Mali's President Reveals French Army Betrayal during Joint Operations
“We were sent to the front lines while they stayed back. I witnessed them handing fuel and trucks to the rebels. When we attempted to push into Kidal, they pointed their guns at us.”
The very soldiers Mali relied on to combat terrorism were allegedly arming the enemy and celebrating their betrayals over the radio.
“I cried like a child, reflecting on how hundreds of Malian soldiers lost their lives while French troops remained unscathed.”
But instead of backing down, we emerged even stronger:
“We are not politicians. We are not puppets. We are liberators. Mali’s future is in our hands.”
Mali’s President Assimi Goïta revealed the French army’s betrayal during joint military operations. This experience fueled his determination to pursue Mali’s independence.
