I'm talking countries like, Mali, Burkina Faso, Niger, Chad, Central African Republic. These countries are all landlocked, are pretty minimal in terms of natural resources (I know Mali has gold and salt, Niger has uranium, Burkina Faso has gold, etc) but the transit links are minimal for them to even get the exports out of the country! In addition, alof them have undergone constant political turmoil with numerous coup d'etats and military juntas, and it seems like each new leader is only concerned with getting as rich as possible then living comfortably in exile. So do y'all see a future for them?
