Define Theft. Ukrainian Propanganda is going into over drive. I saw a news report of Zelenski doing a selfie in the hospital with a patient. That generated a news story in the British press.
"It's not imperialism when Russia does it!" :damn:

It could be but how much Gold does Sudan have? The oil is way more valuable and that's locked up by the Chinese. But to think that Russia could finance a war off of "stolen"Gold is ridiculous. They're spending several millions of dollars a day fighting this war some gold ain't gonna cut it.

I have no dog in the fight between Slavs, but this is the main reason I hope Russia collapses soon and brutally as possible. Putin has his own PMC, the Wagner Group in Mali, Mozambique, CAR and the Sudan. Any time he wants to cause problems in Europe he can essentially kick start a refugee crisis on a whim. It's why I hope that cancer kills that cracker slowly as possible.

Sudan is the 3rd highest gold producer in Africa. It's right in the article.They're also not "financing the war" with the gold. They're using it to stave off sanctions.

More J Edgar Hoover approved reports. Nothing is being plundered

In Sudan, Prigozhin's main vehicle is a US-sanctioned company called Meroe Gold -- a subsidiary of Prigozhin owned M-invest -- which extracts gold while providing weapons and training to the country's army and paramilitaries, according to invoices seen by CNN.“plunder”
idk how to make it not,,,quotey
It’s as simple as-we’re trying to apply enough economic pressure to spur regime change or complete capitulation in Russia. Russia cannot get gold or engage with almost all developed economies of the world. Sudan lacks the infrastructure to extract these resources efficiently along with weird power dynamics. Russians extract gold and take it back to Russia and help arm Sudan with their cheap but effective weapons systems but more importantly, training. This will lead to a more stable Sudan (darfur) than the one we made fake humanitarian aid campaigns for in the 2000’s.



It certainly isn’t a fair exchange but does extend benefits to Sudan that they wouldn’t otherwise have plus it undermines the global american capitalist order which needs to be any Black revolutionary’s #1 goal at all times.

People see Africans as weak and our leaders and sellouts.
That's why they do this.
That's why they steal resource and exploit the people cause we don't fight back against these fukking thieving ass crackers.
Hell...Africans still see white crackers like Jesus/Caesar Borgia so what can yall really do?

Start seeing whites like the true enemies to planet earth they are.

African yes

Black... you go ask them how they identify. I said what they are and claim mostly in Sudan... Arab.

they don't see themselves as "we" or "us"

Most of the tribes in South Sudan would though...

It really depends who you talk to. Some young Sudanese are leaving behind Arab chauvinism. I know because I used to interact with quite a few. I even know one who hates Arabs and boasts of her Nubian heritage.
