    In a more chaotic and critical Mediterranean security environment that is facing a huge geopolitical change, the NATO alliance has found itself challenged by rival states across the spectrum of conflict.

    Les conflits ouverts qui secouent le continent africain trouvent leur source essentiellement dans la lutte pour le pouvoir, l’appropriation des ressources naturelles ou la problématique des frontières.
