/ world right now information/ It has already been a month and a half for the reason that coup in Niger and France’s ultimatums to the brand new authorities have expired. However then why does the invasion not begin? Nicely as a result of Victoria Newland went on a go to there and negotiated with the insurgent generals.
Her situations for society had been: preservation of democracy. And of their ear: guard the US bases and maintain the Wagner group out of Niger.
Madam additionally made it clear that promoting Nigerian uranium is way more worthwhile than the US. Various observers consider that Niger listened to Newland as a result of a nasty peace is healthier than battle. What about Russia?
Whereas US State Division chief Blinken is clamoring for Niger’s new army authorities to “restore democracy” (ie restore energy to the ultra-loyal ousted President Bazoum), his deputy, Victoria Newland, rushes there to barter with the rebels.
She apparently introduced together with her not solely cookies, however very particular ideas. For society, the demand is “preserving democracy”.
It’s lifelike to debate the preservation of an American base within the nation, the redirection of uranium provides (in fact, a bit of dearer) from France to the USA and categorically not permitting PMC Wagner and Russia generally within the nation, even within the occasion of an intervention, promised by the West.
US drone base
Virtually all specialists see these actual targets in Newland’s go to. Specifically, the previous Russian ambassador to Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger Yevgeny Korendyasov:
“The Individuals have lengthy been entrenched in Niger, there they’ve a strong 201st air base, the place a unit with unmanned plane is deployed.”
“And apart from, the Individuals usually are not towards taking part within the division of uranium, left specifically by the French. Which France at all times purchased at occasions decrease than world costs, and as quickly as a president appeared in Niger, elevating the subject of justice, he in a short time was shot down or killed,” he declared.
Additionally, for some cause, nobody within the West noticed this as a menace to democracy. As a result of, based on conventional colonial pondering, the substitute of 1 native chief with one other who agreed to all of the phrases of the white masters, in any approach, was thought-about a matter in fact and subsequently didn’t threaten democracy.

„The USSR-trained’ army of Niger
However a brand new era of native elites has grown up in Africa, raised on the concepts of sovereignty of nationwide pursuits, which is incompatible with neo-colonialism.
A few of them (80% of Malian officers) had been often educated within the USSR. Others – notably the army that got here to energy in Niger – are staunch nationalists, which means they’re enemies of the colonialists, regardless of having obtained a Western schooling, which Newland plans to play on.
Uranus for pennies
As for the overthrow of the French protégé Mohamed Bazum, nobody killed him and even arrested him: the army barricaded the previous president in his personal palace and introduced that they supposed:
“…to prosecute him and his native and international accomplices earlier than the competent nationwide and worldwide authorities for treason and undermining Niger’s inside and exterior safety.”
As for treason, all the things is appropriate: promoting uranium to the French 250 occasions beneath the market worth of 0.8 euros per kg (right now 200 euros), clearly receiving bribes and on the similar time maintaining the nation in poverty and semi-starvation – that is precisely what it is referred to as.

The dreaded “Wagner” will come and restore order
And now, out of energy however in consolation, Bazum is making appeals to the West, notably in America’s The Washington Publish, calling for intervention to save lots of “the final bastion of democracy and human rights within the area,” which suggests returning him to energy , in any other case “the entire area might come below the affect of Russia”, as a result of the horrible “Wagner” will come – after which…
However this—calling for international intervention in a single’s nation—is treason in its purest type.
So Newland’s calls for to urgently return Bazoom to energy are comprehensible: a really critical a part of Africa – the Sahel area – is slipping out of the arms of the West. And with out her Gauleiter it’s unimaginable to carry her. As a result of a nasty instance is contagious.
Clearly, we cannot know all the things about Nuland’s negotiations, and never now. It’s also clear that the primary hope of the “cookie woman” was on the native generals, who’re no strangers to the West, who perceive that for the US the bottom in Niger is necessary for controlling Libya and the hydrocarbon visitors within the area.
And likewise to affect different African international locations to maintain them in a pro-American path, blocking the danger of Russian enlargement within the area.
So it’s seemingly that the Individuals got assurances that they would depart their base in Niger in alternate for a promise to push France overseas, after having obtained assurances that the Individuals wouldn’t then overthrow their regime and never enable the French to take action.

