#ibrahimtraoré #burkinafaso #france Western media often highlights Captain Traore's efforts in driving out French forces and his pledge to combat terrorism in Burkina Faso. Yet, despite these efforts, the threat of insecurity stemming from jihadists persists, resulting in continued loss of lives and displacement of civilians from their homes. Critics argue that Western media portrays Traore's government negatively, potentially influenced by Western powers, to undermine local and public support for his leadership. This tactic, they claim, is a recurrent strategy employed by the West to discredit leaders who don't align with their agenda. Although Captain Traore hasn't completely eradicated insecurity in Burkina Faso, supporters argue that he has achieved more in two years than the French did during their tenure in combating terrorism in the country. There is optimism that given more time, Traore's administration could successfully address terrorism and insecurity not only in Burkina Faso but also across the Sahel region. In today's video, we'll explore some of the tactics employed by the Burkinabe military and their successes in this ongoing battle. One significant aspect of Traore's strategy in combating insecurity is his focus on bolstering the Burkinabe military. This includes seeking defense partnerships with countries like Russia, Rwanda, Mali, and Niger. #senegal FOOTAGE licensed through Storyblocks
