Türkiye Says Macron Should Not Blame Other Countries For Anti-French Sentiment in Africa
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 сен 2022
- Resentment towards France in large parts of Africa is growing to levels not seen in decades. That anger mostly stems from the military footprint France maintains in several of its former colonies and the close relationship the French government has held with many unpopular leaders in the region. But France's President Emmanuel Macron is blaming this rising anti-French sentiment on other countries, including Türkiye. During a recent trip to France's former colony Algeria, Macron said that a campaign by Russia, China and Turkiye, was spreading anti-French feelings on the continent. He also accused the three countries of having a neo-colonial and imperialist agenda. Türkiye's Foreign Ministry blasted Macron's remarks, saying the French leader needs to confront his own country's colonial past and to stop accusing others. France, which maintains military bases in several of its former African colonies, has seen growing resentment against its policies in the region. In Chad, anti-French protests broke out in May, following similar outbursts in Mali, Niger and Burkina Faso over the past year.

If you want to know how evil the French colonialism was check out what they have done to Haiti 🇭🇹
All countries were complicit in what happened to Haiti. They united to make sure no other slave revolt happened anywhere. They created the poverty in Haiti by blocking all trade. That is how you go from the richest country to the poorest. Shameful!
I just recently discovered that piece of history. They are really evil
@@us.nyc.10011😢
The French destroyed Haiti because they dared to stand up to them
Research France and Haiti history and you will see
Retaliation time...
Africans will neither forgive nor forget the atrocities committed against them by these colonizers. It is just a matter of time.
Come on then stop talking dhyt
Do you guys ever ask why Africa hasn't truly asked for compesation from their european colonizers? Because despite the huge damage to non-western world, the West is still strong today. So they can get away with their crime. 21st century is the one of China/India. 22nd will be Africa's. Africa should do something against those colonizers when the time comes.
You should see what they did to the Irish and the welsh, and we still don't have our freedom.
@@jillybe1873 Ireland is fight for their country and now they are free, Scotland and Wales should do the same
No more humanitarian aid or generous cooperation programs for countries that are inundated with hateful anti western propaganda. Let them be enslaved by China or spiral into their own regional dysfunction & ethnic violence, likely aided by Russian meddling... Modern individualized countries should focus cooperation more among themselves and only coddle sane developing nations that aren't obnoxious.
This is good 👍
All of Africa is against French.
With a very good reason
Kan ,our new generations will fight back,and they know it, genesis 15 vs 13 to 14
No all of africa is on France …
Yes, against all Europeans Colonizers, and Slave Trades 👿 Slavery the worse crime against Humanity 😈
Very obvious
West white colonial mind set on denial mode
Macaroni has lost the plot,deep down he knows Africa is sick of French hegemony.
Africa is having Macaroni for supper now...lols😅😂
Africans are tired of the West. Full Stop!
He wets his pants for losing the cash cow Africa. Macron must pay reparations.

