  1. One would think this is the part where The US, France, and the rest of the West would simply just leave these countries to themselves. But no, they don't know what that is, they won't stop, they will play this new alliance to its very end, and if necessary, to the destruction of all of Africa. Playing everything to the destruction of everyone else disadvantage is the thing Western nations does best. This is just the beginning.

  2. These criminals have colonized Mali, Birkina Faso and Niger. You should expect them to rule for 50 years and totally destroy these poor countries to mere dust. Younger Africans are allowing themselves to be morons thereby fooled by these criminal coup plotters who will end up destroying these poor countries. ECOWAS must seek support of FRANCE and USA to chase out these criminal coup plotters as quickly as possible.

  3. Africa must wake up on this! This woman together with her gimmicks is confused and talks nonsense! This world is really changing. I can't agree the notion that says this is done by American community! This woman is sick to the core! Thinking we Africans are beggers and that we live by handouts! Let them try to sanction Africa that will be their downfall. I'm worried about the ECOWAS and the current Nigerian administration!! Also Moroccans are a very typical nation! Hope soon they'll come back to their senses!

  4. I am a Ghanian but I am very happy about the unity of Burkina faso Mail And Niger they are some coutrys in Africa which their leaders are doing which is more than what the leaders of Burkina faso Mail And Niger do and we blive that those countries are also having military who can also fight against coroption

  5. They can stay as long as they provide security and improve the standards of living of their citizens. The civilians' so-called democratically elected governments are corrupt,repressive, divisive , and authoritarian more than the military regimes. People are tired of being used and abused in the name of Democracy where election results never reflect the will of the people. What's the point?

  6. The French are in 14 countries on the Countient of Africa. Africa has take care of it self. French needs to go leave African forever. This is the ultimate question who gave Macron 14 African countries and the people?

  7. All the African terrorist are created and founded by the West and America under the very watchful eyes of useless socalled united Nations for taking care of their looted resources. 😂 More like a United Nonsense.

  8. Africa need a strong military to put an end to all the intimadation u have the man power and the resources to do that forget about the preaching of democracy and demilitarisation. Equip ur military then ur economy. A strong economy without a strong military will colops because u can be invaded at any time

  9. Love from India. India is union of 28 states and so stable. African need to have a similar union of state which are diverse with 1 single country. then only ur region will be stable. colonizers earlier had divided u in different countries so that indirectly they can rule u. Also they will try to divide u all with tribes or religion with proxy terrorists groups which no religion supports. Beaware of their divide and rule policy. Love and All the best for alliance and more and more countries should join.

  10. The West sells or gifts weapons to terrorists in Africa. African countries must ban western weapons of war making it into Africa, we should start to buy weapons from Iran, India, China and Russia. Any nation so long as they aren’t from the west who sells obsolete and limited weapons to both sides in a conflicts to drag it on and maximise profits. Africans should take care of their own security without the involvement of the soldiers of the Caucasian race.

  11. Notice how poor Ms. Palki will always be pessimistic about regions of Africa, China & some South African nations WHILE she will sleekly praise her India at all cost despite the fact that her
    India hardly have any substantial impacts on the global maps and world regions.. .. !!

    Well Ms. Palki the last time i checked … it was your same West who sponsored in the terrorist into these regions in the first place. All done in order to establish bases and foot holds in these
    regions mineral resources. So it is only common sensical;y a matter of time for these trapped regions to wake up, kick out the source of the terrorist { the West} and re-take hold of their lives, livelihoods and ultimately their economies !! The West even tried these old playbook crap on Ghana and Nigeria {economic hitmans} … but those nations were smart enough to fight back without the west even rendering them weapons to fight the terrorists that were brewed up by the same West.. .. Shame … ..shame .. . ..shame… … !!

