Would it bother other African countries if China brought there troop total up to 10,000? There are no big players left in Africa what if, say in five or eight years from now those totals topped off at 30,000 troops? Mix in a squadron or two of fighters plus tankers & AWACS, then a small group of naval ships of course to protect the tankers traffic, nice touch. At what point do warning lights go off, it just makes me think of the future a little.
Would France or other European countries support Chad if Chad and Sudan started a shooting war? I think central (east and west coast) and parts northern Africa has a chance of being the next Middle East not on the same scale but close in ways. |