You did not mention the most important problem, The French CFA currency imposed by France on over 10 African countries suckling those countries' wealth from its people.😒
Those countries are against the current neocolonisation not past , that should be the topic
Question is why did we allow our sovereignity to be compromised? France didnt force their policies on us. we have to do something about our corrupt leadership
@@rediettadesse2828that is current colonialism! The same old colonialism!. France controls their currency! By controlling currency, they control the economy! France controls where, how those countries economically function. Every CFA country has to pay France for colonization! Same reason why Haiti has remained impoverished & poor since they fought for their freedom from slavery!
Its time the leaders of those countries resort to different arrangements, and abandon this theft of france.
Evil knows no bounds as usual.
Very true
Respect to Africa 🌍
💯💯💯
I respect people that respect me not because a land ask me to but cause they have earn it's from me history not today I'm no one the world ever meet before I'm like Bruce Lee but white and crazy and I call it's crazy fu not kung fu 😂
France, the UK, the USA ...have been sent a message, 'Get the hell out of Africa" You've committed enough evil in Africa.
Uk is the worst
Not only in Africa they commited in Europe example is bombing Serbia and taking part of souvereign territory giving to Albanians so called Kosovo.And in Asia South America it is pure evil but at the end now.Mankind is waking
@svenhallstrom5842,
Please don’t exclude their *DarkTetrad* little brother, Canada.
Africans, please *politely but firmly and swiftly remove Canadians* from your countries as well.
Alike their b*stard, superior-deluded, elitist, all-abusive comrades, the French, they *still refuse to address and re-educate away from their severe anti-Africoid (‘black’) pro-eugenics racism.* Leaving your respectful, encouraging, supportive *family members,* (usually covertly) *devoured* in their countries, *stolen, occupied* colonies.
Canada was recently deemed by the United Nations organisation (U.N.) a *GENOCIDAL STATE* (slow *ethnocide* of Indigenous Turtle Islanders AND Africoids).
The Française speaking province of Quebec, only 15 months ago (May 2022), was deemed anti-Africoid *racist.* They were *finally forced* to admit such *truth* about Canada’s immigration system - as has been told, complained about and *proved* over many years.
UK doesn't have any colonies in Africa. Do your research. Your nation isn't guilt free either Sven
and be swiftly replaced by russia haha
France is so arrogant it's blinded them to the realities of their injustices in Africa.
You think someone who brutally controlled part of africa for years has any human sympathy? It’s high time we stop beign weaklings,
They are not blinded, they are playing stupid and I’m giving them the benefit of the doubt!
It's obviously been working for them up until now. You think African's haven't known about it or brought it to Frances attention till now. France has killed thousands of African's
Arrogant is a cover up the Cruelty
It cannot go unpunished
Africa should never forget that France bombed Libya while a "No Fly Zone" discussion was being discussed at the UN. Sarkozy beat the British to it. A reward for the help given him in setting his potential rival for presidency ip while the latter was in the US. Africa should get rid of all European involvements and re-take lands that the former colonialists took.
Africa needs to take more accountability for itself and fix its own problems instead of blaming everything on others and rarely showing any appreciation for outside assistance. The world was more brutal in the past, we should keep trying to move towards a better future, but that more generous modernity isn't guaranteed.
@@assertivekarma1909 okay what about right now French nuclear company Areva paid for abductions, armed militia and bribed officials. Niger is one of the poorest nations on earth yet they currently supply 1/3 of France's electricity.
It also NO control of its money and France forces them to store HALF of their national wealth in Paris. France has the ability to stop Niger entering a trade deal with a foreign country. They are also forced to use a currency that is printed and controlled from Paris. Their national budget is tightly controlled by France. It is a nation in ABJECT poverty that is UNIMAGINABLE.
Niger is also home to the biggest drone base in the world.
So where does the blame lie? They are under military control, financial control and french mining and energy companies have been PROVEN IN FRENCH COURTS to fund terrorist groups and even organise assassinations.... No one went to prison and those companies still operate in Niger.
@@assertivekarma1909
😂😂 what outside assistance? You are living in a box.
@@assertivekarma1909 The only way forward for any nation in the world is for politicians to secure the interests of their own people's over and above getting fat with wealth. The political landscape has become a career, every nation should have terms in place of no more than 4 years and all politicians must be rotated every 4 years meaning that no one person gets to stay in politics for longer than 4 years. Here in NZ politicians get financial benefits for life, such as discounted fuel, discounted travel etc while, police, firemen, and soldiers who serve overseas get a pat on the back and comment of 'Well done". Politicians all over the world are corrupt in one way or another and they are the cause of hardships. Yes I agree Africa needs to fix it's own problems, but to do that first you must remove the corrupt politicians and put in ones who will work to benefit the people and not themselves, then you need to form a united Africa that is all African nations moving beyond past tensions and uniting under the banner of peace and prosperity, then you have to value life, life in a lot of countries means nothing, when you have nothing life means nothing hence so much atrocities being committed around the world. This is what the western powers do not want for Africa politically. If Africa became a 'United States of Africa', it would be a powerful player in the world becoming an economic and possibly military superpower, this is why the west like France, U.S and the E.U will always interfere with politics in Africa because they do not want that. So it is not a matter of Africans blaming others because they are correct to do so, it is the west fault. And what outside assistance do you refer to? Infrastructure? Most of the videos I see most roads are still dirt? Why? Is there free health care available? Can they have a govt paid operation if needed? Or do they have to beg, borrow or steal money to pay for it? I wouldn't call it outside assistance but outside interference.
Africa should not forget that Gaddafi wanted a united Africa and was working toward it so they could move away from the U.S dollar, but the west did not want that and so instigated his down fall and proceeded to bomb Libya under the guise of protecting its citizens. This was not only France but NATO itself. The name NATO should be changed to NAMO ( North Atlantic Military Organization ), because it has become an organization bent on dominating the world under the pretext of protecting democracy. I agree Africa needs to take control of its interest and force companies to pay the true value of the resources it steals, oil, gas, and minerals. Once they do that and eliminate corrupt politicians then African peoples can truly prosper.
WE! AFRICANS! WE DID NOT FORGOT WHAT THEY DID IN LIBYA! We did not forget Muammar Muhammad Abu Minyar al-Gaddafi.
France made french speaking Africa the poorest and most underdeveloped part of Africa.
Weren't they the poorest initialy??
@@RealitikDaily Yes, France was initially poor. That's why she came to Africa. To steal ,murder, rape and rob diamonds, gold, oil and land...
@@RealitikDaily No, you should look at Mali's history and they had the richest man on earth centuries before the colonial masters showed up. I would say definitely France and colonialists cause confusions in Africa which contributed to conflicts, and lack of development.
@@RealitikDaily no if their poor it's because of France yearly tribute that keeps France rich

