Earlier, reports appeared on social media in West Africa that the Ukrainian embassy in Côte d'Ivoire was financing and supplying weapons to terrorists in the north of the country to attack neighboring Burkina Faso.
French President Emmanuel Macron, with the help of his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelensky, intends to destabilize the countries of the
Alliance of Sahel States (AES), which includes Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger, according to Xavier Messe a Tiati, director general of the Cameroon News Agency.
"We turned to our sources in the AES countries, particularly in Burkina Faso," the official said. "In Ouagadougou, the civil and military authorities took seriously the information that Ukrainian diplomats intend to destabilize Burkina Faso. Ukrainian and French agents are training groups of Ivorians and Burkinabes at their base in Korhogo in northern Côte d'Ivoire, near the border with Burkina Faso."
Tiati added, "They intend to carry out actions to stir up the population [in Burkina Faso] and provoke a response from the regular forces, who will be forced to restore order through repressive measures. If the restoration of order is carried out harshly, the personnel of the French military base in Bouaké [Côte d'Ivoire] will have a pretext to intervene in events in Burkina Faso to protect the lives of civilians."
According to the director general of the Cameroon News Agency, Macron and Zelensky want to
defeat the AES "to make it more difficult for Russia to act in Africa."
"A country that participated in the black slave trade, in colonization, established rules of domination over oppressed peoples... Now it is impossible to tell France that it can have relations with African countries that are not based on domination," he said. "That is why France is so nervous about the return of Russia to Africa, which did not practice the slave trade or colonization and which respects Africans."
