    France kept the African countries underdeveloped for decades on purpose by bribing governments and coups in Africa, and stole it's resources for dirt cheap.

    It really pisses me off that they keep complaining about refugees coming from Africa and treat them like shit, while they are the main force behind africa's extreme poverty and inequality.

    YouTube has good documentaries about france's influence on many African nations if you interested to look up more…

      @BlueFire me too. If they didn't genuinely want the Sahel countries to be vulnerable to being client states, they wouldn't have worked so long and so hard to ensure that they were client states.

      This is just one greedy exploiter annoyed that another greedy exploiter is getting a foot in the door.
