Do we give any aid to this country?
Not any more nor is Great Britain. I forget when the USofA stopped but it was some years ago when Mugabe started to rustle not just cattle but the farms they lived on as well.
This purchase of fighters is such a laugh if it wasn't literally taking food away from the people. With inflation rate of 700 to 1000%, you know that Russia isn't accepting the native currency, Zimbabwean Dollar, but that means that whatever is paying for these comes directly from funds that should be used to feed the starving.
It wasn't the Garden of Eden when it was Rhodesia, but if given the chance, I'm stupid enough to wager that a fair vote would be tidal wave. Too late and spilt milk.
FYI it was the British Labor Governments and our own Carter Government who were rigidly for majority Black/native Rule that put this grand hunk of kleptocrat & murderer, Robert Mugabe, into power. In hindsight, which we are all subject to, this was almost certainly a bad thing.
