How Wagner Kicked OUT France From AFRICA
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 жов 2024
- On July 26, the Presidential Guard of Niger deposed newly elected President Bazoum. This follows a recurring pattern in the Sahel region. A Military takeover, followed by the French garrisons ordered to leave the country... only to be replaced by the Wagner PMC. Russian mercenaries are now present in the Central African Republic, Mali, and Burkina Faso. What makes the situation complicated in Niger is that the country hosts thousands of both French and American troops. If nothing is done, the next target might be Chad.

Dude, I have learned more about African Politics in the last 30 minutes than I have in my past 52 years. Keep up the good work!!!
Glad you enjoyed this crash course 🙏🙏
@@historylegends hy dude, i live in nigeria next to niger republic. and i fully agree with what you have said and by the way, have been following your channel since last year march.
Not really from Africa but from the Sahel region and n & western Africa, Southern Africa and central Africa are much more stable if you exclude the DRC or democratic Republic of Congo,
The problem with the Sahel region besides tribal disputes is the role of Islamist extremists that have grown in the region as the USA persecuted them elsewhere
@@historylegendsRussia has nothing to do with coup in Niger
@@NitoKuvellbecause Nato destabilised Libya
What you forget to mention is the assassination of Muhammad Gaddafi by the French and their allies. This caused a power vacuum in the region since Gaddafi help to control the Tuareg. Furthermore the influx in weapons brought by the French and given to the rebels in Lybia caused the destabilization of the whole region because these Tuaregs ended up with a part of those weapons. France is partially responsible for the situation and the whole time they spent over there wasn't spent to fix the issues but beneficiate from it
Completely exact!! Also some the weapons from Libya armorues ended up with Daesh in Syria with the helpful intermediation of the lads from Langley/ Virginia and from Beşiktaş/Istanbul...
Sounds like an excellent point. Gadaffi like his Iraqi counterpart kept Islamist extremists/and ethnic groups repressed, so helped maintain stability. The US and the West released this genie from the bottle. Gadaffi unlike Sadaam Hussein raised the living standards of his people and provided excellent education and health care, from what I read.
@@martinkelsen6049 Exactly and according to Hillary Clinton 's leaked emails, France was the one pressuring for the killing of Gaddafi. They did it because he wanted to create a panafrican currency that would be link with Gold and he wanted to create an African IMF. This France couldn't allowed because it would have been the end of their puppet currency the Franc CFA and the USA couldn't allow it because it was a direct attack on the dollar. They are responsible about what has been happening since the fall of Libya. What happened there is a damn shame
@@jamessmithers4456 Indeed
It’s more complicated. These Tuaregs did come back from Libya, but overall Gaddafi is not that relevant to this story, because the Tuaregs rebelled for a long time before. Also, he is himself a cause of destabilization in the region. In the 1970s, Libya supported rebels in Chad, and invaded it by 1978, where Chad demanded the military intervention of France. A war which lasted until 1987.
Next target is Chad. And after that is Gigachad.
And after sigma giga mail chad

La Russie ne fait que surfer sur un mouvement de fond de redistribution des alliances, elle n'a pas viré la France, c'est les erreurs des élites politiques française le problème. Un exemple : Pendant de la Chine construit des ponts et des routes, la France envoie un embassadeur lgtbq....

Honnêtement la France devrait d’abord reprendre le contrôle de son pays avant de s’occuper de l’Afrique. C’est désolant de voir ce qui se passe dans ce pays.
C'est ça, les Africains ne veulent plus de ce que propose la France. La Russie ne fait que profiter de cette tendence

Many of us don't know what France is doing in Africa. The economy of six African countries are controlled by France through the Central African CFA franc. Some of rulers of these countries have tried to free their people from this economic slavery but they were immediately overthrown. Qaddafi's government held 143 tons of gold, and a similar amount in silver. This gold was intended to establish a pan-African currency based on the Libyan golden Dinar. This plan was designed to provide Francophone Africa with an alternative to the CFA. Qaddafi's attempt to establish an independent African currency was not taken lightly by Western interests. In 2011, the French president Sarkozy reportedly called the Libyan leader a threat to the financial security of the world.
Russia on the other hand has never colonised Africa and perhaps can offer the continent a gateway out of the western imperialism.
Not for long once they get kicked out 😂
14 african countries are economically and monetarily held by France

