Yeah they're there it seems. But it will be interesting to see how Russia will respond if an actual war breaks out where the West will be involved. Will they help the countries that supported them, or will they let them be? Because if Russia will not respond, it might break support among African nations who are trying to break with the Western bloc. And if Russia does respond, they will have to focus on two different battlefields.

The US will also have to focus on two battlefields at the same time and I see Russia being in a better position.
Why would Russia be in a better position? Local support?
