Barbados PM Blasts Beeb’s Colonial Mindset #Shorts #Barbados #China #Africa


Funny how Western narratives can suddenly fall apart. In this clip from back in August, 2021 BBC host Zeinab Badawi tries to lecture the Barbados Prime Minister about the dangers of doing trade with China. The suggestion is the Caribbean nation is swapping one colonial master for another. An argument frequently levelled at African countries…

  1. Very smart and well educated lady. We might be a small nation, no wealth but very intelligent and wise and don't take insults from no one no matter who you are. Barbados is well represented by Mia Mottley.🙏🙏

  2. And this is the reason why countries don't respect Africa us it's because we're easy to manipulate you throw money at it and we roll over every time but see they don't want us to know anything they want to keep us dumb and stupid so they can get over on us wake up people The years of people walking all over Africa killing raping the land is gonna come to an end

  3. Sorry but owning assets in larger countries who can defend themselves, who have large institutions to combat any Chinese intelligence actions, and whose economic collapse would harm China just as much is not the same as buying up smaller, weaker, more susceptible nations like Barbados who can't really fight back against Chinese interference and eventually become beholden to Chinese economic, fiscal and military pressure.

  4. Nuff Respect and I want 10 more Mia Mottleys, definitely need her in Jamaica.🇯🇲.. Barbados 🇧🇧 you did a great thing in voting her in👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

  5. 😂we need a leader like her in Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹 we have a moron dictator running our country who is a geologist 😂who studied weather to understand our constitution and can’t even speak English properly and disingenuously lies every time he speaks and the country is on its death bed 🛌 while small nations like Barbados’s is passing us in development with out natural resources but with a brain 🧠

  6. While the PM makes a very good point, Zeinab Badawi is a very thoughtful journalist and author and very capable to take a point. And in her recent book “An African History of Africa”, she takes exactly that same perspective.

  7. What she said didn’t defeat the reporters point. The reporter was simply warning Chinas influence in the area was growing. Saying your not recognizing this occurred in Europe as well, doesn’t change the aforementioned point.
