The United States is praising Kenya's interest in leading a multinational force in Haiti. But weeks ago, the U.S. openly warned Kenyan police officers against violent abuses. Now 1,000 of those police officers might head to Haiti to take on gang warfare.

The nature of #Russia’s involvement in the rallies, if any, isn’t clear but some #Niger protesters carried Russian flags, signs reading “Down with #France” and supporting Russian President Vladimir Putin. Russian mercenary #WagnerGroup is operating in neighboring #Mali.
