IS Geopolitics: Africa Update w/ Brad Pearce

About this episode

Brad Pearce joins me on IS Geopolitics. We discuss The United States Military being forced out of Niger and most of the Sahel and the crucial $100 million dollar military drone base being taken by Russian forces. This follows last year's American funded coup. 

This area of the world is key for American foreign policy and is one of many areas in the Sahel and broader Africa that has seen recent turmoil.
