Hedi Majdoub, the interior minister, justified the decision on security grounds and that the Tahrir Party represented a threat to stability and order. The Tahrir Party appealed the decision of the governor of Tunis at the Administrative Court, which ruled in favour of the party on the grounds that Hizb-ut-Tahrir is operating legally having been officially recognised in June 2012. Despite the court\u2019s decision security forces locked the Palais des Congr\u00e8s building where the rally was due to be held, rounded up leaders of the party who were en-route to Tunis, while coaches bringing the party\u2019s militants and sympathisers from other towns were prevented from reaching Tunis. Following a string of condemnations of the authorities\u2019 decision Majdoub had to take to the airwaves and justify his decision by the state of emergency in place, stating that Tahrir\u2019s leaflets and posters distributed ahead of the party\u2019s rally represented a threat to order. A number of political parties including the Congress on the Republican Party, Moncef Marzouki\u2019s Tounes al-Irada, Riad Chehibi of the National Construction Party expressed solidarity with Tahrir. Some observers pointed to the double-standards in this case in that just a week earlier Marzouki\u2019s party had held a rally in the same facility. Besides, observers explained that Ennahdha held its 10th congress three weeks earlier in the same facility with over ten thousand participants, while the Tahrir Party would at best attract one thousand.<\/p>\n<p>This episode reminded Tunisians of the Ansar al-Sharia\u2019s standoff with the authorities on holding its rally in spring 2013. Critics of the Tahrir Party consider that the party\u2019s manifesto, which calls for the restoration of the Caliphate, is anti-constitutional; and that the party does not recognise the Tunisian state nor the nation-state notion. Besides, they think the party is using the democratic framework as a tool to establish its project which, they believe, is a total negation of the values of democracy. Redha Belhaj, leader of the Tahrir Party, responds by saying that his party was officially recognised in 2012 and that there is no evidence that the party has incited violence nor been involved in it. He added that by holding its annual congress the party is complying to the laws regulating parties; and as for the restoration of the Caliphate the party considers that it was clearly stated in the documents it submitted when it sought official recognition from the authorities. Opponents of the party find this argument very light if not ironic. They ask how would a party that does not recognise the rules of the game of democracy, and whose cornerstone philosophy considers Muslim nation-states and Arab post-independence regimes mere forms of neo-colonialism, would seek an appeal at a court of a state the party does not even recognise? The party considers that there is no contradiction in its political program. It argues that while some parties call for the union of Maghreb states, or Arab states (Arab League), or Muslim states (Organisation of Islamic Cooperation), the Tahrir Party strives for the restoration of the Caliphate, just as Europeans strive to construct the European Union. Belhaj argued in the media that it is the party\u2019s criticism of the neo-liberal economic model and opposition to the imposition of Western democracy values on Tunisians that is at the heart of the matter and why some secularists, with the help of so-called Muslim democrats, to use the party\u2019s words, plot to ban the party. The debate goes on. However, unlike Ansar al-Sharia the leadership of the Tahrir Party is unlikely to escalate tensions, especially now that it is Ramadan. Redha Belhhaj explained that the event gave more media exposure to his party.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, some politicians and analysts have warned that there is real threat for the fragile political transition in Tunisia. The issue of the Tahrir Party is the elephant in the room and it should be resolved. Some politicians and public opinion figures call for the banning of the party, but that is unlikely to resolve the issue. The party\u2019s Tunisian branch was established in 1974, forty years ago. Analysts consider the party very unlikely to resort to violence if banned, but that should not be an incentive to ban it. Tahrir does have some following and a constituency that some analysts expect it to grow, especially if Tahrir manages to capitalise on the disenfranchised Ennahdha youth base.