Is France or the US going to cry human rights over this?

Wonder what thoughts will be running through Compaoré’s mind as he faces the just consequences of his actions.

He isnt facing any consequences, read the article. He has been sentenced in absentia, Compaore is free and well in Cote d’Ivoire. I doubt they will extradite him. Still, this is good news.
