Why Are So Many Coups Happening in West Africa?

Описание: Is West Africa the world’s next war zone? In this gripping video, we uncover the rise of the "Coup Belt"—a corridor of military rule stretching across the Sahel, where instability, corruption, and extremist threats are colliding to reshape the region. From Mali to Niger, a regional domino effect has transformed fragile democracies into military strongholds, fueling a global security crisis with devastating human costs.

Discover how decades of failed governance, extremist expansion, and foreign interference—from the collapse of Libya to the rise of Russian influence—have created a powder keg of unrest. With jihadist groups exploiting power vacuums and great powers like Russia and the West vying for control, the stakes have never been higher. This is more than just a regional conflict; it’s a battle for resources, stability, and the soul of a continent.

What does this mean for global security and regional stability? Will diplomacy or military force define the future of the Sahel? Watch now to explore the geopolitical fault lines, the human catastrophe unfolding, and the far-reaching consequences of this crisis.
