Every single oil rich Arab country has a US military base on it. The West and Isreal benefit more from the oil, than the Arabs. The US uses the Gulf nations as military bases to attack and kill millions of Arabs in Iraq, Libya, Syria, Sudan, Gaza. The US and their allies make billions selling weapons to Saudis, UAE and other gulf nations resulting in a genocide in Yemen. The UAE has 5,000 US military personal stationed in their country. UAE is a puppet of Isreal. When Isreal made an agreement with the UAE, a Holocaust museum was built in UAE, which does not include the fact that the West and Isreal used chemcial weapons on Iraq, Libya, Syria but no one was prosecuted for these war crimes. Isreal which has allied with India, got the UAE to build a large Hindu temple in UAE, even though India has been destroying mosques in India. People need to do more research, instead of making up stereotypes.

UAE is just the trading areas of buying and selling. Africans are still to blame , because their leaders are the most corrupted ones in the world by far far and their Leaders are from AFRICA. SO MOST AFRICANS ARE CORRUPT TOO
They don't own it. Foreign countries steal it. Africans can't do jack sh*t about it either. They don't have the hardware to strongarm the foreign countries into acting better. Let them finally develop some nukes and then unite some of their countries. That will be the game changer. But most foreign countries wouldn't allow that.
Blame the Africans who are facilitating the smuggling. Everyone will take advantage of you if you Africans continue to act like fools and ignorant and not hold your sellout leaders responsible.
@@andrewst9797 Yes, it does. Thieves have been pillaging Africa ever since they came in contact with Africans, stealing so much from Africans that they stole their people too. Without Africa 90% of the World would be 3rd world countries and Africa would be the Richest.

Don't forget to add Indian gold smugglers . Smuggling gold from Africa and refine it in India . Its not Just UAE . Who are the biggest gold buyers in UAE ? definitely Indians !!!
Bruh I was randomly searching about gold smuggling in India and I was amazed by reading details..how much tax evasion they are doing just think..each year 200+ tons of gold on an average is smuggled to india it may be just a tip of iceberg only limited number of smugglers are caught..why the hell is this happening why governments are not taking strict actions this gold smuggling is almost illegal business of lakhs of crores😮 🥲
@@AnonymousAnonymous-dc3jm so why government not making strict laws and regulations and controlling smuggling what I found from various news reports is that only small amount of smugglers are caught while huge amount goes unnoticed through airports
@@Vishnu-dh4wk Yes, you're right, laws are not going to change the fact of supply and demand, people will profit, also gold can be any shape, I've read people brining in gold as parts of a wheelchair plated as normal metal, caught as travelling 3-4 times same month!, another person taking gold dissolved in acid and brining it as floor cleaner, caught because his luggage was full of these bags
In my country Nigeria, illegal gold mines exist in many states. Though illegal, operators of these gold mines pay taxes to terrorists groups and some corrupt politicians in government. That’s the reason illegalities never ends in Africa
In Ghana for instance,we have Gold all over the country, but where is all our GOLD? If some ppl come to Ghana with their planes & leave the country,go outside the country without anyone searching inside their plane, go & come back 24/7,what do you expect? They can carry all our GOLD away.
atleast the Late President Magufuli of Tanzania re-visited the contracts with Barrick Gold corporation and made amendments so the loyalities are split rightfully as a win win between the corporation and the country at large. congrats Magufuli. we thank God for you
The smuggling of gold is prevalent in Northern Nigeria and the elite is in league with them because they don't want a control of their gold reserves but will rather die ,than allow southern Nigeria control their crude oil.
Majority of Gold are smaggled from Sanaag , Puntland Somalia. Near Red Sea mountains by Warsangeli tribe territory. Many United Arab Emirates individuals bought from the locals. And it grows fast out of control stealing tons of Gold daily.
Artisanal mining makes its possible for most households in Africa to earn a living. When large companies get the concessions - they don't feed small holders. They carry the gold and the stones it is mined in. What you call "smuggled" actually pays small holders. Large companies have been in Africa - and they picked the gold, the diamond, the copper, the cobalt - but non of their profits came to households. Blame the emirates but the true story is like the story of the "blind me with an elephant".
We have illegal artisans mining jere in South Africa. The illegal miners have arsenals of weapons and have been at war with our police for several years now. The amount od dead bodies pulled out those mines is crazy.
OK, I understood: now India has beef with UAE.... Not with Western countries which too powerful to criticize, but someone who close by and wealthy enough to make sure poor countries get jealous. Good job!
most of the smuggled gold finds its way to Switzerland and the US through intelligence agencies where the treasuries of these countries then release them into the gold markets to keep the gold prices down when they start to rise supporting their currencies from devaluation.
South Africa and Surrounding Countries.. Food Produce. And Farming is in Huge Trouble.. People don’t want to become Farmers.. they want to be in the cities.
Of course they couldn't care where the gold comes from, walk over dead 😢😢so sad for those African who don't care about their countries, but how long they think this going to lost
Swiss aid telling us Swiss’s biggest competitor in gold export is smuggling. Can we say more about Swiss banks 🏦 instead. There’s probably more African dirty money stashed which could never be claimed by the countries
Good, but who buys UAE gold? Why not mentioning? A boased report to destroy UAE. Who are the smugglers? Weaterners, they build air stripes in the gold fields, flights from Europe and Americas use them
What are you going to do about it ? White men die to improve their countries ,African men only complain, fight intertribal wars and marry plenty wives.
This is not the first time in history that African is being used. Ask the Europeans what they have done and left the people to suffer. The ones doing the cruelty me has learned for the past how to abuse the people in Africa.
This is how Africa's few backdoor dictators funded their local territorial wars. 🌍 -> 🇦🇪 Dubai -> 🌏 P.S. Eerily similar to the Blood Diamond Phenomena, where 💎 of conflict were 🚢 to London and Amsterdam Diamond Exchanges.
The world is built With Africa people blood all the way to the slavery days Africa has lost over 200million people…50 million African died during slavery in the Caribbean farming sugarcane so Europeans can take sugar the same people who have come up with research and now say sugar is poison 50 million Africans had to die for them to realize that sadly!!!
Nope ,it will be the same corrupt govt officials, inefficiency and recklessness. Give it to big corporations with some govt oversight and tax them .Start manufacturing end products in Africa.
What bullocks! The gold produced in artisanal mines could just as easily been sold to any refining agent dealing with the Rand Refinery in South Africa. Something seems really self serving about the authors of the study this story is based on.
From when you became worried about the progress of african nation. May be since 2022 when tones of gold was smuggled to UAE. Where this gold was going before. Why the European compnies are not criticized for robbing african resources and supplying weapons for infighting .why these resources could not make any progress in countries where they have installed regimes of their choice.
