WSJ: US wants to deploy reconnaissance drones in three African countries
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.[Regnum] The United States wants to deploy its reconnaissance drones in African countries with access to the Atlantic Ocean to prevent the spread of Islamist groups in the region. The Wall Street Journal writes about this on January 3. Washington has begun “exploratory talks” aimed at deploying American unarmed surveillance drones at airfields in Ghana, Ivory Coast and Benin, American and African officials told the publication. It is assumed that with the help of drones, the United States will be able to track the movements of militants from the terrorist groups “Islamic State” (an organization whose activities are prohibited in the Russian Federation) and Al-Qaeda (an organization whose activities are prohibited in the Russian Federation). The Americans will transmit this information to the local military. As reported by IA Regnum, earlier German political scientist Alexander Rahr, commenting on the events surrounding the rebellion in Niger, said that the United States wants to use Africa in its own interests. According to him, for the Americans, Africa is another tool for ensuring world domination.
