    "The Great Game", as it has been called, has been playing out in the region, layering new rivalries and ideological quarrels, onto preexisting post-colonial conflicts that have yet to be resolved. Berbera is again a point of interest. In 2018, the United Arab Emirates put down $450 million to develop Berbera’s port, as part of an effort to counter Qatari, Turkish and Russian influence in the region. A new security competition is underway in the Horn of Africa involving the Gulf stat ...

    Le 3 octobre 2016, la Turquie a déposé une plainte contre le Maroc devant l’Organisation Mondiale du Commerce (OMC) au sujet des mesures antidumping appliquées par le Maroc contre les exportations turques en Acier laminé à chaud.1 Suite à l’échec des consultations entre les deux pays, la Turquie a demandé, le 12 janvier 2017, l’établissement d’un groupe spécial pour examiner la conformité des mesures prises par le Maroc avec le droit de l’OMC. Demande qui marque le passage du litige ...
  • Iran-USA: "Hybrid" Wars Confront « Might Makes Right »

    January 17, 2020
    The drone strike that claimed the life of Iranian general Qasem Soleimani unmasks the limits of so-called "hybrid" – or "asymmetric" – strategies. These low-intensity military operations, conducted through unofficial paramilitary forces, are supposed to allow a weaker state to gain geopolitical advantages without risking an open war with a stronger one. The idea is to gradually accumulate small tactical victories by capitalizing on more powerful states’ lack of appetite for distant ...

    January 17, 2020
    Ce papier tente, aux vues de l’état actuel des relations entre les Etats-Unis et l’Iran et des conjonctures qui traversent la région et le monde d’aujourd’hui, de prospecter les pistes d’évolution de la tension ambiante. S’achemine-t-on vers une guerre ? Quels en seront les acteurs ? Quelle en seraient la nature et les limites et, surtout, quels en seraient les impacts, sur la région et sur le monde ? Les réactions sont jusqu’à présent mitigées et se limitent aux formules diplomati ...

    Les investissements japonais en Afrique sont en plein essor. Ils sont passés de 758 millions de dollars, en 2000, à 7,8 milliards en 2017, fruit de la présence sur le continent de près de 796 entreprises nippones. Troisième puissance économique et deuxième puissance industrielle mondiale, après la Chine et les Etats-Unis, le Japon est le cinquième donateur mondial en matière d’aide bilatérale à l’Afrique. Malgré sa discrétion et la compétition des autres puissances étrangères présen ...

    “The Nightmare we feared has arrived” Death was late because the departure time of the plane was delayed.

    Morocco’s Sovereignty over Natural Resources in Saharan provinces
    Authors
    Matsumoto Shoji
    January 15, 2020
    The challenges against Morocco’s sovereignty over natural resources in Saharan districts will be thoroughly examined and criticized. First, the inaccurate interpretation by the EU court of the phrase “a status separate and distinct from an administering State” in the Declaration on Friendly Relations. Second, the unreasonable concept of a ‘de facto’ administering State in the decisions of the EU courts and the warlike concept of ‘military occupation’ over the territory under ceasefi ...

    January 15, 2020
    La récente déclaration du Secrétaire général de l’Organisation des Nations unies 1 et les relais dans les différents médias qui avancent que la situation au Mali qui se détériore de plus en plus serait presque un euphémisme, tant l’Etat malien souffre depuis 2013 d’un manque de stabilité patent. La perspective d’organisation d’élections législatives en 2020 demeure très incertaine au vu des attaques répétées des groupes terroristes qui, en plus de menacer la vie des Maliens, remette ...

    Once the traditional Western year-end celebrations are concluded, understanding some of the changes that will take place in this new decade of the 21st century become essential. The expression 20/20 is used in ophthalmology to reflect acuity in vision. Perhaps no time in recent history has required more acuity in long term vision and perspective regarding the significant changes to occur in the 21st century. There is no doubt: the 21st century will be the Asian century. The 2020 de ...
