Even at that, it is instructive that the US failed in Vietnam and Afghanistan.
Oh o... U see that... I don't want to say the US is over hyped... But all am saying is they have been defeated before and can still be defeated... Yes by Russians..
Vickyvice: what. Tryna say is them born Russia well they should fire just one bullet, and see d end or russia. China and that midget Kim Jon un of north Korea go pee in pant. Comparing Russia to u.s is same as Tyson fury and a.j They are no and will never be mates
Nonetheless they should all je brake right now because its weird how things can escalate suddenly. If you read the history of the world wars, e go be like devil hand dey inside the matter, wahallahi. Although something tells me there is an arms contract for Hunter Biden at the bottom of all this noise.
I personally don't see it in Russian interest to attack Ukraine. And yes that Hunter guy and his father. I don't trust them
Righteousness2: The Holy Bible, which is the Undiluted Word of God is being unraveled before us.
Wars and Rumors of wars, Earthquakes, Volcanoes, dry lands flooded, fertile lands turned to desert, Pestilences, famines and so much more, rattling and ravaging the world in unprecedented Frequencies, just as the Holy Bible says.
JESUS is Coming... I Repeat, JESUS is Coming.... Time is tooooooo Short..
There is Only one way to be Saved from the Calamities that will hit this Earth. Surrendering to the Lordship of JESUS Christ is the only way to be Saved.
I suspect you're a Putin fan though. Characters that love unsavoury characters like Trump tend to be enamoured of the Putins of this world.
silverlinen: This putin no go allow Ukraine rest Na to dey bully the innocent small country nai dey sabi. But since it's european problem and also a show of power strategy,then they should sort it out themselves
1939, Germany invaded Poland. Some ignorant people said it was their problem, until it became every ones problem when it led to World War 2!

Stop watching CNN, it's not good for your mentality, that's mental slavery, just see what an educated person with internet is writing? Please get the Russian views also
This world is evil. They find it easy to spend millions on war and destruction but can't bring same money out to improve the lives of the less privileged.

Lawyer Hunter Biden somehow pushing Putin to amass troops near the Ukrainian border? Oh, well.

Go and read. russia gat no fault na us b the problem
greggng: I listened to puttin and I Believed him more than the war rumours USA and nato a spreading. Putin said they are nuclear powers and the understand that other countries have such capabilities.. that they won't risk eu security..cos they can't exist in isolation. This comment alone convinced me
He even said in a scenerio of war...there won't be winners.