What do you think Russia is doing in Africa? Charity? Russia, China, and the collective West have competing interests…

are you gullible to the point of thinking that because "Russia doesn't have a colonial past" (which it's always wished it had) they're going to be kind-hearted partners actually interested in developping Africa other than for their own interests ? Same goes for China
Your knowledge of, and insight into what is happening in this area, is impressive - thank you for sharing!

Wagner aint good guys but they are still better and more fair than frenchies will ever be. Same goes for America in Africa..Corruption , theft and illegal privatization of their goods and rampant violence towards people made them turn to Russia who pardoned their debt during most crucial times. While America cant even pay off student loans, or housing for veterans...

Great analysis. I’m originally from that area and visit twice a year but this video informed me tremendously. Excellently researched with an understanding of especially the tribal issues which are often overlooked.
I don't know why it's so difficult for the main stream media to report like this. The MSN always leaves me with more questions than answers. This video, on the other hand, is just packed with answers. Thank you History Legends!
This video still omits stuff or oversimply a few stuff. I personally think Unknown Armies video on West Africa was better researched.
propaganda does not tell you the truth comrade
history legends is a anti west,russia lover and supporter.that should say everything.he celebrates russia murderous invasion,and delights in the suffering of the ukranian people and army.he finds it all laughable.and he does it while at the same time living comfortably in the west,protected by the same laws and freedoms he so likes to spit on.
Pulling legitimate info out of Africa is like pulling teeth ?
This is the first time of me hearing about this stuff!! The main stream media just tells you what they want you to think about.. they dont want you thinking about these wars
For anyone who´s interested in just how despicable France acts in Africa, I would greatly recommend the documentary by danish journalist Mads Brügger called "The Ambassador". It paints a very good picture of what exactly France are doing in the continent. Spoiler: They´re not helping the local governments achieve stability ...
I bet they're doing exactly the opposite...
I'm sure Russia and China will be so much better...
Not matter the means, I'm glad we're getting out of those shitholes. No more dead French soldiers for these ungrateful fools.
Yep
Exactly. I am starting to think History legends was paid off with a large number of baguettes, because he deliberately left a lot of what they are doing out and only gave half truths out outright false hoods, only citing their "sources".
I will definitely check it out
Good job explaining the roots of the conflicts in central Africa 👍🏼
Thank you again for giving a historical report on the events in Africa
He completely skipped the uncomfortable issue of the economic relations between France and those countries, and without this information you cannot understand why those countries want to cut ties with France. For starters, I would recommend this short video: ua-cam.com/video/36vYRkVYeVw/v-deo.html
History Legends, boy o boy, you're simply one of the best analysts one can find in contemporary times. Majority are corrupted and absolutely miss informing or deliberately turning logics upside down. Keep it up.
lets see. this dude is very good in framing. i dont know if yhou have seen his latest ukraine videos.
We all know what France did to Africa and its natural ressources. and that it wasn't for the benifits of African people all this years. as an Algerian i am hoping that this wont be the same with Russia. and African youth can actually stay in their countries and have a good future.
We in Russia have our own resources, don’t need to steal from others

The politics of west africa for years now has been to use France as the official scapegoat and the evil colonialist for everything that goes wrong in theirs countries lmao
@@tonyg2002Aust Who even still believes in that??? How isolated you must be?
I am from Chad, and I can assure you that the vast majority of us fully support our Nigerien brothers and the nations that kicked out the French (Mali, Burkina Faso, Guinea, and Central African Republic). We are fed up with French neocolonialism and detest the French. We welcome anyone who will help us break the shackles of western subjugation. It's only a matter of time before the French are kicked out of Chad as well so that we can be truly independent (politically, socially, and economically). This generation is different, and France must come to terms with that. Congratulations on the well-researched video, History Legends. Keep up the great work!

