Putin steps up drive for clout in Africa with broadside against West
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-russia-africa-putin/putin-steps-up-push-for-influence-in-africa-with-broadside-against-west-idUSKBN1X00V5
The Kremlin has said it expects 47 African leaders to converge on the Black Sea city of Sochi for the Oct. 23-24 event, Moscow’s first Russia-Africa summit and part of an ambitious push for influence and business in Africa.
For Moscow, the prize is greater political influence on a continent with 54 United Nations member states, sprawling mineral wealth, and potentially lucrative markets for Russian-manufactured weapons.
The world’s largest wheat exporter, Russia is also looking to ramp up its supplies of grain and fertilizer to meet demand that is rising in step with Africa’s booming population.
U.S. officials have vowed to counter what they see as Moscow’s growing political and economic clout in Africa as well as that of China, which has long had a large economic presence there and began its own series of Africa summits in 2006.
In December, then U.S. national security adviser John Bolton accused Moscow of “corrupt” and “predatory” business practices and of selling arms and energy in exchange for votes at the United Nations. Moscow denies that.
On Monday, Putin gave the clearest idea yet of his pitch to African countries, warning of rising competition over Africa. Turning the tables on the West, he accused it of intimidating African countries to exploit the continent’s resources.
“We see how an array of Western countries are resorting to pressure, intimidation and blackmail of sovereign African governments,” Putin told the TASS news agency.
He did not name specific countries, but said he was referring to former colonial powers on the continent.
ARMS FAIR
“They are using such methods to try to return lost influence and dominance in their former colonies in a new guise and rushing to pump out maximum profits and to exploit the continent,” he said.
By contrast, Putin said Russia was ready to offer help without “political or other conditions” and to embrace the principle of African solutions for African problems.
During its Cold War struggle with the capitalist West, Soviet Moscow developed close ties with many African countries, backing for instance post-colonial independence movements. Many of those ties lapsed after the 1991 Soviet breakup.
But Moscow’s ties to Africa are now on the up, Putin said, pointing to military technical cooperation accords that Russia has with more than 30 African states which it supplies arms to.
Russia’s new role in the region was thrust into the spotlight in July last year when three Russian journalists were killed in the Central African Republic while investigating the alleged presence there of a shady Russian private military contractor known as the Wagner group.
Putin will co-host the summit with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi.
Russia plans to put on an arms fair at the summit, showing Russian-made weapons including its S-400 missile defense system, other air defense systems as well as non-military equipment, according to the Almaz-Antey arms manufacturer.
In trade terms, though, Moscow lags far behind competitors. Russia says its trade with African countries rose to $20 billion last year, but Russia did not rank among the continent’s top five largest trade in goods partners, according to Eurostat.
That list was topped by the European Union, followed by China, India, the United States and the United Arab Emirates.

This whole case will be known as one of the greatest examples of the globalist dictratorship and their war against the truth.

Yes. Syria has proven the US to be the cowards that they are.
A Russian airman kills himself with a grenade to avoid capture by ISIS, meanwhile US troops exit with tails between legs at the first sniff of possible engagement with a real army.
It's clear that the American snowflake brigades are not fit to fight a symmetrical war.

coming this Friday... Oct 25
In case people forgot: hundreds were gunned down in the streets of #Iraq
— Thomas van Linge (@ThomasVLinge) October 21, 2019, yet people refused to back down.
Major protests are expected for this Friday (October 25) https://t.co/cb4fkbDnP1
Just a reminder that 180 Iraqis were killed by security forces in a week, many by snipers whom the government claims it has no idea on their identities and whereabouts. #Iraqi_protests
— Rasha Al Aqeedi (@RashaAlAqeedi) October 10, 2019
Iraqi Committee investigating violence at recent protests finds that Iraqi government issued no orders to fire on protesters. Security Forces fired on protesters without government orders. (Per Iraqi Human Rights Commission). https://t.co/FJD7K5kcFF

Iraqi protest coordinations: we reject Muqtada Sadr’s involvement in the 25 October protests. These protests are free of political parties & the government. https://t.co/U13Gvwc8ko

The oil is essentially useless for the US. Its sole value is as a bargaining chip with Damascus. Whether the US is belatedly acting to strengthen the SDF's hand in negotiations or to spoil their one remaining gambit depends on your assessment of Jeffrey's good faith & capability https://t.co/yaHEXt09kw

You are the best person to know this article is sensational & feeds the anti-Trump narrative. I am far from supporting Trump, however, #ISIS is so far from winning.

A few 1000s ISIS on the run can only attack soft targets but has lost people's support.https://t.co/81TWW5tSpI

Just do everyone a favor and destroy Ahrar Al-Sharqiyah. EVERYONE knows they're just a bunch of ex-Nusra elements masquerading as a FSA unit. We saw the same thing with Army of Glory in northern Hama. https://t.co/jQry4NMkrD

The main reason for my wish to change this society is that so many human skills have no chance to come to fruition.

But it can not be changed "top-down", only in some kind of "grassroots revolution" or better "evolution" where more and more people work together to get rid of TPTB (whoever that is).
No need for a "big event" but development. One of my ideas to reach it: Don't play "their" games - don't use "their" rules - don't think in the box of "their" paradigms.
It's more "refuse" than "resist" - without too much ideology. You don't need to know much about "what's going on behind the curtains", it's mainly to create your own rules together with like-minded people.
That is what I mean with "I'm on the side of the people".

Today in court, Julian Assange struggled to say his own name and date of birth as he appeared in the dock. He claimed to have not understood what happened in the case management hearing, and was holding back tears as he said: "I can't think properly".

I feel the same, since years I wish I had a tank for a "sightseeing tour" in Berlin ...
