When Chirac ran for president in 1981 against Giscard and Mitterrand, he asked Foccart to put him in touch with African heads of state who could help him finance his campaign. The first Chirac-Bongo meeting took place in October 1980 at the Hôtel de Ville in Paris. 28 years later, in 2009, Giscard will say on Europe 1 that the petrodollars of the Gabonese president Omar Bongo arrived at the time in the coffers of the candidate Chirac. And after his victory in the legislative elections of 1986, when Chirac returns to Matignon, he asks Foccart to follow him to counter the African policy of Mitterrand. Another Chirac mentor, Ivorian President Félix Houphouët-Boigny. Often at this time, Chirac goes to Abidjan to consult the "old man". It is also after one of these interviews that he will say one of his biggest blunders. In February 1990, in the middle of a national conference in Benin, he declared in Abidjan, at the microphone of RFI, that multipartism is a "kind of luxury" for African countries .
