[Regnum] The authorities of Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger have created a joint force to combat terrorist groups in the African Sahel region, radio station RFI reported on March 6.
Representatives of the countries announced this decision at a meeting of the Council of Chiefs of Staff of the countries that are members of the Alliance of Sahel States (ASS) in Niamey (Niger). The Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces of this country, General Moussa Salau Barmu, noted that the joint forces will begin to operate in the near future.
As Regnum reported, on September 16, 2023, Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger announced the creation of the Alliance of Sahel States. This association appeared to organize collective security in the region.
At the end of January, all three countries jointly decided to withdraw from the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) as quickly as possible. The authorities of Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger explained this step by saying that the organization is allegedly under the influence of foreign powers.
In addition, they believe that ECOWAS has become a threat to the countries belonging to this economic association.
