Françafrique
After the Cold War , the "Françafrique" regime has weakened over the years due to France's budgetary constraints , greater public scrutiny at home , the deaths of pivotal "Françafrique" actors ( Foccart , Mitterrand , Pasqua and members of Elf ) and the integration of France into the European Union . Economic liberalisation , high indebtedness and political instability of the former African colonies have reduced their political and economic attractiveness , leading France to adopt a more pragmatic and hard-nose approach to its African relations .
