The importance of this is that Africa at large is declining to bow and scrape at the feet of the United States, which is a good thing for the political and economic independence of many of the countries (e.g., Zambia, my second home). Africans are asserting their self-respect in refusing to be an abused audience for U.S. moral browbeating---not to mention showing their severe disapproval of the demented and depraved LGBTQ agenda. Some leaders are still stuck in the "suck up to Big Donors and give them the kitchen sink" modus operandi, but this is starting to taste sour, since it only leads to indefinitely prolonged indebtedness and the rape of national resources by outsiders and corrupt insiders.
Nigeria is my parent's home. They'll love this news
That's awesome, fren. I'm sure they have been waiting a long time to hear it.
yes, yes, yes! What's been going on in African countries is terrific! in terms of them breaking free!
There's an important woman economist from Zambia, Dambisa Moyo, whose advice for Third World countries is to free themselves from debt commitments and develop on the basis of internal means and resources ("Dead Aid: Why Aid Is Not Working and How There Is a Better Way for Africa"). Her thesis was so unpopular among the ruling elite in Zambia, she had to live in other countries.
oh really. That is interesting. I feel like we are all being freed, one chain at a time.
Many African countries have run up oppressive debt with China. That’s my only concern. Something something give me control of a nations money supply it doesn’t matter who makes their laws. However if this can end natos reach and hopefully be a precursor to other parasitic agencies like the un I’m all in
The Junkie must want to quit. This goes hand in hand with corruption, as national leaders strike sweetheart deals for kickbacks, and have no concern that they are pledging the nation to ruinous debt, or settling the debt by giving national resources to foreign interests cheaply. NATO vs. China is only the color of money.
