Russia refused to extend the deal in July, complaining that an agreement promising to remove obstacles to Russian exports of food and fertiliser hadn’t been honored.

    And neither of them was “Western aligned” before nor after, that’s bullshit.

    ECOWAS is very friendly to Western interests, especially France and the US and AFRICOM is literally a seat of US imperial power, and the coups happened in member countries. Come on.

    You can’t simply believe everything a head of the state says and take it at face value

    You first lol

      Your entire argument is “we should do what Russia wants”. They’re waging a war of aggression and facilitating African coups, but somehow the west is at fault and needs to compromise with them. And if they form a diplomatic agreement that Russia violates, that’s also the west’s fault and they need to compromise more. And if Russia enters an agreement and then decides it doesn’t like it, it’s allowed to just tell bald-faced lies about how the terms apply and again, we should compromise with them and give them what they want.

      Fuck all the way off.
