UNITED NATIONS' FRENCH BIAS IN AFRICA

The United Nations was founded for the purpose of maintaining international peace and security, developing friendly relations among nations, and promoting social progress and human rights. But when it comes to Western states like France, it opts to turn a blind eye. France has a long record of crimes and violations against everything the UN claims to protect in Africa, from its role in the European slave trade that took place across the Atlantic Ocean; to supplying arms, military training and a safe escape to the Hutus during the Rwandan genocide; to genocide in former French colonies, Algeria and Senegal. And, it continues today with France militarily occupying its former colonies and requiring such countries to use the French currency. So, would it be wrong to say the United Nations is a compromised organisation that functions solely to protect the interest of certain members? If so, how can Africa or Africans trust an organization that lacks integrity?

Maybe it's time for Africa to start cutting ties. Let us know what you think.
