has the power to determine the political direction of another sovereign country.
Why not allow hold a referendum in Ukraine,that will be conducted by a neutral body like the United Nations to known if the citizens of Ukraine want to join NATO or the European Union.
That was the most sensical thing to do before Mad Man Putin rolled in the tanks.
I'm very happy the whole world has finally demystified Mad Man Putin,he's nothing but a delusional,mad,crazy,psyocotic kleptomaniac that will be killed in Russia by his own generals.
And for his mad cretins on Nairaland,the Almighty God will allow you experience what the citizens of Ukraine are suffering in the hands of the Russia.
The pain and the agony of the Ukrainians will be your portion for all these crazy propaganda you push out every day.
You are too emotional

I’m not misinformed...u are bully that feels only your view must be correct....

I have a personal view that a sovereign nation should not impose its view on another sovereign nation and start bombing them when they refused....

is that not why we all hate the US.. propagating their LGBT and other nonsense ideology on other nations...invading other territories for reasons known to them..

if Russia were that great... why would their neighbor (Ukraine) be trying to join another nation thousand of mile away....

Answer this truthful... so that you can get the premise of my view... if Ukraine were Nigeria...will you still feel it’s okay for another nation to kill us becos we want to enter an alliance with another country... must Nigeria accept their demands just because we don’t want to die...??

I'll definitely be emotional and sentimental like the Ukrainians; it'll be a no brainer to rationalize it at all. This is because I'm a patriotic Nigeria. I love my country and it'll be a privilege to defend it against invaders.
However, that doesn't mean the Russians don't have a legitimate reason for their invasion toi. That's just me being patriotic!
I'll be too emotional to see things clearly.
When the Japs attacked Pearl Harbor, and consequently paid for it with US nuking Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Being the aggressors who started the offensive, one would think they'd make themselves agreeable to the fact that they started the war and so, should see things clearly, admit wrong doing and take responsibility, but that wasn't the case. They justified the attack!

Besides, it'll be an extremely unpopular opinion for any Ukrainian to rationalize the Russian invasion. They'll tag such a person a traitor and he'd be lynched.

although i don't support this Putin war & hardly believe Western & Russian media propagandas.

but if this is true, the Ukraine president messed up!

can u see the number of innocent souls butched in BUCHA northern Kyiv by the demonic Russian soldiers?

its only God that will know how many innocent souls that will die in Mykolaiv, Kherson, Mariupol etc;

all these would have been avoided if this new information is true.

today the Ukraine president is now wanting to follow the same advice, that would have led to avoiding this war
See the video in the telegram link below (remove the spaces in the link)

https://t. me/intelslava/24331

Here is a video of the evacuation of civilians from Mariupol. Again, white bandages. The white bandages are symbols of pro Russian. It was the Ukrainians National Battalion who killed people with white armbands in Bucha, for their connection with the RF Armed Forces. There was not the slightest sense for the Russians to shoot at them.

If you want to know what is really happening in Ukraine and filter off the news, you will find it on twitter or Facebook or these news organisations. Turn to telegram. Any tweet that confront the official story is suspended in tweeter.

The document decreed that Ukrainian SSR laws took precedence over the laws of the USSR, and declared that the Ukrainian SSR would maintain its own army and its own national bank with the power to introduce its own currency.[2] The declaration also proclaimed that the republic has intent to become in a future "a permanently neutral state that does not participate in military blocs," and that it would not accept, nor produce, nor procure nuclear weapons.[2]

That's a shallow way to look at it. No one will want his country to be bombed? It's not easy to lose people you love. But here, we have to ask questions on why, why and why it happened/happening.

You can't just approach everything with emotions. You won't make any progress going forward that way. That is why you see both parties sending out delegates and diplomats to trash out important details of the reasons for the war and see how it can end. Why can't they only continue to wale and cry and ask/beg Russia to stop bombing them? This is world politics and the politics that surround the balance of power in play. And a lot of people will be casualties of its madness. That is exactly what you are seeing right now. It's not a new thing.

1. Ukrainian armed forces must be disbanded.
2. All government officials should resign and handover to pro-Russia group because
they are all "Nazis".
3. Make Russian language the sole official language.
4. Cede the entire eastern Ukraine to Russia.

If Zelensky was wise, he would have accepted all the demands without complaining
and thank Putin for his generous "peace" offers. After all, slavery is better than war!
