French President Emmanuel Macron says that he "hopes to convince" his US counterpart Donald Trump to keep American troops in Africa, after a top general said the Pentagon was weighing a troop reduction.

"If the Americans decided to leave Africa, this would be very bad news for us," Macron said after a summit meeting with leaders of five Sahel nations fighting a mounting Islamist insurgency.
