Chadian Minister Supports N'Djamena's Membership in AES: 'Great Experience' Worth Studying
"It would be a good thing for Chad to join the Sahel Alliance," Minister of Communications Gassim Cherif Mahamat said in a recent interview.
He asserted that this prospect "must be studied and taken seriously," while specifying that this is his "personal opinion."
For him, the Sahel Alliance offers a space where Africans can come together "apart from ideas from elsewhere." He believes that the union "should be extended to other countries."
Towards total sovereignty
The minister reiterated the Chadian president's desire to assert his sovereignty "on all levels." After the withdrawal of French troops, other areas remain open:
▫the CFA franc,
▫the economy,
▫geostrategy,
▫resource control.
The statement echoes the words of Burkinabe President Ibrahim Traoré, who sees the AES as a "model of unity" for Africa. According to him, African people understand and support this dynamic.
