In geopolitics, might determines right. If you know what that means, you will understand why has not been allowed to have an army by the US and why the US can force to commit economic suicide. Might determines right.

You have a point out NOT totally TRUE.

For instance, the US has long been pushing to up their military spending & consequently their NATO contributions but they have NOT. Because of their avowed reputation from the past.

They () only just pledged to commit more after Russia's invasion of Ukraine. IF you're correct why didy they respond to US persuasion before now?

EU fell right into US trap!
The Ukrainian crisis has nothing to do with Ukraine. It’s about and, in particular, a pipeline that connects to Russia called Nord Stream 2. Washington sees the pipeline as a threat to its primacy in Europe and has tried to sabotage the project at every turn. Even so, Nord Stream has pushed ahead and is now fully-operational and ready-to-go. Once German regulators provide the final certification, the gas deliveries will begin. German homeowners and businesses will have a reliable source of clean and inexpensive energy while Russia will see a significant boost to their gas revenues. It’s a win-win situation for both parties.

The US Foreign Policy establishment is not happy about these developments. They don’t want to become more dependent on Russian gas because commerce builds trust and trust leads to the expansion of trade. As relations grow warmer, more trade barriers are lifted, regulations are eased, travel and tourism increase, and a new security architecture evolves. In a world where and Russia are friends and trading partners, there is no need for US military bases, no need for expensive US-made weapons and missile systems, and no need for NATO. There’s also no need to transact energy deals in US Dollars or to stockpile US Treasuries to balance s. Transactions between business partners can be conducted in their own currencies which is bound to precipitate a sharp decline in the value of the dollar and a dramatic shift in economic power. This is why the Biden istration opposes Nord Stream. It’s not just a pipeline, it’s a window into the future; a future in which Europe and Asia are drawn closer together into a massive free trade zone that increases their mutual power and prosperity while leaving the US on the outside looking in. Warmer relations between and Russia signal an end to the “unipolar” world order the US has overseen for the last 75 years. A German-Russo alliance threatens to hasten the decline of the Superpower that is presently inching closer to the abyss. This is why Washington is determined to do everything it can to sabotage Nord Stream and keep within its orbit. It’s a matter of survival.

That’s where Ukraine comes into the picture. Ukraine is Washington’s ‘weapon of choice’ for torpedoing Nord Stream and putting a wedge between and Russia. The strategy is taken from page one of the US Foreign Policy Handbook under the rubric: Divide and Rule. Washington needs to create the perception that Russia poses a security threat to Europe. That’s the goal. They need to show that Putin is a bloodthirsty aggressor with a hair-trigger temper who cannot be trusted. To that end, the media has been given the assignment of reiterating over and over again, “Russia is planning to invade Ukraine.” What’s left unsaid is that Russia has not invaded any country since the dissolution of the Soviet Union, and that the US has invaded or toppled regimes in more than 50 countries in the same period of time, and that the US maintains over 800 military bases in countries around the world. None of this is reported by the media, instead the focus is on “evil Putin” who has amassed an estimated 100,000 troops along the Ukrainian border threatening to plunge all of Europe into another bloody war.

All of the hysterical war propaganda is created with the intention of manufacturing a crisis that can be used to isolate, demonize and, ultimately, splinter Russia into smaller units. The real target, however, is not Russia, but . Check out this excerpt from an article by Michael Hudson at The Unz Review:

“The only way left for U.S. diplomats to block European purchases is to goad Russia into a military response and then claim that avenging this response outweighs any purely national economic interest. As hawkish Under-Secretary of State for Political Affairs, Victoria Nuland, explained in a State Department press briefing on January 27: “If Russia invades Ukraine one way or another Nord Stream 2 will not move forward.” (“America’s Real Adversaries Are Its European and Other Allies”, The Unz Review)

