Russia's African strategy: a new colonialism? - Break the Fake - TVP WORLD

What is Russia really doing in Africa? On the surface, it looks like trade deals and partnerships – but there's a hidden side that most poeple don't see. Behind closed doors, thousands of lives are affected in ways that are shocking and unexpected.
