Macron should name the countries in Africa which Russia colonised or still colonizes by backhanded means; which is more than I could say of France - a country which should be a mere blemish on the map if it weren't for its insidious predatory presence in Africa.

This Macaroni fool continues his gaffes that only increases anti French sentiment. He needs to stop his Africa tours as we are sick of his lectures and bogus centrist charm that eroded in his 1st term.
