The President of the Burkinabe transition, Captain Ibrahim Traoré, will suffer the same fate as Thomas Sankara? This question which torments the minds of Burkinabè and African citizens was answered by the person concerned during an interview.
“It’s the phobia of the Burkinabe people. When they think about this, they always fear for me. For my part, I am not afraid. », replied Ibrahim Traoré. And continues: “We have faced death several times. We rubbed shoulders with her. God made us alive. We give him thanks.”
However, the young captain and head of state with the appearance of Thomas Sankara, claims to have taken the past into account. “We’re not going to make the same mistakes again. That’s for sure. Imperialism is a very bad student when it is driven out, it comes back with the same method. We will not let the same mistakes happen again,” he promised.
On the question of his country’s exit from ECOWAS, the Burkinabé Head of State remains firm. “Our route is a path of no return. The chains we are breaking are forever. “, he commented.
Regarding international relations, Ibrahim Traoré indicates that Burkina is in the process of asserting its sovereignty. In fact, any country and any organization that respects this will be in good relations with Burkina.
