Thanks, Karl: very useful background. The tectonic plates are really shifting. The effects in France of the death or weakening of the afro-franc will make more than an interesting spectacle. A taste of what de-dollarisation is going to mean

Thanks, Carl. You put in more than I did regarding CFA Franc (which would probably take several articles to explain fully).

The problem is getting Westerners to care. I put more effort into https://mikehampton.substack.com/p/is-the-cold-war-heating-up-africa than anything else this month yet it will likely be read the least.
