    The unshaven man, who did not let go of his Kalashnikoff while we talked, had been wounded in battles with Israeli troops, and was now hiding in the land that those troops had occupied—the Jordan Valley. Yasser Arafat, whom I met for the first time in the spring of 1968 at his secret base, was then still known as Abu Ammar, willing to sacrifice his life for the liberation of his people dispersed by around the world, particularly in neighboring Arab nations. The 1968 interview, Arafa ...

    Prior to the colonial era, money issuance in West Africa depended on slave trade. With the advent of the colonialrule, silver coins were imported then progressively imposed as a tool of coercion. The post-colonial trajectory wasdifferent for former British and French colonies. While the former regained their monetary sovereignty, the lattercontinued under a monetary union under the auspices of France. The proposal of the Eco as a single currency forECOWAS is therefore a whole new st ...

    Russia is trying to gain a foothold in Africa via subversion and disinformation tactics. Under the leadership of President Vladimir Putin, Russia increased its interference in Africa by sending mercenaries to show force as opposed to making direct security interventions. At the same time, Russia struck arms deals and plans to expand its military presence. Russia also used social and broadcast media to support national leaders and other actors involved in conflicts. Although Russia’s ...

    At the beginning of June, officers from U.S. Customs and Border Protection, usually active on America’s periphery, were deployed to Washington D.C., where President Donald Trump had sighted an internal threat posed by “anarchists, agitators, looters, or lowlifes”. In reality, American citizens were protesting, mostly peacefully, against police brutality, and the killings of African-Americans by cops. Nevertheless, the urban revolt seemed grave enough for the Trump Administration to ...

    La jeune démocratie tunisienne a réussi le double pari de juguler la propagation de la pandémie de la Covid-19, tout en s’érigeant en un modèle régional de gestion de la crise sanitaire. Désormais, le pays doit remédier aux chocs économiques engendrés par la pandémie et pourrait connaitre la pire récession de son histoire. Dans cette tempête annoncée, l’accélération de la transition économique s’avère nécessaire, non seulement pour refonder le système économique, mais aussi pour pré ...

    إن حسن تدبير فترات الاختبارات و المحن و الأزمات كان دوما مصدر السمعة الطيبة دوليا للكيانات الوطنية. إذ أن هذه الأخيرة توظفها في التأقلم مع التحولات التي تتولد عن هذه الفترات الحرجة و تساعدها على المساهمة في كتابة المستقبل. هكذا تمكنت الأقطار انطلاقا من اكتسابها سمعة طيبة في اللحظات الحرجة للعلاقات الدولية و لتطور العولمة، من ترسيخ اشعاعها عالميا و اقليميا و التأثير على تطور الإنسانية، فسمعة البلاد في الفترات الحرجة تعكس مدى فعالية و جودة حكامتها الداخلية; وهي في ذات الوقت عامل فاعل ...

    Au début de la pandémie, les chefs d’Etat faisaient encore confiance à la science et à la médecine pour trouver un remède aussi rapide que le monde digital où nous vivons. Après plusieurs semaines passées, avec le nombre croissant des personnes impactées et des morts cumulés, le sérieux et l’urgence se sont accaparés des politiciens et des preneurs de décisions. Certains pays se sont cachés derrière un jeu de blâme envers la Chine, sachant que cela ne changerait pas la réalité. D’au ...
