Africa – EU: Faced with the rise of pan-Africanism, is France using the EU as a lever to punish those who are awakening the African people?
Africa must remain vigilant in the face of a new strategy of domination that is taking shape before our very eyes. According to our sources in Belgium, a devious plan is being implemented whereby France, known for its colonial past and persistent influence in Africa, is seeking to instrumentalise the European Union in order to stifle any opposition to its paternalistic policy on the African continent.
France, unable to impose its will directly in the face of the rise of Pan-Africanism and the awakening of the African people, is said to be using the European Union as a lever to punish those who dare to denounce its practices. The trick? To make these defenders of African interests look like agents in Russia’s pay.
This well-honed tactic is part of a wider narrative aimed at discrediting all critical voices on the pretext of fighting foreign interference.
The question is: is the European Union simply a tool at France’s service? A number of decisions taken in Brussels appear to be directly influenced by French interests in Africa.
Unjustified sanctions, based on false reports, are imposed on Africans engaged in the fight for the sovereignty of their continent. As if Africans were not capable of knowing what is good for them!
Africans must refuse to be the silent victims of this masked interference. It is important to denounce this manipulation and alert African and international public opinion to these strategies of domination, which persist in new forms.
The fight for a free and sovereign Africa cannot be won without collective awareness.