<\/p>\n<p><em>Links for more information:<\/em><br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mosaiquefm.net\/fr\/actualite-politique-tunisie\/16758\/h-mejdoub-hizb-ut-tahrir-presente-une-menace-pour-la-tunisie.html\" class=\"xl\" dir=\"auto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">H mejdoub hizb ut tahrir presente une menace pour la <span class=\"xl__end\">tunisie<span class=\"xl__ico\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> (site externe, s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)<\/span><\/a><span class=\"xl-src\"> \u00b7 Mosa\u00efque FM<\/span><br><a href=\"http:\/\/kapitalis.com\/tunisie\/2016\/06\/04\/congres-de-hizb-ettahrir-ridha-belhaj-empeche-de-rejoindre-tunis\/\" class=\"xl\" dir=\"auto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Congres de hizb ettahrir ridha belhaj empeche de rejoindre <span class=\"xl__end\">tunis<span class=\"xl__ico\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> (site externe, s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)<\/span><\/a><span class=\"xl-src\"> \u00b7 Kapitalis<\/span><br><a href=\"http:\/\/zoomtunisia.tn\/article\/top\/36298.html\" class=\"xl\" dir=\"auto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"xl__end\">zoomtunisia.tn<span class=\"xl__ico\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> (site externe, s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)<\/span><\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/aB41soMgqRA?list=PLGRe3x42nK_qxUG5MXWKLOnoRuoDfcXJB\" class=\"xl\" dir=\"auto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Vid\u00e9o sur <span class=\"xl__end\">YouTube<span class=\"xl__ico\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> (site externe, s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #902323;\"><strong>TRANSITION AND POLITICAL PARTICIPATION \/ TRANSITION ET PARTICIPATION POLITIQUE<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Egypt, 3-12.06.2016: New Top Corruption Watchdog came from the State Security Prosecution<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Egypt\u2019s parliament approved Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi\u2019s decision in March to appoint former prosecutor Hisham Badawi as new chairman of the Central Auditing Agency (CAO), the country\u2019s top corruption watchdog, after previous chairman Hisham Geneina was fired and charged with spreading \u00ab\u00a0false news.\u00a0\u00bb Under Mubarak, Badawy has held previous leadership positions, among them a senior prosecutor at the supreme state security prosecution (SSI). The SSI was the main security and intelligence apparatus of Egypt\u2019s Ministry of Interior. It focused on monitoring Islamists and controlling opposition groups, both armed groups and those engaged in peaceful opposition to the government. Many Human Rights organization accused the SSI of having a longstanding and well-documented record of engaging in arbitrary arrests, torture and other ill-treatment of detainees. Geneina was sacked after being criticized by the country\u2019s senior officials as well as pro-government media for his comments about widespread corruption in the government. Geneina is accused of \u00ab\u00a0spreading false news in order to disturb public order\u00a0\u00bb over his report claiming that theft by public officials has cost the treasury EGP 600 billion (approx. USD 68 billion) since 2012. Pro-government media accused Geneina of being an Islamist because was appointed by Sisi\u2019s predecessor, Mohamed Morsi of the Muslim Brotherhood. Following Geneina\u2019s statements in December 2015, Sisi ordered that a fact-finding committee be formed to probe the corruption allegations. The committee had concluded that the then top auditor\u2019s statements and the CAO\u2019s study were \u00ab\u00a0inaccurate\u00a0\u00bb, \u00ab\u00a0exaggerated\u00a0\u00bb and lacked \u00ab\u00a0credibility\u00a0\u00bb. After his detention, Geneina initially refused to pay bail because he does not believe he had committed a crime. But after one of his daughters was rushed to hospital over news of her father\u2019s detention, his family moved to pay the bail of EGP 10,000 (approx. $1,130). Since the ouster of Morsi, the Supreme Judicial Council in Egypt has forced many Egyptian judges into retirement for their opposition to the ouster of former President Morsi by Sisi in 2013. Thousands of anti-government protesters have been sentenced to jail by civilian and military courts in Egypt.