Junta-led Burkina Faso, Mali Skip African Defence Talks Hosted by Nigeria | Firstpost Africa | N18G

Burkina Faso and Mali, led by military juntas, skipped a pan-African defence meeting in Nigeria, highlighting the growing rift between these Sahel nations and their West African neighbours. The talks, aimed at finding solutions for Africa's security needs, were attended only by Niger among the three allied Sahel states. This comes after Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger exited the regional bloc ECOWAS earlier this year, forming their own Alliance of Sahel States.

The tensions have led the Sahel nations to pivot towards Russia for security.