I don´t recall that France ever asked for forgiveness for the atrocities carried out by its military forces in Africa. France must pay reparations and return all looted artifacts from Africa which are currently stored in French museums.
Shameful
Turkey also needs to acknowledge the Armenian Genocide and Japan it’s mass raping empire. Everyone needs to apologize.
There is a museum in Paris where they exposed Algerians' head soldiers. Those heads were capture by the French soldiers during the Algerie's war for independence. It has been years since the Algerians government asked the French government to return those heads to give these soldiers a proper burial. This is to show they are very cruel and shameless.
@@tashalorm4313isn't there stamps with these poor Algerian soldiers heads too? Were these soldiers heads returned with a proper Islamic burial?

Dont forget their antics in Batavia and the east.
he refuses to take responsibility, he continues to wash his hands clean off of it like it is still non-existent-- I believe that this demon is running scared that the day of reckoning is at his doorstep--at some point, they will cave in because this is where this is leading to and France and Mcrone will be left in a state of hopelessness)
I have always told black people who would listen, that its the same God that we believe in, who has unleashed these demons in our lives--but most do not want to take a look at this part, but the Arabs and Caucasians are responsible for our enslavement and still occupying our lands and resources
--Before them, there was the Annunaki over 200,000 years ago when we were brought here. we were also genetically modified and enslaved by the Annunaki to dig up their gold--to make a long story short, when we arrived on this planet Earth from the star system, Sirius, we used to live over a 1000 years, The genetic modification of the Annunaki reduced us to 120 for the most. we have not recovered from all the abuse, from all these demons that have been unleashed on us
sorry for making it that long, but I just had to put this out there because most blacks are either unaware or are not paying attention to the real story itself

Wow! Finally we get the chance to listen to real commentators who speak facts with no fear or favour.
My country used to be a part of previous French Indochina and even after a century, people still remember the brutality of French toward its colonization's population.
And one of the most remarkable and most celebrated victories in the history of our country is the victory over French in the battle of Điện Biên Phủ which I'm proud that my great grandfather personally took part in although he didn't survive the to see the victory flag flutter above the trenches of French 's commander.
They cant grapple with the fact that WE new generation of AFRIKANS dont buy into the favorism bulshit.....
And AFRIKANS we have our own standard to judge who is our friends and whos our enemy.
OUR ENEMY numero uno is the wicked French.
And we going for mental FREEDOM of our people and that chasing europeans from mamaland a journey started by our ancestors.
Nothing will stop us one brick at a time.

