Le minist\u00e8re fran\u00e7ais des Affaires \u00e9trang\u00e8res a confirm\u00e9, mardi 11 ao\u00fbt, avoir engag\u00e9 une proc\u00e9dure disciplinaire contre l’ambassadeur de France en R\u00e9publique centrafricaine, Bruno Foucher. \u00ab \u00c0 l’initiative du minist\u00e8re, une enqu\u00eate administrative a \u00e9t\u00e9 r\u00e9alis\u00e9e \u00e0 Bangui en 2026. D\u00e8s r\u00e9ception des conclusions de cette mission, sur demande du ministre, le minist\u00e8re a engag\u00e9 une proc\u00e9dure disciplinaire \u00e0 l’encontre de l’ambassadeur \u00bb, a indiqu\u00e9 le Quai d’Orsay \u00e0 l’AFP, sans d\u00e9tailler les faits reproch\u00e9s au diplomate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
L’affaire a \u00e9t\u00e9 r\u00e9v\u00e9l\u00e9e par l’hebdomadaire Le Canard encha\u00een\u00e9, qui a publi\u00e9 le 12 ao\u00fbt une enqu\u00eate sur le sujet. Selon le journal, Bruno Foucher aurait re\u00e7u dans ses appartements priv\u00e9s, au sein de la r\u00e9sidence de France \u00e0 Bangui, une trentaine de jeunes femmes entre janvier 2024 et mars 2026, des visites qui auraient fini par inqui\u00e9ter les services charg\u00e9s de la protection de la r\u00e9sidence. Une inspection administrative aurait ensuite \u00e9t\u00e9 diligent\u00e9e en avril. Le Canard encha\u00een\u00e9 affirme que l’ambassadeur a reconnu avoir eu des relations sexuelles avec deux jeunes femmes ; ces \u00e9l\u00e9ments, rapport\u00e9s par la presse, n’ont pas \u00e9t\u00e9 d\u00e9taill\u00e9s par le minist\u00e8re dans sa communication officielle et devront \u00eatre recoup\u00e9s avant toute publication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Une affaire aux implications diplomatiques<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Au-del\u00e0 de la question disciplinaire, l’\u00e9pisode intervient \u00e0 un moment sensible pour les relations entre Paris et Bangui. La Centrafrique s’est rapproch\u00e9e ces derni\u00e8res ann\u00e9es de Moscou, la Russie disposant d’une pr\u00e9sence s\u00e9curitaire significative dans le pays, associ\u00e9e notamment \u00e0 la protection du pr\u00e9sident Faustin-Archange Touad\u00e9ra, tandis que l’influence fran\u00e7aise reculait dans plusieurs pays d’Afrique francophone. Un d\u00e9but de r\u00e9chauffement entre les deux pays s’observe toutefois depuis 2024 : en mars, le ministre fran\u00e7ais des Affaires \u00e9trang\u00e8res Jean-No\u00ebl Barrot s’\u00e9tait rendu \u00e0 Bangui, \u00e9voquant une \u00ab restauration compl\u00e8te des relations \u00bb, une premi\u00e8re visite fran\u00e7aise de ce niveau depuis 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Les sanctions disciplinaires envisageables vont du simple bl\u00e2me \u00e0 des mesures plus lourdes, pouvant aller jusqu’\u00e0 la r\u00e9vocation de la fonction publique, selon les faits qui seront retenus \u00e0 l’issue de la proc\u00e9dure. Aucune d\u00e9cision d\u00e9finitive n’a \u00e9t\u00e9 annonc\u00e9e \u00e0 ce stade. Le minist\u00e8re fran\u00e7ais n’a pas pr\u00e9cis\u00e9 de calendrier pour la conclusion de cette proc\u00e9dure disciplinaire.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