Very good analysis. Africa is extremely complicated and due to tribal and ethnic conflicts not to mention socio-economic factors will always be difficult for non-Africans to control. The neo-colonialism will continue as the WEF trys to sibdue the world.

@@Ukversuskenya France actually paid for every kilogram of Uranium.
@reg-pi1sr Paid? Or mines and takes 85% and gives Niger 15% and taxes them the whole lot with pretext of doing this and that thereby driving Niger into more interests and debts. OK, if they paid, no problem, but now the owners of the resources are saying, "Get out, we don't want you in our land." Should they not just leave? We know the French have not played a fair game. If they had, Niger would be economically stable and advanced... reckoning they have the highest uranium! Those who forcefully take must be forcefully removed.

One of the reasons Nigeria is considering war.
So basically russia is supporting coups along the gas pipe route, they certainly are pushing the limits if thats the case.
that was a silly plan anyway. It will take many years to complete, and demand for natural gas is only going to fall in the coming years.
@@andrewrogers3067Algeria a crucial member in the project and main sponsor, is against war coz this could lead to endless war... Nigeria's leaders mindset is not functionning well by declaring war
The coup leaders were trained in one country. there is only one country known for Coups assassinations and destabilization in Africa and that is why all the coup leaders were trained in that country. The other countries threatening to support them against ECOWAS were also trained in the same country and came to power through coups. This is just the continuation of coups, assassinations and destabilization by this country in Africa. African countries should distance and detach themselves completely from this mischievous country whose only intent is to sow conflict like in Europe and the Pacific. Africa should not tolerate mischief.

And all weapons cartel have are coming from US so question is what do you as Mexican think about wisdom of Russia intervening to deal with problem ?

Theres a lot more but you get the general idea. I honestly have never seen a more arrogant nation than france. I dont think Russia is any saint but france and their long history of meddling, genocide and looting have been truly exhausting
ECOWAS is the physical representation of Western power politics in Africa, its literally there to make sure that Western countries have their way, the USA is to have the Middle east, France is to have Africa, and the UK was to have Asia, but Asia is not as weak as Africa and the middle east is, that is why the USA is the one there right now.
Read the treaty of Lagos, France had basically nothing to do with the economic union in West Africa, why in God's name would this be a representation of "Western power politics"?
ECOWAS is the best thing that has ever happened in west Africa. Their operation in Gambia was nothing short of amazing. Russian, The US or France couldn’t even dream of doing something as clean. And ECOWAS has a point. If they let these military coups be successful in their neighbours they could be next.

Thank you for treating these conflicts as having actual motivations behind them.