How many people are over a century old, it sounds like you are listening to questionable accounts & narratives, often with nefarious ideological purposes and geared for dramatic effect.
@@assertivekarma1909 Studying Vietnamese literature in the French Indochina period, visiting local and state museums, or by talking with my great grandmother when she still alive are enough for me to understand how bad it was to live under French rule. We may forgive but never forget.
Macron went to Algeria to beg for oil and gaz.
Treats Algerian very badly in France. Police kill them as animals. Its not fair
Exactly well said 👏 👍
Let them freeze until they give all that money back.
Algeria already has a deal with Portugal for gaz. It has been in place since the 1990s. My father was there during the opening of the pipeline, in the Sahel desert. While France was busy stealing from its former colonies that it still treats like colonies, Portugal was doing bilateral deals with nations, as one should in the 21st century and post colonial era. So now if the French want Algerian gaz they can ask the Portuguese government if it minds extending the pipeline for a just fee! Of course that the French will have to pay up differently than if they paid it directly to Algeria, which is why they don’t want to come to us. But looking at the animosity the whole of Africa seems to have for them now, Macaroni might just have to come knocking. Or he can also freeze! 😃 It’s up to him. Maybe next time France will learn to make friends instead of slaves.
They are proud of colonising africa and we africans are proud to see africa rise up against any colonial power.
Add Asians into that...we are proud of you too. Lot of love and support from the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan. May u also be free and prosperous. Know that they will sanction u, steal all your foreign assets and keep on interfering in your country though...theyvare doing this to us now that our Taliban kicked them out.

I meant they did apologize, but in Africa and other former colonies, I assume that is only the first step. Now it's France's turn.
Macron's hypocrisy in particular regarding Africa especially is French's hypocrisy in general.
Europeans and France inparticular are Hypocritical Political Parasites that has infested Africa with Lies and Deceit of BS democracy.
What we the Africans are saying is, we don't need masters but business partners to help build our nations.
Hearing an European accusing others of colonialism is like listening to Genghis Khan accusing his victims of warmongering or NATO claiming to be a defensive organisation.

It is not China or Russia or is indeed Frances's new imperialism in Africa that is the root cause. France always defended the rights of big corporations to exploit Africa'naturel resources to their own benefits with no returns for the population.

France importing is mostly from Germany ($101B), Italy ($49.5B), Spain ($47.6B), Belgium ($44.4B), and Netherlands ($43.7B). Every one of them country import totals are more than African continent total. You people are clueless.

