La verticale Afrique - Méditerranée - Europe dans le Triangle Stratégique Afrique - Europe -Amérique Latine
Authors
Fathallah Oualalou
May 28, 2018
Related topics: 

Pour reprendre l’initiative et se doter d’un nouveau souffle, l’Europe s’ouvrir sur ses proximités : proximité géographique avec la Méditerranée et l’Afrique, et la proximité culturelle avec l’Amérique Latine. C’est ainsi que peut s’élaborer un nouveau triangle stratégique, au sein duquel le Maroc, grâce à son statut avancé dans l’espace euro-méditerranéen et à son ouverture sur l’espace sub-saharien, a un rôle tout particulier à jouer. C’est ce que nous explique notre senior fellow Fethallah Oualalou dans cette note, qui reprend son intervention lors de la 7ème rencontre sur le triangle stratégique Amérique latine/Caraïbes-Europe-Afrique organisée par l’IPDAL à Lisbonne.

    The Lake Chad Basin is home to over 3 million internally displaced persons (IDPs),[1] a number expected to rise due to the recent flooding affecting Chad, Niger, Nigeria, and Cameroon since August. While the primary cause of displacement remains the ongoing violent conflict in the region, the climate crisis is exacerbating existing vulnerabilities and, in the short-term, spurring new waves of displacement in areas already hosting large populations displaced by conflict and insecurit ...

    November 19, 2024
    This essay examines the implications of the new Trump administration’s ‘America First’ approach for multilateralism, particularly in the context of the Bretton Woods institutions and the World Trade Organization (WTO), and its consequences for the New South. The first Trump administration’s selective multilateralism, marked by the prioritization of U.S. interests over global cooperation, contributed to a more fragmented global order. This was seen in the administration’s withdrawal ...

    November 14, 2024
    Developments in Venezuela since the presidential election of July 28, 2024, epitomize the fault lines of contemporary world politics. The elections failed to clarify the political situation in Venezuela. Instead, they complicated it. The official electoral authority declared Mr. Nicolás Maduro the official winner of the elections, with a narrow but comfortable margin, while the opposition also declared its candidate, Mr. Edmundo González Urrutia, the legitimate winner of the elect ...
