SarkinYarki:
The solution to all this is to allow Russia NATO but then the aim of NATO will be defeated

That's correct. NATO is essentially an anti-Russia alliance. So Russia ing such an alliance will make its (NATO's) purposes to be meaningless.

helinues:
How many countries can Russia fight at once?

Hitler tried fighting many and lost, this stupid mad man is today Hitler.

chameleon98:
Russia says: "Don't NATO!"

Russia does: <invades non-NATO member>

As they say, actions speak louder than words. Especially actions accompanied by explosions, death and dismemberment.

Can BIAFRA NATO,cos BIAFRA is breaking away from Nigeria and we don't want to make the mistake of Ukraine.

Finland,sweden norway are smaller countries. Too easy to take them out. Were will the run to as refuge

Meninmen:


I don't know what you are saying. But just know that the US will never allow Russia an organization they created to counter the same Russia.

That's your opinion.
I'm saying the fact.

It's not only the US that was against Russia, it was unanimously decided. They saw the future then.
Russia is now doing exactly what the feared

Russia bia, I think that horse has bolted....
The era of threats is over.
What do you have to offer them that is better and more suited to their existence and way of life.... better than what the west has to offer.

Lolzzz. India News? Na Pro-Russia, what do you expect.

But you will believe CNN and BBC? What's the difference?

Finland and Sweden on the beats

anonymous1759:


He’s not ignorant. Aren’t their children not treating Africans like their father did ?

Nobody will respect you if you don't respect yourself first. There are blacks who are well respected by whites because they set the tone for that.

Africans get married to whites and live happily. So, it's not right to generalize your statement. What we are talking here is a single man (Putin) causing so much pain to the world.

Bennita911:
Russia should just NATO

Russia is partially a part of NATO.
google the Russia-Nato alliance. even till this day NRC is still active in NATO

Proflere:
really? He didn't even do anything to you. The people that invaded Africa and made Africans less human, killed so many of our promising leaders e g Lumumba and rendered our economy useless.. all of them didn't die miserable deaths oo. Russia never for once invade any African country and you think they are your enemy because they are enemy to the same people that looted your resources (the west)? Calm down nah.

This is 21st century oga...you calm down.

toobusy:
I don't understand this idea of telling a sovereign entity what to do and what not to do........ what's with Putin and this dictatorship?

As in ehn, in this modern world o. The thing just tire me.

Why is Russia fretting like a greyhound suffering from an exceuciating skin disease? Several European neighbour countries are of NATO yet there is no problem. doesn't have problem about 's hip of NATO though they are world powers and neighbours. Why maddening about based on your self-inflicted mental instability which you like to see as an international political calculation? That's one of the dangers of dictatorship. A weakness it is. Putin is going down faster than imagined.

Alamkir:


But NATO won't allow it. because The secondary aim of nato is to destroy Russia

This is just plain lies.
NATO is entirely a defensive minded organisation.
The seeds of which were sown when the then Russia started a land grab after the collapse of Nazi .
Thus meant forceful adoption of Communism which many states just did not want.

Today Communism is dead but the land grab remains Putin's lifelong ambition.
Yes, Russia was once enticed to NATO but the big stumbling block was its weak democratic institutions.
NATO will never adopt a member state that is not fully democratic. That is why States like Poland were late to the party as they took a bit of time to settle.

NATO cannot afford to have a member state with a sit tight dictator as he will hijack the alliance for personal ambitions.
Russia should move towards democracy and it will be brought out of the cold, period.

The only time NATO has used offensive force in Europe was in the Balkan wars of the 90's when it had to protect the fledgling nations of Bosnia and Kosovo against the genocidal aggression of Serbia. It did that purely for humanitarian reasons. And the warlords responsible are well tucked away in prison having been judged by the ICC. All was done to International standards and best practices.

I said the US didn't want Russia to Nato. And you said it was because Russia didn't meet the conditions. I then ask you which conditions did Russia not meet? You began blabbing. Then you brought up the issue of UK trying to prevent Soviet Union from breaking as the reason NATO did not allow Russia to it (which doesn't even make any sense)

The reason Russia can't Nato is because the US (and other NATO countries) will not allow Russia the same organization that was formed to counter Russia. This has always been my point.

Why I emphasized only on the US was that the US basically controls NATO. If the US agrees for Russia to Nato, Russia will Nato. If however, other NATO countries agree for Russia to Nato and the US doesn't agree, Russia will not Nato.

Jeromejnr:


Haba!!! Make una dey calm down with your lies and misinformation na...shuooo

How did U.S save Russia from Hitler when it was USSR that was responsible for winning the war against hitler?

Hollywood don too brainwash Africans sha...

Everything America America. How many wars has America fought and even won compared to countries like Russia?

Oga, without the lend lease program of the US that helped the Soviet Union, they would have lost the war.

Read what the former USSR leaders said.

You won't read abi?? Be calling them small countries Maybe you think it's only by having nuclear weapons.

Thank you for that.
It attempted to again some two decades ago if memory serves me right but again the problem was a fear of dictatorial hijack.
What people fail to realize is that though America is the strongest member of NATO it does not interfere in the running of member countries. All it does is encourage democracy and civil liberties amongst its but it does not seek to hijack the institutions of .

America has worked with difficult NATO in the past. It never sees eye to eye with for instance on most matters yet it never seeks to undermine their security.

Why can't Russia rid itself of dictators, become democratic and take its place around the table of that security alliance.

vivaciousvivi:
Such an irony to find that the invasion of Ukraine is having a direct opposite effect to bordering Non NATO countries in the region.