There it is in black and white. The Biden team wants to “goad Russia into a military response” in order to sabotage NordStream. That implies there will be some kind of provocation designed to induce Putin to send his troops across the border to defend the ethnic Russians in the eastern part of the country. If Putin takes the bait, the response would be swift and harsh. The media will excoriate the action as a threat to all of Europe while leaders around the world will denounce Putin as the “new Hitler”. This is Washington’s strategy in a nutshell, and the whole production is being orchestrated with one goal in mind; to make it politically impossible for the German Chancellor Olaf Scholz to wave NordStream through the final approval process. Hi

Oga go and rest and stop littering everywhere with your nonsense article as if you truly know international politics, rest cos I don't see any sense in all this you have written here and how this war affects that

Daddyyin:
Some idiots are taking Russia as a joke because they only read from the western sources that have been concealing the truth. Ukraine damages are irredeemable. I have seen videos of thousands of Ukrainian troops surrendering to Russia. The gullible ones are calling Puttin clueless but Ukraine is bleeding heavily

Oga keep quiet what do you know about politics, the Russian military has been weakened by this war and I can imagine if Ukraine had been brave enough to attack them on their soil, Russia too by now will be counting it's losses, cos this is a military that is assumed to be the second most powerful in the world and still cannot capture the capital nor the president, obviously they are all dullard and senseless from the president Putin himself to his security chiefs cos they obviously do not have the military intelligence to fight an international war. I just imagine if they were now fighting two or three nations all together, Russia would have been brought to it's kneels. The smart thing to have done would have been to make the capture of the president a top priority and this would all be over and I give kudos to zelensky a man without military training, for standing up against the stupid bully Putin who is too senseless to fight a war. I actually thought he was a smart and intelligent man, but this war has shown how foolish and senseless he is.

Benny6944:





How do you feel if Russia becomes world power than Usa? how has Russia helped your nation so far compared to USA?

Who sold weapons to us when we needed it to fight bokoharam? Who helped most African countries to get liberated from the grip of colonial rule? Go and make research about this and come back

Kingsnairaland:
ing Russia or not is a matter of choice for Africans to make and not your baseless imagination. UK, and Europe lacks the moral authority to preach us about democracy and human rights. Our minds are still fresh about the colonization, slavery and the worst human rights violations one could think of. Just look at the type of democracy imposed on Libya.


God bless putin God bless mother Russia..

Just stop this stupid God bless Putin, God bless Russia, God is not as foolish as you to bless him or his nation for sending innocent souls that could have achieved greatness to him, you can bless him yourself but stop bringing God into this, I can just imagine Ghanaians telling God should bless buhari for the hardships and insecurity he's brought on Nigeria, so stop all this nonsense

Benny6944:



which country doesn't produce all that?? OP tell me one produce you use from Russia( boldly labeled made in Russia)?

Funny tell me one you have seen made in USA.

I don't reply those who abuse I have a lot of living to do I don't have time to waste.

Asour:


Yes, you are right about America being the first.

However, they (America) developed it first.
And BECAUSE of what we saw in Hiro & Naka, the World has seen how dangerous it was to use a Nuclear weapon.

They (Japan) attached the USA unprovoked.
You don't attach nations unwarrantedly in the manner Japan did. Be a aware that the Japanese Empire was a Colonizer, not the 'cool' Japan you see today. The US 'calmed' them down.

Yes calmed them down by killing millions of innocents. Could they have done like Russia by giving the civilians the chance to evacuate?

As much as I condemn the invasion by Russia, Zelensky political inexperience has partly put his country in this position.

He should have opted out of NATO hip and allowed the "breakaway" Russofied parts greater autonomy, rather than engage in this war that will leave it in ruins, no matter which way you see it.

Russia will come out badly whether it wins or loses, due to the very harsh sanctions presently placed on it, and this does not include the cost of reconstructing Ukraine, monies which will be squeezed out of its huge "dormant" foreign reserves.

Professional Military from Russia. Myopic mofos call you weak and bluff just because you’re not shedding much blood than they expected . Death is inevitable in war the Only thing you can do is minimize it.

