  1. Почему американцы преклонили колени перед афроамериканцами , в счет унижения африканцев и работорговли, почему Англия и Франция не преклонили колени ? Почему Испания не преклонила колени ,двойные стандарты ? Или это что то другое ? Англия , Испания и Франция на протяжении 6 веков грабила Африку и Америку , может настало время вернуть награбленное с % или это снова ,что то другое , Баррель не понимает , что именно дочь русского князя научила Европу мыться ,но это опять другое.

  2. The government of Ghana has no hand this but rather the Asante Kingdom. I’m sure say them take some money. Why someone go loan something wey them stole from you to you. This is modern fraud.

  3. Probably the artifacts are coming alive in the night like in the movie wrecking havoc, that they are tightly keeping under wraps and they came up with this very lame sorry of excuse- loan back -anything can happenoooo!!!. The artefacts are doing some strange ceremonial chants and dance! 😂😂next it will be WAR chants!🫡✊✊

  4. How can it be possible king Charles I think u ar out of sense. What is the meaning of theif or stealing u ar know as theif now base on ur statement. If u will return it return the item without no fuckin loan as u say no way for that agreement also no one was born as king but true society no begins for that .think towise now the hole world knows that u ar theif, or did Ghana soldiers theif Britain 🇬🇧 gold or because of ur power man ur theif

  5. Let me beautifully craft the reason for this transaction, living in the western world one thing I have known is the white man does things for the reason of money, listen they are bringing this here to raise money from tourism for themselves. The UK is now broke, they need to raise money and this is part of it.

  6. See what the politicians are doing to the rest of gold in Ghana. So if they bring these gold, what would be the future? They did protect your gold for you and did not turn it out. They only thing they're messing up is the loan. My point is the return of these gold would not even build a stadium in Ghana. It would end up in someone's pocket.

  7. The Ashantihene must not return these stolen items back to the British government by making so much money 💰 display these artifacts of ancient Ashanti history of massive gold regalia’s period.????).😂😂😢😮😅😮😢.????.

  8. The British looted our brothers into submission into 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 and sold them into America 🇺🇸and islands in the 🇺🇸 America 🇺🇸 as indentured servants slaves sold as peoples stolen by the British government resulting in pure imperialism and pure evil 👿 period.????.😂😢😮😅😮😢.????.

  9. Even some Africa continent are even proud to been colonized . Colonialism means crimes . It's time for African's countries should start manufacturing military weapons likes nuclear weapons just to secure the next generation in case any attempt again by the same people whom might attempt to recolonize again . Democracy that was imposed on Africans continues is fraudster strategy to continues looting Africa continent .

  10. The audacity of a thief to loan back to the rightful owners items they stole, what is wrong with these Europeans, they think natural law does not apply to them, the caucasity!.

  11. So i just came back to this video to expand the conversation. I think this agreement is between museum to museum not government to government. So as they said in the article, the government of Ghana didnt agree to the terms so therefore the British museum reached out to the Ashanti Kingdom not the British government. And they further explained that they have returned jewels to other countries permanently before so this is actually a step in the right direction.
