Morocco wants to join the winning side
Morocco wants to join the winning side
More and more African nations will start to support Ukraine more openly as Russia is inflicting a food crisis on most of the poor nations of the world through this pointless war.
In the rich North, we focus only on energy costs that Russia has caused to rise but in Africa and other continents, the struggle to feed the population because of Russia is more of a priority.
Morocco has been a US ally since the beginning. This is not news.
It is ironic given their own actions in Western Sahara though.

updateI am not even sure Morocco is all that hot on stepping into the Ukrainian cauldron. More likely it is because Morocco had some stocks of Soviet style weapons that the US has been scouring the world for to send to Ukraine
And you are right, there are no demons or villains. Kind of ironic that Morocco that grabbed Western Sahara can be in a position to object to same grab by Russia

Muscovy is scouring the world for old Soviet weaponry as wellIt's as Juin stated early in December - scouring the world for old Soviet weaponry to help / replace parts etc is a priority now as the Ukrainians are used to working with / maintaining old Soviet equipment. I remember seeing really old MiGs in Zambia once - there's a lot of old equipment that can be reused if sent to Ukraine.

we all support Ukrainesupports Ukraine.
Hadn't realised that, maybe they could ask Ukraine if they could donate some of the scrap metal the Russians have left lying around Ukraine's fields.
