For Chad, joining the AES "would be one of the best alternatives to address the eternal security concern," Youssouf Adam Abdallah, the Chadian specialist in international security, defense and African cooperation, said, commenting on ways to defeat Boko Haram, in an interview with Sputnik Africa.He noted that the joint military force to fight terrorist groups, created by Niger, Mali, and Burkina Faso in March, could further assist Chad in resolving regional conflicts.Given that Chad is already a member of several other security confederations with Mali, Niger and Burkina Faso, "it is therefore in the interest of Chad and the Chadian people that Chad join the AES Force," the expert stated.At the same time, the analyst advocated Chad's withdrawal from the Multinational Joint Task Force (MNJTF), headquartered in N'Djamena, saying that the organization, made up of Nigeria, Cameroon, Niger, Benin and Chad, "is not effective because the Boko Haram sect is wanted and maintained by other powers in complicity with African states for hidden agendas."

Despite regional anti-terrorist efforts, Boko Haram* continues attacks, particularly in the Lake Chad Basin countries (Cameroon, Chad, Niger and Nigeria), threatening regional stability. The group's targeting of civilians, including through the use of child suicide bombers, remains a major concern for Chad.
For
Chad, joining the AES "would be one of the best alternatives to address the eternal security concern,"
Youssouf Adam Abdallah, the Chadian specialist in international security, defense and African cooperation, said, commenting on ways to defeat Boko Haram, in an interview with
Sputnik Africa.
He noted that the joint military force to fight terrorist groups, created by Niger,
Mali, and Burkina Faso in March, could further assist Chad in resolving regional conflicts.
Given that Chad is already a member of several other
security confederations with Mali, Niger and Burkina Faso, "it is therefore in the interest of Chad and the Chadian people that Chad join the AES Force," the expert stated.
At the same time, the analyst advocated
Chad's withdrawal from the Multinational Joint Task Force (MNJTF), headquartered in N'Djamena, saying that the organization, made up of Nigeria, Cameroon, Niger, Benin and Chad, "is not effective because the Boko Haram sect is wanted and maintained by other powers in complicity with African states for hidden agendas." The expert noted that some members of the MNJTF "are playing a double game."
