Since Russia invaded Ukraine on 24 February, every nations especially political leaders must learn these  costly lessons: 

1 No one is really interested in a peaceful settlement. All the NATO nations including US are giving military weapons to fight Russia. If they continue to provide military weapons to Ukraine, the war will prolong.  

2 No one knows when the war will end because the Ukrainians are so determined to defend their country and Putin is so determined to win.  

3 Both Ukraine and Russia are suffering losses. Ukraine will suffer more losses eventually. 

4 The longer the war is prolonged, both warring nations will lose more human lives and property damages. Currently more than 4 million Ukrainians have gone out to nearby countries as refugees. About 10 million Ukrainians are displaced. More than 600 properties including 48 schools, hospitals, railway station etc have been damaged. 

5 Economic sanctions on Russia are counterproductive. As a result of the sanctions, the prices of food, oil and gas have shot up to hurt themselves. They have been using oil and gas from Russia and they cannot find alternative source of supply so quickly. India and China can buy gas and oil from Russia at cheaper prices. Moreover, Russia will not be feel the effect of the sanctions so soon. 

6 US is supporting Ukraine under false pretence. US is encouraging NATO nations to donate weapons to Ukraine so that US can increase weapon sale, as US is the biggest weapon manufacturer in the world.

7 US being the largest oil and gas producer in the world will benefit when the prices of gas and oil war continue to go up due to the prolonged war.

8 When UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson went to Middle East to ask OPEC to increase production, they refused to do it because they want to sell their products at higher prices. 

9 No one can win in any war. The economies of the 2 warring nations will suffer. The war has been going on for about 8 weeks. The 8 weeks damages will take decades to reinstate. 

10 I predict Russia will win because Putin’s fate depends on the outcome of his Ukraine invasion. If Russia loses, Putin will definitely lose his position as President of Russia. Eventually he will threaten to use nuclear weapons if Ukraine does not surrender.   

   

 

11 US President Joe Biden calls to put Putin on trial for war crimes over Russia mass killings in Ukraine. When he is pointing his finger at Putin he forgot 3 fingers are pointing at himself.

The poor pays the most for this war with skyrocketing commodity/food prices, which they can ill-afford.

There is a principle from the Word.
Nothing can happen without the approval from the Holy God. Everything that happened to an individual, a company or a nation is because they deserved it, for good or for bad.
You can check/investigate it, you can locate the reason or the accumulative reasons. Your country is suffering, an individual encountered financial misfortune/lawsuits/ declining health/life being snatched away, all of these eventualities were supervised by God from Heaven.
All of us will get what we deserve, for good and for bad. The righteous will be rewarded but the wicked will suffer and be destroyed.
No contradiction at all.

We are dealing with President Putin who is a Judo/Karate guy, macho, shirtless on a horse...nuclear powered nation. So to speak, those USA/Europeans clowns (far away from God...gays/transgender fellows, approved abortions, hypocrites, enslaved others, torturing others, enemies of God..) have miscalculated Putin's stake.

A Christian Orthodox worshipper is proud of his tradition and there is no liberalism in it and no feminism with nonsense .


Putin is not a base ball boy like Imran, Encik Ghadafi or Saddam that they can be bullied.

Putin will not submit to them for sure. Lastly, Putin might as well release the nuclear bombs into their faces.

Whatever NATO and US are doing now maybe trying to bring the world to their interpretation of WORLD ORDER. Is Ukraine president doing it right by instigation? There is no indication whatsoever Zelensky wanted peace in that region—the size of economy and military might are beyond comparison. The alliance help will only destroy the country further and collateral damages to the rest of the world.

Let me give my humble advice to these war monger leaders. Having sanctions will not work, it will only bring hardship not only to themselves but to the rest of the world. To be effective: US and NATO should ban future trading of oil, coal and grains which the aggressor country is producing, further they should subsidise the commodities that are doing collateral damages to rest of the world. This is the only humane thing to do, other than that it is close to being criminal.

Will the West and US do these for rest of the world.. if so, then I will believe what they are doing is for the betterment of the world and being genuine and honest about it.. As it is, it only lead us to believe US economy and its currency are in ‘BIG’ trouble, they cannot plug the holes unless there is a war somewhere and have a crisis. US, UK and Australia are world major producers of Oil, Coal and Grains, will they do it or just reaping the benefits by creating this crisis to have status qua.

How low is their filthy life, the US/Europeans..."Russians soldiers raped the Ukrainians women, genocide in Bucha, bombed the wet markets, kindergartens...", western media faking all the doctored damages. BTW, in any wars, who played them by the rules. When Nato assisted the USA to destroyed Libya, did they played by the rules, people went to wars were because the rules can not be followed, so do expect damages in all sort when nations fighting each others.

But these sanction on the financial and business are seemed criminal in nature. The damages in huge for every country. Even friends of Putin are also being targeted. If you are befriended Putin, you are my enemy, how "kindergarten" are these clown? Check his friend, Roman Abramnovich is also suffering? Your money in their banks/land are all being frozen/like confiscated..

Enough lah, these Portuguese, Spanish, France, USA, English...now you touch Russia or China, you will get it.

US is the black hand behind the skirmish prior to the outbreak. Why ? invite Ukraine to join NATO { Russia has repeatedly draw the red line over Ukraine {immediate neighbour or any neighboring countries } joining the American led NATO block. Think how America will react if Russia places it's forces at Mexico

The EU leaders are "Brain Death" or bribed to obey to one Master only.
Their pockets are full, they have good life; why border about the suffering of the mass?
Russia may have suffered in some ways,their Roble plunged initially but now rebounded to $1 = 75 Robles, Up from 85/86 previously!
Putin is a smart ass. The longer he stands firm, the more his Roble will rise.
He has many more clouts than oil and gas to play about.
A Blessing in disguise!
And also, a different prospect emerge for the future of the American $ from now onwards.....
