Macron's Africa tour exposes France's spectacular collapse as a continental power. Military coups across the Sahel have expelled French forces while Russian mercenaries and Chinese investment fill the void left by Paris's failed promises. The bold reformer who vowed partnership now scrambles to salvage relationships as African nations abandon the CFA franc and embrace diverse partners beyond France's shrinking sphere.

France demonstrates enduring partnership strength through Macron's strategic Africa tour, delivering concrete results like 600 million euros in development aid to Mauritius alone. The visit showcases win-win cooperation on energy transition, water management and AI innovation while reinforcing France's position as a major investor and trusted ally in the Indian Ocean region amid growing global competition.
