04:29pm, Thursday, 03'rd Mar 2022 Opinion Nigeria
Q. What is NATO doing at Russia’s doorstep? A. Trying to stop Putin from rebuilding the Soviet Union, which was almost an equal rival with the United States in the past. Q. Is NATO right to do this? A. No. Because of an old agreement in which the West agreed not to move any closer to Russia, which is eastwards. Q. Did Russia agree (in the Budapest memorandum) to guarantee Ukraine’s independence and never to invade them? A. Yes. Q. Is America the strongest nation in NATO? A. America is not just the strongest nation in NATO but synonymous to NATO. Q. What happened in 2014 that may explain the current conflict? A. A Ukrainian President loyal to Russia (Viktor Yanukovych) was toppled in a Yellow-Vest-type of revolution. Russia believes that this revolution was instigated and sponsored by the West. Q.

UN General Assembly denounces Russia over invasion
12:28pm, Thursday, 03'rd Mar 2022 Online Nigeria
The United Nations General Assembly has overwhelmingly voted to reprimand Russia for invading Ukraine and demanded that Moscow stop fighting and withdraw its military forces, an action that aims to diplomatically isolate Russia at the world body.The resolution, supported by 141 of the assembly’s 193 members, passed in a rare emergency session called by the UN Security Council while Ukrainian forces battled to defend the port of Kherson in the face of air strikes and a devastating bombardment that forced hundreds of thousands of people to flee. The text of the resolution deplores Russia’s “aggression against Ukraine.” The last time the Security Council convened an emergency session of the General Assembly was in 1982, according to the U.N. website. Russia was joined by Belarus, which has served as a launch pad for Russian invasion forces, Eritrea, North Korea and Syria in voting against the resolution. Thirty-five members, including China, abstained. While General Assembly resolutions are non-binding, they carry political weight, with the yesterday vote representing a symbolic victory for Ukraine and increasing Moscow’s international isolation.
