wahming, Why are we posting tweets instead of actual news articles?
NOT_RICK, 
So are you just going to spam bullshit about Russia and Africa across Lemmy all day? ECOWAS wants the Niger junta out, this isn’t just some western meddling.
jimmydoreisalefty, Not spam, just news. Only did it for 1-2 min, didn’t take that much effort.
Took longer to convert links to achieve links.
BombOmOm, 
Russia called Ukrainians their brothers just last year. Russia does not treat its “family” well.
bernieecclestoned, Ok, good luck with that!
toothpaste_sandwich, Yes, Russia trying to annex Ukraine is far from imperialistic, of course.
MostlyBirds, 
But didn’t you know? Imperialism against European countries doesn’t count.
