3:35 am
a faster and chad and french and european forces were pulled out of molly earlier this year when diplomatic relations salad after military cruise and 20202021. frances president announced the end of the operation while launching a national strategic review of the military is aims for the next decade. manual micron says around 3000 french soldiers will remain in the held that in a different capacity. it will, should last it new botany. don't, don't. our interventions must be better defined from the beginning when we do not intend to remain committed to external operations indefinitely. it's also for this reason that i decided, in consultation with our partners, to formally announce the end of our bill. us jump account today. a military support to the african nations of the rita will continue. but according to the new principles that we have defined with them. well, let's take a closer look at how all of this developed in 2012 tory separatists took over large parts of northern molly al qaeda and i for linked fife is also entered that region
3:36 am
. and in january of the following year, france launched operations survival at the request of molly's government, sending troops to try to get rid of those groups. now, despite this, the group remained active. in 20147 was succeeded by operation by come, its aim was to provide broader support to the g. 5, how member states. and then in 2020, the french lead to cuba task force of use special forces of launched. that joint unit was meant to eventually replace operation dot com. it suspended its operations earlier this year the. i will, it's now bringing out guests from dock. all we have is on have a just account. he is, is a hell, a project director at international crisis group from paris near got about your call. she's the chair of the african security sector network and from lagos, nigeria, to mecca as a, he's the executive director of the west african network. the piece building. i will welcome to you all and thank you for joining us on inside story today. i don't have
3:37 am
a, i'll start with you. i want to understand what the end of operation about can actually means in practical terms. because we know that the 3000 trips will remain on the ground. so is this really just a shift in terms of engagement here? well, exactly, mean, we general strategy to policy money. so share, you know, in the k from i've been leaving, you know, role regional or international. she struck the region and back out really at the center we are withdrawing from the competence of regional position their regional population anymore. so why ended yesterday? it will be shut is, is screeching,
3:38 am
can reach us about what we made on the ground. so there's a lot of friends show are in money for years and you let us in but still in the region where you are involved and trying to convey to the expansion of niggley. i'm curious how much you believe that you are sitting in paris. this is driven by the mystic french consideration center. there were french deaths as part of the mission, some 55 deaths. and this is obviously pause of a broader strategic military review. marconas tried to count this as more of a pivot back to europe, especially within the context of the war and ukraine doesn't go beyond that.
3:39 am
no, in my view, it does no direct links wizard, internal, a political situation in france where you know, a public opinion generally as not lot self interest in international policy, foreign affairs and military interventions. i don't think nicer is it as any a links that with the current engagement engagement of france in you cren. even if it's true that to today friends are decided to review. it's a strategic position with a grill growing involvement in a so called conventional conflict. but no, in my view, does their retreat and these and formal and offer about i saw him back on his
3:40 am
link to the very limited the success. and more importantly, to their rejection and to their resentment which has been growing increasingly among public opinions in a, as a hell and more generically west african countries or took omeka. let me ask you than in the region. is this being regarded as a kind of tacit acknowledgements of the failures here? well, i think it depends on who you provide indirect. they have, if you act, the phrase boatman might think they have amid, on the box that would in the present have been present. molly would argue that because if you came with a delighted margie and by extension d and region, then the withdrawn would be how much of the provision have taken place. and
3:41 am
especially happening at the time that the, i guess the french government in, in miley and increasing, you know, but i think also that has been buttons that we put all the stuff together. we include the fact that the french got me, my thinking, i'd better call this on current, russia, you on the basis of the, the russia. i'm how russia you also now become a new friend of be my and given b, b government, a book, you know, 1st of all is important. so, in thinking that this is, john doesn't begin by the french book. i am sure that such contributions were me and again, the economic interests we between the 2 countries have reduced drastic. i had a lot of people are aware that some of the egg political economy of this crisis is also something to do with the benefits either for
3:42 am
a french government to monday or even from my dear friend government. well, as near golly was saying that we have seen this very dramatic escalation of anti french public sentiment. i want to listen to some of the reaction we had in the jail after microns announcement. let's take a listen. who's a one g one? so we have said in black and white that if you do not need to present the friends bob con, force in the did well, because it's a force that's a little bit better than the for hill. it's the root of the problem. it cannot be a solution and a sponsor for the problem here is full of water and we will know you will appear as sure having a new name in your permission. and so how it doesn't change anything for us. it's still the same soldiers who are there until now. we have not had convincing results, hasan kitty lou normally, when they left northern molly a part of these. but con elements came to ne j since these year requested their support to come in. since then,
