Burkina Faso expels Defense Attaché to French Embassy for subversive activities

The Defense Attaché at the French Embassy in Burkina Faso, Emmanuel Pasquier and the staff of the French military office in Ouagadougou, have 14 days to leave Burkina Faso, we learned AIB from a reliable source which also announces the closure of the Burkinabè military mission in Paris, from September 14, 2023.

As a reminder, Burkina Faso expelled French Ambassador Luc Hallade in January 2023 for his lack of “reliability”

A month later, the country obtained the departure of French troops from its territory.

The authorities justified this decision by Burkina Faso’s desire to count on its daughters and sons to fight against terrorism, with the support of sincere partners.
