Tchad: Gen. Kaka returns the “favour”

I instructed the government to act in accordance with the principles of reciprocity and suspend the issuance of visas to citizens of the United States of America. Chad has no planes to offer, no billions of dollars to give but Chad has his dignity and pride” – President Mahamat Idriss Deby Itno (05.06.2025).

In a swift turn, the Field Marshal and President Mahamat Idriss “Gen. Kaka” Deby Itno has responded to the suspension of Chadian citizens from entering the United States of America. Yesterday, Washington D.C. issued another “travel bans” on several of nations, including Tchad.

That’s why the General and Head of State, Gen. Kaka has retorted in this manner. It is more of a symbolic action. As the Republic isn’t a tourist destination and neither is it a sought after travel destination for Americans. The American population or citizens won’t have much knowledge or even the ability to find the nation on the map. They are most likely to ignorant to have any idea about or be concerned about it either. Not like they are having steady commercial flights from Newark or Atlanta to N’Djamena any time soon.

Gen. Kaka does this for posturing and national pride. It is an easy way to score points at home. This doesn’t cost him much. His maybe poking the bear of Washington D.C., but his nation is part of the Francafrique and former French colonies. So, they are more connected to France than anything else. Not like they have such vast enterprises with the Americans. They have some old security and bilateral agreements, but that’s more power-play and soft-power moves of the old-Washington and not the current one. Certainly, those might be endangered by this move, but who knows, right?

Gen. Kaka is now challenging Washington D.C., even if he risks little to nothing doing so. Tchad is just showing its sovereign and rights as an independent nation. The President, the Field Marshal and Commander-in-Chief is just proving himself. His putting himself on a grand stage. Maybe even getting introduced outside his normal sphere. That’s good for him, but at what cost?

Will this be beneficial and will it hurt him in the long run?

We can just wonder what the outcome of this will be. If the Security Agreements and the bilateral agreements will be deferred or cease to operate. As those are the ones that isn’t allowed to enter Tchad. That means the American soldiers and training companies has to leave or move to another nation on the continent. This could be the result of this here, as it is not like the Republic is a hotspot for expats or for digital migration. Neither is it a place for tourism or for American’s traditional holiday destination. Therefore, it will have other consequences.

Just like the yesterday’s act of Washington D.C. is blocking asylum seekers and refugees from Tchad to enter the United States of America. They are blocked from better future and from entering a nation that could offer them a better tomorrow. That is now not an option and these people have to seek shelter elsewhere. There most likely more Chadian citizens wanting to go to the U.S. than the other way around.

This is why this is posturing. This is a ploy for political capital. Washington D.C. wins their base by bosting the blockade of people from Tchad. Meanwhile, the Gen. Kaka drums on the banner of patriotism and nationalism by blocking U.S. in the same manner. Though it won’t be as powerful or as substantial, as it is to the souls and the people trying to reach the West. Peace.
