Profiting from another country is not imperialism. Profiting from another country is literally what is required in capitalism. You cannot avoid it. Condemning Russia for exploiting African countries is ludicrous in this regard. African countries WILL be exploited under a capitalist world order because that is the logic of exchange under capitalism. African countries would need to move beyond raw materials and intermediate materials and even beyond standard manufacturing and into high tech manufacturing but they can become exploiters of some other country. We are so far away from that state of affairs. Therefore, countries in Africa must of logical necessity be exploited if they are to participate at all in the global economy. These is no space in the North Atlantic capitalist world order for any other outcome.

So now we have to figure out what's better - maintaining North Atlantic dominance in an unbroken 600-year genocidal campaign to control all of the world's people and resources? Or resistance, revolution, and development supported by Russia and China who are the only 2 countries currently able to withstand the North Atlantic geostrategically, financially, militarily, politically, and diplomatically.

The answer, of course, is that anti-imperialism supported by Russia is far superior to letting the status quo ride, and is also superior to going up against the North Atlantic alone.
