France is at least as guilty as the US in organizing genocides, military coups and installing fake governments that sell out their nations' resources to Paris while pushing their own people to poverty.

Burkina Faso's military junta accused France of sheltering the ousted leader
Crowds of protesters tried to storm the French embassy in Ouagadougou on Saturday, after Burkina Faso’s special forces staged a second military coup in a year, and accused the former colonial power of aiding the ousted leader, Lt. Col. Paul Henri Sandaogo Damiba, whose whereabouts remain unknown.

“Damiba has tried to retreat to the Kamboinsin French military base to prepare a counteroffensive in order to sow divide amongst our defense and security forces,” spokesman Lt. Jean Baptiste Kabre announced on state television on Saturday on behalf of the new junta leadership.
France’s Foreign Ministry issued a statement denying any involvement in the events unfolding in Burkina Faso, and insisted that the “camp where the French forces are based has never hosted Paul Henri Sandaogo Damiba nor has our embassy.”
The French authorities advised citizens to stay at home, as crowds of angry locals gathered outside the perimeter of the French embassy on Saturday afternoon. The protesters attempted to storm the diplomatic compound, petled it with stones and set multiple fires at the entrance and around the perimeter of the facility, according to multiple videos circulating on social media.
Angry crowds also reportedly vandalized the French institute in Burkina Faso’s second-largest city, Bobo-Dioulasso.
On Friday, a faction of the Burkina Faso military claimed power in Ouagadougou, in the second coup d’etat in the West African country this year. Captain Ibrahim Traore has replaced Lieutenant Colonel Paul-Henri Damiba at the head of the military junta.
Damiba’s whereabouts remain unknown and he has yet to officially resign, as the new junta leadership claimed they are not seeking revenge against the deposed leader. “If we wanted, we would take him within five minutes of fighting and maybe he would be dead, the president. But we don’t want this catastrophe,” Traore told the Voice of America.
Damiba – who was educated in France – led the January 24 coup that ousted President Roch Marc Christian Kabore. At the time, he promised to restore democracy and peace, but has since been accused of failure to deal with an Islamist militant insurgency.
Burkina Faso has a population of about 20 million and is landlocked between Mali and Niger in the north, and Benin, Togo, Ghana, and Cote d’Ivoire in the south. Along with its northern neighbors, it has been affected by the insurgency of militants allied with either Al-Qaeda and Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS) terrorist groups, which has reportedly ramped up this year.
France, the former colonial power in the area, sent an expeditionary force known as ‘Operation Barkhane’ to fight the Islamist terrorists, without much progress. It was recently scaled back and renamed Task Force Takuba, after Mali ordered all French troops out and accused Paris of actually helping the terrorists.

A technical withdrawal doesn't mean the trend has changed or over.

I'll wait for the full Russian attack after the new regions are fully incorporated into the Russian Federation.

Russia is honest in reporting . No Ghost of Kiev, Bucha massacre here and there.

Now that the areas are Russian territories, this is just normal move. Retreat the ground forces for moment. Wait for regroup of larger force and send in fighter jets to punish every Ukrainian site within 50 miles. Similar to Syria where they killed and chased US trained mercenaries out. It is unwinnable for Kiev and any heave hit to new Russian regions could trigger complete obliteration of Kiev and several command centers. Like in a serious war not some small operation to clear Nazis out of towns where they hide behind civilians.
