why do we 1000 troops in Niger? Being the world’s policeman is insane. We can not afford it.

Having troops in Niger smacks of racism.

Russia has troops all over Africa.
Is Russia insane because of that? Or are they smart?

If they find it rewarding to be there, why shouldn’t it be rewarding for the USA to be there as well? Hm?

To keep its uranium out of the hands of terrorists and bad state actors.

Ask instead why Russia wants to be there.
