Burkina Faso Condemns Publication of Video by Ukrainian Army Supporting Terrorists in Mali
11:34 04.08.2024 (Updated: 11:14 05.08.2024) On July 25, a terrorist unit attacked a column of Malian armed forces and Russian military trainers in the Tinzaouatene region of Mali, leaving many dead. In response, the armed forces of Mali and Burkina Faso carried out a series of airstrikes against the militants responsible for the attack, killing many, including a senior terrorist leader.
Burkina Faso "firmly condemns the act of supporting terrorism and is surprised that it is relayed by the Ukrainian embassy in Dakar," the ministry of Foreign Affairs, Regional Cooperation, and Burkinabe Abroad
said in a press release.
"The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Regional Cooperation, and Burkinabe Abroad noted with indignation the publication of a video providing unequivocal support for the terrorist groups responsible for the cowardly and barbaric attack perpetrated between July 25 and 27, 2024, in Tinzaouatene in Northern Mali, against the Malian Armed Forces," the ministry said.
Burkina Faso also reaffirmed its unwavering support for the Malian Armed Forces, which "fight against international terrorism and its accomplices in the Sahel and all of Africa."
Senegal has already summoned the Ukrainian ambassador after the video, accompanied by comments supporting the terrorist attack in Mali, was published on the embassy's Facebook* page.
The foreign ministry underlined in the statement that such a position contradicts the neutrality that Senegal advocates in the Russian-Ukrainian conflict.
"It is inappropriate for the Ukrainian diplomacy based in Dakar to conduct a propaganda campaign against the Malian state or any other African state," the statement read.
