Burkina Faso: Certain French media, imperialist propaganda tools against the Burkinabe Army and the AES
Since the withdrawal of French troops from Burkina Faso, which allowed the Burkinabe army to pursue terrorists to their last strongholds, a new form of imperialist offensive has emerged.
French media, longstanding allies of imperialist forces, have embarked on a smear campaign aimed at discrediting the Burkinabe military and the Sahel Alliance (AES) in the eyes of the public.
A recent and egregious example of this insidious strategy is the article published by Radio France Internationale (RFI), titled “New Videos of Cannibal Soldiers in Mali and Burkina.”
This sensationalist and unfounded headline clearly seeks to undermine the credibility and honor of the combat forces involved.
However, the reality on the ground is quite different. Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger are engaged in a relentless battle against terrorism.
In their retreat, terrorists have frequently used disguises, including military uniforms, to carry out atrocities, aiming to create confusion and tarnish the image of the genuine armed forces.
The crucial question to ask is why would the Burkinabe army, which is steadfastly defending its people against terrorism, turn against the very citizens it aims to protect?
The answer is clear to anyone who observes the situation objectively: this is a blatant manipulation intended to advance a hidden imperialist agenda.
The people of Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger must remain vigilant against these destabilizing attempts by foreign media.
It is essential to support the armed forces and denounce these smear campaigns orchestrated by foreign interests that do not want to see the region free from terrorism and imperialism.
