France intervened in Mali at Bamako's request in January 2013 and kept a counter-terrorism force there under Serval and Barkhane. The military authorities denounced the defence treaty in May 2022 and the last French troops left on 15 August 2022. What came after it is the Russian file.

摘要
Operation Serval, launched on 11 January 2013 at the request of the Malian government, stopped the jihadist advance and recaptured the northern towns; Barkhane succeeded it in 2014 as a regional force headquartered in Chad with its main Malian bases at Gao, Timbuktu and Ménaka, under a 2014 defence cooperation treaty. Relations with the post-2020 military authorities deteriorated over the Wagner deployment and the transition timetable: France announced Barkhane's departure from Mali in February 2022, Bamako denounced the 2014 treaty and the status-of-forces arrangements on 2 May 2022, and the last French elements crossed into Niger on 15 August 2022. Since then the relationship has been conducted through expulsions and detentions rather than instruments — the August 2026 pardon and expulsion of a convicted French embassy official is the latest such act — and no security cooperation of any kind exists.
為何重要
Every external-actor question in the module descends from this termination: the Russian presence arrived as the French one left, the AES was built by three governments that had each expelled France, and the northern towns Serval recaptured in 2013 are the ones the 2026 offensives took back. The relationship is historical; its consequences are the module's present.
