While:
The Middle East - Defcon level 4.
Europe - Defcon Level 2, which is understandable.
Asia -Defcon Level 4.
USA - Defcon Level 4.

FYI: The lower the number, the higher the threat.

Edit: Disregard. Africa is back to Defcon Level 3. I don't know why is showed a Defcon Level 1 momentarily.

They let the cat out of the bag

Notice how both China and Russia have been laying claims on Africa and hawking propaganda there

Yeah, but Africans hate Asians now..only government heads care for them.

Russia could stand a better chance as theyre not Asian and Russia never colonised anywhere in Africa.

How can Africa be on any Def Con level? African countries don't work together like european armies do?

Unless an African country is at war it can't afford to be on a war footing.

But it's well-known that Russia is one of the most anti-Black countries in the world
There is a lot of pro-Russia propaganda or at least pro-Putin propoganda spread around in Africa. I've seen it a few times first hand and you see it online a lot. The "Africa is a graveyard" fake quote is one of them. A true sentiment but Putin never said it.

American 'think tanks', State Dept. officials/diplomats, and military officials constantly harp about the threat to the African continent from China?
Why is that threat significantly different from the threat that America's military footprint poses to African sovereignty (please see the map below):

From the above map, note the following patterns:
1) The US military is bolstering French attempts to maintain economic and military dominance in West Africa. Purportedly, to stop jihadists. However, French forces willingly lend support to regimes in the region to prevent democracy from arising (Chad, Togo etc.)
2) America is aiding old autocrats like Museveni in Uganda, Biya in Cameroon as they destroy the futures of their young people

Truth be told, America is not that different from China, Russia, Turkiye etc.
