[ColonelCassad] How fast things are happening. Only recently he wrote how terrorists from JNIM threaten to sue Russia, which does not allow them to organize a jihad and sends military advisers and PMCs to West Africa, as "suddenly" Western analytical the center picks up this theme and begins to expand the Overton Window on the topic of which terrorists and against whom it is worth doing business. As soon as the terrible, terrible Russians began to show interest in the "African Afghanistan" in the person of Mali and offer Bamako their help, as in the main lobbyists of the wars (https://t.me/rybar/21786) NATO represented by think-tank International Crisis Group rolled out analytics (https://t.me/strana_tuaregov/431) on the topic "Is it possible to have a dialogue with the Al-Qaeda branch in Mali?" We are talking about the Jabhat Nusrat al-Islam wal-Muslimin (JNIM) group, with which both the official authorities and the contingent of Operation Barkhan are fighting. On February 5, 2021, the International Crisis Group called (https://t.me/rybar/16548) the US authorities to revise the classification of the Syrian "Hayat Tahrir al-Sham" as terrorists and establish a dialogue. If in the case of HTS the formal severing of ties between the international terrorist organization Al-Qaeda and the former Jabhat al-Nusra played into the hands, in Mali the main lobbyists of NATO's wars went further. The author of the analytical channel In the country of the Tuareg @strana_tuaregov tells in detail (https://t.me/strana_tuaregov/431) about the main proposals of the think-tank: - start a dialogue with terrorists on the territory of a third country - for example, in Algeria, Qatar, Mauritania or Norway with Switzerland; - terrorists need to open a political office and form a negotiating committee; - France needs to stop being stubborn and hold off military operations for the duration of the negotiations; - The Jabhat Nusrat al-Islam wal-Muslimin group needs to officially break with al-Qaeda. Apparently, the International Crisis Group was commissioned to study public opinion after the Taliban came to power in Afghanistan. NPOs have to find out in which states are ready to put up with terrorists and under what conditions. It is difficult to explain such proposals by other reasons. https://t.me/rybar/23008 Thick hint that if you are friends with terrorists against Russians, then a lot is possible. If you look in general, it looks like preparation for the recruitment of the next "sons of bitches" that will be required at various theaters in the framework of the new Cold War against China and the Russian Federation. PS. After numerous complaints from France to the EU and NATO about the fact that it was being kicked out of Mali (plak-plak), the EU imposed sanctions against the Wagner PMC and its leader, Colonel Utkin, for "human rights violations" in Sudan, CAR, Ukraine. Libya, Syria and Mozambique. Also introduced separate sanctions against the leadership of Mali "for obstructing a democratic transition." It is clear that this is all due to the fact that the Russians are settling in Mali, and the French were asked to leave from there. "Democracy in Mali is in danger. I will complain to Brussels!" Hence the sanctions hysteria to somehow console Macron, who lost two countries in the French sphere of influence during his term. Of course, Wagner will continue to operate in Africa, as its success is the best advertisement for local governments, Ironically, during Haftar's offensive against Tripoli, Wagner and France were on the same side, since both Russian PMCs and France were involved in supporting Haftar. And there France was never embarrassed by such a neighborhood, because France was not concerned about "human rights in Libya" but about the expulsion of "friend Recep" from destroyed Libya, with which the "Total" corporation had oil contracts (guaranteed by Haftar), which could have gone to dust if Erdogan had captured Cyrenaica (but thanks to the work of PMCs and Russian military assistance, as well as Egypt's threats to enter the war, the plans of the "friend of Recep" did not come true). |
