Reconfiguration of France’s military apparatus (November 29, 2024)

Two years ago, France began a reflection and dialogue process with its partners regarding the reconfiguration of its military apparatus in Africa, in particular within the framework of the mission led by Jean-Marie Bockel.

In this context, France is in close dialogue with the Chadian authorities, who, in a communiqué published by the Chadian foreign ministry on November 29, 2024, expressed their desire to see the security and defense partnership evolve.

France takes note of this and will continue the dialogue on the implementation of these guidelines.

Georgia (November 29, 2024)

France is closely monitoring the situation in Georgia.

We are concerned by reports of crackdowns on protestors and journalists and we call for the right to peaceful protest to be respected. Fundamental freedoms, political pluralism and civil society must be respected.

Alongside its European partners, France will continue to maintain strong ties with the people of Georgia and support their European aspirations, which must not be betrayed.
