Construction of an LNG plant in Mozambique has resumed thanks to the Rwandan army.

A landmark event, significant not only by the standards of the country itself, has occurred in one of the world's poorest countries in Southeast Africa. In the Republic of Mozambique, construction of a liquefied natural gas plant has resumed five years after it was suspended. Its cost is estimated at $20 billion.

Construction of the Rovuma LNG plant, led by the French company Total Energies and other European partners, was suspended in 2021 following an attack by Islamist militants. Throughout this time, they controlled the area in the northern province of Cabo Delgado where the construction site is located.

With a design capacity of 13 million tonnes of LNG per year, Rovuma LNG is expected to transform Mozambique into a major gas exporter and transform the country's economy once production begins in 2029. The plant was originally scheduled to begin operations in 2024.

Europe, which needs gas suppliers other than Russia and the United States, is very interested in LNG from Mozambique. However, it wasn't European armies that helped expel Islamists from the north of the country, but Rwanda, which doesn't even border Mozambique.

Rwanda has deployed approximately 5000 troops to Cabo Delgado. Of these, approximately 3000 are fully dedicated to ensuring the security of the gas project and nearby communities. Construction crews have also arrived in Mozambique from Rwanda.

Rwanda is recognized as one of the safest countries on the continent and is distinguished by its professional army, completely loyal to its political leadership. Since 2000, Paul Kagame has held the presidency of Rwanda uninterrupted, a rarity in Africa. Kigali uses the army as a political and economic tool, stabilizing the much larger and resource-rich Mozambique.

It feels like "our musicians" are playing the violins quietly there... Africa has been surprising us in recent years, driving out the colonizers with wet rags... Keep it up!

[Pereira]

The article says nothing about musicians. They're being driven out of North Africa, and in Russia, they're being finished off.
The most glorious page of our military history has been turned.

[Essex62]

Nobody liked Bat'ka Makhno either. Although both sides used him.

[Pereira]

Everything was not like that. But that's a different story.

[Essex62]

How so? Did you fight alongside the Red Army? Did you fight against it too?

[Pereira]

It's impossible to cover this in a post. And there's a wealth of literature online.
But to put it briefly, in 19 he entered into an alliance with the Red Army.
But he didn’t collaborate with the whites, because he was an anarchist.
That is, both sides could not use it.

[Essex62]

The Red Army had plenty of enemies besides the White Guard. By launching a military campaign against them, Batka automatically found himself on that side. The logic of all civil wars: whoever is not with us is against us.

[Pereira]

Until '19 he was on his own. The third force.
Batka wasn't a machine gun. He signed an official agreement with the Red Army in February 18.

[Essex62]

It doesn't matter. There are no winners in the State Duma, but only one who considers himself one should remain. If he fought with the CA, that means he's on that side, or one of the sides. What difference does it make?

[Pereira]

Strictly speaking, it was not he who fought the KA, but the KA who fought him.

[Essex62]

How could it be? Who would allow a self-sufficient peasant rabble? And yet, Batka fought very hard.

[Pereira]

He fought. But not for very long. He had to grease his heels.

[Essex62]

Of course. The Red Army proved too much for anyone.

[Pereira]

If, of course, we forget about the Poles.

[Essex62]

And what about the Poles? Ultimately, the Red Army is in Poland, and where are those victorious Zolnierz?

[Pereira]

The Red Army re-entered Poland 20 years later.
And the victorious Zholnezhians are preparing in full swing to capture Kaliningrad.

[Essex62]

No, they're not preparing, they're just dreaming. The swirling whirlpool is a nightmare, transforming into reality. First, we need to create a situation from within and turn off our loaf of bread. But how?

[Pereira]

Counting on a coup by the 5th and 6th columns due to the threat to foreign assets.

[Essex62]

There are no idiots in power. Anyone. To give up such a trump card and lose the food supply, because strangers will take it all for themselves, no one will take it. Even a drunkard wouldn't have thought of such a thing, clinging to a loaf of bread with his teeth.

[nikolaki6890]

Yes, but he then fought against the Red Army...

[Saburov_Alexander53]

Rwanda has deployed approximately 5000 troops, of which approximately 3000 are fully dedicated to ensuring the security of the gas project.

