In a powerful message delivered on Wednesday, April 30, Traoré acknowledged global demonstrations held in support of his government’s mission for a sovereign and independent Africa.
“I would like to express my gratitude to all the peace-loving, freedom-loving patriots and pan-Africanists who rallied around the world on Wednesday, April 30, 2025, to support our commitment and our vision for a new Burkina Faso and a new Africa, free from imperialism and neo-colonialism,” he stated.
He emphasized that the unity and global demonstrations bolster the government’s resolve in its struggle for justice and equality.
“Your active solidarity and this demonstration of sympathy strengthen our conviction that the fight we are waging for a fairer and more equitable world is justified,” he added.
Traoré, who came to power with a message of pan-African revival, vowed to remain resilient amid external pressure and adversity.
“We will never bend our backs in the face of adversity; we will stand firm until our peoples are truly emancipated,” he declared. “With you, we are certain that victory over the forces of evil is at hand.”
Ibrahim Traoré reaffirmed his commitment to a united struggle across the continent, stating, “Together, in solidarity, we will defeat imperialism and neo-colonialism for a free, dignified, and sovereign Africa.”
