Russian Disinformation In Africa: No Door On This Barn – Analysis

In 2018, Yale scholar Timothy Snyder called Russian information operations in the 2014 Russian annexation of Crimea, “the most sophisticated propaganda campaign in the history of warfare.”

Au Sénégal, Fass Boye, port d’embarquement clandestin pour les Canaries

Plus de 1 500 km séparent le village de pêcheurs du territoire espagnol. Malgré la grande dangerosité de cette route migratoire, les jeunes, désœuvrés, sans espoir, continuent de partir.

A l’abri sous une paillote de fortune sur la plage de sable blanc, Babacar Dièye regarde quelques pêcheurs sortir deux maigres caisses de poissons de leur pirogue colorée. Des gestes répétés à maintes reprises avec son frère de 37 ans qui a disparu dans le bateau secouru le 15 août au large du Cap-Vert, qui avait pour objectif de rejoindre clandestinement les îles espagnoles des Canaries. « Je suis encore sous le choc… Nous n’avons pas de corps, ni personne pour nous expliquer les raisons de son décès, c’est trop dur », se lamente le pêcheur, qui a pris en charge la veuve et les quatre enfants du disparu.

A List Of The World’s Strongest Military Powers

    The Swiss Armed Forces are the country’s primary defense force on land and in the air. Some regular soldiers comprise a minor portion of the military under the militia system.

Brown Future: Migration Flows And The Law Of Unintended Consequences

The report is horrible to contemplate. A major Western human rights organization reports that Saudi border troops may have killed hundreds of Ethiopian migrants attempting to enter the Kingdom’s borders from Yemen.[1] Whatever the details or context of this particular case turn out to be, the upshot is that here was a country that would defend its borders aggressively, with deadly force. Despite frequent criticism of American and European border policies, that rarely happens with those countries.
