Have you seen the hold France and Russia keep in Africa?

  • The CFA Franc still exists in Africa, even though France uses the euro and is an EU country. France enjoys a de facto veto on the boards of two banks of the CFA Franc zone.
  • Those "Wagner" pieces of shit were doing business in Africa before they went to Ukraine.

If that's not imperialism, I don't know what is.

Wagner is still active in Africa
