There is Mali and other places where already doing some stuff there.
Heh, there is little news what's going on in Mali specifically. The Ukrainian war is just a red herring to distract the attention, that's where the main action is happening,
Another idea. Previously I thought France abandons Mali, or even the Malian leadership asked the Russians for help instead, since the French were ineffective. Now maybe it was the French who asked Russia/Wagner to help out and do the dirty deeds - they can't do - done dirt cheap. It could be part of a cooperation between France and Russia, which is the part of the dream of the independent European Empire, another center of power in geopolitics, which isn't USA's client. If Russia and rest of Europe could find the common voice, Europe wouldn't need the US anymore.
Thinking this further, maybe for Europe Putin's Russia is too independent and obstinate, plus deals too closely with unacceptable foreign players like Iran and China. Plugging out this system, and managing to install a softer one might be another strategy, basically playing the US and Putin against each other behind the scenes, just to step forward in the end and get rid of US' leash while globbing Russia in. Lands, lands everywhere for French, Dutch, and German farmers, endless supply of oil and gas and Uranium, wood and water, and god knows what riches, no more dependence on US and dirty Araps.
