Wikipedia (yeah I know) says General Horta Inta-A Na Man "attended a Soviet military academy, as he wears a badge on his uniform from his time in the USSR"

So that could be cool. But I think its just a wait and see situation.

I hope that's a good sign. More countries joining the AES revolution can oy help the anti-imperialist cause.

For now it's wait and see, but there's undeniably a chance that the 2020s become the decade of West African revolutions in a somewhat dominoe esc fashion.

I'm ignorant of the largest continent on Earth(, come on, Asia cannot be only one continent), but i took note of Amílcar Cabral, assassinated by the portuguese, and the African Party for the Independence of Guinea and Cape Verde. Their history books are different from ours.
