I meant recent/ongoing, as I imagine the OP did in their caption, but I see how the confusion arose reading the comment in isolation.
That said, the Soviet Union did do their fair share of meddling in post-colonial Africa so it wouldn't shock me, but I can't remember which countries they were involved in off the top of my head so I couldn't say yes or no with any real confidence
