Putin must be joking to think threatening the rebels will force them to hands up.. They are prepared to fight till the last drop of their blood. Supported by the west ,their is no way Putin can survive the internal hurricane .. Every despote must listen to the voice of reasoning

So you think the despot is the elected president of Russia, not the guy supported by the west to destroy Russia?
And you know the determination of the western supported rebels because you are in their midst ?

jackcanfield:

It is a possibility, yes the Ukraine war might not be popular, but then Putin was not wrong in trying to protect the motherland from future aggression, a great leader is always proactive not reactive, unfortunately men are always difficult to manage even if you give them all the resources to be satisfied, they would still be envious and always want more .

Please, tell me how putin was trying to protect the motherland? By invading another sovereign country because of the feae of that country joining Nato?

Some of you talk as if we are still in the USSR era. Today, Russia is a country, Ukraine is a country. Both are distinct countries. if Ukraine decides to join Nato, that is their business. Why didn't Russia invade Sweden and Finland when they said they wanted to join Nato?

Patosky4U:
I don't know what is actually happening in Russia but all I know is that this clearly shows that the invasion of Ukraine was a mistake and Putin was not well informed. The infighting will give Putin a clear understanding of things, though that wagner leader is a goner. This is a stab on the back, he should have table his griavince through another channel not by threatening the federation army.


Both US and NATO and Russia can go to hell. Over billions of people hardly eat all over the world but they contribute billions up on billions to finance a war but cannot feed their people. Rubbish

it is laughable when you said the Wagner boss is a goner,this guy is in control of 20,000+ of the best fighters in the world with first class equipments and intelligence,if Putin does not soft pedal and negotiate these guys will take him done,every army in the world is scared stiff to fight these modern mercenaries groups like Wagner and blackwater's,they are employed by governments to fight were their army has failed,these guys are the top best most agressive warriors from all around the world

No one is disputing their sovereignty, even the United State didn't allow Cuba have Missile site at striking distance to Florida, so what are you saying, the primary purpose of government is the security and well being of it's citizens and threat to that must be nip to the bud .. As if you would feel secure if all the French countries surrounding us decide to form FATO.

Oppression has its limit. Putin oppression of Ukraine. This is the same thing we are talking about of the oppression of Igbos in Nigeria.

Asari Dokubo's family might be forced to lift up the Britain's embargo placed on selling you people off if you start any trouble based on one nonsensical idealogy of oppression. Who is oppressing you? You guys are oppressing yourselves!

linearity:


The truth is, fighting the Wagner group, the very highly trained mercenaries that having been helping Russia in the war front is Putin’s nightmare.

Unlike the fight with Ukraine, Russia is highly handicap here; because this fight will be taking place on Russia own territory, so Russia wouldn’t be using missiles, wouldn’t be using bombs, no nuclear weapon….this will be a tactical Street on street hand battle between both sides from house to house and in many cases using knives, guns, snipers, etc and these mercenaries are more well trained compare to Russia soldiers.

If Putin use the weapons, bombs, missiles he have been using on Ukraine in his own territory on his own people, he would have helped recruit more Russians against him.

This is very bad for Russia, Putin would prefer a diplomatic way & dialogue to resolve this.

As trained as they are, the acknowledged loosing 20,000 men in Ukraine. 😂🤣😂🤣😂 I suspect a foul play. Hope Putin is not using the war in Ukraine to reduce the Wagner click. 20,000 is a lot! Anyways the heads of the children killed in Ukraine for no just cause has made the Wagner to run mad I suppose.

You are making baseless comparisons.

In the Cuba Missile crisis, the USSR were placing tactical offensive weapons on Cuba Soil while lying to the US that the weapons were only defensive.

In this current case, Russia doesn't even have any evidence that the US has missiles in Ukraine. They just attacked ukriane to PREVENT Ukraine from joining Nato.

Another difference is that even when the US realised that the weapons being placed in cuba by USSR were Weapons that can be used to attack the US, the US didn't attack Cuba. They didn't invade Cuba. But here is Russia invading another country just because of a suspicion that Ukraine wants to join nato.

And if surrounding French countries wants to form Fato, what should Nigeria do? Start a war with neighboring french countries? Lol. Una sef.

It is like you don't understand the module of operations of NATO " an attack on one is an attack on all" ... Imagine we have a FATO and we have small problem with small Benin and then FATO members decides to join Benin against us .. that is why NATO is a threat to Russia Sovereignity .

