presence in the region by launching operation back. can thousands of french troops were sentence on camps resets of around the hail to combat arms groups linked to iso and al qaeda, they often attacked french convoys carrying it with cornices missions and supply runs, as well as the local african forces, which support frances campaign. the local forces have suffered most of their losses in those attacks. the well, let's bring in our guests jack, her long as a senior research fellow at the global policy institute, and he joins us from san malo in france. and from casablanca, in morocco is adama gay, he's a political, common faces specializing in the hell and west africa. first the, let's talk to us or tim tory, he's a member of the coalition of the african patriots of mccain. affonso, and he joins us now on the line from walker to get to have you with the asset

t. and sorry, i understand that you're protesting the french presence in the saw how region just explained to us why. why are you protesting against frances military presence in burkina faso evolve, evolve? let me come back in and be in the fire. this fact was that that fits in. busy but it's not possible it's. busy just been that. busy there's a couple of that is many on the war series and this the then iran, our company, many song with the home and they live right every day. and i'm sorry to jump when you talk about her life is hard. there

is no foods, and there is a threat of violence. do you think the french military is, is helping at all? the young people? also, i've decided the lights are fine. she minutes are nice yet it goes, we know in many, many, many during the time the ottoman not to do with $13.00 and let the people to less, if we could get chilly non and that is the 1st. i mean, it's hard to put that into right. the 1st, right, like this. the young people are not the, not it before. then it's if he has to prove that we can that,

that population. if it is up to the, for any, look it up as all we are not agree with that that's. that's why you decided that but that with the new less it comes from the law license number and the money and go okay. okay, a 30 m tory. thank you so much for joining us on the program and it's good to hear from you in the region. why this is such a tense issue? let me bring in our guests in the studio. we've heard from the protest, her jack alone, that the they have a hard life in breaking faso and they don't feel that the soldiers are protecting the people who are struggling without food. so struggling with violence every day.

instead, the french soldiers are protecting their own interests. harvey respond to that. yeah, we know it's a feeling that been simmering for quite a while. even in valley, where france was 1st seen as the savior and i seen as it invaded because the local population reuters is that he's spite of the strong military presence, frost, with 5000 soldiers and actions against group in the region. it hasn't stopped terror. recept acts as we saw if need be. okay enough. i saw 57 people were killed just a couple of 50 free of demons shot down just a couple of days before the french troop were going through the country on their way to the show. so which, which they did it away, the demonstration had a decision to stop. the convoy at his student,

france is as been fighting this endless war without any apparent results. ad we know that the military school or the reads every level of obtaining some results, but not enough because attacks of increased the last few years, the global war on terrorism as succeeded. but we know so that in this part of the well, the solution to the problems will not be military. it would be political and social, as we know that you can decide n, roads of programs sorta population, problem, hunger displacement at docs, disease. so frogs trying to have is seen in spite of that well, he was fans trying to help if my point because you said you've got yourself, the francis. there's that, you know,

these things don't work. and yet they've been there for 8 years. who's trying funds trying to help here at, at 1st the idea was to come to the rescue or they were asked for by the magic government of the time you bring the ib k data. and it was diffract interviewing as a result of the on demand because if for that the judge is group which had evaded, she had taken control of nor were moving towards by michael dead. the argument for continued french presence and an increase in the french presented the area was the fear that there will be some kind of side eastern endure region like up got his son with all the stories broke in the countries of science, which would in turn be dangerous for fraud, says received when you suddenly state to go over in iraq and syria,

it led to terrorist attacks in france, but the law shot you do come on deer from death. so that was does fear. but up to now, we haven't seen any attempts on european, all french, so emanating from groups present in, in africa. so why is for all the files good, go to describe the law now trying to find those sort of should buy good every g g with the 5 countries of decide we know the more return. yeah, each facility gather g 5, but the local army is not equipped. wedding off. and deborah problem sect in my leave. me ok. and let me just here yet it's, it's a, it's a very troubled campaign and it's

a very long campaign. adama gay. you have been watching this region for a very long time. we've had 8 years of a french military presence in your opinion, has operation. well, operation service operation bar can seem to be operation something else. this has been a failure. yes. is a fidget. it is fate, and it is not surprising if you look up front. these are really experienced not just in africa, but even in europe and asia, and also enough friends fade in vietnam in 195450 invo was defeated, a, b, c 2 by the phone and you've got national. it lost the 2 world war 1st one and 2nd 1995. well, let's for, let's focus on the router. yes,

let's focus on this particular conflicts. because what we need to bring the contents of cancer is trying to pretend as being able to help african res with already. and he's innovation in african countries. you take rhonda, you know, before we last year, 2011 a as in famous. and now he's trying to use a year with a real issue because in order to start to present as a new career, only that he's in an african country, at least i probably never even do a ever 40. so the french n b,

it were the problem that they seen as, depending day in just people are. so b, a might be the earliest giving us or so they are trying to broader a that is seen as a region that rich will not grow resources. ok, could be discover and also with france as not being able to address a and the other challenges like to monitor. so it is a problem for an individual africa beauty. but france is there just in order to form some areas that order the order to ship under his control. that's the problem. i think people are angry and the only also it is and you want to impose a k check or along. i saw you shaking your heads through much of

a case analysis there. yeah. what, what, what, where do you think is the problem? because we hear the point of view. this is frances, there to reinforce it is old imperial reach or whatever. but is the problem, i put it to you, jack for a loan that the, the mission hasn't been clearly defined. and francis mission in the somehow region has been one of simply containing a problem where it is rather than trying to fix it. you know, i said in certain solution, i don't want to go back to the failures of the french all me over the centuries but, but has been a failure. has this been a failure that has be defend or like, or was and there was a rack enough get, he stood, i can see, i know, we know it's a failure. we know it doesn't work. so what can be dog?

