Mooh247: I am certain Russia would not use nuclear weapons but only if Russia itself is threatened. No one can win a nuclear war. Both Russia and the US has enough nuclear power to destroy the world 6 times over. So Russia will only use nuclear as a last resort if it's very existence is threatened. 2 Likes |

SeriouslySense:We are talking of countries and you are mentioning Belarus. If not for corruption, Nigeria can invade and take over Belarus. Belarus is just there, forget about them. The truth is, current set of leaders of western powers are cowards, they are more concerned about winning elections, going on tours, and the celebrity packs that comes with being their nation's number one. Putin is just making noise, the only difference is that Putin have more liver than the rest of superpower leaders of today. Russia didn't deal a blow on just Germany when they were USSR, talk more of now they have been divided into tiny nations. Russia is scared of Ukraine having western allies like NATO and the US because they know it will stop them from bullying Ukraine as they always do at will, that's why they are making this noise to scare away NATO and US and they seem to have succeeded. Russia is a broke nation, many Russians are struggling to survive and have been complaining about Putin, so its not as if the whole Russians are in support of Putin invasion of Ukraine. Russia doesn't have the money and economy to start and sustain a full blown war with the western allies if they decide to stand solidly behind Ukraine but its just that western leaders of today are selfish and cowards, and it hurts that they are abandoning Ukrainians, I wished I was a superpower nation president, would have issued a decisive warning to Russia that will make Putin think twice. Being a leader goes beyond ordinary, you need to be brave and strong willed. Sometimes you challenge the devil, that was how US earned their world superpower title, not by being cowardly like Biden is today. Russians are equally scared of western sanctions but you outsiders are cheering Putin to doom as usual 11 Likes 1 Share |

Mooh247: Are you answering most of these illiterates and clueless folks on Nairaland? If Russia cuts off gas supply to the whole of Europe, the whole of Europe would simply freeze as most homes depend on gas imported from Russia to heat their homes in winter. Also, a lot of factories depend on this gas to function. Russia cutting off gas supply to most of the EU countries means death, job losses, economic sabotage and a whole lot. Germany is the biggest customer of Russia in the whole of Europe as they rely heavily on Russia for gas supply. Russia has the EU by the balls and that's why Putin is confident enough to attack Ukraine. 9 Likes 3 Shares |

Rugaria: How is the West to blame here. How are they responsible? There is no single NATO country on Russia's borders. Ukraine is not a member of NATO and cannot even qualify to be a member at this point in time so the West has no defense pact with Ukraine but the West will seek to protect any democratic country that is under unjust threat. 2 Likes |

You don't even consider their nuclear arsenal, and they have been making better weapons, they have been researching. Its does not really matter if the west have a better weaponry, war also involves the mind, Russia under Putin have shown to be good in psychological persuasion, and this is where you are very right, i must admit, Russia has succeeded in the psychological battle already, they could invade Ukraine and this can lead to other battles, like China invading Taiwan, the Arab Nations or Iran attacking Israel or Israel attacking Iran. The Global Police which is America, may show the world that they are no longer responsible for the balancing act. America has again told its citizens to leave Ukraine, just like they did in Afghanistan. franchasng: 1 Like |

Ukraine and NATO are the problems, they want to reclaim the lost territory stylishly with the use of force, they are digging trenches beyond the borderline between Ukraine and Donbas. US and NATO should be bold enough to speak out otherwise they will remain stupid and idiots forever. No country on earth can defeat Russia at war. Even Afghanistan will join Russia to fight NATO, just watch. 8 Likes 2 Shares |

Mooh247: Exactly. The EU leaders have to first put their citizens into consideration before Ukraine. Unfortunately, there's nothing they would gain by going to war with Russia over Ukraine but they have so much to lose by going to war with Russia over Ukraine. The kind of protests that would erupt in most of these countries in the event that gas supply is cut off from them and job losses and deaths starts to pile up. The governments would not be able to cope with it. I saw someone up there talking about Netherlands supplying EU gas. That fella doesn't know that the gas Netherlands has, is of a different specification from what Russia supplies, and cannot be used by most EU companies and households and as such, is useless to them. 8 Likes 2 Shares |

Reference: Ukraine conducted a referendum and agreed to join NATO. The west have been busy, skillfully extending NATO borders deep into Eastern Europe since the fall of The Soviet union. This is totally against the agreement between Gorbachev and Reagan.. If they get to Ukraine, they will have the ability to practically undermine Russias military capabilities to project power. They might even deploy missiles there, putting Russia in grave danger. Russia is a big power and should stop this. Putin is right to take concrete actions to stop this. That's how you defend your country.. 10 Likes 1 Share |

franchasng: You are obviously very naive. The Syrian war lasted all the years it did, with the ousted president returning to power simply because Russia and China moved their warships into the region. Do not underestimate other world powers apart from US. Even for conventional war, only Russia, China, and the US have the technology, wealth and population to be considered super powers. So when any of them talks do not act in a haste. India has population, but is poor and technological backward. France, UK, Netherlands, Etc, have technology and wealth, but lack the population to fight any world superpower. Thats why they alway attachee by force to the US. Nato or not, Russian and China coopration can wipe off the US, even though with Nuclear winter occurring in multiple locations around the world. North Korean techs will likely fail direction and come disturb us somewhere in Africa Secondly and in a more serious note, modern history has shown that the super powers never go into direct war where they will fight each other, they only fight wars against smaller non nuclear states, and either stay clear or send rebel proxies whenever another super power is eating up a smaller state. So truly do not expect US to stop Russia invading Ukraine. They will only act with Rhetoric as the cost can be too high. Me self, do not want any world war 3, instead Russia should have Ukraine. After all we have been begging for Nigeria's breakup and nobody gives a rats ass. 9 Likes 2 Shares |

Rugaria:Nuclear weapons are deterrents, but no country would actually want to use it because that would mean the end. But trust me an attack on any NATO country by Russia is an attack on all NATO country including the united states. It would involve military conflict but I doubt nuclear weapons would be deployed 1 Like |
