France condemned the move as “hostile and unfounded,” warning French citizens to exercise caution. The split follows years of deteriorating relations, including France’s withdrawal of military support after the coup and accusations of secret agendas and backing of insurgent groups. Burkina Faso is now aligning closer with China and Russia, while maintaining that cultural ties remain intact. This decision comes as the country, alongside Mali and Niger, exits Ecowas to form a new regional bloc — signaling a major foreign policy realignment. France has no ambassador in Burkina Faso since January 2023, after three diplomats were expelled on suspicion of subversive activities — a charge France denies.
