Burkina Faso condemns French President for insulting all of Africa in recent speech
|
[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] Burkina Faso
 ...The country in west Africa that they put where Upper Volta used to be. Its capital is Oogadooga, or something like that. Its president used to be Blaise Compaoré, who took office in 1987 and was chased out in 2014. Now it's the usual army officer type guy, Captain Ibrahim Traore, running things, who's just doing a bang-up job unless he's already been deposed...
's President Captain Ibrahim Traore accused French President Emmanuel Macron of insulting all Africans in his recent speech, criticizing some countries' ''ingratitude'' towards La Belle France.
The French president criticized alleged French military interventions against armed movements in the Sahel, stating that ingratitude is a disease that cannot be transmitted to humans.
''He insulted all Africans. (—) This is how this gentleman sees Africa, sees Africans. We are not human in his eyes,'' reacted Captain Traore, during a New Year's ceremony.
Relations between La Belle France and Burkina Faso continued to deteriorate since the 36-year-old captain took power by force following a coup in September 2022.
As one of the Sahelian countries, along with Mali and Niger, Burkina Faso ordered the departure of French forces from its soil in 2023.
