KillerCrocodile:


The same RT that could not tell the world that the Warship attacked by Ukraine has SUNK...

Even the Russian defence ministry has confirmed that the Warship is now swimming like the Titanic....

I dont really believe any of their propaganda as I regard as it as Putin's alternate twitter handle

But when it comes to news like this, i wait for them to confirm it

Biodun556:


All money you mentioned are they free or loan?

Doesn't concern you

Better than whatever you and your god Putin planned for them

Ukraine will rise from the ashes finally free from Russia

Let them endure it once and for all

Less people have even died in Ukraine than what Boko haram and Bandits have killed in Nigeria

Face your darling president the dictator

Like Putin like Buhari

Hahahahaha

Kriss216:
So, people still dey do Best Friend for this country


No friend is the best. They're all the same.

Apply caution if you truly want to live long.

That is your own point of view

Biodun556:
Russia now fighting US/NATO. Ukraine is gone

Cry me a river

You are just pained that the ego of Russia have been deflated

For small $750 million

Hope you are aware of the $13 billion

Even the $1 billion from from IMF

You evil people just want the world to abandon Ukraine so that you people can come and rant that Putin is a strong man

If Putin wants to fight NATO, he knows what to do

If NATO wants to fight Putin, they know what to do

Your cries and Nairaland rants against terrorist killers will not change a thing

Whatever way, its still bad for Russia

1. If its accident, thats high incompetence during an active war

2. If it was hit by Ukraine with all her missile defence system, that will be more shameful

Putin overestimated what his military can do

They kept feeding his ego blowing news thinking he wont be mad enough to actually start an unnecessary war

reason he is purging the FSB now

Baby Stalin

Is it in RT news?

If not, forget it

gambojimeta:

100%

Russia has gone to war with Georgia and now Ukraine.
If Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia were not part of NATO, the mad man would have invaded them as well.

The expansionist tendencies of Russia was why NATO was created

Now the paranoid maniac is crying about NATO expanding as if it was USA that sent the hunger that scattered Warsaw pact

If Putin was the president of USSR, he would have invaded any member that wants to pull out

Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania were part of USSR cos Red army have already occupied them in 1940

Czechoslovakia was even forced back to Warsaw Pact in 1968

Truth is, no person with clear eyes will want to be allies with Russia

omis1:
That’s what d kremlin midget fail to realize ,his aggressive way is d reaaon his neighbors keep joining nato

Putin fan boys will invade here soon to blame USA

I don’t blame, they think Finland is another poor country like Ukraine

Putin have met people who are ready

Thought he wanted to invade them

Now he is threatening nukes

Finland's pro-NATO former PM said he was 'giving up hope' of joining the bloc, but now Putin has done the job for him

Finland's former prime minister said he was giving up on his hope that Finland would join NATO, but Russian President Vladimir Putin achieved it by invading Ukraine.

Alexander Stubb, who was prime minister between 2014 and 2015, told Insider in a phone interview on Thursday that he had been an "advocate of Finnish NATO membership for the better part of 30 years."

But his views did not get majority support due to reasons like Finland's history with neutrality and the fear of retaliation from Russian.

That changed when Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24.

'Grateful' to Putin

Stubb said the idea of joining NATO did not have majority support in Finland before the invasion, but "all of this changed pretty much overnight on the 24th of February when Putin and Russia attacked Ukraine.""Putin has only himself to thank, you know. I should probably be grateful to Putin, as a strong advocate of Finnish NATO membership," he said. "I was giving up hope."

"But everything changed on the 24th of February and, and Putin is to be thanked for it."

Stubb said that being motivated by the invasion of Ukraine was "brutal a way to join NATO," but that he believes that joining the alliance will increase Finland's security.

Putin 'has made Russia weak again'

Stubb said that Russia's decision to invade Ukraine was motivated by Putin's trying to restore Soviet glory and weaken Western alliances like NATO and the European Union — both of which have stood by Ukraine in the war.

Putin has framed the invasion as a response to NATO's possible eastward expansion as well as the false belief that Ukraine is not a real country, but part of Russian history and culture.

"Putin wanted to prevent Finland and Sweden from joining NATO. And now because of his actions, they will," Stubb said. Sweden is also considering joining the military alliance.

"So in his sort of quest to unify Russia, and make Russia great again, he has made Russia weak again, and will go down in history as one of the biggest failures of Russian leadership," Stubb added.

Finland is close to joining NATO

Prime Minister Sanna Marin said Wednesday that Finland would decide whether it will pursue membership "within weeks, not within months."

Stubb said the invasion meant Finland had to contemplate its location as Russia's neighbor with a long, 800-mile border between them.

Stubb said he thought the ultimate argument in favor of joining NATO was that it would bolster the country's security.

He said people also had the sense that "we never want to be left alone again, as we were in World War II." Finland was at the time invaded by the Soviet Union and forced to give up some of its territory.

Finland has traditionally kept a policy of neutrality and staying out of military alliances, but Stubb said that kind of stance can no longer work as the fight against Russia now involves energy and the economy.

”Neutrality, you know, sounds like a nice [idea]. But there are moments in life when idealism meets reality. And this is one of those moments," he said.


Stubb said he didn't think Finnish people and politicians were panicking in wanting to join NATO, but that they were motivated by what he called "rational fear."

"I think the logical conclusion is that if Putin slaughters his Slavic brothers, sisters, and cousins in Ukraine, then there's nothing stopping him from doing that in Finland as well," he said.

