Mutinous soldiers ousted the West African nation’s democratically elected president hours after surrounding his home. It is the latest in a string of coups across the African continent.
Roch Marc Christian Kaboré was the democratically elected president after the ousting of Compaoré, assassin of Sunkara, who was trying to gain another illegal term as president.
Also important to note that there was a failed coup in 2015 right around when Kaboré was elected by a similar group to the successful one in 2022. Coincidentally, Burkina Faso became a hot spot for attacks from ISIS clones shortly after that 🤔
Most definitely. Although, how much was the deposed President also a French puppet? Don't know much about Burkina Faso post-1990s
