Say, what’s Russia doing there, anyway?
In recent years the Wagner Group, now operating within the so-called African Corps, has become an important instrument of Russian foreign policy in Africa. It establishes relations with governments, providing military services and regime security in exchange for mining concessions and political influence. Rather than building real defence capacity, the group profits from instability and prolonged insecurity.

Russia is assisting the Alliance of Sahel States, at their request. The question is, why is Ukraine there, working with Al Qaeda?
Russia is assisting the Alliance of Sahel States, at their request.
You mean seizing control of them:
In the year prior to the August 2020 coup in Mali, Russian information operations—executed through inauthentic social media accounts, influencers, and Russian state media amplification—were instrumental in fomenting disillusionment with the democratically elected government. Following the coup, Russia was the first foreign actor to recognize the junta—and has remained the Malian regime’s top patron since, shielding it from sanctions and pressure to return to civilian government.

Desperation. It’s not a choice I agree with, but Ukraine did not choose to be invaded by Russia and is doing everything they can to fight back:
Ukraine, of course, is in a very different position than the U.S. was in Cambodia and Syria. Its defense against Russia is not a war of choice. Rather than trying to run a global empire, Ukraine has been looking to make the best use of scarce resources and hit Russian interests beyond the front lines.

Every fucking time. Look into your sources sometime.
Desperation. It’s not a choice I agree with, but Ukraine did not choose to be invaded by Russia and is doing everything they can to fight back:
“scarce” resources like unlimited NATO funding which includes weaponry and jets?
Also you literally see that they are working with Al-queda. Working with them in order to kill innocent people in Africa so that Amerika and friends can take over it. And you think it’s actually justified.
Ukraine wasn’t “forced” into this war. History did not start in 2022. The coup in 2014 which installed Banderite-Nazis into the government who then tried to ethnically cleanse eastern-Ukraine for almost 10 years until Russia intervened is entirely on Amerika and NATO.
Ukraine isn’t “desperate” to join Al-Queda. The war can be over but the West does not want that. So instead people are kidnapped every day to be forcibly thrown into the meat grinder busification.org
The people of Ukraine are not desperate to fight the war, they don’t want to. But people like you, who are Nazi sympathizers want this to continue, to the very last Ukrainian.
Can’t believe Russia would invade the Ukrainian border in Africa like this
You’d be surprised how many upvotes I’m getting from imperialism enjoyers 😆
Russia is helping liberate the Sahel. Ofcourse Ukraine is trying to help neocolonialist Europe and their ISIS thugs.
Neat way to spin “Ukranian regime joins neocolonial forces in Africa”
Ukrainians are working for the USA empire to undermine African independence.
They complain that Russia is trying to oppress them and they need all these resources, but they have surplus soldiers to send to Africa to keep Africans from developing their own countries.
Yes, but CNN obviously isn’t going to frame it that way.
“But how does this help Ukraine win in the frontlines?”
Zelensky: “The front?”
