I still find it difficult to believe that a war in Europe is affecting economies in Africa.
African leaders should be ashamed.

It's not only affecting Africa, check d news, it's affecting economies evrywhere ,even in Europe.

And igboho is fighting for these one.God have mercy.

igboho is a pdp thug

It is only igbos who don’t know his history that take him serious

6 months??

But they said Russia will take Ukraine in 2 Weeks...

What's happing Grandma Russia?

Blame HIMARS... The stuff is deadly. And worse is that Russia has nothing like it in her arsenal

Yet there is another more advanced than it coming in with the new package of the US

RikudoSennin:
Ukraine liberated 20 villages in Kherson? Why is Russia starting an offensive in Nikolaev then? Russia cannot start offensive if Ukraine liberated 20 villages in Kherson. Offensive are now starting in 3 more cities. It is all on telegram, the bombing, the shootings.

One thing this war has made me realize is that i should not trust the western media and research things with many sources.

Why is the war entering it 7th MOnth even when Logistic is just by train from Russia?

I still can't put my fingers on why the reportage of this Russia-Ukraine war is always lopsided.They can give us the figures of lost Russian troops but not that of the Ukrainian army;giving us the impression that Russia is losing the war.

Mumu man. Donkey and he-goat. All the places Russia liberated there won't be an insurgent. Russia clean out every city 100% unlike bastard Americans who didn't do any fighting in Afghanistan and relied on the Northern Alliance to do the ground offensive. You are a big born fool and don't you ever comment on Nairaland again. The Taliban who fought with shovel, granites, headpan, sand and cement destroyed bullshit American chickens in totality and they ran with their tail between their legs. Shango strike you mad for being a slave

Timesup234.... the resident nairaland Islamic terrorist.... America will continue to be number 1, and there's nothing y'all can do about it....

The same Afghanistan chased your Russia out easily and quickly, while America decided it was time to leave.

America doesn't destroy civilians that much like Russia or China, they just get their targets e.g Soliemani, Osama, Al Baghdadi, Zawahiri, Jihadi John etc.... all terrorists...

So shut up and continue to serve USA...

When USA entered Iraq under Hussein, you know what happened ba?

Krismas:
Is Afghanistan and Ukraine comparable?
Who armed the Taliban? Gave dem 100m USD? Conducted training and gave them drones HIMASS MANPADs Planes etc?
It took Russia less time to capture Afghanistan

Why didn't Russia do its homework well before entering such a war?

Even Jesus told his disciples, what king won't do his homework well before entering another man's territory?

iykofias:
taliban rules Afghanistan after years of US/NATO wasting billions of dollars. News had it then that it was an emergency evacuation, they even said they won’t rescue anyone that’s left behind

That's because of the deal with Donald Trump

Onitola2:
can't u see d backing of USA and UK ? It's as if it's between Russia and USA which Putin never envisaged

Then he didn't do his homework well

Gonna leave this here before exiting the thread. The War really exposed Russia.

It's a balanced reporting from New Delhi TV

Oga, they were left for the Afghan Military.

During the 20 years stay in Afghan, why couldn't the Taliban make noise, until Donald Trump entered a deal with them??

No mind the guy. Some people sef I wonder how they think. The talibans are like cockroaches, could only crawl out of their rocks to wreck havoc after America left.

I bet you if the American military starts returning to Afghanistan, those Taliban guys will disappear in less than 1 week. They know it and won't talk about it.

Yes d sole super power, nd Ukraine is going up in flames! nd all dey could do is send weapons.

D only superpower,yet dey were in Vietnam for 3 years! nd came back defeated.

D only superpower,yet Russia has taken a fifth of Ukraine,nd dey keep taking more! nd d only tin d only superpower could do is sanctions...

Maybe dere is a new definition of superpower. Beta u understand DAT d USA itself is one overated Bleep militarily, nd only powerful wen fighting small countries, beta for u.

Dere are no one superpower, dere are only superpowers nd Russia is one of Dem, if u tink it's a ruse, tell d USA to face Russia heads on, make we check something.

They spent 20 in Vietnam not 3 years in Vietnam..

