BREAKING NEWS! AFRICA TIRED OF THE WEST! Captain Moussa Traore, the young president of Burkina Faso, gave a speech at the Russia-Africa Summit in Russia. In his speech, Traore criticized African leaders for being puppets to the Western world. He accused them of being too willing to follow the dictates of Western governments and international financial institutions, and he argued that this was preventing Africa from achieving true independence. Traore also criticized the West for its neo-colonial policies in Africa. He argued that the West was exploiting Africa's resources and keeping the continent poor. He called on African leaders to unite and to resist Western domination. Traore's speech was met with mixed reactions. Some African leaders agreed with him, while others accused him of being a communist. The West also criticized Traore's speech, and some Western governments even threatened to cut off aid to Mali.

The west are instigators to the political instability in the African countries and the alot of Americans don't even know that and yet they wanna weigh in their two cents on a subject matter they not well informed on.

[@idristetteh7969]

We support our brothers who are standing up for their nations and people first and foremost by ousting the puppets the west have put in power

[@shauntshiamo]

never again will they invite him for an interview😀😂

[@weecee7770]

The African brother said the truth as is. Will the western world do the right thing? It remains to be seen

[@BethBirhe-vo5nl]

Right thing means no more cheap urinium to steal…mmm don’t think so. They will try to steal as long as they could!

[@fightback397]

The Western world has always done this the past 400 years . Why do you expect them to start acting different ?

[@lefotlegodwin8827]

😂😂😂😂 wow USA use even Media to check the pipettes because when you start speak the truth they cut that topic fast. because it's does not suit them

[@irenesimalike3962]

Every media house has got its own agenda that its advancing. Follow each one of them for a week, you will know.

[@khalildonyute1]

You see how he just ignored the France comment about how much they pay for the uranium 😂

[@ozoubir]

Call a spade a spade. France needs Africa's natural resources to maintain its economy. Without it, it will fall into dispair. Apart from the few Louis Vuitton bags, some cheeses and a couple of bottles of wine they export, France has no tangible economy.

[@davidcald5975]

GOD BLESS AFRICA ❤

[@birdiemiller4219]

Africa Standing Strong!

[@2slice805]

You all are seeing Russia flag because the people are telling you that they need the Russians help

[@brettbibelheimer]

Chuck Todd said it at the end “we don’t cover this topic enough.” Whether he was referring to the resources extracted from African countries without proportional compensation or the plight of African nations; it doesn’t matter, both are true

[@r-uu2qi]

That’s not true at all. Keep lying

[@thefirstog]

Stop talking about Russia. Russia was one of the only countries to stand with Africa during independence! We are obviously going to side with Russia!!!

[@thannaingsoe5673]

Why they democratically elected the president if they don't want him??

[@erichall465]

These Western countries know exactly what they're up too

[@keontyzelle99]

Take everything back that has been robbed from you Africa. We in the diaspora are watching closely. Great Job!

[@youngkingtv5155]

My question is why all European are soo key in this

[@ochinhtoiay3880]

Thế kỉ 21. Cần chấm dứt ngay lập tức mọi ung nhọt của Chế độ thực dân kiểu mới. Độc lập, toàn vẹn cho châu phi.

[@idristetteh7969]

Thanks bro

[@terekab5883]

Thank you brother you said it well in there face 🎉

[@jascam1]

It's good to see African leaders taking a stance against the imperialist/exploitive West however it will come at a steep price. One can only look at the suffering of Haiti and Cuba as examples of western (France and USA) revenge against those who rise up against their masters.

[@BethBirhe-vo5nl]

Your only option is to be their puppets and continue to be poor and exploited or fight back and possibly free your country and people from continued exploitation!

[@johnwingate8799]

And recently,the US is supporting a coup in PERU.

[@1Alkebulan]

No problem the price all shall pay. Not only black people in Africa. Africa has fed the world with riches for years and suffered too much. It’s time for that narrative to change.

[@andrewleblanc1670]

Africa won't exist anymore if they keep going

[@angelamann4899]

We holders of everything the world needs to survive, let's see who really needs who. Lol We had no shortage of food during covid, just incase. Leave us alone and see how we fly

[@savedbyhisgracert8061]

Go Africa. 💪. And unite

[@SportNewsNMajozi]

US and France should leave us alone

[@januarySl2024]

The causes of the explosion of matters between the major exporters of strategic raw materials and the importing capitalist, mainly, Western countries is the exploitation and naked permanent political interference by the latter in the internal affairs of the exporting countries which has kept these countries, though potentially rich, in dire poverty endemic cycle of violence and political instability.

[@omuntu3363]

An unsustainable system that's come to a head! Africans are fed up and no longer intimidated!!

[@desalegneanteneh9555]

This is rich in minerals the French was there stealing minerals 😅

[@Richard-od7yd]

The French aren't worth worrying about . Like Putin , they're kinda busy with homemade problems.

[@gosnooky]

Yup. Those French nuclear plants won't power themselves....

[@buravan1512]

And you want RUSSIA to leave UKRAINE 😂?

[@charlesrichon6512]

The worrying picture is that every act of coup is loudly hailed by the people in that country. So we have to find out why such a thing happens. Coups are not a good thing to occur and support but can NBC News find out why the people are rejoicing that there was a coup. There are women and children among those rejoicing and it is something that has to be found out and reported to the world. A deeper outlook will make us get things more clearly.

[@smileylady485]

good point!

[@blkqueen6201]

Lol they know exactly why, they will never tell you. Real quick they are buying their resources for 10cents since forever selling it at 90,%. They have been asking forever to negotiate these crap contracts which of course they refuse to. Black country it's not European therefore they don't help build schools, roads etc. It's colonialism in a different form. Still milking the country for the resources and propping up puppets to keep the people quiet.

[@murdoch6390]

Gold and uranium

[@JACKAL747]

It's hilarious how this coup is totally okay, but the supposed "Maidan Coup" is not and evil 😂, whatever Russia and China don't like is good for the West and the world.

[@johnnyharka6609]

it’s not really their job to give you a honest insight

[@kingdavid7662]

Haven't you left a enough of a trail of pain and suffering it's definitely time for the United States to leave

[@olatunbosunbode-alaaka3688]

Precisely. Their own advantage in Afrika is our own disadvantage. Vice versa.

[@principledlegacy]

Maybe NBC forgot to belief that journalist on what to say as they usually do. It seems to me like he didn't deliver what they actually wanted to hear🤣🤣