Errrr.... Africans kicked out the French out of Africa. Now they are trying to find allies wherever they can get them.
When he mentioned Uranium mines in Niger, I thought to myself, the US are never leaving that area. The US will set up a large military base, with the French, to protect the mines. This will look similar to the US forces in Syria. The US will base attack helicopters and artillery for support. I have a feeling the US will start to support the Touareg for their own country, as long as they support US interests in the area.
The US and France will eventually be expelled from Niger. It's just a matter of time. Same will happen in Syria.
They always do this, scum of the earth they are and they will have to answer for this one on judgement down, and what they have done to Libya.
Wagner group is very strong trust me with local support USA and Europe will lose as they losing Ukraine, Africans if fed with weapons and weapons they are tough and brutal force
Russia is welcome to Africa because at least they develop a country...not only looting
It's 4% of the world uranium production man... and the french from Orano have been trying all they could to get the f out and stop having to exploit the mines, but they are diplomatically bounded.
The movie "Lord of War" covered it nicely. The western nations serve at behest of the military industrial complex, so facilitating an environment where the conflict never ends is in the best business interest of the international shareholders of raytheon, lockheed, grummond, etc etc.... 'humanitarian' and 'democracy' are just slogans to pin to the narrative title in order to continue the destabilized situations. the 'Islamist' groups use lots of American weapons after all.
Russia goes in and is upfront with who they side with, what their payments will be, and what they will be expected to do..... the western nations are intentionally ambiguous, have tons of personally paid off moles on every side of every conflict in every corner of the world. the west will say one thing, do another thing up front on the surface, and five other things beneath the surface; and they fund this insanity with our seemingly unending American tax payer cash cow....
Assange said the entire purpose of taxes is to transfer public money into the hands of private corporate shareholder interest. that proves to be truer and truer as the years roll on.
The coups make complete sense, the western backed corrupt civilian governments are by products of the "Confessions of an Economic Hitman" foreign/business policy the west has implemented since after WW2 on the world. Having said that, it is difficult not to have some sympathy for the Tuaregs and other minority nomadic type of groups in the desert trying to preserve their ways of life and operate with some autonomy.. I mean they are a different collection of peoples than the national borders they inhabit so based on the ideal of a 'nation state' they absolutely qualify..... but the world is far from ideals and is about who gets what.... hence we find ourselves in these predicaments and many people will die in the struggles on the ground as ultra rich elites play games within games to obtain their perceived edges.
God save us from one another.
Then you have to consider what happens when the country no longer wants to follow western orders or Russian orders.

Finally I get a good explanation. Thank you thank you!
Thanks for these great summaries of local conflicts that you're doing lately. Really interesting and very clearly explained.
As a French I can tell you that the context around this coup and the regional conflicts as a whole are very much not explained in the same detail, nor in the same light, in our medias.
French government is cock sucker of the US empire and their vassal states (Canada, GB, Dk, S,N,SF,I, D, etc...).
It was very well explained that the french government is just incompetent with the issue at this point. As they have grown soft and weak in the eyes of the native africans. Indeed it is only natural that wagner moved in the replace french as the rightful narrator for the stability of the region. Since the russians unlike the french understand that these countries and especially these have principles, traditions and conflicts that can not be masked with fancy euphism of in the name of democracy.
Yes Wagner replaced the French not kicked them out, that was done by the Africans themselves.
Wagner wasn't there until the Fre nch were kicked out by the locals. He might have been paid of or his b ias against people with natural deep sun tans is showing. He also leaves out the real true history of what they have been doing.
Imperialist must get out of Africa now!
i would say its used as a easier way to invade the west during or after the war using a weak country to manipulate them into alliancing with them to replace the french in the country to then use africa as a stepping stone as a use of power force and more land to use against the west. if this keeps being allowed, the west will eventually fall. the west needs to be so stupid and let things like this slide so easy because they want to respect the intenational laws when russia is toying with the laws to prevoke a reaction and to gain easy power.

Your research and analysis 🔥.
The truth is on the INTERNET.
Thank you for bringing the precious analysis of Bernard Lugan, alongside your personal one, to the english audience. If you want to understand politics in african countries, you have to consider demographics and ethnic divisions and the cultural and military backgrounds of these groups.
People should lookup who Bernard Legan is and his views about Africans. It will give his comments more context. He also served as an expert witness for Hutu defendants involved in the Rwandan genocide at the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda.
For context it was the Hutu government of the late President Habyarima who carried out the genenocide, with assistance of F rench air support. The Tutsi survivors were led by Kagame who is now President of Rwanda.

