Russia is offering African governments a “regime survival package” in exchange for access to valuable natural resources, according to internal documents seen by the BBC.

This involves changing mining laws in West Africa to displace Western companies.

After a failed coup, Russia has taken control of the Wagner mercenary group’s operations in Africa.

They are now known as the “Expeditionary Corps” and are led by a figure accused of the attempted murder of Sergei Skripal.

The group is securing partnerships with African governments by offering security assistance in exchange for mineral rights. They are also targeting strategic minerals like uranium.

This shift in strategy reflects Russia’s more overt approach to global influence.

While it may not have an immediate impact, it poses a serious long-term threat to global stability.

This information is based on a report by the BBC.
