Can Democracy survive in Africa, and if it does, what will be the future of democracy in Africa in a world that is increasingly characterized by a wave of authoritarianism spearheaded by Vladimir Putin's Russia, Xi-Jinping's China, and their minions? That Russia is the citadel of authoritarianism is evidenced by Russia's unprovoked brutal attack on the independent sovereign nation of Ukraine with an ostensible motive of depriving the citizens of Ukraine of their democratic rights and imposing dictatorship on the good people of Ukraine. If democracy, freedom, and liberty is to survive in any part of Africa, then all African nations should unanimously join the free nations to vehemently condemn Vladimir Putin's unprovoked brutal invasion of Ukraine and the carnage it has wrought on the innocent children, women, and men of the nation. Furthermore, freedom-loving African nations must simultaneously send an unambiguous message to Xi-Jinping, the Communist leader of China, to desist from imposing autocracy on the peace-loving democratic society of Taiwan. For many years African nations have been impoverished and oppressed by puppet regimes in Africa imposed from outside the continent, who did and continue to do the bidding of their foreign masters. African leaders know or must know that Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine is to play a similar high-stakes game of installing a puppet regime that Moscow can easily manipulate to the detriment of the vast majority of Ukrainians. Putin is pursuing a similar pernicious policy in Africa to install puppet regimes and extend his autocratic values in Central Africa, Mali, Burkina Faso, Sudan, Eritrea, Equatorial Guinea, Angola, and others. The future of democracy in Africa hinges in part on Putin exploiting the so-called Russia-Africa Summit to circumvent Africa's march to consolidate democracy and freedom on the continent. Africa's freedom lovers should seek to pressure Vladimir Putin to unilaterally abandon his brutal and merciless invasion of an unprovoked sovereign state of Ukraine or else should refuse to be a party to the so-called Russia-Africa Summit.
