La sfida è globale e richiede una risposta globale, che deve passare, tra l’altro, attraverso la cooperazione internazionale a tutti i livelli, e in modo particolare a livello regionale. In questo numero vengono illustrate le numerose iniziative di cooperazione di cui la Difesa è promotrice e partner di primo piano, guardando in particolar modo al Mediterraneo e al fianco sud della NATO e dell’Unione Europea. Ad esempio, l’iniziativa 5+5, di cui l’Italia avrà la presidenza per tutto il 2018, è un forum di cooperazione a cui partecipano dieci Paesi del Mediterraneo occidentale (cinque per la sponda nord e cinque per la sponda sud), che hanno individuato diverse aree di interesse comune nel campo della sicurezza e della difesa. Convogliare gli sforzi prodotti a livello regionale nel quadro delle strategie dell’Unione Europea – e anche della NATO – è una delle priorità di azione indicate dal Capo di Stato Maggiore della Difesa in occasione di un simposio tenutosi recentemente a Venezia, sul tema dell’evoluzione della sicurezza europea e la prospettiva regionale. In questo numero viene proposta un’intervista al Generale Graziano, rilasciata a margine di tale convegno, al quale ha partecipato anche il Capo di Stato Maggiore della Difesa austriaca, nel quadro della stretta collaborazione esistente tra i due Paesi. Per completare l’overview sulla cooperazione internazionale nel Mediterraneo, vengono poi passati in rassegna i diversi programmi a cui partecipa la Marina Militare. Ricca è, poi, la consueta parte riservata alle immagini, con un omaggio all’Aeronautica Militare, che compie 95 anni di storia, e due reportage fotografici, dedicati rispettivamente a una esercitazione interforze, condotta nella laguna veneta per testare le procedure d’impiego per l’evacuazione di connazionali da un paese sconvolto da violenze, e alla formazione teorico-pratica sul tema del Diritto Internazionale Umanitario e sui Diritti Umani, svolta in favore dei giovani ufficiali dell’Esercito e dei Carabinieri presso il Centro di Eccellenza per le Unità di Polizia di Stabilità di Vicenza. L’assistenza prestata alle forze di sicurezza afghane nella regione occidentale è invece al centro di un resoconto delle esperienze recenti svolte dal contingente italiano inquadrato in una missione sempre delicata come quella della NATO nel Paese asiatico. Il ruolo internazionale della Difesa emerge anche dalla panoramica sulle missioni di peacekeeping delle Nazioni Unite, alle quali l’Italia ha sempre prestato contributi importanti, sia sul campo che in termini finanziari. La sezione della rivista sulla retrospettiva storica è riservata, in questo numero, a un capitolo doloroso della Grande Guerra, quello degli orfani del Friuli e della Venezia Giulia. Conflitti, religione e fotografia si intrecciano, infine, nella singolare esposizione fotografica attualmente in mostra a Torino, alla quale è dedicata la recensione in chiusura di un numero della rivista straordinariamente ricco di immagini.

The disputed zone is the so-called Libya-Chad borderlands, bounded to the north-east by the east-south-east line of the Anglo-French Conven- tion of 8 September 1919, to the south by the 15" north latitude parallel, to the West by the 24" E meridian and to the east by the 16" E meridian. It covers an area of some 530,000 km' and encompasses the Borkou- Ounianga, the Ennedi and the Tibesti, what Chad refers to as the BET (excluding northern Kanem). The population of the area is under 100,000, compared with Chad's population of some 5.4 million, including the BET. The area contains 2 per cent of Chadian local population and it is a poor, bare and inhospitable region. In spite of the desertic nature of this zone, that we shall for conven- terra nullius. ience continue to cal1 the borderlands. it was never a , ouen. to occupation according to international law. The two Parties concur as to that, and echo herein the analogous finding of the Court in the Western Sahara case. The land was occupied by local indigenous tribes, confed- erations of tribes, often organized under the Senoussi Order. Further- more, it was under the distant and laxly exercised sovereignty of the Ottoman Empire, which marked its presence by delegation of authority to local people.

It is strange to feel that such an important topic that we all remember happening is already over 7 years old. Therefore, we felt it would be a good time to simulate it and think about the ways it could have gone. As delegates you will each be given characters to play in this crisis. These were real people who made a difference within the actual Civil War and have their own objectives and goals. You are tasked with advancing the goals of your character and making sure that they end up doing well out of this crisis. Every action will have consequences, everything you do will have ramifications, and mistakes can be deadly. Your chairs will be there to help but they will also be representing characters and have their own interests, meaning they may not be fully trustworthy. Behind the scenes you will have a backroom which will interpret your directives and move the plot forward. We will be there to read what you say and put it into action. However, a word to the wise, the way your wish may be interpreted may not be ideal.

