    When Argentina’s President Alberto Fernandez tested positive for COVID-19 on his 62nd birthday, April 2, 2021 it might not have seemed unusual when there have been almost 200 million cases worldwide.

    Le 24 août 2021, le Ministre algérien des Affaires étrangères a convoqué une conférence de presse pour annoncer la rupture des relations diplomatiques avec le Maroc, avec effet immédiat. Cette décision, d’essence unilatérale, diffère de la rupture qui découle d’une décision adoptée par le Conseil de sécurité dans le cadre du Chapitre 7 de la Charte des Nations unies. En effet, dans le cas des pays qui font l’objet de sanctions, comme l’Afrique du Sud du temps de l’apartheid, le Cons ...

    La victoire éclair des Talibans en Afghanistan remet sur le devant de la scène un projet énergétique dont il est question depuis plus de 20 ans. Il s’agit d’un gazoduc qui relierait le Turkménistan au Pakistan et à l’Inde, en passant par l’Afghanistan. Le nom de ce projet est TAPI pour Turkménistan, Afghanistan, Pakistan et Inde. La logique derrière ce projet est très simple. Le Turkménistan a beaucoup de gaz naturel, puisque ce pays occupe le quatrième rang parmi les détenteurs de ...

Hopefully, both sides can discuss and adopt the strategy at the next EU-Africa-Summit. The present study deals precisely with the third aspect, i.e. ec ...

The escalating conflict has led to the death and displacement of thousands of civilians, raised ethnic tensions in Ethiopia, and caused a food crisis that could lead to widespread famine. Much can be said about this conflict—how it revolves around models of governance and conflicting visions of self-determination, and how its impact will be felt across the region. Here ...
