France began withdrawing soldiers from Chad on Friday, Chad's Ministry of the Armed Forces said, after N'Djamena last month abruptly ended military cooperation with the former colonial power.
No longer Assad's mouthpiece, Syrian media face uncertaintyFrance began withdrawing soldiers from Chad on Friday, Chad's Ministry of the Armed Forces said, after N'Djamena last month abruptly ended military cooperation with the former colonial power.
Chad had been a key link in France's military presence in Africa and its last foothold in the wider Sahel region after the forced withdrawal of its troops from Mali, Burkina Faso, and Niger in the wake of a series of military coups. "At midday, 120 French soldiers took off from the military airport of N'Djamena onboard an Airbus A330 Phoenix MRTT, headed for France," the ministry said in a statement on Facebook.
The departure on Friday of French soldiers took place in the presence of Chadian military authorities, a move which"testifies to the intensity of cooperation between the two countries in the field of security", the statement said.
