What’s the exchange rate for a bazillion dollar Zimbabwe note? About a quarter US. Must be way less for a Chinese yuan.
I think while we are concerned about Africa, we better wake up to our own backyard in Central and South America and Chinese inroads there, very significant inroads. Russia coming to Venezuela now too.
TV. Needs to fired. PT, purge ALL Globalist Neo-Cons.
I have an African strategy. Take out every single American citizen, and ban travel to and from the whole continent.
He.
Whats the exchange rate for a bazillion dollar Zimbabwe note? About a quarter US. Must be way less for a Chinese yuan.
At the moment:
1USD = 361.9 Zimbabwe dollars
1USD = 6.899252 Chinese Yuan Renminbi
Dealing with African thugs/dictators and tribes men, China and Russia for 'financial and political influence across Africa,' will be a never ending drain on American resources.....there must be a better way.
Real Help instead of takeover ?
Chinese have owned the Panama Canal since Carter surrendered it. We still must ship over 50% of our heavy sea lift capacity thru the Canal in the event of military actions in Europe or the middle east. The dems destroy us a little bit over time
Let China and Russia "have" the Dark Continent. Who cares - Africa always wins anyway.
So Bolton wants a confrontation over this? Good grief.
Arm white South Africans to the teeth so they are not the victims of genocide. Then sign a military alliance with the White South African Government.
Didn’t we try that for a while? How did it work out?
Honestly, you have me on that. If we tried, someone must have dropped the ball. President Trump wouldn’t.
Will nobody stop this Bolton jackass? I have an African policy, how about the same one we had in 1965 ... no Africa policy. There is nothing there but about 1.6 billion uneducated poverty-stricken backwards people with their hand out.
And now Bolton wants to play his “Grand geopolitical chess game” in Africa now. Honestly, I could not care less if China owns all of Africa.
I recently spent some time in Africa and this strategy is needed.

The Chicoms will take over the white owned farms. Remember they need to create 25 million jobs/yr to keep people working and not rioting. The Africans know their game and are happy to play it. Ask the late Julius Nyere.
Let China and Russia play with that tar baby.
Why do you believe that strategy is needed? For extra credit explain to me how the endemic corruption and backward leadership in Africa will adjust to a clear, bribery free, American model based upon a giant military footprint rather than large infrastructure projects?
Last, if there’s some vital American interests there, please explain that.
Ivan was in league with Chavez.
