I know he’s called himself a Sankarist, but is he a socialist? His actions would seem to align with what a socialist would do in his position. He recently talked about a “progressive people’s revolution”, if that means anything.

    That doesn’t make the question irrelevant.

    Sorry if I sound dismissive. I did not intend to (do you find me like that, jack, before and after?)

    We all support AES, but we want to understand more what its objectives and proposed long-term course are.

    That’s the thing. We don’t know exactly.

    Cuba’s revolutionary gov’t and the leader did not mention anything about its explicit path from Jan. 1, 1959 to April 16th 1961, when Castro proclaimed it socialist explicitly.

    Meanwhile, Traore’s government, let alone him, despite similar anti-colonial and pro-sovereignty rhetoric, does not have that defining moment YET in which he claims it as socialist.

    Unless the time comes when it comes straight from the horse’s mouth, I can’t make any judgements of whether he’s socialist or not publicly.
