Burkina: A United Nations justice of the peace calls on the government to dialogue with armed groups

Defense security expert, justice of the peace and diplomat accredited to the United Nations, Achille Dode, invited the Burkinabè government during a press conference, to the negotiation, to the dialogue with unidentified armed groups for the return of peace to Burkina Faso.

“For us, there is a need for the Burkinabè authorities to adopt a new approach for a way out of the crisis, a more global approach. We believe that terrorism exploits certain flaws in the system in place,” said defense security expert, justice of the peace and diplomat accredited to the United Nations Achille Dode.

The expert in security defense justice of the peace diplomat accredited to the United Nations, Achille Dode, animated a press conference in Ouagadougou at the National Press Center Norbert Zongo.

“For about ten years now, the brotherly people of Burkina Faso have been undergoing and living through a security crisis. Born of the arrival on our territory of armed terrorist groups, day after day, this country is losing its children. Countless innocent people are losing their lives,” added Mr. Dode.

For him, “this impotence is justified by the fact that terrorism remains an unconventional phenomenon, therefore difficult to apprehend because of the multiple facets. It will therefore be difficult, even with a designer magnifying glass, to be certain of a person belonging to an armed group”.

According to him, suspicion has reached a very high level with a deleterious social atmosphere and hate speech, extremists are not likely to improve the situation.

Crisis exit solutions

The security expert suggests that the military option is not the only weapon that Burkina Faso deploys to counter terrorism.

He proposes that the State work to reduce the vulnerability of populations by giving them the means to undertake income-generating activities. "We must have a policy of empowerment of women and young people," he said.

“So it would be wise for the country to go to the battlefield with offers that prevent young people from being seduced by these people,” he concluded.

Achille Dode is Ivorian but he claims to be first and foremost African. He is a Diplomat Justice of the Peace accredited to the United Nations. He is also a consultant, an expert in defense security.

He says he came to support the Burkinabè government by providing solutions. He intends to exchange in the days to come with the government, civil society, religious to help the country in its approach to fight against terrorism
