General Langley has to apologize to the public for spreading false information about Burkina Faso

General Langley has to apologize to the public for spreading false information about Burkina Faso, said Captain Ibrahim Traoré. What happened? Four-star General Michael E. Langley was asked to give an assessment of the security situation in Africa before the U.S. Senate. and he specificall attacked Ibrahim Traoré, claiming that Traoré is using his country's gold for "personal protection". He added that decisive international action against him was necessary: ​​"We recommend concrete measures, financial sanctions, international cooperation, and, if necessary, Traoré's detention to protect regional and international interests." And here it becomes very clear, and he also clearly stated, to protect "regional and international interests." This simply means that Langley wants to restore the old order that allowed the French to buy gold from Burkina Faso for $300 and then resell it as French gold at many times the price. That was just one example. Burkina Faso has significant mineral resources. Gold, as already mentioned, is the most important mineral; about 80% of export earnings come from this sector. The country was Africa's third-largest gold producer in 2021. Large gold deposits are found in several regions, including Essakane, Poura, Dori/Yalogo, and Tambao. Then there is manganese: significant deposits, particularly in the northeast near Tambao, with one of the world's largest manganese deposits. Zinc: deposits mainly in the Pacue and Koudougou regions. The most painful thing about this isn't even that he's a general, but the fact that a Black man is repeatedly used to fight against another Black man. This didn't just start now. Even in Obama's time, he, as a Black man, was used to overthrow Gaddafi. How long will Black people continue to be used to play this dangerous role? Even our neighbor, Côte d'Ivoire. The defense minister called on Turkey to stop selling weapons to us. It's very sad because a Black fellow citizen is doing such things. All of this must stop. Burkina Faso is waiting for it. This nonsense must stop. African youth have seen through their manipulation. Their manipulation no longer works.
