Africa France Fading Ties

FILE - French President Charles de Gaulle of France poses with the four presidents of the states of the African Entente Council after a summit in Paris, France on March 7, 1961. L-R: President Hamani Diori of Niger; President Maurice Yameogo of Upper Volta, now Burkina Faso; President Felix Houphouet-Boigny of the Ivory Coast; and President Hubert Maga of Dahomey, now Benin. African and French pundits, politicians and people alike say France has taken too long to shuck its long, postcolonial tradition of "Françafrique." It's an unflattering term that smacks of paternalistic influence and quiet deal-making among elites.(AP Photo/Levy, File) FILE PHOTO
