The scaled-down arrangement that had been envisaged, featuring a stronger training focus, has completely fallen through.<br>This decision must be viewed in the context of the upcoming presidential election in C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire, at a time when a renewed Pan-African sentiment advocating for real rather than formal independence from France is widely favoured. The \u00c9lys\u00e9e has probably exerted some heavy-handed pressure for the Ivorian President to give up on running for a new term. This is tit for tat, demonstrating a total loss of influence for France in one of Africa's leading countries, with the withdrawal of French troops from Senegal already having been made official.<br>The mission entrusted to Jean-Marie Bockel on the redeployment of French forces in Africa is turning out to be a resounding fiasco. Indeed, the latter stated on 7 November 2024 that \u00abour African partners do not wish for our departure\u00bb. This practice of using special envoys to bypass the Quai d'Orsay and ministers who know nothing about Africa has been showing all its limitations for some time now, without any conclusions being drawn.<br>Our policy towards Africa is always a step behind and we continually demonstrate a profound inability to understand and analyse the feelings of Africans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure
