Eleven West African nations have agreed to commit troops to a military deployment aimed at restoring Niger’s democratically elected president following last month’s coup, an official for the regional bloc said Friday after a defense ministers meeting.
Let me get this right.
They’re having trouble with Islamic extremists. The president fires the head of the military.
He then complains he has to launch a coup because of the military situation he has failed to resolve so hard he got fired.
He then decides, in his infinite wisdom, to suck up to a Nazi state-run PMC, as an African, because he thinks, what, liberal nations won’t ally with military juntas if it makes them money?
I mean Niger (and other West-African nations) have been exploited to hell and back by France (who’s probably involved in the current military deployment). No wonder a new government would seek to ally with someone else instead, and I don’t think China is in the coup business.
I have absolutely no doubt he plans to yell genuinely fair criticism of the French capitalist devils as he ruthlessly exploits his people in his fascist dictatorship.
