African leaders don't have their countries first, feel vulnerable and have no self confidence except Yoweri Kaguta Museveni of Uganda. African leaders must know that the foreign army are for the interests of their own countries. Professor PLO Lumumba has constantly alerted the African leaders on several occasions in their countries. Many have not understood anything and aren't able to read what is happening in world politics and security. Let Africa unite and build strong military of their own to provide continental security.

Pourtant c'est Museveni qui roule pour les intérêts des Occidentaux (anglo-saxons) dans la région des Grands-Lacs africains.

[@mthimkhulu30]

It is because of the sanctions imposed on Zim by the US. Africans will go to war because of they're lack of education. Imagine after almost 30yrs you're still clueless of what destroyed the Zim's economy. With people like you we're fcd

[@bravewarrior1218]

#jugadug ZANU-PF has been the ruling party in Zimbabwe since the country's independence in 1980. The party was led for many years by Robert Mugabe, first as prime minister and then as president from 1987 after the merger with the Zimbabwe African People's Union (ZAPU). Mugabe remained in power until 2017, when he was removed as leader. At the 2008 parliamentary election, ZANU-PF lost its majority in parliament for the first time since independence, but then regained a two-thirds majority in the 2013 and 2018 elections. Zimbabwe has faced significant economic challenges under ZANU-PF's rule, including hyperinflation, high unemployment, and shortages of food, fuel and other basic goods. The country's economy has struggled for decades, with the government accused of mismanagement and corruption.

But Zimbabwe is richer than Zambia despite Sanctions so the West hasn't really supported Zambia

Zambia already did that, the previous gov was pro China, but the current gov was initially pro USA which might have pissed off the Russians and Chinese. Zimbabwe was blacklisted and sanctioned by the West decades ago, and they dont have any choice.

Zimbabwe and Zambia are sister countries . whatever the case or situation might we can on our own resolve it. Southern Africa has been so peaceful with exceptions to Mozambique that has had some insurgents . Africa there a saying " fools learn from their own mistakes while wise people learn from the mistakes of other" , lets learn from the mistakes other countries have made by allowing western nation (Nato) and the Americans to put military installation in there countries. History tells us that everywhere America and Europe has gone they distabilize regions and nations. They divide and rule and all is dont at the expense of the host countries while the America and their partners benefits. Zimbabwe and Zambia are both sovereign states yes and that must be respected however its not wise to be ignorant to the fear and concerns of your neighbors coz you are going to remain neighbors even if after america has gone ,after they distalibize and got what they wanted. Citizens of Zimbia and Zimbabwe dont allow your leaders to make you hate or fight one another because of their policy remember they are not going to remain in the presidents office for ever ,at some point they'll have to go but what would have then become of you. let Africa have their security architecture that benefits every African based on the African needs lets not allow outside forces to come in between us... We are thousands miles away from America and we do not threaten their security, Zambia and Him are neighbors and will remain so.
