Burkina Faso Strengthens Control Over Strategic SectorsPresident Ibrahim Traoré defended a sovereignist vision in an interview on Sunday, marking the third anniversary of his inauguration.Key points made by the president:🟠Burkina Faso is regaining control over key areas like mining, agriculture, and essential public services.🟠Specifically, Burkina Faso purchased two mines for about $164,000, ensuring that profits benefit the population.🟠In agriculture, facing private sector inaction, the state will invest in sectors like rice cultivation to decrease food dependency.🟠Automotive technical inspection, previously privatized, will also return to the state."If the state is not strong, there is no country," Traoré stated.Subscribe to @sputnik_africa Sputnik Africa | X
