Well yes, but a coup needs popular support. If France paid a fair price for the nigerien uranium, the coup could maybe have been avoided in the first place and the chance of it succeeding would have been lower.
There is a massive russian infowar op pushing Propaganda atm on tiktok etc. Targeting African people, who so far haven’t been subjected to such scale attacks before.
Im going to predict there will be results. Increased fascist tendencies and hate toward eu and close neighbors for infighting. Looking to close off resources from global free markets and cause a refugee wave toward eu again.
One thing the Tankies have right is that foreign capital grifting and local leaders keeping in power off of that is what caused this. There's no actual ideology behind these military governments but wanting to be the new grifters though.
Well the west was sucking their resources with the corrupt elected puppet government. A military government isnt any better but way better than stagnation and colonial abuse. The west rudes on their moral high ground when it advantages them. Russia =west. Ukraine(change to pro west government)=Niger now
Dude did u even understant what i told you. There should be no spheres of influence. Putin can fuck himself but dont be blinded by the hate that u dont see what the french deals have done for niger
I’m amazed at the lengths tankies will go to argue for overthrowing democratically governments and supplanting one colonial power for another one that comes packaged with Wagner and Boko Haram.
another one that comes packaged with Wagner and Boko Haram
Wagner maybe, but I don't think -- I haven't been closely following the situation, mind -- that Boko Haram and the military coup leaders are particularly friendly. The coup wasn't an Islamist takeover.
Democracy is good no question at that but a corrupt government acting as a proxy to superpowers or rigged elections(russia) are wolfs with a sheeps mask now the wolf has bite another wolf and this will keep happening till they figure out democracy but if outside powers get involved it will be another iraq or iran or afgan.
