    Russian instructors aim to help local troops bring lasting peace

    " After a decade of fighting warlords and lawlessness, the Central African Republic is building up a capable military to achieve long-desired peace – and Russian instructors, exclusively interviewed by RT, are key to that mission.
    A bloody civil war has been raging in the Central African Republic (CAR) since 2012. The country, which gained independence from France in 1960, has had a tumultuous history of various factions seeking to usurp power, and the violence in the resource-rich nation has dragged on well into the 21st century. When the CAR’s president, Faustin-Archange Touadera, requested Moscow’s assistance in 2018, his government had control over just a small part of the country’s territory, while the rest was claimed by warlords and their gangs.
    With the approval of the UN Security Council, Moscow began sending light weapons and instructors to train the army. The outside backing was a game changer, as the authorities in Bangui now say that 90% of the country answers to them."......https://www.rt.com/russia/525006-car...n-instructors/

    Not a fan of RT, it reminds me of our own propaganda sites such as OAN and Newsmax. Some history and Russian objectives from reliable sites below.

    One relevant point from the RUSI link is that the unrest was unabated under French influence.....so things have substantially improved since the Russian moved in .

    Russia has a strict policy of non-interferrence in other country's political affairs . The CAR is a republic....and Russia is there to promote peace and stop the ongoing civil war at the request of the CAR government.....which they have pretty much succeeded in doing. Only a fool who prefers to see civil war continue would interpret it any other way. The CAR economy has improved substantially since Russia came in to help stop the war .......are you trying to deny this ?

    Apparently Ukraine isn't on any map you've seen.

    Political intefference in Ukraine was initiated by US CIA , with the maiden coup to install Porishenko and create a government hostile to Russia . Crimeans rejected the US initiated regime change and unified with Russia.......Russia initiated a peace plan for the Donbass civil war , the Minsk Agreement , but the Ukraine government has refused to honor it .
