I doubt it’s that simple. Imagine we had a United States of Africa now that backed Russia. Would the world be more or less stable? I have no idea except that Libya would be more stable.

Very clearly the answer is that the world would be more stable, I don’t see how that’s really disputable? It would be worse for NATO, certainly, but a truly United Africa would be absolutely astounding. I don’t think you realise just how much that would change the world

That would be a lot of people and natural resources under one roof. There's already talks to unite east Africa
