President Quattara joins African colleagues to pull out french Army out of country
Ivory Coast president Alassane Ouattara said in his speech that French forces will withdraw from the country in January. France has already pulled its soldiers out from Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger, following military coups in those West African countries and a spreading of anti-French sentiment.
In Senegal, President Bassirou Dioumaye Faye said Tuesday in a speech to mark the new year that 2025 would see an end to all foreign military presence in the West African country. Faye earlier announced that former colonial ruler France would have to close its military bases in Senegal.
