To those that did not read the full article, what it summarily says is that the US is no longer imposing itself on other countries. Unlike before when they were neo colonialists, now they are seeing other developed countries as much needed and equal allies. This a good thing moving forward for the rest of the world especially for we Africans, giving the current political climate, it seems that the US has learnt to be humble. 224 Likes 15 Shares |

The more America leads, the greater the risk that Putin can sell this to his own people as a fight between Russia and the US.honestly Russians arent really in fighting mood ATM. And it would likely remain that way until or unless any external forces challenges russia militarily. Or interfere in their internal affairs. I can imagine that this is why the US haven't DARED trying to overthrow putin. Whenever any country gets on the nerve on the USA, what they do is first is try to overthrow their president, replacing him with a friendly one. They've don it many countries. They've even tried it with Erdogan, the president of Turkey. I was surprised that they've never contemplated trying such nonsense with Putin and this article totally explains wht. According to the CIA, the Kremlin is the most coded place in the world. Putin has even started clearing off some elements that he doesn't trust fully. The moment he notices that the USA are trying anything, he would be sure to leak it to the Russians who wouldn't have any of it. So the hands of the US are tied right now. The more they decide to interfer in Russia's affairs, the more the Russian people would become anti-west which I'm sure they wouldn't want. This is very funny. Yeltin, the man who was the president of Russia before putin, was a certified western ass licker. The man did as he was told to do by the USA as they constantly humiliated Russia. Note that while this man was ass licking the ass of the USA, he was still criticizing their move to expand NATO towards Russia despite the reason why NATO was crated, the USSR was no more. When putin took over, he was fairly pro west as well. His attempt to join NATO was thwarted. NATO needed an enemy and if russia joined, pretty much NATO would become a useless bloc. https://foreignpolicy.com/2022/01/19/putin-russia-ukraine-nato-george-robertson/ Which is why Putin asked in Germany, 2007. "Are we still your enemies that you keep on expanding your alliance towards us?" It is obvious that after the dissolution of the USSR, Russia legit wanted to form ties with the USA and the west. But USA felt like they won the Cold war hence they can treat their former rivals which was now a shadow of his former self, however they like. They became the proud fućks that they've been known to be. Meanwhile, If USA can manage to overthrow putin and replace him with a pro western president like they did with Ukraine, believe me they will treat Russia with more respect than they have since the fall of the USSR. But the thing is, it is too late. Lavrov, 2 days ago said "the illusions of Russia forming ties with the West is all but over now". Meaning, instead of trying to create ties with the West they will instead with China and others in Asia and South America and even Africa. Russia has been of late increasing their presence in Africa. I don't know if it is just me that notices it 236 Likes 22 Shares |

Tmberwolf1:That is what the bbc article is trying to sell but we know better. America is not humble in this case because it has learnt the art of humility. The doctrine of MAD has simply made it humble. It has weighed the human and civilization cost of intervention and cowed down. If it were a country say in the caliber of Serbia, they would waste no time to intervene militarily. 134 Likes 11 Shares |

Even in Baltic states, they know within theirselves that USA will not risk any Baltic for NY, CA. USA is humble because of Nukes. USA have never invaded any country with nukes especially those ones that can destroy USA also. I knew USA military are good against defendless nations when USA pushed Georgia just like they did Ukraine to a war with Russia and all of a sudden, USA said the war is not USA war ![]() 87 Likes 8 Shares |

There is just no way for them to win this fight against Russia. Either they place a no flight zone thereby bringing about WWIII which will involve nuclear weapons. Or they come up with a favourable negotiation which Putin will accept. Apart from that, nothing...all these sanctions hardly work for a food and energy independent country. Rather it will affect other countries highly dependent on them. 69 Likes 10 Shares |

The mistake the US and the west are making, is treating Russia like an outcast/enemy. The political and security stability of Eastern Europe can only be effective with the west cooperating with Russia. No matter how much they make Russia look like a villain, Russia would still hold significant influence in what happens around eastern Europe. The earlier the west realizes this, the better for the world. The US and Europe should draw Russia closer rather treat her as an enemy. One more thing, if Russia successfully defeats all the western coalition in Ukraine, that would be the beginning of the decline of NATO and western influence globally. Countries from the Middle East and Africa would start shifting towards Russia for security alliances. They have proven themselves in Syria and it has helped boost their image globally. 80 Likes 8 Shares |