<\/p>\n<p><em>Links for more information:<\/em><br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/us-egypt-corruption-idUSKCN0YY0KD\" class=\"xl\" dir=\"auto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Us egypt <span class=\"xl__end\">corruption<span class=\"xl__ico\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> (site externe, s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)<\/span><\/a><span class=\"xl-src\"> \u00b7 Reuters<\/span><br><a href=\"http:\/\/english.ahram.org.eg\/NewsContent\/1\/0\/219225\/Egypt\/0\/Egypts-former-top-auditor-released-on-bail-ahead-o.aspx\" class=\"xl\" dir=\"auto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Egypts former top auditor released on bail ahead <span class=\"xl__end\">o<span class=\"xl__ico\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> (site externe, s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)<\/span><\/a><span class=\"xl-src\"> \u00b7 Ahram Online<\/span><br><a href=\"http:\/\/english.ahram.org.eg\/NewsContent\/1\/64\/222831\/Egypt\/Politics-\/Egypt%E2%80%99s-parliament-approves-Hesham-Badawi-as-count.aspx\" class=\"xl\" dir=\"auto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Egypt\u2019s parliament approves Hesham Badawi as <span class=\"xl__end\">count<span class=\"xl__ico\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> (site externe, s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)<\/span><\/a><span class=\"xl-src\"> \u00b7 Ahram Online<\/span><br><a href=\"http:\/\/en.aswatmasriya.com\/news\/details\/17110\" class=\"xl\" dir=\"auto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"xl__end\">en.aswatmasriya.com<span class=\"xl__ico\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> (site externe, s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)<\/span><\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrw.org\/reports\/2007\/egypt1207\/3.htm\" class=\"xl\" dir=\"auto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Human Rights <span class=\"xl__end\">Watch<span class=\"xl__ico\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> (site externe, s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)<\/span><\/a><br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.presstv.com\/Detail\/2016\/03\/29\/458058\/Egypt-Sisi-Hesham-Geneina\" class=\"xl\" dir=\"auto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Egypt Sisi Hesham <span class=\"xl__end\">Geneina<span class=\"xl__ico\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> (site externe, s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)<\/span><\/a><span class=\"xl-src\"> \u00b7 presstv.com<\/span><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/world\/us-embassy-cables-documents\/187359\" class=\"xl\" dir=\"auto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Us embassy cables <span class=\"xl__end\">documents<span class=\"xl__ico\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> (site externe, s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)<\/span><\/a><span class=\"xl-src\"> \u00b7 The Guardian<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Mauritanie, 11.06.2016: jusqu\u2019o\u00f9 ira la fronde des s\u00e9nateurs ?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Les membres du S\u00e9nat mauritanien ont d\u00e9cid\u00e9, depuis le 15 mai 2016, de ne plus si\u00e9ger, bloquant ainsi le vote des lois pass\u00e9es \u00e0 l\u2019Assembl\u00e9e nationale.

La loi interdisait les associations politiques \u00e0 agenda sectaire ainsi que le recours aux tribunes religieuses pour promouvoir des id\u00e9es politiques. Juges, diplomates et personnels s\u00e9curitaires et militaires s\u2019\u00e9taient d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu alors interdire l\u2019adh\u00e9sion \u00e0 toute association politique. Cependant, cette loi ne paraissait pas faire la s\u00e9paration entre la religion et la politique de fa\u00e7on suffisamment claire pour les partisans des amendements. Les nouveaux amendements incluent ainsi l\u2019interdiction d\u2019\u00eatre adh\u00e9rant \u00e0 une association politique et d\u2019avoir simultan\u00e9ment un engagement dans des discours ou pr\u00eaches \u00e0 teneur religieuse, cela m\u00eame si ce dernier engagement n\u2019engendre aucune r\u00e9mun\u00e9ration. \u00ab Under no circumstances can anyone combine religious preaching and membership in a political society. \u00bb<\/p>\n<p>Les l\u00e9gislateurs qui ont soutenu la motion affirment que ces amendements permettront qu\u2019aucune action politique ne soit recouverte d\u2019une dimension religieuse et que les actions religieuses ne soient pas politis\u00e9es. Ils affirment que la s\u00e9paration entre religion et politique est importante et que religion et politique doivent avoir leurs propres pr\u00e9rogatives s\u00e9par\u00e9ment.

