Today, the United States Africa Command (AFRICOM) along with French and other North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) troops are operating in numerous states throughout the region. Although there is the reemergence of military coups in several West African states, the mass sentiment from the workers, farmers and youth is decisively anti-imperialist. Sudan was also required to “normalize” relations with the State of Israel as part of the Abraham Accord initiatives aimed at undermining solidarity with the Palestinian national struggle. Sudan and Libya are continuing to reveal the negative impact of neo-colonialism in the 21st century. It is no longer a question of whether African Independent States should pursue a capitalist or non-capitalist path of development.
