Burkina Faso/64 years: Captain Ibrahim Traoré honors the sacrifice and courage of the National Armed Forces
The Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces, Captain Ibrahim Traoré, paid a heartfelt tribute to the national armed forces and their valiant auxiliaries, the Volunteers for the Defense of the Homeland, during the commemoration of the 64th anniversary of the creation of the national armed forces.
This solemn moment was an opportunity to salute the courage, determination, and sacrifice of these men and women who are committed daily to the defense of the homeland and the fight against destabilizing forces.
Captain Ibrahim Traoré reminded everyone of the essential role played by the FDS and VDP in strengthening national security, while renewing his unwavering support for those who, at great personal sacrifice, work to preserve territorial integrity and peace for future generations.
It should be noted that under Captain Ibrahim Traoré’s leadership, the Burkinabe army has embarked on a large-scale reorganization, rearmament, and strengthening of strategic alliances to confront the terrorist threat and preserve the territorial integrity of Burkina Faso.
This dynamic includes increased modernization of equipment, improvement of operational capabilities, and enhanced cooperation with regional partners, particularly through the Alliance of Sahel States, which includes Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger. These initiatives aim to consolidate national sovereignty while addressing increasingly complex security challenges.
