...If all these companies pulled out, China would immediately collapse. Yes, these would be a heavy thing for these companies but their economies can absorb the impact. China however will be toast...

I just discussed this with a tuber of cassava and the cassava said something intelligent.

The cassava said if the foreign companies pulled their manufacturing from China, China will simply continue manufacturing those exact goods but under a different name.

So China will simply sell the products to the customers of the foreign companies. Same products, same quality, different branding.

Meanwhile, the foreign companies will have to look for factories elsewhere, of which there's none. So they won't even have any product to sell.

What do you think about what the tuber of cassava said?

I support this.

Tinubu is actually the leader of Ecowas.

He's afraid of what will happen to him if the coup in Niger is left to stay.

Selfish humans.

When it comes to Nigeria politics I really don't side with any one

All I just want for Nigeria is for us to have peace.

Military coup shouldn't be condone no matter d circumstances.

It must when civilian govts are about selling off the country to their slave masters.

It's like saying hitting a woman out of self-defense should not be condoled no matter what even if she's about to stab you to death.

Does this make sense?

@MedvedevRussiaE
By repelling the collective enemy’s counteroffensive, our Armed Forces are defending Russian citizens and our land. It is quite clear to all decent people.

Besides that, they are preventing global conflict.
Just imagine that the NATO-supported ukrobanderovtsy’s offensive turned out successful, and they took away a part of our land: then we would have to, following the President’s degree of 02.06.2020, use the nuclear weapon.

There would simply be no other way out.

That’s why our enemies must worship our warriors. They are keeping global nuclear fire from flaring up.

Congratulations on Russia’s Navy Day!

P.S. The unmanned underwater vehicle Poseidon sends its greetings and recommends the enemies of our country to pray for all the Russian marines’ health.

I noticed when mentioning the great sons of Africa, you omitted some names. I am assuming you omitted them unknowingly. Or maybe it's part of your Stockholm syndrome.

* Thomas Sankara who was killed by a French-sponsored coup. A true African Hero.

*Patrice Lumumba who the then US president authorized his assassination with Belgian assistance. They even saved two of his teeth as souvenirs.

* Sylvanus Olympio who didn't agree to mortgage Togo's future to France and was handed over to his assassins by the US ambassador.

* Felix Moumie of Cameroon who was poisoned by French agents in Switzerland. And despite the Swiss government knowing his assassins, they were pressured by the "self-appointed policemen of the world" to forgo justice.

* Pierre Mulele who decided to continue where Lumumba stopped. They cut off his ears, nose, arms and legs before throwing him into a river in a sack.

I still have more names. If like Putin you "suddenly decide to remember some of Africa's great sons", I'll be happy to give you other names worth emulating than that black trigger-happy genocidal terrorist who was once president of the USA and who used his reigned to drop more bombs on children than anyone in history.

Btw, here is President Putin at the first Russia-Africa summit in 2019.

https://amp.dw.com/en/vladimir-putin-opens-first-ever-russia-africa-summit/a-50943192
Of course, i omitted some names not because, i did not want to put them but because they were not very very recognized like the ones i put up there. Now, i will address the issue of your African heroes one by one.
1. Thomas Sankara came to power (not president) as a result of a coup organized by Blaise Campaore. I hope you know that the coup that brought Sankara to power was supported by Libya (Dog eat Dog. i.e. Africa betray Africa). France is not yet in the issue now oo. Sankara was appointed Prime Minister in 1983 and was having issues with the sitting government which led to his house arrest. While in house arrest, another coup was organized on his behalf that toppled the same government that brought Sankara to prime minister (Again, Dog eat Dog). It was from this coup that Sankara became President in 1983. (Again, France is not yet in the issue oo). The same group of people that organized the previous coup that made Sankara prime minister have fought within themselves and broken up. He was deposed by a coup led by Blaise Campaore (the same person that organized the initial coup that brought him to power), However, this time with the help of the French government. Now, tell me, look at the series of events, and tell me who really betrayed who? Did the French government come directly to assassinate Sankara? or his fellow black men stabbed him in the back. Remember, it was the same person that organized the coup that made Sankara prime Minister that also organized the coup that led to his assassination. That is that about that. You can challenge it with any other fact that you have. Now, let's say the French did not want Sankara in power, the question we should ask is why should his betrayal come from the same person with whom they were initially friends

2. As For Lumumba, please go and read the hidden parts of African history again. There is no denying the fact that the Belgians committed a lot of atrocities in their colonies, but Lumumba was given up and betrayed again by his fellow Africans. I can argue this one with you to the highest of heavens.

I will be addressing the remaining African leaders in another quote cos i don't want this one to be too long.

Russia stood behind Africa in the liberation struggle against colonialism and Western Imperialism. Russia funded, armed and trained the ANC in their struggle against apartheid South African regime while America and its western counterparts gave their full support to the apartheid regime. When Patrice Lumumba was killed Soviet Russia denounced the West and honored him by introducing a postage stamp with Lumumba's picture on it. Go and look into Russia and Africa's relations from the cold War era.

