  • Ibrahim Boubacar Keïta
    Ibrahim Boubacar Keïta Malí, Presidente de la República (2013-2020); primer ministro (1994-2000) Duración del mandato: 04 de Septiembre de 2013 - de de Nacimiento: Koutiala, región de Sikasso, 29 de Enero de 1945 Partido político: Reagrupamiento por Malí (RPM); anteriormente, del ADEMA-PASJ Profesión : Politólogo y consultor Resumen Las elecciones celebradas en Malí en julio y agosto de 2013, tras año y medio de gravísima crisis nacional, sentaron en la Presidencia de la República a Ibrahim Boubacar Keïta, veterano dirigente político que ya había intentado ganar el mandato en las votaciones de 2002 y 2007. El respetado Keïta, un experto en cuestiones del desarrollo y con buenas conexiones en el exterior, se distinguió en la oposición a la dictadura de Moussa Traoré (1968-1991) y luego fue uno de los pilares de la democracia maliense, a la que sirvió como cofundador del partido ADEMA, primer ministro (1994-2000) con el presidente Alpha Oumar Konaré y jefe de la Asamblea Nacional (2002-2007) con Amadou Toumani Touré. Desde 2001 lidera una formación, el RPM, orientada al centro-izquierda. A los ojos de la comunidad internacional y de la mayoría de sus paisanos, Keïta, llamado habitualmente IBK, con su reputación de hombre firme y a la vez pragmático, es la única figura capaz de asegurar la integridad de este empobrecido Estado del área sahelo-sahariana, que en enero de 2012 vio saltar por los aires dos décadas de estabilidad considerada modélica. La revuelta tuareg -la cuarta o quinta desde la independencia en 1960- en las vastas regiones desérticas del norte, el golpe del capitán Sanogo, que derrocó al presidente Touré, la proclamación por los rebeldes separatistas del Estado Independiente de Azawad y el auge espectacular de la subversión jihadista al socaire de todo lo anterior dibujaron un aciago escenario de guerra civil, usurpación castrense y partición territorial de facto que la intervención internacional por etapas, civil y militar, de los gobiernos de la región, de Francia y de la ONU pudo revertir en buena medida, aunque no del todo.

  • Guide to a Post-Conflict Mali
    c4ads Guide to a Post-Conflict Mali © 2013 Guide to a Post-Conflict Mali 1 Executive Summaryi “The return of stability in northern Mali will depend in reality on all the local populations and their legitimate representatives. It is they who will have to implement the results of the negotiations, as they are the ones who will build confidence and social cohesion at the local level… [whoever] takes power in Mali, you have to know that the task will be very difficult. New priorities will have to be taken into account and addressed in an objective and realistic way.” -Elmehdi Ag Muphtah, Tuareg Activist from Timbuktu In 2012, Mali suffered its worst institutional and security crisis as an independent state. Precipitated by a renewed rebellion led by separatist Tuaregs in the north and a coup d’état in the south, the Malian administration and military were forced to retreat from all of northern Mali. Northern Mali is an area the size of France and is home to a unique combination of ethnic groups, cultures, and languages. It suffers from banditry and organized crime and is heavily dependent on foreign aid. The Tuareg separatist movement, the National Movement for the Liberation of Azawad (MNLA), allied with al-Qaeda linked militants in 2012 to take over the three major regions in the north: Timbuktu, Gao, and Kidal. Shortly after the seizure of these regions, the Islamists sidelined the MNLA and imposed varying degrees of theocratic governance, including Sharia law, on local populations. Following the Islamists’ progression further south, the French government decided to intervene in January 2013 with 4,000 combat troops who, along with Malian troops and a coalition of African forces, reconquered the north and dispelled the terrorists from major cities.
