  • I’m not super well read on it, but to summarize:

    • We KNOW that the French definitely don’t have the interest of the Nigerian people at heart. (ask more if this isn’t clear).
    • We also know that the French government is neoliberal capitalist, and opposes the aims of the global socialist movement.
    • It remains to be seen how “good” or how “socialist” the future government turns out to be, but their initial actions of being hostile to French colonialism have been good for socialism so far.
    • the most demonstrable action has been to cut off exports of uranium to France, putting the government of Niger in the driver’s seat to control that. Now we wait (months, years?) to see if they use that to benefit their people.