How can France which has no gold has 3 largest deposits of gold africa and still they colonizing degol said france with out africa is like 3 world country
No gold? The French alps and the rhine rive has plenty of gold and for two hundred years France have been mining in Salsigne, near Carcassonne.
France without Africa is a 3rd world country. What? France imports around 27 billion from African countries and exports to Africa around the same exact value
France importing is mostly from Germany ($101B), Italy ($49.5B), Spain ($47.6B), Belgium ($44.4B), and Netherlands ($43.7B). Every one of them country import totals are more than African continent total. You people are clueless. They leave Africa they lose 27 billion worth of imports and so does Africa. And you think they'd become 3rd world. Get a grip.
@@IrishCinnsealach 80% of cobalt comes from Africa. You import 27 billion because you pressure Africa into giving you these materials for significantly less than what they're worth, then you sell what you import at a huge markup, then give Africa the crumbs of the profit.
Without African cobalt your tech production would slow down significantly, which is worth far more than your number based sophistry suggests. And that's only ONE, of the materials you get from Africa.
@@MB2.0 right do yourself a favour and process these facts. the main importers of the Congos cobalt are $2.17B), Singapore ($148M), South Korea ($15.1M), Belgium ($12.9M), and Malaysia ($12.1M).
The DRC supplies about 70 percent of the world's Cobalt, but 80% of its industrial cobalt mines are owned or financed by Chinese companies.
As for your claims of underpaying for cobalt well unfortunately for you the price of the drcs cobalt is recorded on the database of the world Bank website that's right there for you to see.
Do you people ever do any proofreading or cross referencing? If you did you would of known the international trade value and you would of realised that its China who imports the most and owns the mines and is currently going through a dispute with Congo and the exports were halted in July.
Yet no matter what the reality is or the fact that just a basic search will put you straight people like you just can't remove yourselves from blaming the west for everything.
So now you have the actual facts and the knowledge that all customs data is recorded and all stock Value is. So who is it you said were pressuring Africa?
@@IrishCinnsealach like I said, the cobalt example was only ONE of many, If you want a prime example of France's plundering, look at where their 4th largest gold reserves and their uranium, come from. In case you're too clueless to figure it out by now, that gold comes from compulsory solidarity, aka French piracy via the CFA. WL did a piece on how France exploits African workers to get that nuclear power you cherish so much, so I won't have delve further into that.
After that, look at the predatory loans your IMF(a western institution) used to debt trap Africa since the 1960s when it gained faux independence. The IMF only restructures debt if the country adopts neoliberal policies, which like I said, results in foreign companies extracting resources for pennies on the dollar, France is one of those countries.
That means halfwits like you can google France's imports(which it got from Africa for pennies on the dollar) and think France sending back 27 billion is charity, and not a miniscule sliver of the profits it made via African minerals.
@UCufKNkT2OsXPNizQ0yCT11w like you said the cobalt example is one of many? I've just shown you that France isn't even in the top 3 importers of cobalt. And that China has the grip of cobalt in the DRC. So it's actually one of many examples of how you don't know what you're talking about. As for it's gold. Do you know it's biggest gold mine is Montagne d'Or mine that's in South America BTW
How about you actually name these minerals and how much was imported by France instead of making unsubstantiated and uneducated claims. Just remember that the main countries France imports from are Germany. China.Italy.United States. .Belgium. .Spain. .Netherlands. and the UK
You don't even have to look to history to understand African resentment for France. A single data point is illustrative: To this day, Former French colonies in West Africa are obliged pay 85% of their foreign reserves amounting to $500 billion every year to the French treasury. The only access these countries have to their own money is through loans which they have to repay with interest.
Absolute nonsense all those countries should stop those payments immediately agreement or not that is the same BS they did to Haiti.
@@frankcrozier2592 I agree in principle but wish it was that simple for those countries. For starters, France has the repeatedly demonstrated capacity to destroy them in short order by;
1. imposing crushing sanctions on their already struggling economies,
2. calling in loans that will drain their meagre forex reserves - making it impossible to buy/import any products from anywhere in the world, immediately force them into default, & consequently crush their economies,
3. exclude them from the CFA monetary & economic union with the other 7 states in the region, with devastating consequences for the population,
4. funding & arming a coup or rebel groups,
5. engineering regime change through funding & training ‘civil society’ groups (color revolution)
This is largely why West Africans (outside the elites) harbour so much resentment for France in West Africa. It has less to do with historical colonisation & more to do with French neo-colonialism! I wish the French people would take the time to try to understand this iteration of colonialism. Its more nuanced but as insidious & equally devastating in its consequences.
You don't have your facts right. But your on to something.
@@andycole1065 Generalities are unhelpful. Be specific, what are the facts? History is on my side for sure. I can point you to specific examples where France employed various combinations of the coercive measures I listed above.
@@controversial1994 the African country don't get it back in a loan. But France those control their currency. Nor do they have to pay France 85% the money is just kept in French Treasury and has to be sent to the African countries whenever they need it. Obviously that is not ideal for any country in the African country should seek to control their own currency. But think of it more in line of how the US uses the dollar to control all of the world's currencies.