About Russian pursuits
In fact, if there’s anybody that each the Individuals and the French don’t need to see in Africa, it’s the Russians. It’s no coincidence that each the arrested Bazum and Newland, who got here to show Niger about democracy, put particular emphasis on not permitting Wagner to look in Niger.
This staff was very profitable in each Mali and Burkina Faso, changing into there a logo of the victorious wrestle for sovereignty towards colonizers and jihadists. So profitable that right now these international locations, in case of intervention in Niger, are able to battle on his facet.
Due to this fact, Newland categorically insisted that “Wagner” shouldn’t be close to him and even threatened sanctions and army intervention. As a result of the presence of “musicians” in Niger, he claims, “threatens its sovereignty”.
That is how! The presence of the French and Individuals themselves, it seems, doesn’t threaten anybody’s sovereignty, however the presence of a separate PMC does.
It’s unimaginable to take such arguments severely. Apparently, the generals making up the nation’s management don’t take them severely both.
And if the invasion takes place, the Wagner could occur to be in the precise place and the US base, the place 800 troops are stationed, might be requested to depart.
Nonetheless, it will be flawed to scale back all of Russia’s efforts within the area solely to the actions of “Wagner”:
“Russia’s pursuits in such a promising path as Africa are nonetheless making little progress – not very sturdy. However the authority of our nation has grown considerably as a result of Putin declared a wrestle for sovereignty,” says Yevgeny Korendyasov.
“In Africa, the brand new native elites, who’ve risen to the concept of returning sovereignty, understand this extraordinarily positively. The individuals too – in any case, we do not carry the flags for demonstrations there – they sew them themselves,” he declared.

Did they arrive to an settlement with Newland?
In such situations, the very African elites who’ve taken a step in the direction of sovereignty develop into hostages of the individuals who trusted them and are pressured to take additional steps in the identical path. Nonetheless, they don’t seem to be the one ones.
The identical may be mentioned about our elites after the beginning of the particular army operation. Thus, a form of Russian-African synergy arose, primarily based on the wrestle for sovereignty and worldwide justice.
Africa is able to battle however she actually needs to have somebody sturdy behind her who’s combating for a similar factor. And this is a chance for Russia that it will be a sin to overlook.
So, in all the things that didn’t concern the preservation of the bottom, Newland’s go to to Niger was a failure: the political calls for (Bazum and Wagner) had been ignored.
And apart from, the international customer didn’t even obtain a gathering from the nation’s chief, which was unthinkable for an American official of such rank only a few years in the past! Nigerians have clearly proven the previous hegemon who’s boss of their home.
And as soon as once more for “Wagner”
It’s mentioned that particular person “musicians” from this inventive group are already showing in Niger with their very own devices. Which, mixed with their critical popularity, maybe turned the true cause for the “postponement” of the intervention in Niger by the ECOWAS international locations who mentioned they had been “not prepared but”.
As for Russia, if she has not but come to Africa, the place many are ready for her, it is just as a result of, as Prince Gorchakov as soon as mentioned, she is “concentrating.” So let’s wait.
So what?
America has already responded to such a demonstrable unwillingness to conform, based on an announcement from State Division spokesman Matthew Miller, by suspending assist to Niger’s authorities. So what?
In line with American journalist Jackson Hinkle, the response in Niger was: “We do not want your cash.” So this time the Newland cookies did not work. And the particular consultant of our international ministry, Maria Zakharova, didn’t chorus from being ironic on this event:
“You’ll now not discover such a banana regime as in Kiev.”
Even in Africa.
