Les dessous de la présence militaire russe en Afrique

March 2023
Abdelhak Bassou & Imane Lahrich

Dans ce nouvel épisode, Imane Lahrich accueille Abdelhak Bassou pour discuter des dessous de la présence militaire russe en Afrique.

Dans ce sens, que nous apprend la guerre en Ukraine sur la puissance militaire russe et sa présence en Afrique ? Et quelles sont les hypothèses et les scénarios pour les relations militaires russo-africaines après la guerre en Ukraine ?