I like how people are angry at Russia for meddling in Africa but when French have their colonies that's fine and carry on. Its just hilarious 😂😂😂
These countries are not colonies for 60+ years. They are economically dependent, which is a different thing
@@kadovax6567 😅😅 ofc they not. You clearly don't know shit and don't even pay attention to what is going on in the world. I can't be bothered to write whole paragraphs trying to teach you something but I will translate some parapgraphs for you.
"Most African countries formally gained independence more than half a century ago, and almost all European powers have moved away from overt colonialism. However, the notable exception is France. Neo-colonial exploitation continues today through the systemic dependence of West and Central African states on French public institutions, banks and private conglomerates, to whom the Elysée Palace ensured monopolistic dominance in many markets. Not only has France been blocking the reconstruction of the statehood of the countries of the Sahel and the Gulf of Guinea for years, but even on a moral level it does not feel like hitting its chest."
"
(2021) At the beginning of this year, the attitude of the French government made several headlines in African newspapers. French President Emmanuel Macron has ruled out apologizing to Algeria for colonialism, although he had previously called the tragic events of that period crimes against humanity and acts of barbarism. The Elysée Palace also came under fire after French special forces dropped bombs on a Muslim wedding in Mali earlier this year. Although the target was Islamic terrorists, accidental wedding guests, including women and children, were killed. At the same time, the countries of the North and West Africa region remember well the words of the French president that Africa has a civilization problem. Given the regional historical context, Macron could not have chosen more unfortunate words. They are easy to compare with the French civilization mission from the colonial period. After World War II, France, Belgium, Spain, Portugal and, above all, Great Britain were forced out of the continent thanks to local national liberation movements, the pressure of their own public opinion and the need to focus on rebuilding their own countries. Only France could not accept the following changes in the world order, it wanted to stay in the first league of global powers. It was supported by the United States, which tried to counterbalance Soviet influence in Africa. France created Françafrique - a system of more or less formal personal, institutional, political and economic dependencies, thanks to which it could continue to exploit the riches of Africa, and at the same time cooperate with the political elites of the newly created countries of the region"
And there is tons more..
Agreements with France also oblige the above-mentioned 14 countries to maintain as much as 50% of foreign exchange reserves in the French Central Bank (previously it was as much as 85%!). Every year, almost half a trillion euros are transferred to Paris from the taxes of African taxpayers. African republics can only use half of their budget, and if they want to invest more funds in development, they can only borrow their own money from France on market terms, i.e. with appropriate interest." "However, when Paris withdrew from the region in the 1950s and 1960s, it forced humiliating deals on them that give French companies a privileged position in all tenders, investments and mining contracts."
Ofc they not colonised by French, who says they are 🤣🤣🤣 read a damn book sometimes.

Best coverage yet, you know West Africa
You’re totally right; I was in RCA in 2014 as part of Opération Sangaris. I never understood, why we would not simply neutralize all the Séléka thugs, for it was obvious for us to see, that in each city or village we stayed, they’ve kicked out the Christian population of their homes and occupied them for themselfs. But instead we would allow them to operate their checkpoints and keeping their weaponry to some limits. They extorted money from traders, which led to the villages beeing drained from the most basic supplies. Many times we just found ourselfs in between Séléka and Anti Balaka shootouts. At the time, this made no sense to me.

You can not fight ameria allies until they says so.
it's difficult to dance with multiple partner in africa, we souldn't do that. and we did it, with full forces
For the same reason why the US doesn't just destroy Al Qaeda in Idlib, because they fund them to promote destabilization of Syria. The french do the same thing in the Sahel
Christians deserved that
Alex you're the only content creator I've found who explains the history of conflicts erupting around the globe. I knew the central African countries were fed up with the French exploitation of their resources but i didn't understand the ethnic and somewhat religious background of the conflicts. In my opinion though this still leads back to Ukraine. If the western governments can tie up Wagner in Africa then the Ukrainian forces don't have to face them in Ukraine and the West is getting desperate in Ukraine. The big offensive is a disaster and Russia is primed for a big offensive. The western leaders will have to explain to their citizens why after all the death destruction and money the Ukrinians still lost and it's going to cost many of them their jobs.
None of them will lose their jobs; they will fail upwards. Half of them will be on the board of Lockheed Martin in a few years' time.
He only gave half truths, most of these conflicts are based on the divide and conquer strategy used by Brits and all the others, they aren't organic. Also he leaves out all of the details of ex ploitation the Fr ench have been doing there.

