Later, various sultanates claimed present- a regional commander at Fort-Lamy subordinate to Ubangi-Shari.

Failed Coup Attempt in Gabon
CRS INSIGHT Failed Coup Attempt in Gabon January 9, 2019 (IN11013) | Related Authors Tomas F. Husted Alexis Arieff | Tomas F. Husted, Analyst in African Affairs ([email protected], 7-7754) Alexis Arieff, Specialist in African Affairs ([email protected], 7-2459) On January 7, a small group of Gabonese soldiers seized the state broadcasting building in Gabon's capital, Libreville, and declared their intention to overthrow the government of President Ali Bongo Ondimba. Within hours, security forces retook the building and put down the coup attempt. The attempt followed months of political uncertainty after the president (aged 59) suffered a stroke in Saudi Arabia in October 2018; he has since remained outside the country and is currently convalescing in Morocco. Separately, the coup attempt came days after President Trump announced the deployment, beginning on January 2, of "approximately 80" U.S. military personnel to Libreville as a standby force to protect "U.S. citizens, personnel, and diplomatic facilities" in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), should the security situation there deteriorate in the wake of December 2018 elections. Shortly after the coup attempt, a U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM) spokesperson stated that "there is no change in the status" of that deployment, and that U.S. forces were not presently tasked with securing diplomatic assets (or any other mission) in Gabon. An oil-rich former French colony on the geostrategic Gulf of Guinea, Gabon has long been considered a stable—if authoritarian-leaning—country in a tumultuous region. U.S. interests center on Gabon's role in regional conflict resolution, maritime security, and environmental conservation.

MIGRATIONS IN CENTRAL AFRICA: CARACTERISTICS, ISSUES AND ROLES IN THE INTEGRATION AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE COUNTRIES OF THE REGION By B. LUTUTALA Mumpasi Demographer University of Kinshasa Introduction Unlike, for example West Africa, we know little about migration in Central Africa. We could even think, seen the rarity of related studies and policies1 that migration is a marginal phenomenon in this region of Africa. And yet, we know that wars and other political unrests that take place from time to time in the region force the populations in their thousands even in their millions to move inside their countries, or to take refuge in neighboring or faraway countries. In 1994, Wilkinson wrote that "the Great Lakes have been one of the most serious and most complex crises of our time" (Wilkinson, R., in UNHCR, 1997), when he saw a great flood of more than one million Rwandan refugees flock in the small town of Goma in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), in the days following the assassination of the Rwandan President Juvenal Habyarimana and of the Burundi President Cyprien Ntaryamina. Another tent «city», exclusively occupied by these migrants, established itself in the outskirt of Goma. Besides, some of the migrants from Central Africa went through tragic events in their new countries of immigration. Some of them were returned and repatriated to their countries of origin in the most inhuman conditions. In Congo, the migrants from the DRC are considered as pests: it is better to kill a Congolese (from the DRC) than a snake, say the people of this sister country of the DRC.

President Bongo reacted by threatening to retaliate against the Beninese community in Gabon shortly after the meeting of the Council of Foreign tilinisters of the Cr~cnization of African Unity (OAU) in February 1977 at Lo&. In Libreville, itself, verbal threats against our country and its nationals are proliferating. 2. July 1977 - Fourteenth OAU Summit at Libreville.
