Western Powers In Shock As Russia Just Deployed Troops To Burkina Faso

Just a few months ago, Captain Ibrahim Traore, the president of Burkina Faso, made a statement declaring that Russia holds significant importance for Africa, highlighting the connection between the future of Russia and Africa. However, it was unexpected that Burkina Faso and Russia would soon establish military cooperation. Russian President Vladimir Putin holds Captain Ibrahim Traore in high regard, considering him a respected man who knows how to drive Africa and his country towards greatness. This was demonstrated recently when Russia's deployment of troops to Burkina Faso surprised the Western world.

Previously, there were assessments suggesting a link between terrorism in Burkina Faso and France. This provided France with an excuse to station troops in Burkina Faso. However, Ibrahim Traore expelled them, leaving a void to be filled. The number of Russian troops deployed to Burkina Faso and their specific tasks remain unknown. It raises the question of whether they will put an end to foreign-sponsored terrorism in Burkina Faso once and for all.

This chain of events began in 2022, marking a significant turning point for Burkina Faso. The country embarked on a trajectory that would shape its future differently from the original plans. Captain Ibrahim Traore, who assumed the role of Burkina Faso's interim president, became the driving force behind this transformative vision. His intentions to reshape Burkina Faso into an exemplary African nation caught many by surprise.

After the coup in Burkina Faso, demonstrators turned to Russia for assistance, expressing their frustration with France's inability to suppress militant violence. The day after the coup, a crowd gathered in the capital's main plaza, cheering for the military takeover and sending two clear messages to the world: rejecting France and embracing Russia. This sudden call for Moscow's help highlights how Islamist violence in the Sahel region is reshaping alliances and challenging pro-Western democratic orders. Many protesters pointed to Russia's involvement in the Central African Republic, where Russian forces protect the president, oversee diamond mining operations, and repelled an Islamist offensive last year. Others cited Russia's recent engagement in Mali, Burkina Faso's neighboring country to the north.

Burkina Faso 🇧🇫 is the new Europe battleground for France (NATO) vs Russia

Mumu Traore, expelled France to invite Russia

I don't have any doubt Russia will slow down the current terrorism, but when they start their own, who are the Burkina Faso going to call

The big question is what is Russia/China's ulterior motive?



I mean we all know US and the west own. Which is to keep us down, but we need to know Russia's own so that we can either know whether we should trust no one or depend on Russia while trying to develop
