Ibrahim Traore’s Surprising Move To Rwanda

Recently, Burkina Faso’s military leader, Ibrahim Traoré, Dispatched high-ranking military generals to Rwanda, a nation under the rule of another military leader for the past 23 years. Despite a prior collective security pact between Niger, Burkina Faso, and Mali, there was widespread anticipation of Rwanda joining the alliance. This expectation stems from the considerable influence of Rwanda’s leader, Paul Kagame, who is recognized as one of the most powerful African leaders. The prospect of Kagame aligning with Niger, Burkina Faso, and Mali would create a formidable alliance, instilling fear in Western powers. Despite earlier attempts by the West to dissuade Rwanda from involvement, recent developments indicate a shift in dynamics. Captain Ibrahim Traoré seeks to bring Paul Kagame to the negotiating table, leading to the dispatch of his generals to Rwanda for secretive discussions and agreements that have heightened concerns among Western nations.