En effet, alors que la campagne pour le Brexit est en cours au Royaume-Unis et que les attentats terroristes ont \u00e0 nouveau marqu\u00e9 l\u2019actualit\u00e9 mondiale, il semblerait que l\u2019avenir de cet accord ne soit plus la priorit\u00e9 europ\u00e9enne num\u00e9ro un. Or, selon Gerald Knaus, Directeur de l\u2019Initiative de Stabilisation Europ\u00e9enne (ESI) bas\u00e9e \u00e0 Berlin, c\u2019est la cr\u00e9dibilit\u00e9 m\u00eame de l\u2019Europe qui est en jeu. En effet selon lui le silence m\u00e9diatique autour du futur de l\u2019accord est une mauvaise strat\u00e9gie europ\u00e9enne qui ne fait qu\u2019aggraver la situation, d\u00e9j\u00e0 dramatique, v\u00e9cue par les r\u00e9fugi\u00e9s mais \u00e9galement pour la Gr\u00e8ce et l\u2019Italie, des pays europ\u00e9ens semblant \u00eatre toujours livr\u00e9s \u00e0 eux m\u00eame.<\/p>\n<p>Gerald Knaus recommande donc de mettre en place un syst\u00e8me transparent, notamment au niveau du nombre de r\u00e9allocations et autres donn\u00e9es relatives aux demandeurs d\u2019asile, au sein duquel une coalition d\u2019\u00e9tats europ\u00e9ens \u2013 par exemple l\u2019Allemagne et les Pays Bas \u2013 pourrait prendre la direction des affaires vis-\u00e0-vis, justement, de la r\u00e9allocation des r\u00e9fugi\u00e9s venant de Turquie. Il faudrait \u00e9galement selon lui mettre en place une mission europ\u00e9enne de soutien (EU Asylum Support Mission) afin, entre autres, de soutenir les \u00eeles grecques, et enfin dessiner des lignes rouges, bien d\u00e9finies, en mati\u00e8re de droits humains et libert\u00e9s individuelles. C\u2019est en effet la question des droits de l\u2019homme qui freine actuellement la mise en \u0153uvre de l\u2019accord, car le Turquie ne remplirait pas ce crit\u00e8re, n\u00e9cessaire \u00e0 son admission au sein de l\u2019Union Europ\u00e9enne, et une condition stipul\u00e9e pour la lib\u00e9ralisation de l\u2019octroi de visas pour voyage dans les pays europ\u00e9ens. Gerald Knaus pr\u00e9conise donc que, si dans les deux ans ces directives ne sont pas respect\u00e9s par la Turquie, les fonds IPA (Instrument for Pre-Accession Assistance) devraient \u00eatre suspendus pendant un an.<\/p>\n<p>Selon James Traub, journaliste et auteur de l\u2019article \u00ab If the Refugee Deal Crumbles, There Will Be Hell to Pay \u00bb, paru dans le journal Foreign Policy le 7 juin dernier, si l\u2019accord profite \u00e0 l\u2019Europe et aux dirigeants europ\u00e9ens sans que les r\u00e9fugi\u00e9s n\u2019en b\u00e9n\u00e9ficient, alors le deal aura m\u00e9rit\u00e9 toutes les critiques dont il est la cible depuis sa conclusion. Le silence de l\u2019Union Europ\u00e9enne et son immobilisme apparent vis-\u00e0-vis de la mise en \u0153uvre de l\u2019accord, ne fait qu\u2019aggraver la situation des r\u00e9fugi\u00e9s, particuli\u00e8rement en Gr\u00e8ce o\u00f9 ils sont actuellement 55\u2019000 \u00e0 ne pas savoir quel sort leur est r\u00e9serv\u00e9. Cela nourrit aussi certaines rumeurs comme l\u2019a pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 r\u00e9cemment le journal en ligne Middle East Eye dans son article \u00ab Turkey visa move suggested by British diplomat: Reports\u00a0\u00bb.<\/p>\n<p>Enfin, alors que le Haut-commissariat des Nations Unis pour les r\u00e9fugi\u00e9s (UNHCR) annon\u00e7ait le 6 juin dernier que depuis 2014, plus de 10\u2019000 migrants avaient perdu la vie en mer m\u00e9diterran\u00e9e, la commission europ\u00e9enne pr\u00e9senta son nouveau plan migratoire. Ce plan pr\u00e9voit notamment une aide financi\u00e8re au pays d\u2019Afrique du Nord et du Proche-Orient, dans l\u2019optique que ces derniers gardent les migrants sur leur territoire.

The WSJ added that it learned from unnamed U.S. defense officials that the Pentagon\u2019s move \u00ab\u00a0to restructure the way it fights Islamic State and other terror threats \u2026 is designed to modernize the U.S. fighting effort and to better coordinate limited resources, including drones, intelligence, troops and funding.\u00a0\u00bb The officials also noted that \u00ab\u00a0the new approach also reflects a recognition that the long-term challenge posed by Islamic State and other networks are global and not well-suited to the geographical boundaries defined by the Pentagon and its regional combatant commands.\u00a0\u00bb Meanwhile, Reuter\u2019s Jeff Mason reported from Washington that the Obama administration is not pursuing the use of an executive order to shut the Guantanamo Bay military prison after officials concluded that it would not be a viable strategy. The report added that this conclusion \u00ab\u00a0narrows the already slim chances that President Barack Obama can fulfill his pledge to close the notorious offshore prison before leaving office in January.\u00a0\u00bb The Guantanamo military prison was part of the US war on terrorism and has been used to house terrorism suspects since it was set up in 2001 following the Sept. 11 attacks on New York and Washington. According to the Watson Institute for International and Public Affairs at Brown University, the biggest costs in the war on terror come from foreign wars. Between late 2001 and 2014, the U.S. government spent roughly $2.6 trillion in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Iraq\u2014not just for warfare but also for reconstruction, foreign aid, and health care for veterans.<\/p>\n<p><em>Links for more information:<\/em><br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/penagon-shifts-command-structure-for-terror-fight-1465433733\" class=\"xl\" dir=\"auto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Penagon shifts command structure for terror <span class=\"xl__end\">fight<span class=\"xl__ico\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> (site externe, s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)<\/span><\/a><span class=\"xl-src\"> \u00b7 wsj.com<\/span><br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/national-security\/2016\/06\/10\/report-pentagon-to-restructure-war-on-terror\/\" class=\"xl\" dir=\"auto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Report pentagon to restructure war on <span class=\"xl__end\">terror<span class=\"xl__ico\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> (site externe, s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)<\/span><\/a><span class=\"xl-src\"> \u00b7 breitbart.com<\/span><br><a href=\"http:\/\/reason.com\/archives\/2016\/05\/22\/the-4-trillion-war-on-terror\" class=\"xl\" dir=\"auto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The 4 trillion war on <span class=\"xl__end\">terror<span class=\"xl__ico\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> (site externe, s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)<\/span><\/a><span class=\"xl-src\"> \u00b7 reason.com<\/span><br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/us-usa-guantanamo-idUSKCN0YZ11V\" class=\"xl\" dir=\"auto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Us usa <span class=\"xl__end\">guantanamo<span class=\"xl__ico\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> (site externe, s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)<\/span><\/a><span class=\"xl-src\"> \u00b7 Reuters<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Niger, 05.06.2016: Attaques meurtri\u00e8res de Boko Haram dans la r\u00e9gion de Diffa.

