The Washington Post<\/em> has revealed that the US has strengthened intelligence sharing with the military administration in Mali in recent months.<\/p>\n

According to three current and former American officials who spoke<\/a><\/span> to the newspaper, Washington is taking this step to help stop the advance of extremist groups in West Africa.<\/p>\n

Intelligence was used in Malian army operations<\/strong><\/p>\n

The officials stated that the intelligence provided was used in attacks conducted by the Malian army.<\/p>\n

According to the report, this development is part of a broader effort by the Trump administration to re-engage with the isolated military junta, with which Washington has largely maintained its distance since the junta came to power in 2021.<\/p>\n

American and Malian officials noted that new rules of engagement began to take shape during the Donald Trump era.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe message is clear: We are not judging how you came to power\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

A former American official, speaking to The Washington Post<\/em> on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive matters, summarized the administration’s stance:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe administration is making it clear: It is not our right to judge how you came to power. The message is\u2026 If you are there, we are here,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

American officials emphasized that Washington’s strategy is still in the development phase.<\/p>\n

The administration is reportedly trying to resolve how it will address concerns about the military junta’s human rights record and the possibility of it passing US intelligence to Moscow.<\/p>\n

One of the current officials stated, \u201cMali is a largely flawed partner.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
