Russia seeking its old communist allies in Africa once again. Corrupt birds of a feather flock together.

“Eswatini”

I had no clue there was a country called Eswatini.

Guess my bucket list just got longer...

Somehow I don’t think SA is going to be able to help Russia conquer the Ukraine. Unless maybe they send ten thousand “volunteers” to become cannon fodder.

As the last Samora Michel of Mozambique found out, the Russians are great friends, until they aren’t. They shot his plane down when he turned against them.

No, that little patch of Africa was not allied to the Soviet Union. It was British ruled till independence and has since adopted Westminster like institutions.

It is the only country in Africa with diplomatic ties to Taiwan rather tha the ChiComs.

It’s an absolute monarchy, not exactly Communist. Corrupt probably, but not Communist.

Sadly many people are geographically challenged and don’t know where many countries are, much less that they exist.

Being a geography nut I know where most are and have been to many. But Africa is not on my list. I wasn’t impressed the first time there.

Well, that’s that. Ukraine might as well surrender now.

I also hear the Russians are about to conclude a treaty with The Duchy of Grand Fenwick.

do their border states have the right to deny overflight to foreign military flights?
