Dans un monde juste, certaines autorités françaises de l'époque, seraient déjà poursuivies/condamnées dans une cour internationale de justice pour complicité de génocide
@fabricearfi@alainjuppe en 2015 sur #archives#Mitterrand :
"l’idée que la France ait pu participer, organiser ou avoir une responsabilité, quelle qu’elle soit, dans le génocide [est] une falsification historique"

President Macron has made announcements of the same kind before- like special post-pandemic allocation, extra SDR diversion to Africa, promises of the Paris Summit on new financing. The tangible outcomes so far: "to be seen", not yet there. ODA slashed, FDI declining, reprioratisation of EU towards Ukraine. With a current FDI stock of $60 billion it is hard to believe on a $27 billion additional investment in the continent. Looks pretty though... at yet another Summit.
This is Kenyan President William Ruto boasting that Kenyans speak better English than Nigerians 🤣🤣🤣
He is confusing accent with diction.
When African presidents boast that their citizens speak “better English” than others, they are not demonstrating a strong education system, as Ruto claims, they are showcasing a deep inferiority complex rooted in colonial conditioning.
English is a colonial language, not a measure of intelligence, capability, or national progress.
You can be fully fluent in a language and still have an accent that is difficult for some listeners to understand, as Nigerians do. Fluency means you have a strong command of vocabulary, grammar, and the ability to express ideas.
Accent, on the other hand, relates to pronunciation, rhythm, and intonation, which are shaped by your first language and speech environment, which is what Ruto is confusing with good English. Has he ever had someone from Scotland, Liverpool, or Birmingham speak?
Accents are a natural linguistic outcome, not a measure of education. They emerge from the influence of a person’s first language, the sounds and speech patterns they grow up with, and the environment in which they learn and use another language.
Every language has its own phonetic structure, and when people speak a second language like English, those underlying patterns shape pronunciation, rhythm, and tone. That is why accents vary across regions and countries. They reflect history, identity, and exposure, not intellectual or educational superiority.
I know that there is some kind of tension between Nigeria and Kenya, but such misleading statements undermine the confidence of young people. When they hear a president speak like that about how they speak, it erodes their self-belief, and that is not a good thing to come from a president.

@cooltechtipz Taking good care of your family and giving them your time, isn't that considered making progress in life?
This is probably true in your world or the one you want to impose in other parts of the world.
France owes 30 billion euros to Haïti
In 1825, the French state imposed a tribute on Haiti to compensate slave owners for their loss of property. It is now time to start concrete discussions about restitution.
