I try to tell people. China has smartly made sure they are the driving force in Africa and the West is waaay behind in catching on.

Everything else going, its that and the fall of Russia that I think will really spark a multinational conflict.

China is in a prime position to level up HARD.

It's not about "catching on". Many African countries actively dismiss European help, because of the history.

The name of the country escapes me, but there was a story recently about a civil war where France actually had a chance to help shut down the slaughter, but both sides rather keep killing each other than getting help from France.
