WW III ?

[im posible]

World War III is the worst possibility and if it does happen then the victims will be more than World War II considering that currently technology is far developed, especially nuclear technology. I am worried about this use of Nuclear, what if many innocent civilians will also be victims. This is terrible!

I see something here, US is simply the main focus not Ukraine!

Well, if you're asking whose fault is this, it's mainly Americans'. NATO, whose leadership is the US, keeps the expansions in the last two decades. Romania, Moldova, Poland and Lithuania, that are around Russia, are members of NATO. The US wanted from Ukraine to also be part of it, something Putin would definitely not want to as it'd block him from the black sea.

Putin isn't going to stop with the bombing until Ukraine becomes theirs. He's already referred to Ukraine as Russia. If the US doesn't step back and admit defeat, Putin's going to stretch it to the extremes. If that's the case, then it's a WWIII confirmed.

So why is he bombing Russia and killing Russian children?

He wants to redraw the map I guess? What's your opinion?

And I want a pony for Christmas.  We all want something.

What Putin wants is actually irrelevant.  Why?  Because to achieve his mad man dream he would have to kill millions of people.

And the world would not allow this, not in Europe.  The Soviet and Nazi occupations are still fresh in the memory of decision-makers in Europe.

Once he starts killing civilians en masse, this will lead to his fall from within Russia.

I predict that because of this conflict, both the Belarussian and Russian regimes will fall.

PS. You cannot kill an idea of freedom.

[moneystery]

if russia is really kicked out of SWIFT, I'm afraid world war III will happen, money talks in war.

From what I have heard, they have been kicked out of the swift system but only partially:

Oil and gas have so far been exempted from Western sanctions on Russia."[/i]

The European Union actually has a fairly large dependence on Russia in the energy sector. Until the first semester of 2021, the European Union imports 36.2 billion euros of natural gas products, of which 46.8% comes from Russia

what kind of sanctions are these?  the EU is afraid that if the gas supply from Russia stagnates they will be overwhelmed....

The European Union needs gas from Russia and Russia needs money from the European Union, so war sanctions are just a mask Lol

Now that Ukraine has signed and requested to be part of European Union, I don't know what's going to be next with Russia's move. Russia got Belarus on his side while Ukraine is now receiving the aide and help that they're asking before.
AFAIK, there's still another round for the peace talks that shall happen within the next days. I hope that 2nd round of the talk will result in a fair and peaceful result to end this war.

Things will get into the worst situation when each of those countries will drop a nuke and don't expect it as the vintage nuke dropped in Hiroshima. Nukes today are way more destructive and have a wide range of damage after it blows. As we know, there are some more today, the secret weapons they were hiding will be tested once a country will join the current war. I don't know about you guys, but I hate the idea of living in a war zone. If only I'm the one who will decide, I just want to live peacefully until I'm gone.

[cryptoperkele]

Surprisingly, Finland might be next.  This guy is nuts.

He is nuts, but i don't think they would invade Finland, i mean USSR already tried that and suffered miserably. Also Ukraine had a long crisis that putin used as an excuse to invade. Finland however is very stable and weirdly thanks to Crazy putin now it feels more united then ever as we have a clear common threat. We are most likely joining to NATO too as public opinion has now strogly shifted towards it.

In Finland we are not that afraid of invading but a nuclear threat and ww3. Some people from Finland i know have already left fighting for ukraine. I feel that best way for me to contribute is to keep working and pay taxes so we have stable society.

What it comes to WW3, i've never been this scared about it. I don't think it would happen but i didn't think that Crazy Putin would invade either. Actions from Putin seem just too crazy and unpredictable.

[Sayeds56]

I doubt very much that this is the beginning of a WWIII, at most the beginning of another cold war but I don't think it is even that.

It must be clear that a WWIII will soon end with atomic bombs on both sides, and although I do not trust much in any of the leaders involved, I doubt that they are such imbeciles as to kill humanity by playing to see who gets more cocky.

Absolutely right. WW3  is impossible because the Nuclear weapons in possession of major world power is so much that if only 10% of it is used, survival of human will become impossible on earth planet, it will be turned in a huge grave yard so no leader can ever think of using it literally but only use it as deterrent .  What we are witnessing in Ukraine is nothing but Russian attempt to readjust its position in International power play and challenge world order rules set by USA  and its Allies.

To be honest, as I watch how things unfold, I realized that no matter the reason, me heart still stands with Ukraine and it's people. I mean, it applied for NATO which may have infuriated Putin (of course along with the things that you mentioned) since it gives favor to the west but so what? Isn't Ukraine an independent and free country? Why does it have to do what the Russian government says? Ukraine clearly doesn't need anyone's permission to join an alliance or for whatever decision they want to make. Russia is just being a bully. And because of this ego and personal reasons, a lot of people are suffering, lots of loves lost. This is not right. I hope Putin would just wake up from his delusions and stop making things hard for everyone.

It's actually Gon be a month since they invaded Ukraine tommorow.
Putin has said that you must pay with the Russian Ruble if you want to get gas, I see he's trying to make their rubble gain its value after huge sanctions placed on them.

Joe Biden as well will be in Europe tomorrow to have a talk the G-7 nation's, I see more sanctions will be placed on them to disrupt them economically and financially.

There is no chance of world war-III. Because the world and superpowers are aware of the destruction of world war-I and world war-II.How much havoc and death were there and much sufferings were there due to this war. I think Everyone should promote peace and the war between Russia and Ukraine should end and all countries make efforts for its solution without war Because there great loss of innocent people.

While a large scale war similar to World War II is highly unlikely, it's not an impossible scenario. All it takes is a wrong move, cross that imaginary line of using nuclear weapons, and we're doomed. Let me also point out that during the Cold War, humanity was actually facing the threat of a nuclear war, which was literally one step from happening.

As I said, chances are that the whole incident will remain between Ukraine and Russia, however, that doesn't necessarily mean that there is also a small probability of a larger scale war.

I think you are right, the probability of a third world war with the use of nuclear weapons is now non-zero. The current version of Russia's military doctrine seems to allow for the possibility of a pre-emptive nuclear strike in response to an external threat if Russia deems it essential to the security and very existence of the country.