3:43 am
some of these elements have been working together with local armed forces and they're doing a remarkable job on the ground. gideon. so we have some mixed reaction. there is on have a do you feel that this is reflective that of public sentiment on the ground and why was so little achieved? yes, you did the reflecting on the wrong strong the trends garden killing love in the last few years. read. see, i don't think we what we call the term or why? oh really sorry . but i think in a nutshell, i've seen too much in the military or,
3:44 am
and they were able to do things, you know, 1st of all, to really enjoy their bars. and i think that they never fed them said offers you finding all the safety reasons. i'm thinking i think that is fraud or so, or the other actors involved in trying to reach of net or my where balance strategy. and by when i knew that many editors, military operation, profit, or is always can 1st and they get all of our other objectives and what we want them
3:45 am
to kind of probably about the problem or the region and, and i think they always do, you know, very variation to be brought our mission and a name or by our so chance of course there are lots of different complex drivers in that region. but let me bring in shemika here because i understand your organization as part of a civil society coalition that's really been calling for more coherent grassroots action and has also been very critical of prioritizing a military solution. so let me ask you, what would you like to see done differently? now? i think the 1st thing to do to picket force, which all the military investments, all the investment have been made in, not just money, but india. every joke. what kind of resource to we use the not time to begin, we vests in skills and d
3:46 am
n. deborah to ask use of the citizens windy im, that we are dealing with human security. not just hard core security, because this is what has happened over the years. he has the tunnel military. he has, we can be reached or not. it's was the, it was if list in the region you has, we can be africa, you know, if list on the, in the region and the house for that. we can this be coping mechanisms of the city . so why make such a huge investment or need just focusing on how to go security when get a fundamental issues with dr. issues that need to address which is invested in the human beings in the citizens of the states. a lot of people, few that the economy of deciding john is not dependent on foreign it and people are no longer even confident in themselves to do anything. so we want to see a situation where there should be more of
3:47 am
a lot of soft approach secretly approach to these models. dom look more of investments in my computer so that people come have skills that cannot remove them from crime and begin to focus on likelihoods. okay, let me bring in the gala here because as we've been saying, lots of different issues at play, this isn't just about religion or politics or resources and can you break it down for us and what's driving recruitment in particular for some of these groups, sarah, different can a factor of the watch is very important to realize the fact that even if you knew surely those g, heidi group where coming from the broad especially from the gerry a they have changed and there has been much and more room to do in the local environment no, the most important movement, b a i, c,
3:48 am
t to arcade, or to the eastern states are headed or compound, also local combatants and they do have a lot. so 1st strong linkages with local communities and local networks. it is also important to look at to their transnational a b, t to shift from an area to another one. of course you can find and then there are economy crisen. i have region is one of the forests in the words that you also do have id, logical matter of the idea. and what is important is not to consider all of those groups only as a violent extremist. it is also important to look into take into consideration.
3:49 am
there are political agenda because there are also different between political actors, even if it is much more easy to identify political claims from c t groups rather than to those which are as you need to this, i mean, states will, speaking of political agendas, just taking a step back, it does seem that the kremlin, for instance, is very eager to step into the space that's been left by the french. we certainly will that, obviously in molly, after the french pulled out on have a, can i ask you, what are the, what kind of a difference has that made to be, you know, when the french richardson for many so teachers, problems you know, thinking that, that this is not i think. 3 there might be
3:50 am
a. 1 person there easy, don't worry to organize ways in the beginning of the year, but i remember extra digits are getting better because i'm just struggling. the french lead to the expected situation for me, maureen. and so an interesting that there was also continued, you know, between the french and derision in both cases. maddie is
3:51 am
very answer. the fact that we're going to, if you are, i don't believe that the russia do succeed, was in french, you know, way they're, you know, read over be very answer on either answer to the fact well, we were russian flags i recall being waved around during the crew and became a foster not only by protest as but also by soldiers and then an engineer, we will say so us and protested waiving russian flags just a few months ago. there's been speculation about misinformation, campaigns by moscow clinic. i'm curious, do you feel that to people on the ground, particularly in rural communities, all the russians viewed differently from the french? i mean, ultimately this is as long as i was alluding to that this is still just men with guns. i think is a big hero. 6 wishing you remember your key cheer about the devil?