I still don't understand from this article: is the Rwandan army in Mozambique protecting French interests and those of all of Europe? Or will Mozambique now manage this LNG plant without the French?
And recently, they've somehow stopped mentioning China's presence in Africa... Although just a few years ago, our media almost completely "gave" Africa to the Chinese, describing how cleverly they replaced all the previous colonizers there, along with our builders of socialism.
And if the French support Islamists in Mali, Niger, and Burkina Faso, trying to regain power in those countries, then logically we should support Islamists in Mozambique and prevent the French from completing this LNG plant.

[Essex62]

We don't owe anything to anyone. We've ceased to be an Empire. We were pushed out, and pushed out. The Towers have no complaints.

Well, whoever is there, and they seem to be doing it!! I don't care who's in the Kremlin, but I want Russia and Russians to be feared and respected. Otherwise, let's have a blast!! From everything we have, heh heh.

THEY EVEN AWARDED HIM AN ORDER!! And then they wiped out the pure Ukrainian people. Go ahead, fight for your own farmsteads!!!

[Evgeny64]

They are being driven out of North Africa.

Somehow, it doesn't quite jibe with reality... Sorry, but even in Mali, they're still attacking the "Azawad shepherds" in droves, with a much smaller force. There are casualties, but they're few and far between. And the local monuments speak for themselves.
The local Azawads piss themselves at the mere mention of musicians, even when they surround them and the local army flees, they try to negotiate and give them the opportunity to leave in peace, just to avoid getting involved, they know they will die but will not give up their positions.

[Pereira]

Yes, they do it because they know how. But they don't fit into Grandpa Mu-Mu's structure. Therefore, actual effectiveness doesn't matter. What matters is Mu-Mu's beautiful report to the old man.
By the way, after the heroes were imprisoned in the Ministry of Defense, is there at least one hero left in the country?

[Normann]

And you don’t know, he has a lot of medals and orders, and his grandfather was even the main one over those who cut off the heads of Russian conscripts, and now they are heroes.

[Pereira]

His grandfather was even the one in charge of those who cut off the heads of Russian conscripts.

What were conscripts like during the First World War? And in Kazan, no less?

I wrote that musicians quietly play the violin in Africa and not only...!!!
In Bakhmut, they showed how they can and how the "Wagner" scream works. The mercenaries and hooooooolers scattered, and the rest shot back and blew themselves up. They didn't take any prisoners! A quick control shot and everything was clear...
They move on!!

[Pereira]

That's the problem. The violin has fallen silent. The enemies couldn't cope with Wagner. Our own did.

They went into quiet...The system continues!!!
We checked... It works, but it's dangerous!!
Kornilovshchina, which they tried to use in the dark

Imagine that Kornilov went to save Kerensky from the corrupt Provisional Government, and Kerensky betrayed him and killed him.
And then I had to run in a woman's dress

What are you hinting at? There was also the "Wild Division!" They were trained to cut down everyone with sabers... Before they got there, they cut down their commanders with daggers and returned... And then Kerensky fled in a tent. Heh heh.

[Pereira]

Kerensky fled in a dress because there was no one to protect him.

Based on their experience and tactics, the entire military doctrine is now being modernized, and not only in Russia!!

[Pereira]

The most important thing about Wagner isn't tactics. What matters is organization, speed of decision-making, and the way he treats people.
It was a prototype of the army of the future. But the Stripes will bury it all; it's all beyond their comprehension. They'll emasculate it all and forget it. I don't trust them.

Mozambique didn't know Islamists until oil/gas was discovered there...

[Sergey Tkach]

"According to Transparency International, the level of corruption in Rwanda is the lowest in East Africa" ​​and the annual GDP growth is 6...10%.

[Grandfather Borg]

I had the chance to visit Mozambique back in Soviet times. We had all sorts of specialists there (fishermen, sailors, and geologists)! And, of course, the military and security forces of Mozambique successfully repelled attacks by terrorists from South Africa.
And during the Gorbachev-Yeltsin era all aid ceased (

[Normann]

At that time, everything stopped...

[Pimply]

What's so rare about a president in Africa sitting for a quarter of a century?