They won't listen, their actions is making more nations NATO

Have you ever seen a European not to talk of African that’s opposing the west that’s liked ?
If you dance to their tone even if you’re a terrorist they’ll like you .

PUTIN is making the world a safer place . Making the world a multi polar system . PUTIN has exposed the west and her allies that they’re biased . The world is not safe with America and the west . Power should be shared for a stable world.

He said PUTIN!!
When was the last time a US president
who is a dictator in power for 20 years unilaterally invaded a sovereign nation??

Stevenson1:


Russia can't afford another invasion anymore.
I don't think they have enough finance or human power for that anymore.
Also, sister countries are looking at what they are doing in Ukraine and they think NATO will be more desirable/ reliable than staying neutral cos staying neutral got Ukraine nowhere except annexation of their cities and towns by Russia.

You got it wrong homie.
Ukraine are not neutral hence the invasion. During negotiation between Ukraine and Russia one of Russia condition or demand is the neutrality of Ukraine.

checkolatunji:


Russia can't afford any fight in another 10yrs with the way things are going. No financial power at their disposal for now and they are losing out on Ukraine invasion already. Putin won't want to toll that line again.
I believe it's initial gra gra

There armour have been exposed to US javelins with serious devastation. Even Turkish drones are destroying entire Russia tank columns.
They were actually being overrated.

Bennita911:

Then the aim and objective of NATO is in limbo and somehow been jeopardize

Do you listen to yourself. Because Russia didn’t colonise anywhere now. Putin should start bullying the world and also threatening brimstones and nuclear weapon or you think this reasons are justifiable? Or you think if nuclear start raining, Africa won’t get hit?

Don’t let your hate for west blind you against the intake beast from Russia

Read what the former USSR leaders said.

Another misconception you have brought out that a lot of people in these parts fail to realise because they simply do not read.

At the time Hitler launched operation Barbarossa Stalin barely had a standing army, practically no means to fight and completely obsolete equipment.
Why. He had a non aggression pact with . Satisfied that will decimate the allies he waited to partner with Hitler to share the spoils. But when Hitler lost the war in North Africa in 1943 he tore up this agreement because he needed the petro resources only Russia had within reach so he attacked.
Stalin's quickly sent word to the United States for help and after lots of consideration and debate in Congress Teddy signed the aid pack to both Russia and later China to send them equipment which they deployed to buy time to manufacture theirs in massive numbers.

I was saying last week that it is exactly what is happening in Ukraine today.
If tomorrow by a miracle Ukraine is able to hold out and survive with all the gear supplied by NATO and Ukraine becomes a super power, folks back here will not history of how they were aided in many ways to survive.

Such is the nature of the history of the world. America's biggest headache today in the West remains and remains belligerent, intolerable and non condescending to America for one reason. They were the principal help to the United States in their war of independence from the British all those hundreds of years ago. Today the British are closer to America than .... but has seen their naked.ness.... and vise versa in the second world war.

SarkinYarki:

Most of you are just too gullible.... NATO was in reality founded to challenge USSR if you don't know ..Many Russians Presidents from Gorbachev to even Putin have made request to NATO but have been denied by American Presidents

If you are not gaulibe, you read my response to the post before you came gragra to coment, you can still go back and read properly before jumping up and down

Russian Official Warns Finland, Sweden Against ing NATO March 10, 2014 A Russian official on Tuesday warned Finland against ing the European Union, a step that would leave the Nordic country isolated among the European Union member states Russia’s ambassador to Finland, Alexei Borodavkin, said NATO hip would be “the biggest threat to the Finnish national interest” if the country adopts the European Union’s common currency and a common foreign policy NATO allows its member states to have their own currencies, so long as they the military alliance This month the Finnish government is expected to make a decision on whether to become a full member of the European Union or keep the European currency, the euro Borodavkin cited the need for monetary union as a reason to resist integration into NATO “It’s impossible to get the same result by just being part of the European Union

Thisis2raw:
Russia needs to calm down, before they make them self enemy of the world

"He who fights for truth is hated most bruh"....Putin knows what he's doing...The world is full of shit!!...can't you see!...This whole thing will bring about some kind of change...it will look all rough now,but in the end,there will be a global reform...These EU,UK,US are deceivers,liars,they are cunning,they made things so bleeped up in the world ....they made it so difficult to travel from even Naija to London.

This is not true.
The principal criteria for ing NATO is that a member nation must be fully democratic, which Russia isn't.
These are excerpts:

'At the Madrid Summit, NATO invited Poland, Hungary, and the Czech Republic to begin accession talks with the Alliance. In the Summit Declaration, NATO also stated that "NATO remains open to new under Article 10 of the North Atlantic Treaty . . . The Alliance expects to extend further invitations in coming years to nations willing and able to assume the responsibilities and obligations of hip, and as NATO determines that the inclusion of these nations would serve the overall political and strategic interests of the Alliance and that the inclusion would enhance overall European security and stability."
While there is no hip checklist for interested nations, NATO has made clear that candidates for hip must meet the following criteria. Interested nations must:

Uphold democracy, including tolerance for diversity;
Be progressing toward a market economy;
Have their military forces under firm civilian control;
Be good neighbors and respect the sovereignty of other nations; and
Work toward interoperability with NATO forces.
Again, while these criteria are essential, they do not constitute a checklist leading automatically to NATO hip.

New must be invited by a consensus of current .

Decisions to invite new must take into the required ratification process in the member states. In the case of the United States, decisions are made in consultation with Congress.

The key determinant for any invitation to new is whether their ission to NATO will strengthen the Alliance and further the basic objective of NATO enlargement, which is to increase security and stability across Europe.'

Note the bolded.
Russia falls short.
