The Voice of America published on 14 February 2023 an article titled "Report: Africa Relations with China, Russia Do Not Imply Support for New World Order" by Mohammed Yusuf.
The article, which draws on the Munich Security Report, an independent annual forum focused on international security, concludes that African countries are dissatisfied with the international system led by the West but are not inclined to replace it with one led by Russia and China, especially following Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
The Munich Security Report published in February 2023 stated on page 23 that "dissatisfaction with the West in key countries in the 'Global South' does not translate into a desire to see China and Russia exercise more influence over the future international order. . . . Alienation from the existing international order and its main guardians does not seem to equate to general support for autocratic revisionism."
