Disciplinary investigation of French ambassador to CAR
Overview
The French Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs has initiated disciplinary proceedings against Bruno Foucher, the French ambassador to the Central African Republic. The investigation follows an administrative inspection conducted in Bangui regarding the ambassador’s conduct at his official residence between January 2024 and March 2026.
Reports indicate that Foucher allegedly hosted approximately 30 young women at his private residence, with some reportedly staying overnight. Security services flagged these activities as a potential security breach. Foucher has reportedly admitted to having sexual relations with two of the women.
The disciplinary process may result in sanctions ranging from a formal reprimand to dismissal from the civil service or forced retirement. This scandal emerges during a sensitive diplomatic period as France seeks to maintain influence in the region.
