So if both african countries and one of the large most power country actively destabilize a nation. Why would smaller and less powerful nations be the primary cause instead of the big one? but yeah, the one does not rule out the other
I mean, look at Ethiopia. Forget Western powers, Ethiopia has never been successfully invaded by any foreign power. Despite this, it is one of the poorest countries on the planet today.
It seems to be the prevailing theory that any misfortune befalling these countries is due primarily to the west.
These countries would be thriving without western interference is the claim.
