Mali and Niger cut ties with Ukraine after its military-intelligence representative admitted that Kiev backs groups that they consider to be terrorists.
"If there was anyone clever in charge of Ukrainian soft power..."
No comment.
"Had they implemented the policy that was described above..."
Соломку постелили бы...
Had they not somehow been enchanted by a portly lady, soon to become Fats Nuland, handing out 'cookies'; had they not indulged in childish fantasies of big-man JohnWayne/JamesBond bully bollocks from such a profoundly philosophical mind as that behind the lips of Moron McCain; had they not somehow convinced themselves money from America was more important than the role the Orthodox Church has played and continues to play in their good (until suddenly for no apparent reason it wasn't good any more) fortune... The list goes on.
I'm working on it. Had lots online, got disappointed with it, unpublished loads of it (There is still something of a visual index online (https://mcddd.substack.com/p/yankee-doodle-day).) was asked not to give up, had a re-think, and now I expect to get some new and some revamped stuff (back) up in a week or so, maybe even less (5-6 days).
Not to change course, but it's clearly upset with Mali and now Niger for drawing global attention to what it boasted about, including at the UN like they plan to do.

Life is so much more simple in hindsight.
I love your description of Fats Nuland and your reference to the dead moron. I am anxious to seeMcDdd's Substack.
Thanks for the feedback!

As if Ukraine cared.
I think it does care though since its Foreign Ministry published a long rant in response to this.
Enough to change course or just attempt to bully Africans into bending the knee?

Not sure I understand.
