is why over a 1000000000 people have various fights worldwide. i'm sure. over the next 5 days, there's much more to come for wrapping up this live out here at all to use and natural. i real res. to shy stuffing aside for motor. i've come on a, for the meantime, from the entire new team here, the onto the international my, the ship. i switch on the the, the keep spend to stay in campbell county in limo. and today we want to discuss the history, the long history you may in between the african continent and the

former soviet union, u. s. s. are those of us who a student of history will remember, there was an in to made relationship between the u. s. s. r and form of freedom fight. we will also remember that in many institutions of line in, in africa. at that time, the us aside was being seen as in the breeding ground of marxism leninism. on many young africans, colors, was our truck to, to the u. d. all, and we will also remember that the russian revolution, the bolshevik revolution of 1917, is followed many african countries, which was under the yoke of western color. nice ation. and therefore,

when we talk about that history, it can never be seen without taking into account doc, reality, russia, all the us is our, as we knew it and it's for, before we have complete success that we do, that i can for there is just them was seen as an important ally on one must ask why we must remember that african country is that all of them. the 54 of them was been victimize by the head jim on if you to the bowers. and when the 1900 on 17 resolution to praise many african leaders at the time who in the struggle was taking a cue from it. if you look, i sell its off with the for example, with the formation of the south african national native congress, which later became then see the guy didn't. i was what had happened in

the soviet union in 1917. and they was telling themselves we can actually nobody tell us stuff from these colonial yoke. and if you look at the activities, even in nigeria with people like muscle, a, there was taken not to, of, from these activities at that time. and even the soviet union stockton to have its own in international affairs. it was seen very differently from western countries. first of all, it was not seen at that point. oh, nice. and it was not involved in this cromwell for africa. so the soviet union was not present at byline. the soviet union did not top any 3030 that was blaming the soviet union was seen as the bus in all river lucian on the bus, then of change which off with some people decide from the apollo new york out of

cost. we know that from 1900 down 7 do you know of cost in the fast. why do all the role of the soviet union was not as prominent as it became after they wired war 2, when the court will then came into the every now and we could very easily talk of by for a while, the west on the soviet union. so in many ways, when african countries are now involved in the struggle for independence in 1900 on for this through to 1950 is on the ultimate to 1900 as 6 to the not to lie was seen to be the soviet union for a number of reasons. if you look at the african national congress in south africa, many of the freedom fights as well gravitating towards the soviet union. not only for you do a logical reasons, but full support, financial support, and not only full financial support, sometimes ministry support on this positions had to be made. so when you look at

with us with us, you'll find that there was a very intimate relationship between the soviet union and the african national congress. and it was not the only confined to that. you will note that in the very early days of this struggle in the 1950 is a lot of african freedom fights as was attracted to the soviet union. the soviet union was being seen. i've done time. i believe that are based on when we talk about still get 10 and we must also remember at that time the great influence in countryside does hungry countryside. just portland countries, such as is germany on when this call a ship to i've been granted the movement for the east. there was a lot of people from different fox of africa who then found themselves going to society in moscow. and in saint petersburg, at the behest of the soviet union. and that in itself, grow naturally because of the freedom fighters of the day on want to name the one

for name gum. i've been nicer when gum i'm the master was over throwing them one king bed rope. he inclined to watch the soviet union and didn't did. when the us one high don was being built. he did the soviets, who actually find on the building of the us, one high down. and the key was also taken by plumbing room. when gun i'd gained independence in 1957. 1 of the things that's happened is that you wanted to build the costs of them with them out of costs. at that time. he approached several western countries. they did not agree. and when he told the i'm now going to the soviet union, ben, verify not the person but them. and that is one of the reasons why in oklahoma, well then labeled as a communist. the same label was also born by hot medicine. re of gives me was very sympathetic to the silvia style of gum when i was,

as was indeed has been bad. and you want to see at the time because the soviet union talked about communism. there was something that was beginning to emerge in africa called me will not lose them, understand different socialism. and do you see it in uh, in, in, in grow my in the gonna you see it and i'm going to stick with today and again, you see it in what people came in the model and you see it and haven't been bella in. uh, jetta. yeah. you see it in the government denies cetera, in, in the you know, you use it in can you know, sufficient or nothing. but then on african socialism at the time we've progressed on my university was very strong in canyon at that time. and even in those days, many people incline the whole idea of moving to a governance system, which was not the one the puppets are listed. and you see it with yeah, that it,

