Africa: Departure of French forces, the unshakeable will of the Chadian people
Chad has firmly set January 31, 2025, as the final deadline for the complete withdrawal of French forces from its territory. This decisive and irreversible action reflects the collective resolve of the Chadian people to fully reclaim control over their national destiny and reassert their independence on the global stage.
No negotiations or compromises will alter this timeline. The Chadian authorities are committed to taking all necessary steps to ensure strict adherence to this schedule, guided by a spirit of national unity, discipline, and responsibility.
Any attempts to delay, impose conditions, or challenge this decision will be deemed an unacceptable violation of the legitimate aspirations of the Chadian people to fully embrace their freedom and sovereignty.
This moment represents a pivotal turning point in Chad’s assertion of its national sovereignty, driven by the dignity, courage, and resilience of its people. It also sends a powerful message to regional and international stakeholders.
Chad, fully aware of its potential and responsibilities, is prepared to embrace its role as a free and sovereign state, dedicated to the development, stability, and prosperity of its citizens.
