Commentary The declining prestige and influence of Western powers have been occurring in direct proportion to the abandonment of Western theories of “liberal democracy” by most states on the African continent. The latest example was the implosion of stability in the West African state of Sierra Leone following its June 24 presidential election debacle. The…

Nigeria’s Election of Bola Tinubu: Military Coups Have Been Better Received
Commentary Nigeria’s 2023 presidential election statistically and overwhelmingly failed to represent the majority of Nigerian citizens—let alone voters—and instead, delivered a new All-Progressives Alliance President in Bola Ahmed Tinubu. The incoming President, who showed numerous examples during the campaign that he was severely health-challenged, is now expected to deliver four more years of the policies…
Turkey’s Implosion and Isolation From the West
Commentary Turkey’s strategic collapse had, by early 2023, become unavoidable; it had already begun.
