Mali Premier Says France Is Responsible For Terrorism In Mali.

#africanews #france #blackhistory If you search through the media about the origin of violence and insecurity in Mali, the search results always say that the beginning of violence, insecurity, and terrorism in Mali can be traced back to 2012 when some members of the Tuareg tribe of northern Mali decided to take up arms and fight for their supposed Independence. During this period, the Islamist Jihadists were few, and not as rampant as it is today. They only grew after they decided to collaborate with the Tuareg rebels who called themselves the Movement for the National Liberation of Azawad, to fight against the government of Mali. However, this alliance didn’t last even though they were able to conquer some major cities in northern Mali because the Tuareg rebels decided to separate from the jihadists after they discovered that the jihadists had plans to impose sharia laws on the conquered territories which they eventually did. But this is beside the point. The point is based on what has been circulated in the Media about the beginning of insecurity in Mali we have always believed that the violence started when members of the Tuareg tribe who fled from Libya after the fall of Muammar Gaddafi decided to fight for their independence. But, now a prominent leader in Mali has come out to challenge this notion and say that France is responsible for creating the rebel movement and by extension creating the violence in Mali. This Malian leader is none other than the Prime Minister of Mali, Choguel Kokalla Maiga, and in this video, we are going to show you what he said in detail. In an exclusive interview with Anadolu Agency, a media agency, the Prime Minister of Mali, Choguel Kokalla Maiga spoke about a wide range of issues ranging from the security and political situation in Mali, factors that led to the 2020 coup, to bilateral relations with several international actors, including Turkiye. However, our concern is on the first part of his interview. The Prime Minister started by saying that since the coup occurred in 2020, France has opposed the inclusion of any development project concerning Mali on the agenda. He stated that “We noted that every time an ECOWAS summit is announced -- we do not know by what magic -- the French authorities are well informed about it, including knowing the exact date and possible sanctions. So, this led us to conclude that certainly, France is more informed about the outcomes of the summit than the ECOWAS heads of state”. This just confirms that ECOWAS is nothing but puppets in the hands of France and the West. Anyways back to the Prime Minister’s interview.
