Mali is Just the Latest: US Africa Command Trained Troops Behind at Least Seven Coups in 13 Years by Morgan Artvukhina 4221 Subscribe While the US Army School of the Americas is infamous for training right-wing guerrilla forces across Latin America, less well-known are the Pentagon’s military training programs in Africa, including the Flintlock exercises for the G5 Sahel nations, nearly all of which have experienced military coups in the last 13 years. On Thursday, Malian Vice President Assami Goita, a colonel in the Malian Army, completed his second coup d’etat in just nine months, overthrowing the interim government he helped install and declaring himself the country’s interim president. A Western-trained soldier, Goita's is just the latest in an increasingly long list of coups d’etat in Africa by soldiers trained by US Africa Command since its creation 13 years ago. Since it was created in 2008, troops trained by AFRICOM have been directly responsible for at least seven successful coups d’etat in Africa, nearly all of which have occurred in West Africa, and one that was directly carried out by AFRICOM forces. Here are some of them: • Mauritania, 2008. In August 2008, after Mauritanian Gen. Mohamed Ould Abdel Aziz overthrew the Mauritanian government of President Sidi Ould Cheikh Abdallahi, a spokesperson for US European Command told US military publication Stars and Stripes that the US had a “bilateral relationship” with Aziz and had coordinated security cooperation programs with him.
