A Beluga Whale nicknamed Hvaldimir, after his strange harness prompted suspicions he was a đŸ‡·đŸ‡ș Russian spy, has been found dead in the southwest of Norway.

The whale’s carcass was discovered floating off Risavika Bay in southern Norway on Saturday by a father and son who were out fishing, Norwegian public broadcaster NRK reported.

Hvaldimir, a combination of the Norwegian word for whale, “hval”, and the first name of Russia’s President Vladimir Putin, was first spotted off Norway’s far northern coast in 2019.

His man-made harness, with what appeared to be a mount for a camera stamped with the words “Equipment St Petersburg”, fuelled speculation that he was a “spy whale“.

Norwegian officials said Hvaldimir may have escaped an enclosure and been trained by the Russian navy as he appeared to be accustomed to humans.

Moscow has never responded to the speculation.

Poor countries with no economic pull like Niger & Chad dey boot US out of their country.

Now the US no fit order any country around thanks to Russia. Soon only them go dey use their dollars, everybody go face him own currency.

The US na laughing stock of the world, no longer respected, talk more of being feared.

Russia opened the eyes of the rest of the world.

So the West is killing innocent animals out of nothing but Fear-of-Putin paranoia but Xianjin should not kill octopuses for food, Singh is a heathen for eating dogs and Amoda is barbaric for killing & eating snakes.


Okay.

I still wonder why everyone believes Russia is this evil genius. Who can even spy on god.
The Soviet Union created lots of enemy during their reign and Russia will be blamed for those atrocities.
This same fate awaits the united state if she losses her seat as the top Dog. The united state has created lots of enemies, even among allies.
The US hegemony will soon collapse, it can’t last another 50 years.
They will still be number 2 and powerful, but the East and global south union will gives them a hard time.
I believe the USD will still be the global reserve currency for a while longer.
If you’re in a place of influence today, make una do jeje oo.
the Soviet empire.
British Empire.
Roman Empire.
Othman Empire.
Ancient Egypt empire.
You can be great and not be a bully.
Let’s be kind to families and colleagues.

Better than dying like fowl in Nigeria.

At least , the whale was even beloved.

The life of Russian whale is more valuable than an average Nigerian.

Perhaps you would love to be a Russian or UK spy bird or whale in your next life since you think the life of the whale was better than yours as an average Nigerian.
