France has been kicked out of Chad and has been scrambling to exit it's old colony by December 31st.

France was involved in 26 coups in Africa since the 1960s and helped assassinate 22 African leaders. Fourteen African nations were STILL paying taxes to France at the start of the decade. The number is now rapidly decreasing. After the Chad exit France will no longer have official bases in West Africa.

Congratulations to Chad for this huge step!

🇹🇩🖤✊🏿

♥️🇫🇷

Finally!

French troops will stop to protect the dictator of Chad!

Hoping that European countries will start to support only African democracies, and let these military dictatorships to their own!

@elCelio @nullagent the problem is what is russia's involvement in the area

@NeonPurpleStar @nullagent

whatever. if they want russian mercenaries to enslave and murder them, let them have what they want.

there's much more to gain by establishing friendly, strong and long-lasting relations with African democracies.

Let's ditch any imperialist mindset and start to treat African countries like any other country.

@elCelio @nullagent russia has a huge campaign in northern africa painting "the west" as evil to discourage them from doing trade with europe
el Celio 🇪🇺 🇺🇦

@NeonPurpleStar @nullagent

I know. But if they choose russia, I think the choice must be respected.
Africa is big and diverse.
"the West" is losing opportunities by treating it as a big blob, instead of focusing on reliable partners.

Dictators like "President" Deby, son of "President" Deby (which stayed in power for 30 years straight - talk about coups! 🙄 ) is really not reliable.

I don't want to have anything to do with shit like that, as anyone who values human rights and democracy should.

@elCelio @nullagent ok, but the answer to this question is not simple

think of syria, hollande wanted to intervene from 2014 in favour of the rebels and obama stopped him

the rebels have now won and can build a free and democratic society, but would it have been better if we had saved all those decimated by the assad regime during the last 10 years?

@NeonPurpleStar @nullagent

well, there's a difference: in Chad the French troops were there to help the dictator (!).

they were doing what russia was doing in Syria: help him fight the rebels, mainly the islamists in the North.

@NeonPurpleStar @elCelio @nullagent

Do you think they will build a free and democratic society? Will Israel let them?