  12. India has kicked agaist the notion of a common brics currency😢 why is it because you want to advance the use of the rupee… a currency Russia has rejected currently as a smeans of transaction for their oil

  13. Vão morrer a fome África cuidado com a agitação da russia, eles não irão conseguir dar de comer a África. A Rússia também precisa de melhores condições para o seu povo. Cereais não é suficiente para ajudar toda África, muito cuidado em seguir bala com o ditador comunista psicopata corrupto Vladimir Putin, os melhores parceiros da África são os EUA e o Ocidente. Abaixo o bloco comunista, todos eles vivem à custa dos países capitalistas.

  14. Larga vida a Zelensky, nuestro héroe, nuestro Premio Nobel de la Paz, el mundo del bien está contigo, gran luchador gladiador contra la dictadura corrupta del sistema mafioso de la oligarquía comunista pro Putin, fuera la democracia comunista. Viva el mundo seguro con la OTAN y con los EUA

  15. Well educated people outside of the Sahel and west Africa will know that these 3 countries previously had a very powerful empire called the Mali and later the Songhai empire from the 1200s to 1600s.

    This is the reunification of the old powerful Songhai empire which was a ancient major world power. And previously not only the richest and biggest empire in African history but also the richest empire in the history of the world.

    Their famous ancient emperor Mansa Musa remains the wealthiest man in human history till date.

  16. The Terrorist attacks increased, that’s because the army is going after them. In order to vanquish these terrorists no mercy should be shown to the captured prisoners, anyone who kills innocent peoples for fun shouldn’t be allowed to live as well.

  17. Dear Palki, please stop making it appear as if ECOWAS is the enemy here, because they are not. The initial stance of the economic bloc is to discourage military rule, which we in West Africa knows to well to be a draconian option to governance, however, after careful evaluation of the geopilitical implications of an attack on a supposed "erring" state, the ECOWAS took a delaying stance, so as not to play into the hands of trigger happy French & American interests, who are just waiting for the right excuse to escalate the situation and reverse back to the status quo.
    West African government, who are not under French influence are not unmindful of the evil post colonial policies of France in her former colonies and the excuses given by these coup plotters, resonates clearly with them, as it is clear that despite the heavy presence of the Western Armies in these countries, terrorism is far from abating & they are getting richer and fatter. THAT IS WHY ECOWAS SLOWED DOWN, NOT BECAUSE THEY FEAR THE ALLIANCE BETWEEN THE 3 WA COUNTRIES. We in West Africa are all brothers and related by ethnicity, tribe and race, so we will not kill each other, to please any muzungu or neo-coloniser. If they have any beef to settle, they should go face Russia, who is their enemy.
    The initial statement made by the current Chairman of ECOWAS, was made before the fact and now that he has the vantage of seeing all the scenarios, common sense has kicked in. The Nigerian soldier is not weak…the fact that Bokoharam & ISWAP are still active to an extent is because they are capitalizing on the weak governments of countries neighbouring her, but now, with this alliance and new coopeartion, Bokoharam & ISWAp or any other terror groups will not have that free movement again, without being challenged and defeated.

  18. You sit in your small studio saying these leaders are fighting a losing battle. It’s crazy to say that. You are there enjoying your freedom and opportunities and when it comes to Africans fighting to achieve that you speak rubbish about it.

  19. Racist, Ethnicist, Colonialist. Condescending

    This is the true face of Macron and the French junta. How they pit Africans against each other ( ethnic fibers in Niger, FranceDEAO). He says Africans shouldn't have the privilege of staging coups. "Pcq il faut produire local maintenant même quad il s'agit des putschistes".

    On September 24, 2023, he repeats his orchestrated communication delusion

    "Basically, (speaking of Niger) there are largely ethnic settling of scores and a lot of political cowardice."

    Emmanuel Macron.

    France has always used ethnicity and religion to pit Africans against each other with manipulated vassals.

    Côte d'Ivoire🇨🇮 "Northern Muslims # Southern Christians".

    AFRICANS UNDERSTAND, THAT'S WHY ALL MILITARY BASES 🇫🇷 TERRORISTS MUST BE DISMANTLED. 1:03 1:03 1:03 1:03
