this is the only part that surprises me, how much money was this
I don’t know. All I know is that the French didn’t have the money to hold onto their colonies after WW2 but the US didn’t want to do the dirty work themselves so they got the French to do it in Algeria and Vietnam. To quote an old Star Trek game: “It didn’t work.”