Stop belittling the Creator.
Quit the blasphemy already!
The United States of America is a terrorist nation.
God Almighty has absolutely nothing to do with what America has done to many nations like Libya, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Vietnam, etc; God has absolutely nothing to do with what Israel is doing to the Palestinians today. God has absolutely nothing to do with what France is doing to the Francophone countries in Africa. It is all man's inhumanity to man, orchestrated by forces of wickedness and imperialist subjugations. There was once Rome which seemed invincible for more than a thousand years. It eventually fell and faded away. So many powerful empires had fallen and stayed fallen at various times in history.
The Israeli Nation you refer to had been defeated and dominated many times in their history. They had been enslaved and colonized by all kinds of empires: Babylonians, Assyrians, Persians, Greeks, Romans, Ottomans Turks, Mamelukes, Seljuks, Jihadist Arabs, Britons. They are humans like you. They can be defeated. They are not more important to the Creator than you.
Stop misinterpreting the Bible.

Thank you

Russia had better not loose this war if you care about the world and Africa particularly.

The only nation that keeps the excesses and authoritarianism of US and its allies in check is Russia and China. Those 3 help maintain balance of power in the world.

Be ready to accept any propaganda and stupid ideologies the US will force on you and everybody if they win this war(cos it will embolden them). LGBTQ included.

This people are damn good when it comes to propaganda. They know how to make the media portray Putin and Russia as the villain and they as the innocent and peacemakers.

That same west that is giving your relatives and your fellow country men shelters and jobs including better education are the ones you still hate. God have mercy on you.

Tell me the resources they are exploiting, are they the head of nnpc or custom, instead of you to blame your corrupt leaders you are blaming people whose leaders think before talking decisions.

Well my representatives are the government of an eu country (I don't have leaders but representatives), and I am well placed to know how my current nation is exploiting the heck out of Africa.

Leave ignorance out of this, more than 10,000 lives have been lost on this senseless war Putin embarked on and here you are trying to defend him as a result of your hatred towards the west. Many have been rendered homeless, fatherless, motherless and childless because of one man trying to show how powerful he is. Pray that you don't experience such situation because if you do, you won't come here to defend him

Leave emotions out of this. US will do the same thing Russia is currently doing to Ukraine if they were the one.

Imagine Mexico declaring to be a Russian ally today. US will surely go berserk and make a move to invade Mexico cos they can't stand the feeling of having their arch enemy military base behind their door.
If thousands of lives are wasted as a result, I am 95% sure you won't see any issues with that cos it's US. You may even find reasons to justify their actions as protecting their territory.

But since it's Russia, it has become a crime.

Stop running from pillar to post. Stay one place. First, you drew a baseless comparison between the cuba missile crisis and Russia invading Ukraine. I had to lecture you that both scenarios are not the same.

Who doesn't know an attack on a Nato member is an attack on all Nato members? It is against international law to attack another sovereign country unprovoked. Russia messed up. Even during the cuba missile crisis when the US had every right to attack Cuba because of tactical offensive weapons that USSR had placed there, they didn't attack Cuba. But here is Russia attacking ukraine even though there is no evidence of US weapons in Ukraine.

Must we have a problem with Benin republic? Maybe you don't understand how international relations work. If our french neighbours decide to come together to form Fato, Nigeria will not do anything because countries have the liberty to form alliance with other countries of like minds. To counter that, Nigeria can form it's own alliance with English speaking countries in west Africa, just like Russia formed Warsaw pact in response to the US forming Nato.

Security is one of the issues but not the only issue, there is also disputed land and territories that want to break away legitimately, moreover the U.S was rumoured to be developing bio weapon in Ukraine , they were also rumors of the Nazi's resurfacing in Ukraine. Unfortunately the Western media started this War with their propaganda.

Don’t you have leaders?! My guy!

To go to America, don't you need to go through costoms, have a valid visa and then be allowed in or not by the American officials ?
You think you can enter America by force? Even when they tell you no ?
You think you can enter with weapons ?
Benin had its traditions and laws, foreigners don't enter the capital during igwe festival. You are told to not enter by the officials, yet you dismiss them and continue, you even go in with weapons, you are told again to not enter, but you insult the officials and the king, because you believe your skin tone makes you superior to them. Benin was a sovereign country and Benin applied its laws on the invaders (the guys were not even refused to enter Benin kingdom but just the capital Benin city, they were being warned in the kingdom to not enter the city)
Then what happened? England thought it was the right thing to destroy the capital of Benin and kill and displace an untold number of people and loot or destroy Benin treasures and architecture.
When illegal migrants are killed by American border patrols, does that trigger a war or a genocide by the country of origin ? When Italian coast guard kill illegal migrants, does that trigger a war?
How many illegal migrants were killed by Poland lately when lukashenko was trying to ferry them into the EU ?
But in the case of Benin, you have illegal and weapon carrying migrants who insult the king, and you support them, and the genocide than ensued, you support as well. Yet you say it is wrong to support Russia because it is invading ukrain and killing Ukrainiens? So now it is bad to invade?
Try and be a little bit coherent. Also don't confuse your slave mentality with education.
