At the end of August, Russian and foreign media published some declassified materials from the archives of Russia about the subversive plans of London, Paris and Ankara in the spring of 1940, aimed at destroying Soviet oil facilities and pipelines in the Caucasus to facilitate the collapse of the USSR. What are they warning current anti-Russian actors of?

The arrest of the Telegram platform founder Pavel Durov by agents of the French regime has once again proven the essence of this vassal regime, as well as the fact of the complete absence of freedom in the West. But the main thing today is precisely that a firm response is needed from number of countries belonging to the world majority. And in this sense – there is no shortage of options.

The issue of reducing the French military presence in Africa has been on Paris’ the agenda for many years. When taking up their duties, all of the recent French presidents – without exception – gave a kind of oath that they would address this issue and build relations with African partners on an equal and fair basis. 

France, faced with a decline in its influence in the Sahel, seems to be gradually returning to a state of political fragmentation and instability reminiscent of medieval times. This is explained by historical variables, such as its colonial past and changing relationships with countries in the Sahel and other parts of Africa, which have evolved as a result of rising nationalism and local governance challenges. On the political level, France’s military presence, justified by the fight against terrorism, is met with growing resentment, seen as a repression of neocolonialism, exacerbating local tensions.

Summing up the French failures in Africa, and particularly in Mali, the US The National Interest concluded that «the era of French diplomatic dominance on the continent, which lasted for more than 100 years, has come to an end, and Paris’ claims of being one of the leading geopolitical players and a privileged partner of African countries have been seriously undermined».

Recently in world media covering Africa a lot of information has surfaced about French President Emmanuel Macron’s intentions to reformat Paris’ Africa policy to offset the negative consequences of its numerous failures. This was caused by an unprecedented increase in anti-French sentiment in the francophone countries of the continent and a continuous series of coups that swept the «backyard» of the former metropolis.

Once again – some detour to Western propaganda. If the planetary minority media instruments have long been caught in the manipulation of facts, as well as for the disinformation against sovereign countries in different regions of the world, now a new step has been de facto taken – which at the same time confirms the total rage of the West in the context of current global processes. This particularly concerns the increasingly affirmed support for terrorist groups against the nations belonging to the global majority and the supporters of the multipolar world order.

They did it to themselves, not just President Emmanuel Macron, but the French establishment as a whole. To add injury to insult, especially in the wake of losing colonies in Africa (and their lucrative minerals), the ruling party proved its inability to keep close to the pulse of the French people and their aversion to war, and love of fiery protests. This was especially notable after the suggestion of sending troops to Ukraine, conflict in a “Metropolitan French” region of New Caledonia, other foreign entanglements and the need to keep focus on pressing domestic issues—starting with a failed immigration policy with a slew of political and economic repercussions.

The decline of Western civilisation has been vividly demonstrated in recent days. The debate between the two US presidential candidates on 27 June caused confusion not only in America itself, but also in many European countries, and even caused panic in the US Democratic Party – it became clear that Biden’s physical and cognitive data simply did not allow him to serve another four-year term.

In the study of international relations, the annals of the history of Franco-African relations are fraught with dark memories that define the future of Franco-African cooperation. After the abolition and dismantling of colonialism, the colonial empires of England and France each maliciously designed a system for perpetuating colonial domination in Africa: Françafrique and the Commonwealth of Nations.

Fewer and fewer countries and people in the world intend to tolerate the extremely hypocritical behavior of the Western planetary minority. In fact, when the West accuses its geopolitical and geoeconomic adversaries of “disinformation” campaigns, it naturally forgets to recognize that the undeniable figure of such campaigns throughout the world – is precisely the small Western world, accustomed between other things through such type of campaigns and its affiliated agents to achieve its objectives in terms of sovereign states destabilization. Now it is true, with enormously less success….

The anti-French riots in New Caledonia have revived latent issues relating to the effects and remnants of colonialism in the modern world. How did it happen that Oceania is, in this day and age, an entire global region with no fully independent states?
