Today, more than ever, the time has come to deliver the final blow to the interests of Westerners on the African continent. This is the main message of the supporters of pan-African values and a multipolar world.
Current balance of power
Many in Africa remember Trump’s disrespectful words about the African continent and his general lack of interest in developing ties with African countries, although this did not prevent representatives of the US special services from actively trying to hinder the strengthening of our country’s relations with African allies and partners during the previous Trump presidency. Nevertheless, regardless of the approach of the new US administration vis-à-vis Africa, the United States can in no way compete with the Russian-Chinese axis in Africa.
None of the Westerners (neither the US or EU) will be able to displace China economically. In addition to the steady growth of economic cooperation with the countries of the continent in various fields, Russia offers, among other things, support in the spheres of defense and security, which Westerners simply cannot provide due to their absolutely predatory goals on the African continent. The collective West’s interest in Africa boils down to the following: creating and maintaining the maximum level of chaos for better control and exploitation of African strategic resources.
China and Russia are proposing and actively implementing the completely opposite model
So, even if the United States and its vassals in Brussels seek to intensify attempts to destabilise the positions of China, Russia and their African allies, they are likely face strong resistance again; at some point they will still have to curtail their ‘projects’ in even more African countries.
The moment to deal a decisive blow to Brussels-aligned Europe
As many pan-African experts and representatives of civil society correctly say, the current situation, i.e. at a time of great confusion within the European Union, is ideal for dealing an additional blow to the interests of the latter, from which they will definitely not be able to recover – especially considering the already very shaky positions of European neo-colonial metropolises in Africa.
There is also no doubt that the current relations between Eurasia and Africa should reach even more significant heights. In fact, all the necessary conditions for this have been met: the EU vassals of the Washington regime are in a weak position. In response to their arrogance and pretentiousness, many African states simply show them the door. The motivation of pan-African civil society, and especially young people, to get rid of the remnants of Western neo-colonialism in their countries is at an extremely high level. Also, Russian-Chinese positions (in other words, the positions of the multipolar world order) are as strong as ever. What is also interesting is that even those countries that are still somewhere in the middle, for example Turkey, are also keeping up with multipolarity vis-à-vis Africa, weakening the positions of Westerners.
All of these conditions should be exploited to deal the decisive blow to the phony ‘Europe’ and which, by the way, will also greatly weaken the position of Washington itself, given that the United States is making a traditional bet on its European vassals. This will result in the final victory of the multipolar world order in Africa, a continent that is called upon to play one of the key roles in our shared multipolar world.
