TheAltWorld NATO Expands Into Africa As US Bullies the Continent Over Ukraine, w/ Vijay Prashad
NATO expansion might have provoked the war in Ukraine, but surrounding Russia isn’t the organization’s only pursuit. NATO participated in the US “war on terror” in Afghanistan, NATO destroyed Libya and today NATO is expanding into Africa.
