The African Union has suspended Guinea-Bissau following a military coup, emphasizing its zero tolerance for unconstitutional changes. On Friday, the AU Peace and Security Council adopted a resolution to suspend Guinea-Bissau from all Union activities until constitutional order is restored. The country, one of the world's poorest, has faced repeated coups since gaining independence from Portugal over 50 years ago. The West African regional bloc, ECOWAS, also suspended Guinea-Bissau on Thursday. The military takeover occurred after disputed elections on Sunday. The military has inaugurated Gen. Horta Inta-a as head of the government for a one-year transition.

Soldiers in Guinea-Bissau have announced a new junta leader for the country, cementing a forceful takeover of power that began days after the country’s presidential election. The military high command said Thursday it has inaugurated Gen. Horta Inta-A as the head of the military government. The political opposition in Guinea-Bissau has accused deposed President Umaro Sissoco Embaló of staging the coup to avoid defeat in Sunday's presidential election. The Associated Press has not independently verifed the claims. The coup is the latest in a surge of coups in West Africa where democracy has recently been challenged by disputed elections that analysts say could embolden militaries.

#Putin goes to the parade. Only #Embalo is nearby.
Apparently, according to the history of #Putin and #Medinsky, their ally in the war was not the #USA and #Britain, but #Guinea_Bissau, created in 1973.
What a shame, what a mockery of those who fought and died.
