AI summary
West Africa is at the forefront of geopolitical tensions marked by military coups and the rise of nationalist governments challenging neocolonial practices, particularly those of France. These governments seek to control their rich resources like gold and uranium for economic growth and national sovereignty, angering Western powers advocating neocolonialism. The expulsion of French soldiers from Mali and Niger, both pivotal in Western military operations, underscores the regions’ significance. Despite Western claims of authoritarianism, nationalist governments enjoy strong popular support, resisting intervention and forging alliances with Russia and China. The West exaggerates Russian influence while projecting their neocolonialism. Geopolitical conflicts manifest the struggle for autonomy in West Africa.
78% of niger population support the coup
Where did that number come from? Hpw did the pro west president win in previous election if 78% of population doesnt support him? Whats thediffereencee between french colonism and russian colonsim ?
nono you don’t understand when russia does it it’s good because if fight imperialismists then not imperialist, silly
Polling numbers within dictatorships mean jack shit.
But now they mean something ? ( Assuming a poll was made to get the 78% figure)
What? It’s a military dictatorship now. Even if you actually poll people, most wouldn’t dare to say the truth. Protesters were already shot by the military.
Lol
