Who remembers “Kalina”, the deputy commander of the azovstal plant that surrendered or the western media called it “evacuated”

A lot of peeps here don’t know anything about Russia, Hollywood has bleeped most brains here to think USA is great militarily ( mind you USA has never won a war).

Russia is has stated that the more weapons poured into Ukraine, the more the agony of Ukrainian citizens will be prolonged and more Ukrainian territories will be lost.

You don't call a clear and present danger a trap. Ukraine is at Russia's back and very close to its Industrial and Agricultural Heartland. Allowing to either join NATO or remain hostile is pure suicide.

Russia HAD to act.

EU was never going to accept Ukraine into it's fold,if they really wanted they would have admitted Ukraine into eu considering the fact that they will be more useful to them than most eastern blocks they are in eu already. They understand that Ukraine n Russia can't be separated without chaos and they are not ready to risk that but Putin became overzealous since his stooge lost the presidential election. EU didn't react when they took crimea and supported the rebels that ravaged part of Ukraine. Pootin was just stupid!!!

NATO was founded in 1949 because of Russia,

Russia and NATO can't be partner till when this planet cease to exist.

The WW3 has commenced gradually as NATO expansion is the major factor that's

causing destabilization of Europe which will later spread beyond to other parts of

the world. Historically, 1st & 2nd WW started from Europe.

I pray for escalation of WW3 not to happen because of the fear of deadly weapons on ground.
You obviously don’t know what you are saying,how can Nato expansion be an issue when most countries are just running to NATO For protection because of RUSSIA? Do you watch the last week Putins Interview where he said the dismantling of Soviet Union was a mistake and must be reunited? Why do you think Sweden and Finland what to join NATO ? Do you know Russia has once invaded Finland and stole their land? Likewise Georgia
Anyway the only solution to RUssia land grabbing is NATO and nation will keep seeking Nato umbrella till Russia stop disturbing them

No country would have invaded Russia, even the USA is scared of her.
Same was said about the USSR. But Hitler in 1941 didn't read the script.

In Military planning, you don't plan based on sentiments, but rather on realities.

The US has always been interested in invading Russia and clearly developed plans for it.

Research:

Operation Unthinkable
Operation Dropshot
Operation Pincher
Operation Broiler
Operation Offtackle

Russia was never concerned about the EU. It isn't a military alliance.

Russia is concerned about NATO because conflict with it will lead to ruination of itself and also NATO. Ukraine joining NATO (or even intending to do so) was always a redline.

Righteousness2:
The news headlines these days are right out of the Pages of the Bible! God is Warning Us! Wake Up!

Everything JESUS said would signal His coming are ferociously manifesting before us all around the world.

JESUS likened last days event to a woman in Labour. As the labor progresses, the Pains increase in both Frequency and intensity until the baby finally comes.

This is exactly what the world is experiencing. As we get closer to JESUS Return, all the Signs HE gave to us are becoming more Frequent and more intense.

Get Ready people! Get your relationship with JESUS Christ on point. JESUS Christ is Coming!!!

My brother the economy is not doing well, iam not in Russia now but I have been in contact with people that left Russia of recent. Europe with no ban is feeling the heat of the war seriously, prices are 30 to 40% high right now,last 3months there was no cooking oil from Germany to Austria,Belgium and Netherlands. Mind you Russia imports most of what they use, from the technology they used in building their acclaimed weapons to harnessing their oil,motor parts, airline and what have you. Atleast I have been there a couple of time and see their shelves. The problem that pootin had was that his lieutenants lied to him about going to war in other to be in his good books but the response was too shocking for him. Iam not taking sides though but just the reality on ground. Iam loosing also in this whole madness.

Bro stop the lies, Russia does not import “most” of what they use as you call it, their economy is not dependent on importation unlike the west. the few things which they import has been addressed with the introduction of parallel importation.

Please pick a history book about Russia and the west and read before you come to this forum to spread your ignorance.

Mind you I’m well traveled and I can tell you, European countries are feeling the impact of their sanctions more

NATO was not created for Russia.

It was created after the first world war in 1945.
Germany was the Villain here.

Russian became the 'enemy' of NATO & Vice versa due to its government's tendencies.

Note that (technically), the Russian Federation didn't exist until 1991. And former USSR countries (Latvia, Lithuania & Estonia) are members of NATo today.

WW2 you mean?

NATO is sort of a private club of not very agreeable people/countries, who had got together for the fear of the Soviet Union, and kept on against Russia. The only unity these countries have is only on the family picture.

Says who? Things are perfectly fine in Russia albeit the inflation and it is slowing down. Dropped down further today. Shelves are full in Russia, there is food, gas, oil. If you want proof, i can tell my Ruskies friends to send some.

We in the west are the ones suffering for this nonsense war, US officially ventured into Recession today. How about that?

If you need 32 nations to defeat one country, then you are not strong enough. Still not a match for the Russkies.

You literally read my mind!

NATO members are surprised that Russia is still standing tall despite all the equipment and financial aid sent to Ukraine. There's More to this war than people think.

A useless club led by a bully with willing and unwilling crew members.

Despite all their rhetoric, all of them individually and collectively know that any mistake they make in attacking Russia or Russian interests will lead to a devastating conclusion to their liberal and decadent civilisations.

As to the claim on NATO Salesman of the year, Finland and Sweden have been NATO Enhanced Opportunities Partner since 2015 or so. Finland is even a member of NATO's Rapid Reaction Force and they have been doing multiple exercises since time immemorial while being actively courted to formally join NATO since 2010. So nothing changes in terms of their threats to Russia.

What simply will happen is that Russia will allocate two Nuclear missiles each for Finland and Sweden and will militarise the border/Islands surrounding Finland & Sweden. This is separate from certain economic decisions that Russia will take which will be harmful to their economies.

As for Turkey, I hope they got what they really wanted in return for acceding to Finland & Sweden joining.

Nothing spoil.

It means that they (The West) write the rules and others are meant to follow it. That doesn't work anymore as Russia has left the WhatsApp chat. China will soon follow suit.
“but there is something wrong with the west; they consider anyone powerful country a treat to them, and they keep repeating the rule-based order, which only God knows what that gibberish means.” : Now they have turned their attention on China.

But they can invade a sovereign country- Iraq, even bypassing the UN and LYING that the country has WMD , thereby killing hundred of thousands of Iraqis and creating a hotbed of terrorist.
