      When African states go communist (marxism-leninism) they experience rapid growth and social progress, me too.

        *without conflict though (Africa, including with ML states, can’t get a break from fighting, huh)

        Just next time, if there was less infighting, it’d be good, you know, in Horn of Africa for example. (Eritrea vs Ethiopian vs Tigray vs Somalia; all of these were once Marxist Leninist and aligned to China or USSR at one point)

        That, and less compradors and western collaborators to clash with the MLs (RENAMO and UNITA in Mozambique and Angola, backed by US and South Africa)

        To the conquest of the liberty and of the progress: the country or the death, we will vanquish!

          That is a literal translation, but the actual translation is more like:

          In the acquisition (conquest) of liberty and progress: Father(/Mother/Home)land or death, we shall triumph (vanquish/conquer/overcome/win over)!

          Here’s a video outlining 2 attempts and gives some background.

          This article lists another 2.

          The security forces claim that they thwarted at least 18 assassination and coup attempts so far in Traore’s term.
