i don't think they care that much about France opinion. Otherwise it wouldn't happen in the first place

[BonsuBigWhale]

Does not matter. The population does recognize the couo. Russiawillrecognize them. The other Francophone breakaway countries will recognize them.
France Wil exit the region even if it is through the only language they seem to understand the term a"get out" in.
The language spoken by the Algeriansand VIetnamese.

They don't need to. That's is why they re wanted out in African affairs.

[pavelromanenko]

Doesn't matter if they don't recognize the new leader. If the leadership they recognize isn't in power anymore, they aren't in power anymore.

sanctioning them or blaming russia isn't going to work. the truth is the people and the new leaders blame you and my country for its problems. sanctions will only prove their point . sorry for the truth.