No worries, the champagne will continue to flow in *abundance* for European elites.

@@paulheydarian1281 dollar manipulation, the enslavement of the Middle East with your client dictators and continued theft of developing countries resources are daily news. Your veto power in the UN is next to go, then that's all folks.
Agree, that is Macron's Words "The era of abundant if Over" So the Very Truth he Knows All Along that his Country is Enslaving, Oppressing Africa for their NATURAL RESOURCES. Thus he knows all along that his Country French, - Cannot Survive anymore Without Africa and its People to be Oppress by these so Called "high minded people, civilized european" eh?
Anti French feelings has grown due in part how France treats Africans in France and how far right ideologies have grown root in French society.
France has been a destabilizing force in Africa and its economic and political prosperity. This is why many African countries are looking elsewhere for partnerships.
Hi from UK we love you French Africa ❤️❤️❤️
the whole world is rising up in anti-imperial western hegemony . africa is juts part of this,
@@evryatis9231which country?
As a European woman, I never understood how deep the colonial grievances were and still are. It was only after I became Muslima and married a Moroccon man, that I became concious of the real truth.
My father in law is more than 90 years old and has experienced the colonial time. He met the French colonisers himself when he was a child, and he still remembers their brutality. If they suspected one person of showing hostility to the French soldiers, they would start shooting on everyone in the village. Once they took his dad apart. He was terrorised that he wouldn't see his dad again, without a reason. A soldier gave him a candy when he had to wait on the side of the road. He was so afraid that it was poisoned (in his mind it would suit them doing this) so he didn't accept it. His father was released again (apparently they only wanted some information), but it illustrates well how much the common people feared the French colonisers. They had the worst name, and still do.
France, and all colonising countries, should finally admit how bad their history has been, and not try to lessen their bad behaviour by saying "yes, we killed some people, but we also brought civilisation, factories, trains..."
Nobody sees getting a factory as a worthy compensation for the loss of loved ones but the sick minded.
I am appalled by the way we learned history lessons at school and never got a grip on how ferocious we behaved in other countries. Never learned how the World Bank is - still today - expecting African countries to repay debts that European colonisers made in their countries.
European countries send some missionary aid but they get back seven times more money than they spend. They still keep Africa poor and unable to progress. That's how they want it. Europe should be a beaken of civilisation, and the African countries should be poor and thanking Europe on their knees for all the tidbits they get.
Africa is growing up. And Africa will tell another tale of history.
You are a traitor. I will burn a Quran and think of you.
Yes chocho tell them n them n leave them ignorance is not an excuse
@wardachrouaa7281: That "sick mindedness" is endemic in nations all over the west from the US to New Zealand. You don't have to dig very deep to encounter those who are still worshipping the confederacy and teaching that chattel slavery was a "jobs program" which "rescued" black people from Africa, and legions of apologists for the worse excesses of apartheid South Africa and Rhodesia and of every other European colonial enterprise which has ever existed. That mentality transcends political parties and ideologies and European borders with ease and without any variation in its twisted message.
Cool but you live in France 😂 as Zillions of Africans and African descendents. Maybe you should look forward instead of promoting hate based in things that happened when you weren't here.
And no one's expecting African Countries to pay anything. They can't even pay their own bills. European help Africa with Billions every year in Humanitary Help. And those are official numbers. Let's not forget how many Millions of European live in Africa, how many thousands are volunteers in Africa representing humanitary ententies, how many thousand eurooean soldiers from UN and others are in Africa to help those Countries to deal with their Civil Wars. And are there 'cause those Countries asked for help. Before you do populist generalizations based in the experience of your father in law (it's not even your experience) you should think about it. What good comes from Africans hating Europeans. The rrsukt of that will be European is hating Africans also when in Europe we all been promoting inclusivity for more than 50 years and Zillions of People in Europe are both European and Africans.
This is a good program, glad I found it as UK news is self absorbed now.
there are 14 French coionies or one can say french speaking countries in Africa. These countries have their monetary system controlled by Bank of France. Now these countries have decided to break that arrangement. France is placing the blame of this change on Turkiye, But France should understand that Turkiye gave a friendly advise to these countries on developing their own common currency which would be more beneficial to these countries. These countries have started working towards this goal.
Turkey isn’t doing that great economically with their crook president.
@@Farhankhan_the1 how well do you know Turkiye and how do you reach the conclusion that the economy is not doing well. Can you bring forward some facts. Finally it is not polite to describe the head of a State in such words.

