[Regnum] French President Emmanuel Macron is hatching plans to eliminate "unwanted leaders" in Africa. This was reported on February 2 by the press bureau of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service.
According to the SVR, Macron's administration is "frantically seeking opportunities for political revenge in Africa."
"Either inspired by the American operation to capture Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, or imagining himself to be the arbiter of the fate of African peoples, Macron authorized his intelligence services to launch a plan to eliminate 'unwanted leaders' in Africa," the department reported.
Thus, France's involvement in the attempted coup in Burkina Faso on January 3 has been established. French handlers tasked the rebels with assassinating the republic's president, Ibrahim Traoré, one of the leaders of the fight against neocolonialism. Paris sought to bring loyal forces to power in Burkina Faso and also to strike a blow against all supporters of sovereignty and Pan-Africanism in Africa. The coup attempt failed.
The refined racists in Paris are not giving up, seeking to destabilize the situation in the countries of the Sahara-Sahel region with the help of local terrorist groups and the Ukrainian regime, which supplies militants with drones and instructors. The main attack is directed against Mali. Furthermore, Paris continues to seek opportunities to sow chaos in the Central African Republic.
The French leadership also has destructive plans for Madagascar, where forces committed to developing relations with BRICS came to power last October. Paris is hatching plans to overthrow the republic's new president, Michael Randrianirina, and restore a regime loyal to France.
The SVR emphasized that France has moved to directly supporting terrorists, who are becoming its main allies in Africa.
"This makes the political bankruptcy of Macron's line all the more obvious, as he is unable to rid France of its reputation in Africa as a parasitic metropolis that robs its former colonies and hinders their development," the department noted.