Soixante-sept militaires ont \u00e9galement \u00e9t\u00e9 bless\u00e9s. Selon un communiqu\u00e9 du minist\u00e8re de la d\u00e9fence, des centaines d\u2019assaillants du groupe terroriste Boko Haram auraient attaqu\u00e9 le poste militaire de reconnaissance de Bosso.<\/p>\n<p>Selon des t\u00e9moins sur place, les assaillants sont arriv\u00e9s au cr\u00e9puscule \u00e0 bord de voitures lourdement arm\u00e9s et au cri de \u00ab\u00a0Allahou Akbar\u00a0\u00bb [Dieu est grand]. Selon Elhaj Aboubacar, homme politique et r\u00e9sident de Bosso, \u00ab ils ont beaucoup tir\u00e9 et br\u00fbl\u00e9 plusieurs endroits de Bosso \u00bb. Enfin, selon M. Aboubacar, ex-d\u00e9put\u00e9 : \u00ab nous ne savons pas o\u00f9 sont pass\u00e9s nos militaires, mais ce qui est s\u00fbr [c\u2019est que] Boko Haram a fait tout ce qu\u2019il [avait] \u00e0 faire jusqu\u2019au petit matin \u00bb.<\/p>\n<p>Une source s\u00e9curitaire nig\u00e9rienne a assur\u00e9 que les partisans de Boko Haram ont effectivement pris le contr\u00f4le de la ville, temporairement, mais ils y auraient \u00e9t\u00e9 d\u00e9log\u00e9s.<\/p>\n<p>L\u2019organisation Boko Haram auraient \u00e9galement essuy\u00e9 des pertes. Les chiffres quant \u00e0 ces pertes restent incertains mais il s\u2019agirait du plus lourd bilan inflig\u00e9 par Boko Haram au Niger depuis que ce pays est entr\u00e9 en guerre contre les insurg\u00e9s en f\u00e9vrier 2015. En effet, le 25 avril 2015, les \u00e9l\u00e9ments de Boko Haram avaient an\u00e9anti une position militaire sur le lac Tchad, faisant 74 morts, dont 28 civils. Trente-deux soldats avaient \u00e9galement \u00e9t\u00e9 port\u00e9s disparus.<\/p>\n<p>Deux jours apr\u00e8s la derni\u00e8re attaque, quelque 50 000 personnes ont fui la zone, dans un secteur qui accueillait d\u00e9j\u00e0 de nombreux r\u00e9fugi\u00e9s, victime de Boko Haram. Ainsi, un quart de la population de la zone s\u2019est retrouv\u00e9 dans une situation d\u2019errance sur les routes. Selon Fod\u00e9 Ndiaye, Coordinateur de l\u2019action humanitaire de l\u2019ONU au Niger, \u00ab la plupart de ces d\u00e9plac\u00e9s sont h\u00e9berg\u00e9s dans des familles h\u00f4tes tandis que d\u2019autres se sont install\u00e9s de fa\u00e7on spontan\u00e9e le long de la route nationale, dans des \u00e9difices publics ou dans la brousse \u00bb.<\/p>\n<p>Suite \u00e0 cette \u00e9ni\u00e8me attaque de Boko Haram, le Pr\u00e9sident nig\u00e9rien, M. Youssoufou a effectu\u00e9 une visite de deux jours au Tchad. Avec le Pr\u00e9sident Idriss D\u00e9by Itno, il a \u00e9t\u00e9 convenu une coordination urgente entre les forces de d\u00e9fense des deux pays et celle du Nig\u00e9ria, Cette coordination a pour but de prendre en tenaille les combattants de Boko Haram dans la zone triangulaire de la fronti\u00e8re entre les trois pays (Nigeria, Niger, Tchad). 2000 soldats tchadiens, \u00e9paul\u00e9s par des avions de combat et des chars de combat, ont commenc\u00e9, d\u00e8s le 7 juin 2016, \u00e0 converger vers la zone. Des positions de Boko Haram en territoire nig\u00e9rien et nig\u00e9rian ont \u00e9t\u00e9 la cible de bombardements de l\u2019aviation tchadienne.<\/p>\n<p>Selon le ministre nig\u00e9rien de la d\u00e9fense, cette nouvelle op\u00e9ration conjointe entre les arm\u00e9es des trois pays sera d\u00e9cisive, car elle se poursuivra tant que la menace Boko Haram ne sera pas neutralis\u00e9e de mani\u00e8re d\u00e9finitive et l\u2019organisation an\u00e9antie.