  • Moscow's Clout in Africa Grows: Nigerian Protesters Wave Russian Flags
    Nigeria has arrested dozens of protesters who were seen waving Russian flags. The flags were raised in some northern Nigerian states. The Nigerian government has also detained 7 Polish citizens, who it says were caught waving the flags. Abuja seems terrified of the prospect of pro-Russia sentiments in the country. Russian flags were also raised in its neighbouring country, Niger, while a coup took place there last year. Meanwhile, Niger and Mali have severed diplomatic ties with Ukraine. Is Moscow's clout in West Africa growing?

      Did you pick up a history book this or the last century?
      Nigeria was granted its independence peacefully. Not due to the violent overthrow of any government.
      However during the cold war, China shipped millions of cheap Type 56 rifles, that looked like AK47s, all over Africa, arming primarily ethnic militants. A new form of colonization. One where money could be gained from conflicts and the weapons trade. Russia would begin arming the other side with their later-developed AKMs, to gain a slice of the weapons trade money.

Sometimes the governments of the world do not accurately represent the citizens of the world. The world we all live in is not simple.

By helping charity and humanitarian groups, these same groups can then help you also.

In this context, economic cooperation makes sense and is beneficial. Military cooperation in this context does not make sense and it will limit economic trading partners. There are not many nations that want to do business with nations that are officially invaders.
