This comes after the country’s ruling military junta had revoked the US’s military operations on its soil. VOA’s Esther Githui-Ewart spoke to Ibrahima Kane, a West African political analyst, for more on why the junta decided to cut ties with the US and what it will mean going forward with the country’s military engagements.