I'm French and I have been following Lugan's analysis for many years, his explanations are much more convincing than the usual bull served by our governments. To be honest it's a pity Tuaregs don't have their own state as it would put an end to all this stuff, but they are in a way the Kurds of Africa, they probably have too many countries and interests against them to succeed, although I think a smart approach would be for these totally artificial countries created by colonial powers to adopt a federal organization and give more power and share of wealth to the Tuareg regions. I hope this situation won't lead to a full-blown regional war at least. Thank you for your great analysis as usual.

@@zharkoo not really, apart from the general embarrassment at mankind's behavior sometimes. First, nobody chooses which country they are from. Second, I haven't done anything seriously wrong personally. Third, many if not all countries have done shameful things at some point or another in their history, I can quote dozens on the top of my head. In this case, which massive crimes are you referring to specifically? I won't deny that there are plenty of things in our history that range from unfortunate or ambiguous to downright morally wrong. Fourth, I have also my own life to live and cannot wallow in guilt all the time about things my ancestors or other people's ancestors might or might not have done, I can just try to lead a good life and attempt to correct wrongs either by myself or by voting for people who hopefully will work on this. I guess it's the same for Americans in spite of what they did to Indians or African slaves, Germans in spite of concentration camps, Zulus in spite of conquering other African tribes, Arabs in spite of enslaving Black tribes, Turks and Kurds in spite of killing Armenians, Aztec descendants in spite of human sacrifices, Japanese in spite of atrocities against China, Indonesians in spite of killing hundred thousands of Chinese, Russians and Chinese in spite of million dead caused by Stalin and Mao, Italians in spite of Roman colonization, and so on. Have a good day!
NATO countries always say that they are not occupiers, but liberators and fighters for freedom and democracy, but at the same time, when they are forced out of other countries, they directly say that they have lost control in this country. Even in this video there is an interview where a person says that Russia kicked France out. Although how could Russia expel France if this country did not belong to France. It should be good for the French that now it's not the French who will fight there, but the Russians. But the French are upset for some reason.
You do not understand geopolitic in the slightest do you? If a Friend ask you to come to his house and then throw a tantrum and tell you to get out, you will say that you were kicked out. At no point you owned anything, but you still were kicked.

Well he left out the huge fact that the US has over 1000 troops in Niger and the U.S. owns the Trade and logistical routes in all the counties that he brought up….Wagner are kids with toy guns….they don’t have the power to move any major logistics in the countries….sorry Russia has zero bases in Africa…all this is on the Wagner end is a way for them to make money because Putin wanted to intergrade them into the Russia military where their pay would significantly decrease.

@@brettvogel8418 Name one area they have been humiliated? One time? Because correct me if I am wrong the US military currently controls 95% of the worlds trade and logistics routes located in over 125 different countries with almost 987 bases outside of the United States. The base in Germany (Ramstein) is larger than any base in Russia or China…that’s just a US air base in Germany. The next largest is in South Korea…then a base in China…but if we count US bases in the United States Ramstien is like 30th.
The US can move logistics and protect logistics into any country in the world within 48 hours…Russia can barely move logistics to the areas of Ukraine they now own in that time. Russia has been embarrassed in every military conflict over the last 50 years…right now are getting served up in Syria, Ukraine, and soon Africa…because they can’t move logistics to sustain.
The US pulled out of Afghanistan because the logistical route were worthless…instead we are going the way of the Black Sea where it is actually profitable….we took that away from Russia. And the Gulf of the Otoman and Gulf of Persian…because again those are profitable. Afghanistan was set so US could take out Iran if needed, but Iran has dumpster fired their own economy…no need for the US to step in…they are destroying themselves.
Remember…most of the world is the sea. Most profitable trade routes have to go by sea or air over the sea. Russia is just a joke…set to crumble because they fell into a trap. Then next is China, because they lost their cheap labor force and didn’t built any projected military might outside of their own boarders (they can’t collect loans they gave out without US support)…India is going to take over as the leading exporter stabbing both Russia and China in the back as they crumble. Come on man, you need to be realistic with your self.
