Violence in Senegal: the government and the opposition blame each other. After the violent demonstrations of recent days in Senegal, the country is preparing to experience a new day of mobilization on Tuesday.
Three people have died since Friday during protests in different regions of the country. While several opposition forces and civil society movements accuse the government of authoritarian drift and excessive use of force, the government poses on the contrary as a defender of democracy and public order. The Aar Sunu Election platform, bringing together several civil society organizations, called for a large peaceful and silent march in Dakar.
