Le Monde and Liberation reported on Sunday that Burkina Faso authorities expelled two of their correspondents, Sophie Doss and Agnès Faivre.
Liberation newspaper announced that the two journalists arrived in Paris on the same day.
Le Monde newspaper’s director, Jerome Vinolio, urged the local authorities to reestablish the necessary conditions for an independent media in the nation.
The authorities of Burkina Faso decided to terminate links with French media, as part of a national ‘anti-french’ agenda implemented through several previous actions.
Last Friday, the National Security Department summoned the two journalists to Ouagadougou and ordered them to leave Burkina Faso within 24 hours.
