March-September 2012 N°39 SAHEL AND WEST AFRICA Club MAR-SEPT 2012 Secretariat THE SAHEL AND WEST AFRICA CLUB SECRETARIAT’S NEWSLETTER IN THIS ISSUE DIRECTOR’S EDITORIAL SECURITY AND DEVELOPMENT nne de Lattre, Founder and for many years Director of the “Club du Sahel”, left us during the heart of the Dialogue on the Security-Development Nexus A summer. Her death provoked a wave of emotions within a large community of friends. To each she leaves a special heritage. Northern Mali at a glance To all and to West Africa, she leaves the Club – this particular Viewpoint by Malian Ambassador Touré space for dialogue and co-operation. Anne initiated the creation of the “Club du Sahel” in 1976 because she was convinced that the FOOD SECURITY international community could not hold West African leaders welcome an indifferent gaze to the terrible dramas the AGIR Initiative and droughts of 1973-74.

STRATEGIC ORIENTATIONS The Colloquium on the Security-Development Nexus, organised The Strategy and Policy Group (SPG) in June at the margin of the SWAC Strategy and Policy Group reviews the Club’s work orientations meeting, illustrated the complexity of the current situation. It provided a timely opportunity to point out some, in my view, PUBLICATIONS critically important messages. The most important one is probably that the scale of the quest for solutions – the spatial Key lessons from the Colloquium scale as well as time scale - must be equal to the scale of the on the Security-Development Nexus problem.

Ils permettent de parcourir l’aventure du Club, jusqu’à ses évolutions récentes, évoquant également les autres engagements d’Anne de Lattre après son départ de la direction du Club en 1988. Grâce à sa pugnacité, son imagination et son sens aigu des relations publiques, Anne de Lattre joua un rôle déterminant dans la création du Club du Sahel, construction d’exception qu’elle bâtit avec ardeur à l’image des valeurs qui l’ani- maient : liberté d’expression, ouverture aux autres et aux idées nouvelles, recherche des faits, anticipation, persévérance… Associant les qualités d’une petite entreprise engagée à celles d’une organisation internationale, l’OCDE, le Club fut, et demeure, une construction très originale...

  • Operation Serval. Analyzing the French Strategy Against Jihadists in Mali
    ASPJ Africa & Francophonie - 3rd Quarter 2015 Operation Serval Analyzing the French Strategy against Jihadists in Mali LT COL STÉPHANE SPET, FRENCH AIR FORCE* imilar to the events that occurred two years earlier in Benghazi, the crews of the four Mirage 2000Ds that took off on the evening of 11 January 2013 from Chad inbound for Kona in central Mali knew that they were about to conduct a mis- sion that needed to stop the jihadist offensive to secure Bamako, the capital of Mali, and its population. This time, they were not alone because French special forces Swere already on the battlefield, ready to bring their firepower to bear. French military forces intended to prevent jihadist fighters from creating a caliphate in Mali. They also knew that suppressing any jihadist activity there would be another challenge—a more political one intended to remove the arrows from the jihadists’ hands. By answering the call for assistance from the Malian president to prevent jihadists from raiding Bamako and creating a radical Islamist state, French president François Hollande consented to engage his country in the Sahel to fight jihadists. Within a week, Operation Serval had put together a joint force that stopped the jihadist offensive and retook the initiative. Within two months, the French-led coalition had liberated the en- tire Malian territory after destruction of jihadist strongholds in the Adrar des Ifoghas by displaying a strategy that surprised both the coalition’s enemies and its allies. On 31 July 2014, this first chapter of the war on terror in the Sahel officially closed with a victory and the attainment of all objectives at that time.

  • A Rediscovered Journey Into the Past by GOTTFRIED O. RIECK
    AFRICA A rediscovered journey into the past by GOTTFRIED O. RIECK AFRICA A rediscovered journey into the past by GOTTFRIED O. RIECK Foreword Tis book is dedicated to my wife Sibylle, whom I had lef home alone for two months shortly afer our honey- moon to travel through Africa. I thought this trip was too dangerous to get a young woman into areas that had not yet been explored. Very soon I realized that my decision was perfectly right because quite ofen we were in dangerous situations, which we were only able to manage with luck and outside help. Te book was written to document a journey that would no longer be possible today. Te manuscript consists of travel and diary notes that I used to write every day addressing them to my wife to let her participate in this incredible expedition albeit indirectly. Unfortunately, those notes could not be found for a long time. But afer two decades they were rediscovered al- lowing the completion of a book about that extraordinary adventure. I must admit this trip had changed me and I returned back home mature and balanced man. With the beneft of hindsight I should say it was a daily give and take, but it was worth the efort.