At least some person's here are Thinking.

Don't mind the fools here. As if the Russian mission was to just go and kill everyone and not to hit strategic military points.

So far, so good, Russia has fulfilled its mission in Ukraine and no NATO hip - not at least in the next 10 years.

okeysoninv:
in Ukrainian sailor voice," Russia orc f**k you". are you tired of throwing gravity bombs at azovstal . you should bring nuclear weapons too. azovstal is a fortress that can never be crumble.

It is people like you that would make Russia destroy every living thing in Maripol.

Slippy:
Now they care about Ukrainian lives? smh

This war is far from over. Ukrainian resolve is so strong

Stupid resolve. They are all going to die in the Azovstal steel plant. 80% of them want to surrender but 20% remaining have been ordered by Zelensky to shoot them if they do. 4times Ukraine have tried to airlift a few of them by chopper and the Russians shot down all the choppers. There are some real big fish among those people who the Ukrainians do not want the Russians to apprehend and show to the press.

You’re the one saying nonsense here. I don’t need to convince you with words but the Ukrainians are in deep trouble. Your reliable western sources will never reveal that to you

The Russian army aviation also hit 84 military facilities of the Ukrainian army.

– control points and two strong points were destroyed.

– ammunition depot near the town of Vasilkov in the Kiev region.

– 22 firing positions of equipment and 47 clusters of infantry of the Ukrainian army.

Kingsnairaland:
Azovstal steel plant... This is an old news that place has been captured the rest there in the underground will eat hunger when their food finishes.





Russia are only invading because of the West’s foreign policy. What do you think the UK would do if Russia started setting up missiles in Ireland . Do you think the US would do nothing if Russia set up in Mexico? The Us nearly went to nuclear war when Russia tried to set up in Cuba. All the West had to do was leave Ukraine out of NATO and all those people would still be Alive.

The west didn't force Ukraine to fight, their comedian president did.

Nah weh Putin still dey open the corridor of mercy for una,una no go embrace am..oo.
By the time weh the corridor of mercy go close n heavy bombardment go dey happened,the West and their sympathizers in Nairaland go dey shout human rights violation,war crime up and down.
Shebi now,una dey see the call to surrender peacefully as sign of weakness abi?
We shall see!!

ignoring you USAzzLicker

Is there something else you can say

Adjovi:

Innocent? Sure. That was bad by the Americans.

But you're jumping the story.

The 000s killed are Pearl Harbour by the Japanese didn't do anything to the Japanese too.

In the port of Mariupol, the body of a senior sailor of the marine corps of the Ukrainian fleet Ivan Anatolyevich Krapovoy was found, who was shot from behind, by his own.

He had no equipment, but there was a leaflet under the body - the conditions for surrender. Obviously, at the time of the murder by "his own", he was going to go out to the troops of the DPR and save his life.

Kingsnairaland:


Funny tell me one you have seen made in USA.

You should cover your face in Shame for this nonsense.

Kingosytex:

Wot does Putin need Kiev for? Is Kiev dat important? Odessa is Lagos of Ukraine. All port cities in the east are the economic centers of Ukraine. Its sense to take dem first.
Meanwhile check wot Putin is doing to Azov

BERLIN, April 19. /TASS/. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz on Tuesday said the Russian armed forces shouldn’t be allowed to win in Ukraine.
He made the statement at a news conference following talks that Western leaders held by video link. The leaders included presidents Joe Biden of the US, Emmanuel Macron of , Andrzej Duda of Poland, Klaus Iohannis of Romania, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, Italian Prime Minister Mario Draghi, Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida, European Council President Charles Michel, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg.

"Together with our partners in the EU and NATO we are completely united in the opinion that Russia must not win this war," Scholz said. The chancellor addressed Russian President Vladimir Putin directly, saying, "Stop shelling Ukrainian cities. Allow to establish an immediate ceasefire and withdraw your troops. Stop this horrible war".