3:52 am
i knows better than the engine light on. oh, you know so easy because the question, if you go to some of the biggest in this are hell, the question you're actually including just isn't, sees this relationship with the french. what has it fetched us? you know, to the extent that postcolonial period, iowa currency, our economy did not mean by what the leasing party. so just asking those questions on that jenny was just to be very honest. however, we do not even know the details of the new fresh. you've been quoted with, with russia, so that is even a major problem and be more the 6 across country was the piece of security architecture in, not just this, a heavy john, but also in the west africa john, the more and more di, security, the entire coping mechanisms on his zillions august citizens and he's, it's cindy. so her region will continue to be lacking in confidence and the ability to stand on the slope. so now you are actually
3:53 am
a critical question. so what happens post d, the french a bruises? what happens? the d, my army, for example, does not have the wherewithal to now step in because dated lawyer investment deliberates investment in them to step in both disintegration. so that's a huge problem. well, we do now have the military and charge in both molly and became a foster. i'm wondering how much french military failures here actually contributed to regime change all the sentiments for that to actually take place. and near got a do you think that it did and could we potentially see more in chattanooga for instance. i think you hear it is very important to make a difference between the different countries. for sure. what happened in chad after the death of mary shallow? either he's the be no. i've been with the french position, which immensely recognized the military committee headed by the
3:54 am
son of the late leader as being a factor which was a contributed to institutionalized and digital mize. a military thought were in shut in values. that's completely different. i think that's a prominent that friends i've come to the overlooked governance problem, both in brook enough and in my lee. in fact, the focus, my colleagues as the stress on the only the military approach to the marion or a blue cannot be a crisis. eyes that prevented friends to look at the big, big problems in terms of governments of governance and the way which elected leaders. the big guy in my li or a boy here in the, in the book enough i saw have been greatly rejecting by their own to be continued.
3:55 am
and in fact, it is. the result is the reason why there has been office thrown by a military genta and their friends, especially in my lead. i've been trying to have a 1000000 needed to re forward to be all to themselves and to be replaced by new elect leaders. but he did not have them because it's very difficult, was such a double standard, fully seized with such a position in chad and another was in my lee and in the later extended working offices. let's take a look now there at what's next. i know there's a huge amount of uncertainty, as we've all alluded to, but there are, as you said earlier on have a, there are a number of soldiers on the ground. something like what? $14000.00 un peacekeepers still there. we had the g 5 forces from new zab. akina, martini chad. molly's pulled out so i'm not convinced of how successful the g 5
3:56 am
forces are going forward. i'm curious about your thoughts, but we have heard from joseph burrell, the e u foreign policy chief. he says the terror threat is expanding and he's calling for a collective response which, which all 3 of you seem to be calling for her is that 2 things on ebay? the space for political dialogue here is that the political will for piece talks, perhaps a dozen different entries. right. all right. you see a shot in the sense that the strategies you're really tell you i, that's unfortunate because i think that's my 2 years ago why? one of the 1st country said that the government i don't we are right. so i think
3:57 am
that if you look at the very different patricia there said yeah, that gauge in those we jazz is not necessarily the readers find. these are interpreted every vendors and got ways to really raise some commanders and to share. so i think that we are right now and i'm sure you're right now, but we are logged in here. and of course, as this continues,
3:58 am
civilians continue to pay the price for the ongoing conflict. thank you, though for joining our discussion today. thank you to all of august. don't have a just the kell near golly bugger, yoko and shook america as a and thank you to for watching. you can see this program again anytime by visiting our website. that's algebra dot com and for further discussion and you go to our facebook page, that's facebook dot com forward slash ha, inside story. remember, you can also join the conversation on twitter. we are at 8 inside the door for me and associates. hey, i'm hoping here in the news . ah,
