🇫🇷 France losing great power status as Africa turns to BRICS

Following the July 26 military takeover in Niger, the nation's de facto government has demanded that French diplomats and troops leave the West African state. Nonetheless, the Elysee Palace resisted the demands, claiming that it would withdraw only if Niger’s ousted President Mohamed Bazoum requested it. However, on September 24, Macron gave up.

💬 "France hiding behind President Bazoum has been a farce to cover up the end of the French neocolonial empire of Africa," Paolo Raffone, a strategic analyst and director of the CIPI Foundation in Brussels, told Sputnik. "The army-led events that have changed governments in many countries in the Sahel region, although each different for their domestic logic, share a common and widely supported desire to end the de facto French 'mandate.'"

🪖 US-made ATACMS sent to Ukraine 'risk ending up on black market'

There is no clarity as to how many of the ATACMS will be delivered to Ukraine, nor when they will arrive, UK military analyst Sean Bell has warned on British media.

He added that there were several reasons that gave Washington pause when it came to signing off on the weapons that Volodymyr Zelensky had been clamoring for. One of these was that the ballistic missiles can be used at long distances, and if they target Russian territory there is a grave risk the situation could escalate.

Sean Bell added that there are no big war stocks of these ATACMs, as they are very expensive, high-tech weapons.

🇪🇺🇷🇺 The EU will not be able to completely abandon gas supplies from Russia in the near future, as this could inflate market prices, Kirill Logvinov, the acting head of the Russian mission to the EU, told Sputnik.

💬 "If we talk about calls for a complete refusal of Russian supplies of ‘blue fuel,’ including LNG, then in the near future this is impossible. Refusal to purchase it from Russia under existing long-term contracts will entail serious financial costs for the European Union. Stopping the use of free volumes of domestic LNG in conditions of limited supply will once again increase energy prices in the EU," Logvinov said.

❗️Terrorist attack on Nord Streams had little to do with Ukrainian crisis, Hersh says

💬 “It resulted from fears in the White House that Germany would waver and turn on the flow of Russia gas—and that Germany and then NATO, for economic reasons, would fall under the sway of Russia and its extensive and inexpensive natural resources. And thus followed the ultimate fear: that America would lose its long-standing primacy in Western Europe,” Pulitzer Prize-winning US investigative journalist Seymour Hersh.
