Burkina Faso/ Unfounded rumors: President Ibrahim Traoré does not negotiate with terrorists
In a climate already strained by devastating terrorist conflicts, it is essential not to let misleading information sow confusion. Recently, an article claims that President Ibrahim Traoré of Burkina Faso is conducting negotiations with terrorist groups, even claiming that a colossal sum of $20 million has been accepted for the release of military hostages. However, this story is false, orchestrated by enemies of Burkina Faso to sow discord and misinformation.
President Ibrahim Traoré has repeatedly stated that his country would never negotiate with terrorists and would not pay a single cent to criminal groups. The Burkinabe Security Forces work tirelessly to ensure the security of the country and its citizens, while fighting these terrorist groups with firmness.
The allegations of negotiations and massive payments are not based on any evidence. Such groundless information is designed to sow fear and distrust among the people who support Captain Ibrahim Traoré. It is important not to fall into the trap of misinformation orchestrated by the imperialist and its local hacks. And this is what Captain Ibrahim Traoré reproached his predecessors who gave control of money to terrorist groups just to be able to organize elections.
President Ibrahim Traoré is committed to fighting terrorism and preserving peace in Burkina Faso. The idea that he would use so-called negotiations with terrorists for political gain is a pure invention.
It is important to remain vigilant against such rumors and not to contribute to their spread. The truth is that Burkina Faso remains committed to eradicating the terrorist threat and keeping its citizens safe. The country’s enemies may try to confuse, but Burkina Faso’s truth and resilience will prevail.