death problems. a is now accused of being a neil back to the excursion. your power is accused of being detroit and also the western interest for the mineral resources in that region may be thought may be the case, but just the, just the west was an interesting that richard was interesting. that when he talked about money, he does know, but the program in money is that the warm terrorism death as of the improved a lot of the population, especially in northern box of that region. and that is that the failure of the french army maybe in part, but it could be put down there. so to the ferry of the government. drew produce public services in that part of the world at many into north of chad. feel that they are protected by judges, group or nation, reese to our groups which,

which provided origin. so as at the same dot in you were just going to ask joe, cool. i see me going to a president and sugar bega. the the prime minister. i've been making an attempt to the discourse of our previous speaker saying that maybe russia would be better to head to fight. but sarah, maybe that's a bit of a stick because the wagner group that my lease quarter is talking with as, as not been very successful. georgia, i realize it's from a director of the program or so it's frances invasion attack to get a feel which opened all kinds of words into which that is a fact that's francie's responsibility. but it was socrates were supposed to do. it

was a or would you study to intervene? it was michael, kept on the intervention now france as decided to downgrade separation into region, bringing down from 50022500. as left maddie, maddie is not considering talking to russians, good up to them and to the and to do my young population for the backing of the russian. but that is saved on france is working with food, food for other countries, which it origin thing that the head of france is needed. i don't think fraud is on a new project. there. france is caught in a trap door to get out of the situation without the seat ed, we know that this region is about, okay, and it's the and so established group g. a distiller is grouped even is distributed, isaac, all the countries that are returned at trust is not the companies of this g,

as many people say, also showed this work and the previous or good, even in blanked, okay. at our mcgee, it's a d. how would you respond to that because the vac, no group and russia, do you have they have been active in other countries in africa? and that's something which has arguably caused problems in some places. i'm thinking specifically of libya. do you think that that would be a helpful intervention in the south region to invite in another, a foreign or army or, or foreign mercenaries from other countries? or is it simply time for the foreign countries to get aids of africa and for these nations to fix them, their problems themselves? that is the issue. actually, if you look up the history of foreign interventions, they haven't been successful,

the case in point could be a star where the soviet union u. k. and recently the u. s. b use there. in the case of africa today, we know that france is failing in this. i read it and he's going to be, you know, if it continues to be trying to using military life, even though it has to rely on a and b, from a framework. really this african problems would have to be fixed by itself under the african and the regional organizations such as the economy community. and there are. 8 military friend work for b, a g will be handled, the policies in order to address the only other head as

long as the political and development current, jeez, from within these countries address, you will continue to try to refund the benefit from the reach of the countries in africa, countries, in the case of france, i believe france is taking too much. it can try to control or african nation a doesn't have you been to come up with in the order of one. i do believe we need to have a c, c, o, african agrees with it will continue on and on and on like it is done in other for and the on the line. and it will be all we need to create a quick the means you put the furniture means that we have

to, well, if you choose the clothes, nothing are done with the rest of the world that is trying to come and i'm a, b, a, b, i think or b, a one a done example. if i could just very quickly said these problems lead an african solution. but some of these institutions within the populations in the countries i'm thinking of eco, was they regarded with suspicion by populations in the countries because they're seen as old president clubs that are too slow to act and to slow to criticize leaders. so where does the solution come from? you after the rush, i am a florida of course, you know, because my said, i bow a really good boots and the real product is

a corporate program of legitimacy. ok, if a fencing a little bit okay. realizing that to get that back to the problem is the time to place an order to take orders and they make sure that the populations that are against us realize that we are we learned at least that's what it booted up. also with an engine, mr. mark, cover it with the leadership of british or it was the other for it. okay. good. because it was it. okay. we are almost out of time. i a final question to you jacqueline, before we wrap up this discussion in one minute, if you can, is it time for france to get out of africa? i. i think that the countries are way francis prism the, as i said, the g 5

a. now the g for log trans to stated the french help didn't need the funding, didn't need me another to 5 to get his grow. frogs can just get out just like that if they could dive, who does the bulls? because dc, these intervention breaks, more problems, solutions and satisfaction. and we know that the situation relies that it probably would like african countries to be able to contribute to govern the country. devote directly g, g m, s, c. but when you see molly as a to cause in the last 2 years in august 2020 was 21 will be a demo, will be different, but the connections in february, next year, as dip promise, we don't know. the political and economic environment is so unstable

that there's nothing to gauge the shorter. ready the submissions we'll have to come as we would agree from african population that the government wants providing . okay. i want to ration if i can because when the final 10 seconds a one word answer from you at the gate, is it time for funds to leave africa? asked mister luis and cause a problem or a gentleman just just another stick. oh this way in the military buttons it needs to understand that african press. ok. and now we are absolutely out of time. a gentlemen. thank you so much for this lively discussion. i do appreciate it. thank you to jack hello and adama gay, and thank you for watching. remember, you can see the program again any time by visiting our website at al jazeera dot