France is like an abusive relationship and one party refuse to leave it, even when forced to leave. It like one person wants to leave their abuser and the abuser refuse to leave even when forced to.
Thanks for reporting the truth. ❤️
Let's talk about HAITI 🇭🇹
France.. Dont blame others.. blame yourself and your attitude...
Jeez ! When will they leave Africa to grow and feed it's people...?
Have you ever seen a sexual abuser wake up one morning to a sudden moral and ethical wake up call??? Freedom is taken and NOT given.
Africa is far too valuable to be ignored. That's why you have all those white and yellow faces running around.
It’s all about France 🇫🇷 and what benefits France 🇫🇷 and its people.
No more
Not it’s people!!! It’s elites!!🤷🏻♀️
Amazing and powerful statement released by Turkey. Great stuff. Peace and love
Black people all over the world is growing tired of Europeans oppressing them and they should expect for oppressed people to eventually stand up and fight for their freedom... 💪🏽🤴🏽👍🏽✊🏽
Black men need to wake up arm themselves too
When it comes to the West I remember what Ed Shultz used to say.
"Rule #1. They think you're stupid. "
Missing Ed Schultz.
I can't believe that in this age and time, France is still talking about the "process of de-colonization" of its 'former' African colonies🤦♂️
We Have to fight against USA imperialism too
Be careful. Americans in general support what Africa is doing. France is not very popular here and many in the Western nations are just finding out about the French control of the currency. I caution Africans, not to turn this into anti-Americanism. We did not colonize you. As a black American, descendant of slaves, it is not lost on me that Africans sold my ancestors to the colonizers. That fact does not stop me from cheering for Africa but anti-Americanism will.
@@keithgainey7853u r sleep. CIA intervention in Africa? Supplying War planes & ammunition to White SA? Africans sold us yes, but we're bullied and threatened by American & Europeans that they would & in many cases flatten out their villages. U sound very Uncle tommish. No mention of Atrocities committed on Blk folks here in America! U one negro who liked playing the game, good 4 u. What do you give back?

I believe the poster was saying the west as in the colonizers not us, African descendents/ family.
@@keithgainey7853stfu nobody cares what you black Americans think about Africans. Fix the social problems in your own communities. Leave Africans alone.
Never forget most of francophone Africa is forced to send 85% of its GDP to France + use a worthless currency controlled by France's central bank. Yet people expect these countries to develop.
Imagine you're taxed 85% of your salary every month but you have a family to look after. How would you live? 😂
Finally poor country realized France taking all there resource, No more French colonists
Very very true
Why all this drama in our motherland, not in their land. Wise up fellow Afrikans 🌍💪🏽
Macron has no shame trying to reference others countries as operating like a imperialist and neo colonial .
If each nation had avatars to represent their characters, France's would be : The Narcissist.
French President is really not serious. How dare he point the finger to other countries as France has been almost ruling post colonies, for the last 70 years....this is outrageous.
Thank you Turkey for telling the truth may God bless you and your country

