which sovereignty? They expelled France to embrace the toes of putin through wagner’s afrika korps (and that brought some problem in the country that an ex russian propagandist is compiling for La Haye. Problems like: increase of civilian suicidal rate by bullet in the back and self made rape)
Russian Central Africa talking about sovereignty. Their leaders are making all the same mistakes their ancestors did in trusting an imperialistic power and it’s going to end the exactly the same way.
I mean when choosing between two imperialist powers choosing the weaker one does increase your independence, and between Russia and France France probably has more clout in Central Africa.
On the other hand Wagner is more likely to take your entire family hostage if you go off script.
Then Chad kills them for it. Wagner mercs are experts at dying.
Honestly, was France acting imperialistic in any of its former colonies? I never heard anything bad coming from France’s “allies”, except for that one island that still is under direct french control.
The works of Verschave and Beti reported a forty-year, post-independence relationship with France’s former colonial peoples, which featured colonial garrisons in situ and monopolies by French multinational corporations, usually for the exploitation of mineral resources. It was argued that the African leaders with close ties to France—especially during the Soviet–American Cold War (1945–1992)—acted more as agents of French business and geopolitical interests than as the national leaders of sovereign states. Cited examples are Omar Bongo (Gabon), Félix Houphouët-Boigny (Ivory Coast), Gnassingbé Eyadéma (Togo), Denis Sassou-Nguesso (Republic of the Congo), Idriss Déby (Chad), and Hamani Diori (Niger).
