Burkina Faso Joins Chad, Senegal in Criticising Macron’s Comments on Africa | Firstpost Africa

Burkina Faso has joined Chad and Senegal in vociferously criticising French President Emmanuel Macron’s comments last week on Africa. Burkina Faso’s Junta Chief, Ibrahim Traore, said that Macron had insulted all Africans. Traore, who has been in power since 2022, accused Paris of reorganising so that it could remain in the African countries that have driven out the French troops. This was coming days after Macron called some African leaders ungrateful. His comments created a major uproar in Africa, with nations seeing the comments echoing colonial rhetoric. France has faced major setbacks in Africa in recent months. Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso, Chad, Senegal and Ivory Coast have all ousted France from their territory. France has also been at odds with Algeria. So, is this the end of friendly relations between Paris and its former colonies? Watch to know more.
