France says reviewing Mali presence after diplomat expelled
France said on Tuesday that it would review along with EU partners its military presence in Mali, a day after the junta in Bamako ordered the French ambassador to leave the country. The expulsion, made because of alleged "hostile" comments by the diplomat, raised fresh doubts over France's continued military support for Mali, a deeply poor former French colony and ally that is battling a nearly decade-long anti-jihadist campaign.