True a superpower will have no difficulty subduing rag tag kalashnikov wielding poorly trained militia in Afghanistan or Somalia is 20 minutes rather than being bogged down for 20 years and eventually leave in disgrace with pics and humiliating videos to back it up.

USA took Afghanistan in 2 months, and stated there 20 years until they decided to leave..

USA took Iraq in 2 weeks under Saddam...

You don't win all the time....

jimetagambo:

Well. The USA wasn't making mouth.

Dey made! infact dey are d masters of propaganda. Russia is nt known to talking too much, Hw many times av u seen Putin make mouth or commenting carelessly Abt d war?

Wat ur reading online is propaganda, sensationalism etc by d USA. Dey are getting tired nw tho.

It does not unravel shìt.

Do you know even America will have a hard time invading Mexico if they faced the same level of sanctions as Russia while other countries constantly supply the Mexican armed forces with weapons and intelligence?

Rest baba... I ain't reading your BS link.

After the take over in 2001... did you see taliban coming out to fight until US made a deal with them after 20 years?

Moreover the going to Afghanistan was the war on terror, and the goal of eliminating terrorist have been achieved... or do you hear of increased terrorist activities like suicide bombing etc, much again?

if Putin decide to use hypersonic missiles and thermobaric weapons in large scale assault against Ukraine, kiev wound be under Russian control within days. But there would be a lot of collateral damages and Putin don't want that.

So when Putin carried out a scorched earth policy and raised a city of over 500,000 to rubble. With many thousands buried in mass graves, as well as thousands incinerated with mobile incinerator trucks.

What about the thousands deported to Russia by force

What was he doing exercising sympathetic benevolence and generosity ❓❓❓�

Russia sorry Putin had lost over 85,000 soldiers it could be way more because this tyrannical oppressive regime control all information.

A country where if you use the term war instead of 'special operation' it's a criminal offence with Jail term. If you protest against the war further jail terms. And if you criticise the Russian armed forces further jail terms. These jail term can be up to 15 year's.

Putin has already lost this war , the number of war crimes is beyond measure.

You cannot just invade a sovereign country because you do not like their changing ideology.

How many civilian women and children have been killed in Ukraine

You are highly misguided and trying to justify what can NEVER BE JUSTIFIED.

1. Putin has used hypersonic missile.
2. He can't afford to use them in large scale because Russia is currently having capacity problem and low in ammunition which will expose the country totally. There are at least 50 rebel groups in Russia seeking seperation and massive Chinese force along the border with Russia. As it is Russia has major capacity problem.
3. You counting on Russia unguarded missiles yet you are not thinking of NATO increasing heavy arms like HIMARS from the current 16 to 200, providing F-16S fighter jets and ATCMS which would take out the Cremea bridge. To remove Russia out of Ukraine doesn't take the west anything. They just want Ukraine to successfully drag Russia to dust. This war will take at least 3 years, perhaps more. NATO is a $40Tr powerhouse, it can play this game as long as it takes. By then, the real effect of the sanctions will begin to surface.

So who was maiming US servicemen and blowing up military sites forcing the US to barricade their embassy in Kabul like some prison for 20 years? Bokoharam?

Why did they run away the way they did. Pictures don't lie.

Biden caused it... I don't know why he did it that way... infact the US had a meeting with the Taliban leaders ahead and they both struck a deadline.

War is not the best option in conflict resolution. dialogue is the way to go. Sometimes it takes over a century to erase the scar of brutal war.

I don't recall USA making mouth about this particular war. maybe they did for other wars. The USA even offered Zekensky a way to escape Ukraine because they also wrote off Ukraine to fall in a few days like most people did. At the start of the invasion, It was on this same Nairaland that people said Ukraine would fall in 3 days. After 3 days passed, some said it will fall the coming Sunday. Now the war is still ongoing.

There are propagander on both sides.
Hence; I am very careful with my post. My last post is even from India and not some Western country as you are speculating.

Everyone is tired because the war is dragging and it seems to be entering a phase of usage of splinter cells to carry out attacks. It's going to drag for a while as long as Russia doesn't pull out.

It became a pointless war the moment Norway and Sweden decided to join the ranks of NATO. But atleast the people of donetsk and Luhansk (pardon my spelling) might be free to join Russia.
