Russian President Vladimir Putin has met privately with Burkina Faso’s interim military leader, Captain Ibrahim Traore, over a situation that might not be unconnected with the Niger crisis.

While the details of the meeting were not clear as of the time of filing this report, there are speculations that the meeting was part of Putin’s plans to meet with French-speaking West African countries ruled by the military.

A short clip of the Russian leader’s meeting with Traore was posted by Jackson Hinkle on social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, on Monday.

@jacksonhinkle wrote, “Putin held a private meeting with the world’s youngest leader, Captain Ibrahim Traore of Burkina Faso.”

Traore is the world’s youngest currently serving leader after becoming the interim leader of Burkina Faso following the coup on 30th September 2022 which ousted interim president Paul-Henri Sandaogo Damiba.

Mali and Burkina Faso have pledged their to Niger, as the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) issued a one-week ultimatum to the junta to reinstate ousted President Mohamed Bazoum.

The deadline elapsed on Sunday and the ECOWAS leaders said they would converge again on Thursday for the next move.

The way I like this Taore guy. I wish he can be the leader of the whole Africa. I like the fact that he's young, ambitious and tough.

That aside, Niger cutting ties with only to embrace Russia is like watching a rape victim run from one rapist's house to the house of another rapist for safety. Na by force bashing she go still collect.

What I mean is and Russia are different sides of the same coin. They are both colonizers.

While revolutionaries as individuals can be murdered, you cannot kill ideas (Thomas Sankara, October 1987)

This bastard; in the African-Russia economic summit
He said he didn’t want anybody to feel sorry for African and Africa starting from him would stop collecting aid (as in pity money)
But look at him now shamelessly licking putin’s ass thinking Putin is going to save him
He’s scared Ecomog might turn on him so he needs ( as in Pity money) should In case ecomog turn to him after dealing with that coupist in Niger

I will believe that putin will talk sense to him because he because of Niger lose west Africa interest. Putin need Africa to be on his side because he believes if Africa is gone from the west he can defeat them. Africa is where the west get 70%/of resources use for their economy
