    Moroccan Armed Forces in the Face of Geopolitical Mutations

    One of the first sovereign decisions of independent Morocco was to create the Royal Armed Forces (FAR) on 14 May 1956. Since then, the mission of the Moroccan army is consistent with the country's historical continuity shaped by strategic constants, it has however been subject to both conceptual and operational pressures since the late 1990s, as the lines between defense and security have blurred. This paper explores the central issue of adjusting the Royal Armed Forces (FAR) to a r ...

    The global migration problem cannot be wished away; it has to be managed. Morocco provides an example of how responsibility for migration management can be handled by African states. The latest statistics of the European Border and Coast Guard Agency (FRONTEX) identify the Western Mediterranean route from Morocco to Spain as the busiest migratory route into Europe last year, with 57,034 illegal attempts to enter the continent recorded. However, a parallel look at the Moroccan gover ...

    Depuis son indépendance, en 1960, la République centrafricaine n’a connu presque pas de répit, à cause des différents soulèvements, rebellions, coups d’Etat et interventions étrangères. Cet Etat, conçu par le bon vouloir du système colonial, avec des frontières multiples et des richesses immenses, va concentrer l’ensemble des contradictions et points négatifs du continent africain, à savoir la mauvaise gouvernance, avec toutes ses formes et manifestations à l’extrême, et les conflit ...

    Under Invested The Caribbean-African Relationship

    Caribbean and African ties run deep. They are based on a shared history, culture, and sense of a common identity forged by the slave trade which forcibly relocated more than 10 million Africans to the New World, in the process, creating large centres of African Diaspora in the Caribbean and elsewhere. The common historical experiences of slavery and colonialism inspired formation of the Pan-African Movement in the first half of the 1900’s led by the African Diaspora outside of Afric ...

    May 24, 2019
    On the eve of Britain’s exit from the European Union, the country is redefining its international approach. The United Kingdom has already taken action by becoming involved in new economic commitments, new trade agreements in Commonwealth countries but also from a diplomatic point of view in West Africa. While development aid remains a focal point of its intervention in Africa, it risks being undermined by the Brexit and its economic consequences. However, the United Kingdom is now ...

    The escalating China-US trade dispute: economic and geopolitical implications for Sub-Saharan Africa

    The trade tensions between the United States and China will cause only minor immediate damage to their giant economies. However, tariffs have important and diverse effects on individual sectors and cause heightened uncertainty. The main adverse effects on Sub-Saharan Africa will therefore be through global investor confidence, economic growth and commodity prices, and these effects could be severe if the dispute escalates further and endangers the rules-based trading system. The tra ...

    A la question de savoir qui a gagné les élections du 8 mai en Afrique du Sud, une seule réponse s’impose : L’ANC. Cette réponse suppose qu’il y a un perdant et conduit, donc, à une deuxième question : Qui a perdu les élections de Mai 2019 en Afrique du Sud ? Aussi étonnant que cela puisse paraitre, la réponse est, là aussi, l’ANC.  L’ANC a gagné, mais il est toujours mal en point En Effet, le parti cher à Mandela a gagné les élections, mais a perdu en audience et en confiance.

    Riyad et Abou Dhabi s'inquiètent de la crise politique et institutionnelle à Khartoum. Appelant à la "stabilité" et à une "transition pacifique", ils surveillent de très près la situation. Entre temps, la Turquie et le Qatar, qui soutiennent les Frères musulmans, restent en retrait. Le Soudan joue un rôle clé pour Riyad et ses alliés, tant dans la lutte contre les Houthis, au Yémen, que dans leur politique d'endiguement vis-à-vis de l'Iran, principal ennemi de l'Arabie Saoudite au M ...

    A quelques heures des élections générales en Afrique du Sud, je ne peux m’empêcher, comme à mon habitude, de me jeter à l’eau en tentant un pronostic. Je ne pourrais me vanter d’inventer la roue en avançant que le Congrès national africain (ANC) gagnerait ces élections et que le président Cyril Ramaphosa continuerait à présider aux destinées du pays au lendemain du 8 mai prochain. L’issue du match n’étant donc pas une inconnue à prophétiser, je pousse le défi à un pronostic sur le ...
