'US & France Driven Out!': Putin Links 5 Nations In New Russia-Sahel NATO Axis | Firstpost Africa

Watch this video as Firstpost examines how Russia is building an expanding security network across North and West Africa, linking Algeria, Libya, Niger, Burkina Faso and Mali through military partnerships, logistics routes, Africa Corps deployments and growing economic ties. Moscow is not creating a formal African NATO. But Russia is assembling a flexible network that could reshape the region's security architecture without requiring a common treaty or integrated command. From Russian military-linked flights through Libya to Africa Corps deployments in the Sahel, Moscow's footprint is expanding as France and the United States lose strategic ground. Algeria provides military strength, Libya offers a crucial logistics bridge, while Mali, Niger and Burkina Faso form the operational core of the Alliance of Sahel States. At the same time, Russia is deepening access to gold, uranium and other strategic resources. As Western influence retreats, is Putin building a new power bloc in Africa? Alyson Le Grange tells you more on Firstpost Africa.
