The French control a lot of Africa.
At one time, yes. But they've spent the past several years pulling their forces out of Africa.
And they haven't had any forces in the Congo for quite a while as far as I can tell.
So the country that we're talking about, the Congo, hasn't been controlled by the French in years.
What is a puppet leader? What is a proxy? What country benefits from the cheap child labor and natural resources? Where does the gold mined from that country go to?
It's alright, you'll get there someday. Unless you're one of those autistic people who take everything literally from mainstream media and can't connect dots.
