US condemns soldiers apparent ouster of Guinea's president
[JPost] The United States condemned events on Sunday in the Guinean capital Conakry, where special forces soldiers appeared to oust the country's long-serving president.

In a statement, the US State Department said violence and any extra-constitutional measures would only erode Guinea's prospects for peace, stability and prosperity.

"The United States condemns today's events in Conakry," the statement said. "These actions could limit the ability of the United States and Guinea's other international partners to support the country as it navigates a path toward national unity and a brighter future for the Guinean people."

#4 Timing, timing, timing.
Not too long ago Rantburg was talking about Turkey starting relations with Ghana. There is a longstanding relationship with Ivory Coast. Turk Mercs departed Libya for parts unknown, Algeria and Morocco are butting heads with the Islamists about to be voted out.

#5 One wonders if Turkey had a hand in the ouster.
