The Global South is Rising — and Africa is Taking Control of Its Future, Geopolitical Analyst Says
For 75 years, global power has been controlled by a few. But now, the Global South is taking destiny into its own hands, Souleymane Coulibaly, head of Mali's delegation to Russia's Global Digital Forum, told Sputnik Africa.
"There is a game-changing, the paradigms are changing, […] now everybody can, from your own place, develop whatever you dare," the analyst noted.
Mali sees its partnership with Russia as more than strategic — it’s symbolic.
Russia never colonized Africa but supported African independence movements, he added.
