Liberal West controls world economy for now.
Economic sanctions crashed USSR.

I know it did but this time around the west will feel the heat too, there is no clear winner in this conflict. Even though it might be said that Russia is in a deep financial mess presently we can't conclusively say that this will be the downfall of the country.

For those who's been asking what sanctions can do, this is it....


Putin will likely regret this....

Maybe he will maybe he won't. Like a lot of people here have said he had been planning this for a long time. Let us just wait and watch as everything pans out in the coming days.

By the time the effects of these sanctions reached their peaks, Russia would have been sent back 50 years economically with little or no chance of recovery until the next 50 years.

Are you an economist? How did you get to arrive at this conclusion?

This fight is a two way thing. The west also have businesses in Russia, it's going to be tit for tat.
They have all suspended operations. And russians are majority of those who work in those businesses. So what's tit for tat here?

You should be interested in Nigeria own reserve and you are still surviving and typing rubbish about Russia

If Nigeria has a reserve I am not aware of it. This is international politics, it might be rubbish to you but I am sure that a lot of people here don't share the same sentiment.

The west will encounter difficulties in seeking new business partners. Just recently USA approached Venezuela one of their sanctioned countries for oil. Think about it, isn't that going to give the estranged country an upper hand? Also Venezuela is a Russia ally, indirectly they are still doing business with Russia as the country has oil reserves in Venezuela.

U might be correct... I believe majority Were in support.. and that actually silenced the minority...

I believe the Russian Economists were muted as well... If not, they would have explained to the citizens what is coming...

They will start feeling the impacts of these sanctions in a year or two years to come... it's not dawned on them yet.. embarassed

I think it has dawned on them but the thing is there are still other countries doing business with Russia. Also, local companies are going to have the immediate needs of the citizens met and Russia is self sufficient enough to produce the basics for her citizens.

As long as Russia Troops remains in Ukraine, the sanctions continue and Russia will continue to suffer even if it is till 50 years time.
That the condition from United States and Europe.
Where will Putin get money to sustain Russian troops remaining in Ukraine for the next 6 months, Russia Economy is crippled, their Russian ruble is now worthless than toilet paper,
that's why almighty Russian is now asking china for military assistance and financial assistance, which the United States has threatened China with sanctions if China try to offer any assistance to Russia
China cherish it's Economy than Russia, China can not afford any sanctions from the United States or European Union who are China top biggest trading partners.
Any major sanctions from United States and European Union on China will cripple and Bury the Chinese Economy even faster than the Russian Economy.
China will not want to go that route to jeopardize their own Economy over a relationship with Russia
but shell is still buying russian oil. Nord stream 1 is still running. Continue listening to western media

Don't know why those criticizing Ukraine President can't reason in the line of your statement.
Putin is dragging a whole country down because of blind and somewhat personal vendetta against Ukraine or Ukraine president.

So much for a President that his Ministers are at arm's length and almost everyone is afraid to say the truth. Is that one a democracy again. Putin runs Russia like a personal estate, being a President for a decade or more. So-called Oligarchs are said to be his frontmen for running his businesses all over the world. You wonder why Oligarchs' businesses are being sanctioned everywhere if not that those businesses are principally owned by Putin as a major stakeholder in them. Just a single man.

Yet, it is Ukraine's President who refuses to submit that's the problem.

Kyiv is surrounded successfully. The war will soon come to an end.
There will be a regime change in ukraine

And thereafter you will hold vigils, visit babalawos, carry sacrifices, stand on long queues, beg and borrow, spend millions to get either European visas or American visas.

Certainly you cannot venture to Russia where life is difficult to live.

If Putin does that, the sanctions will last long and cripple their economy more. He is fighting a war he won’t win on long term.

Any Ukrain government imposed by Putin will not be recognised by the West. So what’s the essence of his actions?

Nigeria is a country with over 200m people, poor infrastructures, poor education, poor medical services, etc. We have less than $40bn in foreign reserve, yet people are still breathing and living their lives well. The country has not totally collapsed yet. Things would definitely get a bit rough for the Russians but definitely not the way you all are making it sound.

Is Russia really a democratic country?... Sometimes we need to double-check it again to be sure.... Because it sounds like a country ruled by the military...

Is the citizens actually in support of what is going on... All the travel ban imposed on them by most countries, freezing of international accounts/closing of corporation... social media etc... Do they really like that?....

If they don't like it and the country is truly a democratic country, what is stopping them from speaking up to defend their country from economic/ financial collapse.. Just wondering.. embarassed


There is no democracy in Russia. They have a dictatorial government. Putin is supposed to be in power for 6 yrs but had now ammended their constitution in In mid-January. He submitted proposals for amendments to the constitution and formed a working group to refine the legislation. On March 10, a Russian Duma deputy proposed an amendment that would reset Putin’s presidential term limit clock to zero. A move that would allow him to run for office in 2024 and 2030, and potentially remain in office through 2036. Within a week, Russia’s parliament and regional governments ratified the amendments and the Constitutional Court approved the changes. The popular referendum is now the next step.

Putin is doing everything to coerce and intimidate everyone to do his bidding and to enable him remain in power till 2036 (if he would still be alive by then)
