The AES has integrity, they believe in their people, unlike the countries in ECOWAS who depend on pleasing the west and begging for foreigners to help them. I think they have far more chance of surviving. The market of ECOWAS is non existent. Moving goods between countries is almost impossible.
Valid points. But still, geopolitics is sometimes a ruthless game of numbers, resources, and geographic location, giving ECOWAS more leverage and say. That's of course not to say that AES won't push forward. Time will tell...
Okay so the 75M can become well developed and gain more powers by being pan AFRICANs and develop industrial complex and also working with Mauritania and with partnership with CHINA can build a railroad from the coast all the way to Eritrea and they can suck talents from the coastal regions bcos especially Nigerian doesn't care if they have opportunities in the sahel they move to invest asap.And even with 75M they can grow into 165 millions bcos its simple with more foods security and jobs they can do 1Man to 4 women bcos their laws permits and with 4 women then we can ses like 35 people each from each families and that growing power are also alots
@oseiosei6649 brother, u should endeavour to give your point of views, no matter if they criticizing what one has said. Make arguments that are not merely ad hominens, but present the diversity of opinion and thought that exists in Africa. These kind of ad hominems don't really help or further the conversation. That's how a discussion thrives... Good day!
Nigeria 🇳🇬 also has a junta leader except he is political junta leader installed by the west and its no secret to the world who really won nigerias last presidential elections. It will be interesting to see where the sahel states and Nigeria are performing economically, 1, 3, and 5 years from now as a comparative analysis case study
This video age well, at all. It's rather unfortunate you didn't consider the current Geopolitical World where the Chinese and Russian's are pushing a Global Majority Agenda. Furthermore, before the posting of this video, it's wildly common news that Togo wants Lome as the primary port of entry and they signed this deal. As well as Guinea and Sierra Leone remains reliable ports for Mali. Even Benin resumed piped shipment of Niger Oil to China. You ignore the MOU signed with Nigeria and Morocco, and visits to Libya and Algeria. The China and Africa Summit led to strategic partnership increases and financial commitments. The AES has masterfully retaken more land since getting rid of the G5 and the UN. Then there's 2 more Gigantic International gatherings that will advance the AES cause in the coming month's. The BRICS Summit and the Russia AES Summit in November. For you to NOT acknowledge what these Pan Africanist has started is truly disappointing. The AES is just getting started. As we canvas recent news in Alkebulan. The Burkinabe approach to buying back Valuable Gold Mine vs. what the Ghanaian did in their Gold Refinery news is night and day. With the AES Central Bank, I can assure you, de dollarizing their 70 millon will be the biggest bulleyes they'll attack, once the Terrorists on their land are defeated. Not only are the Sahalian Lion's killing off the Western funded scavengers raiding their land, they're strategically removing every semblance of Western Economic tentacles embedded in their land. So, if you're saying the AES is charting a non Western path yet are discussing with their African brother's every step of the way to improve the GDP and GNI quality of the Sahalian people, Yes.
Fair enough, the video was made before the CHina-Africa Summit! :) But a valid point on the deals being pursued to ensure port access on the Atlantic, which anyway makes more sense than up north across the Sahara.
@@The_Nubianommetry_Podcastand also when their are developing and potential we forgot that the 400millions can be reduced so fast into 333M vs 165m bcos our west AFRICANs moves for opportunities.and nobody cares.and also they can link railways from Mauritania all the way to eritreas and sudan in Future.
ECOWAS should negotiate for merger rather than causing Disintegration. ECOWAS and the AES must consider becoming a Confederation (Alliance) of African States with a Common Currency, Common Defence Pact, Common Foreign Policy open to all African Nations, just like the EU. Additionally, a common Currency not pegged to any Foreign one and finally a Payment system within Africa. Further , what we need in Africa is a 100% Political and Economic Independence NOW. Thus here, absolute Sovereignty NOW. However, each Nation should be sovereign to govern as it wants. In this way we can attain "the first Step" to the unity we want, and anyone against our Union cannot infiltrate anyhow, thus allowing us to concentrate on the Infrastructure building and the AFCFTA (Common Market). Please let us think sincerely about this. Africa must unite.
While you wait on your utopian idea of Alkebulan, the AES is miles ahead of where you are. You are the AU and ECOWAS in a nutshell, AU Quick Response Standby Force been an idea since 2012, ECO been a concept since 2010. The AES is tired of waiting. The AES went much further than your glorified overview of Alkebulan, yet it took China 2000 year's to unify. Alkebulan has Somalia vs Ethiopia, Ethiopia vs Sudan & Egypt, Ethiopia vs Eritrea, DRC vs Rwanda, Rwanda vs Uganda, Libya vs Everyone, Morocco vs Algeria, West Sahara is occupied, Mauritius vs Colonial Power's, do you see how many conflict's that is away from perfect unification. The AES has not only gotten rid of Colonial border's, it seamlessly Intergrated most of the Western Sahel region. Niger and Nigeria are collaborating on the border and are arresting Terrorists. Blackmen don't need to wait for your Unification to collaborate, for the betterment of their people. Unification is a Western constructed obstacle because they know it'll be a Century before Unification, so to stymie the rebirth of Empire's. Well guess what, the AES IS THE MALI EMPIRE REBORN, on Their terms.
@@julianandygumbsVIAES is their own alliance. However, per Traore himself, their confederacy already has other Afrikan countries that it would exclude from consideration in same. He cites Cote D’Ivoire, as well as Ghana and Kenya due to the difference in histories and Political cultures. Constitutional republics that are embraced by their constituents present a different reality and prospect than countries that have yet to experience same. While a military leadership solution may have worked for the AES, it is still rejected as a prospect in the other countries. The divergence in governance are amongst the many reasons why the continent and regions have no unitary prospects whatsoever… ECOWAS has a future…it’s pending dissolution..
@julianandygumbsVI But don't u think u r too optimistic of the chances of success for the AES? There are so many variables that could tip the balance either way, with the best case being more of a status quo scenario....
So you think the African people in west Africa are not going to pressure their government to help the AES ship their goods to west African ports? You don’t know African people.
@oseiosei6649 people pressuring their governments is a tactic that works in very few countries, more in the global North than in the Global South. I sincerely don't think the success of the AES should hinge on pressure from ECOWAS Citizens, as they would only end up being disappointed. Negotiating with various ECOWAS Heads of State though has a greater chance of working....
@BonsuBigWhale fair point, change of power, especially involving a different party most often than not leads to changes in foreign policy, sometimes if only to spite the outgoing regime.
@@The_Nubianommetry_Podcast for some reason YT deleted my response. But to summarize it, there are a few ECOWAS countries that have extended requests to enter into bilateral, country to country relations. It is incumbent on the AES to seek unobstructed access to the ports of the countries they engage with, as a good faith gesture that would prove that they are not in any way still beholden to the very external entities that AES has expelled from their lands. If not possible it could only be based on such a compromised position. Or would those countries choose to continue laying siege to AES on their own? The countries that are choosing to engage AES, based on the attempt to be good neighbors and show brotherhood, have to be “Abel” to prove they are not “Cain.”.
which colonial mind? What part of the video are u referring to? Care to elaborate your view on this new confederation, so i know where u r coming from?