<\/p>\n<p><em>Liens pour plus d\u2019informations :<\/em><br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lemonde.fr\/afrique\/article\/2016\/06\/04\/32-militaires-tues-dans-une-attaque-de-boko-haram-au-niger_4935559_3212.html#WTyGxCTJ0i1v1rP7.99\" class=\"xl\" dir=\"auto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Militaires tues dans une attaque de boko haram au <span class=\"xl__end\">niger<span class=\"xl__ico\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> (site externe, s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)<\/span><\/a><span class=\"xl-src\"> \u00b7 Le Monde<\/span><br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lemonde.fr\/afrique\/article\/2016\/06\/12\/au-niger-apres-l-attaque-de-boko-haram-l-urgence-humanitaire_4948728_3212.html#ctcvogXP3zk8XEqi.99\" class=\"xl\" dir=\"auto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Au niger apres l\u2019attaque de boko haram l\u2019urgence <span class=\"xl__end\">humanitaire<span class=\"xl__ico\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> (site externe, s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)<\/span><\/a><span class=\"xl-src\"> \u00b7 Le Monde<\/span><br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jeuneafrique.com\/depeches\/332926\/politique\/nigeria-quatre-femmes-egorgees-attaque-de-boko-haram\/\" class=\"xl\" dir=\"auto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nigeria quatre femmes egorgees attaque de boko <span class=\"xl__end\">haram<span class=\"xl__ico\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> (site externe, s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)<\/span><\/a><span class=\"xl-src\"> \u00b7 Jeune Afrique<\/span><br><a href=\"http:\/\/webdoc.rfi.fr\/niger-nigeria-frontieres-boko-haram-islam-jihadistes-terrorisme-lutte-diffa-refugies-rescapees\/\" class=\"xl\" dir=\"auto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Niger nigeria frontieres boko haram islam jihadistes terrorisme lutte diffa refugies <span class=\"xl__end\">rescapees<span class=\"xl__ico\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> (site externe, s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)<\/span><\/a><span class=\"xl-src\"> \u00b7 RFI<\/span><br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.romandie.com\/news\/Attaques-de-Boko-Haram-le-Tchad-envoie-des-troupes-au-Niger\/710237.rom\" class=\"xl\" dir=\"auto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"xl__end\">romandie.com<span class=\"xl__ico\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> (site externe, s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Mali, 13.06.2016: Attaque contre une position militaire malienne et n\u00e9gociations entre groupes arm\u00e9s au nord et au centre pour le retour de la paix<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Selon des sources militaires, un check-point de l\u2019arm\u00e9e r\u00e9guli\u00e8re malienne install\u00e9 non loin de la localit\u00e9 de d\u2019Abaradiou vers la route de Taoud\u00e9ni (dans la zone de Toumbouctou) a \u00e9t\u00e9 attaqu\u00e9 dans la nuit du 12 au 13 juin 2016 vers 21 h GMT. Alors que les gens \u00e9taient pour la plupart \u00e0 la mosqu\u00e9e, des tirs nourris ont retenti dans le quartier Abaradiou. Selon des sources s\u00e9curitaires, au moins deux soldats maliens ont \u00e9t\u00e9 bless\u00e9s lors de l\u2019attaque qui aurait \u00e9t\u00e9 men\u00e9e par des hommes arm\u00e9s non identifi\u00e9s. Tous les regards se tournent cependant vers les groupes arm\u00e9s qui \u00e9cument la zone.<\/p>\n<p>Cette attaque intervient au moment o\u00f9 le CMA (proche des s\u00e9paratistes) et la Plateforme (jusque-l\u00e0 proche des positions de Bamako), sid\u00e9r\u00e9s par la lenteur de la mise en oeuvre de l\u2019Accord d\u2019Alger semblent amorcer un rapprochement dans leur positions, ce qui inqui\u00e8te Bamako. Durant le week -end, des rumeurs en provenance de Kidal faisaient \u00e9tat d\u2019un regain de tension tr\u00e8s perceptible, notamment au niveau des axes routiers. Des pans de la CMA se seraient retranch\u00e9s dans les confins du massif de Tegharghar (ancien sanctuaire de l\u2019AQMI et d\u2019An\u00e7ar Dine), \u00e9paul\u00e9s par des \u00e9l\u00e9ments venus de Libye. Selon certains dires, en cas de non satisfaction de son exigence, la CMA reprendrait les armes.