"We do not feel sorry for ourselves, we do not ask anyone to feel sorry for us." has to be inspired by the marx quote "we have no compassion and we ask no compassion from you, when our turn comes we shall not make excuses for terror".

thoughts on him? i really have no clue about what is going on in that region but he seems to be obviously inspired by sankara wearing that red beret (has to be intended right?)

anyways im sure this will be labeled russian propaganda by the west and they will completely ignore his anti-imperialist speech.

It looks like there is a rising movement to reclaim sovereignty in Africa and to kick western imperialists out. I think Burkina Faso absolutely deserves support from socialists.

I like that. Even in America.
