And then, on the subject of Africa, there was Chirac’s abandonment of France’s diplomatic and military obligations to the Ivory Coast, with France instead effectively helping the Islamist insurgents to secure their territorial gains, this being pretty obviously done in punishment for the Ivory Coast having allowed non-French companies to bid on, and in some cases win, large contracts.