The Arabs who have been treated worst of all are the people of Western Sahara, who have had their country stolen out from under them. Morocco has occupied Western Sahara - a former Spanish colony - treated its people barbarously, defied the International Court of Justice and tried to annex the territory for its natural resources. Yet hardly any Arabs or Westerners have ever championed their cause ... 1 INTRODUCTION The current situation in Western Sahara begs the question "what use is it to have the support of the United Nations (hereinafter "U.N.") when powerful countries such as the United States, France, and Spain are either indifferent or actively oppose the Sahrawi's legitimate right to self-deterrnination."2 The decolonization of the Western Sahara has become a permanent fixture on the U.N.'s agenda since 1963 when the General Assembly labeled it as a non-self-governing-territory 1.

THE CHAD-LIBYA WAR OVER THE AOUZOU STRIP In the middle of the Sahara desert lies a narrow area of barren land known as the Aouzou Strip. Sparsely inhabited by a few thousand members of the nomadic Toubou people, the Strip sits on the border between Libya and Chad. The Strip’s dimensions are defined not by nature but by humans: the Strip represents the core area of disagreement between the claims of Libya as to the location of its southern border and the claims of Chad as to the location of its northern border. The Strip has virtually no economic potential to either Chad or Libya, either on its surface or below; nor has either state seen the Strip as having any military or strategic value, given its isolation from population centers and its inhos- pitable climate.

  • The Treaty on Friendship, Partnership and Cooperation Between Italy and Libya: New Prospects for Cooperation in the Mediterranean? 1
    Bulletin of Italian Politics Vol. 1, No. 1, 2009, 125-133 The Treaty on Friendship, Partnership and Cooperation between Italy and Libya: New Prospects for Cooperation in the 1 Mediterranean? Natalino Ronzitti Luiss University and IAI, Rome Abstract: This article reviews the Treaty on Friendship, Partnership and Cooperation between Italy and Libya, signed in August 2008 by Berlusconi and Qaddafi in Benghazi. Putting an end to the disputes related to colonialism – with costs that are not negligible for Italy – the Treaty has contributed to creating a favourable climate for a major improvement in bilateral relations. In addition, the Treaty provides a new frame of reference for cooperation in many sectors. The economic sector is particularly promising since trade relations have always been important and Libyan investments in Italy have increased constantly in recent years. No less important is the part of the Treaty on the fight against illegal immigration, which calls for Libyan coastline patrol by mixed crews and land border satellite surveillance. Keywords: Italy, Libya, Treaty of Benghazi, Colonialism. Introduction On 30 August 2008, Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi flew to Benghazi to sign the Treaty on Friendship, Partnership and Cooperation between Italy and Libya, concluding the long negotiating process that began under previous Italian governments and was accelerated by the current administration. 2 In greeting Colonel Muammar Qaddafi, Berlusconi expressed his regret for the colonial period in very strong terms. In the name of the Italian people, as head of the government, I feel it my duty to apologise and express my sorrow for what happened many years ago and left a scar on many of your families.3 Berlusconi also handed over the statue of the Venus of Cyrene, which was brought to Italy during the colonial period and which the Italian administrative court ruled had to be returned to Libya in a controversial judgment of 2007 (Ronzitti, 2007).

INTRODUCTION 1. Since 1973, Chad and the Libyan Arab Jamahiriya have been disputing the area between them commonly known as the Aouzou Strip. 2. Following the resumption of diplomatic relations between Chad and the Libyan Arab Jamahiriya on 3 October 1988, both States proclaimed their willingness to resolve the dispute over the Aouzou Strip by peaceful means and in accordance with the charters of the United Nations and the Organization of African Unity (OAU). On 31 August 1989, the two Governments signed, in Algiers, the Framework Agreement on the Peaceful Settlement of the Territorial Dispute between the Republic of Chad and the Great Socialist People's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya, 1/ by which, inter alia, the two parties undertook to settle their territorial dispute by all political means, including conciliation, within a period of approximately one year, unless their Heads of State decided otherwise. In the absence of a political settlement of the dispute, the two parties further undertook to submit the dispute to the International Court of Justice (ICJ). After several rounds of inconclusive talks between senior officials of the two Governments, the Libyan Arab Jamahiriya and Chad respectively referred the dispute to ICJ in September 1990. II.

Neither the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR)1 – the agency which carries the primary UN mandate for statelessness – nor any other official source offer a figure for the number of stateless people in the country. Nevertheless, there are indications that statelessness may be a significant concern in Libya.

For 100 years the na- tionality of the area has been disputed, and it was not until fairly recently that the quarrelling parties agreed to a peaceful settlement of the border dispute by the International Court of Justice (I.C.J.).2 The question arises, why the fuss over an area with land of few in- habitants,3 where nothing grows?4 The answer lies primarily in the re- gion's strategic importance.' In addition, the Aouzou Strip is rich in resources of uranium and phosphates which have not yet been exploited.6 Chad and Libya have competing legal claims to the region.
