N'Djamena asserted its pursuit of true independence, urging Macron to address France's own problems instead.
Chad's President Mahamat Idriss Deby Itno on Tuesday accused
Emmanuel Macron of being "in the wrong era" after the French president said African countries "forgot to say thank you" for France's military deployment in the Sahel region to fight an Islamist insurgency.
"I'd like to express my outrage regarding recent remarks by President Macron which border on contempt for Africa and Africans. I think he is in the wrong era," the president said.
Earlier, Senegalese Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko challenged Macron's view of
France's role in African sovereignty, accusing France of destabilization.
