French President Emmanuel Macron has invited Chadian President Mahamat Déby to Paris in a bid to renew relations following a significant downturn in military ties after Chad ended its defense agreement with France in November 2024. The invitation was conveyed by France’s Ambassador to Chad during a meeting in N’Djamena, which aimed at revitalizing bilateral cooperation. Despite asserting its sovereignty, Chad recently signed a military cooperation agreement with Belarus, indicating a shift in alliances. Déby’s office emphasized the need for a fresh approach to cooperation that respects the interests of both nations.