Oga no want any neighbouring country to join NATO, making it easy for his country to be surrounded by US allies|If Ukraine succeed in joining NATO everyother country around russia will opt the same....But allowing that to happen will make russia weak, because it will be so easy for US and his allies to closely monitor russia activities
Oil price will jump. Massive jump. But e no go reach us.
Your uncles in Abuja go wack am wella. With banga soup.
If there's an all-out war, I think IBB2 (another oil windfall embezzlement) will be the least of our concerns. Global supply chains will be disrupted - that will affect the delivery of refined petroleum products to Nigeria, which will affect food prices. Medicines too will be affected. We may be starving in 5 weeks, max. Note that Ukraine is a major exporter of grains.
Awon weree de o. Wednesday ko January ni. If Putin does not invade Wednesday then all the people still believing in the western nonsense propaganda should accept they are all foolish including everyone spreading their news. WATCHING anything western news equals you are foolish. All of you!
Since I stopped watching CNN, my reasoning has changed. I used to think they were giving us real news
You don't like russians because they oppress sovereign nations? I challenge you to go and start reading the history of USA. I almost guarantee you that you will start liking the russians, as do I. Because like you, I used to be brainwashed into thinking the russians are the bad guys.
The USA did much, much worse than Russia is currently doing. The western media's tries to cover all of it and I'll tell you they actually succeeded. But then, if you go deep, you will definitely see books or even articles that explain their brutal history.
Anyway, since you claim russia doesn't respect other countries sovereignty. Let me give you a few examples of when USA attempted and did far worse of what Russia is currently doing with Ukraine. USA even killed their own citizens to make it seem like it is other "sovereign" countries that did it, to justify invasion.
in 1898, for instance, the US exploded USS Maine in Havana killing 266 American mariners to blame and declaring war on Spain.
Please I advice you to Google operation north woods. Operation Northwoods was a proposed false flag operation against American citizens that originated within the US Department of Defense of the United States government in 1962. The proposals called for the CIA operatives to both stage and actually commit acts of terrorism against American military and civilian targets , blaming them on the Cuban government, and using it to justify a war against Cuba. Ukraine...sound familiar??
Now you see that Cuba that I mentioned? That country Don see hell fire for USA hand. I'm willing to write about the suffering that was meted upon them by USA, but I'll leave that for another day. Let me talk about NATO, USA, RUSSIA & UKRAINE.
So many of you nairalanders actually think Russia is the aggressor and the cause of the current tension. Well that is false! NATO and the USA are both the problem. Here do you know why? Well, the West been led by the USA had been expanding its DS Military infrastructure footprint throughout Europe; deploying NATO nuclear missiles, U.S. missile defense systems and special forces along Russia’s doorstep. Putin hasn’t been toppling governments in Eastern Europe, installing proxies, or deploying Russian missiles and Soviet defense systems. As you nairalanders make it seem. It’s been the West, moving East. Since the end of the Cold War, the West has been systematically cutting Russia off from the rest of the world, using NATO.
What’s happening in Ukraine today is the same thing that happened in 1962 during the Cuban Missile Crisis. please go and read about the Cuban missile crisis if you can. America put nuclear missiles in Italy and Turkey. The Soviet Union ‘RESPONDED’ by putting missiles in the Caribbean (via submarines) and Cuba. America learned about the Soviet missiles in the Caribbean and Cuba and freaked out bc of the extremely close proximity of the Soviets’ military infrastructure. With Soviet missiles that close, America would not have sufficient time to analyze, evaluate and respond to a potential threat. America went nuts, demanded the Soviets immediately remove the missiles. The Soviets had made the same complaints and demands about America’s nuclear missiles in Italy and Turkey. The United States said those missiles were defensive. After the Soviets responded in kind putting the same in the Caribbean and Cuba, America said the missiles were an aggressive threat. The Cuban Missile Crisis had begun. The Soviets were not the aggressors, they were the respondent. The United States wasn’t having it and began plans to invade Cuba, put 100,000 plus troops on Florida beaches, set up an illegal Naval blockade in the Caribbean blocking all ships from reaching Cuba and the United States, flew Spy Planes over Cuba (which got shot down, killing Air Force Pilot Rudolph Anderson). The U.S. also attacked Soviet submarines which were lawfully patrolling in international water and hadn’t fired on anyone. Pretty hypocritical, right? The Soviets were simply responding in kind, and refused to back down. In the end, in order to avoid nuclear war, America agreed to remove its nuclear missiles from Italy and Turkey, and thereafter the Soviets agreed to remove its missiles from Cuba, restoring the status quo and balance of power to the position the parties were in before America dramatically expanded its military footprint. Today, we see the EXACT SAME scenario happening. The West has been building up its NATO footprint, putting NATO weapons, nuclear missiles, missile defense systems and special forces in former Soviet states. Ukraine, Georgia, Kazakhstan we’re a step too far for Putin inasmuch as this is literally on the doorstep of Russia. Putin has amassed his extraordinary military machinery and has told the world that NATO missiles are NOT going into Ukraine. Putin has also demanded the West remove its missiles from the former Soviet states surrounding Russia. Sound familiar! Putin will win this battle, NATO and the rest of the world will agree to restore the status quo and remove NATO missiles. If the Biden / NATO missiles currently on their way actually enter Ukraine, you will see Putin respond with the use of his vast military.

Mostly true but I doubt we rely on Ukrainian grain to survive over here.
tctrills: no one doubts Google but if you read the article you posted, you would learn that Ukraine has not been accepted by nato.
In all the talks Russia has had with Biden over Ukraine the Americans have rejected all call to rule out Ukraine membership of NATO. Should Russia wait until this happens b4 making preparations? Will that not be medicine after death?

Lalasticlacla, Mynd44 move to fp for people to be enlightened
The fact is, Russia as a country (with just population of about 80 million people) is sitting on a massive 17 millions kilometers squares of landmass that is very rich in minerals and weather. The USA and its allies want a share of this Russia's massive land. But with the emergency of the new world power in Asia, China, they fear that this dream will never become a reality for them. Russia alliance with China has never been stronger. Bar any racial sentiment that can emanate between them, both countries can rule the world for many decades to come.
The USA and its Western allies understand this reality and try to use Ukraine as a bargaining tool against Russia. The endgame is to force the former Soviet power into signing some treaty which will severe ties with its Asian friends. China is the primary target of USA in all of this conflict.
For you to type this nonsense, your skull must be empty after America and great Britain had stolen all your natural resources in the name of democracy, you still have the audacity to type this fallacy in their defence? If as you claim, America can deal with Russia, why haven't they dispatched their disabled troops to Ukraine to actually "Deal" with them there? If this was another country that was threatening another country that share border with them. I can guarantee you that USA would've threatened them with military responds already. But since it is Russia, they're not even willing to rescue their own citizens in ukraine once Russian hardwares start rolling in?
As usual the headslammers will choose russia after'all their terrorists all use ak47 supplied by russia whereas the US is busy taming them with bombs from drone and guatemala bay prison. Noting sensible in your worthless enlightenment just for your average almajiris.
