Senegal New President - macron senegal - Macron Tells Senegal New President Bassirou Diomaye Faye France Wants To 'Intensify Partnership' - French President Emmanuel Macron might be in for a rude awakening. In a diplomatic tête-à-tête brimming with intrigue and historical baggage, Macron extended an unexpected olive branch to Senegal's recently elected firebrand, Bassirou Diomaye Faye. Macron's offer to "intensify the partnership" between the two nations feels like a desperate attempt to mend a fraying relationship.
Senegal's historic election of Faye, a man who just emerged from prison for defying the neo-colonial order, sends a powerful message. Faye's victory is a roar for sovereignty, a rejection of the very "partnership" Macron proposes. Senegal yearns to break free from the vestiges of colonial control, particularly the economic stranglehold of the CFA Franc and any lingering French influence.
Faye's manifesto is a declaration of independence, a document pulsating with the word "sovereignty." Dismantling the CFA Franc and renegotiating resource deals are just the first steps. Senegal, under its young lion, is poised to claim its rightful place as a free and self-determined nation. Will France's embrace stifle this roar, or can Senegal forge a new path free from colonial burdens?
While his firebrand political mentor Ousmane Sonko has regularly railed against former colonial power France, Faye said after his win that Senegal would remain a trustworthy ally of foreign partners. That reassurance was welcomed by France, Senegal's main political and economic partner, which has seen its influence wane in its former West African colonies in recent years.
