watch the Wide Maya visit to Burkina Faso. these cars have been out for a few months now. they also have built state owned(?) tomato processing plants to start export finished goods rather than raw goods. the government has also engaged in a massive infrastructure (paved roads) campaign.

Yes, Burkina Faso is coming along at a good clip. And the West doesn't like being told "No", especially wrt gold. Traoré has a price on his head, and I hope he can stay safe. I also hope to see more African states join the alliance.

The biggest threat beyond an intl conspiracy to onetap him is the ISIS insurgency that spans half the country. These projects will give the Burkinabe people the political and economic will to resist Daesh, though.