Russia has threatened Finland with retaliation if it joins NATO, but Stubb said the country is well prepared for any attack.

If Nato does not exist in the first place, there would be no need for this crisis in the first place. Let me put it another way. If Nato adheres to its promise of not expanding an inch eastward, then there would be no point for this. Don't forget Nato was created because of Russia, so Russia sees it as an aggressor.

You don't protect yourself at the expense of others. Then all of you will not be safe. If Finland and Sweden thinks protecting themselves means being in Nato, then they made it worse.

Was it NATO that scattered Warsaw Pact?

So you can't tell NATO to disband

NATO is what have kept Europe safe so far from themselves and Russia

Dalil8:


NATO (30 countries) ** not just the US.

And it took them 1 month 1 week and 4 days.

From USA to Iraq

From Russia to Ukraine

Consider both logistics and you get yourself who is really a super power

JosephXavier:
Europe is gradually turning into middle East all because if US trying to arm European countries against Russia and under the disguise of NATO

Russia are seriously fighting back but those countries don't know that they are being sacrificed as pawn

Their citizens are the ones being murdered and their territory being destroyed

They should continue

So it's better for them to wait till Putin invades them?

The only reason Russia have not invaded some former USSR is because they are members of NATO

Praxtech:

Your pretense at knowledge is disgusting. Study and gain knowledge. This thread is not for dirty researchers or hollow minded ones.

You are so empty you have nothing to offer aside insults

MaximoneyXchang:


They were building it on Soviet Sharing & agreement ! Same way US were building theirs in Turkey on NATO sharing and agreement!

Again, read this below

At least you quoted NATO, name the military alliance and why it was been done in secret

Do you know Castro initially rejected the offer by Russia.



Below have nothing to do with what we are discussing

He will destroy Twitter if he buys it

What is pushing Russia to believe he can defeat Europe still amaze me

Hitler had more balls and weapons by 1939 standard than Putin has today

Nuclear weapons cannot be counted cos even Russia wont fire one

How many missiles does he have to take entire Europe?

Without USA supply to Russia in WWII, they would have been finished by Hitler

And should Russia go to War with Europe under EU and attack NATO countries

He will be fighting Europe and USA

Such stupidity.

Nbotee:
This proves there's now a change in approach and strategy which simply confirms that they underestimated the Ukrainians and have been surprised with the resistance they faced

Of course, a purge is ongoing in FSB

Putin won both the war and battle after he amassed troops at Ukraine border

Only for him to gaffe

Appleyard:


The inflation side shows some governments are hiding real data. A friend in the US said that groceries that he used to buy at $40 is now $100. How is that an 8.5 percent increase in inflation?

Which city is your friend staying?

What particular grocery is that?

ericmani:



Has Russia attacked Finland in anyway? You have to understand that NATO is wooing this people, it’s not that they woke up and want to be part of NATO.

Finland and Sweden cited Ukraine invasion as their major reason

Both are members of EU

Russia invasion of Finland will bring into full scale war with Europe

Many with economies larger than their own

Even USA will not win such a war

Read to understand why the U.S deployed nuclear weapons in Turkey!

Why won’t Cuba be also allowed to ally with the Soviet Union?
US refused selling oil to Cuba, forcing them towards the Soviet Union yet they won’t allow them relate with who is ready to Provide them with petroleum, security and good trade relations??

USA nuclear weapons were deployed as NATO sharing mechanism

Its clear and even Russia knows how many they are

On what military was USSR building nuclear silos in Cuba in secret?

In secret

Why hide it if you think you can do that legally?

ken6488:
read about the failed bay invasion



Cuba is a sovereign country so it doesn’t need to explain to usa

We are talking about the Cuban missile crisis

Its different from the failed bay invasion and I'm not trying to justify the action of USA on that

If Cuban was in good terms with USA and wanted to join an allegiance of defence with Russia, it would have been a different thing

Both countries were having tension, then you sneaked and started building Nuclear silos without anyone in the world knowing

It took a spy plane from USA to discover that

Every USA nuke in Europe is recorded and the number known by everyone

Putin Fan boys are clowns

Deal that was concluded in 2020

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was right

I love what he did

[b]And in the year of 1962, U.S. spy satellites discover that Cuba has allowed the Soviet Union to build nuclear missile bases on the island. [/b]In response, U.S president John Kennedy demands the Soviet weapons be removed and orders a naval quarantine of Cuba, igniting a thirteen-day standoff. With the threat of nuclear war on the horizon, the United States negotiates with the USSR via back channels. As the crisis nears its third week, Kennedy secretly agrees to withdraw U.S. nuclear missiles from Turkey within a few months if the Soviet Union withdraws its missiles from Cuba. Kennedy also pledges not to invade Cuba. Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev accepts the deal and announces that he will order the missiles removed. The following July, Kennedy prohibits U.S. nationals from traveling to Cuba.

USA have nuclear weapons in Turkey under NATO sharing arrangement

It was never situated in secrecy

On what basis was Russia already building nuclear silos in Cuba when they are in security tension with USA?

On what military arrangement is that?

You would have compared it if Russia discovered that USA is secretly building nuclear silos near to their borders

The only thing that will cause religious crisis is if it concerns Muslims which is what OP is trying to point out

You even blamed the christian as if you will blame the Muslim if it was the other way round

It's people like you that drum for wars not OP, he is a very tolerant gentleman

Blame the Christian abi

I will wait for the army to make an official statement
