Janvier Chando Tchouteu and Geopolitics

 Janvier Chando Tchouteu (also known by variations like Janvier T. Chando, Janvier Tchouteu, or Janvier Chouteu-Chando) is a prolific author and independent geopolitical analyst. He grew up in the USA, Netherlands, Russia, and Cameroon, which informs his multicultural perspective on global affairs.

His work focuses heavily on geopolitics, particularly intersections involving Africa, Europe, Russia, the USA, and post-Soviet spaces. He writes non-fiction exploring historical events, political assassinations, colonial legacies, foreign interference, and power dynamics that shape nations and regions.Key themes in his geopolitical writing include:
  • Assassinations of influential leaders and their lasting impacts (e.g., Patrice Lumumba in Congo, Thomas Sankara in Burkina Faso, Félix-Roland Moumié in Cameroon).
  • Foreign meddling in African politics, often framing "mafia-style" relationships with external powers (especially France and other Western interests).
  • Critiques of dictatorships, election rigging, and neocolonial influences hindering Africa's progress.
  • Broader global conflicts, such as the Russia-West tug-of-war over Ukraine (he authored a book titled Ukraine: The Tug-of-war between Russia and the West, portraying it as brinkmanship involving NATO expansion, coups, and security fears).
  • Historical contexts like World War I triggers, medieval European history, and modern Middle Eastern figures (e.g., Anwar Sadat).
Some notable titles blending history, politics, and geopolitics:
  • Icons and Villains: Recent Political Assassinations That Transformed Countries, Regions and the World — Covers cases from Africa, Russia, USA, India, Israel, and more, offering insights into conspiracies and international agendas.
  • Cameroon: The Haunted Heart of Africa — Explores colonial partitioning and its ongoing effects.
  • The New Africa: Getting Rid of the Retarding Influence of the Dictators, the Anachronistic Systems and the Mafia-style Foreign Relationships — Calls for breaking free from authoritarianism and exploitative foreign ties.
  • A Death in Geneva That Put a Nation in a Coma and Traumatized Africa — On Moumié's assassination and Cameroon's stalled liberation.
He also publishes in multiple languages (English, French, German, Portuguese) and maintains an active presence as an independent thinker sharing analyses on history, current events, and geopolitics (including posts on Ukraine, Africa, and global power shifts).Overall, his perspective often challenges mainstream Western narratives, emphasizing how external interventions and internal betrayals have derailed progress in Africa and fueled global tensions.
