“Russian mercenaries have taken command of at least one EU-trained battalion in the Central African Republic (CAR) to help “predate” the mineral-rich country, according to a leaked report.”
LOL. The French-influenced countries if Africa are cesspits, where they pick the most corrupt gangbangers to put in charge and replace then in a coup everytime the government shows signs of competence.
The deal is that the French have gold and diamonds extracted by slave labor and the gangs rob everyone who still have something to keep everyone on squalor and continue the racket.
They hired Wagner in 2016 and they find abd hang gangbangers resulting in the dramatic increase in safety and the expansion of freedom and prosperity, where the slaves are freed and wash their own gold they are selling for high profit.
The GDP of CAR per capita increased by 50% over the years five years and covid didn’t put a dent on it.
Of course Maricon of France and Jose Borrel of the EU are raising stink but the Africans couldn’t care less.
Mali is next evicting the French, where they are pretending to fight islamists but bomb the government forces and civilian militia opposing the gangs.
It is a sort of odd situation when a bunch of 200 mercenaries who only have rifles and rope achieve more than the entire Foreign Legion on ormor and with air support.