when he talks about dad who show the collaboration, he is much more inclined to the views that are thinking later in the soviet union on 1 may say marxism leninism with some africanized vision aspect of it. and later, the soviet union becomes account. wait, account the way to was done wild death. want to bid that audio. they want to tell you what to do. the one to 10 you who to be you a friend, the one to 10. you were to trade with, i'm many people are saying, but we have retained our independence. why should we be treated like literally the children? that question is being asked to buy little moons in the democratic republic of phone book is being thought, oh, you cannot ask for support. but lou must a's. you have put me in a situation where the belgians want to remove me from power 9 months of the re a be gained or independence. they have reported them over to the recruitment because of all the put the drum,

but on the vosta you and to assist me and you don't want to assist me. i'm now asking the soviet union to assist me. and of course, they say that the danger of communism getting into the heart of africa must be eliminated. and we now know that the code name use the for the wound was saved. and he was referred to satan because you were seem to have been applying to what the soviet union at the top left. uh, we also see the soviet union involved in the liberation movement. gibberish and movement, which cannot be fine arms or cannot be granted by other parts of the was particularly western europe and it is said, i think it is somewhat a moist, that's my cell and robot goverlan will god. but we said that we who are losing that is we swear by the collection of cove, big k, 40 k, what do 7?

this was the weapon of choice for all the struggle for independence. and do they also see that the, the involvement of the soviet union in was the big through supply obama. we see the involvement of the soviet union event during the goal of civil war. when the south africans on the americans are involved crying in pro is imposed in the it is the soviet union and the cubans who actually and succeeded in ensuring that on board was not taken all of us on it is important that the soviet union was not only involved in terms of trying to or ensure the us the complete on site as well. nobody in there do kitchen. i reno after the submission of patrice emily the moon, but in 1961, the friendship unit budget is the name, the little more about your new budget the i think in moscow fund many of the guns then went to study at the patrice, emily, lumber,

friendship university got to see of the soviet union. when the soviet union collapses on the country is then become what we now know them. and i've to produce struck on glasnost. and ultimately you have russia, russia unfinished and is seen as the success of the soviet union. the russian federation is seen of the success of the soviet union, and that is why even as we continue, you know, while that we say is multi lateral, you'll begin to see that many african countries still gravitate towards this last year in the, on the funding there is no thought that we knew that russia was their own kind of the soviet union. we knew that the most coal was a friendly site on the full plaza, a number of countries, even in this day and age. remember the days when the soviet union, the sup pointed the freedom fighting movement, the,

i remember those days when they support the people through education, they remember those days when they sent the technology in, even in places such as if the up, the, they remember when this and the, at the chronology in different countries in the continent of africa and it is out of boston, those dodge. that is, what time may cause i revival on the renewal of friendship between why the number of countries on the dash on what i'm seeing is it quite a bit densely incent, pronounced. what country public with the new administration one see quite evidently in there isn't activities that have taken place in the sy in the region. and you can see the presence of russia all day, october, invitation over by a government in the side of the region by a government in booking of us. so, by governments, in new se, by governments, in money,

by governments indicating it cannot be the saying, you uh, our friend in our, i'll meet on you, our friend who did not tell us how to behave. you walked with us with think that you can be a better friend than the others who claim they are friends, but they want to tell us how to govern ourselves. and you can now see the kind of relationship is being a good point on our relationship. and the russians are responding in the context of that history. and the relationship is one that is built on in did the relationship between the soviet union and now russia is like a tree which has been what ag with the bladder. so the data on that is why it is intimate, intimate, because the soviet union was never,

ever seen as color nice. never seen as people who scrambled on divided africa never seen as a parasite. that takes off because resources never seen as a, a concrete that dictates to africa. spect seen as a friend with whom they can enjoy a symbiotic that rather than not, but a certificate relationship. that is the context of don, very long history. we continue with the conversations about the continent of africa, but we will come again of a short break. see the on march the 22nd 1943. doing the great petri,

we'll take the shirts and bunch of cuts out in 118 and down the belly, mercy. and for that you have cutting the ship of some person. if i did the you wish to be loaded in the fitness center. yes. the this one, most of the rooms to pony it to you. 149 people died including 75 children of age who was practically wiped off the face of the long new blue loves of the orchard. and couldn't, charlie was, you know, june, will you put it as follows? oh, shoot was hard really. i really usually don't you? sonya. so the infamous battalion responsible for the actual city included over $100.00 ukrainian nationalists from west to new. right. because of the picture. all right, let's see. ok. so far as the new you on the so long as to.
