Another comprehensive rundown. The Niger situation is interesting. I didn’t know about the Iran uranium piece. That is in itself interesting. I can’t help but think Iran is very close to completing its nuclear puzzle and is just waiting to build its forces until it can build its bomb and they’re too powerful to really mess with.
The Russia in Africa piece is interesting as well. Apparently the names may be different but the goals remain the same.
France seems to be desperately thrashing for its relevance. I guess with the demise of Germany it sees ascension to the top of the EU as a possibility.
A great summation. As always it takes a bit to digest. There’s always the great pictures though.