This is one man that i truly in the deepest place in my heart can not stand
Masters of Neocolonialism complaining of someone with similar intentions, the irony is lost on him 😅. Regardless, the issue isn't about their past, it is about their present too.
I love Turkiye's comment, sounds fair to me. But it is not so much about the past, most Africans have moved on, but it is what France continues to do, people are not angry at Britain in Africa, at least not the same level as France.
Thank you from UK we love you guys ❤️
This satanic worshippers will destroy your country get rid of them
Just allow people to live there lives the way they deem appropriate for their survival.
Turkey flat out denies it's horrible past. Ask armenians ...
@@jillybe1873The British empire cannot be exonerated too quickly. It has also done a lot of evils to humanity especially against Africans and Indians. But I would let Indians talk about British brutalities and atrocities perpetrated against them. How dare the British media and talking heads say that yes, Britain did some bad things across Africa where it unfortunately colonized but also it brought civilization to those colonies? First of all how could an uncivilized Britain bring civilization to a people who were living peacefully in their villages and towns and cities? How did the British bring civilization to Africa when there were libraries and even universities in Africa before the Europeans arrived? A proper apology is due. As for reparations I am not sure we need any. We are richer than the West even after years of pillage and plundering of our resources. What we want is hands of Africa.
Bring it on .....More autonomy for these countries
The French have to go it's the last Colinizers in Africa, Africa needs to reposes all its resources.
The problem with the world
Western white colonial mindset
He is beginning for oil
not even sorry for Franc did in Africa just blame other countries
French imports oil primarily from Saudi Arabia and Norway, followed by the United Kingdom, Iraq, Iran, Nigeria, and Russia.
Africa is not a big oil continent
The USA alone produces 20 million barrels a day whereas the whole of Africa combined produces 7.9 million a day. Norway is a tiny country and produces 1. 9 million barrels a day
Macroni woo Macroni. What do you want? We Africans are going forward. If you really want to play forget your past, the game will only be without favour. This is real business, we are not battering anymore period.
Why fight and quarrel on a continent/country that is not your own? The self entitlement needs to come to an end...
Why everyone's nose in Africa?
Macron should stop interferring in other
countries' affairs.
All Western leaders are villains like in

Historically France or England....You cant Pick lol.....
Turkiye , russia , and china are culturally , linguistically disconnected from Africa / as Africans reflect the cultures and languages of former colonial masters france , britain , portugal , spain etc./ its simply the continuing effects of france 's colonial legacy fused with its post colonial relantionship is displacing france 's interests for better offers/deals/ partnership alternatives in a context of a changing world order .president Macron delivered the courage to embrace

The difference between France and Britain :-
a) de Gaulle "France cannot be France without greatness"
France has had a chip on its shoulder since at least 1840 (the Eastern crisis)
And things only got worse - 1870, WW1, and Vichy France.
b) Britain has the soldi parliamentary tradition, with MPs supporting Indian independence 1947, and Home Rule for Ireland 1922, and African independence.
Even during the American Independence war 1775-83, MPs said that the war was a waste - that it would make no difference to the British economy.
And that was correct. Even during the war British trade went through Canada
and nothing changed.
Russia China Cuba and North Korea were the reason most countries got independence in Africa
@@Sipho_Thenjwayo Total nonsense
The British parliament always expressed views in support of independence for Ireland, India, and later African nations.
1890s Home Rule for Ireland split the Liberals - part of them joined the Conservatives to become the Conservative & Ulster Unionist party
Likewise MPs supported India
Jinnah & Nehru both wanted their nations to follow the British example - secular democracies
Russia is an empire : the nations it conquered it annexed into a huge empire
Even today Russian TV boasts that it wants to retake Kazakhstan & Kyrgyzstan
Russia is a nationalist empire
The lunatic left forget that
@@vinm300 and what did I say that was nonsense China and North Korea support ZANLA in their fight to help Zimbabwe gain independce Brezhnev and Castro supported Joshua Mgqabuko Nkomo and ZIPRA in their fight to gain independence in Zimbabwe