<\/p>\n<p>Par ailleurs, les observateurs notent la recrudescence, depuis deux mois, d\u2019attaques contre la MINUSMA et les positions de l\u2019arm\u00e9e malienne. Le Commandant de la force internationale d\u00e9ploy\u00e9e sur le terrain d\u00e9plore le manque de renseignement, ce qui d\u00e9note une faiblesse du dispositif mis en place dans l\u2019anticipations des actions des mouvements et des groupes arm\u00e9s.<\/p>\n<p>Enfin, des affrontements entre groupes arm\u00e9s rivaux ont fait ce samedi 11 juin plusieurs morts ainsi que des bless\u00e9s et des prisonniers, selon des sources locales. Cela s\u2019est pass\u00e9 \u00e0 Douentza dans la r\u00e9gion de Gourma.<\/p>\n<p>Une rencontre s\u2019est tenue le dimanche 12 juin 2016 \u00e0 Bamako entre les responsables de ces groupes rivaux, pour tenter de ramener le calme et trouver des solutions. Cette rencontre, qui s\u2019est tenue dans un h\u00f4tel de la capitale malienne, a r\u00e9uni des responsables du Groupe d\u2019autod\u00e9fense des Touareg de la tribu des Imghad et ses alli\u00e9s (Gatia), un groupe qui a attaqu\u00e9 le Ganda Izo, autre mouvement d\u2019autod\u00e9fense du Nord dont des proches assistaient \u00e9galement \u00e0 la r\u00e9union.

The meeting took place in Istanbul, and brought together religious leaders and others in civil society involved in the promotion of inter-communal peace across the region. Participants attended from Bahrain, Iraq, Lebanon Saudi Arabia, Tunisia and Yemen. The meetings were held in a spirit of trust and mutual respect under the Chatham House rule, and this enabled the participants to speak freely of the tensions in their countries, as well as initiatives being undertaken to address sectarian lines of tension. Country-specific discussions were also held, to work on the planning of practical projects aimed at addressing sectarian tensions. These projects will be followed up by participants, and a further workshop will be held later in 2016.<\/p>\n<p>For press reports (in Arabic) on this workshop and related themes, please see:<br><a href=\"http:\/\/mobile.assafir.com\/Article\/175\/497846\" class=\"xl\" dir=\"auto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"xl__end\">mobile.assafir.com<span class=\"xl__ico\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> (site externe, s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)<\/span><\/a><br><a href=\"http:\/\/arabi21.com\/story\/913177\" class=\"xl\" dir=\"auto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u0645\u062a\u0649 \u062a\u062a\u062d\u0642\u0642 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0635\u0627\u0644\u062d\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u062a\u0627\u0631\u064a\u062e\u064a\u0629 \u0628\u064a\u0646 \u0627\u0644\u0633\u0646\u0629 <span class=\"xl__end\">\u0648\u0627\u0644\u0634\u064a\u0639\u0629<span class=\"xl__ico\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> (site externe, s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)<\/span><\/a><span class=\"xl-src\"> \u00b7 Arabi21<\/span><br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.alwasatnews.com\/news\/1121791.html\" class=\"xl\" dir=\"auto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\ufeff\u062f\u0648\u0631 \u0627\u0644\u0642\u0644\u0645 <span class=\"xl__end\">\u0627\u0644\u0635\u062d\u0627\u0641\u064a!<span class=\"xl__ico\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> (site externe, s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)<\/span><\/a><span class=\"xl-src\"> \u00b7 \u0635\u062d\u064a\u0641\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u0648\u0633\u0637 \u0627\u0644\u0628\u062d\u0631\u064a\u0646\u064a\u0629<\/span><\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><em>The views and perspectives contained in the Weekly Update are from individual contributors and external sources, and do not necessarily reflect the opinions or position of the Cordoba Foundation of Geneva.
