Another tip off is the the county’s name means “shrimp”. (The edible sea creatures.)

Probably because it has the second-lowest population density in the world.

It is times like this I really enjoy the Russians they play a rough game, and a few more pirates will soon be mysteriously missing. Just about everybody hates pirates except in the movies, so the world will ignore whatever the Russians do. Even the French won’t say a word.

That was my thought. I hadn’t got to the point where I drug out the map yet though.

I actually have dealings with Cameroon and was reasonably sure there was no coastal area.

“I really enjoy the Russians they play a rough game,”

I too like the way the Russians respond to attacks against their citizenry.

Knowing the Chinese, that will likely end up happening.

>I guess news spreads slowly in Africa because after what happened recently pirates messing with the Ruskies is a dead pirate.
It must spread REAL slowly - remember what the Russians did when their guys got kidnapped in Afghanistan? They grabbed some Afghanis and sent them back in pieces.>
It was Lebanon. In Afghanistan they were dropping LGBs right to a local Al-Qaeda leaders’ windows.

As for that exact case in Cameroon I doubt there will be any effective reaction. There is no Russian military in this area and no any kind of significant Russian influence also.
