    No idea, it's specifically unit trained for the colonial crackdowns. I think Mali and Burkina Faso statements basically means that the small scale intervention is hardly possible, so it will be either open war, and for that France would need USA and ECOWAS, or the clandestine spec ops countercoup/civil war attempt.