You people always talking about colonialism as if Russia's hands is clean. In case you don't know, I will let you know that Russia actually tried to colonize Africa. The Russia you are supporting failed woefully in its objective because it could not match the power of the west.
I know you will doubt me, but take your time and read this:

I am very glad that you mentioned the quoted above. Now tell me; how are you different from the African saboteurs who stabbed Africa in the back? Aren't you doing the same thing now.

In this thread; you and your cohorts have

* Called Africans and African leaders stupid.
* Called Africans monkeys
* Downplayed EU, UK and US atrocities in Africa.
* Made excuses for the atrocities by the above in Africa.
* One foolish idiot (permit my language) above even said Africa should forget the atrocities committed cos they were years ago. Has he tried telling those he asslicks to forget about 9/11 which by the way occured many years before the atrocities in Somalia and Libya.
* Because you live abroad, called the rest of those in Africa poor and uncivilized.

So you can see you and your cohorts fit the description of saboteurs. You and your kinds are fawners, uncle toms, buttlickers, buttkissers, bootlickers and asslickers. The "West" only need to dangle something to your kind and you'll be just like the Africans you have mentioned who stabbed Africa in the back.


I'm sure if we were still in the slave era, you'll be here preaching how being continuously slaves to the British and Americans is the best thing.

I know you ain't the brightest here, but I'll like you to tell me how much of USA current gold reserve did they PRINT ?
let's start from there before I reply you further

No problem. I will tell you. In the year 2020, the United States printed a little over 3 trillion dollars. This amount represents about 20% of its total gold reserves. Now, let's do some calculations. The US currently has about 8 tons of gold reserves, followed by Germany with about 3.3 tons, followed by Italy with about 2.5 tons, followed by France also with about 2.5 tons. Russia comes a distant fifth with about 2.3 tons.
Now, if we remove the 20% that was printed in 2020, (probably due to covid destroying economies) remember, that it was in 2020 ooo, not presently, the US is still leading. I believe you know that we are not supposed to remove that 20% because it was done in 2020 while the reserve i posted is at 2022. But, let us give you putards some respite, you will see that the US is still leading. Now, among the 2nd, 3rd and 4th countries with the highest reserves, which of them is likely to join the Russian Agenda of a multipolar world? We are talking about 8.3 + 3.3 + 2.5 + 2.5 which equals about 16 tons compared to Russia 2.3 tons. My Friend, you are going nowhere with this agenda.
Let us even say that the 2nd, 3rd and 4th countries agree with Russia, their 2.3 + 2.5 + 2.5 3.3 equals 10.6 tons. With these, the US is still a formidable contender. Look here, shed sentiment and be real. They are going nowhere.

Honestly, i don't really know if i should engage you. Your comment is like that of someone who doesn't want to face the truth of a problem yet wants to solve a problem. The fact that i said the unpleasant truth about Africa does not make me a saboteur. Meanwhile, i never called Africans monkeys, i only said that to some foolish people as a retaliatory insult, not as a description of Africa.
Secondly, downplaying EU, UK, US atrocities in Africa is only a wake up call that Africa should have moved past blaming colonial masters for our present predicament. You can't move forward if you continue dwelling on the past.

The cassava told me to ask you how China is able to manufacture the goods if it doesn't know the so-called secrets? Can you make what you don't know how to make?

As for the chips, everyone knows foreign companies don't make their chips in China. So the cassava was wondering why you suddenly started talking about chips. Have you run out of points?

Yes Russia murdered its people in the past. Joseph Stalin was a monster I hate him for all his deeds against the Russian people but Russia didn't commit massacre in Africa unlike the West did starting from the days of slavery down to the 21st century.


One thing which most people don't realize is that the USSR's paranoia was totally justified, the USA had planned to nuke the USSR but didn't have enough logistics so the USA needed a few years to gather the logistics, during those years, the USSR discovered its own atomic bomb, that is the only thing which aborted USA's plan to nuke the USSR.

USA has been obsessed with destroying the USSR and now the Russian Federation since the ending of WW2. At the ending of WW2 Patton even stated that the USA fought the wrong enemy, that it would have made more sense to fight the USSR instead.


In WW2 german (Nazi) soldiers ran from the red army and straight into the hands of American troops who didn't have to fire a single shot, the Nazis felt at home and safe with the Yankees who acted more like the saviours of the Nazis than their enemy in WW2. (This is a description of a period of time around and before the end of WW2, this doesn't describe the entire period of the war)

I disagree with this though. If a government becomes corrupt and anti people, who should come to the aid of the citizens. In a stable country where the system works, coup cannot happen. Coup only happen in 3rd world country where corruption is rampant.

The issue with coup is that it does not really solve the problem the people face because coup plotters always make the same mistakes made by the government they replace.
Not only that, his definition of moving from the past is: reward the guy who did you harm and punish the guy who tried to stop him from doing you harm.
