Frankreich fliegt zwei Mirage-Kampfflugzeuge aus dem Tschad aus, um den Beginn des militärischen Abzugs zu signalisieren

France has begun withdrawing its military forces from Chad, starting with the departure of two Mirage fighter jets, after Chad ended its defense cooperation agreement with France, citing a desire to redefine its strategic partnerships. The move comes amid growing regional shifts, as several West African nations, including Niger, Mali, and Burkina Faso, have ousted French forces and leaned closer to Russia. While France plans a gradual pullout of its remaining 1,000 troops, Chad has emphasized its intent to maintain historical ties and explore other areas of cooperation with France.
