Burkina Faso Strengthens Control Over Strategic Sectors

President Ibrahim Traoré defended a sovereignist vision in an interview on Sunday, marking the third anniversary of his inauguration.

Key points made by the president:

Burkina Faso is regaining control over key areas like mining, agriculture, and essential public services.

Specifically, Burkina Faso purchased two mines for about $164,000, ensuring that profits benefit the population.

In agriculture, facing private sector inaction, the state will invest in sectors like rice cultivation to decrease food dependency.

Automotive technical inspection, previously privatized, will also return to the state.

"If the state is not strong, there is no country," Traoré stated.
